Chapter 99: Go back where you came from
Every time his father said this, Bai Shaochuan always felt that he was exaggerating.
After all, he knew that in his father's eyes, his sister was the best.
But at this moment, looking at Jiang Yueyao walking in front of him, Bai Shaochuan felt that every word his father said was credible.
Shen Baoqing walked for a while before he remembered his fourth cousin who was following him.
She turned around and looked at him: "Cousin, are you not on duty today?"
Bai Shaochuan smiled helplessly.
"I was busy when my father called me back."
"Why did I call you back? Is there something urgent?" Shen Baoqing blinked in confusion.
Bai Shaochuan naturally wouldn't tell the truth, and only said: "It's just a small matter, it's been resolved."
"So where are you going now?"
"A colleague asked me to help him get a sample from a shop near Wanhe Tower." Bai Shaochuan took two quick steps, walked to their side, and walked side by side with them.
He looked at Jiang Yueyao and said, "There happens to be a gathering of colleagues tomorrow. I remember that the seats in the backyard of Wanhe Tower need to be reserved in advance. Please save a seat for me first. We will go there after we finish our shift tomorrow evening."
"Okay, how many people are there?"
"Three."
"There happens to be a Qushui Pavilion in the backyard that can accommodate three people. I'll keep it for you. If you can't come for something, Master Bai, please send someone to let me know."
Bai Shaochuan nodded: "Thank you."
Shen Baoqing also said to Jiang Yueyao: "Then I will go there tomorrow night. I haven't eaten the cold noodles made by Sister Lan for several days. I suddenly want to eat it."
"Okay." Jiang Yueyao stretched out her hand, "Pay the deposit first."
Shen Baoqing slapped him.
"Stingy guy, I won't pay it."
"If you don't hand it over, you won't get any food."
"I'll see if you'll give it to me." She said as she tickled her with her hands.
Jiang Yueyao had itchy spots all over her body, and she wished she could twist her body into a pretzel with just one move. Shen Baoqing loved teasing her like this, one running in front and the other chasing behind, their silver bell-like laughter filled the air all the way.
Bai Shaochuan looked at him, his lips curled up, his eyes full of smiles.
After going out of the gate, Shen Baoqing stood in front of the carriage and waited for Jiang Yueyao to get on the carriage. She looked at Bai Shaochuan who had climbed onto the horse.
"My cousin must send Yaoyao to the gate of Wanhe Tower."
"As you wish." Bai Shaochuan looked at her with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't lose her along the way."
"Hey, if you lose her, your second uncle will definitely whip you with a cane."
Bai Shaochuan nodded seriously.
"So, in order to avoid being beaten to death by my father, I will do my best to get Miss Yaoyao back safely."
Shen Baoqing was so happy that he leaned forward and backward. Jiang Yueyao opened the curtain and looked at the two of them: "Let's go."
"Go slowly, I'll come find you tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Jiang Yueyao waved at her and then lowered the curtain.
The carriage drove away from its original location, and Bai Shaochuan rode his horse beside the carriage. The tall and handsome second son of the Bai family quickly attracted passers-by.
The Bai family has always been low-key.
The children of the noble families in Beijing like to get together. Today they play Cuju, tomorrow they race horses, and the day after tomorrow they hold a poetry meeting... The four young masters of the Bai family basically do not participate in activities like these.
The eldest and second sons had already been married, so naturally they had no interest in these children's toys.
The third son, Bai Shaoting, and the fourth son, Bai Shaochuan, were both Sizhi of the Dali Temple and Siye of the Imperial College respectively. Although their official positions were only of the sixth rank, they did not rely on their family's power but climbed up the ladder entirely on their own.
Both are equally outstanding.
This is also the reason why Uncle Bai Jinyan is depressed.
His second son is no worse than Chuan Ge'er. It's just that he was working on a case outside these days and didn't have time to return to Beijing, so he missed this little bit...
Let’s not talk about this for now, and just say that at this moment Bai Shaochuan is riding a horse next to Jiang Yueyao’s carriage, heading all the way to Wanhe Tower.
Along the way, the two did not speak until the carriage stopped at Wanhe Tower and Jiang Yueyao got off the carriage.
Bai Shaochuan also turned over and got off the horse.
Jiang Yueyao looked at him with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Bai, for sending me back."
"You're welcome, Miss Yaoyao. I'm just passing by." He lowered his eyes to look at her with a gentle expression. "Go in quickly. See you tomorrow."
"Okay, take care."
After saying that, Jiang Yueyao turned around and entered Wanhe Tower.
Bai Shaochuan stood there and watched her walk in. Then he withdrew his gaze, turned around, mounted his horse, turned his horse's head, and headed towards the Imperial College.
He asked for an hour's leave, and it's probably exceeded by now.
At that time, he would inevitably be scolded by Meng Jijiu again.
but……
Bai Shaochuan thought happily that even if he was scolded, it was worth it.
My father said that although it was not confirmed that Miss Yaoyao was his cousin, the girl was really likable. If he could marry her into the family, not only him, but also his grandparents would be very happy.
After he rode away, he didn't notice that a carriage happened to pass by on the opposite side of the road.
Qingxuan drove the carriage and Qingshu sat on the shaft beside him.
As the carriage moved forward, the two men looked in the direction of Wanhe Tower at the same time. Just now, their girl was standing there, talking and laughing with the fourth young master of the Bai family.
Especially the girls, there was a bright smile between their eyebrows and eyes.
That was a smile they hadn't seen in a long time...
Qingshu's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but look at the carriage behind him... There was no movement inside, and he couldn't help but pray in his heart, hoping that his master didn't see anything.
At this moment, the man in the carriage looked at the shaking curtain.
As the car curtain swayed, he could see the scene on the street outside.
Including the scene just now at the entrance of Wanhe Tower, where Jiang Yueyao and Bai Shaochuan were standing together talking and laughing...
He looked away and closed his dark eyes.
His originally gloomy expression became even colder at this moment.
She is really amazing.
Yesterday it was Yuan Zheng, and today it is Bai Shaochuan, a legitimate son of a Grand Marshal's Mansion, and the fourth son of a Grand Tutor's Mansion, both of them have extraordinary backgrounds... She really has good taste!
After returning to the Taifu Mansion, Lu Sui had just entered the study when the housekeeper came over.
Holding the account book in his hand, he said, "This was sent by Miss Jiang from Wanhe Tower this morning. She said that the accounts for the past month are all here for you to review."
Lu Sui paused his movements.
Qingshu, who was standing by, heard this and asked hurriedly, "Isn't the girl here yet?"
"No, we sent a waiter to deliver it." The butler was a little confused. "But something went wrong."
"It's okay, it's okay. Give me the account book and go do your work first."
After the housekeeper left, Qingshu was about to put the account book on the desk when Lu Sui spoke.
"Send someone to send this account book back, saying there are many unclear points, and ask her to come back tomorrow night."
When Qingshu heard this, he paused.
"The girl has a stubborn temper, she may not..."
"There are many people who want to be the owner of Wanhe Tower. If she doesn't want to, then let her go back to where she came from!"
The voice is extremely cold.
Very heavy.
When Qingshu heard this, how could he dare to say a word?
He hurriedly took the account book and went out, found someone and gave him some instructions.
Finally, he gave another special explanation.
"If the girl doesn't want to, just tell her that the master's stomach disease has recurred..."
