Glory all the way

Chapter 293 teasing
During the few days of being cold, Du Xuan felt a little uneasy in his heart. Therefore, even though Bai Yingluo was really lying beside him at night, Du Xuan felt that she was thousands of miles away from him.

Now that the awkward quarrel has been frozen, the two of them are naturally sweet and tender.

When she got up early the next day, it was already bright outside, Bai Yingluo sat up and took the honey water from Chen Xiang and sipped it in small mouthfuls, but her eyelids were still a little heavy, her waist and legs were so sore like lead.

Thinking of Du Xuan's nonsense last night, Bai Yingluo couldn't help but blushed again, drank a few sips of water, and then calmed down a little.

After getting up to freshen up and having breakfast, seeing that the sun was shining outside, Bai Yingluo was hesitating about what to do when she received a post from Zhou Guogong's mansion.

The post was sent by Sun Yantong, inviting Bai Yingluo to go shopping together, saying that she wanted to go and relax.

Thinking that she had something to worry about and that Bai Yingluo had nothing important to do, she complied.

In the afternoon, Sun Yantong came looking for her, and the woman beside her came in to spread the word that Sun Yantong would not come in, and that Bai Yingluo would go out when she was ready, and there was no need to prepare additional carriages and horses.

Bai Yingluo went out with Liusu and Liuying, and there were two carriages parked in the alleyway of Duke Zhou's mansion.

Let Liusu and Liuying go to the last carriage to sit with Sun Yantong's maid, and Bai Yingluo got into the first carriage along the raised curtain.

Seeing that Sun Yantong didn't have any worries on her face, Bai Yingluo asked jokingly, "Are you quarreling with brother-in-law Zhou? If it's okay, I'll annoy you. I'm not like before. I can go out as I like. Brother Yan is by my side. Not mine."

Squinting her beautiful almond eyes, Sun Yantong glared at Bai Yingluo and said, "Are you still expecting us to quarrel and quarrel? Besides, if you have a son, you don't want sisters anymore?"

Saying that, Sun Yantong complained to Bai Yingluo and said, "You know that I like Brother Yan very much, why don't you hold him together? We only go to jewelry and clothing stores, so we won't be too busy."

Bai Yingluo dealt with it with a smile, stared closely at Sun Yantong and asked, "You haven't said anything yet, what's the matter? I don't believe you will ask me to go out to play for no reason."

Two blushes suddenly appeared on her face, and Sun Yantong said in a voice like a mosquito: "He said that I serve my mother-in-law every day, and I haven't gone out for a long time. He was afraid that I would be bored at home, so he asked me to make an appointment with a good sister. Go out and relax. I can't hold him back, so I sent you a post."

Bai Yingluo's smile suddenly overflowed from her eyes.

It has been nearly three months since they got married, and Sun Yantong and Zhou Yunqing are still as good as newlyweds, Bai Yingluo is really happy for Sun Yantong from the bottom of her heart, but in her mouth, Bai Yingluo jokes narrowly, until she gets off the carriage, Sun Yantong's face is flushed Yes, it adds a bit of coquettishness.

Since the birth of Brother Yan, Bai Yingluo has put all her heart on her son. Except for returning to Jing'an Hou Mansion, she seldom goes out on weekdays. To my heart's content, I had a great time shopping with Sun Yantong.

After more than an hour, the two of them ordered the maids to carry more than a dozen brocade boxes, large and small, into the carriage.

"It's almost there? When your mother-in-law sees you buying so many things, she must think that you spend a lot of money and are not a thrifty housekeeper."

When paying the bill, Bai Yingluo joked about Sun Yantong again.

With a smile on her lips, Sun Yantong said proudly, "My father-in-law is kind, my mother-in-law is kind, they all treat me very well. Before going out, my mother-in-law even specially told me to buy more things I like, don't be reluctant to spend money Woolen cloth."

What's more, among them was a unique agate hairpin and a dark red eight-treasure pattern brocade, which Sun Yantong picked out for her mother-in-law. When she went back and saw that Mrs. Zhou was only happy, how could she blame her?

Bai Yingluo pursed her lips and snickered, suddenly remembered something, whispered something in Sun Yantong's ear, and immediately, Sun Yantong's face was stained with red again.

After shopping around the shop and buying something they like, both of them are satisfied.

Sun Yantong took Bai Yingluo's arm affectionately, and said flatteringly, "Tian Wai Tian Tea House has released a few signature dim sums, and it's the time when they are freshly baked. Let's go there to rest for a while, drink some tea and eat some snacks, but good?"

Bai Yingluo showed hesitation, as if she was worried about her brother Yan at home, Sun Yantong looked at her pitifully and said, "Brother Yan is the most obedient, he must not wake up so soon, it's rare for us to come out."

Don't know when will be the next time to go out, Bai Yingluo nodded hesitantly.

Tianwaitian Tea House is located on the main road of East Avenue in Beijing. It is a small three-story building. The first floor is the lobby, which is neatly arranged with square ancient wooden tea tables and chairs. The second and third floors are elegant seats.

Bai Yingluo heard Du Xuan mention it several times, saying that the tea and snacks here are excellent. It is said that the water for making tea is the spring water sent from the mountains in the outskirts.

The owner of Tianwaitian invited a few dim sum masters from Jiangnan with a lot of money, and the dim sum they made was soft and delicious, which was very popular with the ladies and ladies in the capital, and the dim sum was sold out as soon as it came out of the oven. , There will even be a long queue in front of the teahouse, waiting for the dim sum to be baked and bought for the family.

The decor in the private room is clean and elegant. When you open the window, you can just see the street outside. Although it is only on the third floor, it still feels somewhat open-minded.

Bai Yingluo could not help but praise a few words.

The tea was really mellow and delicious, and the desserts were as eloquent as people said. After Bai Yingluo ate some, she ordered Tassel to pack a box and sent it to the Jing'an Hou Mansion for Old Master Bai and Old Lady Bai.

After eating and drinking enough, Sun Yantong and Bai Yingluo were ready to go back.

As soon as he opened the door of the private room, he ran into Dou Xiuqiao who came out from the opposite side.

Beside Dou Xiuqiao, there were two other young wives, presumably, they were also handkerchiefs from her.

Calling unlucky, Bai Yingluo nodded and smiled as a greeting, and pulled Sun Yantong down the steps and out the door, but unexpectedly, Dou Xiuqiao over there did not intend to let Bai Yingluo go.

Speeding up her pace, she caught up with Bai Yingluo and her group. Dou Xiuqiao went out and called Bai Yingluo with her voice, "Mrs. Du stay..."

With some helplessness in her eyes, Bai Yingluo glanced at Sun Yantong, and the two turned around with cold faces, and greeted Dou Xiuqiao respectively.

They all used to accompany the Sixth Princess to study, so they had the friendship of classmates, but Dou Xiuqiao assigned Sun Yantong to Bai Yingluo's side, and naturally contradicted her.

However, whether it is Yanping uncle's mansion or Zhou Guogong's mansion, Dou Xiuqiao cannot offend her. Therefore, although Dou Xiuqiao is secretly angry, she does not dare to disrespect Sun Yantong.

But to Bai Yingluo, Dou Xiuqiao was not so polite.

"How is Mrs. Du these days?"

Asking politely, Dou Xiuqiao had a kind of fiery smile in her eyes.

Not knowing where her pride came from, Bai Yingluo nodded and smiled, "I've always been fine, thank you Mrs. Fang for your concern."

"Oh? If that's the case, then Mrs. Du is really lucky. Everyone says that it's true to be ordinary. I don't know if Mrs. Du thinks her life is ordinary now?"

Dou Xiuqiao asked with a smile.

Thinking of Brother Yan, she couldn't help but see her son crying loudly, his face flushed red, Bai Yingluo didn't bother to deal with her, she answered "Yes" with a smile, and leaned over to give a blessing He said: "I'm thinking about my son, so I won't stay here too long. If Mrs. Fang is free, welcome to Du's residence as a guest."

Thinking that Bai Yingluo was mentioning her son on purpose and mocking her that she was not pregnant so far, Dou Xiuqiao couldn't help but change her expression.

Staring at Bai Yingluo, Dou Xiuqiao sneered and said, "It's true that you don't hear anything out of the window. Mrs. Du only cares about her son who is waiting to be fed, but don't forget to care about her husband. When did the two fresh and tender Xieyu flowers become Madam Du's nightmare."

It seems that Dou Xiuqiao knew about the fact that the envoy sent Na Duo and A Nuo to the Zhuangyuan Mansion.

No wonder her eyes are full of complacency, maybe she is just waiting to laugh at herself and see her embarrassment?

Du Xuan had already explained this matter to himself, so Bai Yingluo would not be entangled any more. Now that Dou Xiuqiao talked about it, Bai Yingluo naturally wouldn't have the slightest grudge in her heart.

"Thank you, Madam Fang, for your concern. However, each of you should sweep the snow in front of your own door, and don't care about others. My life is very good, don't worry, Madam Fang will remember it."

Saying that, Bai Yingluo turned her head to look at Sun Yantong, and the two of them tacitly nodded to Dou Xiuqiao to greet her, then turned and walked towards the direction where the carriage stopped.

Dou Xiuqiao was rather unwilling to see Bai Yingluo's embarrassment, but thinking of Bai Yingluo's temperament, if Du Xuan wanted to take a concubine, there would be a lot of trouble in the Zhuangyuan Mansion. Seeing Bai Yingluo make a fool of himself, Dou Xiuqiao felt a little happy again.

Satisfied, she turned and left. In the carriage, Dou Xiuqiao couldn't help humming a ditty in a low voice.

Back at the General's Mansion, seeing the two charming orchids in the conference hall, Dou Xiuqiao couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing those two respectfully bowing to her in accordance with the rules of the Great Song Dynasty, Dou Xiuqiao felt as if an unknown fire had sprung up in her heart, leaving her nowhere to vent, and her face flushed red.

But in the end, it was sent to Fang Congjiang, and he dealt with it rashly, and it would be worthless to be blamed by him later, so Dou Xiuqiao endured the anger in his heart.

Sitting blankly in the conference hall, waiting until Fang Congjiang came back, he was already so drunk that he couldn't ask a word, Dou Xiuqiao helplessly ordered the maid to help him back to the house.

The whole second day, Dou Xiuqiao felt that her heart was on fire, which made her restless.

As long as she thinks of those two orchids' slim figures and charming eyes, Fang Congjiang's soul will not stay at home, and Dou Xiuqiao can't wait to scratch their faces and throw them into the Goulan courtyard.

But even though she is the mistress of the general's mansion, she has no right to report the affairs of the outer courtyard, so Dou Xiuqiao is a little discouraged.

After waiting for a whole day, Fang Congjiang didn't return. Looking at the attendant who came back to deliver the message, Dou Xiuqiao asked in a bad tone, "Where did Master go?"

The attendant looked up at Dou Xiuqiao with some fear, and replied respectfully: "I have something to say, I went to Honglu Temple to look for Master Du, but I didn't find it, so I went to Zhuangyuan Mansion."

Are you looking for Du Xuan?
Dou Xiuqiao suddenly had some bad feelings in her heart.
