Chapter 1078
This news really shocked Bai hecan. Bai Jinghong's father? Is Duan Tiande here?
After all, she was raised in the boudoir since childhood. Except for the female family members in Beijing and the male guests who had a lot of contacts with Bai's family, no one from outside had seen her. Therefore, no one knew her even if she changed her name and went to Lancheng.
But Duan Tiande is different. The Duan family in Dezhen is very famous. Duan Tiande is not a big girl who can't get out of the gate. Even if the magistrate of orchid city is bewitched, there is no one who can understand it. How can Duan Tiande run wild?
She thought that she might have a wrong way of thinking, so she asked the people around her: "does the new lady's father live in the house? How come I've never seen it before? "
The servant girl who was asked by her chuckled, "you've only been here for a few days. Of course you haven't seen her. Besides, the father of the new lady doesn't live in our house. The master has left his husband to be his assistant, so he is usually in the yamen, and he has his own house. But every few days, he will go to the government to visit his new wife. "
"Well, no wonder I haven't seen it." Bai hecan nods. It seems that he is still smart. Otherwise, how can he be an assistant? As expected, Bai Jinghong brought a helper, but he didn't know what his real identity was.
The meal was finished soon. Even if people wanted to gossip for a while, they still knew their identity, so they didn't dare to delay. After eating, they hurried back to each hospital to do their own business. White crane dye followed the people in the same courtyard back, and asked more questions as she walked: "the new lady must have a good relationship with her father and daughter, right? The new lady is so good-looking that she needs to be loved by the master. Her father must be very happy. After all, it's the daughter's pride that makes her father and mother proud. "
The servant who was walking with him nodded, "it's really good. Every time my husband comes to visit my new wife, my father and daughter will close the door and say something intimate for an hour or two. It's said that the new lady lost her mother when she was young. Her father brought her up. Naturally, her feelings are excellent. "
White crane dye nodded, did not ask anything, just how to ponder this words, how to feel not right.
If the so-called father is Duan Tiande, that's all. But if not, the two of them will have a chat behind closed doors for an hour or two, which is not normal. It's about how to communicate with each other, how to make money in Lancheng? Or something else?
When Yugu's courtyard arrived, compared with the high-ranking families in the capital, the people in LAN city were relatively casual, and the residences and courtyards were not so particular. They didn't even name every courtyard. At least she didn't see a yard with a separate name in Weifu. People distinguish which yard is the yard of the old lady, the yard of the old master, or the yard of the new lady. Unlike in Jingli, every courtyard has its own name, just because it sounds good.
Bai Jinghong has come out of the room now, and Wei Jingtong is following her, supporting her carefully. Bai Jinghong is looking for someone. He is asking the tall girl of the guard, "where's the new little chrysanthemum?"
White crane dye quickly walked two steps to her, curtsey salute: "madam, maidservant to dinner."
Seeing her coming back, Bai Jinghong was obviously relieved, "it turns out that I'm going to have dinner. Just have dinner. Just have dinner."
Bai Helian pretends not to understand, "where does the lady think the maidservant has gone?"
"I thought you were just... No matter where you go, just come back. In the future, just follow me. I'll ask people to serve more. You can have dinner with me! If you catch up with the master, you can take the food to your own room... Hey, you don't have a room, do you? It's better to live in a wing room. It's convenient for me to call you. " Bai Jinghong pointed to the wing room, which was the east wing of her main room. It was the best room in the courtyard besides the main room.
Bai henran was flattered. "I dare not have such a good house. I just want to live in the backyard with my sisters. That's where people live! If the lady needs to watch the night, the maid will wrap a quilt beside the lady's couch. "
Bai Jinghong laughed. "I don't need to stay in front of my bed to watch the night. The master is there every night. I don't need to watch the night. If I let you live in the east wing, you can live in peace of mind. I don't mean to let you live well, but it will be more convenient when I call you. "
Wei Jingtong lowered his face and said, "you can live where you want to live. Servants just want to be obedient. Do you understand?"
White crane dye immediately nodded, "slave understand, slave must obey."
In this way, she lived in the courtyard. A servant girl took the initiative to prepare the bedding for her. Even in order to please her, the servant girl brought snacks and fruits into the room, and quietly told her that they were deducted from the old lady and the first lady.
White crane dye know old lady now situation is not good, but also did not expect to be poor to be slaves to eat. There is also the young lady, who is said to be the first daughter left by his wife. After her death, the young lady lived a miserable life and was not in a good mental state. She has never met the young lady, but it is said that her mother's death has greatly stimulated her. Now the whole person's mind is not very clear. Every day, she either cries or laughs. Wei Jing doesn't care. It's very sad.Wei Jingtong sat in the yard with Bai Jinghong for a while, and soon went back to the house. After Bai hecan settled in his room, they had been in the house for a long time. The servant in the yard said with admiration: "the master is very kind to the new lady. He doesn't want to leave for a moment. If he doesn't have official business, he will be with the new lady twelve hours a day."
On the side, someone immediately said: "isn't it? Otherwise, people still have to be good-looking, good-looking to have a good life, good-looking to let a man's heart has been tied to himself."
Someone also sighed in a low voice, "the old lady was beautiful, but later she got old... But who can not get old? People want to be old! "
The people in the yard are silent. They are all women. Facing the topic that one day they will grow old, everyone is sad.
Bai Helian doesn't have the heart to feel that she is old. She stands back at the door of Bai Jinghong's room and thinks silently that no matter whether Wei Jingtong is staying or not tonight, she must find a way to get into the room and see who the people in the dark room are.
On this day, they were all in Bai Jinghong's yard, but in fact, there were a lot of things in the mansion. Because they were busy with banquets, almost half of the servants in the mansion were busy with banquets. Although the government has already had experience in holding banquets, there are still some things that need to be prepared now, such as dishes, snacks and so on.
So people are busy, and so are the servants in the small yard.
White crane dye is the most leisurely one, just to the door a station, nothing.
The secret sentries hidden around the courtyard are also very quiet. In broad daylight, the people they want to guard against can't rush into the house in broad daylight. Besides, even if they do, you can see anything unusual in such a bright day.
Therefore, the vigilance of the secret sentries in the daytime is not very high. Even if the ninth Prince is hidden in the dark room, this is Bai Jinghong's house. Bai Jinghong is a member of the gobu monarch, so the guard is not strict.
In this way, until dark, someone came to change white crane dye, let her go to bed, they turn to watch the night.
But white crane dye shakes his head, did not agree, the reason is that the new lady did not speak, she did not dare to change place.
Other people have no choice but to let her stand here. However, she was also reminded: "if you listen later, there will be no movement in the room, that is, your wife and master are asleep, then you can't just stand here and have to watch the night in the room. There is a quilt in the small lattice outside. You can sit outside the screen of the inner room with a bed. You can squint for a while, but you can't sleep too hard, so that you won't hear what the master and his wife need. "
White crane dye nodded, "I understand, this is called vigil."
Seeing that she understood the rules, the servant girl didn't say any more and went to do her own business.
White crane dye this head waited for more than an hour, finally at about the end of the year, the movement inside gradually disappeared.
She thought it was sleeping, so she pushed the door gently and went into the room. As soon as he entered the room, he heard Wei Jingtong's purr, and Bai Jinghong asked, "who is it?"
She quickly said: "maidservant Xiaoju, come in to watch the night for his wife and master."
"It's Daisy! You can just rest outside. If you can sleep for a while, there's nothing to wait on inside
"Would you like a bath, madam?" White crane dye asked in a low voice.
Bai Jinghong sighed, "no, if I bathe, he must wake up. When he wakes up, he has to toss. I feel sick."
She did not ask any more questions. She went back to the outside room to sit down. But in the middle of the retreat, she accidentally knocked down a chair.
The clang sound of the silent night not only awakened Wei Jingtong, who was already asleep, but also alerted the secret whistles around him. Two of them even approached the room.
Wei Jingtong just woke up and blurted out: "what's the noise? Who is it? " At the same time, he stretched out his hand and took the concubine to his arms.
With a plop, Bai hecan knelt down, trembling all over. His voice was trembling. He kowtowed and cried: "Sir, please forgive me, sir! I didn't mean to. I was not familiar with the room. I didn't know there was a chair here, so I tripped. I didn't mean to. Please forgive me this time! Wu... "She really cried.
This cry is for the outside secret sentry to see, she must let the outside people know, just a small servant girl accidentally knocked over the chair, not really what happened in the room.
Sure enough, after hearing her voice, Bai Jinghong scolded Wei Jingtong for not making a fuss. The secret sentry outside quickly retreated back. But when Wei Jingtong wakes up, he refuses to let Bai Jinghong go so easily. As soon as he grabs her arm, he presses her onto the couch
