Glory all the way

Chapter 286 Bai Ling
"Father, mother, big brother-in-law, I'm here to see you."

With a smile all over her face, the noble lady waved her hands at the servants following her, signaling them to wait outside the door, and walked in familiarly.

It was indeed Bai Ling.

"What are you here for?"

In front of the wrong body, Li Dazhuang instantly recovered the plain face in front of outsiders, and the words he said were naturally cold, without a trace of warmth.

In the past, at this moment, Bai Ling would have definitely raised her voice to call the housekeeper, dragged this "short-sighted slave" out and beat him with dozens of sticks, so that he could take a good look at the majesty of her young mistress of the Sun family.

But time has changed, and now Li Dazhuang is a well-known Li Guanshi. Even the old man of the Sun family would greet him with a smile, let alone Bai Ling, who depends on his parents-in-law's face.

The smile on Bai Ling's face became softer, "Brother-in-law, look at what you said. I'll come and see my parents, you and eldest sister, oh, yes, there's also Juan'er and Xiao Shitou."

As she said that, Bai Ling asked in surprise, as if she had just seen Bai Yingluo, "Brother-in-law, this is the head of your and sister's house, right?"

Although she didn't like Bai Ling, but she mentioned Bai Yingluo, if she didn't respond, it would be disrespectful to Bai Yingluo, so Li Dazhuang nodded.

Obviously already knew Bai Yingluo's identity, Bai Ling didn't wait for Li Dazhuang's introduction, she stepped forward and bowed gracefully, and said softly, "Sun Baishi, a commoner's woman, has met Mrs. Du and Mrs. Jin'an."

After finishing speaking, Bai Ling got up and turned her head to wave to Sun Fu who was standing outside the door and poking his head frequently.

Six maidservants filed in, all holding a tray in their hands.

On the tray, there are pairs of red gold walking sticks, silk flower pearl hairpins that are new in the capital, exquisitely crafted children's clothes, hats, shoes and socks, and a black stone paperweight that is not ordinary at first sight.

The jewelry is all for Bai Yingluo, the children's clothes, hats, shoes and socks belong to a brother, and the paperweight is naturally intended for Du Xuan.

Bai Ling came here, it can be seen that she has put in a lot of effort to prepare.

Seeing that everyone in the courtyard was looking at her calmly, Bai Ling's heart skipped a beat, but her face became calmer. She turned her head to look at Bai Yingluo and said with a smile, "Mrs. Du, the woman is Xiuniang's younger sister, thanks to you The support and care for my sister is really too hasty this time, otherwise, we will definitely treat you well. Knowing that you are leaving, the mistress has come here to send us a little heart, please accept it."

That year in Baijiazhuang, Bai Ling left a bad impression on Bai Yingluo, and Bai Ling obviously didn't remember seeing Bai Yingluo anymore.

After these words, those who don't know the truth will definitely think that she and Sister Baixiu are deeply in love.

As for what Bai Ling planned, Bai Yingluo knew it well.

"Madam Sun, what is your business here?"

Bai Yingluo smiled, and looked back at Bai Xiu, but she saw a little apologetic on her face, presumably because she felt guilty because Bai Ling blocked her from starting.

"This……"

Seeing that Bai Yingluo's gaze didn't linger on the gifts she had prepared for long, Bai Ling knew that those gifts would not catch Bai Yingluo's eyes at all, and she became more and more convinced that the rumors from the villagers about the wealth of Master Bai Xiu's family were true.

I also thought that Bai Xiu and Li Dazhuang still remembered that they were always unwilling to forgive themselves. Now that Bai Yingluo is here, they definitely dare not make trouble with themselves in front of Bai Yingluo. , Thinking of this, Bai Ling became more and more determined to ease the relationship with Bai Xiu today.

"The folk woman has two purposes here."

Fearing that Bai Yingluo would not have the patience to listen to her own words, Bai Ling tried her best to make her words as tactful as possible, with a little sadness on her face, and she said in a somewhat downcast voice: "The common people's women were ignorant when they were young, and they made their parents and elder sisters feel bad for the people. The woman is worried. After so many years, the relationship has been estranged. This matter, the woman has been brooding in her heart, but she has never known how to speak. One of the reasons for coming here today is to ask Madam to be a witness."

After finishing speaking, Bai Ling turned around and went to the two elders of the Bai family, knelt down and kowtowed: "Father, mother, my daughter is wrong. She has been unfilial these past few years. Please forgive her. From now on, she is willing to respect you well. Please trust me again and give me this chance to make amends."

There was a trace of hesitation on the face of the uncle of the Bai family, and the aunt of the Bai family had already turned around and wiped away her tears, as if remembering the sad things in the past.

Seeing that the elders of the Bai family were silent, Bai Ling kowtowed.

Looking up again, he saw the two elders of the Bai family looking at Bai Xiu hesitantly, and Bai Ling seemed to have realized it all at once.

Turning around and kowtowing to Bai Xiu, Bai Ling raised her voice and said, "Sister, Ling'er knows she was wrong, please forgive me."

Why Bai Ling behaved like this, other people don't understand, but Bai Xiu knows it clearly in her heart, but, as Bai Ling guessed, in front of Bai Yingluo, Bai Xiu really didn't dare to explode on the spot.

"People often say that family ugliness should not be publicized. If you sincerely beg your parents for forgiveness, just look at your future performance. You don't need to do such false deeds. Get up."

Accusing Bai Ling cryptically, Bai Xiu spoke impatiently.

Seeing the anxiety in Bai Xiu's eyes, Bai Ling secretly rejoiced, sobbing and begging: "Sister, Ling'er knows she's wrong, she knows she's wrong, please forgive me, I will be filial to my father and mother in the future."

The expression on her face became more and more sincere, and Bai Ling became more merciless when she kowtowed again. After a while, a group of red marks appeared on her forehead.

Bai Xiu froze in place, looking at Bai Ling in disbelief.

This is the younger sister who kept apologizing and begging for forgiveness from herself and her parents, the younger sister who made her unable to step down in front of her master, but this kind of Bai Ling made Bai Xiu feel even more strange. The noble lady who puts her in the eye and clamors that she has no place in Baijiazhuang.

At this moment, to everyone, Bai Yingluo is a bystander, but no one knows how uncomfortable Bai Yingluo feels in her heart, and she also feels the embarrassment in Bai Xiu's heart.

Is this the second sister who genuinely cared for her even though she looked cold in her previous life?
It turns out that things are different and people are different, it is really a very cruel word.

Feeling helpless in her heart, Bai Yingluo looked up at Bai Xiu and said, "Xiu Niang, this is a matter for your family. You can handle it yourself. I won't stay any longer. I'm leaving for Beijing now."

Seeing that there was no trace of resentment in Bai Yingluo's eyes, Bai Xiu let out a sigh of relief.

Apologetically leaning over to give Bai Yingluo a blessing, Bai Xiu said in a low voice: "Today is all the servant's fault. I disturbed the madam and the young master. The slave is bound to be punished. Please punish me."

Bai Yingluo shook her head in relief, "Every family has scriptures that are hard to recite, how can I blame you? Besides, going through more of these things will do you more good than harm, so I'm happy to see it succeed. .”

Smiling, Bai Yingluo raised her foot to leave, but just as she took a step, Bai Ling turned around and stopped her.

Kowtowing her head, Bai Ling begged: "Ma'am, there is a long story about the affairs of the women's house, and it will not be clear for a while, but the ancients often say that it is not too late to make up for it. Witness, give the women a chance to pay off their crimes. Madame, please..."

Dodging Bai Ling's move to grab her skirt, Bai Yingluo glared at her with a downcast face, and then, Liu Ying stepped forward and scolded angrily, "If you weren't Xiuniang's younger sister, you wouldn't even be here today! You can't even get in through this gate, so don't make an inch here. Let me tell you, if Xiuniang recognizes you, the wife will give Xiuniang this face, but now that things are clear, are you trying to persecute my wife? It doesn't make sense .If you don’t get out of the way, I will order my servants to throw you out of the door. If you don’t believe me, you can block the way and try.”

Although Liuying's words were a bit threatening, Bai Ling's heart suddenly became cold when she saw Bai Yingluo who was sullen and Bai Xiu who didn't even look at her.

Muttering in her mouth, she still didn't say anything after all, Bai Ling looked at the two elders of the Bai family begging for help.

The two elders of the Bai family were extremely troubled, thinking about what Bai Xiu had explained, bit their lips lightly and turned their heads away.

Bai Ling couldn't hide her disappointment on her face.

When she came back to her senses, Bai Yingluo had already been sent out by Bai Xiu and Li Dazhuang, surrounded by the two elders of the Bai family.

In the courtyard, there was only Bai Ling who was kneeling in a daze, and a little maid staring at her warily in the distance.

Standing up slowly, patting the dust on the skirt, Bai Ling's heart was spinning rapidly, thinking about the countermeasures. Today, she has stepped on her face under the soles of her feet under the eyes of everyone. If she fails to achieve anything, then she will lose face for nothing. ?

Before he could think of a way, he heard the sound of wheels rolling, and then Bai Xiu and Li Dazhuang entered the door with the help of the two elders of the Bai family.

"You go back..."

Talking to Bai Ling in a cold voice, Bai Xiu yanked hard on the impatient mother.

"Bai Xiu..."

Originally bearing the burden of humiliation, after hearing Bai Xiu's cold words without a trace of warmth, she burst into infinite anger instantly, shouting sharply, Bai Ling's eyes seemed to burst into flames, "Bai Xiu, don't you It's too deceiving..."

"What? Can't pretend anymore?"

She gave Li Dazhuang a wink and asked him to take his parents back to the house, Bai Xiu turned her head and said with a sneer: "When you kowtowed just now, you pretended to be pretty, why, when Madam went out, you showed your true colors? "

"Bai Xiu, I respect you as my eldest sister, and I also know that it was indeed my fault in the past, so I came here on purpose to apologize. Don't bully me too much."

The handkerchief in Bai Ling's hand was already wrinkled and lost its shape. Looking at Bai Xiu who was aloof and didn't care about talking to her, Bai Ling felt a little unreal.

In Bai Ling's impression, Bai Xiu should be just a village girl who can endure hardships and stand hard work but can't bear the slightest grievance. Since when did she have such a shrewd appearance?

"I'm deceiving people too much? Bai Ling, ask yourself, what is your purpose for coming this time, and you can say this again."

With sarcasm on her lips, Bai Xiu said in a deep voice: "If you really know your mistake, you don't need to apologize in such a big way. As long as you treat your parents well and honor them, our family will always be like you. It used to be such a beautiful reunion. But are you? From the very beginning, you have your own calculations, you want to use me to climb up to the madam, the Zhuangyuan mansion and Jing'anhou mansion, so that the Sun mansion can continue to dominate here It's all good, you treat everyone else as a fool, can't you see your little thoughts? It's ridiculous."

Saying that, Bai Xiu turned her head to look at the mother-in-law behind her and said, "Send Mrs. Sun out..."
