Xiao Muqing looked at Bai Ling in surprise, as if she didn't expect Bai Ling to say such a thing.
But in Xiao Muqing's opinion, Bai Ling's words of comfort were no different from hitting her in the face.
The dignified legitimate daughter of the Xiao family had to marry far away or at a young age, and even the marriage was arranged in such a hasty manner, which was simply an insult to her.
"With your background in the Bai family, if you can marry into such a family, it is indeed the good intentions of your parents." Xiao Muqing sneered, more at herself.
Hearing this, Bai Ling didn't feel the need to continue the conversation.
There was nothing left to say between them.
After giving Xiao Muqing a faint look, Bai Ling stood up and said, "Let's just say goodbye. It's too false to say blessings, but I won't be so vicious as to curse you. I hope we'll never see each other again."
.”
This is Bai Ling's innermost thoughts, and now there is no need to meet again.
"Bai Ling, don't be too proud. Even if you marry young, you will live a life of prosperity and wealth. As long as I am the daughter of the Xiao family, no one in my husband's family will dare to despise me or make things difficult for me. But what about you?
Bai Ling, do you really think you can marry Shangguan's brother? Even if you can really marry into the Han Dynasty palace, you will not be able to integrate into the aristocratic circles of the capital in the future, and you will just wait to be stepped on all your life!"
Speaking of Shangguan Yu, Xiao Muqing's heart couldn't help but get excited.
Xiao Muqing hated everyone and never thought that she had missed out, it was just her bad luck.
But Xiao Muqing didn't want to hate Shangguan Yu.
That was when she was alone and helpless, and the only sunshine that could be injected into her life had already integrated into her bones.
Bai Ling paused for a moment, then tilted his head and said, "Whether I will marry Shangguan Yu or not, I don't have to worry about it for Miss Xiao. The wedding is coming soon, so Miss Xiao should focus on getting married. After all, Miss Xiao is not me, no matter what
You can live a good life anywhere, but you won’t be able to live without a dowry, right?”
"Bai Ling!" Xiao Muqing's eyes were red and she glared at Bai Ling angrily.
"Now that we know that her husband's family is in decline, Miss Xiao should think about how to live in the future. It is difficult to transition from luxury to frugality. If Miss Xiao spends all her dowry too early, her future life will definitely be difficult." Bai Ling looked at her.
He said calmly: "In view of the friendship we have known each other for many years, this is the last advice I give to Miss Xiao."
Xiao Muqing was so angry that she smashed the tea cup in her hand and wanted to rush forward and tear Bai Ling to pieces.
But Xiao Muqing knew that if she really did that, her end would only be worse.
And she... wants to live.
As early as when Xiao Muqing took action again and again, Bai Ling had looked down on the friendship between them. Naturally, he would not get angry, but he would inevitably feel a little uncomfortable.
"It's all Shangguan Yu's fault for causing trouble, but he plotted against me." Bai Ling complained, then put the matter down and told the coachman: "Go to the Yang Mansion."
After Xiao Muqing's marriage was finalized, as compensation, the Xiao family not only gave some valuables to sisters Bai Ling and Baicao, but also gave the shop where Xiao Muqing and Baicao collaborated to Baicao free of charge.
In addition to the originally signed agreement, there is also the store contract.
Baicao has also been taking care of the shop these days. He used to be in charge of the workshop, but suddenly he has to take over the shop, which is inevitably a bit hectic.
Baicao only went out yesterday when Bai Ling invited her.
Xiao Mu also offered a jade shop in his capital to Bai Ling, but Bai Ling rejected it.
Since this matter needs to be concealed, no big action can be taken, otherwise people outside will definitely know about it.
Furthermore, Bai Ling's current strength is enough to open a medicine shop. That's because his medical skills are recognized by the world.
But the jade business has never been easy, so there won't be many people to support Bai Ling.
"How did the second sister know that I didn't go to the shop today?" Baicao knew that Bai Ling was coming, so she waited outside the courtyard of the inner house.
I have been busy taking over the shop these past few days. People from the Xiao family cannot use Baicao, but it is not convenient for all the shop assistants to quit, which is a headache.
But in order to stabilize the customer base, Baicao cannot fire everyone now. Recruiting new people will also require training for a period of time, which will delay a lot of business.
The two sisters held hands and walked toward the inner courtyard while talking.
"I just went to put on Miss Xiao's makeup. I thought there was nothing to do today, so I came over to see the eldest sister." Bai Ling didn't hide it, "Fortunately, the eldest sister didn't go to the shop, otherwise I would have been in vain.
"
"You are too bold. You know that Xiao Muqing has bad thoughts about you, but you still dare to go there?" Baicao suddenly became serious and wanted to teach Bai Ling a lesson.
"Don't worry, eldest sister, even if Xiao Muqing wants to commit suicide, the Xiao family will not allow it." Bai Ling smiled lightly.
The Xiao family is a well-established family, but they will not easily offend important officials in the court.
The Xiao family cannot ignore Shangguan Yu's pressure, unless they are willing to make things worse and cause the Xiao family to be in turmoil.
"I know I can't tell you, it's better if you know it yourself." Bai Cao said, already holding Bai Ling's hand into the flower hall, "We all got to know each other. Although I don't want to go there, we still have a good relationship on face.
You have to make it for others to see. I’ll ask someone to give you a make-up gift later, but I don’t want to talk to Xiao Muqing anymore.”
In Baicao's yard, most of the servants she served were her dowry.
At least the people who can get close are all the servants doing the dowry, so you don't have to be too cautious when speaking.
Seeing that Baicao's complexion was better than yesterday, Bai Ling asked her to stretch out her arm and checked her lower pulse.
"Sister, you still need to pay more attention to rest. No matter how good the tonic is, it is better to rest more, eat more and stay in a good mood." Bai Ling warned.
"You are really worried about your life. Could it be that Shangguan left and you found it boring, so you came to me? I haven't seen you thinking about me so much before. It turns out that my daughter is an extrovert." Baicao joked.
road.
"It's a little worse than the eldest sister. After all, although I am outgoing, I am not married yet. The eldest sister said that I am worried about my life. I also admit that as soon as the eldest brother-in-law comes back, the eldest sister will have no time to talk to me.
"Bai Ling didn't defend himself, he just returned Bai Cao's words.
Feigning anger, Baicao glared at Bai Ling, and Bai Cao smiled and said, "Yeah, I can't help you. Now that you're here, let's eat here at noon. Your brother-in-law has something to do today and won't be back for lunch."
"Then I have to hope that my brother-in-law will be away from home often, otherwise it will be difficult for my eldest sister to have a meal with me." Bai Ling complained, occasionally acting like a child in front of Baicao.
"You're talking nonsense again, be careful I'll sew your mouth shut." Staring at Bai Ling, Baicao couldn't help but blush.
"The eldest sister's face is like a peach blossom. She is really good-looking. No wonder my brother-in-law won't marry you unless you marry him. He has a sharp eye and knows the pearls!"
Seeing Baicao pretending to hit her, Bai Ling quickly held her arm.
Glancing at the girl standing at the door, Bai Ling lowered his voice and asked: "Have you taken the medicine I prepared for your eldest sister on time? Your current body is not suitable for pregnancy. If you wait a little longer, it will be good for both adults and children.
.”
"Well, eldest sister will not forget it." Bai Cao's smile faded and she caressed her flat belly.
The failure to save the child in the Wang family was due to cowardice.
The child she couldn't keep in the Yang family was because of her tolerance.
Bai Ling didn't mean to make Rebaicao sad, but he couldn't help but remind him of such a life-threatening matter.
"Sister, don't be sad. In one year at most, I will definitely take care of your body so that you can give me some plump nephews and pink nieces." Bai Ling said with a wink. (To be continued)
