The two people walking at the front soon arrived at the front hall. As soon as they stepped through the threshold, the noisy hall suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes fell on the crescent-white figure at the door.
"Ming boy is here? Xi Yatou is also here. It just so happens that the old man was thinking about you two just now." Bai Chongyuan said with a smile on his face. When he saw the two figures at the door, his eyes were filled with tears. It's all smiles.
Several officials sitting in the hall and some officials outside the hall quickly recognized Bai Xi, knowing that she was the woman standing behind Prime Minister Feng that day, and she was also the woman held in Prime Minister Feng's arms. But who is this woman? General Bai seems to not only know her, but also like her very much? What does she have to do with the Bai family
"Really? It doesn't look like it to me." Bai Xi said lightly. The old man knew a lot of things, but he was unwilling to tell her.
"Xi'er, today is your grandpa's sixtieth birthday. You are not allowed to tease grandpa like you usually do." Bai Jinhang scolded him in a low voice. In fact, it was not a scolding, because there was no scolding in it, but more of indulgence.
"It's okay, old man, I just like talking to Girl Xi in this way."
The two people's singing together made everyone present immediately understand Bai Xi's identity. It turned out that General Bai not only knew this woman, but they were actually his grandfather and grandson. After a long time, it turned out that this woman was Miss Bai's family.
Wait, Miss Bai, I heard that all the ladies in the Bai family have beautiful faces, but the one in front of me seems to have nothing to do with beauty. You must know that in the Bai family, there is only one person who has nothing to do with beauty, and that is the legendary stupid and ugly Second Miss Bai. Could it be that the woman in front of her is the legendary Second Miss Bai
"Bang bang bang", the officials in the hall suddenly fell from their chairs, and even the chairs under them were turned upside down by their bodies; at the same time, this sound was also heard outside the hall, There was even the sound of tables and chairs being lifted and porcelain falling to the floor and cracking.
"Old man, your birthday is really spectacular." Bai Xi leaned over and whispered in Bai Chongyuan's ear with a playful smile.
But why did she feel that the scene today felt familiar. Ah, she remembered that the scene she saw in Yipinlou on the night of the Chinese Valentine's Day was the same as today.
It turned out that there was not a riot, but someone was scared, but what was it? By Feng Ming's appearance? In this case, these people are too easily frightened. Even if that person is famous, isn't he still a person? Isn't it so exaggerated
She naturally recognized that the guests in front of her were officials in the court. Their official positions seemed to be quite high, and one of them seemed to be the father of the old man who tried his best to bring his brother and a woman together. It was said that he seemed to have been the old man's right-hand man. . But even so, these officials are also high-ranking officials. Their endurance should be stronger, and they often meet in the same court. But today... Hey, it doesn't matter if you fall, the seat will fall with it. It doesn't matter, the important thing is that it was just a faint glance from the man Feng Ming, and it turned into this. Hey, not only was it what was going on outside, but they were not glanced at by Feng Ming.
"Haha, it would be so spectacular with a girl like you here." Bai Chongyuan said with a pointed smile, and his eyes fell on Feng Ming, who was standing upright, intentionally or unintentionally.
Bai Xi rolled her eyes, what does this have to do with her
"Boy Ming, I'm really honored that you can come to the old man's birthday party."
Feng Ming ignored Bai Chongyuan and just sat down on a seat beside him. His eyes happened to fall on the officials who had just been helped up. The figures of those officials suddenly stiffened and they did not dare to breathe heavily. Their faces They didn't dare to show any expression, as if they were afraid of being seen through again, they could only let others help them sit back in their seats.
Bai Chongyuan smiled lightly at Feng Ming's disregard, and then turned his gaze to Bai Xi beside him, "Girl, what gift are you going to give the old man this year?"
Bai Xi secretly screamed, she didn't know that today was the old man's birthday, so where did the gift come from, "Old man, is there anyone who wants a gift like you?"
"Did you forget the old man's birthday?" Bai Chongyuan seemed to have read Bai Xi's thoughts and looked at the latter with suspicion.
"How can we forget that today is your birthday." As he said this, Bai Xi was secretly wondering when did this smelly old man become so shrewd and could even guess her thoughts, "Bai Shi Uncle, help me prepare some pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
Xiao Qiuqiu said that this Baishi was the old man's military advisor and a confidant. He had an unshakable position in the Bai family army. However, after the old man delegated power to take care of himself, he suddenly resigned from his position as military advisor and stayed in the Bai Mansion willingly. Although he is a servant, his status is higher than that of the White House Butler. Even his father respects him.
Bai Shi glanced at Bai Chongyuan, then nodded and quickly went to prepare what Bai Xi wanted.
"Girl, are you going to make a painting on the spot and give it to me, the old man?" How could he not know whether this girl had prepared a gift for him, but he just wanted to tease her. He hasn't quarreled with the girl for several days, and he misses her.
"The old man really understands my thoughts." Her painting skills are not very good, but she can handle today. You know, the weird old man (Bai Xi's modern grandfather) is much more difficult to deal with than this smelly old man. In the end, she still managed it.
Bai Chongyuan didn't speak, just stroking his beard and laughing. However, from the corner of his eye, he glanced at the man in Chinese clothes who had just walked into the hall and stood next to Bai Yujie. He suddenly laughed loudly and said, "Boy Chen is finally here." , the old man is very impatient to wait, come on, come on, the old man will introduce you to my girl Xi."
The man in gorgeous clothes instantly became the focus of everyone's attention, and everyone was thinking who was this man? What kind of identity do you have? To be able to get General Bai to be so happy, but because they have been in the officialdom for so many years, this person must have a good background. This is the first impression that the man suddenly appeared in front of everyone; Bai Xi also saw the man, and only saw her eyes. In a flash, it was him!
"Qingchen wishes General Bai that he will be as blessed as the flowing water of the East China Sea and as long as the immortal pines of Nanshan Mountain."
"Okay, okay." Bai Chongyuan said three good words in a row, his eyes full of smiles, "Xi Yatou, come on, the old man will introduce you. He is your mother-in-law's son Qingchen. After careful calculation, he should be yours. Cousin."
mother? This seemed to be the first time she heard the Bai family take the initiative to mention her mother. Also, was this person her cousin? Bai Xi looked at the man in front of her again. Last time she was still guessing whether this man was a friend or an enemy, but today he became a relative. Isn't this too much of a coincidence
