Although autumn has already begun, this year’s autumn tigers seem to be more powerful than those in previous years. Until the beginning of the eighth lunar month, the weather was still extremely hot.
The cicadas chirping on the trees never stop, making the noisy people upset. On such a hot day, who doesn’t want to stay indoors and cool down? But there are some people who are restless themselves and don’t want others to be peaceful!
"Caixing, I want to drink mung bean soup."
Bai Yanqing was lying on the table, looking listless!
It's too hot today. It's hard for Bai Yanqing to feel energetic even if she doesn't drink some iced mung bean soup to cool down!
"Don't even think about it! Miss, you are disobedient again! The doctor said, you can't eat cold things! These mung beans are cold in nature, so you can't eat them! It took you a few days to nourish your intestines and stomach. It's better, my slave, you won't let you abuse yourself anymore!"
Caixing rejected Bai Yanqing's request in one breath and muttered to her. A few days ago, Cai Xing could still remember Bai Yanqing's appearance of vomiting and almost collapse! Pian Bai Yanqing doesn't have a long memory. When it gets hot, she wants to eat something cold!
Just as Bai Yanqing was about to reply, someone from the maid in the front yard over there hurried over!
"Miss, it's not good!"
The maid shouted while running, staggered and almost fell, but she didn't care and ran straight to Bai Yanqing, then knelt down with a thud.
"You're so reckless! What's wrong with the eldest lady? Our lady is fine!"
Caixing is most jealous of these maids, who have no control over their words. Isn't this a curse on her young lady?
"Sister Caixing, I'm a quick talker! I didn't mean that! What I meant was, that...that...that concubine, that lady, is here again!"
The maid hurriedly explained to Cai Xing, and then reported to Bai Yanqing.
This maid must have run in a real hurry. Sweat was dripping down her hair. That little face was bright red, and I don’t know whether it was from the hot sun or from being anxious just now.
"What? She's here again? Can't she stay in the palace anymore? Why is she trying to run to our White House!"
Caixing was furious when he heard what the girl said! What's going on with Lai Feiyan? She doesn't want to wait in the palace. She has to run to the Bai Mansion every two days. When she comes, nothing good will happen! This Lai Feiyan, maybe she wants to find some trouble to bully the Bai family!
Bah, what a bad luck!
"Caixing, let this little girl go have a drink of water and rest first. Let's clean up and go meet this... Empress Li!"
Bai Yanqing stood up reluctantly, straightened her clothes, and went back into the room, combing her makeup unhurriedly without any sign of urgency on her face.
"By the way, where is the Li concubine resting now?"
Bai Yanqing turned around suddenly and shouted to the little girl in the courtyard.
"Go back to Miss Li, Concubine Li is resting in the front hall."
When the little girl saw Bai Yanqing turning around to call her, she was so frightened that she almost dropped the bowl in her hand.
"Don't panic, drink slowly. Don't be in a hurry, we'll be there in half an hour."
Bai Yanqing smiled at the little girl, told her to drink water slowly, and then walked slowly to the back room.
"Caixing, which outfit do you think looks better on me?"
Bai Yanqing pulled Cai Xing to help her choose clothes, without any sign of worry on her face.
"Miss, according to Caixing, this floral silk brocade dress is quite beautiful!"
Cai Xing held up the set of floral silk brocade dress with a smile on her face. This set was sent over by Bai Furong yesterday. It was made from the silk brocade that Bai Yanqing and Lai Bizhi picked out together a few days ago.
"You are indeed my Cai Xing! You are in the same place as me!"
Bai Yanqing raised her thumb and couldn't help but praise Cai Xing! Bai Yanqing wanted to choose this dress. For the time being, it can be considered as a battle robe!
The skirt is swaying! It not only loses the cuteness and innocence of a girl, but also adds a bit of elegance and elegance to a lady.
"Nothing can compare to the beauty of my lady!"
Cai Xing looked at the slim Bai Yanqing in front of him and couldn't help but praise him in a rude way!
Bai Yanqing looked at Cai Xing's appearance and laughed and joked that she had never seen the world!
"Let's go! Let's go meet that... Empress Libi!"
Bai Yanqing took Cai Xing and the little maid who came to report the news before, and walked to the front hall together.
Along the way, the little girl couldn't help but chatter a few more words, saying that because the master was busy with official duties and was away from the house, when she went back and forth to report to the eldest lady, someone also went to the old lady's yard to invite the old lady!
oh? Invite the old lady?
The Ren family has now semi-retired, and Bai Yanqing has taken over the management of most of the affairs in the house. All major family matters, no matter how big or small, will go through Bai Yanqing's hands first, and then some unimportant ones will be picked out and returned to. Ren family.
But today, someone actually made the decision without permission, and went to invite the Ren family first without reporting to Bai Yanqing?
"My eldest lady, please forgive me. It was not the slaves who went to invite the old lady on their own initiative. It was actually... that beautiful concubine, she... she had to ask the slaves to invite the old lady!"
The little maid spoke cautiously, fearing that she might offend the person in front of her.
oh? Did Lai Feiyan ask someone to specially invite the Ren family? This is a bit interesting. Didn't she look arrogant and look down on Ren before? Why are you rushing to find Ren now?
"Go, go to the next courtyard and invite Mrs. Bai and her daughter over!"
Bai Yanqing suddenly stopped and gave instructions to the little maid. When the little maid heard the words, she responded, then ran away without any hesitation!
Cai Xing looked at the little maid running away in a hurry, covered her mouth and laughed, this little girl is so funny! Is her lady so scary? Her young lady is obviously so cute and kind, so how could she make that little girl so scared?
Looking at the little maid running away, Bai Yanqing's gaze deepened. She subconsciously retracted her hand into her sleeve and pinched the letter inside the sleeve.
What is supposed to come will come sooner or later. However, Bai Yanqing didn't want Lai Feiyan's worries to come true so easily!
"Hey, I thought it was who was blocking the door of my White Mansion today. It turned out to be Empress Libi here! No wonder I feel that our White Mansion is so bright today! It's really so radiant. !」
Before Bai Yanqing reached the front hall, she heard harmonious laughter and laughter coming from far away in the hall. Ren's high-pitched voice was still the same as before. It could be seen that she was in front of her. These days, Lai Feiyan is so angry that she is bedridden? And what Lai Feiyan always does is to show off her voice, as if she is afraid that others will not know that she is now flying on the branch. The old and the young are really interesting!
"Sister, what are you talking about? Although I am relegated to the inner palace now, I still miss my days in the White Mansion from time to time, so I begged the emperor to come back to visit my grandmother when I have time! Don't let me because my sister has entered the palace. Palace, so I separated from my sister!"
Lai Feiyan is becoming more and more skillful in her speech now. If it had been in the past, she would not have bothered to get close to Bai Yanqing!
Sure enough, when people ask for something, they will bow their heads.
"When Empress Li is out of the palace, shouldn't she return to Jingzhou first and visit your family? If I remember correctly, Empress Li had already severed ties with the Bai family and invited herself to become a member of the Lai family!"
Regardless of whether she was polite or not, Bai Yanqing was too lazy to give her a good look. Why did she miss the Bai Mansion? When she came here before, she didn't look like this!
Bai Yanqing's words made Lai Feiyan feel awkward for a moment, and the smile on her face was obviously about to break out.
"Yan Qing, please stop being rude! In spite of her busy schedule, Concubine Li came home to visit us. Don't offend me by talking nonsense there!"
Ren opened her mouth at the right time and forcibly saved Lai Feiyan's face.
"Going home? Which home did Empress Libin return to? Empress Libin's home is in Lai's house in Jingzhou, not Bai's house in the capital!"
Just when Bai Yanqing was about to speak and choke back, a female voice sounded from outside. It was Bai Furong and her daughter who had arrived.
"Greetings to grandma."
It's Lai Bizhi. Today, Lai Bizhi is becoming more capable and confident. She has such a strong aura that even Bai Yanqing can't compare to her.
When she saw Bai Furong and her daughter coming over, Mrs. Ren had no choice but to shut up. Now, Mrs. Ren is still a little wary of Bai Furong and her daughter. After all, Bai Furong has established her own business, and now her property is in good order. She has no worries about food and clothing, and she always gives Ren some fresh and novel gadgets on weekdays. As the saying goes, people are soft-mouthed and short-handed when taking advantage of others, but Ren still knows this truth.
"Mother……"
Seeing Bai Furong coming, Lai Feiyan was shocked at first, then immediately adjusted her mood, holding back a few tears, looking pitiful.
"Empress Libin, you can't do it! You are trying to kill a common woman! As a grassroots woman, there is absolutely no way she can stand the sound of 'mother' from Empress Libin!" "
As a mother, how can you not love and protect your daughter? Although Bai Furong missed Lai Feiyan's daughter very much, her heart froze when she thought of her current behavior.
"If Concubine Li really misses my mother, she can go to my mother's room as soon as she leaves the palace. Why come to the White House and make such a fuss?"
As soon as Lai Bizhi spoke out, she directly pointed out the impure purpose of Lai Feiyan's trip. Even a fool can see that Lai Feiyan saw something that could be exploited by the Bai family, so she came to bother him! If not, why didn't she go to Bai Furong, her biological mother, instead of running to the Prime Minister's Mansion to reminisce about the past?
Lai Feiyan obviously didn't expect that in the past, her mother who loved her the most and her sister who always gave in to her and protected her would now be on the opposite side of her! She couldn't figure out why her mother and sister were now devoted to an outsider like Bai Yanqing?
"My sister's outfit today is really nice and tight! Isn't this material the same one we picked out together a few days ago? My mother is partial, saying that my piece has not been cut yet, and my sister's outfit is , but it was delivered first!"
Lai Bizhi took Bai Yanqing's arms affectionately, looked up and down many times, and couldn't help praising her! Although he was teasing Bai Furong for being partial in his words, his face was full of joy, and there was no trace of jealousy at all!
"Sister is making fun of me more and more now! Didn't I think the material looked so good that I urged my aunt to cut it for me first? Next time, I won't dare! Just hold on tight to my sister first, and then I'll pick out what she has left. That’s all!”
Bai Yanqing pouted her lips deliberately, looking so pitiful that Lai Bizhi didn't even notice!
In fact, Lai Bizhi didn't care at all that Bai Furong cut this dress for Bai Yanqing first. As her daughter, she still has many years to stay by Bai Furong's side, and Bai Yanqing...she will enter the palace soon. , where can we laugh and make fun again under the knees of the elders in the family like now? Besides, what Bai Yanqing gave to their mother and daughter was more than just the friendship of a set of clothes? That is the kindness of being reborn as a human being!
