Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Green Pearl was scooping water for Bai Xianyu when she replied, “Got it.”
Bai Xianyu’s fingers brushed across the surface of the water, and ripples spread from her fair fingertips. “You came here so early in the morning to kick up a big fuss and attribute blame, Grandmother must be very angry.”
“That’s right. Miss, I forgot to tell you yesterday. The servant in charge of the store told me yesterday that Old Madam wanted to get someone to go to your store to get something yesterday afternoon, but she was rejected. It’s said that she lost her temper at Longevity Hall for the entire day.”
Bai Xianyu slowly closed her eyes. Her face was like peach blossoms and plums, and she looked indescribably charming. Even Green Pearl’s heart was beating wildly.
“In addition, Bai Yu’er lost so much face yesterday. Grandmother will definitely not be able to sit still,” she said. “But there’s no hurry. Let’s eat breakfast first before going.”
The Longevity Hall was an independent courtyard next to the Hall of Glorious Peace and Chong Hua Hall. It was located in the deepest part of the General’s Manor and occupied a large area.
Before Bai Yuantai’s family went south to Qingzhou, they lived in the Hall of Glorious Peace and Chong Hua Hall.
Bai Xianyu and her brothers’ courtyard was a distance away. Originally, there was still the daily greeting rule at home, but ever since Bai Tanshen entered the military camp and Bai Mohuai went north to do business, Bai Jingyuan also got Bai Xianyu and Bai Jinyan into school.
Therefore, this rule was later abolished.
Green Pearl followed Bai Xianyu. Before the two of them entered the Longevity Hall, they heard Bai Yu’er crying bitterly.
“Grandmother, I’m too ashamed to face anyone. Now, the entire capital knows that I was chased out…”
Then, Old Madam’s heart ached.
“Yu’er, don’t be afraid. Grandmother will think of a way for you, okay? I will definitely find you a good family.”
“You won’t be able to find one… No one will want me…”
Madam Bai Meng said angrily, “Mother, don’t be biased towards Bai Xianyu. Hasn’t she enjoyed enough all these years? When it comes to our Yu’er, should she only have a life of being beaten up with a board? God pity her. Yu’er’s… old injuries had new ones added, and they’re still bloody.”
Biased?
Who was she biased towards?
Bai Xianyu even recalled carefully that her grandmother had never spoken to her so softly.
When they arrived at the hall, the gazes of the few of them landed on Bai Xianyu.
There were two people sitting in the main hall. One was Old Madam, and the other was Bai Yuantai. At this moment, they were glaring at her angrily. Standing there was Madam Bai Meng, and Bai Yu’er was lying on the soft couch. There was a veil between them, but one could see that she was lying on her stomach and crying with a handkerchief.
Old Madam was in a terrible fix. When she saw Bai Xianyu’s calm appearance, the anger in her heart seemed to have found an outlet. “Xianyu, come here!”
Bai Xianyu walked into the hall and bowed neither servile nor overbearing. “Greetings, Grandmother.”
“Your aunt had asked you to seek justice for your cousin. Why didn’t you go?” Old Madam held the nanny’s hand and walked up to Bai Xianyu. “This is your only cousin. Could it be that if her reputation is ruined, your reputation will be better!”
Bai Yu’er’s cries grew louder.
Madam Bai Meng gritted her teeth. “She just can’t bear to see our Yu’er doing well. She’s jealous that she received the Eldest Princess’s invitation, so she refused to help Yu’er!”
Bai Yuantai added fuel to the fire. “Mother, 1 only have one daughter, Yu’er. If her reputation is ruined, how can she get married?!”
The few of them spoke one after another, describing Bai Xianyu as a heinous sinner.
It seemed that it was her fault that Bai Yu’er’s reputation was ruined and she could not get married..
