Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 347 Bai Hui

Li Xin was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer, and the expression on his face looked weird.

Naturally, Bai Hui saw it, paused for a moment before laughing and said, "I'm just saying this casually, Sister Li just listens as a joke."

Bai Hui took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I seldom go out to visit other people's homes. After a few years, in this lotus village, I have visited quite a few. It's just that I rarely see people like you. Sister Li, when others come to the house, they will make tea and deliver tea. This is the style of people in the town."

"My natal uncle and fifth aunt are from the town. They used to go there when I was young, so I learned a little bit." Li Xin gave a reason casually, and still told Bai Hui to choose one of Heng'er and Wu'er in her heart. I have lingering fears about being her daughter-in-law.

Bai Hui smiled generously: "Sister Li's natal family is also rich. According to my head, Sister Li's elder brother is the new head of the Li Family Village next door, just like the head of my family." Bai Hui smiled and said: "Li Family Village I haven't been there, and I'm not very familiar with it, but Lijia Village is adjacent to Hehua Village, and my head of the family also said that in the future, I will have to deal with the village chief of Lijia Village..."

Bai Hui narrowed her eyes slightly: "Sister Li has an easy-going temperament, and I think the eldest brother of the Li family is also easy-going."

Li Xin thought to herself, is it because of her brother that Bai Hui showed kindness to her?
There is nothing wrong with this. Li Dalang and Sun Hongyan are the new village chiefs of the two villages. Although they haven't officially taken office yet, I'm afraid it's time to worry about it. I want to see which village will develop better in the future?They're all young people, and they're all gearing up to make a big career out of it, so is Bai Hui... here to find out?
That's not right, how did you get to her here?It's impossible for her to know how her elder brother handles things and whether he has made any development plans.

Besides, the couple Sun Hongyan and Bai Hui didn't look like people who wanted to spy on the "secret".Although he knows people and faces but doesn't know his heart, Li Xin's intuition is like this. Sun Hongyan shouldn't have any bad intentions. When Hou's family came to make trouble that day, Sun Hongyan still helped them after all.

With a smile on his face, Li Xin nodded slightly to answer Bai Hui and said, "My elder brother is very gentle, and he rarely quarrels with others."

Bai Hui laughed: "After that, they must be friendly when dealing with each other."

Just saying that, Bai Hui stopped talking about Li Jiacun and Li Dalang, and started another topic to chat with Li Xin about other things. The two of you chatted speculatively, and the atmosphere was not good. too cold.

Bai Hui's two girls just sat obediently and listened to their conversation, biting the cakes with small mouths, with a slight smile on their faces, and occasionally the two little girls got together to say something, and then whispered Laugh out.

Bai Hui took another sip of tea, turned the topic back to the child, and asked Li Xin, "Your Yang'er looks plump, has a soft face, and walks very calmly. She should be in good health, right?"

Li Xin answered her with a light smile: "It's been more than half a year, if the body can't recover, how can I be worthy of his grandfather's spirit in the sky."

Bai Hui sighed: "I've heard about your son's background. There are not many good people like Brother Guan and Sister Li in the world."

"It's nothing."

Li Xin smiled, and asked Bai Hui back: "Sister Bai taught the two girls, Heng'er and Wu'er, very well. She was quiet and reserved at a young age, and she looked like a lady of everyone... Sister Bai's family must be very kind to her daughter. Education is also important, right?"

Li Xin didn't say that the Sun family attached great importance to their granddaughter's education, not because of other reasons, but because she and Bai Hui both understood that the Sun family had a Sun Xique, whose reputation was not good at all.The matter of Sun Xique also caused the marriage of Sun Hongyan's younger sister to fall through. Although it was vaguely heard later that because Sun Hongyan became the village head, the retiring family came to the door to say that the marriage would be settled, but Sun Hongyan refused. In addition, I found another family to marry my younger sister.

Because of this, Li Xin looked up to Sun Hongyan.He knows how to plan for his sister.Naturally, the in-laws who have retired are no longer available.

But this can't erase the fact that the Sun family has a bad reputation.

Thinking of this, Li Xin secretly raised her eyebrows.

Could it be because of this that Bai Hui wanted to book out her girl earlier?
However, Bai Hui suddenly seemed lonely.

Li Xin looked at Bai Hui, waiting for her to answer. Bai Hui glanced at Li Xin, lowered her head, and sighed after a long time, "People in the village guess what my natal family does, but no one knows. Although I I haven't been in contact with Sister Li for a long time, but I also know that Sister Li is definitely not a gossip."

Li Xin interrupted her calmly and said: "I said something that shouldn't be said, please don't take offense, Miss Bai, just pretend that I didn't say anything."

They just met twice, Madam Sun Family Village Chief, don't just want to confide in her like this!

Although she was curious about things, she would never want to know the secrets of other people's homes.If someone else finds out about it one day, it must be said that she passed it on, how wronged she is!
But Bai Hui smiled, brushed her hair and said, "Sister Li is really a person who doesn't like to meddle in other people's business, and doesn't gossip about others. Before I finished speaking, Sister Li knew what I was going to say."

Li Xin was immediately embarrassed. She thought that she had interrupted her quite normally, but she didn't expect Bai Hui to break it like this.

"Actually, there's nothing to say." Bai Hui smiled and said, "Hongyan has become the village head, and my natal family will always be dug out to find out."

Bai Hui folded her hands together and put them on the table, her voice fluttering: "I'm from the state capital, and my natal family can be regarded as a dignified family, and my father is a moderate official."

Li Xin was suddenly surprised.

She had thought that Bai Hui's natal family would not be simple, but she hadn't thought about it deeply, let alone expected that Bai Hui's father was an official!

"Sister Li, don't be surprised. She is said to be an official, but she is actually a petty official. She can't compare to the official position of the county magistrate, but just as the official in the capital seems to have a higher status than the local official. He is an official in the state capital. It is because others look at him highly, and because he is taking on a relatively important responsibility, it is considered a fat job, so there are too many people who flatter and curry favor with him."

Bai Hui smiled shallowly, and Li Xin couldn't help but said, "Then why are you, Miss Bai..."

"How could I marry Hongyan?"

Bai Hui shook her head slightly: "It can be considered fate. That year, I followed my mother and sisters to the Temple of the City God to offer incense. At that time, bandits were rampant. Unfortunately, I became a fat sheep in the eyes of others. The man was robbed and taken captive to the mountain. He happened to be passing by with a donkey and goods. Seeing that the situation was not right, he greeted other people in the same company and followed him up. Then, while they caught me crossing the river At that time, he took a stone and hit two of them in the eyes on the bank, and the others chased him, but because he was already in the forest and couldn't ride a horse, he ran so fast that others couldn't catch up, and he plotted against him. I suffered a loss. I ran away when I saw the opportunity, but then I got lost and fainted on the ground from exhaustion and hunger."

Li Xin couldn't help being fascinated, and couldn't help asking: "Then what happened next?"

A bit of shy memory appeared on Bai Hui's face: "Later when I woke up, I saw a person guarding me. His clothes were all torn by branches and branches, and there were some marks on his face that were scratched by trees. Later, I asked I just found out, he knew that I was a girl who couldn’t run very much. He waited at the mountain pass for a long time without seeing me, and then came back to look for me. When he found me, he saw that I was asleep and couldn’t bear to wake me up. Stay on the sidelines."

Bai Hui smiled softly, blushing: "Although it is scary to think about what happened, every time I think about it, I only feel happy in my heart. If I hadn't met those bandits, I would have How can I know Hongyan and marry him."

The most critical question lies here.Li Xin frowned slightly: "But since Sister Bai's natal family is so prestigious, how can Sister Bai's parents marry the eldest brother of the Sun family?"

"Because I'm a concubine." Bai Hui sighed lightly: "Father has many concubines and maidservants, as well as two concubines. The one who wins my father's heart and puts him by his side was recruited by my grandmother who wanted her father to take care of her natal family, and my father kept them all in his own room. I have many brothers and sisters, and they are all shorter than the original. I'm not the most outstanding, and I'm not as intelligent as others, among the children, my father only remembers my name and appearance, and I'm afraid he never cared about anything else."

Bai Hui took a sip of tea and continued, "When something like that happened, I went back in disheveled clothes. Naturally, my father and mother issued a seal order not to allow the servants in the mansion to talk about it. They also detained Hongyan in the mansion, lest he tell the story. It's not that I'm worried about my reputation, but at that time my sister-in-law is about to get married, it can be regarded as our high-ranking, and my parents are afraid that there will be any mistakes in this."

Bai Hui smiled wryly and said: "But because those bandits mistakenly thought I was my sister-in-law so they arrested me, it can be regarded as that I prevented the disaster for my sister-in-law, and my mother always behaved at home and outside. She is a magnanimous, virtuous wife and mother. I begged to go to her and said that I wanted to marry Hongyan. After a few words of persuasion, she agreed and happily told my father about it. I guess I didn't want to cause trouble , my father was worried about how to deal with me, and my mother was also worried about how to find a husband for me in the future, so she simply broke the pot and let me marry casually. It seems that this is the best way for me to get the best of both worlds. , Dad asked Hongyan to propose marriage, and then married me to come in."

Li Xin was stunned: "Then... the Sun family didn't ask?"

Bai Hui smiled, "Hongyan has always made up her mind at home. My father-in-law and mother-in-law are too late to be happy when they hear that they are the daughters of a rich family. Hongyan also said that my natal family does not allow their identities to be publicized, otherwise the Sun family will look good. Father-in-law and mother-in-law naturally all agree."
