C18 Be Left out by the Old Lady

Cui'er's body trembled in fear, and she quickly took a few steps back, "The servant …" The servant just waited outside the door, waiting … Waiting for Miss's instructions. " She trembled and replied with a guilty conscience.

Bai Chusheng let out a cold snort. He didn't pay any more attention to Cui Er as he and Bai Ruotong walked straight out of the Qingtong Courtyard. Cui Er bit her lips, stomped her feet and followed the two of them.

The general's mansion was really big, even Bai Ruotong's legs were trembling as she followed behind Bai Chusheng. However, Bai Chusheng was a military brute. He did not know how to show mercy to the ladies, and did not even know how to summon a sedan chair for his sickly little sister.

Did she think her physical strength could compare to his? She's still sick!

Bai Ruotong secretly made fun of Bai Chusheng while admiring the scenery of the general's mansion. The pavilions and courtyards of the general's manor were interconnected. Each courtyard was a scene of their own, with a flower and a blade of grass being extremely particular to the surroundings.

Bai Chusheng stopped at a courtyard close to the east side of the courtyard. The gate of the red lacquer courtyard was wide open, and the words "Yongning Courtyard" hung on a red wooden plaque.

Bai Chusheng walked into the courtyard first, followed by Bai Ruotong.

The scenery in the courtyard was even more gorgeous than before. The ground beneath his feet was paved with green pebbles. A small and exquisite arched bridge stood in the middle of the courtyard. Beneath the bridge was a gurgling stream that must have been connected to a underground road. The water was clear enough to see the bottom. A few silver carp were swimming freely in the water.

Bai Chusheng hurried across the bridge and into the corridor. The door of the pavilion was wide open. He stopped outside and waited for Bai Ruotong to follow. Together, they entered the hall.

Old Granny was currently lying down on a soft bed to eat her morning tea. Next to her, Lady Zhang was attentively attending to her. She was behaving obediently to the Old Granny's delight.

"Madame, the fourth lady and eldest young master are here." The head maid in front of the old lady came forward and reported.

"Let them in."

When the old lady heard this, she put down the teacup and let out a soft snort. Zhang Shi's eyes were sharp, and when she saw the old lady's face fall, the smile on her lips became even more beautiful.

She leaned close to the old lady, pinched her throat, and said obediently, "Mother, look at Ruotong, she only arrived a few days ago, and even called Eldest Young Master along. Mother, tell me, did she go to call for reinforcements?"

Mrs. Zhang was laughing happily while wringing the silk handkerchief, but her laughter was immediately cut off by a cold stare from the old lady.

"If Tun Tong is your daughter after all, how is it proper for you to mock her?"

Old Granny sighed as she entered. She had asked some people about her, and they knew that she was a person with a virtuous and virtuous personality. Looking at her character now, it was obvious that she had a sharp tongue. If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have allowed the Zhang Clan to enter Zhenxi General's Estate.

Mrs Zhang was forced into a corner as she laughed heartily. While the three of them were chatting, Bai Chusheng and Bai Ruotong walked into the hall. He cupped his hands and greeted, "Grandmother's greetings. Grandmother Fu Ze is well."

"If Tung sends Grandmother greetings, Grandmother Fuze is well." Bai Ruotong imitated Bai Chusheng's tone and bowed.

"My son, come and take a look at Grandmother's place. It's been a while since we last met, and you've suntanned again." The old lady did not respond to Bai Ruotong. She raised her hand and gestured for Bai Chusheng to sit beside her. Her words were filled with heartache.

Bai Chusheng held the old lady's hand and smiled gently, "So what if you're a man with a black spot?"

Bai Ruotong's round eyes stared eagerly at the old lady. The old lady only cared about her and Bai Chusheng, and completely disregarded her as air. Zhang Shi was looking forward to Bai Ruotong's joke. Seeing that the old lady had ignored her, she did not bother to remind her of the situation. Instead, she just continued eating the fruits and sipping the green tea.
