Chapter 341: secret meeting
Chapter 341 Secret Meeting
Old Madam Bai and Madam Bai kept their regular schedule as much as possible, so as not to let the eyeliner in the house see the clues because of anxiety.
Mrs. Bai returned to her room. She was the only one left in the room until she sat in front of the dressing table after washing. Then she carefully took out the purse that she had hidden away for a closer look.
Familiar fabrics, familiar patterns, familiar stitches, and even the place where she accidentally sewed it crookedly and then patched it with two stitches are exactly the same as in her impression.
Madam Bai carried the bag around and finally returned to the purse in her hand, crying silently but fiercely alone.
Different from the situation where she seldom had a peaceful sleep after crying enough, the old lady Bai had a calm face, but kept her eyes open until dawn by herself at night.
When they met again the next day, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had dark circles under their eyes, and walnut eyes swollen to the other.
Madam Bai asked, mother, did you sleep well last night? Why do you have dark circles?
Old lady Bai asked back, daughter-in-law, did you cry secretly by yourself last night? Why are your eyes so swollen?
Looking at each other again, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law continued to act tacitly.
Ms. Bai said embarrassingly, she saw similar purses and amulets. The daughter-in-law was worried about Qingzhi and Honger, so she couldn't hold back and cried secretly for a while.
Old lady Bai patted her daughter-in-law's hand, sighed and agreed, let alone you, I am an old woman who has lived for more than 60 years, and I went to the battlefield when I was young. Now it is not because I am worried that my children and grandchildren will not be able to sleep.
Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, you hold my arm and I hold your hand. It seems that you are comforting each other, but in fact, it is Mrs. Bai who stuffed the small purse in her hand from an angle that no one noticed. The mother-in-law who has grown up but is still flexible in her hands and feet.
She has already read the small scroll in her purse, and now it's her mother-in-law, Mrs. Bai, to read it.
After Old Madam Bai had read it and made up her mind, Madam Bai could go to meet Ye Anlan at the appointed place and give her a definite reply.
This time, Ye Anlan waited for two full days. Until the evening of the next day, Ye Anlan went to the street to buy vegetables with a basket on her shoulders as before, and then she passed by Wen Liuniang. , I heard the news of the "reply letter" from the Hou Mansion.
The "reply letter" is not a letter, but Miss Bai, the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion, ordered a lake-blue sixteen-piece Xiang skirt for herself at the embroidery shop where Wen Liuniang worked, according to Ye Anlan's request.
According to Ye Anlan's request, this skirt was specified to be made by Liang Yue, Wen Liuniang, who is also known as Wen Liangyue.
Wen Liuniang received this list, on behalf of Mrs. Bai, she agreed to meet her at the address Mrs. Bai gave Ye Anlan in three days.
The two passed by each other, like countless strangers on the street who didn't care about each other, not at all inconspicuous, not at all strange.
Then, on the appointed day with Mrs. Bai, Ye Anlan sent two of her personal guards to work in the jewelry store for her and Zheng Fengshou.
The faces of these two personal guards were the faces that Ye Anlan asked Wen Liuniang to show for her and Zheng Fengshou before.
They are similar in stature to the two, and they memorize the people they met and the things they met in the jewelry shop every day. They even secretly observed the jewelry shop in the dark under Ye Anlan's hint. Shopkeepers, buddies, guards.
After doing so much, Ye Anlan wanted to free herself and Zheng Fengshou to do other things at any time.
In order to get ahead of time, Ye Anlan went out two hours earlier than the agreed time. She and Zheng Fengshou drove a mule cart out of the city gate in rags.
The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate didn't care about the people who left the city, and they didn't see anything worth checking in their empty mule carts. The officers and soldiers waved their hands impatiently, signaling these two poor ghosts to get out of here quickly, don't get in the way. road.
Ye Anlan and Zheng Fengshou are big-hearted people, and neither of them minded the bad attitude of the city guards. Zheng Fengshou drove the mule cart, and the mules trotted out of the city gate.
The Zhuangzi where Mrs. Bai and Ye Anlan made an appointment to meet each other is about fifty miles away from the capital. The Zhuangzi occupies a small area, and there is a simple earth temple next to it that the nearby villagers occasionally go to worship.
Ye Anlan and Zheng Fengshou's current attires are not eye-catching in this direction.
They drove the mule cart to the earth temple, and then took advantage of no one around, drove the mule cart into the mountain depression behind the temple and hid it.
There is a small piece of forest in the valley, because it is full of weeds, there is no property, and it is far away from the surrounding villages, so few people have been here.
Before, some of Ye Anlan's people who stayed outside the city came here immediately to survey the terrain after receiving the task that Ye Anlan sent out in advance.
They even visited Mrs. Bai's Zhuangzi before she came over.
When Ye Anlan and Zheng Fengshou arrived here at the appointed time, the dozen or so Ye's personal guards immediately took out the simple topographical map they worked together to draw.
The team leader led by told Ye Anlan about the surrounding topography and landforms, and then told the news about the Bai family that everyone had inquired about during this period of time.
Finally, he reported to Ye Anlan the personnel structure in Mrs. Bai's team.
Inquiring so comprehensively, it can be seen that they really put their heart into it. Ye Anlan was very pleased, and she praised their ability to handle things.
The faces of more than a dozen of Ye's personal guards surrounding her and Zheng Fengshou suddenly glowed. They looked at Ye Anlan eagerly, and some of them were impatient, so they directly offered to recommend themselves, "Girl, just ask us to do whatever you want, We will make it beautiful and proper for you."
Ye Anlan smiled and looked around at the dozen or so Ye's bodyguards who were nodding in unison, "Don't worry, if it wasn't something I had to do personally, I would definitely not forget to command you."
After hearing this, the Ye family's personal guards immediately understood that they couldn't win this matter today.
Regret is of course regrettable, but they wisely did not continue to volunteer.
After Ye Anlan and Zheng Fengshou left, the team leader left two people to guard in the forest, and he personally led the rest of the people to ambush outside the Zhuangzi, ready to meet Ye Anlan and the others at any time.
Ye Anlan was ignorant of the enthusiasm of her own guards, so she sneaked into Zhuangzi at night and found Mrs. Bai who had been waiting for a long time.
Madam Bai came to this village under the banner of checking the accounts, and she couldn't stay here for too long. After seeing Ye Anlan, she went straight to the village, and immediately asked Ye Anlan why she would venture to Beijing to help them.
When Ye Anlan heard Mrs. Bai say this, she knew that Mrs. Bai must have realized the embarrassing situation of the Bai family.
She asked Mrs. Bai, "You already know that Hou Ye received funding from various rebels?"
