On the second day, everyone in the main courtyard went to bed late, from top to bottom!
Xibing and Jiuyue opened their eyes and saw the sky light coming in from the window, and immediately got up.
Wu Yue, who came over, was speechless for a long time, and reprimanded them in a low voice, "What time is it and you are still asleep, fortunately, Madam Liu is not here, otherwise I would have peeled your skin."
Looking at the main room again, he found that there was no movement, so he breathed a sigh of relief, "The master and the lady haven't got up yet, why don't you wash up and go to the kitchen to fetch hot water?"
Xibing scratched her head and said, "They shouldn't have woken up so early, there was still movement in the room at midnight last night."
When Wu Yue heard this, she turned around and left, "I'll stop the little lady, you guys pack up quickly."
The little Bai Jingxing, who went to bed early and got up early, had already dressed with the help of the maid. She jumped off the soft couch and ran to find her mother.
But Wuyue stopped him before entering the courtyard, "Little lady, have you greeted grandma and aunt after waking up?"
Bai Jingxing asked: "Don't you want to ask your mother to go with you?"
"Grandmother and eldest aunt are in the same courtyard with you. You can go to greet them first when you wake up, and then come to find your wife and go there together."
"No, I want to be with mother," said the little boy Bai Jingxing with a serious face, "Daddy told me before he left that he's not at home. I want to be obedient and care more about mother."
After finishing speaking, I will bypass May and enter the yard.
Wuyue picked her up, "The Lord has come back, so you don't need to care about the little lady, let's take care of grandma and aunt first."
Bai Jingxing's eyes lit up, and he said happily, "Daddy is back? I'm going to find Daddy!"
"Big sister," Zheng's voice sounded not far away.
The little boy Bai Jingxing turned his head to look, and saw his grandmother standing not far away smiling at her, and waved to her when she saw her, "Come here, your eldest aunt made glutinous rice cakes today, and there is only a small plate."
Bai Jingxing immediately slid down Wuyue's embrace and ran towards his grandmother, "Can I eat glutinous rice cakes?"
Zheng smiled and said, "You can eat a piece."
"I want two pieces."
"It's only five yuan in total. If you eat two yuan, we will have nothing to eat."
Bai Jingxing looked regretful, and clasped his two chubby little hands together and asked nervously, "Then can I eat the syrup on the plate?"
Mrs. Zheng took her little hand and said with a smile, "I can give you half of it."
Bai Jingxing forgot his parents in an instant, happily took his grandmother's hand and skipped to the kitchen.
The glutinous rice cakes were beaten yesterday evening, and Xiaoqian beat them again today, took them out and cut them into strips, and put them directly into the oil pan to fry.
The glutinous rice cakes she fried are golden and crispy. Take them out and filter out the oil, put them on a plate, sprinkle with fried and ground soybean powder, and then pour over the syrup she cooked, and a sweet smell spreads over the surface.
The little boy Bai Jingxing stood on tiptoe and put his hands on the stove, looking at him with big eyes that looked like Zhou Man, with a serious expression on his face.
Seeing this, Xiaoqian's heart softened, and after putting down the pot, he brought down the plate to show her.
Bai Jingxing swallowed, and asked softly, "Auntie, can I have two pieces?"
"No." Xiaoqian patted her little head and said, "Your mother said that this food will not be digested if you eat too much, so you can only eat one piece at a time."
"I saw my mother eating two yuan last time. When can I eat two yuan like my mother?"
"Wait until you grow up."
Bai Jingxing looked forward to growing up again.
After carefully comparing the five pieces of glutinous rice cakes on the plate, the little girl Bai Jingxing chose the one she thought was the biggest for Xiaoqian, and the larger one for her grandmother. She weighed the remaining three pieces for a long time, hesitating. Picked a piece.
Wu Yue put the piece she chose in her bowl, and watched her bite it with a spoon in it, and the corners of her mouth were inevitably stained with syrup.
Zheng's heart softened when she saw it, and she wanted to give her the glutinous rice cakes in her bowl, but thinking of Zhou Man's advice, she could only bear it, that's all, the child's stomach is not like an adult's, so it's better to eat less.
But the way the child eats is really nice.
Zheng Shi and Xiao Qian Shi said happily: "Fortunately, my in-laws came with me. This child's taste is full of treasures. The cook at home can't make that taste."
Xiaoqian was also very satisfied, "They can eat as long as they like."
When Zhou Man and Bai Shan woke up, it was already high in the sun, and the kid Bai Jingxing returned from playing in the garden, and continued to stare at the two pieces of glutinous rice cakes left on the plate.
Seeing that her parents were late, she immediately ran over to greet them.
She threw herself into her father's arms and looked up at him, "Daddy, are you going to have lunch? Today my aunt made glutinous rice cakes. Don't you like them, or I'll eat them for you?"
Bai Shan hugged her up, nodded her nose and said with a smile: "Daddy likes to eat, I'll give you a bite later."
Bai Jingxing was very satisfied, hugged his neck and thanked him loudly: "Thank you dad!"
Zhou Man didn't stop her, and the servants brought out the breakfast food. Mrs. Zheng ordered the glutinous rice cakes to be taken down and reheated again, and then she looked at Bai Shan, "When did you come back last night?"
"I came back very late, by the way, Governor Liu is in the station," Bai Shan remembered his superior, patted his head and said to Zhou Man, "I won't come back for lunch."
They entered the city after the city gate was closed, and Governor Liu directly used his privilege to enter the city from the small city gate.
Zhou Man nodded and ate slowly.
Bai Shan couldn't help but go to see her, "Inspector Liu has never been to Beihai County, this is the first time, he will probably ask the medical office."
Zhou Man said: "Zheng Gu is on duty at the medical office today, you forgot, today is a rest day, I will take a rest."
She said: "Let's talk about it when he really goes. The medical office is not far away. I will go there then."
If he doesn't go, wouldn't she have to wait a day in the medical office for nothing
Bai Shan thought about it, "Then I'll keep an eye on it. If he passes by, I'll send someone back in advance to tell you."
Respond to Zhou Man.
So Zhou Man stayed at home to rest, and no one came to look for her until the afternoon, so she felt that Governor Liu would not look for her today, so she changed into lighter clothes, took her daughter's little hand and said, "Let's go, Mother will take you to the street to play."
Bai Jingxing immediately put his toys into the box, pushed them to Wu Yue's hand, took his mother's hand and left.
The mother and daughter went out happily, and finally walked out of the alley to the street. A fast horse galloped from the street, and the people on the road quickly gave way to both sides, jumping like crazy.
Zhou Man squinted his eyes, and the horse came straight towards them, she pulled Bai Jingxing behind, Daji took a step forward, squinted his eyes, and recognized the person, "My lady, it seems to be following Master Tang guard."
The guard came flying fast, and stopped the horse before reaching Zhou Man. Before the horse stopped, he jumped off the horse, went straight up and knelt down and said, "Master Zhou, our lord has been assassinated, please help us."
