When Mother Chen came in, she saw Bai Yu'an sitting up straight, her hands stretched out by the stove, and her white sleeves hanging down leisurely.
Her body was tranquil, her hair was half-tied, and the light shone on her white clothes, as if she was bathed in brilliance.
With a slight smile on her face, Bai Yu'an saw Mother Chen come in and said, "Mother Chen, come and sit down quickly."
Mother Chen felt a little uneasy. If she was kicked out at her age, she would have no source of expenses.
She has a lot of leisure time with Bai Yu'an, and can often go back to take care of him on weekdays. The salary is not much less than A Tao. It is difficult to find such a good job.
But the more easy-going and careless Bai Yu'an is now, the more Chen's mother feels that she has made a big mistake.
She took two steps, then knelt down in front of Bai Yu'an and cried: "Sir, it was the old slave who stole the ginseng. The youngest son at home has become more seriously ill recently, and the old slave was also obsessed with it for a while. Did this."
"Please sir, have mercy..."
Bai Yu'an hurriedly asked A Tao to help Mother Chen up, and said in a gentle tone: "Mother Chen has been taking care of me all these years, how can I blame her."
As soon as Mother Chen heard this, she quickly looked at Bai Yu'an: "Sir, do you really not blame me?"
Bai Yu'an's eyes fell on Mother Chen, and her tranquil eyes made Mother Chen forget to wipe her tears: "Of course I still blame Mother Chen."
"Mother Chen has been with me for so long. Why didn't you tell me if there was a problem at home?"
Bai Yu'an sighed as he spoke: "Mother Chen should know that I don't like to treat the people below me harshly. There is something going on in Mother Chen's family. If she had told me earlier, I would definitely not stay out of it and watch with cold eyes."
Tears welled up in the corners of Chen's mother's eyes, and she cried intermittently: "It's the old slave who is confused..."
"It's just that this old slave also knows that these days are not easy for you, so why bother you..."
Bai Yu'an saw Mother Chen crying again, her eyebrows dropped, and she added: "I have never been an outsider, and Mother Chen's love for her son is only human nature."
"It's just that if Mother Chen encounters any difficulties in the future, she should tell me first."
"Although I don't blame you this time, if Mother Chen doesn't say hello again in the future, I will blame Mother Chen."
After hearing these serious words, Mother Chen couldn't help but nodded her head; "Don't worry, sir, I will never dare to do this again."
Bai Yuan's face showed a bit of a smile and said: "I have nothing to do this afternoon, so I went to mother Chen's house to have a look. Maybe there is someone I can help with."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen quickly said: "Old slave's home is not like here. It is so crowded that I might dirty your clothes."
Bai Yu'an never paid much attention to this, and just said: "Mother Chen has been with me for so long, but I have never cared much about Mother Chen's family affairs."
"I was negligent. Please take it as my heart. Mother Chen doesn't have to refuse."
Mother Chen was deeply moved and pretended to kneel down and kowtow to Bai Yu'an.
A Tao quickly stopped the person and said, "Mother Chen, there is no need to be like this. My young master is very kind to the people below. From now on, mother Chen will just do the things at hand well. This will be considered as her gratitude to the young master."
Mother Chen was pulled by A Tao and could not kneel down. She could only wipe her tears and say to Bai Yu'an: "I will serve you with all my heart in the future."
Bai Yu'an smiled: "I won't mention this matter anymore. Mother Chen can go and do her own business."
Mother Chen's heart suddenly relaxed, and she quickly left while wiping tears.
A Tao looked at the back of Chen's mother disappearing from behind the curtain, looked at Bai Yu'an and said, "How do you plan to repay the ginseng matter?"
Bai Yu'an leaned back on the chair again, his eyes were squinted by the light outside the window, and he said calmly: "Those things are nothing to Shen Jue. He sent them himself, there is no need to return them."
Before, Bai Yu'an didn't want to have any entanglement with Shen Jue, but after last night, Bai Yu'an felt that returning things to a shameless villain like Shen Jue would be another kind of involvement.
Seeing Bai Yuan's sudden change of attitude, A Tao asked again: "What do you plan to do with the remaining things?"
Bai Yu'an held her forehead and said a little tiredly: "When you go to Mother Chen's place in the afternoon, please take everything with you."
A Tao looked at Bai Yu'an with some worry: "Master, are you really planning to go out? It's still cold outside, and I'm afraid that Master will get cold again."
Bai Yu'an glanced at A Tao and said helplessly: "Why is your health so bad? When I go out in the afternoon, I just happen to ask you where there is a free room."
A Tao whispered: "Young Master, why don't you wait until your illness is better before you ask me about it?"
Bai Yu'an shook his head: "I have already recovered, but I still have a slight cough. It's not a serious problem."
Bai Yuan said and looked at A Tao: "I can't stay here any longer."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yuan seemed to have thought of something again, and grabbed the armrest and sat up.
A Tao watched Bai Yu'an put on her shoes, and hurriedly knelt down to put on Bai Yu'an's shoes, and asked, "Master, are you going out of the house at this time?"
Bai Yu'an nodded: "Go outside and get some fresh air."
After A Tao put on her shoes and straightened her clothes, Bai Yu'an walked outside.
A Tao caught up with her cloak and said, "Although the sun is perfect now, it's still windy. Master, we can't be careless."
Bai Yuan stood still helplessly.
A Tao asked while tying Bai Yu'an's belt: "Where is the cloak that Young Master wore last night? Why didn't he wear it back this morning?"
Bai Yu'an then remembered that the cloak had been left at Shen Jue's place.
Thinking of what happened last night, Bai Yu'an's face immediately turned ugly. She frowned slightly in front of A Tao and said, "A cloak doesn't bother me, but it will be eaten away by a dog."
A Tao's hand stopped and was bitten by a dog? ?
The cloak is with Shen Shoufu. Doesn't this compare Shen Shoufu to a dog?
A Tao was stunned in her heart, and she could tell by looking at the young master's expression that he was in a bad mood.
She didn't know what happened last night, but Bai Yu'an didn't say anything, so Ah Tao was silent and didn't want to ask.
Bai Yu'an saw that A Tao had fastened her cloak, lifted her legs and walked to the courtyard.
She walked around the corner and found nothing, so she walked back to the backyard.
A Tao followed Bai Yu'an, not knowing what the young master was looking for, so he followed without saying a word.
In the backyard next to the front yard is a pavilion and teahouse, and on the other side are banana trees and plum trees.
Bai Yu'an held his hands behind his back and continued walking along the wall. When he reached the innermost part, he saw a doorway behind a tall banana tree.
The doorway is not big, and can only accommodate one person to enter and exit. It is blocked by banana leaves, so it is not easy to find even if you get close.
Bai Yu'an's eyes moved, and then his face darkened.
Brushing away the leaves with his hands, Bai Yuan walked towards the doorway with his feet.
A Tao didn't see the hole, only saw Bai Yu'an standing next to the banana leaf, and the man who shook the god disappeared.
She was startled and hurriedly walked over to look for it, only to see a doorway.
She poked her head toward the doorway and saw Bai Yuan's calm face looking at her opposite.
