"Bai Zixiang, then plant it in your yard!" Bai Lingyue continued to tease Bai Zixiang.
"No, no, no, I don't like it, it's too smelly." Bai Zixiang shook his head hastily.
"Pa!" Bai Lingyue slapped Bai Zixiang's face, and his fair face suddenly swelled.
"If you want to be a licking dog, go ahead on your own, don't use me as a stepping stone! You all know the smell, don't I? Tell you Bai Zixiang, if you drag me on as a licking dog in the future, don't blame me for being rude! Cut it off. If he doesn’t let me, I’ll kill him too.”
After Bai Lingyue finished speaking, she turned around and sat at the stone table in the yard, waiting for the gardener Uncle Wang to chop down the ginkgo tree.
Uncle Wang, the gardener, was a little embarrassed when he saw the eldest son protecting the ginkgo tree. Bai Zixiang was still the eldest son of the Bai family.
"Uncle Wang, I'll give you ten taels of silver. If you don't do it, I'll find someone else." Bai Lingyue took out an ingot of silver from her pocket and put it on the table.
Uncle Wang's eyes lit up when he saw it. His monthly salary was 800 taels of silver. These 10 taels of silver were his annual income. It was quite cost-effective to cut down one tree.
"Master, stand still, my ax doesn't have eyes." After saying that, he took the sharp ax and chopped it at the ginkgo tree.
The ginkgo tree shook violently. Bai Zixiang was a weak scholar. He had never seen such a posture before. He was so frightened that he hurriedly left the ginkgo tree.
Then he looked at Uncle Wang with a distressed expression and chopped down the ginkgo tree in a few strokes.
"Go ahead and plant the ginkgo tree in the eldest son's yard." Bai Lingyue said to Uncle Wang.
"Okay." Uncle Wang picked up the ginkgo tree and was about to go to Bai Zixiang's yard. Bai Zixiang didn't care about anything and hurried back to close the door. He was determined not to let the ginkgo settle in his yard.
"Miss, what should we do now?" Uncle Wang asked.
"Put the ginkgo tree at our door. Uncle Wang, go dig some plum blossom trees in the garden and plant them. If anyone comes to our door again today to fool around with you, plant the ginkgo tree in his yard."
Bai Lingyue felt better when she saw the ginkgo tree being chopped down.
After this was done, she was ready to go out for shopping. To deal with those people, she must first not let herself suffer.
"Xiao Taohong, let's go shopping. Ingots, agates, and jade bracelets, you guys stay in the house to take care of Xiaowu and Xiaoliu."
The girls all listened to Bai Lingyue's words, which made her very satisfied. As long as Xiaowu and Xiaoliu recover, their mother's side will be safer.
Bai Lingyue went out today. She was wearing blue men's clothes, and Xiao Taohong was also wearing a servant's clothes, because she was going to visit her mother's dowry shop in the capital, and men's clothes were more convenient.
The first stop on the way out was one of the shops in my mother's trousseau, a jewelry shop.
In recent years, the income from the jewelry shop has been used for consumption in the White House, and Zhou Luoyi has no time to take care of it.
Bai Lingyue stood at the door, and the waiter inside looked indifferent.
"How does this business work? The guests have already arrived at the door and they don't come out to greet them?" Xiao Taohong asked.
The waiter inside walked over slowly.
"Hey, are you still a guest? You can just come in and choose yourself, and you are still waiting for me to serve you? Do you know that this is the shop of Mr. Bai's family at that time, and it is your honor to sell you things, what else? So picky?"
Bai Lingyue saw that this waiter was really amazing, he could actually talk to the guests like this.
"Are you Mr. Bai's son?" Bai Lingyue asked.
"no."
"Are you a direct relative of Prime Minister Bai?"
"no."
Bai Lingyue asked twice, but the waiter replied disdainfully: "No."
Bai Lingyue walked in and looked at the waiter: "You are just a dog of the Bai family, what are you so proud of?"
