Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it’s the annual Mid-Autumn Festival.
Early that morning, the entire White House was busy! Now, Bai Yanqing is in charge of the internal affairs of the White House, so she works harder than usual! On the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is even harder than usual.
Get up early to deal with things in the house!
"Miss, someone came to the door and said they were sending crabs from Huzhou!"
Cai Xing's busy footsteps touched the ground, and he was sweating profusely while running.
"Crab?"
Bai Yanqing was stunned for a moment and then remembered that Li Qinru had said before that people would send more crabs from Huzhou to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival!
So, Bai Yanqing hurriedly took Cai Xing and ran to Bai Shiheng's courtyard to find Li Qinru.
"Little aunt, someone is coming from Huzhou. Come with me and have a look to see if they are the people you sent."
After Bai Yanqing found Li Qinru, he pulled her and ran to the door of the mansion. After the two of them saw the person delivering crabs at the door of the mansion, they confirmed that Li Qinru recognized him, and then unloaded a carriage full of crabs.
!
"Little aunt...can I ask you for a reward? Can you give me a box of crabs? I want to give it to someone..."
Bai Yanqing took Li Qinru's arm and said coquettishly.
"You girl! There are so many crabs, and there are so many people in the White House, how can we finish them all? If you want, take a few more boxes! Leave a few boxes, and I will make crab roe cakes for you!"
Li Qinru smiled and tapped Bai Yanqing's forehead, but she was no longer as lively as before. Now, her relationship with Bai Yanqing is quite harmonious.
Li Qinru only has one son and no daughter, Bai Junzhi, but now she really treats Bai Yanqing as her own daughter! Not to mention a few boxes of crabs, what kind of delicious, fun, and good things does she have on weekdays?
No matter what, he always sticks to Bai Yanqing first! Sometimes even Bai Junzhi would joke, saying that now his mother only loves her cousin!
Bai Yanqing was overjoyed to receive Li Qinru's approval! She hurriedly asked Cai Xing to fill a large food box full of crabs and take them back to her courtyard!
"Why do you want so many crabs, Miss? We can't finish them all!"
Cai Xing was carrying the heavy food box and felt very puzzled. Her young lady had a weak spleen and stomach, so naturally she couldn't eat so many crabs. There were only four people left in the courtyard: herself, Aunt An, Aunt Li and Aunt Zhao.
, where can I eat so many crabs?
"Who said we were left to eat by ourselves?"
Bai Yanqing rolled her eyes at Cai Xing, "This girl knows how to eat, eat, eat!"
The two of them ran back to Nianchu Xiaozhu quickly, and then Bai Yanqing called Aunt An over!
"Aunt An, please send this box of crabs to Ji's house immediately!"
Bai Yanqing pulled Aunt An and whispered to her.
Aunt An was stunned: Send it to the Ji family?
"The crabs from Huzhou are a rare thing! We rarely see them in the capital. Today there are many from Huzhou. I picked the biggest box and the most abundant ones. You can send them to the General's Mansion for me! You are new here
From the Bai Mansion, others may look at you as unfamiliar and not eye-catching, so you can send me there when you leave the house, so you won’t attract anyone’s attention!”
Bai Yanqing took the food box from Cai Xing and hurriedly stuffed it into Aunt An's hand!
The crabs that Li Qinru brought over before were not in large quantities, and Bai Yanqing was too shy to ask for them out of shame. Now, dozens of boxes of crabs have arrived from Huzhou, and Bai Yanqing has to give some to her grandfather and family no matter what.
Uncle, try something new!
In these years, thanks to the help of the Ji family, Bai Yanqing was able to grow up safely and smoothly. Bai Yanqing will always remember this kindness in her heart.
Previously, Ji Nanjing teased Bai Yanqing that she would not think about her grandfather's family after returning to the Bai Mansion. In fact, this was not the case. Bai Yanqing never forgot her grandfather and uncle's family! However, the Bai family and the Ji family
The relationship was so sensitive that she couldn't mention it in front of others, so she could only whisper to Cai Xing secretly in private!
Not to mention that the Bai family is a noble family, and Bai Yanqing doesn't have anything rare to give to the Ji family. Let's talk about Ji Jinxiu, who has been in business for many years and has a strong family background. What kind of treasure has he not seen? Where can I find something that can make him
Did you see it in your heart?
But this crab is different. Although it is not a rare treasure, it is Bai Yanqing’s true heart! This thing is not common in the capital, and it coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival. Who doesn’t want to take a bite of this tender and meaty autumn food?
Delicious crabs?
Bai Yanqing is not a greedy person. Even she thinks that the one who is full of praise must be the best! She can give this best to her most respected grandfather and uncle, as well as her favorite watch.
Brother, that is what makes her happiest!
Aunt An took the food box from Bai Yanqing's hand, opened it and took a look. The food box was full of crabs, tightly stuffed! After counting, there were more than dozens of them! Then she sighed in her heart, where is this little girl?
Did she ask her aunt for a box of crabs? She... maybe she put several boxes of crabs into one box, right?
"Miss! You... why did you carry so much weight just now? How can this be a box of crabs? How many crabs did you take from the third lady?"
Cai Xing was also stunned by the food box full of crabs in front of her! When she was carrying it, she felt something was wrong. Why was the food box she was carrying seemed so heavy?
Cai Xing carefully recalled what happened to Bai Yanqing next to the carriage just now! At that time, Li Qinru was talking to the man who delivered crabs, and Bai Yanqing was alone, leaving Cai Xing, and went to pick crabs! Cai Xing left
Not too close, I saw Bai Yanqing bending over there, picking and choosing.
For a long time, she just thought that her lady was picking out a box of the best ones, but she never expected that her lady would actually pick up several boxes of crabs into one food box! They were piled up thickly.
Several layers! I really don’t know what the third lady will think when she checks the food box!
Bai Yanqing pursed her lips and rolled her eyes at Cai Xing: This is just one box! Where is the second food box? I say just take one box, and never take the second box!
"Aunt An, send it over quickly! The crabs are still alive at this moment! If it's too late, be careful they will all die! Then the taste will be affected!"
Bai Yanqing didn't care about it anymore, urging Aunt An and pushing her out. Aunt An had no choice but to pick up the food box and speed up her pace!
Aunt An hurried slowly and hurriedly, but she finally fulfilled her mission and delivered the crabs to Ji's house before the crabs had a chance to catch their breath.
"Thankfully, sister Yan Qing can still think of me as my cousin! It really touches me!"
Ji Nanjing took the food box from Aunt An's hand and was so excited that tears filled her eyes.
"You are overthinking it. Yan Qing said that these were specially left for my grandfather and uncle!"
Aunt An handed over the food box and couldn't help but add this sentence. This sentence was originally what Bai Yanqing asked her to bring to the Ji family! Most likely, she still remembered Ji Nanjing's previous hatred of avoiding him.
"This girl really holds a grudge!"
Of course Ji Nanjing knew what Aunt An meant by these words. It was probably the little girl who specifically told her. With her vengeful temperament, how could Ji Nanjing not know her? However, Ji Nanjing
But I don't bother to argue with her. Who makes her the apple of the eyes of the two old men in the family?
"She also said that if you were injured a while ago, you shouldn't touch these cold things. In the future, when your body recovers and you want to eat, she will ask someone to bring it to you!"
Seeing Ji Nanjing's face full of anger, Aunt An covered her mouth and smiled softly, and then said the second half of the sentence.
"Can you please stop gasping when you speak? I know that our Yan Qing is not the heartless one. She still feels sorry for my brother!"
Hearing this, Ji Nanjing's handsome face finally showed a smug expression!
Then, Aunt An handed Ji Nanjing a small porcelain bottle, saying that Bai Yanqing asked it to be handed over to him. Ji Nanjing took the small porcelain bottle, uncorked it, and smelled it. It was the familiar smell of medicinal materials, the same as before.
The bottle of medicine Bai Yanqing gave him
, are the same! It can be seen that Bai Yanqing still feels sorry for Ji Nanjing. She knew that he was injured and was afraid that he would be greedy and eat too much, so Aunt An gave him words and medicine to keep him safe and sound.
Don't let anything happen again!
After accepting the things Bai Yanqing sent, Ji Nanjing ordered someone to secretly escort Aunt An back to the Bai family!
…
"Master, do you want to find out the background of Aunt An?"
There were two figures hiding in the darkness at the corner of the street. One of them said to the other, taller person.
"No need, she is not a threat to the Bai family and the Ji family. Besides, Bai Jingxuan is already checking her out, so we don't have to work hard! Just sit back and enjoy the results!"
Another one, the old god, responded on the ground. He was not uncurious about Aunt An's identity, but since someone was already checking, why did he need to do more? It was just a waste of manpower!
…
As for the Ji family, when General Ji and Ji Jinxiu learned that Bai Yanqing personally sent so many crabs to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, they were so excited that they burst into tears. Their words and deeds were no more exaggerated than Ji Nanjing's.
Damn! I wish I could hold Bai Yanqing around three times in my arms!
Ji Nanjing really didn't have the eyes to look at them. Together, the two old men were almost a hundred years old. As for how excited they were over a few crabs? Ji Nanjing carefully protected the small porcelain vase in his hand.
At the same time, he ordered his servants to steam the crabs quickly, lest his father and grandfather, who would not let go of the food box, would stink up the delicious fresh crabs!
"Young Master, do you want to put this medicine bottle back into the medicine box?"
The little maid on the side ran over and saw that Ji Nanjing was holding on to a small medicine bottle like a treasure and refused to let go, so she kindly reminded her.
"No! If the medicine box is damaged, can you afford to pay for it? My sister gave it to me!"
Ji Nanjing didn't want to let go for a moment, and held the small medicine bottle tightly to his chest, as if he was afraid that the maid would snatch the medicine bottle away from him.
If you don't put the medicine bottle in the medicine box, but put it in your arms and hold it in your arms, you can avoid squeezing it? The maid had no choice but to turn around and leave. She really couldn't see, her master, young master, and young master were all crazy.
?One is holding the medicine bottle without blocking his hand, and the other two are holding the crab box and fighting for it without letting go. Are these all crazy?
"Master, would you like to bring some steamed crabs to your house?"
Ji Nanjing's entourage asked casually.
"No! My sister said that I shouldn't eat cold things now! When I get better in the future, she will give it to me again!"
Ji Nanjing patted his chest, looking extremely proud!
Sister? Who doesn’t have a sister?
The entourage lowered his head and rolled his eyes silently. Although he had long been accustomed to the three generations of the Ji family doting on the eldest daughter of the Bai family, but... the eldest daughter of the Bai family just gave them some ordinary things. How could they be so happy?
?
If they really want to eat these crabs, they can just go to Huzhou to buy some and bring them back. It’s not a lot of effort! Besides, this medicine bottle is just some medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and it’s not a very rare medicinal material.
, the dignified General's Mansion still needs these ordinary medicines? He really can't understand where the excitement of his masters comes from!
But how would outsiders know the blood and affection the Ji family has for Bai Yanqing! The Ji family is a family of military commanders and has always had a lot of boys. When the old lady gave birth to Ji Jinchu in the past, the whole Ji family was as excited as it is now! Ji Jinxiu's love for Bai Yanqing
My own sister was in pain to the core! General Ji wished he could pluck all the moons out of the sky and give them to his precious daughter to play with!
Later, Ji Jinchu passed away, and the Ji family was in a state of despair. Mrs. Ji became ill because of longing for her daughter, and finally died in depression. This incident was also a scar that no one in the Ji family dared to expose!
