Wu Yue finally came back with two little girls with red eyes, Bai Shan who was welcoming the guests at the door was dumbfounded.
"What's the matter?" He couldn't stop looking at his daughter, asking you to seduce people, not to bully them!
The little boy Bai Jingxing ran forward, raised his little hand and opened it to show him the little fruit that was pulled open in his hand, "I said there is no such wild fruit in the fields of the capital, she must say that there is, Dad, tell me, Is there really such a wild fruit beside the fields in the capital?"
Thanks to Zhou Man, Bai Shan also knows many plants that he shouldn't know. With just one glance, he said, "Diguo? We have a lot of these things in the southwest, and around Chang'an... I haven't seen them, but it doesn't mean they don't exist. Are you crying because of this?"
Zhuang Wenxin was a little afraid of the adults, and stood aside with his neck shrunk.
Bai Shan smiled and touched her head, "It's not a big deal. If you want to know if there are such wild fruits in the fields in the capital, you can go to the capital with us and have a look."
Zhuang Wenxin was only six years old, and she couldn't understand the hidden meaning of many words, and she was afraid of talking to adults, who were still strangers.
So he stood obediently and did not speak.
Bai Shan: "Where's Da Baoer?"
Bai Jingxing: "He is picking ears of rice in the field."
Bai Shan felt that it might be a mistake to entrust such an important matter to his daughter and nephew, but it was difficult to correct it at this time, so he could only say to the two little girls: "Your hands are dirty, go back and wash them quickly. , I have made a lot of delicious snacks in the kitchen, I will ask someone to bring you some, and I will have snacks at home in the afternoon, so don’t run out.”
Bai Jingxing could only agree.
After Wu Yue brought the two children in, Bai Erlang came over with a tired face, "What did you send my son out for?"
Bai Shan: "Why are you like this? You don't need to do anything for this banquet."
The overall planning was done by Master Bai and his two families. They were completely hands-off shopkeepers. At most, they stood at the door to greet guests who arrived early from afar, such as Bai Dalang's father-in-law's family in Mianzhou, and Bai Erlang's grandfather. Home…
"Don't mention it," Bai Erlang said: "Didn't you see that someone came from my grandfather's house? I came to you, no, I came to Man Bao, please go and save Mingda, she is here I've been sitting in the lobby for an hour..."
Bai Shan couldn't help laughing, and beckoned to a servant, "Go and call Jiulan or Xibing, let them go to the next door to invite the princess, and said that the lady has something to discuss with the princess."
The servants responded and left.
Bai Shan: "Isn't that all right? Why do you have to come to find someone in person? Just ask the people around you to come and find someone."
Bai Erlang looked around and saw that there were no guests coming, so he sat down on the threshold of Bai Shan's house, "I want to go out too, they are so enthusiastic, it's strange, obviously you and Man Baoguan are older than me, The real power is more important than me, so why do the guests come to me instead of you?"
"Because you are a son-in-law, you have a noble status."
Bai Erlang propped his chin and sighed: "I don't think about anything now, I just want to come soon tomorrow, as long as the banquet is over."
As soon as the table opens, everyone's thoughts should be on the food, right
"Don't think about it, the running water mats outside are nothing more than that, the seats in the yard, who is here for the seats?" Bai Shan reached out and patted his shoulder and said, "You will be tired tomorrow."
Bai Erlang hugged his arm, "Anyway, it's a senior brother, you can't just ignore it. You don't know what questions they can ask, how much is the monthly salary, how much is the job, these are the lightest things The question is, those cousins of mine even asked me how many maids there are in the mansion, how often do I go to Jiaofang and Hualou, and does the princess mind if I go to these places? What's more, some people quietly asked me Will the princess raise her face in private?"
Bai Erlang hugged his arm tightly and said: "Help me, I can't lose my temper at home, otherwise my parents will beat me, it's hard to hold a festive banquet at home."
Bai Shan twitched his arm for a while, so he pointed out a way for him, "Go and invite Mr. Zhuang, tomorrow you will serve by Mr. Zhuang's side, and you will never leave him."
Bai Erlang was startled, hugged his arm and said, "That's right, why did I forget sir, I don't believe they dare to ask me these questions in front of him."
Bai Shan nodded, "Now you know that they are all looking for you, so they won't look for me, right?"
Bai Erlang: "I don't know, Mr. is not by your side at this time."
After a pause, he guessed, "Because that's my grandfather's house, not yours?"
Bai Shan: "...you are right to think so."
He pulled out his hand, shook it and said, "Can you stop using so much force next time, I can't run anymore."
"It's an expression of my emotions, of the restlessness in my heart."
The two sat on the threshold and bickered. When they heard the sound of chariots and horses, they turned their heads and saw a group of people and horses crossing the bridge.
The two looked at each other, stood up and took a few steps forward.
When they saw the sign with the "White" emblem on the carriage, the two immediately greeted them with smiles, "This is..."
A person in charge stepped forward and saluted, "Hello, gentlemen, we are Baifu, the Minister of Sanqi in Yizhou."
Bai Shan: "It turned out to be Yu Tangbo, I don't know who came..."
"Our old lady brought her wife and two gentlemen here."
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang looked at each other, and quickly made a decision in their hearts, with a smile on their faces, "It's my uncle's mother who came here, hurry up and invite me inside. Come on, take the carriage in and report to the old lady. It is said that the uncle and grandmother from Yizhou have come."
After the motorcade came forward, Bai Shan saw two young men on horseback.
The two sides looked at each other, paused for a moment, and then smirked at the same time. Speaking of which, they still have some fate.
Back then they pitted each other, although they hurt their enemies a thousand and their own 800, but the other party was worse than them.
"I haven't seen cousin Ning for many years, and I feel more energetic."
Bai Ning faked a smile and said, "My good cousin is also very energetic."
Mrs. Zuo is not young, so Bai Shan and Bai Erlang respectfully invited people to the hall. Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Bai rushed over when they heard the news, and Mrs. Zuo took a sip of tea.
When the three old people met, they couldn't help laughing, "Sister-in-law is still so energetic."
"How can it compare to my younger siblings, who are living younger and younger, and have not changed at all compared with more than ten years."
"You are the one who lives the best life. I came all the way. The Fengshui in Qili Village is really good. My siblings live here, and my children and grandchildren are promising and filial. No wonder you are so rich."
The three old ladies held hands together and happily recounted the old days, Zhou Man and Mrs. Zheng arrived one step behind, and hurriedly invited the three old ladies to sit down.
Mrs. Bai also rushed over from the next door. She was whispering to her sister-in-law when she was called over.
Seeing Mrs. Zuo, she couldn't help but be speechless. It's amazing that such an old man even traveled long distances to have a drink.
No wonder her mother-in-law came over in person.
Mrs. Bai stepped forward with a smile, stood beside Mrs. Zheng, and asked softly, "Should I call the princess over?"
Knowing that the relationship between her son and the Bai family in Yizhou is not good, Mrs. Zheng still remembers what Bai Yu taught Bai Shan back then, so she lowered her voice and said, "The princess has golden branches and jade leaves, only other people come to see her. How can a princess come out to see guests?"
After thinking about it, Mrs. Bai said in a low voice, "Then I won't invite you. The princess is a little tired after seeing my natal family today."
