[Rat and Cat] Han Palace Autumn

A serious-looking old man walked in. Although he was old, his back was still straight.He looked around majestically, and when he saw Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang at the table, his expression cracked, and he almost collapsed.Seeing Bai Yutang winking exaggeratedly, he hesitated for a moment before walking forward as usual.

"How do you cook this dish, huh? I've never eaten this kind of food before!" Bai Yutang then yelled loudly, took out a piece of folded rice paper from his bosom and handed it over secretly, the old man raised his eyebrows and cooperated He said coldly: "I don't know what this young master has to teach?"

The two came and went, but their expressions had nothing to do with their words. Zhan Zhao also smiled at the old man, greeted with his mouth, and then said to Bai Yutang: "Okay, Brother Tang, I think the dishes here are also delicious." Not that bad."

——Of course he knows this old man, Bai Fu, the old butler of the Bai family, who even the current head of the family, Bai Jintang, respects when he sees him.His parents were in poor health, and the second sister often sent him to Bai's house after she married Big Brother Bai so that he could have a companion—so he and Bai Yutang almost grew up under the nose of this old man. So close.

The old man also stroked the top of his hair with a smile, and then gave Bai Yutang a hard look, which meant that they were very familiar with it: Look how good Xiao Zhao is, let's look at you again!

Bai Yutang helplessly supported his forehead, and he didn't know what was going on. Since he was a child, the adults in the family liked Zhan Zhao more than him. Didn't he know that the cat was also listless, but he just behaved well-behaved - the more he liked it when he was not convinced. For teasing him, not only was he punished, but he also had to accept the endless accusations from the elders.

But... Now that the buddy has become a daughter-in-law, the mentality is naturally different.

Bai Yutang continued, but it turned into arguing with Uncle Fu.Uncle Fu raised his eyebrows in surprise—when was this little white mouse so obedient?His eyes glanced over Zhan Zhao, but suddenly he froze—there was a faint trace of rose on the neckline, and he naturally understood what it was... It's just that this child has kept himself clean since he was a child, and now they want to hide their names. At this time, he absolutely has no reason to... with a woman.

Uncle Fu has seen a lot of things in his life, and when he saw Bai Yutang's eyes on Zhan Zhao and his abnormal behavior, he felt a "thump" in his heart, but he couldn't be sure, so he couldn't ask at this time, so he could only ask. Pressing the question back to my heart, I secretly prayed that the guess would not come true.

It's not that he hates this kind of thing, it's just that he feels that it is against common sense, not to mention how stupid the world is, this road will be difficult, and he doesn't want these two such excellent children to step in and taste the hardship .

Looking at them again worriedly, he had no choice but to shake his sleeves and back out the door. After looking at the closed door, he didn't dare to stop any longer. He hurried downstairs and told the staff in the building loudly: "To the bamboo garden." The guests are seated at the same table again... don't let them pick out the thorns again!"

In the private room, Bai Yutang was asking for credit from Zhan Zhao, but he saw a worried expression on his face: "Yutang, I saw Uncle Fu just now, he seems to have noticed something..."

Bai Yutang was taken aback for a moment, and then said nonchalantly: "If you see it, you can see it. Shouldn't the matter between the two of us be hidden from the family? I think it's better to let him see some clues now, so as not to be too shocked at the time." Big... After all, the old man is getting old, so let him accept it slowly and be gentle."

Zhan Zhao was silently shocked by his thick skin, and then got used to seeing it. He thought about Uncle Forbe's expression just now, and felt that it wasn't as bad as he imagined...Forget it, he sighed, the matter Up to now, let's take a step by step. "

The two of them fed themselves thoroughly with the next banquet, and then wandered back to the palace. As for how the tail behind them would describe their behavior this day, it was not something they had to worry about.

Besides, Uncle Fu got Bai Yutang's "passing letter", and hurried to Jinhua to hand the letter to Bai Jintang.When Bai Jintang received the letter, he was still a little puzzled - his second brother was never a gentleman, how could the trustee send him a letter?After he opened it and browsed through it, he was a little stunned, and at the same time he was a little dumbfounded—this kid really only thinks of his big brother when he needs it.

He rolled up the letter paper, patted it on the other hand, frowned and pondered for a while, and said to Forbe: "What happened when you saw him? Could it be that he was in trouble?"

"Yes, young master." Although Bai Jintang has taken over as the head of the family, out of habit, the old housekeeper is still more accustomed to calling him and Bai Yutang by their old names. This habit cannot be changed, and the Bai family does not want him to change it. When he was the Second Young Master, he was with Young Master Zhao, but both of them used aliases, and they pretended to be finding fault in a restaurant when they talked to me." Having said this, he smiled wryly. If I'm really looking for trouble, my old bones will have to be dismantled by him."

Bai Jintang smiled: "That's right, he said in the letter that he and Zhan Zhao were carrying out a secret operation, and asked me to help him find Juque and Huaying from Yunyang and send them to him—good guy , the swordsman can lose his own sword, these two little ones are getting smarter and smarter... Hey, I want to fake the identities of the two rich men in Jinhua-heh, he is the shopkeeper, and he doesn't want to fabricate it out of thin air How troublesome is it to come up with two identities that can stand the test..."

Seeing the old housekeeper frowning, he added with a smile: "Let's not talk about these troublesome things, but the brat brought back some good news. He said he found me a sister-in-law, and after this incident, he brought it back to me." I palm my eyes—" he raised his eyebrows as he said, "It's amazing, with his eyes above the top, he can find the girl he likes, and I thought he was going to hug that kid from the Zhan family For a lifetime!"

Butler Bai Fu's expression was very complicated, showing surprise at one moment, and hesitation at another, hesitating for a while, and finally said to Bai Jintang as if making up his mind: "Eldest Young Master, I saw Second Young Master this time, and saw him and Young Master Akira seems to be quite intimate..."

There was another pause at this point, Bai Jintang patiently did not interrupt, he knew that this butler who had been cautious all his life would not talk nonsense that everyone knew, so he just waited quietly, and it was up to him to decide what to do. Don't go on.

Finally, concern for the two children prevailed, and the old housekeeper continued: "It's different from before... No, I can't say it's completely different, it's just that there seemed to be some separation before, but now that barrier has been pierced. And I saw...on Xiao Zhao's neck, there seemed to be some marks that shouldn't be there..."

Bai Jintang's expression finally changed. He had no doubts about the housekeeper's analysis. After all, he was an old man who had been up and down in the world for most of his life, and he knew far more about the two young ones than his elder brother. of……

"Yo, what are you talking about?" A beautiful woman in palace attire walked into the room slowly, her face was almost similar to Zhan Zhao's, except that there were less strong edges and corners, and more gentle curves—it was The wife of the head of the Bai family, Zhan Zhao's second sister, Zhan Yao.

Zhan Yao held a pot of stew in her hand, she put it gently on the table, turned around and straightened Bai Jintang's collar, and said softly: "Go and drink some soup, you are too busy recently, you need to replenish your body ...I seemed to hear Xiao Zhao's name outside the door just now? What's wrong with him, is there anything wrong?"

"It's nothing, Yao'er." Brother Bai shook his head, stepped forward to open the lid of the steamer, and took a deep breath, "It smells so good, what did you put in it today?"

Zhan Yao was still staring at his face, a little meaningful.Bai Jintang shook his head helplessly, knowing that the members of the Zhan family would never be able to deal with matters involving Zhan Zhao, so he could only put his hand on his shoulder: "Oh, it's not the second brother, he and Xiao Zhao...cough Cough, we are also guessing that the two children have been in love since childhood, maybe it's just that they have become closer after not seeing each other for a few years."

Zhan Yao was silent for a moment, she could naturally hear what Bai Jintang had said, but... she smiled slightly: "If it's true, what are you going to do?"

Bai Jintang was at a loss for words for a moment, he was only concerned about worry and shock just now, but he didn't think so long-term like Zhan Yao who is a woman, and after thinking about it for a while, he also laughed - yes, what else can it be, these two They couldn't be more clear about the child's personality. Bai Yutang was as hot as the sun, and he only acted according to his own preferences since he was a child, and didn't care about other things at all; If you make up your mind, you really don't look back when you hit the south wall. The same is true for traveling in the rivers and lakes, the same is true for entering Kaifeng Mansion, and the same is true for feelings.

"Oh, my younger brother of Bai Jintang, the young master of Bai Zhan's family, he can do whatever he wants. How can we pay attention to the people in this world... As long as they can be happy and happy, what should we worry about? ?”

Zhan Yao's smile became more and more gentle, she walked forward slowly, leaning her head gently on Bai Jintang's chest: "Thank you, Jintang."

"There is nothing to be thankful for. Yutang is my own younger brother, Xiao Zhao. I have loved him as a younger brother since I was a child. We don't ask for anything else for these two little ones. We just hope that they will be safe and happy. Le? Both of them have very strong ideas, so they naturally know what to do and what not to do. If they really make up their minds, it must be after a lot of consideration. Forcibly obstructing it will only be counterproductive... Now it's just, your elder brother, Do you want to tell him?"

Xiumei frowned slightly, Zhan Yao raised her head, and shook her head: "For the time being, I don't want it anymore. After my mother passed away, my elder brother... is already under a lot of pressure. This matter has not yet been determined, so don't bother him yet."

Bai Jintang sighed: "Zhan Hui is just too strong... He and Xiao Zhao are really equally worrying.

Zhan Yao stretched out her hand to smooth the mark between his brows: "Don't think too much, it's not a day or two for the elder brother, besides, don't you know his ability? He will naturally take good care of himself, which is comparable to Xiao Zhao is much stronger—" He covered his mouth and laughed again, "But now that my second brother is by Xiao Zhao's side, I really feel much more at ease."

"Isn't it?" Bai Jintang also laughed, "That kid is the most particular about daily life, he is sincere to Xiao Zhao, and will take good care of him, so we don't have to worry about it - in this way, I think they The two are together, there is no better match, otherwise, I really don't know what kind of woman can hold down the second brother, and what kind of woman can use such a strong posture to stare at Xiao Zhao well? "

Zhan Yao covered her lips with a smile and said, "You're right, haha, I can't wait to know the truth of the matter now... Eldest brother will definitely agree, but with his old-fashioned thinking that is exactly the same as Xiao Zhao, I'm afraid it will be difficult I was terrified..."

"Haha," Bai Jintang laughed loudly... "I really want to see what kind of expression he has on his ice face, which has been calm and unchanged all year round, with cracks!"

He thought to himself: That brat is very capable, and he managed to get the two biggest treasures without making a sound. Heh heh, let him deal with the difficult brother-in-law himself—remember how he used to marry Yaoer Fei After going through a lot of hardships, that big iceberg is not an easy person to get along with.Not to mention, now that he has abducted his sister, that life-or-death little white mouse stretched out its claws on his precious younger brother... Hehe, second brother, it's really not that the eldest brother won't help you, you should ask for more Fu!
