Chapter 1429: Love Beauty (December Monthly Ticket Plus Thirteen)
At noon the next day, the imperial guards and carriages of the Eastern Palace appeared in Jishiditang and took Manbao into the palace to see the prince.
Afterwards, the imperial guards escorted her back to Changqing Lane, and she was safe all the way.
As soon as Manbao returned home, the concierge handed her a note saying, "Miss Man, this was delivered today by a steward."
Manbao opened the letter and took a look. It was an invitation from the Li family. Mrs. Li San’s child was celebrating his 100th day the day after tomorrow, and she was invited to attend.
The child was delivered by her via caesarean section, which was quite a coincidence.
After seeing her read it, the concierge said, "The old lady sent a message today saying that Daji has sent a letter and will arrive early tomorrow morning."
Manbao's eyes lit up, "Are you going to be home tomorrow?"
The concierge nodded. "The old lady said that Daji's letter said that his parents didn't want to leave their hometown, so he only brought his wife and children here. He asked if we could make room for them here. If not, we would let them live in Erliu Lane."
"It can be arranged," Manbao said happily, "We have already arranged it."
Bai Boan and Bai Shuping can live in a main room in the front yard. The space is not small and the beds can be put together. If the brothers are not used to sleeping together, they can also separate them, just like Bai Shan and Bai Erlang before, with a screen in the middle.
Bai Shuping wants to study, and there is an empty desk in the study.
The schools in Beijing have just started, so it's a good time to get in now. I don't know how Bai Boan will arrange it, but Daji must have an idea.
Manbao happily ran into the backyard with the post, told Mr. Zhuang and the Xiang brothers this good news, and then pulled Xiang Chao to help clean the room.
When Bai Shan and the others came back and heard about it, they also happily started busying around. Then the next morning, everyone waited together for Daji to come back.
That’s right, they have a day off today!
Even Bai Shan couldn't help but say: "We are really lucky."
Everyone nodded in unison: "Not bad."
In the early morning, two mule carts came in from the alley. Manbao spotted Daji sitting on the carts and jumped up with joy. Together with Baishan and the others, he waved to him, "Daji, Daji!"
The driver standing by looked quite sad, as he felt that he was going to lose his job.
Old Lady Liu gave Daji's indenture to him. After Daji returned to Weiyang County, he first arranged Erji's funeral. After he was buried, he took the release letter and indenture to the government office to change his status to a good person.
He wanted to bring his parents to the capital, but they had been slaves for generations and had been living in the Bai family's farm. They did not want to leave their hometown. He persuaded them for a long time, but they were unwilling to leave.
Daji then packed up his things and brought his wife and children over.
When the whole family moves, there are a lot of things to move, so the process slows down a lot.
It was the first time that Meng and Bai Shuping met Bai Shan, and they were a little reserved for a moment.
But Bai Shan was very kind and did not treat them as servants. At this time, they were indeed not servants.
After they settled in, Bai Shan asked Daji, "Have you found a school for Shuping? Do you want to try Songhe Academy?"
Daji naturally trusted Bai Shan, so he nodded and said he could give it a try.
As for Bai Bo'an, Daji had already decided on a place for him to go. "He wants to learn martial arts. I met some friends when I was a bodyguard in my early years. There happens to be an escort agency in the capital. I'll take him to see it tomorrow."
Daji then asked the two of them, "How are the young master and Miss Man doing lately?"
They both nodded, indicating that it was fine.
But Daji still found out about Manbao's car accident two days ago. They thought it was a secret and that their family members didn't know about it. However, they could hide the news from Mr. Zhuang and the Zhou family, but they couldn't hide it from the old lady.
But the children didn't want to say it, so the old lady just didn't know.
But as soon as Daji came back, the old lady sent someone to tell him not to worry about Bai Boyan and Bai Shuping, she would arrange it, and asked him to drive the carriage for Bai Shan and others the next day.
Because Manbao has decided to attend the Li family's 100-day banquet tomorrow, and she wants to bring Bai Shan and Bai Erlang with her.
Even Bai Dalang went with him.
The Hundred Days Banquet is a formal banquet. The Li and Han families are both powerful and aristocratic families, and attending the banquet is a good way to make friends.
The Bai family is also a noble family. Even though they don’t have much power now and are ranked low, they have been carrying the "Clan Records" and family tree since childhood and are not afraid to go out.
It's just that there are fewer opportunities to attend.
But isn’t this Manbao’s post? Naturally, she wants to bring her fellow disciples along.
So the next day, everyone dressed up, rode away on horseback, and left Bai Dalang riding in the carriage behind.
He was a little angry and said to Daji, "I will buy a horse later."
Daji smiled and said "yes", indicating that it was his duty.
Not only Bai Dalang was in the car, but also the gifts they had prepared, a total of three.
One share for Manbao, one share for Baishan, and one share each for Bai Dalang and Bai Erlang.
When they arrived at the Li family’s gate, Manbao jumped off his horse and waited for Bai Dalang with Bai Shan and Bai Erlang.
The three of them were dressed in bright spring clothes and were good-looking. They stood by the horse with their eyebrows raised and smiles on their faces, attracting several glances from the people who had just gotten off the car.
As soon as Bai Dalang's carriage arrived, Manbao and his friends waved and came to the door with the invitation. The housekeeper had seen Manbao a long time ago and had specially asked a servant to wait for them. As soon as she came up, she greeted them with a smile and was about to ask someone to lead them in when she heard a small exclamation from the front.
He turned his head and saw Yang Heshu on horseback. He was startled and quickly ran down, asking his servants to help stop the horses and carriages blocking the door...
Sure enough, when they saw Yang Heshu coming, some carriages on the roadside tried to move out of the way to let him pass first. As a result, they inevitably collided with other carriages, but at this time neither the ones being collided nor the ones that collided had any objections.
The car curtain was lifted, and many girls leaned on the windows to stare at Yang Heshu, and some even got out of the car to look.
Manbao and the others stood on the steps, looking at Yang Heshu riding on the horse, and exclaimed: "It's really beautiful."
Even Bai Erlang said, "I didn't realize it before when I was in Luojiang County, but after coming to the capital and comparing myself to so many people, I realized that Lord Yang is so handsome."
Bai Shan nodded.
When they were in Qili Village, there were fields in front and behind. Yang and Shu were good-looking, but the crops in the fields were more beautiful. The main reason was that they had not seen much of the world at that time and thought they were good-looking, so they didn't think much of Lord Yang.
I just like talking to him and playing with him.
But when you grow up, you will understand that this is what makes it beautiful!
Especially after they went to Yizhou City and came to the capital, they met a lot of people and realized that among so many people out there, none of them was as handsome as Yang Heshu.
Only then did I realize how precious his good looks were.
Manbao and his fellow country bumpkins were slow to catch on. By the time they realized that Yang Heshu was good-looking, they had already become friends with him. So, his good looks had become natural to them. So, at this moment, they watched Yang Heshu riding over with a smile on their faces, looking at him happily with a sense of fun and satisfaction in their hearts.
