Chapter 40: Preparing for the Future

After Lin Wen left, after walking a short distance of dozens of steps, Bai Ling's home was reached.

"Here, this is my home!" Bai Ling'er stretched out her hand and introduced in a light voice.

Following the guidance of Bai Ling'er's arm, the wide door plaque came into Xiao'an's sight, and the distance was so close that it could be seen at a glance that it was made of a very hard piece of wood. In the center of the plaque are engraved the two big characters "Baifu", as if they have been dyed with gold lacquer, which is a little dazzling. Looking further down, the two vermilion doors are also made of extremely fine materials, the façade is smooth and flat, and it also shines with delicate light. The pair of brass rings on the door are also exquisitely made, shining golden in the sunlight.

And near the entrance of the street, there are two huge stone lions, the carvings of the stone lions are lifelike, especially the pair of angry eyes, which makes people feel that these two lions seem to be able to pounce immediately. Between the two stone lions, there are several steps, which are paved with smooth and delicate marble.

Looking at the façade in front of him in a daze, in addition to being amazed in his heart, Xiao An can basically be sure that this is a big family.

"Why are you stunned, let's go!" Bai Ling'er laughed.

"Oh. Xiao An was slightly stunned, relieved himself, and followed Bai Ling'er up the steps.

Bai Ling'er knocked on the copper ring on the door, and the hard door panel made a sonorous and powerful "dong dong" sound under the knock of the copper ring. After the sound, the two doors slowly opened.

"Miss, you're back. A small person's head peeked out from the door, and he bowed politely to Bai Ling'er and greeted him. With Bai Ling'er entering, the next person saw Xiao An behind Bai Ling'er, and also smiled politely.

Walking into Baifu and looking at the prosperity in his eyes, Xiao'an was not only amazed but also amazed. Compared to the environment I used to spend in the mountains, it was a difference between heaven and earth.

Bai Ling'er, who was in an anxious mood, walked straight to the living room, and saw that there was no one in the living room, so she shouted: "Mother, I'm back!"

"Xiao An, sit down!" Bai Ling'er greeted excitedly.

Kogishi sat down on a chair with a slight strangeness. The big red chair is carved with dragons and phoenixes, which is both auspicious and honorable. On three sides of the living room, these luxurious chairs surround you. And on the floor in the center of the hall, there is a soft and splendid carpet.

Although everything here in front of him is very luxurious, in Xiao Kishi's heart, he is still more accustomed to the simple environment.

Looking at the ground in a daze, Xiao An's whole body felt a little uncomfortable. "In such an environment, if something goes wrong, I'm afraid it's humiliating. Xiao An thought that Ling'er's mother would come over soon, and her palms couldn't help but sweat a little.

"Childe, please use tea. A servant brought a bowl of tea and gently placed it in Xiao An's hand.

Under Bai Ling'er's shout, a middle-aged woman in an elegant long skirt walked out eagerly, this was Bai Linger's mother.

"Mother" saw her mother coming, Bai Ling'er shouted in a somewhat embarrassed voice.

"Ling'er" Ling'er's mother also shouted lovingly, and after hugging her daughter, her eyes turned to Xiao An.

When Xiao An saw Ling'er's mother come out, she couldn't help but stand up from the chair, her hands and feet were a little nervous, and she was waiting to say hello to Ling'er's mother.

"This is," Ling'er's mother asked softly with a smile on her face.

"Hello, aunt, my name is Xiao'an. Xiao An nodded hurriedly, with a smile on his face.

"Mother, Xiao'an is my friend. Bai Ling'er pulled her mother to sit down and said happily.

"Oh, okay, by the way, what's Xiao An's surname?" out of a woman's nature, Bai Ling'er's mother inquired in a harmonious voice.

"By the way, I don't know what your surname is?" was reminded by her mother, Bai Ling'er suddenly realized that she only knew that his name was Xiao'an, and she hadn't asked his surname yet.

"I" helpless Xiao An had to shake his head. Under the searching eyes of Bai Linger and her mother, Xiao An briefly explained her situation to the mother and daughter.

"Ah, Xiao'an, it turns out that you are an orphan?" Bai Ling'er said in surprise.

"What a poor child" Ling'er's mother also shook her head, the corners of her mouth flashed a little bitterness, and her eyes were full of pity.

Xiao An, who has no parents since he was a child, has long been used to it, and now when he sees Ling'er's mother like this, he can only smile slightly.

"By the way, Ling'er, how did you and Xiao An meet?" Ling'er's mother asked Ling'er as she shifted away from her slightly heavy emotions.

"We met at a pier on the island, at that time," Bai Linger told her mother in detail about the experience of knowing Xiaoan.

When she heard that Xiao'an, who was a porter, was hit by a cargo box, Ling'er's mother also took a breath of cool air.

"It's a long journey, let's have a cup of tea, and you don't have to be restrained here. Ling'er's mother looked at Xiao An with kind eyes and said softly.

"That's it, my mother is right, when you get to my house, you don't have to be restrained, you can just say what you want to eat and drink!" Bai Ling'er added, and Ling'er's mother also nodded towards Xiao An.

"By the way, Ling'er, why did you come back so early this time? Did you come back with Boss Huo?"

"Mother, you don't know what to do, that Boss Huo is bad" Bai Ling'er was angry and explained to her mother about her being tied up, but she didn't mention the matter of Yu Xiao, but covered it up with other things. At the beginning, he said that he wanted to go out, and the reason he told his parents was to learn to do business, and at this time, it was inconvenient for Ling'er to tell the truth about deceiving her mother.

"I really can't imagine that Boss Huo is such a person" Ling'er's mother said in a calm tone, but her face was also a little angry.

"Mother, if Xiao An hadn't saved me, I'm afraid now" Bai Ling'er said in a sticky voice.

Ling'er's mother immediately blocked Ling'er's mouth and prevented her from saying unlucky things.

"Xiao'an, thank you so much for saving us Ling'er" Ling'er's mother smiled kindly, and her eyes were full of gratitude.

"Nothing. In fact, it was mainly the dragon that saved Ling'er and me. Kogan said slightly.

"Oh, dragon?" In addition to surprise, Ling'er's mother's eyes were more puzzled.

"Oh, mother, I forgot to tell you about the capsizing. Bai Linger leisurely told her mother about the sailboat.

After listening to the narration, Ling'er's mother breathed a long sigh of relief and sighed: "This is really the blessing of the Buddha, and my mother will burn more incense in the future." ”

"By the way, mother, where is my father?Why isn't he at home?" After talking for so long, Bai Ling'er didn't see her father come out, so she couldn't help asking.

"Alas," Ling'er's mother sighed lightly and said, "How can your father have spare time to stay at home, and he has endless affairs all day long. ”

"Oh. Mother, Xiao'an wants to find a job in Tianjingcheng, my dad is back, you tell him. Regarding Xiao'an's work, Bai Ling'er did not forget, and then took her mother's arm and said softly: "Try to find a better one." ”

"Don't worry, Xiao'an saved Ling'er, and her mother knows the truth. Ling'er's mother looked at her daughter lovingly, then turned to Xiao An and said, "Xiao An, what kind of work do you like?"

In Xiao An's heart, he is satisfied with having a job with reasonable pay, and as for what kind of job he has, Xiao Yi has never thought about being able to choose, so he has never thought about what to do. He thinks about choosing his own job, not picking his own job. Now that Ling'er's mother asked like this, Xiao An felt a little flattered.

"Whatever, as long as you can support yourself" Kogishi scratched his head, a little wooden.
