companion marriage

Beside the lake, on a soft couch under a lush tree, a woman lay squinting on it, the summer sun was shining gently through the mottled gaps in the shade of the trees.

It's just that the woman's face was a little too pale. It was obviously summer, but a thin blanket was covering her knees, and she was holding a book in her hands leisurely.A white pompom puppy lazily raised its paws and let out a breath, then opened its mouth in a very humane way, and stood on the woman's lap, its round eyes seemed to be filled with water, revealing a A delightful wit.

"What are you looking at me for?" Bai Xiaoyan coughed a few times, picked up the handkerchief next to her and covered her lips.

"Children of the Bai family, I found out that ever since you met that human being from the royal family, you have written words all over your face~~~" When he said this, he flicked the tips of his little claws with a smile on his teeth, and bounced It bounced slowly on Bai Xiaoyan's leg.

"One word?" Bai Xiaoyan frowned slightly, looking at the teeth that kept jumping up and down, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

"Hmm~~Let me think about it, what is that word called~~~" It seemed that he was talking about excitement, and his teeth bounced even more joyfully. "Remember, it's the word 'bad'!" Lin Zhong remembered the cheerful barking of the puppy, but Bai Xiaoyan understood every bit of the demon language that only she could understand. "That's right, that's right, bad character! Children of the Bai family, you're bad enough!" It was definitely more joyful dog barks, and those gloating voices couldn't help but make the veins on Bai Xiaoyan's forehead twitch and twitch.

"Yagi, don't jump anymore!" With bulging veins, Bai Xiaoyan lowered her eyes, her teeth gnashing loudly. "I'm a patient anyway, you don't have any sympathy at all?!"

"Son, can you control me!" As soon as he raised his head, the little man's teeth jumped even harder, trying to use all the strength of its small body to press on the four little hooves.

Almost quickly, he threw the teeth out with a flick of his hand, and when the little guy was about to get angry and jump, he decisively took out the bone from his bosom and threw it away in an arc.In an instant, the demon-like Yaya had already barked and ran to the place where the bone was thrown, hugging the white bone and "lingering to death" almost didn't stage a "meet and hate late".

Bai Xiaoyan sighed and rubbed her temples, she knew that she would not hear good things from Yan Ya's mouth!But having said that, ever since I met that Highness, it seems that I really want to say what Yan Ya said, a word of "bad" has brought out my experience in just a few days 'to the fullest',

Bai Xiaoyan 囧囧 looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle with a spirit, her expression was bright and sad, and she pretended to be a little girl with a sad past and autumn. That 'pseudo-suffering' look couldn't help but make the senior official Liu who stepped in feel very embarrassed He retched.

"Liu Nianxin, if you want to vomit, just go out. This villa doesn't welcome people who can't even take care of their own hygiene." The corner of Bai Xiaoyan's mouth twitched, but the words that spit out made Mr. Liu roll his eyes.

"You look like a patient, why can't you express your weak expression with your mouth?!" Liu Nianxin pouted, sat on the chair next to her indifferently, picked up a crystal grape and threw it into her mouth , smashed a few mouthfuls, rolled his eyes around and looked at Bai Xiaoyan with a paralyzed face, grinned unscrupulously and said: "By the way, seeing how weak you are, I finally understand what it means to repay evil with good." It’s bad news, it’s not that the time has not come~~~” Opening the paper fan with a swipe, Officer Liu slapped it a few times gracefully. "Hey~~ Who was it that day~~ Spit the saliva on the face of a senior official~~Tsk tsk~"

Isn't it because I vomited on your face that day, so it is necessary to "show off" like a villain now!Bai Xiaoyan twitched her brows, and the expression on her face was called 'Speechless'. "If you want to continue to look at me, just sit here. If you don't want to, please ask Mr. Liu to turn around and leave at 45 degrees."

"Oh, Xiao Chenchen really has no conscience. Why do you want to push him away when people come to see you like this~~" Liu Nianxin, who turned into Xiaoerlang, pointed her fingers shyly, seeing that a good fan was about to be buried in her in the poisonous hands.

Eyes trembled into dead fish eyes, Bai Xiaoyan was speechless for a moment, shut her eyes, and decided not to pay attention to this pretending and addicted guy.

Seeing that the only audience here closed their eyes and didn't look at it, Liu Nianxin raised her eyebrows, dragged the chair to Bai Xiaoyan, and said with a mean smile: "Hey! Ah Chen, I think you are good enough, I heard that you passed out three times in one day, tell my sisters that I passed by, I am so curious~~~"

"Go away..." Almost uttering these words between her teeth, Bai Xiaoyan's eyes showed a fierce look, and her expression was definitely not good.

"Oh~~ Why do you treat others like this? Anyway, they came to see you from such a distance, and the Bai Daguan is still cruel to him. He is so sad~~ Hey." I don't know where to swipe and take out the handkerchief, Liu Erlang stretched out his slender fingers to be beside Bai Xiaoyan sadly, resting his head on the other's shoulder, wiping the corners of his eyes where there were no tears at all, and there was a 'beep' sound from his mouth that made Bai Xiaoyan's hair stand on end in an instant.

Staring like a ghost, Bai Xiaoyan's mouth was half-opened, and she looked at the serious official Liu who was clearly involved in the drama in astonishment, the corners of her mouth twitched for several rounds.

"... Just kidding, why are you so scared." He pouted his lips in disdain, and the expression of "grievance" just now disappeared immediately, and Mr. Liu pulled the chair under his buttocks back a little distance, pretending Coughing, she resumed her dignified appearance of a Confucian businessman.

"Okay, you succeeded. I was indeed frightened." Bai Xiaoyan's face was paralyzed, and one sentence successfully made the corners of Mr. Liu's mouth tremble. "I never thought you could be so disgusting..."

"...You really don't look like a sick person." Mr. Liu said speechlessly.

"Oh. Thank you for the compliment." Hearing the other party's sarcasm straight away, Bai Xiaoyan smiled shamelessly, and what made Mr. Liu even more depressed was that she even showed a mouthful of small white teeth that seemed to be glistening with blood. "If you have nothing to do, you can get out smoothly."

"Hey! I came to see you anyway, so you treat me like this?" Pointing at herself, Liu Nianxin puffed her face. "That's the same thing as staying with me for dinner anyway!"

"Then get out after lunch." The little white tooth cup was sealed in her mouth instantly, and Bai Xiaoyan continued to maintain her facial paralysis.

"I told you, I'm not leaving yet! I'm just relying on you. The more you drive me away, the harder it is to leave!" Liu Baozi glared angrily at his white face, his arms crossed in front of his chest, and sat down. Sitting on the chair can be said to be as stable as a bell.

"Then I won't drive you away..." You can go, before Bai Xiaoyan finished speaking, the official Liu over there smiled like a flower.

"Then respectful is worse than obedience~~~~(^o^)/~"

Can she take back what she just said? . . . . .Bai Xiaoyan rolled her eyes feebly, not even bothering to use the strength to sigh.

"Are you trying to trick me like that on purpose..." Bai Xiaoyan looked at Liu Daguan, who was beaming with joy, not treating herself as an outsider, and started eating and drinking like a dead fish.

"Oh~~~ Officer Bai is really disgusting, you are the one who strongly urged him to stay, why are you talking about it? Tsk tsk, the cakes served by Uncle Qing are really delicious, and Officer Bai is really, really Didn't you send it to me from time to time? It's a good thing we've known each other for so long?" Almost gobbled up the pastries made by Uncle Qing, Liu Nianxin made a cup of tea for herself, and before that, she still didn't forget to throw it at Bai Xiaoyan. A plaintive wink. "Besides, I really miss you, the official of the Bai family~~" Liu Erlang, who had his mouth full of cakes but wanted to force a few tears out of his mouth, burped loudly as he choked.He drank the tea in a hurry, but still couldn't stop the sound of fullness rising. "So, hiccup, hiccup, Baida, hiccup, officer, you, hiccup, hiccup, really no, hiccup, understand, hiccup, no, I have to hurry, hiccup, drink water, hiccup."

Cursing inwardly that she deserved it, Bai Xiaoyan laughed unscrupulously.The book in his hand was also put down, and while biting the pomegranate fruit, he looked at Liu Nianxin's particularly depressed hiccup from the corner of his eyes.

Yesterday, she arrived at her summer resort outside the city with Uncle Qing and others. Anyway, she had nothing to do, and besides, she also needed to rest, so she drove the carriage and everyone into the villa without hesitation.

In the afternoon, Liu Nianxin stayed behind after speaking well, eating and drinking like a little tail behind Uncle Qing.

But Bai Xiaoyan ushered in someone absolutely unexpected in the main hall.

Nuo Yan respectfully served tea to a middle-aged woman and another young woman about 20 years old sitting on the guest seat, and then left.Bai Xiaoyan remained calm, with a pale but definitely elegant smile on her face, raised her hand as a invitation, and both of them picked up their teacups and took a sip at the same time.

The people who came were none other than Yecheng Chief Onmyoji Master Qin Nansheng and her legitimate daughter.

"I don't know Patriarch Qin's arrival, what can it be called?" Bai Xiaoyan smiled indifferently, and the dog-like smile really had a demure flavor.

"To be honest, the old lady came here to visit His Highness. After all, Yecheng has been corrupted by evil spirits these days, especially in the past few days. I really don't feel at ease with His Highness, old lady." , come to visit." The old woman smiled gently. "Secondly, I heard that niece Bai got sick suddenly in the first three days, so I came to have a look. Your two families are also from aristocratic families. I think that when the old Patriarch Bai was alive, he often took you by his side. I don't want to... hey." Sighed , The old woman continued: "Although you and my two families have seldom interacted with each other these years, I don't have time for the old woman, it's really..."

Although Bai Xiaoyan put on an expression of panic and dare not take it seriously, she complained terribly in her heart, rolling her eyes again and again.Please, how did we know each other!It's like we've known each other for a long time!Family? !Do we know each other well?Are you familiar?Why don't I know in which life we ​​became a family!Aren't you onmyojis the last thing you want to see are businessmen!Now let's set it up, it's almost hairy! Hey, this aunt!Also, auntie, when you are talking about being so sensational, can you ask your brat to cover up the look of disdain for a business like her that anyone with a discerning eye can see! "It should be the younger generation who came to visit you. The younger generation has been busy making a living these years, so it really shouldn't be. I hope Patriarch Qin will forgive you."

"Hey~ Aunt Qin also understands that you are busy, so she didn't come to bother you, so of course she doesn't blame you." With a gentle smile, Qin Nansheng looked at Bai Xiaoyan kindly and said. "Since you and I belong to an aristocratic family, Xiaochen doesn't need to be polite. You should call me Aunt Qin."

Bai Xiaoyan lowered her eyes, a dark look glistened in her eyes, but the corner of her mouth showed a modest smile. "Yes, Aunt Qin."

Satisfied and nodded with a smile, Qin Nansheng continued: "Your body feels better these days? Can the doctor come to see it?"

"I'm worried about Aunt Qin. My nephew's body is only caused by a sudden evil wind at night, and the wind and cold have been driven off, so it's not a serious problem." Eyelashes blinked lightly, eyes half-closed, and smiled calmly. "I've seen the doctor, and I'll be fine after taking a few patches of medicine."

"Pay more attention to your body and don't get tired." Qin Nansheng urged.

"My little nephew understands." She smiled gently, her black pupils swayed in her eyes, and the drooping eyelids made it difficult to distinguish reality from reality.

"That's good." Qin Nansheng, who looked relieved, paused for a moment, and Fang said unhurriedly: "Speaking of which, Aunt Qin also has a doubt when she comes here and wants to ask what happened, and I hope my niece can tell me." She said it, but the words inside could not be rejected by Bai Xiaoyan.

"Aunt Qin is offended when she says that. My nephew knows everything and tells me everything." Bai Xiaoyan raised her eyes, and her seemingly weak smile turned out to be a knife's edge. "I don't know what Aunt Qin asked?"

Smiling loudly, Qin Nansheng squinted his eyes, but the smile lines on the corners of his mouth outlined the aura of a hero. "Since my niece said so, Aunt Qin must have disappeared." The tea lid in his hand floated lightly on the surface of the tea, Qin Nansheng smiled and said, "I don't know if my niece knew this Highness before in the capital?"

"Why did Aunt Qin say that?" Raising her eyebrows in surprise, Bai Xiaoyan said in puzzlement, "My nephew has never stepped into the capital, and I have never met this highness before. There are contacts, but my nephew is a member of the separated family, so he is not qualified to meet this Highness at all, this kind of acquaintance is absolutely impossible."

"The Bai family's family..." Qin Nansheng's eyes flickered faintly as he paused with his fingers holding the tea cover. "When Patriarch Bai was alive, I heard her mention that the Bai family in Yecheng is a branch of the main family in the capital." Qin Nansheng took a sip of tea, smiling lovingly. "Since the niece is from a separate family, why hasn't she contacted the family all these years?"

"Aunt Qin, to be honest, my nephew is..." His expression was sad, and Bai Xiaoyan's face became paler by the candlelight. "My nephew is a retarded person. For my family, the existence of my nephew is not necessary. The Bai family is a family of Yin and Yang... My nephew is incompetent and ashamed of his ancestors." Said Then, Bai Xiaoyan's voice was slightly choked up.

"Why does my niece look down on me so much, and belittles herself so much!" Qin Nansheng scolded, Qin Nansheng kept a straight face, looked at Bai Xiaoyan with a depressed expression, and sighed: "Onmyoji is not the only way to go, my niece has made such an achievement with today's ability , the ancestors of the Bai family should be gratified, but don't be so contemptuous of yourself!"

"Aunt Qin's lesson is that my nephew understands." Bai Xiaoyan nodded weakly, even though she said so, she couldn't hide her decline.

Qin Nansheng didn't say any more, and asked some irrelevant topics, so he went to visit Chuxi on the pretext.

Sending the mother and daughter of the Qin family to the courtyard of the summer resort where Chu Xi lived, Bai Xiaoyan sat in the main hall for a while, then lay leisurely on the couch in the study room, eating cakes and reading a book. See half point.

"Hey! Ah Chen, I saw people from the Qin family coming to you just now." Pushing the door open, Liu Nianxin sat down on the chair. "Why did she come to you? It's not because of that Highness."

"Ask me if you guessed it." She rolled her eyes, and Bai Xiaoyan let out a sleepy breath.

"This old thing is a well-known fox. Did she ask you something?" Liu Nianxin held a pastry in his mouth and brewed tea in his right hand.

"I did." She stretched lazily, and Bai Xiaoyan narrowed her eyes slightly. "Of course it's the elders. If she wants to ask, I will tell her exactly."

She really told the truth, if Qin Nansheng wanted to think too much, she couldn't stop her~~~

"Hey! Let me say, why do I think your expression is wrong?" Raising her eyebrows, Liu Nianxin looked at Bai Xiaoyan suspiciously.

"Is there? I have a serious expression." Shrugging her shoulders, Bai Xiaoyan smiled and showed her eight teeth.

"No, no, it's even more wrong for you to do this!" After slapping her hands, Liu Nianxin moved to Bai Xiaoyan's side with a curious expression on her face. "Sister, tell me, tell me, what did you tell her?"

"Go away." Bai Xiaoyan's face was calm, almost paralyzed.

"Oh, it's so annoying, Chenchen, just tell me~~~~"

. . . . . .

"Mother, this Highness really doesn't know what to do, what benefits can she get from that Bai Xiaochen!" The young woman sat in the carriage displeasedly, looking at her mother who was drinking tea. "Also, mother, it's true, then Bai Xiaochen is a retarded person, why are you being polite to her!"

"Nonsense! There are some things you can say too much! If there are other people around now, your sentence of 'I don't know what to do' will cause so much trouble for the Qin family!" Qin Nansheng glared at the other party with a soft drink.

"Isn't there no one else?" The girl murmured softly.

"As for Bai Xiaochen, I didn't expect her to be a retarded person." Qin Nansheng narrowed her eyes slightly. "It's okay for Bai Xiaochen to wait for the merchant's servant to be hypocritical. The main reason is to meet the highness of the capital through her. However, I didn't expect to get unexpected news."

"Mom, what's the news?" the girl asked curiously.

"Bai Xiaochen has no ability, but the family behind her may have secretly arranged it."
