Wenyou followed her gaze, nodded, and followed Baiyunxi forward with the basket in hand.
As for the sneaky man behind her, he had no deterrent effect at all and was not worth her trouble to catch.
It wasn't until the two figures disappeared halfway down the slope that Bai Chao stepped out, squinting in the direction of the two of them, and raised his hand to rub his chin. Was the woman just now the adopted daughter of Bai Yunxi?
It is indeed as my mother said, with a cold and indifferent appearance, she looks pretty good and has a good figure.
Bai Chao was so engrossed in looking at the person that he didn't notice the person who had disappeared halfway down the slope, turned around and looked towards him from behind the bushes.
Looking at the people standing there in a daze, Bai Yunxi frowned,
"He should be my cousin's son Bai Chao."
Although she also had no impression of Bai Chao, it was not difficult to guess the identity of this person after thinking about it.
"What's her plan for following us?"
Didn't Aunt Bai lend money to her mother, and this person jumped over the wall to rob her?
Wen You had a cold face and was not pleasant at first sight. No wonder she didn't have a wife. She didn't look like a good person.
"Her mother came to visit her and couldn't borrow the money, so she felt unhappy. People in the village are like this. Even if they are a little careful, they can't hide it."
The hierarchy is here, there are no profound things, and there are constant petty calculations.
"Having said that, sometimes you can't underestimate them. When some people are evil, they can shatter your outlook on life. Of course, most of them are simple people, and it's only the handful that are difficult to deal with, and they are also the most annoying.
existence."
Listening to Bai Yunxi's reminder, Wenyou glanced at the man again, watching him leave with three steps, and she became silently vigilant in her heart.
Baiyunxi was heartbroken to be followed secretly, so she picked up half a basket of Huihui vegetables and took Wenyou home.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I met Song Wang who was delivering vegetables. "Hey, I went to dig wild vegetables. This is good. You can boil it with hot water and mix it directly. It is very smooth. This is the green vegetable I planted, and it is the first crop I can eat.
Bring it to you."
Looking at the hairy vegetables in her basket, Baiyunxi thanked her and let her into the yard.
"Brother Jie should be back soon, right?"
"I haven't received the letter yet. I estimate it will take ten and a half days."
Jie Geer said when he set out that he would come back after the results came out, it would take a little longer.
Mrs. Song Wang said, clasping her hands together and praying a few words. These days, she burns a stick of incense every day, praying that her son can pass the government examination and become a scholar.
"Don't worry, your brother Jie has the strength."
Bai Yunxi reached out and patted her hand,
"Just wait for the good news."
I failed the exam a few times because I was under too much pressure. In addition, other people in my family kept making noises every day, which really affected my mood.
Now that the family is separated, I have relieved most of the burden from my heart. As long as I perform normally, I am pretty sure to get a middle rank in the exam.
In the memory of the original owner, the old judge still had a good evaluation of Song Jie, and there was no pressure to pass the exam to become a scholar.
Listening to Baiyunxi's comfort, the Song Wang family was still uneasy.
"That's what I said, but if I didn't get the letter, I always felt uneasy."
If the son wins this time, it will not only silence the two families, but also prove with facts that only by leaving them can the son flourish.
Baiyunxi took her to sit on the porch, the breeze blew by, and the yard was filled with the sweet fragrance of wild flowers.
Spring is the season when mountain flowers bloom, and you can smell the sweet fragrance everywhere.
Mrs. Du brought tea to the two of them and went to deal with the wild vegetables.
