I saw a few little boys on the opposite side of the lake, running and playing wildly by the lake, chasing each other.

It turns out that the lake is connected to the front yard, and you can go directly to the front yard by walking through the pavilion in the center of the lake.

"Third sister!"

One of the little boys on the opposite side saw Qi Ruohan here, waved and shouted towards this side, and then ran over the wooden bridge over the water towards this side.

Bai Jintong became alert.

She can't swim, and even if she could, it's impossible for her to jump into the water to save people in the middle of winter. If she does, she might end up dying herself.

After watching for a while to see which child was about to fall into the water and thinking about how to rescue the person, I saw a small wooden boat under the waterside pavilion.

"what--"

"thump!"

Bai Jintong was on high alert and staring closely at the children over there. She saw clearly that a little boy pushed the little boy who was running in front of him hard and pushed him into the water.

How can he be so bad at such a young age!

In this cold winter, the child was rescued at the first opportunity and probably fell ill.

The servants who were running behind the children were also frightened when they saw their master fall into the water.

Two of them jumped into the water without caring about anything.

But this lake is for planting lotus, and the bottom is all mud. If you fall in, not to mention children, even adults may not be able to get out of the water.

When Qi Ruohan saw this, his face turned pale, he covered his chest with his hands, and he almost panicked.

She thought, don’t panic, don’t panic, and said to her mother and the maid behind her, “Go down and save them!”

Bai Jintong next to her had already rushed out, shouting as she ran, "Hurry up and get the long bamboo pole and the rope!"

The maids and old women who were originally in a panic, also wanted to jump in and rescue their master, but they estimated that their chances of surviving that day were slim because none of them could float on water.

But after hearing Bai Jintong's instructions, they all felt more confident.

There was an old woman who knew that there was a rope inside the water pavilion, which was used to tie up the small wooden boat, so she ran over quickly, entered the water pavilion and found the rope.

At this time, Bai Jintong had already boarded the small boat. Wanwan couldn't possibly watch her young lady take the risk alone, so she followed closely on the boat.

The master and servant were paddling with their hands at this moment.

"The longer the bamboo pole, the better!"

Bai Jintong saw that there was no oar and she wouldn't know how to row even if there was one, so she could only use a bamboo pole.

"I will go find it right away!"

Damn, there's none here right now.

It is only available in summer and is used to pick lotus pods and lotus leaves.

There are no lotus pods or lotus leaves in winter, so the small wooden boat cannot be used, and where would the bamboo poles come from?

"Then throw the rope down quickly and let them grab it, then find another rope and drag me over there."

Bai Jintong saw that the child was about to sink to the bottom, so he had to hurry over to pull him up.

The maids and old women understood what she meant, and two of them ran to throw the rope.

"Young Master, grab the rope! Grab it!"

Fortunately, someone found a rope, threw one end to Bai Jintong and the others, and used the other end to pull the child towards the water.

The boat arrived near the children who fell into the water, and the people looking for the bamboo pole also arrived.

There was a great confusion, and the young master who had fallen into the water and his two servants were all pulled onto the small wooden boat.

"Ding! Mission completed, martial arts mastery obtained, three points, please check!"

Bai Jintong almost grinned when she heard that the reward this time was really for mastering martial arts.

But now is not the right time to laugh, so I held it back.

I don't know what the difference is between this martial arts proficiency and my brother's eighteen martial arts.

But as long as it’s about martial arts, I’m very happy. I got three more points. It’s another fruitful day!

It’s a pity that the clothes on my body are stained with mud from the river bottom. It will probably be difficult to wash them off.

She said that it was not suitable for her to wear new clothes when going out, as she would ruin each new dress she wore.

At this time, the adults in the front yard who had received the news also rushed over.

The young master was supported by two loyal servants, but he didn't even drink a sip of water and was quite frightened.

After the two servants were rescued to the shore, one fainted and the other drank a bellyful of water and was not feeling well.

Fortunately, the two servants have done a great job in saving the master, and they will find a doctor to treat and take care of them.

Mrs. Qi, who rushed over after hearing the news, almost fainted. It was her youngest son who fell into the water.

When he learned that it was Bai Jintong who saved his son again, he almost knelt down to her.

Bai Jintong was so frightened that she couldn't bear it even if she could.

"Madam, you can't do that. Anyone who sees this will reach out for help."

"Good girl, don't call me Madam, call me Aunt!

Mom, quickly take Miss Bai downstairs and change her into clean clothes, and serve her well!"

Mrs. Qi saw that her son was fine, just a little frightened, and there were still many things waiting for her in the front and back yards.

She couldn't just leave the people who came to the banquet at the mansion today alone, but she would also investigate the matter of her son falling into the water thoroughly. She knew that her son was not so reckless.

"Sister Bai, please go to my yard to change. I happen to have two new sets of clothes that I haven't worn yet. You and I are about the same size, so they should be suitable."

Qi Ruohan watched Bai Jintong rush over and try to find a way to save his brother.

If she hadn't been there, I don't know what would have happened to my brother when they rescued him.

She was truly grateful to Bai Jintong, as she had saved her and her brother's lives.

At this moment, she sincerely wanted to treat Bai Jintong as her own sister, so she offered all the clothes she was going to wear when entering the palace without any regret.

Bai Jintong washed and changed her clothes, and when she came out she found that Little Potato had also come. He was wearing the birthday gift she had given him yesterday - the Baifu Yi.

She thought that the little girl was young, and it was New Year's Day so it had to be festive, so she embroidered a bright red one for the little Potato.

Even the one hundred Chinese characters for "Fu" on the clothes are embroidered with dark patterns using silk threads of the same color. Under the sunlight, different angles will reflect different Chinese characters for "Fu", which is very beautiful.

It fits little Potato very well, making him look as cute and pretty as the little girl under the seat of Guanyin.

Bai Jintong just greeted Little Potato with a smile and saw that she was very well behaved. Sure enough, she discovered that Princess Shu was also there not far away.

It was not until Princess Na Shu was pulled away by the other ladies to talk that Little Potato came running over and hugged Bai Jintong's legs.

"Sister, Shengsheng misses you so much!"

Nan Sheng held her hand for a long time before letting go and turning around in front of everyone.

"Is Shengsheng dressed nicely today? Is she beautiful?"

"It's gorgeous! It's really beautiful!"

No one said it was not beautiful, and it was indeed very beautiful.

But Nan Shengle's little mouth was bent so hard that she couldn't close it.

"This is a gift from my sister, you don't have it!

This is double-sided embroidery!"

Nan Sheng is showing off.

Originally, she didn't know what embroidery was, but she insisted on wearing it today. When the Grand Princess saw it, she praised it a lot and explained to her what double-sided embroidery was.

Everyone really admired her dress. The workmanship was excellent, but the most outstanding feature was the pattern on the dress.

Princess Le Hui was originally a little girl, and her clothes were small, so embroidering a hundred Chinese characters for "Fu" on her was a very difficult job.

What's more, each character of "Fu" in Baifu has a different font. The characters are embroidered in small sizes, and each character is embroidered vividly, which is a test of the embroidery skills and not something that ordinary people can do.

Seeing Princess Le Hui lift up the hem of her dress for people to see, it was even more astonishing to see that she was embroidered on both sides!

It is no exaggeration to say that this dress is priceless!

However, what surprised them even more was that the little princess said that the dress was given to her by Bai Jintong, and many people did not quite believe it.

Isn’t the Bai family very poor?

How could one possibly afford such an expensive gift?
