Chapter 359 Regret

Qin Wenyin was at a loss as she held the wood carving in her hand, which was clearly carved in her own image, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

She has always been smart and sensitive. She may not have felt it before, but now she has a strange feeling in her heart, and she has guessed for no reason.

She looked at Bai Yitang inquiringly.

However, Bai Yitang seemed to be unaware that he had created a pool of spring water, and he looked at her and explained softly, "Niu Niu always wakes up at night, if she wakes up and sees your statue accompanying her, I miss her." It will feel much safer.”

Qin Wenyin was still thinking about the polite refusal, so she was stuck in her heart, unable to speak out again.

She thought, maybe she was wrong, but her heart couldn't be quiet no matter what.

She tightened the wooden carving in her hand and said, "I will give it to Niu Niu."

Bai Yitang nodded, and took a slight step back to widen the distance between the two, but still let the other party feel her presence.

But such a distance made Qin Wenyin feel much safer, and she was no longer as nervous as before.

She stroked the wood carving in her hand, and felt the polished and smooth lines on it. She is a person who has learned how to carve seals. She is good at wood carving and stone carving. Not to mention proficient, but she knows how to carve wood so finely and polish it so smooth How much effort is needed.

Besides, Bai Yitang is not a carpenter yet.

Why not engrave the big brother and sister-in-law, but only her?

If you want to avoid suspicion with your sister-in-law, what about your elder brother, shouldn't he be the most suitable person?

She, even though she has reconciled, but that's why she should avoid suspicion, right?

Qin Wenyin was thinking wildly and couldn't help but look up at Bai Yitang, and met his gaze as soon as she raised her eyes, Bai Yitang smiled at her.

The heat that had just subsided on Qin Wenyin's face rose again. She had always known that Bai Yitang was good-looking, handsome and handsome, with long eyebrows and a righteous spirit on his body. Therefore, although she didn't like his playful personality, But I admire and admire him as a man.

At this time, seeing him sitting opposite him, his back straightened, his slack posture was gone, and he appeared somewhat dignified and steady.

"Grandma, we're here." The coachman stopped the carriage, seeing that the two people inside were still not getting out of the carriage, he couldn't help reminding.

Qin Wenyin regained consciousness in an instant, she didn't expect that she was so dumbfounded that she didn't even know when she got home.

She hurriedly looked away, stood up and said, "Hero Bai, do you want to go in and have a seat?"

Bai Yitang smiled and said: "No need, Miss Qin just hand over the gift for me, and I'll pick Niuniu up tomorrow to play."

After finishing speaking, he opened the curtain first and jumped out of the carriage, stretched out his hand to Qin Wenyin, and looked at her with piercing eyes.

Qin Wenyin smiled at him, and instead of helping his hand, she got out of the car while holding the car door and stepping on the stool.

Bai Yitang withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened, nodded slightly to her and said: "Then I'll go back first, Miss Qin should go back to rest earlier."

After all, he leaped up like a great roc spreading its wings, and disappeared before the two of them after a few ups and downs like a swallow returning to its nest.

The coachman's eyes were full of admiration. Although he had seen it many times, he was still amazed every time he saw each other.

Qin Wenyin was also staring at the direction where Bai Yitang disappeared in a daze, and it took her a long time to return to the house with the box in her arms.

"Grandma, are you back?" Qin Wenyin's eldest girl Shuxuan came up to take the things in her hand, but Qin Wenyin slightly avoided her.

Qin Wenyin put the box on the table, smiled at Shuxuan, "I'm a little thirsty, go make a pot of tea."

"It's late at night, I'm afraid my aunt won't be able to fall asleep drinking tea at this time," Shu Xuan said with a smile: "Why don't I make you a cup of almond tea, it can quench your thirst and sleep well."

Qin Wenyin nodded, "Then go quickly."

Shuxuan smiled and backed away, taking the other servants in the room away as well.

"Grandma is also really strange. Which lady doesn't have seven or eight girls to follow? Our family is not empty. If she doesn't like us, I will accept it if someone else comes up. But she doesn't use anyone, and she won't let us go out. Then, the master and wife are also relieved..."

Shuxuan gave her a hard look, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Feixue, when will you be able to talk about the matter of the master? Where have you learned all the rules? If you let me hear that again, I'll let the nanny send it to you." You go back to Runing."

Feixue was startled, and then curled her lips. They were all selected from Zhuangzi. Their parents or grandparents had served in the direct branch, and now they are all starting from scratch. Who is better than whom? ?

Pian Shuxuan just went to Beijing to be chosen as a big girl, and they are obviously no worse than her, but they can only be second-class.

It’s fine if my aunt uses them, as long as she works hard, she can always climb up, but my aunt doesn’t know why, she doesn’t like to be followed by her servants at home, and she doesn’t like to take them with her when she goes out, she goes in and out by herself.

If this continues, I don't know if the master and wife will blame them for not serving them well.

Feixue wanted to argue, but she was afraid that her master would find out if the matter would become serious, so she could only curl her lips and keep silent.

Shuxuan frowned and went to the kitchen. These servants all came here again. Although the elders in the family taught the rules of serving the master when they were young, they hadn't done it after all, and they inevitably made mistakes.

My aunt doesn't like to use them, perhaps because she is not used to it after years of habit, but it may also be because they don't suit her mind.

For the past three months, Shuxuan has been working hard to satisfy Qin Wenyin, and now she has achieved some results. She doesn't want to waste all her efforts.

If you can't stay in the capital, you have to go back to the old house in Runing. The direct branch doesn't have a master in Runing, and these servants can only guard an empty house and those fields when they go back. What can they do?

Perhaps she should try to suggest that the great-aunt send them to the mammy to learn the rules again.

At this time, Qin Wenyin was opening the box, holding the wood carving in her hand again for a closer look.

In the car just now, she couldn't take a closer look, and could only feel the fineness of the knife skill by the feel of the hand. Now, with the bright lights in the room, Qin Wenyin can see how much the wood carving resembles her.

Not only the image, but also the charm, which can only be carved with heart, and she is even more sure of the guess in her heart.

She had never thought of such a thing, and the other party was an acquaintance like Bai Yitang, Qin Wenyin's face was flushed, nervous and at a loss.

She didn't know how to say no to him.

The other party didn't make it clear, so she couldn't bring it up rashly, Qin Wenyin thought, maybe she should avoid him a little bit, and if she hasn't seen him for a long time, no matter how great her affection is, she will gradually calm down, and he can know her attitude.

But this is impossible, not to mention Niu Niu, Li Baolu and Gu Jingyun are also there.

Bai Yitang ran over the next day under the pretext of picking up Niu Niu for breakfast, but Qin Wenyin deliberately avoided him in advance and did not meet him.

However, it was of no use, Niu Niu took the initiative to come to her, "Auntie, Uncle Bai said he has a gift for you to give me, right?"

Qin Wenyin saw Bai Yitang who was following Niuniu, her face turned red and she said, "Yes, it was very late last night, so my aunt didn't give it to you. Go play with Uncle Bai first, and then aunt will bring it to you when you come back." OK?"

"I want my aunt to go with me!"

"My aunt still has things to do, just go with Niu Niu and Uncle Bai, and my aunt will cook delicious food for you at home."

"There's delicious food out there, I don't want you to cook it," Niu Niu received Uncle Bai's wink, and immediately entangled her like an octopus, "Auntie, come with me, I just love to play with you."

After all, he stared at her with wet eyes.

Qin Wenyin couldn't refuse and followed, Bai Yitang watched with a smile the whole time, and didn't go forward when Qin Wenyin agreed to go together, but silently followed behind the two of them, watching them laugh and play.

This made the tense Qin Wenyin relax, and began to focus on Niu Niu.

Bai Yitang looked at Niuniu thoughtfully, it seemed that his step was a little too big, which frightened people.

He was quite helpless, he knew that he would not give away the woodcarving last night.

Bai Yitang has little experience and no friends who can give him advice, so he can only go to Gu Jingyun for advice.

"What do you think I should do next?"

Gu Jingyun: ...

Bai Yitang looked at him with piercing eyes and said, "Jing Yun, you agree that I'm with your mother, don't pretend to be innocent, hurry up, or I'm going to tell Baolu, anyway, your mother has already noticed."

Gu Jingyun was helpless, "Master, since you planned to keep my mother from finding out, why did you give her the wood carving?"

Isn't that self-inflicted?

Bai Yitang regretted: "At that time, my hands were itchy, I just picked up a piece of wood and carved it, and who knew it would be her. Now that the carving is finished, I feel itchy if I don't send it out."

Gu Jingyun knocked on the table and said: "Since my mother has already noticed, then master, you might as well get straight to the point."

"Then let her be aboveboard and reject me with righteous words?"

"She rejected you, but you can continue chasing you," Gu Jingyun said calmly, "It goes without saying that Baolu and I, my uncle and aunt will most likely stand by your side. We will be there to persuade you, I think mother will seriously consider it."

Bai Yitang rolled his eyes, and finally shook his head and said: "Forget it, you don't need to persuade me, you just need to provide me with some convenience."

Gu Jingyun looked at him with raised eyebrows.

Bai Yitang sighed and said, "I don't know if your mother will like me. After all, we grew up and lived in different environments. I don't want her to consider staying with me because of you."

"I am happy with her. I want to marry her because I want her to be happy, not to choose to be with me for various considerations."

Regardless of success or failure in the end, he will respect her choice.

The corner of Gu Jingyun's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with a smile: "Master, come on!"

Bai Yitang scratched his head and asked again: "Aside from being open and honest, you really have nothing to do? Maybe it can make your mother feel that her previous feelings were all misunderstandings, and we can still get along as before and cultivate our relationship for a while longer. .”

Gu Jingyun shook his head, "My mother is very smart. If you make a wrong step, you can't turn back. Master, I know my mother. At this time, I can get some good feelings from her by being open and honest. If you drag it on, she will think that you are tempting and belittling her. "
