Xiang'er sat upright and nodded, looking at Sangsang with a thoughtful look on her face. She didn't know what she was thinking.
Sangsang was flustered, thinking about her recent behavior, but couldn't find anything wrong. She didn't know why Sister Xiang'er suddenly came to him.
Xiang'er looked at it for a long time and suddenly said: "Sang Sang, can you stand up and show me?"
Sangsang stood up in a hurry, not knowing what was going on.
Since Sang Sang moved into Baifu, she has concentrated on the sour plum soup business and is self-sufficient. The business has been quite large for a few months. Not only has her life improved, but she can also subsidize her family.
Over the past few months, Xiao Nizi has not grown taller, but her figure has become much rounder.
Xiang'er looked at it and nodded: "It's consistent with what the alchemist said."
"Sister Xiang'er, what are you talking about?" Sangsang couldn't help but ask, "Is there something wrong with Sangsang? Why can't you understand a word of what Sister Xiang'er said?"
Xiang'er lowered her eyebrows and said with some embarrassment: "I met an alchemist a few days ago. After reading the Feng Shui of Bai Mansion, he said that a girl with plump buttocks is needed to continue the popularity of the Bai family. As you can see, I My body is really thin, and the alchemist said that it was because of my lack of energy that I was unable to get pregnant.
Nowadays, the Bai Mansion is getting bigger and bigger, and many people outside are watching what is going on inside the White Mansion. The huge Bai family does not have any children, and there is already a lot of talk outside. I'm really worried about this. "
Sang Sang blinked, but still didn't quite understand. After thinking about it, she said, "It should just let nature take its course. I heard that Sister Xiang'er is with Brother Bai day and night..."
Sangsang blushed and said nothing.
Xiang'er's face also had a touch of color, but there was not much aftertaste in her eyes: "Sang Sang, you have been in Bai Mansion for a long time. I have also heard Bai Rou say something about you and my husband. Anyone can It can be seen that you have a lot of affection for my husband."
Sangsang interrupted in panic: "Sister Xiang'er, I...I didn't..."
Xiang'er took Sang Sang's hand and comforted her: "Listen to what I have to say. This matter is related to the reputation of the Bai family, and it is also to continue the fragrance of the Bai family. If you can..."
Both girls were smart, Xiang'er didn't make her words clear, but Sangsang finally came to his senses.
For a moment, the two women sat in the same room and fell into silence.
Outside, Bai Rou, who was eavesdropping, was so surprised that she covered her mouth and walked away quietly in shock.
In the room, the two women had their own thoughts.
Xiang'er had never thought about sharing her husband with another woman?
But compared with the messages from the outside world, this small grievance of mine cannot be compared with the reputation of the Bai family. As long as the Bai family can have a future, anything can be discussed.
Xiang'er thought about it, instead of waiting for the important minister's daughter to marry into the family and have a child to take over her position, it would be better to let the well-informed Sang Sang buy a house for her husband. After all, Sang Sang is quiet, well-behaved, and not troublesome, which is obviously more reassuring. .
Sang Sang didn't want to have a serious status in the White House as soon as possible, but she was too shy to fight for it, and she was afraid of offending her mistress.
Today, the mistress took the initiative to speak, and she felt like she got what she wanted. But the fly in the ointment is that if you regard the inheritance of the family line as a condition, won't you become a tool for reproduction?
Everything cannot be perfect. Both women have their own thoughts and regrets.
After a silent silence, Sangsang nodded first, and his face instantly turned red to the roots of his ears.
"You can't tell your husband about this matter truthfully. With my husband's temper, if he knew that I said this to you, he would definitely punish me." Xiang'er knew Bai Song well and told Sang Sang in advance, "This matter can only be done between you and me." You two know that I will give you the opportunity to get close to your husband when the time comes."
Xiang'er said this shamelessly, but she always felt weird in her heart.
But as the words were said, it was settled, and he left Sangsang's room after a while.
…
Bai Song rarely reads a book, but he doesn't know that Xiang'er, whom he trusts most, has sold him out.
The heavy rain continued from afternoon to evening.
It was supposed to be a peaceful day, but it was disrupted by heavy rain.
The amount of rainfall this time was so heavy that it has exceeded the drainage limit of Mingchun Garden. Water accumulated in many places in Baifu, and the orchards have been flooded.
Until Bai Song discovered that the situation was serious, he called all the guys from his property late at night to help with drainage and temporarily enlarged the drainage channel of the manor.
The entire Mingchun Garden was in chaos and busy all night.
However, the momentum of this rain is far more than that. Although dozens of people are working on drainage at the same time, the water accumulation in Baifu is getting worse and worse.
And this situation is by no means limited to Baifu. Every household in Ji County has been damaged to varying degrees.
In the early morning of the next day, Bai Song saw that there was no improvement at home, and finally called everyone to stop. In the face of natural disasters, manpower was not worth mentioning.
Fortunately, there was still a high ground at home, and the three-story attic where Qing'er lived did not get water. Bai Song asked everyone to take shelter in the garden near the attic until the rain stopped.
By dusk the next day, the heavy rain gradually subsided and everything seemed to be calm again.
After another night of drainage, the water in Bai Mansion was completely cleared.
After these two days, Bai Song felt like all his bones were falling apart. There were many disadvantages to having a house that was too big.
It was sunny on the third day. Dongxiang, who had gone out to Mang County to deliver a message, had not returned yet. I heard that there was a flood outside and the road was blocked. Maybe she was trapped in Mang County and could not come back for the time being.
The story of the flood was told by a man who came to help at home.
Bai Song is going to go out in person to see what's going on?
When I took the first step out of the house, there was no one on the street. The water on the street reached the top of my feet. The water accumulation was even worse than at home.
At a glance, there are all kinds of floating objects on the water on the street, including dead wood, weeds, rags, hemp shoes, and even the corpses of wild cats and dogs.
Bai Song frowned and looked back at Xiao Cui who was at home trying to follow him out. He hurriedly told her to stay at home and not go out at will.
At this time, Bai Feng, who had been living in Bai Mansion for free for a period of time, jumped down from the roof and stepped into the water: "I'll go out with you."
Bai Song nodded, and there was a feeling in his heart. The impact of the seemingly innocuous heavy rain exceeded Bai Song's imagination.
The two of them set off together towards Xiangyang Street.
Xiangyang Street is the highest place in Jixian County. When we got there, there was no stagnant water, but it did not bring Bai Song a sense of relaxation.
People and officers and soldiers were seen one after another, and almost every one of these people and officers and soldiers was dragging the corpses of the people in their hands. They were piled one on top of another, and soon they formed a hill. The air was filled with a putrid smell. Disgusting.
"This...is this caused by yesterday's heavy rain?" Bai Song was stunned and couldn't believe it.
Bai Feng has been standing high in the Bai Mansion, watching the movements around him. Yesterday, he looked around the city in the heavy rain, so he knew the situation.
"It rained heavily last night and the Weihe River surged, flooding the entire county. Countless people were washed away by the water in their dreams."
