Ding Xiang shook her head and said, "I seem to have heard that it was Miss who saved General Lu when she was young..."
Bai Guo raised his head, looked at the crescent moon in the sky, and said: "Yes, I also heard from my brother that the young lady was very sick since she was a child, and she couldn't even speak. She finally raised her head until she was three years old, and her illness became more and more serious. She almost died, sir. Madam searched for famous doctors and elixir, but failed to cure her. Later, Madam took her to the temple to pray to the Bodhisattva, and said that she was willing to give her life to the young lady, and asked the Bodhisattva to save the young lady's life. The Bodhisattva really appeared, and the young lady suddenly recovered. Got up, and was able to speak. Madam was very happy, and took the young lady home. On the way, she saw a little boy in ragged clothes lying on the side of the road, kicked and beaten by several older beggars. Madam didn't want to pay attention at first, but The young lady insisted on saving him, saying it was for her own good, and the madam agreed as soon as she heard it."
"That boy is the current General Lu Yinglu. His family is a hereditary military household. His father died of a serious illness and his family's wealth was exhausted. His mother took him to the capital to join the Cui family, his father's former friend and son and daughter's in-laws. Unexpectedly, the Cui family I hate the poor and love the rich, so I drove them out when I saw that their mother and son were in poor condition. General Lu’s mother had run out of money, so she had no choice but to take her son to beg all the way back home. The two were separated unexpectedly not long after leaving the capital. General Lu was a thirteen-year-old child who went begging on the street and almost died. The lady rescued him, and then asked the master to teach him martial arts and let him study. After a few years, General Lu went to join the army, but his household registration document In the hands of his mother, he could only start as a small soldier. It was because of his luck and ability that he met noble people to help him, and he rose to his current position step by step. He thought of the favor of the Bai family and volunteered to guard Beiguan City. In fact, I also want to take care of Miss's family nearby."
Ding Xiang listened for a long time, and finally couldn't help but said: "Then... what does that have to do with Miss Lu not liking Mrs. Lu?" An example of slowly living a good life is the case of Huang Bai, the shopkeeper of Tongyun Tower just now, and Ding Xiang herself, so it is not the case, but their achievements and reputation are not as good as Lu Yingda.
Bai Guo glared at her, and said angrily, "Because this so-called Mrs. Lu is the Cui family who was engaged to General Lu at the beginning!"
"Ah? Didn't they regret their marriage back then?" Ding Xiang asked in surprise.
"Hmph! That family of snobs, seeing that General Lu became famous, did not know what kind of dirty tricks they used, brazenly mentioned the marriage they made back then, and forced their daughter to General Lu! General Lu didn't know why , I actually agreed! It's really annoying!" Bai Guo said angrily.
Ding Xiang nodded, and said angrily: "No wonder Miss hates that woman! If I had known, I would have gone up and scolded her just now! Shameless!"
Seeing that she was filled with righteous indignation, Bai Guo suddenly stopped being angry, and said with a snicker, "So tell me, why would General Lu blame our young lady for disrespecting her sister-in-law for such a woman?"
On the ebony carriage, the small gauze lantern swayed slightly as the carriage moved forward. In the dim light and shadow, the young miss of the Bai family, who had just taught the bad woman a lesson, had no smile on her small face. Taking out a piece of verdant crystal jade pendant and playing with it, he said softly: "What if you don't like her anymore? She is already your legitimate wife... What a nuisance! She clearly agreed to be my husband in the first place... "
Under the light, the jade pendant was actually very similar to the one worn by Mrs. Lu, they clearly seemed to be a pair...
Back at the boundary of Baijiazhuang, it was already Xu time, the carriage drove into Baili Mountain, and the big housekeeper Bai Shen came up to welcome him.
Bai Fuling's heart warmed and opened the door, Bai Shen walked up two steps and sat by the door, the speed of the ebony carriage did not slow down at all, and Bai Shen's posture sitting by the door was also very natural, clearly not weak.
Bai Fuling walked over to him and took his arm and complained: "Dad and mother are waiting for me again? Uncle San didn't try to persuade them for me, I won't get lost at my age, and there are so many people hugging me follow."
Bai Shen is an old man of the Bai family. He is a few years older than the master of the Bai family. He has never married and has no children in his life. Watching Bai Fuling grow up, he regards her as his own daughter in his heart, and he is very close to her. Good luck, smiled and said: "Uncle San can't sleep until he comes back safely after seeing you, let alone Mrs. Madam? It's also lucky that you have someone by your side, otherwise you will suffer a lot today."
The implication is that he has already heard the news about what happened to Bai Fuling today.
Bai Fuling was not at all surprised by his well-informed information: "Yaxing is the territory of our Bai family. Even if I don't bring anyone with me, no one can bully me. Tongyun Building is owned by Huang Bai. If something happens, It won't be me who suffers."
"Always be careful."
Bai Fuling kept her mouth shut, opened the small drawer on the side of the car, carefully took out a pair of ivory crafted balls from a velvet box, handed it to Bai Shen and said, "Daddy said Uncle San's hand The kung fu is very powerful, I happened to see this in the dental shop today, and thought it would be the most appropriate to bring it back for Uncle San to play with."
The white ginseng took it and put it on the palm for a look. I saw that the surface of the two ghostly crafted balls was extremely smooth, with only faint moiré patterns. A total of thirty-six holes of various sizes were drilled on the balls. There are more than 20 layers, each layer is round and can be rotated freely, and each layer is thinner than the next layer. I really don't know what kind of skilled craftsman can have such craftsmanship!
Such a thing may be destroyed if it is held in the hand with a little carelessness, let alone it is used for turning and playing? The only thing Bai Shen pondered was that he knew it was given to him by the young lady to practice. To be able to freely rotate this ivory ball in his palm, he had to grasp every minute and every inch of strength in his hand with great precision. Fortunately, Miss was willing to use it for him to experiment.
Bai Shen put the pair of ivory balls back into the velvet box dumbfounded, and said with a wry smile: "Thanks to Miss Meng, I will accept this pair of ivory balls."
Bai Fuling smiled and said, "Uncle San is so powerful, what are these two ghost balls? In a short time, even ten or eight Uncle San can play freely. It's just that we need to find a few more that are exactly the same. It's been a while."
Bai Shen said helplessly: "Ten or eight, just these two, Uncle Shen doesn't know how long it will take before he dares to get started."
The two chatted and laughed, and soon felt that the carriage stopped. Bai Shen personally helped Bai Fuling out of the carriage, walked back two steps to accompany her into the hall in front—Master Bai only had such a precious daughter in his life, Seeing her leaning against other uncles affectionately, without saying anything on the face, I would definitely feel jealous in my heart.
