With something on his mind, Bai Chu packed up the next morning and went to Yipinzhai.
In the store, in the morning, there were not many people at Yipinzhai, only Liang'er and a few strangers.
"A Chu, why are you here so early in the morning?" Liang'er was a little surprised to see him.
Bai Chu is good friends with Zhao Chuchu and Zhang Xiuyuan, so naturally he also has a good relationship with Qing'er and Liang'er.
Bai Chu told him the news of Bai Heng's promotion.
"Really? Congratulations. Lord Bai is a good official." Liang'er had seen many evildoers when he was in Chunman Garden before, including some powerful ones, but the only one he could truly call a "good official" was Bai Heng.
If it weren't for Lord Bai, Qing'er's brother would definitely not have been rescued so quickly. Qing'er and Liang'er were very grateful to her, and they also had a good impression of Bai Chu.
"Well, I guess Sister Chuchu will receive the news soon." As he said that, Bai Chu unconsciously looked towards the back kitchen, as if looking for something.
"What are you looking for?"
Bai Chu coughed lightly, feeling a little unnatural for some reason: "Brother Liang'er, is Xiaoshu here?"
"You're looking for Xiaoshu? That's really unfortunate. She's been away for the past two days."
Bai Chu's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and the expression on his face froze for a few seconds.
"A few days ago, Xiaoshu heard that a doctor had come to Liangzhou Prefecture who specialized in treating Qin Fulang's condition. So, she took Qin Fulang there yesterday."
Liangzhou Prefecture is a prefecture city close to Tangzhou Prefecture. It takes more than a day to get from here to Liangzhou Prefecture by carriage.
Bai Chu pursed his lips, his long eyelashes drooping, his voice slightly hoarse: "Well, did she say when she would be back?"
"It might take several days."
I probably won’t see him for several days.
Bai Chu came out of Yipinzhai and stood there in a daze for a long time, not knowing what he was thinking.
When I came to my senses, I found that I had returned to the Bai Mansion.
"Master Bai, where have you been so early in the morning?" Lu Ying seemed to be waiting for him. When she saw him come back, she immediately came to talk to him.
Bai Chu pinched his eyebrows with his fingertips, feeling inexplicably upset. He was a little tired at this moment and didn't want to talk.
Lu Ying continued to speak: "I heard that Aunt Bai got a promotion? Congratulations."
Bai Chu stopped and said lightly: "Thank you, I have something else to do, so I'll leave you first." He suddenly wanted to be alone.
After saying that, he left quickly.
Lu Ying stayed where she was, her once lively and charming self now drooping. She kicked the stones on the ground and said sullenly, "You just don't want to talk to me."
-
In the blink of an eye, two days passed. A carriage was parked outside the Bai Mansion, and the Bai Heng family was about to go to Tangzhou Prefecture.
Because Bai Heng had instructed in advance not to allow relatives and friends to see him off, there were not many people outside the mansion.
Yipinzhai
Liang'er looked up and saw Qin Shu walking in.
"Hey, Xiaoshu, you're back from Liangzhou Prefecture so soon." Liang'er originally thought she would be gone for several days.
"Well, I found the doctor and came back immediately after seeing the patient. I didn't want to delay any longer." Qin Shu said as she changed into the clothes she needed to wear when making pastries. Although Sister Chuchu and Brother Xiuyuan were very kind to her, she couldn't take everything for granted just because they were kind.
She was very grateful to them, and all she could do was make more pastries.
At this moment, Liang Er seemed to remember something and said, "Xiao Shu, I didn't know you knew Ah Chu?"
