Vol 3 Chapter 481: gesture

Moonlight is like water, and the sound of waterfalls is endless. Although Qi Ning has already been psychologically prepared, he is still a little surprised in hearing Xiang Baiying.
Suddenly, many questions in Qi Ning's mind became clear instantly.
Xiang Baiying is a beggar gang leader, and Qi Ning has not heard of any intersection between this person and Jin Yihou. It all made Qi Ning unable to figure it out. At this time, I heard Xiang Baiying and Liu Suyi had a connection, and I immediately understood it.
"Your mother-in-law was not yet twenty years old." Xiang Baiying said with a smile: "I still remember that she was under the Zhuo Qingyang Gate of Qionglin Academy. She just came home from the Academy that day and saw me lying on the road. The drunken man in the snow, hey, I did n’t trim it at the time, but I fell on the street like a flower. In fact, every winter, there are not many people who freeze to death on the street. "
Qi Ning said: "She saw you lying on the snow, so she saved you?"
"When I woke up, I was already lying in an inn." Xiang Baiying recalled: "After waking up, I asked the shopkeeper in the inn what was going on. The shopkeeper told me that it was Miss Liu Shilang's family. Take me to the inn. "Smile said:" I owe such a big favor, I will report to Baiying for gratitude, and naturally I want to thank her. "
"What happened then?" Qi Ning asked quickly: "Have you seen her?"
Xiang Baiying said: "Naturally I saw her. After all, she is a girl in the boudoir. I am not good to find her in person, so I entrusted someone to give her a generous gift. She came back with a picture of her own. Do you know what it is? "
Qi Ning shook his head and smiled to Baiying: "The picture is a snowy weather. A pig is lying on the snow, and beside the pig, a big wine tank is also painted."
Qi Ning stunned, and then laughed dumbly, thinking that Liu Suyi's painting was of course ridiculing Xiang Baiying not only as a drunk, but also as drunk as a dead pig, which was really naughty.
Xiang Baiying said: "Your mother-in-law has done a great job in drawing, but it's a pity that painting, because I drew that picture, hahaha, I was a little bit familiar with qinqi, calligraphy, painting and calligraphy. A picture was sent back, explaining that I was fighting with the beggars, so I was drunk on the street. "
Qi Ning thought that this talented person was really different. When he communicated, he used words to spread the word.
"In the next few days, your mother-in-law talked to me like this. Since she saved my life, I naturally wanted to make things clear to her." Xiang Baiying smiled: "I remember that afternoon, I was in a family The tavern was drinking, and suddenly saw a young man come to sit opposite me. At that time, I like to be alone, and do not trim, suddenly there is such a handsome young man with good skin and tender skin sitting opposite me, you say weird? "
"Uncle Xiang, wouldn't that handsome young man be my lady dressed as a man?" Qi Ning asked with a smile.
When he saw Baiying mentioning the trip, he always had a smile on his face. He seemed to be in a good mood. He wanted to hurt Baiying. If he could maintain a happy mood, it would only be good for his injury. In addition, Qi Ning is extremely curious about Liu Suyi's affairs. Finally, he can get some information from Xiang Baiying's mouth. Naturally, he wants to know more.
Xiang Baiying smiled: "Yes, she is dressed as a man, I knew it at a glance, and I knew she was your mother at the time." After a little thought, I slowly said: "Although I know it is her at a glance. , But one of her butlers, the lady who ran down the street to see me, still surprised me. "
"My mother would never want to fight a bar with you?"
Xiang Baiying shook his head: "Your mother doesn't like alcoholics, she came to me, she wanted to persuade me to stop drinking."
"Uncle Xiang is still drinking, and my mother naturally did not persuade success."
Shaking his head to Baiying: "You are wrong. Your mother did let me stop drinking, but there are worms in my belly, where can I promise, but your mother is smart and kind, I wanted to worship her as a brother and sister, you mother It ’s also refreshing, I did n’t look down on me, and promised to marry me, but she was going to be an elder sister, and I needed to be his younger brother.
Having said this, he laughed and said:
I ’m older than her, he actually I really want to be my sister. "
"What happened then?"
"But your mother-in-law is my life-saving benefactor, and I am not good at refusing it directly." Xiang Baiying said: "Your mother-in-law has made an idea for me to compare her painting skills with her. She added a condition. If she wins, I will not be able to drink alcohol from now on.
Shaking his head:
If the wine is not dripping, of course I ca n’t agree, but your mother is already prepared, she knows to let me It is impossible to quit drinking completely, so I have prepared a wine bag and let me promise that if she wins, from now on, you can only have one bag of wine a day at most. If you drink more than one drop, it is not a hero or a big man. "
Qi Ning froze, took the wine bag, and saw the wine bag made of cowhide. Although it was still very strong, it was very old. It was obviously used for many years. Without asking, Xiang Baiying has said: "You The wine bag in her hand was the one she gave me that year, and it was something I kept around. "Speaking of which, the expression looked sad.
Qi Ning nodded slightly and asked, "Uncle Xiang's painting skills are not as good as my mother?"
"In fairness, although your mother's painting skills are good, but compared with me, it is still inferior." Xiang Baiying sighed: "I am young and vigorous, and I want to compare your mother with a girl movie. Skill, of course, is undoubtedly a win, so she agreed to her condition. She proposed that she have the test questions, I think she is younger than me, let her be, and I think the final comparison is painting skills, no matter what tricks she plays , I will never lose to her. "
In fact, Qi Ning already knew that the result of this competition was, of course, Liu Suyi's victory, but since Xiang Baiying had a higher painting skill than Liu Suyi, how did Liu Suyi win?
After making a mouthful to Baiying, he signaled Qi Ning to give him some water and took a sip of water before continuing: "At that time, there were seven or eight people in the small wine shop. They all came to see the fun. Your mother said that I and her Draw a picture, draw a portrait, and see who draws more like it, commented by the people present, who draws more like some, and who is the winner. "
"Who do you want to paint?" Qi Ning asked.
Xiang Baiying glared: "Who are you talking about? She even wanted to paint with my appearance!"
"Ah?" Qi Ning stunned, and then couldn't help laughing.
"No wonder the little girl made a weird rule about what to sit with her face to face, except for a piece of paper and a pen, you must not use anything else, you think about it, she sits opposite me and sees my appearance It ’s clear, I and I ca n’t use the mirror, how do I know how I look?
Xiang Baiying did n’t have a good air:
From the beginning, your mother set a trap, let me drill in, and I went She was deceived. "
Qi Ning laughed, thinking that Liu Suyi was really smart and naughty. He knew that a person might have a rough impression of his appearance, but he wanted to paint in a freehand way and wanted to draw his own appearance from imagination. But the most difficult things are often the things around them, the easier it is for people to ignore.
"So Uncle Xiang has been my mother's sworn brother since then." Qi Ning laughed: "Since that day, you will drink with this wine bag?"
Xiang Baiying sighed: "Who said no. At the beginning, there was only a bag of wine every day. It was really not a habit, but the man's big husband, saying everything like a mountain, naturally couldn't regret it." After a pause, he smiled: " If I win that game, you must call me to Uncle, not Uncle. "
Qi Ning did not expect Liu Suyi to have such a relationship with Xiang Baiying. The strangest thing for him was why Liu Suyi would later become a taboo in Jinyihou Mansion. He never lost the opportunity to ask: "Uncle Xiang, my mother is married. At that time, did you also participate? "
Xiang Baiying said: "I and your mother were my sister-in-law, she was married, I naturally wanted to participate, but hey ~ EbookFREE.me ~ That time I happened to get rid of a big wicked person, I failed to catch up At the wedding, you can only send someone a generous gift, but I am a bit sorry for your mother. But I promise to your mother that when she gives birth to her first child, I will definitely arrive. "
"Then you arrived later?" Qi Ning asked quickly.
When I applied to Baiying, I was sad and said with a bitter smile: "When your mother was pregnant, she was always in Jinyihou Mansion. Jinyihou Mansion did not allow anyone to see her. Although I wanted to enter the government, I never looked at it. What kind of friendship do you have with Jinyihou Mansion? "After a pause, you said:" Your mother is everyone's boudoir. I had a bad reputation with Baiying on the rivers and lakes at the time, so I was her sister-in-law and I knew very little. She can't spoil her reputation. "
Qi Ning nodded slightly and asked, "Uncle Xiang, besides, how much do you know about my mother?"
"I was drifting around the rivers and lakes at that time. For the first two years, I went to see your mother once or twice a year to talk with her about qinqi, calligraphy and painting. Later, I gave Feng Jian Mountain Villa to Brother Lu, and I was confused. Help, things are busy, so there will be less. "Xiang Baiying slowly said:" I remember the year when I left Fengjian Mountain Villa, it was when your mother was pregnant with you, so I went to the capital specially, but there was no Seeing your mother. Originally I wanted to wait and see after you were born, but when I said this, I smiled and shook my head: "It's a pretty girl, the news from Jinyihou Mansion, because your mother is weak, after giving birth to you , That's it! "The voice choked, but it was no longer possible.
Qi Ning horrifiedly said: "You mean you mean my mother already?"
Xiang Baiying's eyes turned red and nodded slightly: "It is said that when your mother gave birth to you, the mother and child could not be saved. Although they later saved you, your mother died because of the difficult birth." : "So your mother gave her life in order to keep you safe."
