White Hedge Dream

Chapter 206 Greetings

The afterglow of the setting sun dissipated, and although the night had not yet begun, Zhou Jingyun lit the indoor lights in advance.

Bai Li had just washed up and was arranging his hair in front of the mirror. The maid brought in the water and mirror for washing. Zhou Jingyun was about to go out to buy new ones, but Bai Li stopped him: "I don't see outsiders."

So you can do whatever you want in front of him, one of your own? Zhou Jingyun touched his nose and stopped insisting.

In fact, he saw her sleeping before and was thinking about preparing the washing utensils, but he didn't expect that he himself fell asleep before finishing the bowl of tea.

Why did he fall asleep too? He even pulled a corner of the quilt from the white fence and squeezed next to her because of the cold.

Fortunately, there is a small tea table in the way, otherwise I don't know how to be rude.

Bai Li sat aside and suddenly smiled.

Zhou Jingyun turned to look at her: "What's wrong?"

Bai Li pointed at the lamp: "I lit the lamp when I first came here, and now I light the lamp when I wake up. It doesn't seem to have changed."

But it has actually been a day, is it like a dream? Many times he would feel like this. When he opened his eyes, he felt that she was still sitting at the desk, raising her head and saying to him, "Your Majesty, you are back."

Zhou Jingyun smiled: "Of course there are changes, for example, now there is breakfast that I bought." He pointed to the table on Arhat's bed, "Although breakfast has become dinner."

Bai Li was amused.

"Come on, come and eat." Zhou Jingyun said with a smile.

Bai Li stood up and came over, sitting opposite him. Zhou Jingyun handed her the bowl and chopsticks, as before: "Try this."

Bai Li said with great interest: "I have never eaten this before. Hey, I can walk around freely these days and often eat and drink on the street."

Zhou Jingyun suddenly said: "That's it. No wonder Chunyue and the others saw you."

Bai Li hurriedly explained: "I was not eating or drinking at that time, but staring at Zhang Ze. I happened to meet them, so I said hello to them." Seeing Zhou Jingyun smile, "I want to say hello to you too."

Zhou Jingyun looked at her and smiled: "I got it, the apricot blossoms are very beautiful." After hesitating, he said, "Later I also went to Dongshi, thinking... I thought maybe something happened to you..."

He actually came to see her specially. Bai Li smiled with crooked eyes and snorted: "It's all Zhang Ze's fault for doing disgusting things. I kept an eye on him, otherwise I would have met you."

That's it, Zhou Jingyun said with a smile: "But we still met."

Yes, Bai Li also smiled, and he was so helpful.

"Actually, this is not the first time I met you." She said, "Before..."

Pausing at this point, when I met him earlier, bad things were said about him on the street, so let’s not mention it.

"What happened before?" Zhou Jingyun asked, "When?" Then he regretted, "I really didn't recognize you."

"No, you will definitely recognize me when you see me." Bai Li said hurriedly. Thinking of being in the palace, he couldn't help but be curious, "Yes, how could you recognize me at a glance?"

She didn't even speak, but as soon as she turned around and faced him, he called out her name.

Zhou Jingyun said: "You forgot, I have read your arrest document."

"But that's the painting of my sister." Bai Li looked at him and asked, "Am I so similar to my sister?"

She said she was somewhat similar to her sister, but was she that similar? Like Zhou Jingyun recognized her as Bai Li at a glance? During these days, I have seen Bai Ying a lot, so...

"Did Bai Ying threaten you? Are you forced to see her all the time?"

Zhou Jingyun suddenly felt that this question was not easy to answer, and subconsciously said: "So many questions, one by one, where did you meet me before?"

Bai Li pointed at the dish in front of him: "I'll try this."

…

….

Listening to the almost continuous chatter in the room, the maid Xu Po held the dishes in her hand and said ouch twice: "The young master and the young lady are talking really lively. I will go and give them two more dishes."

Huang Ru, who was warming goat milk in front of the stove, stood up and took the dish from her hand and said, "No, let them talk. They don't care what they eat."

Mrs. Xu smiled and wiped her hands on the towel beside her: "Okay, okay, young people don't need me, an old woman, to take care of them. I'll go see our little girl."

…

…

The night breeze rushed in through the open window, and the candlelight in the corridor and indoors danced wildly.

Mrs. Dongyang Hou looked at the clepsydra, frowned and asked, "You haven't come back yet?"

Mother Xu looked at the maids serving dishes and responded: "I have something to do. The guards came back in the morning and said that they may not be finished yet."

"What's such a big deal?" Mrs. Dongyang Hou snorted coldly, "You don't even care about keeping vigil for the queen?"

The madam was angry at the prince again. Mother Xu suppressed her laughter and helped her sit down in front of the dinner table: "Concubine Bai gave birth to a prince, and the queen will move her spirit to the imperial mausoleum in the next day. The palace is also very busy today. , it would be better for the prince to avoid it.”

Mentioning Concubine Bai, Mrs. Dongyang Hou was a little lost in thought: "For such a happy event as the birth of a prince, Concubine Bai will be rewarded, right?"

Mother Xu nodded: "Yes, your majesty finally has a prince, and he will have a heir." She lowered her voice at this point, "This concubine Bai is really lucky. The queen is no longer here. In the future, if the prince becomes the prince, she will also be the queen." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Mrs. Dongyang Hou shed tears suddenly.

Xu's mother was startled: "Madam, what are you..." What's wrong?

Crying for the Queen?

Not that much...

That Concubine Bai was so lucky, and that Concubine Bai's sister was really unlucky. Mrs. Dongyang Hou raised her hand to wipe away her tears. If she had waited a little longer, Concubine Bai would have given birth to a prince, not to mention whether she would be crowned queen or not, at least the Bai family would be guilty. If she can be forgiven, then Baili can live peacefully.

It's all Zhou Jingyun's fault.

Mrs. Dongyang Hou felt cold in her heart.

"Close the door." She pointed outside and shouted, "If Zhou Jingyun doesn't come back so late, he's not allowed in!"

Where did this evil spirit come from? Mother Xu hurriedly comforted her and responded, urging the maids to tell the door, and then asked people to go to the courtyard to ask.

"Why hasn't the prince come back yet? Where are you going this late at night?"

The Dongyang Marquis Mansion has no rules about purchasing an outhouse in the capital.

Nowadays, during the Queen's mourning period, banquets and banquets are prohibited, and even Sanqufang has been stopped.

How strange.

The prince has never stayed out at night without saying goodbye. This is the behavior of other people's libertines.

…..

…..

The sound of a dusk drum was heard. The baby lying on the Arhat's bed seemed to be frightened and twisted a few times. Bai Li was busy patting it gently.

Halfway through the meal, or in the middle of the conversation, a baby's cry came from outside. Bai Li remembered that there was another child. He stopped talking and asked Zhou Jingyun to take the child over and take a look.

Zhou Jingyun went over and after Mrs. Zhuang had finished feeding the child, he took it over and showed it to Bai Li.

"After a day, I feel a little older." Bai Li looked at the child and said to Zhou Jingyun.

Zhou Jingyun laughed: "How can it be so fast?"

"It looks better than when I brought it out from the palace." Bai Li said, gently poking the baby's face.

Zhou Jingyun said: "When he was born, he was not washed and rushed to deal with it. Mrs. Zhuang took good care of him last night and just drank goat's milk. The child naturally became energetic."

Mrs. Zhuang looked after her carefully, and Bai Li snorted: "She is very good at coaxing children."

I don’t know whether he was talking about coaxing her child back then or this baby now. Zhou Jingyun knew Bai Li’s knot. Although Zhuang Feizi and his wife didn’t have any ulterior motives when they first met Bai Li, the final result was this. Dialogue It is indeed difficult to accept this.

He did not continue to mention Mrs. Zhuang.

"I'll keep an eye on this place. I'm mainly responsible for taking care of the children, so don't worry." He said.

As soon as the words fell, the baby lying on the bed twisted a few times, clenched his fists, and began to cry.

The two were startled.

Bai Li immediately smiled again, looked at him and raised his eyebrows: "Okay, you can take care of the child."

Zhou Jingyun held back his laughter and picked up the baby. Although he had held it all night last night, it was still a little stiff when he held it. He felt that the baby was softer. He did not dare to use force or not to use force. However, Bai Li watched from the side. Look, he still makes a relaxed and indifferent gesture.

But the child didn't stop crying, and the crying became louder and louder.

Bai Li didn't care about watching the fun anymore and stretched out his hand: "I'll give it a try."

Zhou Jingyun handed the child to her, and Bai Li held it and rocked it around, but it was still useless.

"Why does she cry so much?" she couldn't help but say.

Zhou Jingyun stretched out his hand to take it: "I'll come, I'll come. Children are like this..."

Mrs. Zhuang's soft voice came from outside the door: "Maybe she peed. Take her out and let me change her diaper."

Zhou Jingyun looked at Bai Li, who curled his lips and motioned for him to send him out.

The crying of the baby outside soon stopped.

Bai Li curled his lips again.

Zhou Jingyun said with a smile: "We are just starting to take care of children. It will be fine once we get familiar with it." He glanced at the sky, listened to the evening drum again, and hesitated, "Where do you live now? The curfew is coming soon, I'm afraid It’s not convenient to move around.”

Only now did Bai Li notice the color of the sky.

"It's too late to go back tonight, the ship has already left," she said.

Boat? Zhou Jingyun looked at her with questioning eyes.

They talked a lot just now, but they didn't seem to say anything. There were many things that they hadn't had time to say yet.

It's only been a month since they separated, and it feels like there's so much to say.

Bai Li smiled: "I live in a building on a boat, the same one in Shangguan Yue."

Shangguan Yue, Zhou Jingyun was a little surprised.

We didn’t even finish the greetings. The two of them talked a lot haha
