Under the influence of Bai Song, Sang Sang seemed to have found the joy of doing business. This sour plum soup was originally a recipe Bai Song made in his spare time, but it was used to improve the interest in his life. Now Sang Sang discovered it and found it in her
He has tasted the sweetness of the management, and the enthusiasm shown now also reassures Bai Song.
This ancient woman was probably too idle and tied up with too many things. It was very rare to find something that she was interested in. Bai Song didn't want any interference, but wanted to see how much this girl could sell sour plum soup.
To what extent.
Bai Song is more concerned about Miss Mo who is being detained awaiting trial.
Now that the plaintiff's parents have been bribed, even if there is no plaintiff in the case, the case is no longer tenable. If everything goes well, Miss Mo will be released tomorrow.
But the Grand Duke of the Chen family never plays his cards according to common sense. Who knows what other methods he will come up with against Mo Jiqing?
With some doubts, Bai Song waited until the next day.
Early in the morning, Bai Song took Dongxiang to the Jixian Prison and brought money and food to visit the prison.
Arriving at the gate of the county jail, we were negotiating with the prison boss.
Bai Song was quite polite and stuffed a little bit of silver: "Miss Qing'er... please be accommodating."
The prison boss collected the money with peace of mind, put it in his pocket and said, "You can just wait here. The governor has received the news and released Miss Qing'er without charge. She will be out soon."
"Then give us back the money!" Dongxiang interrupted, immediately making the prison boss unhappy.
Bai Song pulled Dong Xiang and shook his head.
Dongxiang was very angry: "If he hadn't told me earlier, the money would have been given to him for nothing!"
While they were talking, several people walked out of the cell. Among the jailers, Mo Jiqing walked out slowly in a state of embarrassment.
Bai Song waved his hand inside, and Mo Jiqing quickly quickened his pace.
"Mr. Bai."
Bai Song nodded and looked Mo Jiqing up and down for a while.
This one day in jail was a torture to this pampered girl. Her fine clothes were completely dirty, her hair was stained with grain and grass, her face was very poor, and she no longer had the spirit of the past.
Bai Song took out the bamboo hat he had prepared.
Mo Jiqing said softly "Thank you".
"How about you go to my house and change first?"
"Is it so convenient? The young master's wife..."
"It doesn't matter."
Mo Jiqing hesitated for a while, feeling that the dress he was wearing was really inappropriate. No one else would dare to see him in it, but he didn't show any panic in front of Mr. Bai.
Bai Song invited Mo Jiqing home. It turned out that Xiang'er was out today and there was no one at home, which gave Bai Song confidence.
…
There was heat wafting in the room, and Bai Song rarely took a broom to move around in the courtyard. Instead of looking at where the heat was wafting, he thought about this and that.
Suddenly, Dongxiang ran into the yard and said: "No, my wife is back!"
"Ah?!" Bai Song exclaimed, instantly losing his composure.
"Didn't you just leave? Why did you come back so soon?"
Dongxiang looked outside: "I don't even know this... this lady has arrived at the entrance of the alley. What should I do with Miss Qing'er inside?"
Bai Song circled on the spot, lost his broom and subconsciously rushed into the room where Mo Jiqing was taking a bath. He didn't stop until he reached the door.
Mo Jiqing's voice came from inside: "Master Bai? What happened?"
"No...nothing..." Bai Song responded awkwardly.
Dongxiang rolled her eyes and called inside: "Miss Qing'er, I'll give you some water."
After saying that, he turned around to fetch a bucket of water and said to Bai Song: "Master, just say that the slave is in there."
Then he entered the house.
The incident happened suddenly. As soon as Dongxiang entered the house, Xiang'er and Xiaocui came in from the backyard.
"Ms. sir, why are you back?"
"I...I was just about to ask Madam. Didn't you say you were going shopping? Why did you come back just after you left the house?"
"Hey, don't mention it." Xiang'er complained and was about to say something when she suddenly noticed the billowing heat coming out of the room behind Bai Song, "This is..."
"Oh..." Bai Song pretended to be nonchalant, "Dongxiang is taking a bath inside."
Xiang'er nodded, not paying attention, and returned to the previous topic and continued: "Not long after I left home, I found an official posting a notice, saying that a couple died in the city last night, and asked the people to be careful. I just came to Jixian not long ago.
, I’m not familiar with the place, and I haven’t heard of anyone dying in Ji County for a long time. I felt uneasy, so I decided to come back and not go shopping.”
"It's not uncommon for people to die these days, right? Why are there still people posting notices?"
Xiaocui interjected from behind: "I don't know, but the couple was killed by someone. I heard that the murderer had a good background. It's called the Holy Lotus Sect."
"What?"
Xiang'er answered: "The Holy Lotus Sect is said to be a cult organization in the world. The court has been wanted for many years, but to no avail. In the name of robbing the rich and giving to the poor, these members of the Holy Lotus Sect are doing nothing but robberies and dog robberies.
They committed robberies and murders all over the Tang Dynasty, and even countless officials from the imperial court were killed.
Unexpectedly, the Holy Lotus Sect recently appeared in Jixian County. The news just came out, and many people who saw the notice returned home."
"Is this news reliable?" Bai Song felt a little strange and asked casually.
"It must be reliable, right? It is said that the Holy Lotus Sect will leave a lotus mark on the corpse when it kills people. Anyway, I have to be more careful recently. My husband, don't go out at night if you have nothing to do."
Bai Song nodded. He didn't take this matter to heart, but thought about the woman hiding in the room.
For fear of being discovered by Xiang'er, she forced herself to be calm and led Xiang'er to another room.
"Xiang'er, hurry up and get some rest. Look, there's a lot of sweat on your forehead."
Xiang'er was led elsewhere by Bai Song. When Xiang'er and Xiaocui settled down in the house, Bai Song breathed a sigh of relief. He only hoped that Dongxiang would be smarter and find a chance to send Miss Mo away.
I thought everything was calm, but I didn't know what was wrong with Xiao Cui, and suddenly she wanted to take a bath.
Bai Song hurriedly stopped her: "Didn't you hear what I just said? Dongxiang is still washing inside."
Xiao Cui blinked and looked confused: "What are you afraid of? Last night, I took a bath with Sister Dongxiang. Sister Dongxiang said that she likes to take a bath with Xiao Cui."
"No, no, let's wait... wait until Dong Xiang has finished washing."
"Uncle, why are you so nervous?"
Even at this age, Xiaocui suddenly realized that Bai Song's mood was wrong, let alone Xiang'er.
Xiang'er frowned, gently put down the peach in her hand, and asked suspiciously: "Mr. sir, what's wrong with you?"
It's okay when people are not nervous, but once they are nervous, they will become more and more nervous.
Bai Songshan smiled and said, "Oh, it's nothing. You girl have to take a bath, so you're waiting."
Xiao Cui then responded, sat down honestly, and picked a beautiful peach to eat.
Bai Song breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was sitting down, he suddenly heard Miss Mo's voice coming from outside the house: "Mr. Bai."
I wipe it!
"Xiang'er...that..."
"Ms. sir, why don't you tell us about the guests at home? Xiao Cui, go and welcome the guests in."
Xiaocui looked at her uncle, then at her young lady, threw the peach away, ran to the door and opened the door.
I saw Miss Mo, with warm moisture all over her body, wearing a brand new gauze skirt, standing calmly at the door, smiling and saluting Xiang'er: "I've met Sister Xiang'er."
When Bai Song heard this, he gasped and thought to himself: What happened to Miss Mo? Isn't this going to cause trouble for herself?
Sister Xiang'er?
How can my sister scream like this?
Sure enough, when she heard the address, Xiang'er's eyes narrowed slightly, a smell of gunpowder smoke emerged between the women, and the atmosphere instantly became weird.
"Xiang'er, the thing is..."
"Ms. sir, this girl is..."
Mo Jiqing rushed to say: "Sister, please call me sister Qing'er."
"Qing'er...oh, that's Miss Qing'er from Yichun Yuan. I heard that Miss Qing'er is a famous figure in Ji County. A song can be sold for dozens of taels of silver. Some people have spent thousands of dollars and have never seen Qing'er.
On the girl side, why is Miss Qing'er so naked today?"
Xiang'er said, walked to Bai Song, stood slightly in front of Bai Song, blocking Bai Song's sight. Her intention was very simple, and Bai Song did not need to explain it at this moment.
The sudden appearance of this woman did not make Xiang'er overly excited. Her expression was calm and she looked like a good wife and loving mother.
He was a completely different person than he was a month ago when he heard about Shu Wang in Lin Mansion.
But the more Xiang'er acted like this, the more Bai Song felt guilty. He really couldn't figure out why Mo Jiqing made such a fuss?
"Thank you Mr. Bai for saving your life. Now before I leave, I would like to thank you in person."
"Okay, okay, thank you. I have received it. Dongxiang, send Miss Qing'er away quickly." Bai Song seized the opportunity and quickly intervened.
"Mr. Bai, don't you want to send Qing'er off in person?"
"Of course not!" Bai Song really had no choice, "Miss Qing'er, you have misunderstood my wife! Please stop fooling around. I asked you to come to my house to clean it out of kindness. You...how did you...
...Oh, Dongxiang, send the guests away quickly! Xiang'er, I promise, Miss Qing'er and I are just friends and have no personal relationship at all."
Bai Song knew that he could no longer hide and had to express his position. He finally let Xiang'er stay, but he couldn't be angry and went back to Mang County within two days.
Xiang'er felt unhappy, but after hearing this, she felt a little better and looked at Qing'er with a smile, waiting for her reaction.
Bai Song's words stabilized Xiang'er, but made Qing'er's vision blurred.
"Miss Mo, hurry up and leave!" Dongxiang was also annoyed and dragged Miss Mo out.
Mo Jiqing didn't stay any longer. After hearing Bai Song's words, he felt at ease and left with Dongxiang.
Bai Song didn't have the time to think about others and quickly admitted his mistake to Xiang'er: "Xiang'er, the thing is..."
"Ms. Sir, there are rumors in the outside world that this girl Qing'er is involved with the Holy Lotus Sect. It would be better not to get close to her in the future."
Unexpectedly, Xiang'er said such a thing casually, and Bai Song thought he didn't take it to heart.
"Xiang'er, you..."
Xiang'er smiled: "Don't worry, sir, Xiang'er is not angry."
"really?"
"really."
"Why? Before..."
"Because the way my husband looks at me is different from hers, that's enough."
