Bai Dalang went to the silver shop to buy jewelry according to his own mind, but Miss Cheng Er sat in the carriage but regretted it.
She grabbed the handkerchief and thought about it, and felt that she was too impulsive today.
Seeing that the young lady's face was flushed, the girl comforted her and said: "Miss, I think the young master of the Bai family is still polite, and he probably won't tell anyone about what happened today."
Miss Cheng Er said with red eyes: "We were the first to be rude."
"I don't blame Miss, who knew that Young Master Bai would leave so soon? I didn't even have time to invite someone for the ceremony, so I only had a meal at home." The girl felt a little shabby.
Miss Cheng Er whispered: "Father said that he knows that he knows how to improve himself through studies, which is a good thing. If he delays his studies just to say goodbye, it's not worth entrusting him."
The girl didn't understand, "Isn't it okay for Young Master Bai to value Miss?"
Miss Cheng Er grabbed the handkerchief and said: "Okay, but it's not good either. The things here are too complicated, and you don't understand it. Tell the driver to hurry up. We may have been out for a long time, and we have to go to the cloth again." Zhuang Xuan clothes, it's late to go back, mother should be worried."
They used this as an excuse to go out today, and if they went back directly without ordering the clothes, her mother would definitely know.
The girl should go down.
Bai Dalang carefully selected in the silver building, and picked out a jade hairpin that he thought was particularly suitable for becoming the second young lady. After having someone wrap it, he looked at the gold jewelry aside, pointed to one and said, "Wrap this up too. .”
The man wrapped him up and sent him out the door with a happy face.
Bai Dalang and the boy arrived outside Cheng's house, he took out the letter he had been receiving in his arms, put it on the box, handed it to the boy, closed his eyes and said: "Send it in."
The young man hugged the box and confirmed with the young master again, "Master, did I send it in?"
Bai Dalang waved his hand, turned his back and didn't look at him.
The boy went to knock on the door, and couldn't help but mutter in his heart: Why didn't you give the letter to someone you met just now, you have to make another trip.
Could Bai Dalang tell him that he forgot
That is of course impossible.
Miss Cheng returned home in a somewhat depressed mood, and finally finished talking with her mother. Before she had time to leave, someone came over with two boxes and bowed: "Madam, Second Miss, the servant next to Young Master Bai They sent two boxes, saying they were gifts for the madam and the second young lady."
Mrs. Cheng glanced at her daughter, and seeing that she was stunned on the spot, she waved and smiled, "Send it here for me to have a look."
The servant delivered two boxes and a letter, bowed his head and said, "There is also a letter from Young Master Bai, which is said to be for Miss."
Mrs. Cheng took the letter and opened the big box with one hand. Seeing the golden jewelry inside, she laughed out loud, "I'm afraid this gift is incidental. I really want to give it to you."
Miss Cheng Er's face was flushed, and she whispered angrily: "Mother..."
"Okay, let's not talk about you, just open it and see what it is."
Although Miss Cheng wanted to take it back and read it for herself, she still opened another small box.
Mrs. Cheng took a look, and saw that it was a jade hairpin carved with plum blossoms. She looked at the jade hairpin, then at her daughter, and nodded in satisfaction: "Yes, this jade hairpin is well chosen, so it can be seen that she has taken care of it." of."
Miss Cheng Er couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled, gently put the jade hairpin in the box and closed it, her eyes fixed on the letter pressed by her mother's hand.
Mrs. Cheng didn't want to give her the letter directly. She needed to know what Bai Dalang wrote in the letter and whether there was anything inappropriate. If it was Meng Lang, she should change it while the marriage could still be changed.
So Mrs. Cheng handed the letter to her with a smile, and said with a smile: "Open it quickly and see what he wrote in this letter."
Miss Cheng held the letter and didn't want to open it, so Mrs. Cheng gave the servants a wink, and when they all went down, she took her hand and said in a low voice: "What a silly girl, can mother harm you? This word and the letter The best way to see character."
She said: "Your father said that the Bai family is about to wake up, and he is looking at the future of the Bai family, but when we women get married, we can't just look at the future, but also our character."
Mrs. Cheng pulled her and said earnestly: "I didn't like the Bai family at first, not for anything else, but because their family didn't have any friendship with us and dared to call a matchmaker to come to our house to talk about you. Shi, your uncle is also an official in the court, your character and appearance are not bad, even the son of the governor, and his father is a scholar, but he has no fame..."
"But when I saw Mrs. Bai later, I felt that although she was not very smart, she was pure and romantic. I also secretly heard Mr. Bai talking to your father, but she was an honest person. You also thought that she was a good parent, so I let go. of."
Miss Cheng Er retorted softly, "It's not because he looks good..."
Mrs. Cheng looked at her, and Miss Cheng whispered, "He's not bad at learning."
Mrs. Cheng said: "The eldest son of Geng Sima, he is not bad in knowledge, good in character, and he is a classmate with your brother. Why do you dislike him?"
After all, isn't it because Bai Dalang looks better than Geng Dalang
Miss Cheng blushed and said nothing.
Madam Cheng pushed her and said, "Look quickly, what he wrote to you."
Miss Cheng Er opened the letter and read it with a blushing face.
This letter was written by Bai Dalang early in the morning, and it was revised many times in the middle, which took a lot of paper, and it was not finalized until after noon, and it was transcribed and sealed in a more neat and beautiful manner.
He originally wanted to buy a gift and give it to Miss Cheng, but he hesitated halfway, and when he met Miss Cheng, he didn't think about giving it to him, so he almost smashed it in his hand.
When Miss Cheng Er saw the letter, she knew it wasn't him who wrote it. At least what was written in the letter was that since yesterday's farewell, it was obvious that he had already written it.
The corners of Miss Cheng'er's mouth could not help but curl up, the depression in her heart completely dissipated, and her mood couldn't help but soar.
She no longer concealed it, and showed it directly to her mother, "Hey, I didn't write anything, I just said his address in the capital. If I want to contact him, I can write and send it to this place, or give the letter to his home." , delivered by his family."
Mrs. Cheng looked at the first half of the letter, it was written by Bai Dalang why he agreed to this marriage, in other words, it was his love words to Miss Cheng.
But it was still restrained and polite, and the language was beautiful, Madam Cheng pretended not to see it, took the third letter with the address and nodded slightly, "All right, you can put it away."
Seeing the corners of her mouth curled up, Mrs. Cheng said: "But I just got engaged yesterday, and I'm sending things to the mansion today. If you don't know, you may think that you have been in touch before."
Miss Cheng Er immediately suppressed the corners of her mouth and denied, "No, mother doesn't know, I haven't seen him before."
"I know, but others don't know. It's not just our mother and daughter in the family. In order to prevent others from gossip, you should be more reserved in the future, you know?" Mrs. Cheng said: "He sent things here because he valued you, you put them away first. , but you are not allowed to associate with him easily, and wait for the holidays or his birthday before giving him something, which is also known as courtesy."
