Glory all the way

Chapter 106
"Master Yao is back, sister Luo is busier than before, isn't she?"

Pointing to the armchair at the bottom for Bai Yingluo to sit on, Xue Shi asked kindly, although Bai Yingluo was worried in her heart, she didn't show it on her face, she nodded and smiled and replied: "Yes, otherwise Apart from being with my grandparents, I don’t know what to do. Now I listen to my master’s lectures on history books at noon, play the piano and play chess in the afternoon, or embroider. The time is easier to kill than before.”

After taking a sip of tea, Mrs. Xue waved her hand, signaling all the maids in the room to back down. Fang looked at Bai Yingluo and asked, "Recently, have you been doing any work?"

The question was naturally Bai Yingluo's embroidery work.

When she is free on weekdays, Bai Yingluo can embroider and tie nets. The most she does is naturally for old master Bai and old lady Bai. Every month or two, she also makes a pair of shoes and socks for Marquis Jing'an and Mrs. Xue .

In addition, Bai Yingluo embroidered a few veils for herself, or tied a few ties to give jade to her younger brothers and sisters. These are small tasks, which are not wasteful and pass the time. Bai Yingluo is very contented. happy.

But at this moment, hearing Xue's question, Bai Yingluo's heart suddenly remembered the tricks that she had described to Bai Yingyun.

Pretending to be ignorant, Bai Yingluo counted out the embroidery work she had done in the past few days. They were nothing more than soft shoes for Mrs. Bai, and small clothes for Brother Kun. There were a few other pieces for Bai Yingping. child's.

Knowing this, Xue immediately felt that Bai Yingluo had a heart, and the expression on her face became softer.

"Auntie, something must have happened, you can tell Luo'er directly."

Ever since she started making shoes and socks for the Marquis of Jingan and the Xue family, the Xue family loved Bai Yingluo even more, and Bai Yingluo was no longer as cautious as before, and she was a little more dependent on her daughter's family. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected joy , so that Xue Shi, who no longer has children acting like a baby, is very useful.

At this moment, seeing Bai Yingluo's question, Xue Shi nodded, "Of course the eldest aunt believed you, but now the maids are talking nonsense, since I heard it, I must call you to ask clearly, If there really isn't such a thing, I don't have any scruples when I send it out, so as not to implicate you."

Hearing this, Bai Yingluo already knew it in her heart.

"Just now in Qing'an Hall, you also heard your third brother's words. The performance of Mr. Du in the academy seems to be somewhat different from what the old man said. However, this is Mr. Du's own business, and has nothing to do with us. It doesn't matter much. But at noon, I heard from a few maids in the yard that you once sent someone to deliver something to Mr. Du, is there such a thing?"

Xue didn't hide any more, and asked bluntly.

Bai Yingluo shook her head without hesitation, "Auntie, not to mention that Luo'er has no personal friendship with Mr. Du, if there is, doesn't Luo'er know how big a crime it is to give and receive privately?"

After all, Bai Yingluo's words became low, "Parents died young, so many years, only grandparents, uncles and aunts love Luo'er, if Luo'er does something like that, don't tell Jing Anhou Mansion's face is smeared, even grandmother and aunt will be implicated by Luo'er, how can Luo'er be so ignorant?"

I didn't have any doubts about Bai Yingluo in my heart, but thinking that old master Bai loved Du Xuan so much, and Bai Yingluo had lived with old master Bai and Mrs. Bai in the Zhuangzi for more than a month, if the two of them had any contact in private, I would Without clairvoyance and smooth ears, how can we have insight into everything?

That's why Xue called Bai Yingluo while no one was aware of it.

Now that Bai Yingluo said this, Xue Shi no longer had any doubts in her heart, so she hurriedly coaxed: "Silly boy, the eldest aunt will believe you, but you will be sure after asking, don't you know? Don't take it to heart. Go, huh? Auntie will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation."

Thanked Mrs. Xue, and said a few words with her, seeing that it was getting late, Bai Yingluo got up and left.

After walking a few steps, Bai Yingluo turned around and said with some hesitation on her face, "Auntie, a few days ago, Fifth Sister came to me and said that she wanted to embroider something, and asked me to draw some green bamboo flowers for her. look."

"Sister Yun?"

Knowing that what Bai Yingluo said was definitely not aimless, Xue Shi nodded slowly, and when Bai Yingluo left the room, she seemed to understand a little bit in her heart.

He called the maid who was close to him, and Mrs. Xue gave a few instructions in a low voice.

When they returned to Lanxin Pavilion, Liusu and Liuying had already stretched their necks and waited. When they saw Bai Yingluo coming in, they each felt relieved. When they learned the reason why Mrs. Xue wanted her to go there, their faces immediately changed. They are all a little upset.

Although Xue's words were cryptic, Bai Yingluo was certain in her heart that she must have something to do with Bai Yingyun and those few tricksters.

"Miss, Fifth Miss has a sinister heart. In the future, you have to pay more attention to what she says to you, otherwise, there may be some traps waiting for you in front of you."

After ordering the little maid to prepare hot water, Liusu came in and said angrily.

"This matter is not that simple. The people in the second bedroom know about the fact that my aunt is looking for me. I'm afraid they won't think of going there for the time being. In the past few days, you should also pay attention to it. Look at the Yunshui Pavilion There is no movement. The fifth sister is the most impatient, seeing that the third brother has mentioned Mr. Du in front of his grandfather today, she will not let it go if she doesn't see me slumped, so you should all be vigilant."

Walking all the way from Mingya Garden, the anger in Bai Yingluo's heart has almost been dissipated. At this moment, she can calmly think about the countermeasures.

Chen Xiang and the others responded in a deep voice, and did not ask any more questions, each was busy with the affairs in hand, waited for Bai Yingluo to take a bath and rested.

Early the next morning, when she entered the classroom again, she saw Bai Yingyun turning her head to look at her, scrutinizing her with eyes full of eyes. Bai Yingluo was angry in her heart, but pretended nothing happened on her face, and affectionately called "Fifth Sister". hello.

Until the end of a class, Bai Yingluo was still smiling and smiling. For a while, Bai Yingyun was a little suspicious, thinking that maybe she was thinking too much, and she didn't show her flaws in that matter.

For several days, Bai Yingluo just forgot what Xue Shi said that day, and treated Bai Yingyun as usual, and Bai Yingyun gradually let go of her heart.

July 25th is the monthly holiday of Qingsong Academy. When she got up early, Bai Yingluo went to Qing'an Hall to accompany old master Bai and old lady Bai to have breakfast. When she left the house, she saw the butler come in to send a message that Du Xuan had come to pay respects to the two elders.

Bai Yingluo paused in her heart, but she went to the classroom without any hesitation, but all morning, her mind was circling in Qing'an Hall, and she just wished she could go to Qing'an Hall after class as soon as possible.

It's time to finish class, Bai Yingluo returns to Qing'an Hall, Du Xuan has already left.

On the other hand, Old Master Bai had a faint smile on his face.

"Grandfather, is Mr. Du really dressed in brocade clothes?"

Pretending to be curious like a little girl, Bai Yingluo asked in a charming voice.

Stroking his beard and laughing, Old Master Bai jokingly said, "Why, Sister Luo is also concerned about Mr. Du?"

Her face turned red, and Bai Yingluo argued forcefully, "Isn't it because I saw the third brother's words that day and made my grandfather pay attention, so that Luo'er asked this question? Grandfather, please don't misinterpret my meaning..."

It is rare to see Bai Yingluo with such a cute and naive appearance, the old lady Bai smiled more and more heartily, and the old lady Bai took over the conversation and said: "Du Xuan said, after all, I am studying in Qingsong Academy now, although it is not that good. For comparison, but the dress and manners are not too casual, which has insulted the reputation of the academy, so a few new clothes were made. When your grandfather asked, Du Xuan made a big blush, thinking that we thought he was too Shabby, embarrassing to your grandfather."

With that said, the old lady Bai also laughed.

When the misunderstanding was resolved, Bai Yingluo's heart lightened immediately, and she couldn't help but said angrily: "Those people in the academy are really, they don't care about the books, they always know how to care about other people's clothes, and they are gossips. , It really insults the gentleness of scholars..."

This sentence indirectly brought Bai Jinju and Bai Jinxiao into it. Immediately, Bai Yingluo shrank her neck playfully. Seeing this, Old Master Bai and Old Lady Bai laughed without saying a word, but they also agreed with Bai Yingluo. Yingluo's words.

"Nowadays, there are really not many young people who are so determined and progressive..."

Sighing, Bai Yingluo turned her eyes around Bai Yingluo, and finally got up without saying anything, and left the Qing'an Hall. Behind her, Bai Yingluo jokingly said, "Grandmother, look, since I met Mr. Du , Grandfather must boast one or two words every day, Big Brother and the others must be very pleased when they hear it."

Although it was a joke, what Bai Yingluo said was the truth, and the old lady Bai smiled and nodded, "Isn't that right, I have told him many times, let him stop praising Mr. Du so much in front of your elder brothers, so that they won't be upset. It’s uncomfortable, but your grandfather said, don’t find someone to destroy their prestige, they always think that they are great young talents in the capital, hey, this is really getting older and more like children.”

Imitating the old master Bai's appearance and talking, the old lady Bai and Bai Yingluo laughed together.

After calming down again, the old lady Bai told Bai Yingluo all the things Du Xuan had said since she came. I have the intention of saying something for this.

Knowing that Du Xuan is now in the academy besides earnestly studying, he also has a part-time job of copying books, and can earn some pocket money for himself every month, Bai Yingluo is very happy for him.

After talking for a while, she remembered something, and the old lady Bai muttered to herself: "I don't know if Mr. Du is married. He came today. I can see that his clothes don't look like they were bought in a garment factory. It’s the subtleties of the sleeves and the belt, which took even more thought, such a good needlework can’t be done without caring people around.”

Hearing this, Bai Yingluo's heart skipped a beat.
