Chapter 589 Aren’t they still giving up?

Three days later, when Bai Ruozhu received Jiang Yichun's letter, she was preparing the clothes to wear to Mrs. Meng's banquet.

Jiang Yichun said in the letter that she was about to board the ship, and unless she docked on the way, it would be inconvenient for someone to deliver the letter to her. Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but find it funny. Excluding the time it took for the letter to be delivered to her, Jiang Yichun wrote this letter almost the day after he left.

And judging from the content of the letter, Jiang Yichun's forgetfulness Gu has not yet been solved. She doesn't know why her heart is pounding when she thinks about the forgetfulness Gu. She is probably afraid that she will be surpassed by others.

Bai Ruozhu was thinking wildly, and the time passed quickly. By noon, she had only finished a quarter of the rugs she was making.

Annoyed, she dropped what she was doing and hugged Dengdeng to eat complementary food. She had been off the medicine for a few days and could breastfeed Dundeng, so she gave the temporary wet nurse a sum of money and thanked her properly.

As soon as she walked out of the house, she met the inquiring eyes of her second brother. The second brother raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong? Are you lost?"

Jiang Yichun's letter could not be sent directly to the Bai family, but to the city lord's palace, and then Meng Liangsheng handed it over to Bai Zepei, and finally to Bai Ruozhu.

Therefore, Bai Zepei knew very well about Jiang Yichun's visit to Beijing.

Bai Ruozhu pouted in shame, okay, the second brother finally caught something and made fun of her this time.

Before she could speak, Bai Zepei strode up to her, stretched out his hand to rub the top of her hair, and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Meng said he will be promoted when he leaves, so you can prepare your wedding clothes."

Bai Ruozhu's face turned red. Was her second brother trying to persuade her? Why are you bringing up the wedding dress? Aren't you just trying to tease her?

"Second brother, stop worrying about my affairs. You've been attending banquets a lot lately, but haven't you met a beautiful woman that you like?" Bai Ruozhu decided to fight back.

Bai Zepei's eyes flickered, "No."

Hum hum, Bai Ruozhu snickered in her heart, the second brother must be hiding something, is his love finally about to blossom?

At this time, Lin Ping'er asked her brother and sister to go to dinner. Guizhi brought the food into the main room. Bai Ruozhu suddenly thought of Guizhi's feelings for her second brother, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She felt bad for her good sisters.

I hope Guizhi can let go of it soon. Relationships are the hardest thing to force.

In the evening, Bai Ruozhu summoned the female relatives at home and explained to them Mrs. Meng's request for the screen. When everyone heard whether it was going to be presented to the palace or given to the Queen Mother, they immediately became serious, even their spines were shaking. Straightened up a bit.

"Don't be too nervous. This version of ours is just a sample. It's not the final one to be handed in, and only a quarter is enough." Seeing how nervous they were, Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but laugh. Thinking about it, It was the same for me at the beginning. I was afraid of losing my head and didn't dare to take on this job.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. Bai Ruozhu looked at Wang Caiyue and said, "Sister-in-law, it's important to have the baby, just see how to do it first. When it's officially done, you can start helping."

Wang Caiyue pursed her lips and nodded in agreement. She shouldn't show off at this time.

Soon everyone started to divide the work. The good thing about crochet is that it is easy to connect the pieces together.

By the afternoon of the next day, the first version of the sample was ready, and Bai Ruozhu took the sample to the Meng Mansion.

She is now a popular person in front of Mrs. Meng, and she is usually generous. When the concierge saw her, he happily greeted her and sent her to the inner courtyard.

Soon after meeting the old lady, Bai Ruozhu showed the small picture to Mrs. Meng. Mrs. Meng couldn't help but nodded, "It's really the same as the picture."

The old lady touched it gently with her hand and asked a little worriedly: "If the screen is left for a long time, will it droop and deform?"

When Bai Ruozhu thought about this possibility, she couldn't help but frowned and said, "Old madam, I have to think about some improvements and bring you the second edition in a few days."

The old lady said with a smile: "You are serious, kid. If I leave the matter to you, I will feel relieved."

Then Bai Ruozhu showed the old lady her teeth again. Her dental pulp was almost healed and the cavity could be filled. Bai Ruozhu made a mental calculation. In a few days, she would be able to fill the old lady's teeth after getting the materials she asked the Du family to find.

After saying goodbye to the old lady, Bai Ruozhu went to Xie's Mansion again. She had visited Yu Hongxiu once before after she was injured, but she hadn't come again since then. She was a little worried that something had happened to Yu Hongxiu.

When we arrived at Xie's Mansion, Mr. Xie was not at home. Before Yu Hongxiu came out, a middle-aged woman with a square face came out. Although she greeted Bai Ruozhu with a smile, her eyes kept looking at Bai Ruozhu up and down. .

"I don't know what to call this girl?" the square-faced woman asked.

Bai Ruozhu didn't like this woman's attitude. It was already very impolite to look at the guests like this. Shouldn't she introduce herself first and then ask the guests? Why is it like doing a household registration check?

Bai Ruozhu guessed that this person was a relative of the Xie family, so she still gave her some face, and blessed her body by saying, "My dear Bai Ruozhu, I wonder what I should call this aunt?"

I don't know what happened, but as soon as I heard Bai Ruozhu announce her name, the square-faced woman's originally smiling face instantly darkened, and the look she looked at Bai Ruozhu changed from appraising to naked disgust.

"Huh, so you are that Bai Ruozhu." The square-faced woman's tone was very strange, which made Bai Ruozhu confused.

At this time, Yu Hongxiu's voice came from the room: "Ruyi, go outside and see if Ruozhu is here?"

Bai Ruozhu was startled when she heard Yu Hongxiu's voice, because the voice was a little hoarse and sounded very tired, as if she had just been seriously ill.

She had no intention of paying attention to this square-faced woman. When she saw Hongxiu's maid Ruyi coming out, she hurriedly went up to meet her and asked, "Ruyi, what's wrong with Hongxiu sister?"

Ruyi glanced at the square-faced woman and opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something but didn't dare.

Bai Ruozhu made a rough guess and didn't want to embarrass Ruyi, "Let's go see Sister Hongxiu and talk about it later."

Unexpectedly, as soon as she lifted her feet, the square-faced woman suddenly rushed over, stopped her and said, "Who allowed you to go in? You are a quack who is deceiving others with your lies. I can no longer watch Hongxiu being deceived by you!"

The clay figurine still had a bad temper. Bai Ruozhu stared at her and asked coldly: "Who are you? It's not your turn to take care of the Xie family's affairs, right?"

The square-faced woman said proudly: "I am Xie Dun's aunt. His parents left early, so who cares about him if his uncle and I don't care about him? We are his parents. Do you think I am qualified to care about him?" What’s going on with the Xie family?”

Bai Ruozhu's mind started spinning rapidly. She remembered that Yu Hongxiu had mentioned the situation of the Xie family before, and said that she had been married to Mr. , there are also some people who let Mr.
