The sound of cicadas gradually brought the day to a close.
The sky gradually darkened, and little Mingzhu was so sleepy that she could hardly open her eyes.
Mrs. Bai felt helpless seeing her like this.
She couldn't help but pat Xiao Mingzhu on the back and hummed a little tune, trying to coax Xiao Mingzhu to sleep.
[Mom, please stop singing. It sounds nice, but I'm so sleepy! I don't want to sleep yet. I have to wait until Daddy comes back.]
Mrs. Bai knew that Bai Tingzhi usually had to deal with things at night and worked until very late. At this time, Bai Tingzhi would definitely not come back.
But looking at her daughter who was so persistent, Mrs. Bai could only speak to the servants beside her.
"Go call the general over and tell him I have something to talk to him about. Go quickly."
Mrs. Bai looked at the little Mingzhu in her arms tenderly, reached out and touched the little Mingzhu's fluffy little head, and said with a smile.
"My dear, I don't know where your father has gone. It's so late, and he hasn't come back to sleep yet. Go to sleep quickly and don't be like your father.
When you wake up, I'll take you out for a walk tomorrow. You're one month old now, so you can go out and play."
When Xiao Mingzhu heard Mrs. Bai's words, her eyes lit up instantly.
Her eyes were full of disbelief, and she didn't know what was happening outside.
[Wow, Mom, is this true? Can my dear really go out and play?]
Xiao Mingzhu has been waiting for a long time to be able to go out and play, and she has been looking forward to it.
"Tomorrow there will be a lively food festival outside. It is prepared by the emperor to select the imperial chef. As long as you win, you can take the first place. The prince will also come because he is the host this time.
I heard that the Queen was in a bad mood recently and couldn't eat, so the Crown Prince was filial and went out of his way to find a chef among the people to help the Queen have a good appetite."
When she heard there was a food festival, the little pearl, which was already shining, became even brighter.
[Mother, mother, you are really my good mother. Guaiguai loves you the most.]
At this moment, the wooden door outside creaked open, and Bai Tingzhi walked to Mrs. Bai's side and looked down at the little person in her arms.
[Daddy is back, go to bed quickly. It's so late. If you don't sleep now, you won't be able to get up tomorrow.]
When Bai Tingzhi heard Xiao Mingzhu's voice, he couldn't help but smile and touched her little head.
"Madam, it's so late, let's go to bed!"
When saying this, Bai Tingzhi winked at Mrs. Bai.
Mrs. Bai understood immediately and nodded, then slowly placed the little pearl in her arms on the bed.
"Good boy, go to sleep! Go to sleep!"
Mrs. Bai's voice was very gentle. After listening for a while, little Mingzhu fell asleep.
After watching Xiao Mingzhu fall asleep, Bai Tingzhi made a gesture to the people during the day.
The two of them walked cautiously into the adjacent room.
People outside can't hear what they are saying inside, and they are also afraid that if Xiao Mingzhu wakes up in the middle of the conversation, they will be the first to know.
"Husband, why did you call me over here? Did something happen today? You don't look very well."
Bai Tingzhi immediately told Mrs. Bai what he heard Xiao Mingzhu say today.
She also knew Zhang Jingren. After all, he was a good friend of her husband. He would often come to the general's mansion to discuss some official matters with Bai Tingzhi.
Mrs. Bai didn't expect that his end would be like this. After hearing it, she found it hard to accept.
"Husband, what are you going to do now?"
Bai Tingzhi shook his head. He really didn't know what to do for the moment.
But what is certain is that he will definitely find a way to help Zhang Jingren. He is his only good friend and he cannot let him die with a cuckold like this.
Mrs. Bai was also a little distressed. The place where Zhang Jingren usually spent most of his time was the training ground.
How can we call him back home from the training ground? This is also a problem.
"Husband, why don't you pretend to have something to look for him? But don't you usually go to the training ground to look for him? This time, go to his house to look for him.
But you have to be more careful and don't let his wife know that you went to her house, otherwise it will definitely alert the enemy."
Bai Tingzhi thought about it and felt that this was the only way now, and other methods would not work at all.
"Okay, then let's do as Madam said. I'll find a time to investigate the specific situation there, and then see when is the best time to implement it."
Bai Tingzhi couldn't help but hug Bai Tianren from behind, his tone extremely gentle.
"Ma'am, thank goodness you're here, otherwise, as a rough guy like me, I would have just gone over and told him.
If I were to tell you about this, it might affect our relationship. After all, this is a big deal."
Mrs. Bai felt that Bai Tingzhi was sticky today, which she didn't like, and couldn't help but struggle out of his arms.
“Okay, husband, I’m not the one you should thank for this kind of thing.
We should be thankful for Guaiguai. If she hadn’t told us in advance, we wouldn’t have known this would happen.”
Bai Tingzhi nodded immediately. Indeed, in this matter, the person he should be grateful to is his good boy.
"Madam, I think you have contributed to this. You gave birth to this sweet baby. Thank you for giving me such a lovely child."
Mrs. Bai couldn't help but pat Bai Tingzhi on the head and asked with some amusement.
"Are you upset after learning about Zhang Jingren's affairs? Why are you acting so weird today?
I can't stand you being like this, so get out of here. I have to go back to accompany my sweetheart, so I don't have time to stay here with you."
Mrs. Bai reached out and pushed him away, then walked out.
Bai Tingzhi stayed inside for quite a while before walking out.
When he went out, he saw Mrs. Bai sleeping with her baby in her arms.
Looking at this scene on the bed, Bai Ting's heart softened.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
How lucky he is to have such a wife who gives birth to children for him.
Agreeing to marry Mrs. Bai in this life may be the best thing he has done in the first half of his life.
Fortunately, Mrs. Bai didn't hear what he was thinking, otherwise, she would definitely think that he was just too shocked and that was why he was like this.
Bai Tingzhi slowly lay down behind Mrs. Bai, hugging his wife and daughter, with only warmth left in his heart.
