Glory all the way

Chapter 287
"Xiuniang didn't give Bai Ling a good face, and she said something reasonable to her. In the end, Bai Ling said something harsh, and then took the people away. The few cars that came together The carriages also drove back as they were.”

In Yixin Garden, Liuying treated the news she inquired about as if it were something interesting to Bai Yingluo.

Bai Ling mobilized everyone to go to Bai Xiu's place, carrying several carts of gifts, thinking that in front of Bai Yingluo, Bai Xiu would not dare to act presumptuously in front of the master's house, and if she could ease the relationship between the donkey and Bai Xiu, in the future Bai Yingluo No matter how much Xiu wants to repent, it may not be easy.

What Bai Ling didn't expect was that Bai Yingluo was not as strict with Bai Xiu as the general masters are with their servants, but with a kind of unconditional tolerance. Therefore, Bai Yingluo's attitude towards Bai Xiu after Bai Yingluo left made Bai Ling even more Think she is reckless.

Originally, along with the few carts of gifts, there were also two nimble little maids and two honest nurses. Bai Ling wanted to sell them well so that Bai Xiu could enjoy the blessing of being a housewife. , Bai Xiu completely disregarded the sisterhood in the past, and the words in her mouth were even more ruthless.

And what she saw in the courtyard of Bai Xiu's house also made Bai Ling a little unbelievable. She always thought that Bai Xiu was just a daughter-in-law who was proud in front of the master's house. Hu Houyong, those who don't know it, will definitely think that she is the young wife of a big family in the village.

Even compared to herself, she is not too far behind.

No, I still have strict in-laws and calculating sisters-in-law to deal with, but Bai Xiu doesn't. Her in-laws are now careful in everything, even when they arrive at Bai Xiu's house, they only hang around their grandson Xiaoshitou, and they don't know how to find white things at all. It's not that beautiful, but Bai Xiu's sisters-in-law now all have to look at her face, let alone dare to find fault.

Today's Bai Xiu is even worse than herself.

On the way back, Bai Ling's expression changed several times.

Although she uttered a harsh word, when she thought about it now, she realized that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't make Bai Xiu look good. Bai Xiu was no longer the gentle lady of the Bai family who could be bullied by others. Now, She is the proud daughter-in-law of Mrs. Zhuangyuan in Beijing, and the lady in charge of Baijiazhuang. Everyone will act according to her face.

Even the Sun Mansion, known as the Emperor of Earth, was the same.

The more she thought about it, the colder she felt, Bai Ling leaned weakly in the corner of the carriage, her face full of depression.

Liuying talked lively, and Chen Xiang at the side knew the whole story from Liusu, and she also looked relieved, but Bai Yingluo's heart was not easy.

She is Luo Niang of the Bai family, so Bai Xiu's current mood is generally the same as hers.

The sisters who were originally close relatives, but now they are full of calculations and use, whether it is Bai Xiu or the second elder of the Bai family, they must be extremely distressed, right?And Bai Ling not only didn't know how to repent, but also took it for granted that it was their fault that others rejected her. Such a Bai Ling would only further alienate Bai Xiu and the two elders of the Bai family.

And every point of estrangement, Bai Xiu and the two elders of the Bai family will feel more pain in their hearts.

"Hey……"

Looking at the warm sunlight outside the window, Bai Yingluo sighed deeply.

Even after being reborn, even knowing what happened in the previous life, there are still some things that cannot be avoided. For the first time, Bai Yingluo felt such a powerless feeling in her heart.

Sighing secretly, Chen Xiang came in from the outside, holding a post in his hand.

The post was sent from Wengzhu Jiamin's mansion, saying that Ruozhen Ruozhu wanted to come to Zhuangyuan's mansion to play.

Thinking of the lively and lovely pair of sisters, Bai Yingluo was overjoyed, after reading the post, she ordered Chen Xiang to respond, and tipped the woman who came to send the post.

In an hour's time, Ruozhen and Ruozhu arrived, and they still followed Shen's mother every step of the way.

The two sisters asked to see the little brother, Bai Yingluo smiled, then turned around and ordered the wet nurse to bring brother Yan.

The little guy was still asleep, with his fists tightly clenched on his chubby cheeks. When he breathed, his thick eyelashes fluttered slightly like the wings of a butterfly. He looked extremely cute.

"He's so pretty..."

Signing to Bai Yingluo, Ruozhu kissed Brother Yan on the cheek while the people around her were not paying attention.

She raised her head, facing Bai Yingluo's smiling eyes.

Smiling shyly, Ruozhu became more and more courageous, and stretched out her hand to hold Brother Yan's hand, Ruozhu shook it, and even touched his head affectionately.

Behind her, Shen's mother anxiously wanted to stop her, but it was difficult for Bai Yingluo to say anything, and seeing that Bai Yingluo did not show a displeased expression, Shen's mother was relieved.

The two sisters looked at Brother Yan for quite a while, but the little guy hadn't woken up yet. Seeing that Ruozhu was pouting and getting impatient, Bai Yingluo coaxed with a smile, "My brother is still sleeping, I can't sleep until later." Wake up, Ruozhen and Ruozhu go to play on the swing first, and then play with my brother when he wakes up, okay?"

After a moment of hesitation, the two sisters looked at each other and nodded together.

Bai Yingluo ordered Liusu to take a few maidservants to serve the two sisters to the swing in the backyard, and Shen's mother followed behind, a little hesitant in her steps, while turning her head to look at Bai Yingluo.

Bai Yingluo paused in her heart.

In the time of a cup of tea, Shen's mother left and returned.

"But have something to tell me?"

Bai Yingluo pointed to Xiao Wuzi in front of her to let her sit down, and asked nervously.

Mother Shen hesitated for a moment, and said with some hesitation: "When I went back that day, my servant carefully recalled what happened at that time, but there was nothing special, so I wanted to come and talk to Madam to see if Madam would find anything. .”

As she said that, Shen's mother said sadly: "I hope that what happened back then can be revealed, even if there is a little clue, so that I can find my partner."

"Speak slowly, and say what comes to mind. It doesn't matter. One more person means one more idea. Maybe others will find out what's wrong with things that you think are commonplace."

Bai Yingluo encouraged.

Nodding her head, Shen's mother spoke carefully, "That year, after the Qingming Festival, the town suddenly became lively, and there were many people on the street, but they didn't look like common people with scrutiny. , as if looking for someone. At night, you can often hear the sound of chickens and dogs barking nearby, as if someone is searching for something from house to house."

A trace of reminiscence floated on her face, and the low voice of Shen's mother made Bai Yingluo's thoughts drift to Qingquan Town thousands of miles away.

"It only took more than a month to clean up, and the town returned to its former orderly order, so we didn't take it seriously. Later, I went back to Bangcheng to visit my parents-in-law, passing through Shihui Town When I was in Changshui Town, in a teahouse on the side of the road, I heard someone talking about the anomalies in the town. It was the same as when I was in Qingquan Town. There were also people searching for something in the city. However, those people were very secretive, it seemed Don't want anyone to find out what they're looking for."

"When I returned to Bengcheng, I heard from my parents-in-law that Duoji was transferred by the officers and soldiers to go into the sea to catch mussels. Not long after, the incident happened in Bengcheng. Almost overnight, Bengcheng became a sea of ​​flames. There were no survivors, and the explanation given by the government was that the epidemic had broken out and the infection spread extremely quickly, in order to prevent the people in Changshui and other surrounding towns from being affected, they made such a hasty and effective decision."

"Although the common people were skeptical, the imperial court not only did not punish the government of Bengcheng, but also received a commendation from the provincial capital. Therefore, the common people believed it. The thing about Bengcheng has been going on for so many years, that is, there are still some rumors in private. Suspicious rumors, on the surface, are all thought to be emergency measures taken because of the outbreak of the epidemic."

Having said that, it was over, and Mother Shen took a deep breath to calm down her sad mood.

Her man was killed in the sea, and her elderly parents-in-law were killed in the sea of ​​fire. Only she, because she was just pregnant, was taken back to her natal family by her mother, so she escaped the catastrophe.

Looking up at Bai Yingluo, Shen's mother whispered, "Ma'am, that's all I know."

Bai Yingluo didn't seem to hear what she said, and was immersed in her wild thoughts.

According to Ou Hao and Huang Wenlin, those people slaughtered the fishermen in the coastal fishing village of Bangcheng because they didn't catch enough pearls for their business and vented their anger temporarily.

But now, from what Shen's mother said, it seems that those people are looking for someone,

If what Shen's mother said is true, can it be understood that the person those people are looking for is hiding in Yuzhuang, but because there is no way to catch him alive in a short time, those people would rather kill him by mistake The principle of not letting go of one in a thousand, massacred everyone in the fishing village?
The more she thought about it, the more frightening Bai Yingluo felt, and the truth seemed more confusing.

"Then have you ever heard people say, who are they looking for?"

Bai Yingluo came back to her senses and asked Shen's mother.

After hesitating for a while, Shen's mother smiled wryly and said, "It's all made up by people who are bored, and there are countless things to do."

"It's okay, you can just talk about it casually. If we don't take it seriously, we will have it? Besides, sometimes, the truth is hidden in it."

With a relieved smile, Bai Yingluo comforted Shen's mother.

Thinking back, Shen's mother said: "Some people said that it was the people from the government who discovered the remnants of the evil cult, and they were afraid that those people would incite the people and it would be difficult to arrest them, so they secretly searched for them. Others said that it was the favored young man in the general's mansion. The concubine ran away with his subordinates, and the general was furious, and his family ugliness could not be publicized, so people searched for it quietly. Some people said that the prince of a neighboring country wandered to Bengcheng, and the Lingnan commander wanted to take the opportunity to find the prince. Blackmail the neighboring country, or simply go to the neighboring country to become king."

Seemingly feeling that the last statement involved Lingnan Commander-in-Chief was not good, Shen's mother looked at Bai Yingluo with some embarrassment.

In Bai Yingluo's mind, she suddenly remembered a sentence that Ou Hao said before.
