"Isn't Pang Yang the stupid guard beside the county lord now?"
"Yes, that's him, but his stupidity is not natural. He developed a fever after being stabbed three times. The county leader was only three years old at that time and didn't know anything. So when he survived for two days by himself, , just like it is now. Later, he came back with the county lord."
"I just said that the county master treats this guard differently, so it turns out that there is such a thing."
"Of course it's different. He's a lifesaver! But it's also because of the county lord's matter that the government hired someone to let the eldest and second young masters practice martial arts with them. They also arranged for long-term guards to accompany them."
"What about the bandits? Aunt Zhang disappeared inexplicably. The bandits can't be still alive, right?! And the housekeeper?"
"Of course they were suppressed, but I heard that the bandits all died while in prison. Some people speculated that it was the old lady who ordered them to do it. She was afraid that in the future, something bad would be said about this group of people and make it difficult for the county magistrate to be a good person. .
The housekeeper was also missing for some reason, and no one in the house knew how the person died or where the body was.
Just like Aunt Zhang, she suddenly disappeared one day, and there was no intention of panicking to find anyone in the house.
There is also news that the old lady also wanted to kill Pang Yang at first, fearing that he would accidentally let out the news that the county lord was taken away, but later she found out that Pang Yang was stupid and let her go. "
"Does the county master know about this?"
"Of course I don't know. Who dares to tell the county boss about this behind the old lady's back?"
"and after?"
"...I heard from others that the county master didn't trust the people around him from then on. If the madam wanted to transfer the people around the county master, the county master would never ask to keep people, and would just watch them being taken away one by one. Changed."
"ah--?"
"That's what I heard. I can't tell you how. It may just be a coincidence in the timing."
Pang Yan, who was outside the kitchen, felt a chill in her heart.
Not a coincidence.
Now there is only one Yu Die who stays with the county leader most of the time.
That's because Yu Die is also not clear-headed. He doesn't even serve the county lord often and only guards gold and silver. The county master really doesn't trust these slaves anymore, so no matter who the county master is around, he won't have any idea.
This may be why the county boss doesn't care about what they say, only what they do.
Pang Yan had some thoughts in her mind, and quickly gathered her thoughts, making a noise before slowly entering the kitchen, "The county master will have breakfast in the house."
The little maid in the kitchen was obviously startled, but when she saw Pang Yan's unaware face, she quickly responded: "Yes."
In Kyoto, a county magistrate is nothing, but in Fengzhou, it is a fragrant steamed bun, so all the ladies come here at the right time without being rude.
After finishing breakfast, Bai Guo read for a while and was told that more than 20 ladies in front of her had come, and more than a dozen adults of all kinds had come.
Ging Guo asked Pang Yan to change her clothes, style her hair, put on noble clothes, put on makeup, and put on a veil.
After all this fuss, by the time we arrived in the courtyard, almost everyone had arrived.
Bai Yujing led Bai Guo to appear in front of his colleagues. Many people saluted Bai Guo and congratulated him on his birthday. At a glance, Bai Guo turned out to have more people than Bai Yujing came to celebrate his birthday.
At this time, a man was brought in by the maid again. He looked about forty years old. He was very well-dressed but not rich. His brows showed the calmness of having been in a position for a long time, and he had a vague aura of killing on the battlefield. No one dares to look down upon him.
"I've met the Grand Governor."
Someone has already saluted.
Bai Guo looked over and saw that this man was not strong. Standing next to these civil servants, there was no difference other than his murderous aura.
Bai Guo then leaned down and saluted, "Grand Governor."
Her title is one level higher than that of the Grand Governor, but the military power of Fengzhou is in this person's hands. It can be said that he is the one with the real power. There is no other title.
The people above dare to show off in front of this person.
Mo Xian returned the gift to Ging Guo, "Kangle County Lord."
Bai Guo smiled lightly and gestured to Mo Pian: "Captain, please take a seat."
Mo Xian nodded and sat on the upper seat.
Bai Guo then turned to everyone present and said, "All of you are colleagues of my second uncle. Today I will let my second uncle continue to entertain all of you. I also ask for your forgiveness for my poor hospitality."
Generally, ladies come to attend a woman's birthday, but there are not so many rules in Fengzhou. Since Bai Yujing is accompanying her, all the officials also come.
What surprised them was that the Governor was actually willing to come to such a banquet with women.
It was lively when Bai Guo returned to the ladies' table. He Mei also sent invitations to many girls of the same age as Bai Guo, not only to prevent Bai Guo from being bored, but also to show Bai Minghong a good home for his daughter.
The first thing to start was the shadow puppet show. Everyone sat on rows of chairs and stared at the performance on the stage.
Girls all like surprising things, but this one made everyone in the audience gasp in amazement.
When we arrived at the drama, the girls below were already discussing quietly with the girls next to them, and they were even more shocked by the actions on the stage and kept exclaiming.
Even Bai Guo couldn't take his eyes off it. He didn't even feel the hand being grabbed by the nervous girl beside him. When the drama ended, Bai Guo realized that the back of his hand was pinched red.
The girl sitting next to her also noticed it, and her face turned red with embarrassment. She quickly stood up and bowed to Bai Guofu to apologize and said, "My lord, please forgive me. This little girl's unintentional act is really..." The lady on the scene It's amazing.
A "little girl" is said to be extremely gentle and virtuous.
Ging Guo looked at the girl carefully.
She is about 18 years old, and the shyness on her face makes her fair as jade, gentle and pleasant, and all the clothes on her body are made with great care.
This is the noble girl who has been raised with such painstaking efforts.
No family with a big business and a wealthy family would be able to raise such a refined woman.
"No problem." Bai Guo responded.
Women like this are the favorites of every wife who has sons. It's hard to say that her second aunt doesn't like her.
"Sister County Lord, how about I dance for you?"
A woman suddenly inserted herself between the two of them. Bai Guo looked over and saw a little girl who was obviously crazy about playing. Both of her eyes were shining with excitement. She looked about ten years old. It was appropriate to call her sister.
"Okay." Bai Guo responded, and all the drama on the stage stopped.
The little girl came on stage happily, but a woman behind gave her a vicious look.
It looks like he is her child.
Noticing the look in Bai Guo's eyes, the woman hurriedly bowed to Bai Guo and said, "My lord, please forgive me. It's the common women who pamper her too much, which is why she is so presumptuous."
Bai Guo chuckled lightly and said, "She is quite lively and cute."
The little girl on the stage didn't care about what was going on below. As soon as a very classical dance she had just learned started, many girls with itchy hands came to play the piano to accompany it.
The little girl on the stage was even happier. Her movements on the stage were soft and light, and every movement was performed extremely beautifully.
The music of the piano continued under the stage, and the little girl on the stage jumped and giggled. It was a cheerful sound without any worries, just laughing when she wanted to.
Many women also looked over, with envy, praise, and gentleness. ..
More women below the stage played musical instruments and played along. The little girl on the stage smiled even more cheerfully, but it did not affect her every move and dance at all.
There were many girls laughing under the stage, either covering their mouths with a handkerchief, or laughing softly.
Well-intentioned but extremely touching.
The little girl on the stage was not happy after dancing one song, so she danced the second song.
The girl below changed the song again and followed the accompaniment.
scene
Lively and extremely light.
He Mei looked at the sitting Ging Guo, her fox eyes were gleaming with laughter, and the ends of her eyes that were always slightly curved revealed joy, and she felt completely at ease in her heart.
This little girl really did the right thing!
The little girl came down when she was tired from dancing, but the girl who accompanied her also became interested, and they even started playing the piano together.
A series of beautiful piano sounds agitated, and the male seat of Gou wanted to look over frequently, but he was embarrassed to lose his composure in front of so many bureaucrats.
I don’t know who started it later, and everyone started to fight over poems.
Rather than being impatient, you should start painting with pen and ink.
The banquet broke up until mid-afternoon.
Baiguo rewarded the first girl with a ten-year-old head and face. The girl seemed to be so happy that she kept gesticulating in front of her mother.
Her mother gave her a vicious look before she looked down in aggrieved tone.
Suddenly, as if she saw something, the little girl's eyes lit up and she kept shouting: "Daddy, daddy..."
Bai Guo looked over and saw that the person who came out was the Grand Governor Mo Pian.
Mo Pian first smiled at his daughter, then nodded at Bai Guo and said, "Kangle County Master."
Baiguo called out in courtesy, "Grand Governor."
Mo Xian picked up his woman and spoke in an extremely doting tone, "But are you going crazy again?"
The little girl giggled when she heard this.
The woman next to him was helpless and bowed to Bai Guofu, "The county master is laughing."
Ging Guo shook his head slightly.
Pang Yan bit her lip from behind.
It was probably the first time for the county head of her family to see such a pampered daughter.
The head of her family was so pitiful that he spent ten years in this backyard without his parents.
The head of her county must not know how to get along with her parents.
The head of her county...
Pang Yan watched Bai Guo watch the Governor's carriage leave before turning back. Her eyes were clear and polite but not as envy as she imagined.
"What's wrong?" Bai Guo looked at Pang Yan.
Pang Yan was speechless.
Isn't her county head envious?
Just send people off politely?
Bai Guo glanced at Pang Yan strangely, then stepped over the door frame and walked into the house.
It took a long time for Pang Yan to catch up, but she still didn't understand.
Shouldn't a person who has been without father's love and mother's love for ten years be extremely envious of this kind of scene?
Why could the head of her family be so... indifferent.
When Gingguo returned to the yard, he saw a large cage with more than a dozen rabbits in the corner of the yard.
This was sent back by the secret guard.
After all, it was hard for her to come back all day and night by herself, and it was even more cumbersome to take the rabbit with her.
