Glory all the way

Chapter 146
"Today is neither the first day nor the fifteenth day of the junior high school. Why are you holding a banquet in Qing'an Hall?"

In the evening, when Bai Yingluo came back from Mingcuiju, seeing that the courtyard of Qing'an Hall was full of people coming and going, she was a little surprised and asked about Tassel.

Liusu smiled and replied with crooked eyes: "Miss, the announcements of the three major academies were posted early this morning. In Qingsong Academy, Mr. Du and Master Xue Biao won the first and second places respectively. In Jingdu Academy, The young master's grades this time are also at the top. When the news came back, the old master was very happy, so he said that we are having dinner in Qing'an hall today, and sent someone to the academy to invite Mr. Du and Biao Xue back."

"Really?"

Bai Yingluo's face was overjoyed, and her heart also burst into joy as if she was honored.

She knew that Du Xuan's knowledge, no matter where he went, would not be buried. Now, he has only entered Qingsong Academy for half a year, but he is better than those students who have studied hard for several years. In his heart, he is also happy to learn more things in his school, right?
Can't help but look forward to next year's exam, Bai Yingluo lay on the soft couch, looking at the dappled sunlight on the window, her eyes full of longing.

Arrived at Qing'an Hall at dinner time, sure enough, the room was as lively as New Year's Eve.

When Bai Yingluo entered the room, Old Master Bai was sitting at the top, listening to Bai Jinju and Bai Jinxiao's reply. The results of the two people this time were no different from the previous ones, but because of the good results of Bai Jinyuan and Du Xuan Xue Zhe , Old Master Bai didn't teach too much, and asked them to ask Du Xuan and Xue Zhe more questions about their teaching in the future, and then turned their heads.

On the other side, Du Xuan and Xue Zhe also looked happy, but they have calmed down because they have been complimented and praised since they got up early and released the rankings.

Mrs. Xue ordered the servants and maids to prepare the banquet, and when everything was ready in the side hall, Fang came to the main room to invite Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Bai to the table, and all the people walked out along the opened curtain, looking at Xue Zhe Seeing the modest young face and the energetic smile of the eldest son, Xue's heart was filled with relief.

Jing'an Hou and others accompanied Old Master Bai and Mrs. Bai to sit on the round table at the top, and the rest of the people, male and female, sat at a separate table.

At the table where the young masters were, except for Du Xuan, everyone else was dressed in brocade robes. Because of the brocade clothes and food, at first glance, they all looked dignified and imposing.

Du Xuan was sitting between Xue Zhe and Bai Jinju. Although he was wearing a simple and plain cotton robe, his body exuded an indifferent and elegant temperament, which was not compared by the two of them at all. Some stand out from the rest of the crowd, people can notice him at a glance when they look over.

Thinking of Bai Yingyun always bringing herself and Du Xuan together to make fun of Du Xuan, the whole night, Bai Yingluo either talked to Jia Shi or teased Brother Kun, without even glancing at the neighboring table .

Bai Yingyun, who originally planned to catch Bai Yingluo, couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

But looking at Bai Yingluo, who was wearing a peach-red long dress with peach blossoms on her face, and looking at the extremely shabby Du Xuan, Bai Yingyun was secretly a little excited when she thought of the future.

At the main table, Old Master Bai was in a good mood and had a drink with his sons.

The faces of the Marquis of Jing'an and the Xue family were filled with uncontrollable joy. Everyone thought it was because of the family reunion today, and Bai Jinyuan's grades were also good in the exam. is what happened.

"Brother, sister-in-law, maybe some happy event happened at home? Look at the joy in your eyes, tell us about it, so that we can be happy together."

The second lady turned around and took the soup from the maid, and placed them respectfully in front of Old Master Bai and Mrs. Bai one by one. When she returned to her seat, the second lady turned her head and asked.

Sure enough, everyone raised their eyes suspiciously, and their gazes focused on the faces of Marquis Jing'an and Mrs. Xue.

Mrs. Xue laughed more and more, but she just smiled and said nothing. Jing'an Hou paused, and said with a smile: "In the past few days, there has been a decree of kindness in the palace, and the position of the son of Jinyuan is considered It’s recorded, maybe there will be an errand.”

"Oh, that's really a great joy, congratulations brother, congratulations sister..."

Words of congratulations continued, Jing'an Hou smiled, turned his head to look at the neighboring table, the men also poured wine and tea, and congratulated Bai Jinyuan.

Among them, the smile on Jia Shi's face is the most gentle.

"Congratulations, sister-in-law, this is just the beginning of a good life in the future."

Bai Yingluo grabbed Brother Kun's arm, let the little guy stand on her lap, turned her head and talked affectionately to Jia Shi.

Jia Shi pursed her lips and smiled, then nodded to Bai Yingluo.

Looking back, at the main table, the fourth master and others had already asked what kind of errand Bai Jinyuan would accept. In the Vanguard Battalion, this is probably settled, but this position still depends on the grace of the superior."

After the words were finished, the house became even more noisy. The second master and the fourth master congratulated Bai Jinyuan repeatedly. Bai Jinyuan had already drank some wine, and his face was already a little drunk. Those friends chatted and drank, and they also gained a bit of confidence, and suddenly looked forward to it.

The laughter of the children and grandchildren filled my ears, and seeing their smiling and happy faces, old master Bai and old lady Bai smiled at each other, their eyes filled with contentment.

Although his eyes were cloudy, after drinking a few glasses of wine, they seemed to be somewhat clearer. Old Master Bai looked at Xue Zhe and Du Xuan secretly, hesitating in his heart.

The old lady Bai raised her eyes to notice, was startled for a moment, then turned her gaze away calmly.

After the banquet, when I returned to Qing'an Hall, I felt deserted all of a sudden. The old lady Bai sat on the soft couch holding Qiuwen's hand, waved to her, and when the room calmed down, the old lady looked back at Bai The old man asked: "Both of them are brothers, the old man is a little shaken?"

It's no surprise that the old lady Bai would see through her own thoughts. The old lady Bai smiled, "In the past, I thought the same as you. I thought that if he married Sister Luo, the family population would be simpler, and the life of the young couple would be more beautiful. Not to be disturbed by other people and other things. But today, the whole family is gathered together, and I thought again, if the married daughter does not return to her mother's house during the new year and festivals, wouldn't they be alone? And is this what Sister Luo wants?"

"So, you hesitated? However, if I say a word, you will definitely not hesitate."

The old lady Bai said with determination, seeing that the old lady Bai seemed a little disbelieving, the smile on her face narrowed, "Xue Zhe came back to the Hou Mansion for the first time with his mother, and I immediately fell in love with him. I think the two families are closely related. Even if we know that Sister Luo has no father or mother, but with us, Shi Zhong and Jinyuan around, the Xue family will definitely not treat Sister Luo lightly."

As she said that, the old lady Bai seemed to think of the scene when she was chatting with Mrs. Xue.

At that time, she just tried a word, but Xue was like a big enemy, as if Bai Yingluo was some kind of scourge. The old lady Bai felt a little displeased when she thought about it, "I asked, Shizhong's wife said, her father Mother loves Xue Zhe the most, and it is her elder brother and sister-in-law. Although Xue Zhe is not the eldest son, she has high expectations. The implication is that our sister Luo will drag Xue Zhe down. Hello brother Zhe, I admit it, But what's wrong with our sister Luo? So, from then on, even if brother Zhe is a good one, I won't think about getting married anymore."

Old Master Bai sighed faintly, "No wonder you don't pick up on Xue Zhe every time I mention it. Hey, I thought that after marrying into Xue's family, Sister Luo would not be so lonely because she would be taken care of by her elders. , but I think left."

Parents all over the world hope that their children can have a good home. Today's Bai Yingluo, whether she is high or low, where is her happy home?

A few more long sighs, the old master Bai and the old lady Bai did not say any more, but they couldn't bear to think that Bai Yingluo was about to reach the end.

The night gradually deepened.

In Lanxin Pavilion, Bai Yingluo tossed and turned, Du Xuan's smiling eyes were all in front of her eyes.

"Luo Niang, you will get Shuxiu tomorrow, let's go to the market and make you two new clothes..."

"Luo Niang, when we have a child in the future, a boy, I will personally enlighten him. When he wins the first prize in the exam, I will give you an imperial order and let you enjoy happiness. If it is a girl, I will teach her how to draw. If you teach her to be a female celebrity, she will definitely become the most beautiful girl in all the villages, and the people who come to propose marriage will trample down the threshold..."

"Luo Niang, when we get old, we will put two rocking chairs under the big pagoda tree in the yard. Let's lie on the rocking chairs and watch our grandchildren play in the yard..."

"Mother Luo..."

Recalling what Du Xuan said in the previous life, even in her sleep, there was a smile on Bai Yingluo's lips.

Waking up early the next day, Bai Yingluo had washed and dressed, and was about to go to Qing'an Hall. As soon as she left the courtyard gate of Cheng Huan Residence, she saw Gu Xiang walking quickly from a distance.

"Miss Six, there are people coming from the palace, Madam invites you to the front yard."

Gu Xiang saluted and stood up.

Nodding her head, she turned her head and ordered Liusu to answer in front of her grandmother. Bai Yingluo followed Gu Xiang towards Ming Yayuan, and asked as she walked, "Which palace is this person from?"

"If you go back to Miss Six, it's a female official from Ninghua Palace."

Gu Xiang replied.

I thought it was someone from the Eastern Palace, Lin Zhimei had something to tell her, but it turned out to be the Empress's Ninghua Palace. From this point of view, it must be the Sixth Princess who sent a letter back.

Involuntarily, Bai Yingluo's face was filled with joy.

The person who came was Yaohua who was beside the empress, and when she saw Bai Yingluo, Yaohua respectfully greeted her, then handed a brocade box out of the palace to Bai Yingluo and said: "Miss Bai, the Sixth Princess has sent a letter, please clarify." This box is for you, the Empress ordered the servants to deliver it in person, please keep it."

With a sinking hand, Bai Yingluo handed it to Liu Ying behind her.

Kneeling down on the ground and bowing in the direction of the palace, Bai Yingluo got up and asked, "Is everything okay, sixth princess?"

Hearing this, the smile on Yaohua's face deepened, "The sixth princess is overjoyed, she is already pregnant, and she will give birth in June, so now the palace is in a hurry, the empress ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare some gifts, I need to send someone to Da'an. The departure will start in mid-April, if Miss Six has a letter for Princess Six, you might as well prepare it in advance and bring it to Princess Six for you."

"The sixth princess is happy?"

Bai Yingluo was surprised.
