After dealing with the thugs, Bai Linglong walked up to the little girl.
He took out a silver ingot from his sleeve, handed it to the little girl, and said, "Little girl, take this silver and take care of your grandfather's funeral first."
The little girl was stunned. She didn't expect that someone would help her and donate generously.
After taking the silver with trembling hands, she knelt on the ground with a plop and cried even harder: "Sister, you are so kind and virtuous. I have no way to repay you. I am willing to work like a cow or a horse for you!"
Bai Linglong quickly helped her up and said gently, "Girl, please get up quickly. I just saw these evil people committing crimes.
Go and bury grandpa first, and we can talk about other things later. ”
With the help of Bai Linglong, the little girl successfully buried her grandfather.
Afterwards, the little girl found Bai Linglong again and said firmly: "My benefactor, I have no one to rely on. I beg you to take me in and let me be your slave to repay you for saving my life!"
Bai Linglong looked at her with pity in her eyes and asked, "Do you really have no other place to go?
Where are your other relatives? ”
The little girl's eyes were red and she sobbed, "My parents passed away early, and it was my grandfather who brought me up. Now that my grandfather is gone, I really have nowhere to go.
Sister, if you take me in, I really know what to do. ”
Bai Linglong sighed slightly and said, "In that case, just follow me.
I am planning to find a place with beautiful scenery to settle down. If you are willing, you can go with me. ”
When the little girl heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes, and she nodded quickly: "Sister, I do!
Wherever you go, I'll follow you!
As long as I am by your side, I can do anything. ”
Therefore, Bai Linglong took the little girl on the journey to find a place to live.
They listened all the way and finally arrived at Qingyan Mountain in Chuzhou.
It is surrounded by green mountains, gurgling green water and beautiful scenery, just like a paradise.
Bai Linglong fell in love with this place at first sight. She used the wealth she brought out from the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion to purchase a large piece of land, and invited craftsmen to start building houses.
At the same time, she also bought several honest servants to help manage household affairs.
During the process of building the house, Bai Linglong and the little girl gradually became familiar with each other.
The little girl's name is Xiao Cui. She has been loved by her parents since childhood. Although her family is poor, she is innocent and kind.
She was very grateful to Bai Linglong and tried her best in everything, and Bai Linglong treated her like her own sister.
"Xiao Cui, what kind of flowers do you think we should plant in this yard in the future?"
Bai Linglong pointed at the yard and asked Xiao Cui with a smile.
Xiao Cui tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "Miss, how about planting some peach blossoms?"
In spring, the peach blossoms are pink and tender, which must be very beautiful. ”
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Bai Linglong nodded, with a gentle smile on her face.
A few months later, an exquisite mansion rose from the ground at the foot of Qingyan Mountain.
The courtyard is fully equipped with pavilions, towers, flowers, plants and trees, making it like a paradise on earth.
Bai Linglong and Xiao Cui officially settled down here.
Bai Linglong plants flowers and plants in the yard every day to take care of her body. Her life is peaceful and comfortable.
As the fetus in her belly gradually grew, her heart was filled with anticipation.
Xiao Cui took good care of her and waited with Bai Linglong for the new life to come.
The sun is warm and the breeze blows gently across the Qingyanshan courtyard.
Bai Linglong was one month pregnant and was sitting leisurely on a stone bench in the yard, enjoying a moment of tranquility.
Xiao Cui was carefully trimming the branches of flowers at the side. When she raised her eyes, her gaze fell on Bai Linglong's slightly bulging belly, and a hint of doubt flashed across her face.
She put down the scissors in her hand, walked forward, her tone full of concern and understanding:
"Miss, why does your belly look so big? It doesn't look like you're only a month old. It looks more like you're six months old."
Bai Linglong lowered her head and looked at her belly, a trace of doubt arose in her heart.
She stroked her abdomen, thought for a moment and then said, "Now that you mention it, I also feel something is a little strange.
Maybe I have been taking too much nourishment these days, or maybe..." She paused here and said, "Let me check my pulse again." ”
After saying this, Bai Linglong held her breath and placed her slender fingers on her pulse.
At first, she looked calm, but as she felt the pulse beating with her fingertips, her expression gradually became solemn and her eyes widened unconsciously.
Her hands trembled slightly, and she dared not believe the pulse she had detected.
"Xiao Cui..." Bai Linglong's voice trembled a little.
"I...I'm pregnant with twins."
The scissors in Xiao Cui's hand fell to the ground with a clang. She was shocked and her mouth opened wide: "Twins?
Miss, please don't scare me, this...how is this possible? ”
In Xiao Cui's understanding, twins are too rare.
But during her time in Qingyan Mountain, she had already firmly believed in Bai Linglong's medical skills, so after being shocked, she was more worried about Bai Linglong.
"It's absolutely true. I have double-checked it."
Bai Linglong took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "No wonder my belly is so obvious. It turns out there is a little life in my belly."
Xiao Cui quickly walked over to Bai Linglong and held her hand tightly: "Miss, this is too easy.
Your life will definitely be more difficult in the future, but don't worry, no matter what, I will always be by your side to accompany you and take care of you. ”
Bai Linglong held Xiao Cui's hand in return, a warm feeling welling up in her heart: "Xiao Cui, I feel much more at ease without you.
It's just that this matter of twins should not be spread for the time being. I'm afraid that if the news gets out, it will cause unnecessary trouble. ”
Xiao Cui nodded vigorously, her eyes firm: "Miss, don't worry, I'm very tight-lipped and I will definitely not tell anyone."
In the following days, Bai Linglong used the system to consult a lot of information about the pregnancy and delivery of multiple births, and learned various care and conditioning methods.
Xiao Cui stood by and carefully prepared various meals according to Bai Linglong's instructions, taking care of her meticulously.
"Miss, I stewed this according to the recipe you gave me. Please try it."
Xiao Cui held the bowl of soup and looked at Bai Linglong expectantly.
Bai Linglong took the soup bowl, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Xiao Cui, your cooking skills are getting better and better. This soup tastes really good."
Xiao Cui showed a happy smile on her face: "As long as Miss likes it, you are pregnant with a little baby now, so you have to take more care of it."
As her belly grew bigger day by day, Bai Linglong's movements became slower and slower, but her eyes were full of anticipation for the future.
She knew that the arrival of this little life would bring earth-shaking changes to her life.
