Chapter 872: God did it on purpose

Chapter 872 God did it on purpose

Probably because they felt that the atmosphere between the two people talking here was pleasant, the two little guys Bai Zhiyi and Bai Yuling also smiled at the couple.

 Bai Shitang and Su Mulan hugged each other and kissed each other on the cheek.

The end of summer and the arrival of autumn.

The scientific examination will be held in August and the results will be released in September.

Bai Yonghe and Bai Midou are both on the list.

Having passed the subject examination, as a scholar, you can be considered qualified to take the examination in the autumn of next year, and you can take the provincial examination.

The two of them were happy, but they began to prepare for the competition in the autumn of the next year, and studied harder than before.

Bai Lixia has not been very happy these days.

Jiang Huanrun said before that he would come back after the exam in August, but now it is late autumn, but there is still no sign of anyone.

Bai Lixia even went to the Jiang family's house in the west, but she didn't see a trace of Jiang Huanrun, so she had to ask the concierge to see if she could get some information.

The concierge knew Bai Lixia, and he told the truth. The Jiang family had gone to live in the provincial capital as early as spring, and they didn't know when they would come back.

After receiving such an answer, the gloom on Bai Lixia's face became heavier, and she held the peace and blessing in her hands tightly.

October has arrived in a blink of an eye, at the end of autumn and the beginning of winter. When I wake up in the morning, I can see a thick layer of frost on the ground.

Bai Lixia has been very busy these days.

The tea garden has just been taken over, and many things have not yet been settled. Bai Shitang has been guarding the tea garden every day these days, so Bai Lixia is taking care of almost all the affairs of several shops in the county.

In autumn, the land purchased by the family was divided among several siblings, and each of them was given a hundred acres of fertile land.

But Bai Shuiliu, Bai Bamboo Leaf and Bai Mi Dou thought that they were not good at taking care of their fields, so they entrusted all this to Bai Lixia.

Bai Lixia felt that her sisters and brothers also had a lot of trust in her, so she patted her chest and assured her that they would definitely help her do a good job.

Those fields are now handed over to Zhuangzi for management. Zhuangzi also sent the rent collected this autumn to the county seat, converted it into money, and gave it to Bai Lixia.

These things were originally handled by Zhuangzi's head of the village, but Bai Lixia took over these matters in the first year and wanted to take a look at Zhuangzi to see how the big and small affairs were managed in Zhuangzi.

The family business is getting bigger and bigger, and there will definitely be more than one farm in the future. I am familiar with all the affairs there, so I can make preparations early.

For convenience, Bai Lixia brought two young men and a maid to accompany him.

The carriage went all the way to the farm.

It was freezing outside, but there was a strong warmth inside the carriage. The carriage was swaying, which made Bai Lixia feel sleepy. She just leaned on a soft pillow, covered with a small blanket and closed her eyes to rest.

The carriage suddenly stopped.

Bai Lixia also suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the maid Xiaoyun beside her, "Why did you stop?"

"My maid, go take a look." Xiaoyun opened the curtain and went down.

After a while, he got on the carriage again and asked in a low voice, "I met a scholar on the road. He said that on the way back home, his money was stolen, so he had to walk back to the county town. Now the soles of his shoes are worn out and he really can't walk. When he saw our carriage, he asked if we could give him a ride on the way."

"We are going to the farm now. Since he is going back to the county town, he may be going in the opposite direction." Bai Lixia paused and said, "Let's ask him if he is in a hurry. If he is not in a hurry, You can come with us to Zhuangzi and take him back to the county town when I'm done."

Since I am a scholar, I am either studying or rushing for exams. It is probably not easy to be away from home. And when Bai Lixia heard that he was a scholar, he thought of Jiang Huanrun, whom he had not heard from for a long time, and his heart felt a little softer.

Xiaoyun nodded in agreement, and then spoke to the scholar outside whose clothes were stained and his hair was a little messy.

When the scholar saw that the other party was willing to take him to the county seat, even though he had to go to the farm, he nodded hurriedly, "Thank you, thank you so much for making it so convenient."

"My lady is kind-hearted, so you don't have to be so polite." Xiaoyun said, "It's just that there are differences between men and women, so it's inconvenient. I'm afraid I have to bother you and sit in the same place as the coachman."

“It’s okay, I feel guilty for bothering you, sir, so I don’t dare to bother you any more.” The scholar bowed respectfully and thanked you profusely.

Xiao Yun was so lucky that she asked the coachman to take care of the frail scholar later. Then she got on the carriage first and went to wait on her young lady.

The scholar and the coachman were sitting together. After hesitating for a moment, he cupped his hands into the carriage through the curtain and said, "Thank you, young lady, for such a kindness. I will definitely thank you again when I return home..."

"This scholar is really very polite." When Xiaoyun heard the scholar's words, she pursed her lips and smiled, but when she saw the shocked Bai Lixia next to her, she was startled, "Miss..."

Bai Lixia bit her lip, and with trembling fingers, she opened the curtain at the front of the carriage.

While the scholar outside was holding up his hands and saying thank you, the curtain was suddenly opened. He was startled and almost swallowed the unfinished words.

When he saw the face of the person in front of him clearly, he was even more stunned, and then his face changed drastically.

Bai Lixia's eye circles suddenly turned red, and it took a long time before she trembled her lips and uttered a sentence, "You are lying..."

Mingming said that after passing the examination, he would come back to see her.

"I..." Jiang Huanrun was at a loss for words. First he shook his head like a rattle, feeling something was wrong. Then he nodded mysteriously. Then he felt something was wrong, so he simply lowered his head and made no further movements.

His face was full of embarrassment, and Jiang Huanrun pinched his fingers until they turned white.

This God probably really did this on purpose.

Every time he meets Bai Lixia when he is most embarrassed, letting the people he likes see his most embarrassing side.

Seeing him like this, Bai Lixia pursed her lips, sniffed, pushed back the fog in her eyes, and moved the soft pillow she was leaning on aside.

“It’s cold outside, come in and sit.”

“Xiaoyun, pour me a cup of hot tea.”

Xiaoyun only served Bai Lixia in the middle of this year and didn't know Jiang Huanrun. But since her lady ordered so and it looked like they had known each other for a long time, she invited Jiang Huanrun to sit in the carriage and gave him a cup of tea. A cup of hot tea.

Jiang Huanrun took the tea, held it in both hands, and took a sip after a long time.

Bai Lixia opened the curtain of the window and ordered the boy who was following him on horseback outside, "Go to Zhuangzi and tell the head of the village that I have something to do today. I won't go to Zhuangzi. I won't bother you again in two days."

Then he ordered the driver, "Go back to the county town."

After receiving the order, a boy went to Zhuangzi to bring the message, while the rest followed Bai Lixia to the county seat.

Arrived in the county town, Bai Lixia first took Jiang Huanrun to find an inn to stay, and then went to Linglong Pavilion to find a set of clothes and shoes that he could wear.
