Bai Xi suddenly laughed a little, that's it. Hey, there is no other way. Since the old man has finished speaking, it can only be over. He stood up and followed him silently. Before leaving, he didn't forget to glance at Lan's family. With the two people's hearing, The familiar voice said, "I'm sorry, you didn't get what you wanted."
Lan gritted her teeth and looked angrily at the back of the person who was gradually walking away. She never expected that the storm would end so suddenly. She originally thought that the old man would punish Bai Xi severely, but little did she know...
"Master, this..."
Bai Jinhang didn't give Lan a chance to speak at all, and glared at her, "You can go back to your respective courtyards. My father has already made a decision on this matter, so there is no need to spend unnecessary thoughts on it. And , watch your mouth, I don't want anything to slander the master in the house." After saying this, Bai Jinhang gave Zhang a very meaningful look before moving away.
Mrs. Zhang was startled. The master's look just now... was he disappointed? Are you disappointed in her
"Madam, Lin'er..."
"Whatever I say is what I say." Mrs. Zhang glared at Lan in displeasure, then stood up and left. She admitted that she had known about this matter for a long time and allowed the situation to develop, but she did not expect that Bai Xi would suddenly She had never expected such a counterattack as soon as she returned home.
Lan stomped her feet very unwillingly and bit her lips tightly. Bai Xi is a descendant of the Bai family, and her daughter is also a descendant of the Bai family, and they are both concubines. Why should her daughter be treated like this? Humiliation, but Bai Xi can enjoy that high status. Not only can he be favored by the old man and his master in every possible way, but he can also marry Lord Bingdian, who is respected by thousands of people. Why? She was unwilling to give in, a hundred or a thousand times.
"Sister, don't let the third young lady find trouble with the second young lady again, otherwise it will only be the elder sister and the third young lady who will suffer." Mrs. Lin smiled proudly. No matter what the result is today, it is a good thing for her. .
After saying this, Lin took Bai Linglong and walked past Lan and left. Only Lan was left in the huge hall, filled with hatred and unwillingness.
On the other side, after Bai Xi followed Bai Chongyuan out of the hall, the two of them walked in tandem without any conversation, and they arrived at Mo Garden.
Bai Chongyuan took Bai Xi directly to the most remote room in Mo Garden. It was dark inside. Even if the candle was lit, it could not fully illuminate the room, but the furnishings inside could be vaguely seen. The furnishings in the room are very simple, just a table, a chair, and a few large boxes.
"These big boxes are filled with your mother's things." Bai Chongyuan spat out slowly, walked to a big box and opened it directly, took out a painting and put it on the table and unfolded it, "Girl, this is you mother."
Bai Xi was stunned. She didn't expect that the old man would take the initiative to mention this to her. He moved his body slightly and looked at the woman in the painting eagerly.
Bai Chongyuan's eyes were always on the woman in the painting, and he slowly said, "Your mother is my daughter, the daughter I love most, and the daughter who gives me the most headaches. I chose a marriage for her back then, but she... She ran away the day before the wedding, and there was no news from her for half a year. When my people found her, she was already married, and she said she was very happy. But another year passed, and it was her The bad news, girl, do you know that at that time I wanted to kill that man."
"Old man..." Bai Xi put his hand on Bai Chongyuan's left shoulder.
Bai Chongyuan slowly sat on the only chair, raised his eyes slightly to look at Bai Xi, and whispered softly, "Girl, I know you have already guessed your life experience, the rest is just confirmation. As you just heard, your mother is my daughter, and your father is actually your uncle."
"In my heart, old man, you will always be my grandfather, and daddy will always be daddy." No matter what her life experience is, in her heart, they are her real relatives. As for the father who has another blood relationship with her, she will find him and find out the truth. If he wants to kill her, it depends on whether she will give him another chance.
"Girl, you and your mother are actually very similar, both in temperament and appearance." He still remembered the girl's appearance when she took off the mask last time. He didn't expect that this girl was becoming more and more like her. .
"Old man, are you praising me or belittling me? I didn't give you a headache." Bai Xi said with a joking smile, and his eyes fell on the painting on the table again, but the old man was not wrong. She and Mother does look somewhat similar, but mother looks more feminine, but this word never appears on her.
Bai Chongyuan chuckled, and the sadness on his face dissipated a lot, "You girl didn't give me a headache."
"Don't worry, I won't give you any more headaches in the future." Seeing Bai Chongyuan's mood improve, Bai Xi also smiled along with him.
"That's natural. Boy Ming will have a headache in the future. How can it be my old man's turn to worry about it? Boy Ming is going to suffer."
"Huh, I'm the one who's suffering. It's already settled that I won't be deceived by her. How could he suffer, old man? Don't think he's so easy to bully." She had never gained anything from him. The good thing is that he is the only one who can squeeze everything out of her at will, so the one who suffers will only be her, not him.
Bai Chongyuan raised his hand and hit Bai Xi hard on the head, "No potential!"
Bai Xi gently rubbed the sore spot on his head and said confidently, "I will fight back sooner or later."
"This is my granddaughter." Bai Chongyuan nodded with satisfaction.
"Girl, actually when we were in the hall, I wanted to disclose your life experience, but after thinking about it carefully, it is still up to you to decide." Bai Chongyuan said slowly after careful consideration.
"Huh?" Bai Xi was startled. She had guessed that the old man wanted her to come to the hall for another purpose, but she didn't expect it to be this.
"As long as your life experience is revealed, you don't have to wear that human skin mask anymore. At the same time, next month you and Ming will get married. Now is the best time for you to take off the mask." He couldn't let it happen. This girl has worn that mask her whole life.
"Old man, why did you put this mask on me in the first place?" Bai Xi touched the mask on his face. The mask was quite lifelike. It was impossible to tell that it was a human skin mask. What was even more unexpected was that the mask was actually To grow with her.
"For your safety."
"Old man, can you explain in more detail?"
Bai Chongyuan hesitated for a while before nodding, and then detailed everything he knew. Since the matter had developed to this point, there was no need for him to hide it anymore.
When Bai Xi returned to Xiyuan, it was already late at night. The cold wind was blowing slightly, but it could not extinguish the fire in Bai Xi's heart. It seemed that she had to go to the Qilin Kingdom.
"Miss, you are back. You are really scaring me to death. I have never seen such a master. I have been worried about whether my master will punish the miss." Mu Qiu, who was guarding the door of the yard, saw the miss. , immediately ran up and said with lingering fear, the old man has always been extremely kind and doting to the young lady, but just now the old man's expression was as terrifying as if he wanted to kill someone.
Bai Xi pursed her lips and remained silent, still looking thoughtful.
Mu Qiu was also very obedient and did not disturb her. Looking at the tired young lady, Mu Qiu couldn't help but blame herself. It was all because of them, otherwise the young lady would not have made the master angry.
"Miss, this servant is going to prepare a midnight snack."
"No need." She had already eaten before returning to Bai's house. In addition, she ate some snacks in the hall. She is still full. If she wants to go to Qilin Country, the first thing she must prepare is In the Beijing Examination a few days later, in addition to horse shooting, infantry shooting, flat shooting, carbine shooting, and martial arts, there is also one most important subject in the martial arts examination, which is the written test on military strategy. She still has horse shooting and other subjects. She is confident, but as for the written examination, at present, if she wants to win the first prize and win the top spot, she may have some difficulties. She has to work hard in this aspect.
"Ah..." Mu Qiu seemed to have thought of something and exclaimed loudly, and said hurriedly, "Miss, my uncle is still waiting for the lady in the back room." Mu Qiu was annoyed in her heart. She was frightened by the master's appearance. Worried that the young lady would be punished by her master, she actually forgot about it.
Bai Xi raised his eyebrows. This must be the first time that man Feng Ming has stepped into her yard since Fengcheng came back.
"Xiao Qiuqiu, if you're tired, go back to your room and rest. If you're not tired, go find Qingwu and catch up on old times." Bai Xi didn't give Mu Qiu a chance to reply, and walked directly into the main room, leaving a look of shame on his face. Red Mu Qiu.
Bai Xi did not immediately find Feng Ming in the room, but finally found him on the bed. This man was good. He occupied her bed as soon as he came into her room. It seemed that he had been sleeping for a while.
The figure on the bed opened his eyes slightly, and said softly in a sleepy voice, "You're back."
