After talking about her own affairs, Bai Fuling held her father's arm and tentatively asked, "Daddy, what do you think about... the old Mr. Bai's matter?"
She once asked her mother to test her father's intentions on this matter, but it is said that her father has not made a statement. Since Yang Heng came to remind her a few days ago, she has been looking for an opportunity to confirm this matter with her father. Grandpa Bai Changshan, they To recognize or not to recognize? Also, how to remind him to retreat as soon as possible to ensure the evening.
Regardless of whether this grandfather recognizes it or not, he is always blood relatives, and no matter what, we cannot watch him end in a miserable way. Grandma's time is short, Bai Fuling hopes that her parents will have more relatives besides each other in this world, so that one day she leaves, they don't have to be too lonely.
Bai Chou coughed dryly and said, "Kid, what do you do?"
Bai Fuling shook his arm vigorously, and said in a drawn-out voice: "Daddy..." Normally, when she acted like a baby, her father would grant her wish no matter how difficult it was.
Sure enough, Bai Chou couldn't hold back any longer, turned his face away and said, "How old are your father and I, at this time, halfway to recognize relatives... that's all."
Mu Peilan patted him amusedly and said: "Father and son are close relatives, it's just that they didn't know before, since they knew, why didn't they admit it? You can't be... sorry."
Bai Choujun's face froze, he was very embarrassed, he seemed to be hit by Mu Peilan, Bai Fuling said helplessly: "Father, I thought you were angry with your grandparents so you didn't want to recognize each other, so you..."
Bai Chou sighed and said: "It's not that I didn't complain, but after thinking about it, they have been very difficult for decades. I really suffered a lot when I was a child, but for more than ten years, I have you two mothers and daughters by my side. Around me, I live a life like a fairy every day. Maybe these are destined by the heavens, making me white and ugly first bitter and then sweet. If this is the case, there is nothing to complain about. If my mother hadn’t sold me back then for money If father's illness is cured, maybe father is already dead. Mother and I will die together sooner or later. Although I have suffered a lot and done many wrong things in Qiufeng Pavilion, I have left behind Life."
Mu Peilan took his hand, and said softly: "Since you don't mind, it's better to get to know your father-in-law. He is old, and if we get to know each other as soon as possible, our family can get together."
Bai Chou understood what she meant and nodded silently. She was afraid that he would be like her and rush back to fulfill his filial piety when his mother's time was running out, regretting why she hadn't been nice to her before.
Bai Fuling said happily: "Then I'll ask Pingzi to talk to Grandpa. While I'm still in Beijing, the family will be reunited. Grandpa will resign in the future, so he can live in Baili Mountain."
Bai Chou rubbed her head, said with a smile: "Okay, my precious daughter can say anything."
Early the next morning, Bai Fuling sent Lin Pingzi to the Baifu to ask to see Bai Changshan, while she and her parents left Beijing for Banzhuangshan in a light car. They didn't want to disturb the Bodhisattva by making too much noise, so they only brought Bai A Wu, Bai A Shi, Bai Guo, and Bai Shao with them.
During this period of time, the Bai family sent people to carry out a blanket search of the Banzhuan Mountain area. Not to mention the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Temple, there was not even a shrine dedicated to the land. They were disappointed, but It is also more certain that the ruined temple Mu Peilan saw that day is indeed a miracle.
A group of people came to the foot of Banzhuan Mountain, and to show their sincerity, they all got off the car and walked up the mountain. The scenery of Banzhuang Mountain is ordinary, and only a few farmers and hunters live here and there.
There are few people on the mountain, and the mountain road is rough and difficult to walk. Fortunately, except for Bai Fuling, all of these people have martial arts self-defense, and they don't think there is any problem, only Bai Fuling suffers.
The Bai family came here with a request, and hardened their hearts to ask Bai Fuling to go by herself, not to let Bai Shao and Bai Guo carry her. Bai Fuling was pampered and never suffered. He squatted on the ground without manners and couldn't move. Mu Peilan was very heartbroken, so she massaged her legs herself, but still insisted on continuing to walk to the top of the mountain: "Young girl, bear with it, and let Bai Guo and the others carry you when you go down the mountain. It's only about five miles away from the top of the mountain." , hold on, it will be there soon."
"Mother, why do you have to go to the top of the mountain? Do you remember that temple appeared on the top of the mountain?" Bai Fuling said with her mouth flattened. She felt that the foot of the mountain was closer to the activity range of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who obviously usually danced in the underworld.
Mu Peilan sighed softly and said, "Mother, I wish I could remember. The Bodhisattva saved your life. Even if we can't find it, we must be sincerely grateful, so that we can ask the Bodhisattva to continue to protect you."
Bai Fuling couldn't bear to embarrass and disappoint her mother, since it was her wish, she just kept going.
If so, stop and go, until the afternoon, and finally successfully climbed to the top. Bai Ashi and the others had already come up ahead of time, found a relatively flat place, cleaned up the snow, gravel and other sundries, moved a large flat stone to serve as an incense table, and put all the incense candles and tributes they brought. it is good.
The three members of the Bai family knelt in front of the boulder and prayed devoutly. While rubbing her legs that were about to be useless, Bai Fuling sincerely said in her heart: Bodhisattva, I am very serious about what you asked me to do, and I will soon finish it. Whether it is done to your liking, you can at least give me a quasi-letter letter. If I'm wrong, you can tell me, if I'm right, you don't have to say anything. I also want to ask you two things, one is to ask you to bless the people around me to be safe, healthy, happy and happy in their lifetime, and the other is to ask you to bless me with fewer twists and turns in the last three years, and all troubles will disappear automatically... I I will try my best to complete the task beyond the standard, so please promise me these two small requests. "
After Bai Chou and his wife finished praying, they respectfully kowtowed nine times in front of the stone, and then got up with Bai Fuling to pack up and leave.
When going down the mountain, Bai Shao carried the white poria cocos on the back. Compared with the speed up the mountain, the speed was not the same, but after a meal, I returned to the parking place at the foot of the mountain.
There were a few more young people beside the carriage, two of them were quite familiar, they were Liu Bolun, a son of the Liu family in Kangzhou, and another famous young man whose name was not known.
As soon as the two of them saw Bai Fuling, their eyes lit up. Liu Bolun stepped forward to salute, and said: "I, Liu Bolun, once had a relationship with Miss in Pingzhou. I wonder if Miss still remembers it?"
Today he went out of the city with some friends and passed by here, and saw Bai Fuling's ebony carriage from a distance, and the servants waiting beside the carriage were quite familiar, so he immediately decided to stay here, hoping to see the beauty.
Ever since he saw Bai Fuling in that haunted house in Pingzhou that day, Liu Bolun has been thinking about it like a lost soul. He volunteered to accompany his elders to the capital and began to inquire about Bai Fuling. Bai Fuling made a lot of noise in the capital. He soon learned of her identity and background, and he was mixed with joy and sorrow. He was happy that the beauty was indeed innocent, she was the daughter of a wealthy family, and he was also worried about her. Family status is too high.
The Liu family in Kangzhou is one of the top ten families in martial arts, but in the eyes of the dignitaries in the court, their status is very low. Who would really treat them as friends? It's just a tool that can be used. Who wants their pampered daughter to marry the nephew of the boss of the underworld? The status is not worthy at all.
The situation in the capital city was changing rapidly, before Liu Bolun could lament his unrequited love that was doomed to die young, the Liu family’s backers, the Mao family and the eldest prince, failed in their rebellion and became prisoners. , hoping to get rid of the Mao family completely and find a new backer.
Liu Bolun's secret investigation of Bai Fuling's news was found out by his fellow clan uncle, and after careful questioning, he found out that he had actually saved the life of the eldest lady of the Zhongguo Duke's mansion, and was immediately overjoyed. There are only a few upstarts in the capital who have risen after a turmoil, and the young lady of the Bai family has a very close relationship with two of them, one is her cousin Zhongguo Gong Lin Pingzi, and the other is her righteous brother General Zhenbei If Lu Ying can get involved with these two great figures by relying on this kind of incense, it will be enough to offset most of the influence of the downfall of the Mao family and the eldest prince on the Liu family.
Liu Bolun immediately became an important person in the eyes of the clan's uncle, but Bai Fuling was a wealthy family member, so it was very inconvenient to come to visit rashly, so they had to make long-term plans and make arrangements after finding a suitable time.
As an aristocratic family, the Liu family naturally would not hang themselves on a tree easily. They also had contact with other forces in the court before, so things went smoothly. The more troublesome thing was the empress sent by the Liu family to the capital. The elder disappeared for no reason a few days ago. The Liu family secretly sent a lot of people to find out about him, because he disappeared before the eldest prince had an accident. The matter of treason is involved, especially at this sensitive time, the Liu family may completely become a historical term.
Liu Bolun is just a rookie, he is not familiar with the place of life in the capital, and he can't do much to help him when he goes out for business. These days, he has been bored in the capital. There are many dignitaries in Beijing like dogs, so be careful everywhere, and he doesn't dare to go out to show off at will. Today, he managed to invite a few martial arts students of the same generation to go out to the city. He didn't expect to bump into Bai Fuling who was in his heart by accident. The only fly in the ointment It's just the group of cronies and friends around me who refuse to leave. If he knew this earlier, he would go out alone without saying anything today.
In the old days, Bai Fuling would never pay attention to these boring people who came halfway to strike up a conversation, but thinking that not long ago, he had only seen the elder of the Liu family who was turned into a living puppet by Gan Sui, and had sat on his car Hearing the news of his death with his own ears, and seeing his nephew again, he couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional in his heart, and his attitude became a little more gentle.
She bowed back to Liu Bolun, and said: "I remember, thank you Liu Shaoxia for his righteousness and trying to save him that day." Looking back on what happened that day, she was so regretful that her stomach was green. If she hadn't hit the Shanghai pumice stone, then she wouldn't have to be so troublesome now !
