Outside Beijing’s Xizhimen, the biggest attraction is of course the Summer Palace, which is a royal garden, but since the emperors and nobles of the Qing Dynasty took a stubborn old lady Cixi away, it has gradually become an open attraction, and it will be opened next year It's officially fully open, but it's still possible to enter now.

If you really want to say it, it was Cixi who used the money for the construction of the navy to slowly pave the Summer Palace.

Bai Xiuzhu thought about it for a long time last night, but she woke up this morning feeling quite refreshed, and told the girl, Ah Yue, to ask the piano teacher to come back the next day, and she has an appointment to go out today.

When he went downstairs, he bumped into Bai Xiongqi, who was on the phone in the living room.

Bai Xiuzhu stood on the steps, suddenly wondering if she should go down.

"Chairman Jiang said he was going to go to the field by telegram? I haven't received any news yet... Please rest assured..."

Her heart is heavy, but she knows that all of this cannot be saved, many things can only be watched as it happens, and she still does not know what power can be strong enough to stop history.

Bai Xiongqi said a few more words, then hung up the phone, turned around and saw Bai Xiuzhu still standing there, and asked, "Xiuzhu, why are you standing there so early?"

Bai Xiuzhu smiled and continued to walk down, "I saw that you were on the phone, second brother, so I stood here for a while. By the way, where is sister-in-law?"

"She's busy with work in the back." Bai Xiong sat up in front of the table, the snow-white tablecloth was hung down by a corner, showing a bit of the unique charm of a wealthy family.

"I heard that you asked the piano teacher to wait again yesterday. You always put off the teacher, but you always put it off. In the future, you should avoid going to places like Liulichang. After all, you are a girl's family, and those places are big. It’s not good for old men to mix it up.”

When Bai Xiuzhu heard this, her ears were almost full of cocoons, so she had to perfunctory: "The place I go to the most is Rongbaozhai, and the owner of that house is also good, and it is a place where scholars gather. You don't want me to study. Forcing me to drop out of school, now even Liulichang is not allowed to visit?"

The matter of forcing her to drop out of school was indeed the culprit in Bai Xiongqi's heart. He had to use his sister's marriage as a bargaining chip. He was already sorry for his parents' last words when he left, and even forced her to drop out of school, although it was out of safety for his sister. However, she did not respect her opinion.Bai Xiuzhu is a fairly independent person in his bones, and if he interferes too much, it will also affect the relationship between brothers and sisters.

He sighed, "If you say that, what else can I say? It's not that you are not allowed to go to Liulichang, but you should go less. You hired a piano teacher, so don't go too far. Those are literati with pens, After a while, it was said that our Bai Mansion bullied others, invited others and violated the contract so many times, it is not good to spread the word."

Today's literati like to write a few things when they have nothing to do, but Bai Xiongqi still doesn't dare to do anything to them. If he offends these literati, he will definitely be punished verbally, and the eighteen generations of his ancestors will be dragged out to comment one by one. Very helpless, but can only endure.

When Bai Xiuzhu heard him say this, she understood his difficulties very well, so she had to compromise: "I will go less, I have a date with a friend today, so please invite the piano teacher tomorrow."

"It's up to you, as long as you know my suffering." Bai Xiongqi had nothing to say.

After a while, Mrs. Bai also came. Bai Xiuzhu excused that she didn't want to disturb their conversation, so she left after eating, went back to her room to pack her handbag, and suddenly looked at the clothes in the closet. Tangled.

What to wear?

I wear western clothes all day long, so if I go to Xizhimen today, I'm afraid I'm going to the Summer Palace, so the western clothes won't suit me.

"Ah Yue, where did my brother order some cheongsams for me last time?"

"It's hanging in that closet."

Bai Xiuzhu walked over to have a look, and finally chose a suit to wear, but felt that the jewelry was cumbersome, so she only used pearl flower hairpins to tie up her hair, hung two strings of sapphire blue water drop agate earrings, and then walked out.

Ah Yue had just notified the driver to go all the way to Xizhimen.

She got off the car at a nearby place, but asked the driver to leave first. She would probably play for a long time today, and she would ask someone to pick her up when she came back.

At the end of March and the beginning of April, it is the peak season for viewing the scenery. At this time, the roads to Xizhimen, Xiangshan and Badachu in Beijing are very lively. There were a lot of people on the road, and her cheongsam attire was not considered gorgeous, but very low-key, so she didn't think it was too eye-catching among this group of men, women and children in red and green outings.

At the base of the old city wall, Xizhimen is also known as "Water Gate". When she walked over, she saw a man standing inside the gate wall, wearing a light gray woolen coat that was not very thick, with his hands in his pockets, and inside was a shirt and Wearing a black suit and jacket, he was leaning against the wall, standing next to the willow tree that had just sprouted buds and was soaring, looking at the buds on that branch, his eyes drooped a little, his whole face seemed to be stained with ink charm.

He raised his head lightly like that, his eyes turned around, and the skylight in the sun shone into his eyes, scattered into fine ripples, he seemed to draw his lips unconsciously, with a smile on his face Shouted: "Miss Xiuzhu..."

Bai Xiuzhu walked over, walked around the willow tree, white high-heeled shoes, and a cheongsam with a purple base was embroidered with a large white peony. That bit of vulgarity was completely gone, she was wearing an ermine vest, her snow-white arms were exposed, she was carrying a handbag, her fingernails were clean, not like the group of Miss Wu Er and the others Also painted with rich Koudan.

"Teacher Haoran came too early."

The two of them didn't agree on a time yesterday, neither of them said anything at that time, but they both came early in the morning, Bai Xiuzhu thought she was early, but she didn't expect Li Haoran to be earlier.

Li Haoran looked at Bai Xiuzhu's clothes and couldn't help saying: "It's too clean."

"If I guess wrong every time, we are going to visit the Summer Palace. It doesn't seem very good for me to go in a foreign dress. Besides, what am I doing in such a rich dress? Blind date?" After speaking, Bai Xiuzhu couldn't help laughing.

Li Haoran also laughed, but the word "blind date" touched his sensitive nerves.He turned around and walked outside, the Summer Palace can be reached after exiting the Xizhimen Gate of Beijing, the Longevity Hill is now covered by a layer of green, and the Kunming Lake is already rippling with blue waves, it is a good time to visit.

Along the way there were cart pullers soliciting passengers, Li Haoran stopped one at random, went up with Bai Xiuzhu, and said with a smile: "Miss Xiuzhu probably rarely experienced this kind of commoner transportation before?"

Bai Xiuzhu shook her head: "I used to ride before, but I can only take the car when I go to the party of ladies and wives."

The coachman drove them to the gate of the palace, Bai Xiuzhu got out of the car with the support of Li Haoran, entered the palace gate, and soon saw the largest Kunming Lake, the Seventeen-Arch Bridge lying on the lake, Bai Xiuzhu came here I've been here many times, so I don't feel how delicate and exquisite it is, and now I feel boring when I look at it.

Li Haoran saw that although she didn't show it, she was also lacking in interest, as if she was used to seeing her, so she couldn't help being curious: "Did Miss Xiuzhu come here often?"

"I've been here a few times, but the seasons are about the same. Those ladies and wives are still taking a tour of the lake. What I see the most is not exquisiteness. I like to see these people who come to swim in the lake."

Many people passed by them when Bai Xiuzhu was talking, because they came in from different palace gates, so the directions were different. Bai Xiuzhu's eyes were very indifferent, looking at her side, countless Passers-by walked past her.

A group of female students came towards them, some of them were wearing the school uniform of Renyi Girls' High School, Bai Xiuzhu recognized her, she frowned, turned to look at Li Haoran, and saw him raise his eyebrows, she seemed a little surprised.

The group of female students came over playfully, and stopped when they saw Li Haoran, "Hello, Teacher Li."

One of the female students bowed and saluted, and the people behind looked at each other, feeling very strange, but since the female student had already saluted, it was always right for them to follow suit.

"Hello Mr. Li."

"It's classmate Leng Qingqiu, it's a coincidence that he came early."

Li Haoran did not expect to meet a former student here. He had an impression of this Leng Qingqiu, because Ouyang Yujian had mentioned this female student in front of him several times, saying that she was very talented and intelligent. He is a good seedling. Before he left Renyi Girls' High School, he also had a relationship with Leng Qingqiu a few times. He also felt that Ouyang Yujian was right. Leng Qingqiu was indeed a very smart and polite person.

Leng Qingqiu, this name made Bai Xiuzhu feel dazed.

She pinched her own fingers to control her gaze and make her eyes quiet, but because she really didn't know what expression to use, she had no choice but to remain expressionless.

When the group of female students saw Li Haoran, they naturally also saw Bai Xiuzhu. While being amazed by her beauty and temperament, they also began to secretly speculate about her relationship with Li Haoran. They are still a man and a woman when they meet for a lake tour in this season. People think in that direction.

Today's Leng Qingqiu was still brought here by her classmates. She is a senior in high school this year, but at the moment she is wearing a wishful bun, with light yellow velvet ropes in her hair, and a green dress, with thin white braids fluttering around the edges. , with a veil of the color of the West Lake wrapped around her neck, her whole body looks like a hibiscus emerging from the water, beautiful and seductive.

Lily...

Bai Xiuzhu stretched out her hand to smooth her hair that was blown by the wind, she stood aside and didn't speak, she didn't speak, naturally no one dared to ask her anything.

When Leng Qingqiu and his group saw Li Haoran over there, they all laughed and left.

Li Haoran stood still, and suddenly turned to look at her jokingly: "I remember the first time we met, you asked me about Leng Qingqiu. It was the one who greeted me just now, why didn't you respond?"

Bai Xiuzhu was originally looking ahead, but when she heard this, she turned her eyes sideways and curled her lips: "Why should I ask?"

"I'm just curious, I thought you'd ask." Li Haoran suddenly felt amused, Bai Xiuzhu's current posture seemed quite aggressive.

Bai Xiuzhu turned around, looked up at him slightly, with a perfect smile on her face: "Hao Ran thinks, what kind of person am I?"

His heartbeat suddenly missed a beat.

awe-inspiring.

He forced himself not to show any strangeness, and continued: "Not a good person, probably a wicked person."

Bai Xiuzhu laughed again, she carried her handbag, stretched out her hand to gather her waistcoat, walked three steps forward, stopped again, and said to Li Haoran behind her: "Teacher Haoran, you are quite right."

The author has something to say: I don’t know how many girls have read the original book, and this plot has come to this point... Jin Yanxi and Leng Qingqiu met for the first time in the Summer Palace OJL
