Bai Yingxue, who was taking a bath, quickly put on her clothes and left the room.
The eldest sister is not in the room, and she is not with the mother, so there is only one possibility: the eldest sister is still in that room!
When she thought of this, Bai Yingxue felt extremely anxious.
"Miss!"
"Miss!!"
Passing by the courtyard and corridor, when one of the servants saw Bai Yingxue, they all looked puzzled. They watched Bai Yingxue hurried past, and their anxious look puzzled them.
What's the emergency, madam?
Guest room.
Shui Yan was writing bamboo slips when he suddenly heard what seemed to be hurried footsteps outside. Before he could raise his head, he saw the door being pushed open in an instant.
And the person who pushed the door open was actually Bai Yingxue, who had just challenged him to a competition.
"You~, come out with me~ for a moment."
Bai Yingxue panted and looked at the young man writing bamboo slips at the table in the room. While feeling anxious, she glanced around the room with her peripheral vision.
At this moment, there was only one thought in her mind.
The eldest sister is not really still in this room!
But apart from the room in front of her, Bai Yingxue really couldn't think of where else the eldest sister would be.
Shui Yan looked at Bai Yingxue. Because everyone in the village used to laugh at him behind his back, he had always been very sensitive to people's eyes.
Although Bai Yingxue hid it well, she couldn't hide it from him.
Shui Yan was already sure when he saw Bai Yingxue's anxious look as she casually glanced around the room.
Except for him in this room.
There are people!
Thinking of this, Shui Yan looked at Bai Yingxue, hesitating a little whether to arrest that person directly here.
In a quiet room.
Along with the young man's silence, Bai Yingxue breathed rapidly. Seeing the young man looking at her without saying a word, Bai Yingxue couldn't help but feel guilty.
And on the other side.
Hiding behind the curtain, Bai Junzhu was so nervous that he held his breath.
"good!"
As the boy's voice sounded in the room, Bai Junzhu's anxious heart finally relaxed.
Listening to the boy's footsteps leaving.
Just when Bai Jun was relieved, a word suddenly came from him again.
"Take your people and leave. Yan, treat it as if you don't know what happened today!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Junzhu's pupils shrank and his mind went blank.
Because this sentence means that the young man already knows that there is someone in the house!
At the door.
Bai Yingxue also raised her head in shock, looking at the young man's beautiful eyes full of uneasiness.
"what are you saying?"
Bai Yingxue wanted to calm down, but her eyes were full of panic, and her evasive beautiful eyes did not dare to look directly at the young man.
Bai Yingxue was really panicking at this moment. She couldn't imagine that if the eldest sister was really in the room, and if the boy really went to catch her, then the eldest sister's reputation would be destroyed.
Fortunately, Shui Yan looked at Bai Yingxue, said nothing, walked past Bai Yingxue, and walked out of the guest room alone.
Although he didn't want to cause any more trouble, Shui Yan also wanted to remind Bai Yingxue. This time he pretended not to know, so as not to let it happen again.
Eyes cannot deceive people. When Shui Yan knew there was someone there at first, he was a little confused. He had been taken out by Bai Yingxue for a long time, and the person hiding in the room had enough time to leave. Why was that person still there when he came back?
inside the room.
Soon Shui Yan then thought of those bamboo slips that had been touched.
Shui Yan guessed that the person hiding in the room could probably understand the Qi language!
Since he only came to Bai Mansion for one day, Shui Yan didn't know much about the Bai family's mansion and how many people could understand Qi's characters.
But no matter who it was, Shui Yan didn't want to pursue it.
Anyway, the bamboo slips are all filled with stories written by him for the little Lolita. Even if he can understand them, it won't do him any harm.
On the contrary, if he really catches that person now, regardless of whether he catches the person, it seems reasonable.
This is in the Bai family's mansion!!
Once the trouble really breaks out, Mr. Bai is worried about his reputation and will definitely ask him to settle the matter and pretend it didn't happen. If he doesn't agree, he will probably be bitten again, and he will probably be labeled as a "false accusation".
.
My mentor Jin Gong once told an allusion about a famous scholar who was falsely accused of stealing jade.
A famous person never stole jade and was falsely accused. When the family owner found the beautiful jade, the person who stole the jade was still a famous person.
Why?
At that time, Duke Jin had told him that when it comes to the reputation and reputation of the gentry, justice is like a joke, not worth mentioning at all!
This is why even though he knew there was someone in the room, Shui Yan still saved face for Bai and did not arrest the person in person, but asked Bai Yingxue to take the person away.
While in the pavilion.
Shui Yan had already seen that although Bai Yan was unwilling to betroth his daughter to him, he had no ill intentions towards him. He was even willing to tell him some inside stories about the noble family that were unknown and could not be spread out.
So after knowing that Bai Yan really wanted to save his life, Shui Yan was not worried that Bai Yingxue would do anything detrimental to him.
Now there is only one day before he can leave the Bai family's mansion.
Shui Yan didn't want to have another conflict with Bai Yan because of Bai Yingxue.
At the door.
Bai Yingxue looked at the young man in the distance, with his back to her. At this time, no matter how stupid Bai Yingxue was, she already understood that the young man had discovered that if she was still ignorant, she would be the one who was embarrassed.
It was about the reputation of the eldest sister, so Bai Yingxue certainly didn't dare to be willful anymore.
In the guest room, after hearing the young man leave, Bai Junzhu, who was behind the curtain, dared to come out.
When Bai Yingxue saw that her eldest sister was really in the room, her beautiful eyes were filled with astonishment and panic.
But when she came to Bai Junzhu, Bai Yingxue looked like a child who had made a mistake.
"Sister, why didn't you come out for so long? I thought you had gone back long ago."
Bai Yingxue spoke in a very small voice, and behind her words, she looked aggrieved, as if she was worried about being scolded.
In fact, Bai Yingxue was also puzzled as to why she took Shui Yan away for so long while the eldest sister was still in the guest room.
Hear the words.
Bai Junzhu, who was originally a little warm and angry, suddenly turned slightly red, her cold and beautiful eyes were a little unnatural, and her eyes were a little evasive.
There was no way she could tell her little sister because she went to peek at the bamboo slips later.
When Bai Yingxue saw that the eldest sister didn't speak, she thought that the eldest sister was still angry, so she frowned.
Bai Junzhu just listened to the little sister's voice, which was almost inaudible, so her beautiful eyes were filled with confusion.
"He's outside?"
Bai Junzhu also asked softly.
Bai Yingxue nodded and pointed outside the door.
When Bai Junzhu came to the door, she saw the young man not far away with his back to them.
Bai Yingxue pointed to the distance and motioned for the eldest sister to follow her.
Bai Junzhu nodded, but before leaving, she glanced at the young man's back, and there was already a slight change in her beautiful eyes.
Just now he knew that there was someone in the room, but he didn't make an attack. Instead, he was very generous and didn't embarrass the little girl, so that her face could be saved.
For some reason, Bai Junzhu remembered that his father once said that he was introverted and his mind was far beyond ordinary people.
Shui Yan listened to the slight footsteps behind him. After the sound disappeared for a moment, Shui Yan turned back. Seeing that Bai Yingxue had left, he returned to the guest room again and continued writing bamboo slips.
Shui Yan did not leave the room after that.
evening.
Two servants of the Bai Mansion came to the guest room with two sets of Qin armor, a bamboo slip, and a polished wooden sign.
When Shui Yan saw what was on the table, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Apparently, he underestimated Bai's speed in doing things before. He thought it would be done tomorrow, but he didn't expect that Bai had already given him the things today.
"Tomorrow, you can leave the Bai family."
Looking at the two sets of Qin armor, Shui Yan reached out and picked up his future 'identity' in Qin.
Use your fingers to gently touch the wooden plaque polished by the craftsmen in your hand, and look at the seal of Pingyang City Order stamped on it.
On the wooden sign, next to the carved portrait that doesn't look like him, there are about a dozen Qin characters engraved on it, of which the two big characters are the most eye-catching.
"Bai Yan!"
Shui Yan's eyes were full of complexity, and this would be his name in the future.
He knew that with this little thing, he could stay in a small house in Qin in the future. And no matter where he went, he would also have the identity of a Qin person.
