Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 171

The sky is like ink, and the stars are bright.

Every night, in this bustling city, some dignitaries and dignitaries are singing and dancing, drunk and dreaming of death. The entire Jiangnan country is in a dream of fireworks, lying in the night and listening to the wind and rain. What awaits them is the Iron Horse Glacier ten years later. Come to dream.

Bai Susu was sitting in the carriage, holding a sandalwood box in her hand, which contained a marriage letter and her birthday, on the way back to Baifu.On the way through the streets and alleys in the carriage, she thought for a long time, and she had accepted the fact that the two had broken off their engagement with each other.

After all, the marriage contract between the two is too embarrassing. One cannot get married, and the other does not want to marry. If the stalemate continues, if the Bai family elders handle it, it will definitely be simple and rude, and it will cause even greater unhappiness.

Now that Bai Susu has understood Su Chen's character and his principles of dealing with people, she is not angry with Su Chen, maybe she thinks what he said is right, the current marriage contract has entered a dead end, it is better to cancel it earlier and throw it away Drive over and start over with each other.

Strange to say, when staying at Su's house for dinner, Bai Susu didn't feel awkward about the relationship at all, on the contrary, it was more natural. When it comes to cooperation, the two of them are very comfortable and have a tacit understanding.

However, thinking of the scene where Su Chen asked her for a deposit, Bai Susu was still a little annoyed. This guy clearly doesn't trust anyone, and he seems like someone who can blackmail his money!

Xiao Tong beside him quietly watched the eldest lady frowning, chuckling, and melancholy for a while. She remained silent, and seemed to realize a problem: the eldest lady seemed to be treating Su Chen differently.

When he returned to the courtyard of Su's mansion, he found that Peng Qingqing was practicing boxing in her courtyard while waiting for her to come back.

"Sister Susu, why didn't you come back? I went to talk about the tribute to the emperor today. Did it go well?" Peng Qingqing stopped boxing and saw that Bai Susu and Xiaotong came back a little late. He thought that the business was in trouble, so he stepped forward to ask .

Bai Susu smiled lightly and said, "The talk went well. The Bai family's crisis has been temporarily resolved. Qingqing, didn't you hear what your father said? Uncle Peng is also here today."

Peng Qingqing shook her head and said, "I haven't seen my father yet. Today he has been eating and drinking with the envoy from Jinling, but he hasn't come home. I'm worried that your talk won't go well, so I'll come here and wait for you to come back."

Bai Susu saw that Qingqing, who grew up with her and loved her like a sister, cared about her so much, she felt a little grateful, held Qingqing's hand, and sighed: "Qingqing, thank you for always caring so much. Me, support me, stand by me."

"Of course, who told you to be my sister Susu, let's be good sisters for life!" Peng Qingqing replied with a smile.

When Bai Susu heard this, she smiled slightly, she was very reassured towards Qingqing, she was chivalrous, simple in character, sharp in mouth and bean curd in heart, the two girls get together, one is active and the other is quiet, but they can get along well.

"Sister Susu, what are you holding?" Peng Qingqing took it casually and shook it a bit. It seemed empty inside, not like storing pearls, agates and other valuables.

"Marriage letter!" Bai Susu didn't intend to lie to this sister in her boudoir, because even if she didn't tell her, Qingqing would still know the news when she went to Su Chen's house later, so she simply confessed it first.

"Marriage letter? Sister Susu, are you getting married?" Peng Qingqing was extremely surprised.

Bai Susu spat: "Where did you think, of course not, this is the marriage letter between me and Su Chen, I brought it back."

Peng Qingqing was shocked and said: "You took back your marriage certificate? Could it be...you..."

Bai Susu said truthfully: "Su Chen and I have just broken off our engagement."

"Could it be that he broke off the engagement?" The reason why Peng Qingqing thought this way was because she had already noticed that Bai Susu had a little liking for Su Chen. She didn't take the initiative to break off the engagement when she hated him before. Now that she likes him, she won't take the initiative to propose If the engagement is terminated, then it can only be that Su Chen has withdrawn the engagement.

"This bastard is a wolf-hearted dog, I'm going to find him to settle the score!"

Peng Qingqing was a little angry, and she came up with the idea: Su Chen might have fallen in love with the brothel Hu Meizi, and that's why he broke off the engagement with Sister Susu.So, she was filled with righteous indignation, complained about injustice, and went to beat up that heartless person.

Bai Susu held back the "hateful" Peng Qingqing, and couldn't laugh or cry: "Why are you looking for him, don't blame him, I made this decision after discussions with him, in his words called friendly consultations."

"What's the reason?" Peng Qingqing frowned puzzled.

Bai Susu took her hand, sighed softly and said: "In the situation of the Bai family, grandpa is sick in bed, father's will is exhausted, second uncle eats inside and out, third uncle is embarrassing, and those distant cousins ​​are mostly five-year-olds." It’s hard to get along with the sidelines outside of the service, let alone pass on the position of Patriarch of the direct lineage to them.”

"Therefore, the Bai family can only be resisted by me for the time being. I can't marry him, and he... seems to be very resistant to marrying. This marriage is after all a moon in the water. You can see it, but you can't catch it. It's better to let go of it as soon as possible and communicate normally from now on. If I have a relationship with him, in the future, when the Bai family finds other juniors to be the helm, and Susu can marry out of the court, then we can consider marriage."

"But at that time, Su Chen had already married a wife and concubines, married and had children, it was too late." Peng Qingqing stomped her feet, a little anxious.

Bai Susu smiled, and said: "I have made three agreements with him, no, I proposed to ask him to do three things for me, without violating the way of benevolence and righteousness, without violating conscience and character, or something he can do..."

Hearing this, Peng Qingqing said subconsciously: "Why is it so familiar? Hey, didn't Zhao Min say this? Sister Susu, when did you learn it!"

Bai Susu looked picturesque, and said with a smile: "After dinner that night, he told you the legendary story of relying on the sky and slaying the dragon in the yard. I happened to hear that part too. At that time, I was only a daughter to Zhao Min, but I could Impressed by her character of controlling heroes and daring to love and hate, she proposed to do three things, which seems simple, but in fact it will be of great use in the future."

Peng Qingqing felt very reasonable. Even though she couldn't remember poems and songs, she had a good memory for martial arts stories. After listening to them once, she could still remember them vividly. She nodded and said, "Yes, the first thing Zhao Min wants to do is to watch it. The lion king's dragon-slaying sword caused a series of twists and turns, but it made Master Zhang suffer. Sister Susu, what is the first thing you ask him to do? He doesn't have a adoptive father on a desert island, let alone There is no treasure knife!"

Bai Susu smiled and said: "I don't practice martial arts, what kind of sword do I want! The first thing I propose is to restrain him from getting married for three years."

Peng Qingqing was dumbfounded, this is okay!

"But what about three years later?"

Bai Susu sighed: "I will try my best to arrange the family affairs within three years and find a suitable successor for the Bai family."

Peng Qingqing hesitated and said, "But the Bai family doesn't have a suitable candidate."

Bai Susu pondered for a moment, then said: "The third uncle's cousin Bai Hao is not bad, he is seven years old this year, he can be cultivated."

"He's only seven years old, and he's still very playful. What good can he do?" Peng Qingqing felt that the child was unreliable.

Bai Susu said: "As the saying goes, a famous teacher produces a good apprentice! I plan to find a teacher for him. If he makes progress within three years, then someone will choose the successor of the family!"

Peng Qingqing said strangely: "Didn't you say that he is so naughty that ordinary private school teachers can't teach him?"

Bai Susu said with a light smile: "Ordinary private school teachers can't do it, but if Su Chen comes to teach, maybe they can do it."

"Let Su Chen teach Bai Hao!" Peng Qingqing was stunned for a moment, but, thinking of Su Chen's reputation, it is more than enough to teach a child, and there is no need to worry about him misleading his children. Be a wit.

"Since you have decided, then I have no objection. How about this? I usually supervise the surnamed Su for my sister. If within three years, he dares to move on, I will beat him up!"

"What is empathy, it's so ugly to say; he and I, it's nothing." Bai Susu's cheeks were a little rosy, and she said insincerely.

"That's your ex-husband, no, it's your ex-fiance, you have to take care of it! Don't worry, it's all on me—" Peng Qingqing volunteered, with a cheerful expression and a bright smile, which made Bai Susu feel more and more worried .
