Glory all the way

Chapter 5
"Miss, there is blood all over the firewood house, and many timid maids fainted from fright. The Da Furen said that if anyone betrays the master in the future, he will suffer the same fate as Yan Hong."

In the Yunshui Pavilion, Bai Yingyun's maid, Xi Que, whispered back, as if recalling the rod punishment in the afternoon, Magpie's face was a little pale, and his teeth chattered a little when he spoke.

Clenching the handkerchief tightly in her hands calmly, Bai Yingyun turned her head and glared at the magpie, "You can't do such a small thing well, and you still want to work in the Hou's mansion? She deserved to end up like this..."

The words that were about to be pleaded were immediately contained in his mouth, the magpie was stunned for a moment, lowered his head slightly and did not say any more.

But Bai Yingyun who was at the side told her sharply: "From now on, don't run to Yi'an Pavilion if you have nothing to do. That stupid girl will punish herself for a month, and she will implicate us."

"Miss……"

With a face of disapproval, Magpie persuaded softly: "Miss, Yanhong's death with a cane has already shown the old lady's thoughts. Miss Six's actions will only leave a good impression on the old lady, and maybe she will cherish her even more in the future." How much. Even if Miss Six is ​​no longer liked by Miss, it is better not to stay far away from her now."

Rolling her eyes, thinking that what the magpie said made sense, Bai Yingyun nodded, and said with some annoyance: "What a bastard. Don't say anything about the three uncles and three aunts who are dead. For so many years, you have been begging for nothing in my second room. Come on." How many good things should belong to me? Bisheng always pretends to be a coquettish grievance, and I hate her the most. I don't believe it, I can't deal with her..."

Speaking angrily, Bai Yingyun stood up and walked out, "Let's go, go talk to your maiden."

After leaving the courtyard gate, seeing that the gate of the Yi'an Pavilion was closed tightly, and there seemed to be no movement inside, Bai Yingyun's lips revealed a slight smug smile.

But when she entered the main room of Qiu Ranxuan, Bai Yingyun couldn't laugh anymore when she saw her mother's face of livid forbearance and anger.

"An ignorant woman with long hair and short knowledge..."

In the armchair at the top, the second master Bai Shixiao sternly reprimanded the second wife.

After returning from the yamen in the afternoon, I learned what happened in the mansion during the day, and went to the elder brother's study to finish discussing the affairs of the court, and then brought up the matter in the mansion.

Although Bai Shizhong, Marquis of Jing'an, did not blame his second younger brother, in his words, he was a little bit dissatisfied with Bai Yingluo's unfair treatment, and when he looked at Bai Shixiao, he felt a little bit of resentment.

After all, Bai Yingluo has been raised in the second room since she was a child. Her health is not good, and her servants are unruly. The second room has responsibilities that cannot be avoided.

For Bai Yingluo, Bai Shixiao naturally did not have the kindness and love he had for his own daughter, but after all, it was the only flesh and blood of his own brother.

Thinking of his daughter still sneering at Bai Yingluo in front of the old lady and fanning the flames, Bai Shixiao's face became even more pale, and he has been scolding the second lady since he entered the door.

Seeing Bai Yingyun enter the door at this moment, Bai Shixiao's face darkened and he reprimanded: "Nie Zhan, how did you teach you as a father? Brothers, friends, brothers, sisters, sisters, how do you do it? Do you have the appearance of being a big sister?"

Bai Yingyun acted capriciously in front of her mother, but she was always docile in front of her strict father. Now that her father was angry, she didn't dare to disobey and contradict her, so she stood silently in the room and let him teach her a lesson. After leaving Qiu Ranxuan, Bai Yingyun hugged her mother with tears in her eyes.

"You, the older you get, the less clever you were when you were young..."

She raised her hand and gouged out her daughter's finger, and the second lady said angrily, "Young lady, as long as she has what you want, when did you not get what you wished? At that time, she wasn't as thoughtful as she is now, but it's better now." , not only annoyed the old lady, but also made your father angry, what should you do when you look back?"

"mother……"

Calling softly, Bai Yingyun said with some annoyance: "It's not all my daughter's fault. The purple pattern pendant is indeed missing. My mother said that it is an extremely important thing. Besides, that damn girl, don't you?" It’s just a good appearance. Think about it, Mrs. Bei Ning was staring at her all the time, and praised her like a flower, as if we were all dogtail grass in the corner. If it weren’t for the third uncle The third aunt has gone, her fate is unlucky, maybe the purple patterned pendant was given to her..."

Thinking of that day when Mrs. Bei Ningbo let go of Bai Yingluo's hand with joy but regret, Bai Yingyun felt that her heart was full of anger and injustice, which made her unable to calm down.

"You, you just can't bear your temper. You should really let the nanny control you."

Complaining affectionately, the second lady held her daughter in her arms, and said softly: "Since you also know that she has no father and no mother, Mrs. Beining wouldn't choose her, why are you targeting her like this? Silly girl, talk to you more." Big sister learns to learn and has a good relationship with the sisters, which is naturally beneficial, you know?"

That being said, when thinking of Bai Yingluo's ever-larger and brighter face, the second lady feels a little uncomfortable, but when she thinks about her being an orphan, even if she is the daughter of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, she will not Bai Yingyun's marriage is definitely not overwhelming, so the second wife felt relieved.

Sighing lightly, the second wife turned to Bai Yingyun and said, "It doesn't matter whether she is good-looking or submissive, in the end, her marriage cannot overwhelm you, so don't worry about her anymore, just follow your wife well." Learn poetry and etiquette, learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, don't compare with her, just be yourself, understand?"

Pouring her lips, Bai Yingyun's face was full of dissatisfaction, and there was a bit of resentment in her words, "Am I willing to compare with her? But everyone compares us, what can I do? In boudoir school, the master always Said, "Miss Wu, if you can't remember clearly or don't practice well, go ask Miss Six. If you practice hard, you will be like her." Even the servants in the mansion said that Miss Fifth is not as temperamental as Miss Six. Okay. Mother, do you think I am willing to compare with her?"

As she spoke, Bai Yingyun's eyes turned red.

For the first time, the second wife felt annoyed that she took over the task of raising Bai Yingluo.

I thought that the third master and the third wife had gone, and Bai Yingluo would be kept in the second bedroom. From now on, it would be more beneficial, and it would also make the old master and old lady Bai, who were always paying attention to Bai Yingluo, think about the second bedroom.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, the benefits have not been much, because Bai Yingluo has caused a lot of trouble.

But now, although Bai Yingluo is becoming more and more sensible, she never causes troubles, but because of her restrained and docile temperament, she pales in comparison, and has brought so many troubles to her daughter, resulting in the current situation.

"Hey……"

Helplessly sighed, the second lady's face was a little depressed.

For several days in a row, Yi'an Pavilion and Yunshui Pavilion were quiet, and in Qing'an Hall, the old lady Bai also looked normal, as if what happened a few days ago was a trivial matter like eating and drinking tea.

The servants became more cautious because of Yan Hong's death, but when they looked at Bai Yingyun and Bai Yingluo, they became more searching and suddenly enlightened.

On the other hand, Bai Yingyun's deliberately well-behaved in front of the old lady Bai, Bai Yingluo's situation seems extremely comfortable.

In the Yi'an Pavilion, Bai Yingluo was still writing "Women's Rules" with a serious face. Hearing the familiar footsteps, Bai Yingluo asked without raising her head: "Have you found out?"

"Miss, Miss Fifth's purple pattern pendant, Da Furen is arranging people to search everywhere in the mansion, and there is no news yet, but I think it will not fly out. However, Miss will have to be more careful in the future, Fifth The young lady's mind is worse now than when she was a child, and she always knows that she is calculating the young lady."

Liu Ying muttered in a low voice.

"Being more courageous, dare to arrange the master?"

Tassel, who was helping Bai Yingluo grind the ink, raised her hand and poked Liuying's finger, "No matter how bad Miss Fifth is, she is still the master. If someone hears your words, it's not too much to pull them out and sell them. What are you doing?" Is the lady causing trouble?"

Sticking out her tongue playfully, Liu Ying looked at Bai Yingluo with a blushing face, and continued: "Miss, when the servant came in, she saw Chen Xiang going backwards, so she reckoned that she was going to Qing'an Hall."

Nodding her head to show that she understood, Bai Yingluo put down the writing brush in her hand, took the handkerchief from Liusu and wiped her hands: "I won't go to pay my grandmother's greetings for a month, and of course there must be someone to report the matter of Yi'an Pavilion. Grandmother, it's perfect for Chen Xiang to go. Besides, she helped me with what happened that day."

Bai Yingluo knew in her heart that what Yan Hong said at such a moment would naturally not be framing her for nothing, so the statement of "Xuan Lang" was true, and Chen Xiang's explanation was a bit far-fetched, but Bai Yingluo It is also true to teach children a thousand-character prose.

From now on, it will be a dream, and I am afraid that I will have to be alert for a while.

Thinking of this, Bai Yingluo turned back and sat on the side of the soft couch, looked at the two of them solemnly and said: "You grew up with me, and the relationship between you and me is uncommonly comparable between master and servant. Now, what is in Yi'an Pavilion?" You are all aware of the situation, and from now on, you should pay more attention to everything, understand? We have to plan step by step to..."

Seeing her own lady deliberately avoiding Chen Xiang and saying such personal words, Liusu hesitated and said: "Miss, I always feel that elder sister Chen Xiang is calm, if she can stand beside Miss, she will be a great help to Miss in the future, Miss Have you ever thought about winning her over?"

"It's not that easy. She was trained by the old lady. How can she be won over so easily?"

Liu Ying said in disapproval.

With a face of contemplation, Bai Yingluo smiled and said, "As I said, plan step by step. This, take your time. It takes a long time to see people's hearts. Now, I finally have a good start."

Seeing the two maids nodding their heads in unison, Bai Yingluo sighed, her face suddenly fell down, "That jade pendant, can you put it away?"

The jade pendant Bai Yingluo was talking about was the purple pattern pendant that Bai Yingyun framed as a gift from Madam Beining that day, but the one in Bai Yingluo's hand belonged to her father Bai Shiming.

That piece of jade was originally a high-quality piece of purple-patterned jade. If it was placed in normal times, there would be nothing special about it, but because of Bai Shiming's early death, it became extraordinary. The reason for the gaffe.
