Chapter 340
"Don't tell others about this." Mrs. Bai lowered her voice and reminded her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, "We cannot bring disaster to the family."
The two white girls nodded together, but Mrs. Bai asked in a low voice, "No Yuan'er..."
Mrs. Bai shook her head, "It's not okay for Yuan'er. He is still young and can't hide things in his heart."
The Yuaner in the two of them was Bai Qingzhi's youngest son. He was nine years old this year. Although he was precocious, he was still young. Mrs. Bai dared not bet on whether he was strict enough.
She said to Mrs. Bai: "We have already touched the nails at home over the years. The child will come tomorrow. You can find a way to transfer the two in my yard to another place."
Mrs. Bai nodded, "My daughter-in-law understands."
It just so happened that their mansion would prepare thick cotton coats for the servants. Tomorrow, she could ask the maids and mothers at home to measure the size in batches in the needle and thread room.
Thinking up a way to open the eyeliner, Mrs. Bai was full of anticipation and anxiety. She helped Mrs. Bai and took her two daughters out of the dark room located inside the small Buddhist temple.
This small Buddhist temple with a dark room was built by the old lady of the Bai family when the Marquis' Mansion was just rewarded to the Bai family. The dark room was hidden and there was a secret door at the bottom. Behind the secret door was an underground corridor leading to the outside of the mansion.
This is a retreat left by the ancestors of the Bai family for the descendants of the Bai family. Walking out along the underground corridor, you can directly reach a small house in the second place under the name of the Bai family.
Since the house was bought by the ancestor of the Bai family, it has always been in the hands of the mistress with the highest seniority and status in the family.
Because the location is neither good nor bad, and the area is not large or small, the house is not eye-catching in a Duke's house like the Bai family.
It has been passed down from generation to generation as a relic. To this day, except for Mrs. Bai, Mrs. Bai, and other people in the Bai family don’t even know that this house they didn’t even see at all, was their escape transfer station.

The next evening, Ye Anlan rushed into the Marquis of Weiping's Mansion with a piece of folded yellow paper before the Bai family had supper.
The servant who led her way was replaced. He was no longer the taciturn person yesterday, but a round face, who looked very kind.
This guy is also more talkative than the one before. She took Ye Anlan to the second gate and kept talking Ye Anlan's words with a smile.
Ye Anlan knew it well and showed off his acting skills with the round-faced servant lady on the spot.
The round-faced servant plays a charitable middle-aged woman who cares for the little girl. She is a bit talkative, but she is enthusiastic, kind, frank and sincere, and has no bad intentions.
Ye Anlan plays a silly, careless, honest and honest silly Baishen.
The round-faced servant was afraid of Ye Anlan's restrained and fearfulness, and used the name of chatting to make Ye Anlan's words, Ye Anlan performed with gratitude as he spoke all the silly sister who knew everything and said everything.
In the end, the round-faced servant got his wish and saw the "yellow paper" sent by Ye Anlan to the Hou's mansion.
"Yellow Paper" is also a peace talisman, but it is obviously not the peace talisman that Mrs. Bai asked for from Cangyun Temple outside the city.
Not only the servants who were in the marquis's mansion like the round-faced servant, but even the servants of other powerful families in the capital knew that Mrs. Bai had always only gone to the extremely small temple in Cangyun Temple to seek peace.
The reason for such concentration and consistency is very simple - the previous host of Cangyun Temple once saved the life of the deceased Old Marquis Bai when he was traveling to the northern border.
Since then, the Bai family has started donating incense and oil to Cangyun Temple every year, and went to Cangyun Temple every year to seek peace talismans.
As the saying goes, the subordinates must follow what the superior likes, so the servants of the Bai family often go to Cangyun Temple to seek peace.
Baiyun Temple is a small temple. Even with the care of the Marquis of Weiping, the incense has remained unhealthy over the years.
Therefore, the peace talisman that was presided over by Cangyun Temple was not a rare item that was hard to find. Even if it was just an ordinary citizen or a slave of a wealthy family, as long as you can take out enough incense money, you can ask for a copy from Cangyun Temple.
The round-faced servant also asked for the peace talisman that had been opened by the Cangyun Temple. She didn't have to open the one from Ye Anlan to see, and she knew that it was not the peace talisman from Cangyun Temple.
After confirming that this peace talisman had nothing to do with Bai Qingzhi, the round-faced servant immediately accelerated his pace without any trace.
Ye Anlan pretended to be unaware of anything, put away the peace talisman, and continued to follow the round-faced servant lady towards the second door.
The familiar face of Ye Anlan was guarding the second gate. The oldest gatekeeper among them asked the round-faced servant in surprise, "Why did you bring someone here? Where is Sister Qing?"
The round-faced servant replied with a smile: "Sister-in-law Qing has something to do at home, so I asked me to take care of her for the afternoon's errand."
The servant who was guarding the gate was without doubt, and he was separated and took Ye Anlan to see Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Bai.
Mrs. Bai did not let Ye Anlan wait for a long time this time. Although she was still burning incense, she asked the maid around her to invite Ye Anlan directly to the small Buddhist temple.
The light in the small Buddhist temple was dim, and Mrs. Bai had the habit of not letting the servants keep it when burning incense. So when Ye Anlan walked into the small Buddhist temple, there were only Mrs. Bai, who were not real in the Buddhist temple.
Ye Anlan stepped forward and took the opportunity to take the peace talisman from her, and quickly stuffed a purse containing a small roll of paper into Mrs. Bai's hand.
Mrs. Bai raised her hand, and from the movements it seemed that she wanted to put the peace talisman under the lamp to take a closer look, but in fact, it was to let the purse that Ye Anlan stuffed over slip into her cuffs smoothly.
"No." After carefully identifying it, Mrs. Bai returned the peace talisman to Ye Anlan with regret, and then asked someone to bring her a small satin purse embroidered with forsythia.
The purse is exactly the same as the one that Ye Anlan got before, and even the silver peanuts contained in it are of the same style and quality.
Ye Anlan thanked Mrs. Bai, said goodbye to Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Bai, and then sent it out by the servants of the Marquis of Weiping's Mansion.
No one knew that when he was handing over the peace talisman, Mrs. Bai also stuffed a folded small note to Ye Anlan.
There is an address written on the note, which is where Mrs. Bai’s dowry Zhuangzi is located.
The purse that Ye Anlan gave to Mrs. Bai was the one she got from Bai Qingzhi, embroidered by Mrs. Bai himself.
After Ye Anlan left, only Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Bai were left in the Buddhist temple.
Mrs. Bai didn't say much, she pinched Mrs. Bai's hand, and then the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went back to Mrs. Bai's house for dinner.
After dinner, Mrs. Bai served Mrs. Bai to wash and change clothes again, and watched the little maid pinch the shoulders and massage the back of Mrs. Bai.
