Glory all the way

Chapter 97 Disappointment
In the early morning of the second day, Bai Yingluo went to Qing'an Hall to accompany her grandparents to have breakfast, when the sound of firecrackers rang out in front of the door.

Su's residence is far away in Suping. Although the journey is far away, Su Mushan and his wife attach great importance to this marriage. You can see a thing or two just by looking at the gifts that came to the door for the invitation period.

The ones in front of them are naturally a pair of live geese, with their fat bodies and roving eyes, which add a bit of playfulness to this festive day.

The servants who wandered in carried a load into the big red box. After a while, Qiu Ranxuan's yard was piled up to the brim.

The middleman invited by the Su Mansion is the former matchmaker, and after several visits, he is already familiar with the road.

The second lady looked at the mahogany boxes in the yard, her eyebrows and mouth were crooked in a smile, and she immediately welcomed the matchmaker into the main room with great enthusiasm.

It was close to noon when the second master came back, the three of them had a discussion in the room, and when they came out to go to Qing'an Hall, they all looked happy and smiling.

"Old man, old lady, the Su family has selected a few days for sister Yun's marriage, and asked parents to decide."

Handing the red booklet in his hand to Qiuwen, the second master said beamingly.

"In a blink of an eye, the children are all grown up. Those who marry wives marry wives, and those who marry marry, we are really old..."

Sighing, the old man Bai took the brochure and held it in front of the old lady Bai, and the two of them read it carefully.

In the end, two days, February 18th and February [-]th, were chosen.

"You are Sister Yun's parents, so it's up to you to make decisions about your daughter's lifelong affairs. This final decision, you can decide, it's all for Sister Yun's good."

Pointing to the two days he had chosen, old master Bai closed the booklet and handed it back to the second master.

"Since that's the case, let's go to February [-]th. Sister Yun's birthday is on the [-]th day of the first lunar month, and when Jiji gets married a month later, she wears a six. It means a smooth life and is also a good sign."

The second master said in agreement.

After sitting and talking for a while, the second master and the second wife sent the matchmaker out. Bai Yingluo came out from the inner room, leaned next to the old lady Bai and said, "Grandmother, you and grandfather will live a long life. Watching Brother Kun's children grow up."

Actually, he was still thinking about the slightly sentimental words that Old Master Bai and Mrs. Bai had just said.

Patting her face dotingly, the old lady Bai said with a smile: "Silly boy, it is the greatest wish of grandparents to see you get married and have children and live a good life. If Brother Kun's child grows up, Haven't we become old monsters?"

When mentioning about her own marriage, Bai Yingluo immediately lowered her head shyly. Seeing this, Old Madam Bai smiled at Old Master Bai, and did not continue talking.

After taking a nap, Bai Yingluo went to Yunshui Pavilion with gifts.

Bai Yingyun lay sleepily on the soft couch, staring at the window lattice with dull eyes, not at all happy after the marriage was settled. Although the maids thought it was a happy thing, seeing her young lady like this, she was afraid of offending her. She was not happy, and for a moment, the entire Yunshui Pavilion was filled with unspeakable awkwardness.

"Congratulations to Fifth Sister..."

Taking the brocade box from Liu Su's hand and handing it to Xi Yan, Bai Yingluo walked to the soft couch and said softly.

On the brocade table in the house, many brocade boxes have been placed layer upon layer. Presumably, they were sent by brothers and sisters, but Bai Yingyun didn't even glance at it, as if the marriage that had been arranged had nothing to do with her at all. like.

"Sister Six is ​​here to see my jokes?"

She cast a sideways glance at Bai Yingluo with an unfriendly expression, and Bai Yingyun sat up.

"If Fifth Sister thinks this way, then Sister has nothing to say, Sister, rest, I'm going back..."

After being separated for more than a month, Bai Yingluo's mood improved because of meeting Bai Xiu and Du Xuan, and all the awkwardness that Bai Yingyun deliberately found unpleasant with her in the past was forgotten.

After all, they are nominally the daughters of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and the two grew up together. If there is any disharmony, it will still lose the face of the Jing'an Hou Mansion if it is spread, and it will damage Bai Yingluo's reputation.

Therefore, for more than a month, Bai Yingluo should have gone out to relax. Before she came back, she was thinking that after all, there was nothing between her and Beining Bo Shizi. It seemed impossible for Bai Yingyun and Beining Bo Shizi.

When I came back, I found out that the Su Mansion and Jing'an Hou Mansion had already discussed the marriage between Su Wenyuan and Bai Yingyun intensively. The small awkwardness between Bai Yingluo and Bai Yingyun before was even less on the table. Happiness is left behind, everyone before and after will be a pair of good sisters with her.

But now that Bai Yingyun spoke like this, Bai Yingluo immediately lost her temper and was too lazy to deal with her.

"Hey, you..."

Seeing that Bai Yingluo was really going to leave, Bai Yingyun pouted and became unhappy, her face was full of remorse that she shouldn't have said those words just now, but she couldn't get rid of her face, Bai Yingyun made a sound, but didn't say any more.

On the side, the magpie walked over with great sensitivity and stopped Bai Yingluo affectionately, "Miss Six, my young lady just woke up and is still a little confused. She is just joking with you, so don't take it to heart."

Looking back at Bai Yingyun, seeing that she turned her head away with some guilt, Bai Yingluo didn't insist anymore, she turned back and sat down at the brocade table, while Bai Yingyun got up and put on her shoes, cleaned her face, and came over Sitting in one place.

On the day she realized that she had confessed to the wrong person, Bai Yingyun's heart was as uncomfortable as ice and fire. But now, the marriage that could have been possible has ended up in the current situation because of her own will. It's irreparable.

After the incident, the second wife severely punished all the maidservants in the Yunshui Pavilion, and completely grounded Bai Yingyun in the Yunshui Pavilion. Since then, the news outside has never been heard by Bai Yingyun, especially about Uncle Zhongshan. The news of the son.

After being bored for more than two months, Bai Yingyun felt that a heart that had sunk to the bottom of the valley was no longer able to rise and fall.

Seeing Bai Yingluo now again, Bai Yingyun felt a little embarrassed, but she was never the kind of person who knew her mistakes and could correct them, and was able to save face and give Bai Yingluo an apology and succumb. Now this is the limit of what she can do.

And since she grew up together, how could Bai Yingluo know Bai Yingyun's personality?

From then on, the two of them probably could only maintain their intimacy in front of others, and in the back, they just walked on each side of the road. After all, the lives of two people will not have any overlap.

Thinking about it this way, everything was fine, the two talked for a while, and Bai Yingluo got up and left the Yunshui Pavilion.

Although there are still two years left before Bai Yingyun and Ji, the marriage has been settled after all. The entire Jing'an Hou Mansion was beaming with joy all day long, and Qiu Ranxuan was even more so. He saw the mahogany boxes full of betrothal gifts. They are all good goods, not bad at all compared to the ones bought in the capital, the second lady is very satisfied, and on the other hand, she sighs more and more that her relatives are safe and reliable.

It's not the first time the second master has married a daughter, what's more, now it's just a dowry gift to set the date of marriage, his joy is only what is shown on his face, but when the second wife drags her into the back room and whispers, the second wife The master suddenly became happy with wide-eyed smiles, and said a few words of praise to his grateful uncle who will be far away in Suping.

If it is as promised by Su Mushan, by the end of the year, his official position will be able to move forward a step or two, right?

After being served by the second lady in a daze, there was a contented smile on the corner of the second master's lips.

The excitement in Jing'an Hou's Mansion lasted for several days, and the capital became lively again. This time, it was good news from Zhongshan Bo's Mansion.

The marriage of the sons and daughters of Zhongshan Bo's Mansion and Jianghuai Governor Song's Mansion has also been finalized, in the golden autumn and August.The negotiation between the two went very smoothly, and they only started to inquire a few years ago, but now, the happy event is approaching.

The Uncle Zhongshan’s Mansion has a title, but the Song Mansion is not bad either. Governor Song is conscientious in his tenure. Emperor Jiayuan has praised him several times in court. Seeing that the future power of the Song Mansion is still limitless, so, such a Yue family , Undoubtedly, it could not be more helpful to Uncle Zhongshan.

When she heard the news, in Yunshui Pavilion, Bai Yingyun took the opportunity to make a fuss again. Although the name that the second lady used to cover up was a thousand miles away, anyone with a discerning eye knew what was going on.

"Sister Yun is used to by the second uncle and the second aunt. Not to mention the Jing'an Hou Mansion, which is the other big families in the capital. Whose young lady dares to make a scene at home because of her own marriage?"

When the noise from the Yunshui Pavilion reached Xu Hexuan, Bai Yingluo was lying on the bedside teasing Brother Kun, and Jia Shi said somewhat contemptuously at the side.

"Where did the eldest sister-in-law hear this? How come I don't know at all?"

After listening to Jia's talk, Bai Yingluo finally cleared up the doubts in her heart. It turned out that Bai Yingyun fell in love with Uncle Zhongshan's son, but by chance, she recognized him as Beining uncle's son, and then she also ridiculed Bai Yingluo several times later.

Jia curled her lips, "In this Marquis Mansion, apart from you, there are probably only a few younger ladies who don't know about it, and who else doesn't know about it? It's just that I didn't expect that Sister Yun would be so unwilling." It’s all about making a fuss out of face, otherwise, not to mention my mother-in-law, even the old lady may not be able to spare the second aunt and sister Yun..."

Bai Shizhong has just claimed the title of Marquis of Jing'an for more than half a year, and now he is a little more cautious than when he was the heir, and he is even more strict with the children and servants in the mansion. At this time, if something happens to Bai Yingyun , it is conceivable how Mrs. Xue, Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Bai will vent their anger on the second room.

Nodding her head in agreement, Bai Yingluo's thoughts were not on Bai Yingyun at all.

In just a few days, Brother Kun has lost the redness and wrinkle of the day when he was just born, and is a little fatter. The little guy's arms are as white and smooth as lotus root segments, making Bai Yingluo want to bite a mouthful.

Touching the little guy's hand in her hand, she couldn't help being held tightly by him, and a corner of Bai Yingluo's heart suddenly collapsed softly.
