C41 Where do we not meet in life

looked at Song Yue strangely. Previously, he would never believe that there was actually such a simple man among those rich and powerful families in the capital. However, after getting along with them for a few days, he was sure that Song Yue did not understand the relationship between men and women.

Song Cheng laughed, "I say, can you stop saying things without saying them? If you don't grab the chance now, you might not be able to see Bai Xian again when you return to the capital."

Song Yue had never liked girls before, he did not know what it meant to like girls. Seeing Song Cheng laughing at him, he did not want to ask Song Cheng this question: "Don't just laugh at me, think about how we should go back."

Song Cheng was still the same sloppy and careless, no one could see the bitterness in his heart, "Let's see then."

In his 20 years of life, he had never felt that his life was extremely difficult. Even when he went to the battlefield to kill his enemies, his mother would always cry miserably, worried that he would be injured, worried that he would lose his life.

But Song Yue himself was very calm, killing the enemy was his responsibility as the successor to the State Duke’s Mansion, it was also to let the emperor be at ease, and a good thing to protect the safety of the citizens. Even when he was betrayed and in danger, Song Yue did not complain too much.

However, ever since they escaped the capital with Song Cheng, the two of them no longer possessed prominent statuses. Instead, they had experienced the happiness of a normal family, such as Bai Xian's family.

Song Yue had never experienced this kind of bland happiness before. Even amongst the officials and nobles in the capital, the State Duke’s Mansion was considered to be one of the few.

Right now, they did not know that there was a saying, "A man is not as good as the heavens". No matter how meticulous a plan was, it would produce a completely different effect due to the change of time.

After Bai Xian sent the Song brothers off, he went to Bai Xiu's room. Bai’s mother was sitting on the side of his bed wiping off his son's sweat, watching his mother's back.

She wanted to continue managing the Bai Yue Stall, and when she was rich, she would open a branch of the Bai Yue Stall in the county. That way, they could be together again.

Bai’s mother sensed that someone was staring at him, and turned to see Bai Xian walking towards her: "Xian Er, are you hungry?"

Bai Xian held onto Bai’s mother's arm, pretending to be interested: "Mother only likes my brother, but not Xian Er." The moment the words left his mouth, the small unnaturalness that was in Bai Xian's heart immediately disappeared. In the modern world, ever since she could remember, her mother had forbade Bai Xian from acting like a spoiled child.

Bai’s mother touched Bai Xian's forehead intimately, his face revealed a happy smile: "You, you're already so old yet you're still jealous of my little brother."

When she saw the love in Bai’s mother's eyes, Bai Xian's eyes reddened, and her tears almost flowed out. There were many times that she had begged White Doctor for a little care and affection, and all she received was the merciless ridicule and double the learning task of the White Doctor. She never thought that here, she would instead obtain the thing she longed for the most.

Bai’s mother saw that Bai Xian's expression was not right, and thought that Da Niu's rumors about fighting had scared his daughter, so he anxiously took out his handkerchief and wiped Bai Xian's tears, "Xian Er, don't be afraid, even if we are going to fight, Mother will protect you, okay?"

Bai’s mother still had something that she didn't say in her heart. She looked at her daughter's jade-like face and thought to herself, "Since mother can bring you out of the capital, she can definitely take you somewhere else."

Bai Xian sobbed for a while and recovered her composure. At this moment, she felt a little embarrassed facing Bai’s mother who was worried about her, "Mother, I will protect you and my brother too."

Bai Xian was really tired, and had been sleeping soundly. Bai Xian made two bowls of hot soup, Bai’s mother drank half of it and went to rest, leaving Bai Xian to secretly plan out the next step.

But on the morning of the second day, Bai Xian came to Bai Yue Stall to find out that the situation was far from being as optimistic as he had imagined, because the recent dishes were fresh vegetables sent over from his own family's villa. It had been a long time since Bai Xian had gone to the morning market, so she wanted to discuss the matter of ordering pork with Hu Butcher.

The weather was good yesterday, the autumn air was bright and clear, the blue sky was like a bath, but in the middle of the night, a strong wind blew, Bai Xian listened to the whistling wind and did not sleep well the whole night.

As Bai Xian walked, he realized that there were very few vendors in the morning market. The originally bustling morning market only had a few people selling things this morning.

Walking into the meat shop, he saw Hu Butcher slicing the meat with all his might, causing the uneasy feeling in Bai Xian's heart to dissipate slightly. "Uncle Hu, I'll find you to order some meat."

Hearing Bai Xian's voice, Hu Butcher turned around in pleasant surprise. "Bai Xian, you're finally here."

Bai Xian was a little confused. He had always paid for the meat he ordered from the Hu Butcher in advance, but he had never owed the meat to anyone before.

Hu Butcher saw the surprise on Bai Xian's face and explained, "Bai Xian, let me tell you, recently there was a rumor spreading around that someone from the Chu is coming to our Two Li Stall. Many people are preparing to seek help from their relatives, and recently there has been almost no one here to buy meat."

Bai Xian's mind immediately tensed up, she had only rested for two days, and the news had already spread like wildfire throughout the entire town. It seemed that she had already planned ahead of time: "Uncle Hu, don't worry too much, right now everyone says that they don't know whether the news is real or not. If you are worried, then rest at home with Lady Hu for a few days."

However, Mistress Hu was just pregnant, if there really was a war, he wanted to bring her to a safe place, "I had thought that you would know more, after all, there are many rich families eating in Bai Yue Stall.

Bai Xian explained: "Because my brother has been in school for the past few days, and the Bai Yue Stall has not been open for a while. Today, the Bai Yue Stall has returned to normal, the moment I find out what kind of news, I will immediately tell you."

This was exactly what Hu Butcher was waiting for. Bai Xian was like a lucky star in his family, hoping that this time Bai Xian would give him a perfect answer.

Bai Xian looked throughout the journey and discovered that there were many stores that were closed, making the Great Street seem exceptionally desolate. The worry in her heart continued to grow, could it be that the war was real?

Bai Xian did not have time to think further. After arriving at Bai Yue Stall, she quickly went to prepare the ingredients.

was also here to work today. Seeing the High Scholar Lin sitting beside him, his eyes darkened.

High Scholar Lin also recognized Song Yue. Interesting, so it turns out that the people I met that day were all from Bai Yue Stall.
