Chapter 248 Feeling guilty

Xiao Zheng said silently, "Yes, Young Master."

Xie Xingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, what did Gu Yu want to do?

…

Bai Xianyu came to his father's former residence.

After his father died, he and his mother emptied out their rooms once, but they also left some things behind. They buried their favorite things and left some daily things for their children as souvenirs.

The seal is also among them.

Even though someone comes to clean it every two days, Lvzhu still asked someone to wipe it in advance. Now you can't see any dust when you go in, as if the loving couple still lived here.

Bai Xianyu had been here many times, and he quickly found a seal from the cabinet in his mind, "Luzhu, bring me some paper."

Lu Zhu flattened the paper she had prepared on the table, "Miss, it's ready."

"Yes." Bai Xianyu raised his sleeves to print patterns on the paper, and half of the tiger stripes were dyed as red as blood, as if he was about to jump off the paper in the next second.

She unfolded her mother's portrait again, frowned and compared it carefully.

That's right, one of these belongs to my father.

After Bai Xianyu confirmed one, he continued to compare. There were many private seals of his father, and they were used for different purposes, but after comparing them one by one, he still couldn't find the other one.

Lv Zhu looked at the dozen or so seals on the table and wondered: "Why are you looking for these two seals? Maybe they are the seals of the person who painted them?"

Bai Xianyu also frowned, "It shouldn't be the seal of the person who painted it, but I can't say for sure."

She had a familiar feeling about these two seals. One was her father's, so whose was the other?

There were very few clues about her mother's life experience, and she didn't want to let go of any information.

If the owner of that seal is still alive, he may know more than they do, and the person who can seal it with his father's seal should be someone who is familiar with his father and mother.

Bai Xianyu suddenly rubbed his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I almost forgot, Bai Li, please help me send a letter to my grandmother and the others to see if they have any impression of these two seals."

"Yes, miss." Bai Li said outside the door.

Putting these seals back to their original places, Bai Xianyu and Lvzhu passed by the backyard when they came out. Different from the silence and quietness of the past, there were several women with unusual postures and temperaments standing on the gravel road, all with rosy faces, and

Bai Jinyan and a servant stood under the tree, with Xie Xingyun next to him.

Lu Zhu stopped Bai Xianyu in surprise, "Miss, these people seem to be matchmakers."

Bai Xianyu was stunned for a moment, and the next second she completely understood.

Separated by a few clusters of extravagant peonies, she looked through the gaps between the petals. Qi Ci, the son of Marquis Dingbei, whom she had not seen for many days, Lin Xingjian, the son of Marquis Dingyuan, and some familiar children of aristocratic families stood in twos and threes.

, the atmosphere was a little awkward, they were all wearing brocade robes with jade bone fans attached to their waists, and the jade swayed slightly as they talked and moved.

Bai Xianyu: "..."

Luzhu continued in surprise: "Miss, are these people here to propose marriage to you?"

pretty close.

She had met him once during the Lantern Festival before Qi Ci. At that time, he told her to wait for him for three months and he would take care of the family affairs. But a lot of things happened after that. For a while, there was a matter in Beijing regarding her infertility refusal.

Bai Xianyu was very surprised that Qi Ci could still appear here.

There is also Lin Xingjian. Lin Xingjian’s mother loves her son as much as her mother. Last time when Mrs. Dingyuanhou held a banquet, she made a few requests, but Mrs. Dingyuanhou gave up and stopped mentioning them. But now Lin Xingjian actually

I also brought a matchmaker to arrange the marriage.

It seemed that they, like her, felt that Fourth Brother was easier to talk to, but after actually fighting with Fourth Brother for several times, Bai Xianyu found that Fourth Brother was the one who was the best at Tai Chi among her brothers.

"Yes." Bai Xianyu replied.

She looked at where Xie Xingyun was standing. Bai Jinyan was talking to him at the moment. She didn't know what he said. Xie Xingyun nodded indifferently. Then he walked towards a man and spoke expressionlessly.

They were too far apart and the matchmakers gathered around to discuss again. Bai Xianyu couldn't hear clearly and could only see his mouth moving.

After Xie Xingyun finished speaking, his expression became even more indifferent, and then he walked towards the next person.

"Miss, what did the Fourth Young Master and the Young Marquis say? Why did the Young Marquis go to them one by one..." Luzhu thought for a while, "Proclaim sovereignty?"

Bai Xianyu: "..."

"No, it can't be used like this, but if not, why did they leave after the young marquis finished talking to them? Could it be that the young masters agreed, so they asked the young marquis to send them away?" Lu Zhu showed an embarrassed look.

smile.

Bai Xianyu paused for a moment, and said with some helplessness: "I guess the fourth brother must have said, 'Today's test is to send these people away. If you can't do it, don't bother my sister. Oh, that's right, you can't.

Say anything that would disgrace my sister's reputation.'"

"...Today, your task is to get rid of these people. If you can't do it, don't try to take advantage of my sister. Remember not to say anything that will damage my sister's reputation." Bai Jinyan pretended to be mature half an hour ago.

He patted Xie Xingyun on the shoulder and said, "Work hard."

Xie Xingyun: "..."

Bai Jinyan had a headache. His sister's popularity was also a problem. Once he arrived, he knew how many people in Kyoto were interested in his sister...

Bai Xianyu wanted to get married by himself at first because he was afraid of being granted a marriage by the emperor. Now that his eldest brother has been granted the title of Marquis and will move into the Marquis's mansion soon, countless bureaucrats in Kyoto have started to think about it, and how many of them are sincere.

Looking at Xie Xingyun who was doing everything with ease, Bai Xianyu's heartbeat suddenly went out of order, and she subconsciously took a step forward.

Lu Zhu quickly grabbed her, "Miss, what are you doing?"

Bai Xianyu came back to her senses and looked at Lu Zhu with a confused expression. At that moment, she actually wanted to throw herself into Xie Xingyun's arms in front of everyone.

Fortunately, Luzhu caught her.

These days, she seemed to have neglected Xie Xingyun a little because of the messy thoughts in her mind. He still came every day, but he never kissed her again, and his hugs were very restrained.

Bai Xianyu lowered her eyelids. Was she suspicious?

The first time she ate pastries made by Xie Xingyun was on the eve of her departure to Jiangnan. She also ate pastries made by him on the ship. Her first heart attack was also on the ship. She had connected these things before, maybe

Yes, seasickness is the cause of heart attack.

Thinking of the plate of pastries that she threw away, Bai Xianyu felt even more guilty.

…

It was dusk again when Xie Xingyun arrived at Bai Xianyu's yard.

As soon as I came in, I saw many dishes placed in the yard, as well as several plates of exquisite pastries, which were steaming hot.

The girl propped up her chin and twitched her eyelids from time to time. After seeing him clearly, Bai Xianyu yawned lazily, curved her lips and said with a smile, "Here he comes."
