Chapter 688: Revisiting the White Mansion
Although Dong Qingyun and Chen Xiaofu have the same doubts, they are not thinking about each other.
Dong Qingyun was thinking about the massacre last night, his brows were tightly locked, and his face was solemn.
And Chen Xiaofu was thinking about whether Liu Ruyan and Brother Shi had anything happened last night......
But what Brother Shi wants to say has nothing to do with what the two of them think!
"Last night, I went home with Miss Liu and met a white girl. It's the granddaughter of the great Confucian of the day......"
That's right, Brother Shi weighed it for a long time, and finally decided to use Bai Qinghe's incident as an excuse!
"How can this be...... Knowing that Mr. Bai doesn't like officialdom, he has been in Jinling for so long, and he hasn't seen him...... This kind of thing happened! ”
Although Brother Shi's words made Dong Qingyun feel at ease, after hearing it, he couldn't help but feel regret...... Regardless of his position, Bai Qinghe still admires him.
"Is that because of that? How do I feel...... It's not that simple, is it? ”
But Chen Xiaofu frowned, and she didn't know if it was because of the big gap with what she wanted in her heart, or because of a woman's intuition...... She was still a little unconvinced.
"That's the way it is! Today, I have also entrusted a friend to see Mr. Bai Lao, and I will know the specific result in three days......" Brother Shi explained again.
"That's the way it is, if you don't believe it, you can wait for Miss Liu to wake up, you go and ask her!" After finishing speaking, seeing that Chen Xiaofu was still full of suspicion, he added another sentence.
"Of course I'll ask! But Ruyan's girl has never been in Jinling, so you didn't accompany her around the city yesterday? ”
The words have been said here, Chen Xiaofu didn't believe it and there was no way, so he could only ask in another way.
"Huh?" I don't know why Chen Xiaofu asked like this, Brother Shi heard it, and couldn't help but look at her suspiciously.
"Ahh I handed you Ruyan yesterday because I wanted you to accompany her to relax, you kid, you are really an elm head! ”
Seeing Brother Shi's reaction, Chen Xiaofu subconsciously thought that he hadn't done it, and said with some disappointment......
"Of course I did! I took Miss Liu for supper last night, and now I still owe the money to the shopkeeper! If it's convenient, you'd better reimburse it, aunt. ”
understood what it meant, and heard that there was something in her tone that she meant to "note orphans", Brother Shi retorted. In the end, he even wanted to extort Chen Xiaofu's silver......
"I don't know if the man surnamed Lu has found Guo Renjie, otherwise...... In my heart, I have really become a fraud! ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but think of what happened last night, and secretly said a word in his heart.
"Humph! That's pretty much it! But it's your boy's honor to invite my daughter to dinner, and I won't repay this money! ”
After hearing Brother Shi say this, Chen Xiaofu showed a satisfied smile, nodded and finished speaking, and left straight away......
Uncanny! Looking at Chen Xiaofu's reaction, Brother Shi couldn't help but have these two words in his heart.
"Uncle Dong, what's wrong with Auntie?"
Seeing him walk away, Brother Shi asked Dong Qingyun again.
"Nothing! She may be worried! It's actually a good idea to let smoke go away......"
Dong Qingyun shook his head, expressing his approval of his wife's behavior.
"Is that so?"
After listening to Dong Qingyun's words, Brother Shi still had some doubts. Then he shook his head, turned to look at Dong Qingyun, and said with a serious face: "Uncle Dong, I told you about Mr. Bai today, but don't go to see him!" If the White Girl knew, I wouldn't be able to explain it! ”
"This ......"
Dong Qingyun is really going to see Bai Qinghe, although the two have no friendship, but if Bai Qinghe, the great Confucian of the world, falls like this, it is still a little regrettable!
So when I heard Brother Shi's words, I was a little embarrassed......
"To tell you the truth, even if you go, you won't see Mr. Bai. Because I have taken him elsewhere, and I am now healing...... So you'd better not go. Brother Shi spoke again to persuade him.
"Alright! I hope Mr. Bai can be fine...... Since the white girl has a lot to do with you, you can help with it! ”
Hearing Brother Shi say this, Dong Qingyun could only nod helplessly.
"Related?" Regarding Dong Qingyun's words, Brother Shi was very dissatisfied. muttered to himself, this is the governor's mansion without looking back......
Bai Suzhen should be very worried now, right? Maybe...... I should go and talk to her.
Brother Shi, who was originally very sleepy, talked to Dong Qingyun and Chen Xiaofu after a while, and he was no longer sleepy at this time. Thinking like this in his heart, he decided to go to Baifu again.
In fact, Bai Suzhen's fatigue is much more than that of Brother Shi and others. From Hangzhou to Jinling, she hasn't slept a single night......
Brother Shi and Baihua took Bai Qinghe away before, and when she returned to the courtyard, she had been waiting in the hall, hoping that Brother Shi would come back and tell her about the situation.
But after waiting for a long time, I just didn't wait for Brother Shi to come back. Sitting on the chair, she fell asleep on the table unconsciously......
When several maids of the Bai family saw this, it was not easy to wake her up for a while. My own young lady is so tired, this will finally have a chance to rest, if I wake her up, I am afraid that I will not sleep again.
But if you don't wake up and sleep in the hall, it's a little inappropriate, and it's easy to catch a cold......
In desperation, a few maids found clothes, covered her, and closed the door of the hall.
Bai Suzhen's sleep was also because she was really sleepy, so she slept soundly. So much so that when Brother Shi came, she hadn't woken up yet.
"Miss is asleep inside, do you want me to go in and wake her up?"
"No, you don't! I'll wait here! ”
sent away the two maids at the door of the hall, but Brother Shi did not stand at the door and wait as he said...... Instead, he pushed open the door and walked in.
Bai Suzhen was lying sideways on the Eight Immortals table in the hall, and the Taishi chair she was sitting on was a little too wide. She was so thin that she looked like she was going to fall off at any moment......
With the sound of slight breathing, her body was trembling, and in the corners of her eyes, there were tears that had not dried up......
He glanced with bated breath, but Brother Shi didn't speak. When he opened the door, he noticed a breeze blowing in, so he turned around again and tiptoed the door back shut......
