Chapter 556: The Second Brother's Classmate Is Here Again
Bai Zepei glanced at his family a little apologetically, and this time he brought a group of classmates back without saying hello, and he had to trouble his family again.
Lin Ping'er welcomed Bai Zepei's classmates to come over to play, she hoped that Bai Zepei would make a few more friends, but Du Zhongshu also came, so she couldn't welcome it.
Before, it was discussed not to let Du Zhongshu enter the door, but now that Bai Zepei is bringing his classmates together, it's not good to just let Du Zhongshu enter the door?
The other is the narrow-minded Fu Shengqing, the Bai family knows that he always makes trouble with Bai Zepei intentionally or unintentionally, so naturally he is not very welcome, but like Du Zhongshu, he still has to live on face.
Seeing that this was the case, Bai Ruozhu hurriedly glanced at her mother, and then said with a smile: "The second brother is here with his classmates, hurry up and go to the hall to sit." ”
It was Qin Kaichang who spoke this time, he took two paper bags and handed them to Lin Ping'er, and said, "Aunt Bai, this is the winter melon strips and white melon seeds that my mother made herself, they are not worth a few dollars, this is the New Year soon, I want to give them to you to taste." ”
Bai Zepei said beside him: "Brother Qin brought it to me in the academy, and Brother Fu mentioned that he personally came to the door to give it to my mother, and we can get together again before the New Year." ”
Qin Kaichang said embarrassedly: "So I'm here to bother you again." ”
Lin Ping'er took the things he handed over, and said with a smile: "You are too polite, hurry up and sit in the house, I accepted this gift, and thank you for me." ”
Several other people also hurriedly sent the things up, Lin Ping'er couldn't finish it, Bai Ruozhu held the child again, and Fang Guizhi helped pick up the things and took them to the stove room.
Bai Ruozhu took a closer look, Qin Kaichang sent home-made things, and the others should have bought them in the city temporarily, for fear that it would not look good to come empty-handed, among them, Du Zhongshu and Fu Shengqing gave the highest price, Du Zhongshu is a box of fine tea, and Fu Shengqing is a ginseng.
Fortunately, the ginseng is not coarse, and it is not many years, otherwise Bai Ruozhu would not dare to let her mother accept it.
Seeing this, Bai Ruozhu could probably guess what was going on, probably Qin Kaichang had a meal at the Bai family, and felt very embarrassed, and brought something over to the family during the New Year, so he thought about sending some gifts to the Bai family.
As a result, when he gave things to Bai Zepei, Fu Shengqing coaxed him next to him, saying that everyone would go over together and send some things or something, and he had money in his own family, so he bought a ginseng and put it on display.
Bai Ruozhu pouted secretly, but in the end, it was the second brother's classmate, and they all said that they should not offend the villain, and this kind of person still had to get by in terms of face.
Bai Zepei led a group of people to talk in the hall, Bai Ruozhu directly asked Fang Guizhi to send a tea set over, and asked her second brother to cook tea for everyone, who knew that Bai Zepei looked at it and said: "Forget it today, I am a little angry, and I still want to drink the herbal tea accompanied by my little sister." ”
"Yes, that herbal tea is good, I also want to drink herbal tea. Zhu Kaifu, who was slightly weaker, also said.
Everyone else agreed, and even Fu Shengqing didn't chirp anymore, so Fang Guizhi took the tea set and learned from Bai Ruozhu.
Bai Ruozhu had already heard it in the stove room, so he asked Fang Guizhi to make a cup of herbal tea for them, and asked Fang Guizhi to bring it over.
She began to get busy here, Lin Ping'er walked into the stove room with her feet and asked if she still needed to buy any ingredients, but was driven out by Bai Ruozhu and said, "Mother, don't worry about it, beware of choking my son with oil smoke." ”
Lin Ping'er was so amused by her that she couldn't cry or laugh, so she had to hug her and kick out, but because she was unhappy with Du Zhongshu, she didn't go to the hall, so she simply went to Bai Ruozhu's house to coax the child to sleep.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Bai Ruozhu and Fang Guizhi brought the food on a plate, this time Fu Shengqing didn't pick any thorns, and he didn't even look at him with contempt, Bai Ruozhu muttered in his heart, this second place has been figured out?
It's good to figure it out, everyone is not a grudge that can't be overcome, so why bother?
She and Guizhi served soup and rice to no one, and Du Zhongshu didn't know what to do when he received the meal, so his fingertips crossed Bai Ruozhu's fingertips, Bai Ruozhu was a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't come out, and when he looked at Du Zhongshu again, his face was flushed.
"Miss Bai is really a good craft, Zepei, it's really enviable that you have such a capable sister. Fu Shengqing suddenly spoke, not to mention Bai Ruozhu, even Bai Zepei's eyes showed some surprise.
Bai Ruozhu didn't want to ignore the guests, so he had to say politely: "Fu Gongzi praised it falsely, but it was just some home-cooked food, and it couldn't be put on the table." ”
"I'd like to have this kind of oral administration, but unfortunately I don't have this blessing. Fu Shengqing laughed and said, but he smiled a little abruptly, especially when everyone else didn't laugh.
He didn't think it was inappropriate, he looked at Bai Zepei and asked, "I heard about Miss Bai, I don't know if Miss Bai has any plans to remarry?"
As soon as he said this, Bai Zepei's face turned cold, and Bai Ruozhu's face also fell.
Qin Kaichang saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly came out to play a round, saying, "Brother Fu, hurry up and eat the vegetables, it won't taste good if it's cold." ”
Bai Zepei glanced at Du Zhongshu, and said in his heart that Fu Shengqing wanted to help Du Zhongshu talk to the matchmaker, and at this moment, Du Zhongshu was looking at Bai Ruozhu, his expression was a little sluggish.
Bai Ruozhu bowed generously to Fu Shengqing and said: "It is said that the first marriage is from relatives, and then marriage is from yourself, but I don't have this plan, but fortunately, my father and mother at home can also support me, so I don't have to worry about my son." ”
Fu Shengqing's eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze was a little colder, but Wang Junzhi next to him broke the deadlock with a smile, "My lady's craftsmanship is not good, if I have time to let her learn from the white girl one day." ”
Bai Ruozhu knew that it was just a kind word, so she politely agreed, and then she blessed everyone and said that she would go down to eat.
Fu Shengqing's eyes kept falling on her back and didn't leave, not knowing what to think again.
In the stove room, Fang Guizhi quietly took a sip and said dissatisfiedly: "That Fu Shengqing is really annoying. ”
Bai Ruozhu made a silent gesture at her, and then pricked up his ears to listen to the situation in the hall.
Everyone was very satisfied with this meal, because there was no class in the afternoon, so everyone drank a few glasses, Fu Shengqing's wine strength was not good, and it was a little higher soon, he patted Qin Kaichang's shoulder and said: "Kaichang, you have no place to live during the New Year, so go to my house, it's better than you going to the restaurant to be a buddy for people, why are you also a student of the Beiyu Academy, and it's not ashamed?"
Qin Kaichang coughed twice in embarrassment, and said, "Thank you Brother Fu for your concern, I don't want to bother you during the Chinese New Year, I can take care of food and accommodation in the restaurant, and I can save some living expenses for the coming year, which is also a good thing." ”
Bai Ruozhu heard it, this Qin Kaichang is similar to the work-study of modern college students, she thinks this is very good, what is there to be ashamed of making money by relying on her own skills?
