Maybe it was because he hadn't had a good night's sleep in the past few days, or maybe he had been frightened at night. Bai Yanqing had a very uneasy sleep that night, always having nightmares, and she was so scared that she was sweating all over.
The next morning.
After Cai Xing called out repeatedly, Bai Yanqing opened her eyes leisurely.
"Star picking..."
Bai Yanqing's voice was hoarse, with exhaustion and forbearance in her voice.
"Miss, you are sick!"
Seeing this, Cai Xing knew that Bai Yanqing was sick again.
Bai Yanqing has not been in good health since she was a child. She is not tired or shocked. Cai Xing only thinks that she is so sick because she has not had a good rest in the past few days. How did she know what happened in Bai Yanqing's room last night!
"Caixing, please report this to the master and ask a doctor for you."
Cai Xing was anxious and was about to run out. However, Bai Yanqing grabbed him by the corner of his clothes.
"Go and report to the old lady."
Bai Yanqing closed her eyes weakly and didn't explain much.
Cai Xing didn't go into details, she knew that since her young lady spoke, she must have her own ideas.
In order to prevent Bai Yanqing from being left unattended, Cai Xing hurriedly called Lian'er in the courtyard and ordered her to reply to Mrs. Ren, while he stayed in the house to take care of Bai Yanqing.
But until noon, Lian'er didn't appear.
Now Cai Xing was a little anxious. Why did he go to reply to the doctor and not see anyone for several hours?
Caixing then immediately called Aunt Zhao and asked her to go and find out more.
Not long after, Aunt Zhao came back and replied: Lian'er accidentally broke the old lady's beloved tea cup, and was punished by the old lady to kneel in the courtyard.
"Then...does the old lady in the hospital know that the young lady is sick?"
Although Cai Xing knew what she was doing, she couldn't help but ask more questions. She knew better than anyone else that Mrs. Bai was probably deliberately embarrassing the young lady!
Seeing Aunt Zhao nodding her head in embarrassment, Cai Xing was so angry that he wanted to go to Ren's courtyard and tear her apart!
How can there be such a grandmother who doesn't care about her granddaughter's life or death?
"Caixing..."
Hearing Bai Yanqing's weak cry from inside the house, Cai Xing turned around in a panic and rushed towards the house.
Bai Yanqing tilted her head, coughed a few times, then took Cai Xing's hand and stood up with difficulty.
"Shower and change clothes."
It took some effort to shout these four simple words from the sick Bai Yanqing.
Although Cai Xing didn't know what Bai Yanqing was going to do, he still followed Bai Yanqing's instructions and prepared hot water and clean clothes for her.
A simple and elegant moon-white dress wrapped the sickly Bai Yanqing, making her face look increasingly pale and haggard.
How could Bai Yanqing not understand the meaning of Ren's gesture?
It was obvious that he was punishing Lian'er, but in fact he was grudged about the bed curtain and wanted to warn Bai Yanqing! With Bai Jingxuan's previous aggressive war, the Ren family could no longer openly make things difficult for Bai Yanqing. However, he secretly punished the people in Bai Yanqing's courtyard.
, not difficult.
"Go and find out when father will return home."
Bai Yanqing managed to steady herself, and then spoke calmly, asking Cai Xing to inquire about Bai Jingxuan's itinerary.
Bai Yanqing knew very well that with Ren's petty mind and vengeful temperament, she would never let go of the bed tent incident. Therefore, Bai Yanqing must put an end to her evil intentions so that she can no longer run rampant in the Bai Mansion!
After so many years, it’s time for the Ren family to rest and take care of themselves. This huge White House should have had a new person in charge of internal affairs!
Not long after, Cai Xing came back and answered.
It is said that the Prime Minister returned to the mansion in the morning and then went out to do some business. I asked the concierge and he said that the Prime Minister would probably not be able to return until dark in the evening.
It's getting dark? Then there's no rush. We have to wait for a few hours!
Although Bai Yanqing had some headaches and fever, it was not a serious illness. She was just frightened by last night. Fortunately, her appetite was okay. She drank some soup and felt a little more energetic, so she took Caixing to Ren's courtyard.
There were people on the way, and Bai Yanqing always leaned on the stars, looking weak and about to fall. She also inadvertently messed up a few strands of hair, making her look even more haggard.
Someone with good intentions came forward and wanted to help Cai Xing support Bai Yanqing, but Cai Xing stopped them all. He said: Miss is seriously ill, and she is afraid that she will pass on her illness to others.
Now, the entire Bai Mansion knew that Bai Yanqing was sick!
Bai Yanqing and Cai Xing walked for almost half an hour, a journey that was less than half a stick of incense!
When they arrived in front of Ren's courtyard, Bai Yanqing was not in a hurry to go in. She and Cai Xing stood in front of the courtyard for about half an hour, making sure that all the servants in the mansion could see it, and then she reluctantly moved in.
Of course, Mrs. Ren knew that Bai Yanqing was coming, but she deliberately made things difficult for Bai Yanqing, so even though her servants reported back, she did not pay attention and did not let Bai Yanqing hurry into the house.
"Greetings, grandma."
Bai Yanqing, who was supported by Cai Xing, still bowed respectfully to say hello when she saw Ren.
"Well, since you are sick, why did you come to my hospital? Why don't you have a good rest?"
Ren's opening played right into Bai Yanqing's wish.
"Yan Qing came to ask my grandmother to be kind and spare Lian'er. She damaged something of my grandmother's, and my granddaughter is here to pay for it."
Bai Yanqing only said that she came to beg Ren to forgive Lian'er, but she didn't answer a word of Ren's words about letting her rest, and acted as if she hadn't heard anything.
At this time, Bai Yanqing was standing in Ren's courtyard when she was talking to Ren. The courtyard door was wide open, and their conversation could be heard clearly by anyone passing by outside the courtyard.
As if it was specially displayed for Bai Yanqing to see, on the ground in the center of the courtyard was a porcelain tea cup with several broken pieces. Bai Yanqing glanced at it sideways, but it was just an ordinary celadon tea cup, not worth a few copper coins.
According to the past, this was just a few words of scolding and a deduction from the girl's monthly routine. Duan Duan would not have left the girl kneeling in the courtyard for such a long time.
Looking at Lian'er shivering in the courtyard, Bai Yanqing felt a little distressed. Looking at the faint blood stains under her thin dress, she thought that kneeling for so long had really caused her a lot of suffering.
Ren vented all her resentment towards Bai Yanqing on Lian'er, so naturally she would not be able to kneel comfortably. There were sharp stones and uneven ground. Ren specially picked those places with many stones to let Lian'er
Kneeling. After kneeling for so long, Lian'er's knees may need some rest.
Bai Yanqing first found a place to sit under the shade of a tree in Ren's courtyard with Cai Xing's support. After all, the sun was shining brightly on this summer afternoon!
Then, Bai Yanqing signaled Cai Xing to help Lian'er up. Sure enough, there were a lot of blood on Lian'er's dress at her knees. Bai Yanqing couldn't bear it, so she summoned an old woman who was watching the fun outside the courtyard and asked her to lift Lian'er up.
The son sent it back first.
"Wantless, who asked you to take that girl away without permission?"
Mrs. Ren obviously didn't care about Lian'er's life or death, she only wanted to show off to Bai Yanqing.
Seeing Bai Yanqing disobeying her and taking her away so easily, how could Mrs. Ren not hate her?
"It's just a worthless tea cup. Does grandma really want to kill someone before she is willing to give up?"
The dense shade of the trees covered part of the heat, and at the same time, it also covered away the anger on Bai Yanqing's body at that time.
She is not temperless, she just wants to save some face for Mr. Ren. Let her not do anything too extreme!
But how could the angry Ren family withstand Bai Yanqing's provocation? She was going to call someone right away, and called him "Family Law". So that she could teach this granddaughter who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth a lesson!
Family heirloom? Haha, interesting! It turns out that Mrs. Ren is waiting for her here!
Bai Yanqing just wanted to laugh, Ren was old after all! At this moment, her brain was probably steamed away by the hot summer?!
Bai Yanqing was not upset, she just sat and slowly spent time with Mr. Ren.
After all, she had learned a lesson from the bed tent incident. She was a little worried about the thunder and the rain. After passing down the family law for a long time, no one dared to actually come forward with a stick! Ren also took it as a warning.
I walked down the stairs without rushing!
But how could Bai Yanqing just let her go like this?
As another hour passed, the sky gradually became darker. Bai Yanqing guessed that Bai Jingxuan was about to return home, so she spoke again.
"Grandma, don't be upset. No matter what, today's mistakes are all my granddaughter's fault. I will apologize to you now."
After saying that, he stood up with some difficulty.
Cai Xing also had quick eyes and quick hands. He quickly stepped forward and held Bai Yanqing firmly.
Bai Yanqing weakly pushed Cai Xing a few times, then "popped" and knelt down in front of Ren.
This frightened Ms. Ren: What kind of trouble is this stinky girl trying to do? When did he say that he would punish her by kneeling down?
"Caixing, let's go and see if the family method is 'back'?"
Bai Yanqing meant something, especially emphasizing the word "come back".
Caixing understood instantly.
She hurriedly ran out of the courtyard, first to the gate, and repeatedly told the concierge that when the master came back, he must go to the old lady's courtyard. She also said that the old lady wanted to take care of the young lady, and the young lady was weak and could not bear it.
, I’m afraid that if the master comes back late, the young lady’s life will be lost!
Not to mention Bai Yanqing's current status in the family, the concierge did not dare to neglect the fact that she was the emperor's chosen princess! After all, if Bai Yanqing was really gone, the entire Bai Mansion would be affected!
After the concierge finished explaining, Cai Xing went to "inherit the family method" in a calm and unhurried manner! If she walked slower, her young lady would be able to hold on for a while longer.
Besides, in Furong Pavilion, Bai Furong, mother and daughter, were a little panicked when they heard that the Ren family wanted to pass down the family law to serve Bai Yanqing. After all, they were afraid that the matter would get worse and end badly. Now whether Lai Feiyan can enter the palace is up to her.
Rely on Bai Yanqing!
Both Bai Furong and Lai Bizhi understand this truth, but Lai Feiyan, who is obsessed with trying to rectify Bai Yanqing, doesn't understand!
With excitement on her face, Lai Feiyan pulled her sister Lai Bizhi and her mother Bai Furong to Ren's yard! She didn't want to miss such a good show!
When they arrived, the only people they saw were Bai Yanqing kneeling on the ground and Ren sitting on a high chair beside her.
"Mother, this..."
Bai Furong was a little hesitant, not sure whether to plead for Bai Yanqing or not.
"She wants to kneel by herself, let her kneel!"
Ms. Ren was still angry at the moment, so she couldn't care less. Since this girl took the initiative to seek punishment today, how could Mr. Ren let her go?
"I heard from my servant that sister Yan Qing is ill today, and I wanted to go with Fei Yan to have a look."
Lai Bizhi, who had always been reticent, spoke up for the first time.
After all, she was smart, and she immediately brought up the matter of Bai Yanqing's illness. Perhaps she was a little afraid of Mrs. Ren, so she did not directly persuade Mrs. Ren. Instead, she used the matter of Bai Yanqing's illness to wake up Mrs. Ren.
Tell her that Bai Yanqing is sick and it is not appropriate to go through such trouble.
Bai Yanqing's lowered head shook slightly.
She knew that among the Lai sisters, Lai Feiyan lacked brains, while Lai Bizhi lacked courage!
