Before the sun set, Bai got on the carriage back home.
I opened the car slightly and looked outside. The streets of the capital were now bustling with traffic.
Bai has been in Beijing for several years, and has only gone out a few times.
This time, Gu Yan was at home when they went out to play mahjong. If he wasn't at home, Bai Shi wouldn't go out so often.
After a long sigh, Mrs. Bai asked Mrs. Chang, "Chang'er, do you think there is still a chance to return to Jiangnan?"
Mother Chang smiled and comforted her, "Miss, when my brother and sister grow up, they will come back one day. Besides, the master will be in Beijing soon, so don't be sad."
Yes, Mr. Bai will come to Beijing next month.
Mrs. Bai put away her sudden sadness and discussed with Mrs. Chang how to entertain Mr. Bai.
When I returned to the Marquis' Mansion, I met Gu Yankai for the first time.
Gu Yankai was sitting in the room with the military newspaper in his hand. The maid said that he had been sitting there for a while.
Bai walked forward and asked, "My Lord, is there something wrong?"
Gu Yan put down the military newspaper in his hand, looked up at Bai Shi and said, "Nothing, it's just that we haven't had dinner together for a long time."
Bai nodded and said, "Okay, then wait for me to wash and change clothes."
Gu Yankai rubbed his face as he watched Bai leave. He cursed himself inwardly, wondering why he was so nervous.
The two of them had a silent dinner. After dinner, Gu Yankai suggested, "Why don't we go see the child together?"
Of course, Mrs. Bai would not object. When she saw Gu Yankai shaking Sister Can until she started laughing, Mrs. Bai happily said, "Sister Can is laughing."
Gu Yankai said proudly: "Yes, I laughed at it in the afternoon."
Looking at Gu Yankai's proud look, he was just like a child waiting for praise.
Mrs. Bai felt goose bumps on her arms. She lowered her head and looked at Ye Ge'er and said, "The Marquis is really good at coaxing children."
Suddenly showing his big white teeth, Gu Yankai didn't know he was so happy. Then he lowered his head and looked at Sister Can with her little mouth raised and said: "This is my good daughter, I will naturally love her."
After the two children fell asleep, Bai said goodbye to Gu Yan and prepared to leave.
Gu Yankai stepped forward and grabbed Bai's hand from behind, and the servants dispersed immediately after being told what to do.
Bai turned around and looked at Gu Yankai and asked, "My Lord, what is this?"
Gu Yankai seemed to be awakened, scratched his head awkwardly and said, "No, it's okay." Then he let go of Bai's hand.
After glancing at Gu Yankai inexplicably, Bai turned around and went back to Jiaxi Hall.
Gu Yankai stood there for a long time, then looked up at the moon in the sky.
After a moment, Gu Yankai spoke again, "The moon is getting darker, half of the houses are illuminated by it, the Northern Dipper is tilted, and the Southern Dipper is slanted."
Gu Yankai, with his hands behind his back, recited two lines of poetry about missing someone, sighed deeply, and went to his own yard.
After returning to Jiaxi Hall, Bai asked someone to bring hot water and wash her wrists thoroughly.
I really don't understand what Gu Yankai is thinking. Could it be that he just drank two glasses of wine and got drunk? Did he mistake the Bai family for the Daqin family?
After shaking her head, Bai cursed in her heart: What a lustful ghost!
Gu Yankai returned to his yard and thought about what happened in the afternoon when he visited Gu Tingyu. How could such a young child have so many thoughts?
He had never thought about it that way before, but now that the evidence is right in front of him, it would be fine if Yu Ge'er didn't admit his mistake, but he also tried to distort the truth and accuse Bai of wrongdoing.
He sighed deeply again. Gu Yankai never thought that he had changed his mind.
If he continued to indulge in the love web woven by Daqin, even if Bai showed him Gu Tingyu killing someone on the spot, he would not believe it and would just think that Bai was acting.
