Lin Xixue pinched her eyebrows and tapped the back of her head, thinking, am I hearing things again?
But then, she saw a girl wearing a double-breasted coat, carrying heavy makeup and wearing a horse face, flying into her field of vision.
Several servants behind him were chasing after him frantically.
Wearing such clothes, it was impossible to run fast, and the girl was quickly cornered.
She raised her round fan and pointed it at the servants, threatening: "I'm warning you, don't come over. If you take one step forward, I will bite my tongue and commit suicide!"
Seeing this, the leading servant immediately knelt down and begged: "Second Miss, please don't embarrass us. We are just servants. If you run away, our legs will definitely be broken. If you are injured, we will be broken even more." leg."
"Miss, I just want to make a living in the Xu Mansion. Can you please come back with us?"
"No, I'm a human, not a pet. Why didn't you think that I would run away when you forced me to get married?" The girl refused righteously.
"Miss, where do you start with these words? This young master of the Gu family has three letters and six appointments. He is getting married by a matchmaker, so how can he talk about forcing the marriage?"
"I don't want to marry him. I don't know her at all. You call this a violation of a woman's will and forced marriage. Do you understand?"
The girl turned her head aside and stopped communicating.
...
After hearing the conversation between the two parties, and combined with the girl's rather noble attire, it was unmistakable that this girl was the second young lady of the Xu family.
Bai Qing glanced at it, not intending to meddle in other people's business, and continued to move forward while holding the horse.
But it was impossible for Lin Xixue to ignore this conflict. After all, as a modern person, how could she not know what the mantra "Odd changes to even, unchanged, and the symbols look at the quadrants" meant.
She was about to step forward to intervene, but Bai Qing on the side quickly held her back, her eyes full of helplessness.
"Can we please stop causing trouble? You set the East Market on fire a few days ago and wandered around the city with your neck crooked, causing panic. Do you know how much effort I spent cleaning up your mess?"
"Besides, this is the Xu family's housework, why are you meddling in other people's business?"
Lin Xixue didn't know how to explain it for a while, so she could only say: "I'm not meddling in other people's business, but this girl may be very important to me."
"..." Bai Qing was completely silent, "Then please tell me why it is so important."
"She...I..."
Lin Xixue also choked. She definitely couldn't reveal that she had traveled through time, let alone explain to Bai Qing what time travel meant.
"Maybe she and I are from the same hometown?"
"Are you from the same hometown as her? Are you also from Xinliang City? Besides, being from the same hometown is important? So many people in Xinliang City are very important to you, right?"
Perhaps Bai Qing couldn't bear it anymore and finally turned on the yin and yang mode.
"I'm not a fellow villager in this sense. I can't explain it clearly. Anyway, it's important. I'll go to the head office with my face covered."
"Don't... I'm really scared of you. Don't run around. I'll bring this girl over. Okay!"
Bai Qing put the reins into Lin Xixue's hands, walked up to everyone and took out the token. After seeing the token clearly, all the servants bowed their heads and worshiped.
She lifted everyone's bodies and whispered a few words, and then the faces of several servants showed a rather embarrassed look.
"This matter is not trivial, and no one can make the decision. Why don't you go to the house and talk about it slowly?"
"No need, I'm not asking you to make the decision, I'm just asking you to pass on the message."
Bai Qing took out a piece of paper sprinkled with gold, dipped it in gold powder with chicken-spacing regular script, and wrote a series of beautiful small characters, then folded it in half and handed it to the servant.
"With this thing, I think it will be easier for you to explain to the master."
Seeing this thing, the servant was overjoyed. It should be noted that since the second young lady suffered from Fenghan a few days ago, her whole personality has changed drastically, which has caused headaches for the servants in the house.
Now that someone was taking him away in the name of Yunzhou Mansion, he would no longer have to serve this weird second lady, and he was too late to be happy.
He took the golden note and bowed respectfully.
The second young lady of the Xu family had stars in her eyes. She excitedly took Bai Qing's hand and said, "My name is Xu Zhiyi. Thank you very much, young lady, for saving me from the sea of misery!"
"Little...sister?" Bai Qing frowned. She couldn't understand why she had to add the word "little" in front of sister.
Seeing Bai Qing's expression, Xu Zhiyi rolled her eyes and immediately understood that Bai Qing was not a time traveler.
She said a little slyly: "Ahem, this is not to see my sister, you have ice muscles and jade bones, and you are as beautiful as a celestial being. The small one is just to show how cute you are!"
"Oh, that's how it is." Bai Qing's reply was still a little lukewarm, "Just follow me."
Xu Zhiyi nodded and silently followed Bai Qing back to Lin Xixue.
Bai Qing took the reins and said helplessly: "Hey, I brought it to you."
Lin Xixue and Xu Zhiyi looked at each other, both of them tacitly understanding each other.
"Let's go, this is not the place to talk. Let's talk later." Lin Xixue took her hand and followed Bai Qing.
The three of them came to the place where Yunzhou Mansion had arranged for Bai Qing to stay. After a while, Bai Qing said, "Since you want to build the temple, make arrangements as soon as possible. We must set off before midnight tonight."
Lin Xixue did not object, but she raised a new question: "Since you don't intend to pursue the meat and gold case, why do you have to take me back to Lantau Island? Can I not go?"
"No, there are many doubts about you, and I can't figure out the many strange features, so I must take you back to the master and hand you over to the master."
Although Lin Xixue didn't know what the other party was going to do with her, she didn't have the right to refuse at this moment. After all, she still had the other party's restrictions on her.
"Okay, then I will go and arrange matters related to the temple construction as soon as possible."
After saying that, she dressed up in disguise, put on a veil, retrieved the Tibetan silver, and went straight to the Zi Ren Pavilion.
The so-called Zi people are ancient construction craftsmen, who are often good at carpentry and masonry.
After entering the museum, the steward came forward to receive her. Lin Xixue explained her purpose, and the steward immediately beamed with joy.
"Hey - this is a big deal for you. I can't make the decision. You have to ask the young master."
"Can you help me, the steward?"
"Hey... I'm not afraid of your jokes. A few days ago, our young master's family didn't know what happened. We left for the City God's Temple before dawn all day long and didn't come back after the sun went down. "
"I have to take care of the store affairs here, so I can't make a report on my behalf. But if you want to find Shaodong's house, you can go to the intersection of Chenghuang Temple Street. You're right!"
"Thank you, shopkeeper, I wonder what your young master's appearance looks like. What characteristics can he identify?"
"Hey, you're just asking. Our young master is holding a flower-and-bird folding fan. He can't speak without this fan. When he talks, he must use the fan."
"Hey, go to the entrance of the City God's Temple and see a pergola. Under the canopy is a handsome young man holding a fan and fighting crickets. He is our young master's family."
"Thank you, shopkeeper." Lin Xixue said goodbye politely and left immediately.
But she quickly thought that in front of the City God's Temple, there were dandies who couldn't talk without playing with fans, and fighting with crickets...
Hiss, why is this feature so directional?
Black lines appeared on her forehead, and her thoughts drifted back to the scene when a group of dudes were talking about her behind her back after she left the bookstore...
