"Miss, please go back first. I will find a way for you to get Mr. Qiu to marry you."
"What method?"
"Like this..." Lianxin leaned over and whispered a few words.
Bai Xinrui's eyes lit up: "That's good, that's it."
"But, young lady, you have to think carefully. If you really use this trick, your reputation will be ruined."
"Reputation is nothing. As long as I can marry Mr. Qiu, I don't care." Bai Xinrui said with a firm look.
This is what Lianxin was waiting for.
"Okay, then you can go back first, young lady. I will be back soon."
Bai Xinrui nodded, and the master and servant went their separate ways.
The servants who followed them didn't dare to get close, in fact, they really didn't know what they were talking about.
Seeing the two of them separate, he followed Lianxin directly.
Lianxin went directly to the largest teahouse on the central street and came out after a while.
The servant was a little curious, so he walked into the teahouse and took a look. He didn't see anything strange, so he hurried out and caught up with Lianxin.
Otherwise, if you lose the person, the housekeeper will scold you.
After leaving this teahouse, Lianxin went to another teahouse, and only came out of the last teahouse with a few oil-paper bags.
The servant thought she was going to buy tea and snacks, but he didn't know that Lianxin had already known that he was following her.
There were even a few times when I deliberately stopped to wait for him, for fear that he would lose me.
This servant was usually a cautious person, which was why he was sent by the housekeeper, but he didn't expect that Lianxin was even more cautious.
After returning to the Bai family, Lianxin entered the door first.
But he did not leave, but returned on purpose, just in time to see the servant coming in.
Lian Xin smiled at the boy and said, "Brother Bai Song, you just got back from doing some errands?"
The servant was startled, but calmed himself down and smiled awkwardly, "Yes, did the girl ask you to go out and buy something?"
Lian Xin lifted the oil-paper bag in her hand and replied with a smile, "I've already bought it. I just came back and found that one of my earrings had fallen off. I was just about to go back and see if I dropped it on the road."
Bai Song looked at her ear and found that one of her earrings was indeed missing.
Then he looked at the ground and saw something glowing on the ground.
When I walked over and took a look, it really was an earring.
"Miss Lianxin, take a look, is this yours?" The servant held up the earrings for Lianxin to see.
Lian Xin hurried over and thanked him happily: "Oh, I really found it. I thought I had lost it."
"Thank you so much, Brother Baisong."
"You're welcome." Bai Song looked at Lianxin and touched his head with an embarrassed smile.
This girl Lianxin is really pretty.
Lianxin smiled, thanked him again, then turned and walked into the door.
The servant also hurried into the gate to report to the housekeeper. After listening to his story, the housekeeper was so angry that he fell backwards.
"Have you ever thought of going in and asking her what she did?"
"You idiot, I thought you were smart, but you're so stupid."
The housekeeper was so angry that he didn't know what to say to him, and the servant was still a little confused.
"She went to so many teahouses, do you really think she went there to buy refreshments?"
"Since she bought some refreshments at the last one, it means she knew which teahouse had what she wanted. But she went to so many teahouses. Don't you see any problem with that?"
After hearing what the housekeeper said, the servant finally reacted.
Then he slapped his head and asked pitifully, "Butler, what should we do now?"
"Bang!" The housekeeper couldn't help but hit him on the forehead. "What else can we do? Go check what she's doing."
"Remember, money gets things done." The butler handed him a purse, and the servant quickly took it.
Ran away in a flash.
Not long after, he came back quickly, his face pale.
"Butler, it's all my fault for not investigating it thoroughly. Now, the rumors are spreading like crazy."
"Our eldest daughter of the Bai family is shameless. She has disregarded her honor and dignity to meet a man from another family. She even threatened to become the concubine of a scholar."
"Butler, please punish me. It's all because of my incompetence that Miss Lianxin spoke recklessly and ruined the Bai family's reputation."
The servant knelt on the ground crying, and the housekeeper sighed and helped him up.
"I don't blame you. Lian Xin was too smart. It was my mistake."
"I didn't expect that the young lady would disregard the reputation of the Hundred Families and go all out."
"She went to see Mr. Qiu before, but was probably rejected. She told the master that Mr. Qiu liked her, but she probably lied to him."
The butler sighed again. It was not Bai Song's fault. He had never thought that Lianxin was so smart.
"What should we do now?" asked the servant with a bitter face.
The housekeeper waved his hand: "You go first, leave this to me."
"Yes." The servant handed the purse to the butler and left.
The housekeeper thought about it and decided to go out to find Mr. Bai. The mistress had just become pregnant and he couldn't let her get angry.
In Bai Xinrui's yard.
Lianxin took the snacks to the small kitchen, put them on a plate, and then brought them to Bai Xinrui.
"Miss, don't worry, I've taken care of everything. Just wait for Mr. Qiu to come and marry you!"
Bai Xinrui was immediately happy after hearing this: "Really?"
"Please rest assured that I will do my job well." Lianxin smiled proudly.
Bai Xinrui nodded, Lianxin's work really never gave her any worries.
So she happily started eating her snacks.
Lianxin stood by and served, with a slight smile on her lips. She looked at Bai Xinrui, who was eating in a sloppy manner, with a look of mockery in her eyes.
What an idiot! She knew he was plotting against her, but she had no idea at all.
…
"Master, something bad has happened." The housekeeper finally found Master Bai in the shop.
Mr. Bai sat there with a bad look on his face. He raised his hand and said, "Don't say anything. I've heard everything. It's spread everywhere."
The butler bowed and said, "I'm sorry, sir. I failed to do my job well."
"It has nothing to do with you." Mr. Bai waved his hand, but he didn't mean to blame the butler.
Then he asked, "Tell me what you know!"
The butler relayed what the servant had told him to Mr. Bai.
"Bang!" Master Bai was furious and slammed his hand on the table: "This idiot!"
"Do you want to marry that scholar even if you don't want to be famous?"
"It's normal for him to look down on her as a young talent. If she doesn't want to marry Master Chen, then she won't. Her mother was just trying to scare her, so I just went along with her that day."
"This idiot actually wants to use this method to force others to marry her. I think she is simply crazy."
"Who is Lian Xin? Have you found out?"
"Such a scourge cannot be kept at home, let alone stay with that idiot Bai Xinrui."
"That day he was sold, and that fool still had to count the silver for others."
The housekeeper replied that there was no news yet, but they were already checking.
Mr. Bai asked him to concentrate on investigating the matter and continue to pay attention to Lianxin's movements and keep a close eye on her.
