Chapter 602 Unplanned
Nian Nian shook her head.

She took off her clothes and got under the quilt. As soon as her head touched the pillow, her eyes couldn't open. Bo Ling didn't ask any more questions, but just tucked the corner of the quilt for her.

Nian Nian held Bai Ling's hand, she had never dared to sleep alone before, so she waited in the room until now.

After a while, Bo Ling felt that Nian Nian's hand was slowly loosening.

She sat back at the table, poured herself a glass of water, and continued to wait for Bao Yuan to come back.

About half an hour later, there was a rustling sound outside, and the door was quietly pushed open—Bao Yuan came back.

Bo Ling stood up and greeted in a low voice, but this slight sound instantly made Baoyuan tremble with fright.

"Why are you here...?" Baoyuan's face suddenly turned pale, but under the dim light, Bai Ling couldn't see clearly.

Bo Ling stretched out his hand and stroked his lips, "The child is asleep, keep your voice down."

Bao Yuan looked at the bed where the gauze curtain had been put down, and then nodded.

"I suddenly thought of you, so I came to take a look." Bo Ling said softly, "I brought some seasonal fruits over and put them by the door."

Baoyuan turned her head and saw a small basket over there.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and then sat back at the table.

"Why did you come back so late," Bo Ling asked in a low voice, "Did they send you a lot of work?"

Baoyuan shook her head, "Today...it's true that I moved a little slower today."

Now that they are getting closer, Bai Ling looked at the vain panic on Bao Yuan's face, and frowned, "...Really?"

As soon as Bao Yuan saw Bai Ling frowned, she knew in her heart that the other party was suspicious, and she sighed, "Hey, I can't hide anything from you... Today I was really late because I was supposed to work. I was home last time, so—"

"What are you doing at home?"

Bao Yuan took out a money bag from her waist, "I hid the twenty Wen I earned before in a corner, last time I was in a hurry and forgot to take it, so..."

Burling breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why do you need it for twenty Wen?" Bai Ling whispered, "Do you still remember the little girl who was killed by Lin Jieyu back then? She died because of a hairpin."

"I know." Baoyuan lowered her head, "But it's all hard-earned money, so I put it there for nothing... I don't want to. It's okay, I went back in the dark, and there was no one at home—"

Nian Nian turned over on the bed, and Bao Yuan's voice stopped abruptly.

The eyes of the two turned to the bed at the same time, but Nian Nian did not wake up, and everything returned to tranquility.

"Anyway, I'm safe." Baoyuan smiled helplessly.

"Okay... I suddenly remembered something just now, and I also want to talk to Sister Baoyuan to ask what you mean." Bai Ling said in a low voice.

"what's up?"

"I would like to ask Sister Baoyuan to take care of the new recruits recently recruited by the Lanzihao."

Baoyuan froze for a moment, pointed at herself and said, "Me?"

"Yeah." Bo Ling nodded, "They are all homeless, and Baihuaya is such a notorious place... I guess everyone will feel panic and worry when they first arrive. Sister Baoyuan, are you Those who understand this kind of mood, I think for everyone, no matter how many slogans they shout, it is not as reliable as seeing a real role model."

"...I," Bao Yuan sighed, "I'm not a good role model."

"No one can be the best at the beginning." Bai Ling said softly, "If you are willing to go, I will ask Feng Qi to arrange a new position for you tomorrow. You also have experience in leading people in the palace before. It should be easier for you."

Bao Yuan hesitated.

"Of course, the monthly rate will be higher than it is now." Bai Ling whispered, "After all, it will be considered as a management post."

"...how much taller?" Bao Yuan asked with some doubts.

"I don't know the rules of Lanzihao," Bai Ling said softly, "I think a [-]% increase should be more reasonable."

"Okay, then I'll try." Bao Yuan nodded, "But... I can't guarantee how well I can do it."

Bo Ling smiled, "It's fine as before when I was in the palace."

That night, after seeing Bo Ling off, Bao Yuan closed the door with a complicated expression on her face.

She walked to the mirror with a candle lamp in her hand, carefully brushed her long hair, and looked at the side of her neck, where there was a streak of dark purple peach blossoms.

Baoyuan sighed, and fiddled with the collar again, covering them all up.

She put the candle aside, and then faced the mirror to do her makeup. In the mirror, there were already some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. She tried to smile, and the fine lines under her eyes that were only faintly visible immediately became apparent.

This face has begun to age slowly, no longer young.

Putting down the comb, the thin silver bracelet on Baoyuan's wrist touched the table, making a slight sound. She looked down at the bracelet, and pressed her lips tightly again, as if she had made up her mind again.

……

When Bo Ling returned to the house, he saw a letter pressed by a teacup on the table as soon as he entered the door.

Bo Ling stepped forward to take a closer look—the envelope looked like a yamen envelope, but there was no signature on it.

She guessed that Mr. Zheng sent someone to deliver the letter, so she opened the letter and read it—sure enough.

Holding the letter in both hands, Bo Ling paced slowly in the room. From Zheng Mi's letter, she learned that the more than 20 children who left the Huzi shop had been taken over by the inner court and handed over to the people for adoption.

Zheng Mi comforted Bo Ling in the letter. He was quite aware of the set of procedures for adoption by the inner court. When he finally connected with the folks, he still had to go through the Jingzhaoyin Yamen—he would keep an eye on this matter, so at least this The future of more than 20 children will not have any major problems.

Zheng Mi also wrote in the letter that when the palace came, he was playing games with his little daughter.Thinking of how many girls in those flower kilns in Baihuaya had never surfaced, he felt extremely worried.

At the same time, this matter has been raised to the level of "the face of the Tian family". Zheng Mi suggested that Bai Ling should not have any active involvement. If there is definite news later, I hope she can be like this. The same as the next time.

This matter is far from over, and he will come to find a solution for the rest.

Putting down the letter, Bo Ling sighed with emotion.

In the middle of the night, she stood alone on the promenade outside the house, and she couldn't remember how many times she overlooked the thousands of lights here.

The wind blew over with laughter from a distance, and Bai Ling looked far away, speechless for a moment.

"Are you here alone in a daze again?" A voice suddenly came from above her head, "It's been a long time since I saw you, Xiao Siyao looks much better."

Bo Ling was stunned for a moment, then raised his head, and saw a familiar shadow hanging upside down on the eaves. He was dressed in night clothes, and when he was silent, he almost blended into the night.

"Master Wei..." Bo Ling was a little surprised, "You're back!"
