Chapter 1650: My Own Child (January Monthly Ticket Plus 6)
Without waiting for Minister Liu to speak, Madam Liu immediately sent for Liu Huan to be brought back from the ancestral hall. "Hurry up and send him to the study to study. Don't let him miss tomorrow's exam."
Minister Liu: ...
He tried his luck and said, "Tell him I'll check after dinner. If he can't recite it, I'll break his legs!"
Bai Family Servant: ...What should I do if I feel like I've made a mess of things?
He went back nervously and told the young master about it. Bai Shan said nonchalantly, "It's okay. Old Madam Liu is here. He probably won't go back in after he comes out."
But Bai Shan was also surprised, "Isn't it just a punishment of kneeling, but no beating?"
"No, I asked around and heard that Young Master Liu was scolded and rushed to the ancestral hall to kneel. He was there for less than three quarters of an hour."
Bai Shan was afraid that he would be beaten badly, so he went home to rest for a while and then immediately sent his servants over. Who knew that the man was not beaten at all, but was just kneeling in the ancestral hall.
Bai Shan shook his head, put the matter behind him, and ran to see the servants' arrangements.
Bai Dalang's bridal chamber was located in Changqing Lane.
Mr. Bai sent people around the city and asked many brokers, and finally found that the house that Bai Shan and his family had rented before was the best.
Coincidentally, the landlord also wanted to sell the house, so Mr. Bai made up his mind and asked for a high price to buy the house.
The courtyard has two entrances and a small garden. Not only can the young couple Bai Zhi live here, but even their whole family can live here.
Moreover, Changqing Lane is not far from the Imperial College and Zhou's residence, so it is very convenient for Bai Dalang to go to school or interact with his brothers.
Mr. Bai bought the house very quickly, so decorating it was much easier. With the help of Mrs. Liu, the place was quickly decorated.
After some discussion among the families, Chengjia finally decided to follow the advice of the others and marry from Zhou's house, so the Zhou family also had to make some arrangements.
At least the main gate must be decorated with red, and the corridor from the inner courtyard to the main gate must also be decorated with red.
When Manbao and his friends came back, both houses had already finished decorating their rooms. Even the word "囍" (囍) was pasted on the window frames, and the house was filled with joy.
Because they were getting married on the third day, Bai Dalang had to move to Changqing Lane. After Bai Erlang and Bai Shan wandered around the house, Master Bai urged them to move there together.
"You guys have to come over to welcome the bride the day after tomorrow morning, okay?"
Bai Shan asked, "Where is your cousin staying tonight?"
Mr. Bai said, "Like you, I also live in Changqing Lane."
Not only Mr. Bai, but also Mr. Zhuang and Zhou Lixue were dragged to Changqing Lane by Mr. Bai. "This way, there will be more people to welcome the bride the day after tomorrow, and it will be more lively."
Bai Shan said: "It will be the same if we go there tomorrow..."
"Same as what? Go to the greenhouse two days early, okay? You can help check if there's anything missing. After all, this is your brother's first marriage, so don't make any mistakes."
Mr. Bai was also holding a wedding for his son for the first time, so he was a little nervous. So under his strong request, the few people who had just returned home and had not yet had time to sit down went back to Changqing Lane.
When they arrived at the familiar Changqing Lane, Bai Shan and the others were stunned.
Manbao, who had come to join in the fun, was also stunned. She glanced at the gate and couldn't help but reach out and touch it, asking, "Is this where we lived before?"
Mr. Bai looked around and lowered his voice, "I heard that last year, assassins came to our house and killed several people at the door. Blood was splattered on the door. I took a closer look and found that there was blood on the door, so I asked someone to replace it with a new one."
Mr. Bai not only had the door replaced, he even pried up and replaced the threshold and the bluestone slabs in front of the door.
Now everything from the bluestone slabs to the threshold and then to the main door is brand new. Manbao and the others exclaimed in surprise. When they pushed the door open and went in, they saw many large flower pots in the front yard. There were lush trees and gorgeous flowers in them, all hung with red cloth, which looked very festive.
When you go in again, the inside is also clean and looks brand new.
They never knew that the place where they had lived for almost a year could become like this.
The changes were even greater in the main courtyard at the back. Mr. Bai lamented, "If time wasn't so tight, I'd have them repaint the house. For one thing, I'd even paint these wood panels."
Bai Dalang was sweating when he heard this and said quickly, "Dad, this house is not shabby. It looks good. There is no need to repaint it."
"This is your first marriage, how can we be careless?" Mr. Bai sighed at this point. "Actually, if the timing wasn't wrong, we should have gotten married at home. Your grandmother and mother are here, so it would be very convenient. We could hang red ribbons at the village entrance then..."
Mr. Bai had obviously imagined this many times in his mind, and now he felt very regretful.
At the end of his speech, he looked at Bai Erlang and said, "Erlang, this is how your marriage will be arranged from now on."
Shirojiro:......
Bai Dalang looked at his brother sympathetically and immediately went to see the new house.
Bai Shan and Man Bao both looked at Bai Erlang with some envy, and then they said, "Actually, we can do the same when we get married."
Shirojiro:......
He turned his head to look at the two of them, and saw that they were actually very serious, especially their faces were a little red. He couldn't stand it anymore, "You actually think my dad's idea is good?"
Bai Shan said, "Isn't it good? The red ribbons are all hung at the entrance of the village. How grand."
Manbao said, "What a lively scene."
Bai Erlang turned his head and ignored them.
Everyone ran to see Bai Dalang's new house.
The bridal chamber was also decorated, and Bai Dalang said to Bai Erlang, "I will tell you these two nights."
Bai Shanze was curious, "Brother, who rolls in bed with you?"
Mr. Bai sighed and said, "Manbao has a nephew named Batou, but unfortunately she doesn't have a niece of the right age, so we found a family in the alley. However, I asked around and they only have one son and one granddaughter. They're far less fortunate than the Zhou family. I wanted to ask the matchmaker to help us rent a better one, but the 20th is a rare auspicious day. I heard that there are already eight people in the capital who want to get married on that day, so all the lucky boys and girls have been snatched up."
This was the only thing that made Mr. Bai dissatisfied. "After all, we are from outside and cannot compete with them."
Mr. Bai thought about it and came up with a crooked idea. "How about letting Seven-Head and Eight-Head roll around in bed together that day? With three lucky boys, maybe even more good fortune will come."
Bai Shan and the others thought this was a good idea and agreed with it.
Mr. Zhuang, who had been walking around with his hands behind his back, twitched his lips when he heard this. He finally knew who Erlang looked like. He was indeed Mr. Bai's biological son.
