C77 Who Is the Fool?

Who is the fool?

Prince Su's Mansion, Main Courtyard.

"Princess, Old Granny and Second Madam, Third Madame is here." Just as Bai Qingyan finished his breakfast, he came in to report.

Bai Qingyan raised his eyebrows, "Bring them to the main hall, I will go there shortly."

"Yes." Lan Yan immediately bowed and left.

In the main hall. After the servants served the tea, Lan Yan smiled and bowed, "Old granny, Second Madam, Third Madame, please enjoy the tea, the princess will be here in a while."

"Thank you, Miss Lan Yan." The old lady smiled and nodded at Lan Yan.

"Old granny is too kind." Lan Yan bowed properly and left respectfully.

"I heard that Madam Zhao and Second Miss also came yesterday, but in the end, they didn't even see our Young Miss's face."

A light flashed in the old lady's eyes as she lightly fiddled with the buddhist beads in her hand.

Second Madam Gu did not speak. She picked up her teacup and started drinking the tea as well.

Seeing that no one replied, Third Madame's charming eyes turned around, she sipped her tea and said, "That's strange, although Princess Suo does not like Madam Zhao, but at least she likes the second lady, why does she not like the second lady anymore?"

Second Madam Gu paused as she was sipping her tea. The corner of her lips curled up imperceptibly.

Yi Han had come back to tell her about the hunting grounds. Under the gazes of everyone present, Bai Ruoyu wanted to step on Bai Li?er's shoulder and climb up, but he was instead stepped on by Bai Li?er. Not only had he lost the match and lost face, he had also lost the trust of the Princess Suo. Furthermore, Bai Ruoyu also had a major suspicion towards this assassination, it would be weird if the Princess Suo could still treat her like that.

When the Old Granny heard Third Madame talking to herself, her eyes turned cold and she said, "I can't even stop you from drinking tea."

Third Madame's face turned red from being scolded, her mouth twitched as she unhappily drank her tea.

After a long while, the three of them finished their third cup of tea before Bai Qingyan finally brought Qingling and Bi He into the main hall.

Upon seeing Bai Qingyan, the three of them immediately stood up and saluted, "We pay our respects to wangfei."

Bai Qingyan sat in the main seat, and looked at the old lady who was bowing down below, and a cold smile rose at the corner of his mouth.

Only after a long while did Bai Qingyan raise his eyes, "Rise, we are all family, there is no need to be so courteous."

The old lady's face stiffened, the buddhist beads in her hand suddenly tightened.

"Thank you, wangfei." The three of them obeyed and stood up.

Seeing the three of them being so cautious, Bai Qingyan waved his hand, "Take a seat."

Only then did the three of them sit back down.

Bai Qingyan looked at the old lady, and the corner of his mouth lifted slightly. "I wonder why this old lady has come to the Duke's Mansion today?"

When the old lady heard the question, she immediately turned to Bai Qingyan and said, "It's like this. I heard that Hua Er was injured, so it might be inconvenient for her to stay in the Duke Palace.

Before the old lady finished speaking, she was immediately interrupted by Bai Qingyan. "Old lady, you're overthinking things. beaver is my niece, how can it not be convenient?"

The old lady's expression froze again, she tightly held the buddhist beads in her hands, her downcast eyes filled with displeasure.

"Knowing that Eldest Miss is injured, and that General's Estate has already invited all of the famous doctors in the Imperial City over, there's no need for Eldest Miss to worry about Eldest Miss returning to the General's Estate to be treated by a nameless doctor."

Bai Qingyan sneered, and then carelessly picked up a cup of tea to sip. "Third Sister-in-Law, you must be joking, I'm not worried about this, I'm worried about the leopard's injuries, those servants are only going to 'bully the lord'."

The old lady's face darkened after hearing that.

The servants and servants of the Bai Mansion were always bullying their masters. Wasn't this obvious that the old lady was being unreasonable? Or maybe she was talking about the Madam Zhao, but no matter what she was referring to, it was a blatant slap to the face.

Third Madame's face stiffened as he did not know how to respond. He could only sit there awkwardly, as if he wanted to say something but was unable to.

After a moment of silence, Second Madam Ye said, "Since it's inconvenient for Eldest Miss to return, I wonder if we can go and see Eldest Miss. Seeing that she's really safe, we can also be at ease."

Bai Qingyan turned his eyes, seeing the sincerity in the Second Madam's eyes, he was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Second Sister-in-Law is thoughtful, it's just that Second Sister-in-Law's injuries are serious, and she needs to be recuperated, it's not convenient to see customers around for the time being."

Heavily injured? Second Madam Gu lowered her eyes, a look of worry flashing across her eyes.

No one said anything as the atmosphere turned awkward. A moment later, the old woman finally couldn't stand it any longer and stood up. "Wangfei is busy. We won't disturb you any longer."

Bai Qingyan nodded her head lightly, "I originally wanted to keep you all here for a meal, but if that's the case, then I won't stay any longer."

Bai Qingyan said, then slightly tilted his head and said, "Send the old lady and the two sister-in-law out for me."

"Yes." Green Ling immediately bowed and gestured at the three of them to come over.

The three of them bowed to Bai Qingyan and followed Qing Ling out of the main hall.

The Old Mistress returned to the Pine Crane Garden with a dark expression and laid on the imperial bed in a huff.

Seeing that the old lady's expression was not good, the Second Madam and Third Madame lowered their heads and did not make a sound.

Glancing at the silent Second Madam and Third Madame, the old lady was so angry that her chest hurt, "What are you all doing here? Why aren't you all pouring me a cup of tea?"

The old lady was so angry that she didn't like anyone.

Second Madam Gu immediately took the teacup in Chun Chun's hand and offered it to the old lady.

Third Madame obediently stepped forward to massage the old lady's shoulders, "Old granny, please calm down, if that girl is not willing to come back, then she won't come back. Why must she come back?"

When the old lady heard, she immediately raised her eyebrows and glared at Third Madame, "What do you know? My General's Estate is recuperating from injuries in Prince Su's Mansion, if this were to spread out, would my General's Estate still care about our face? "

Third Madame lowered his eyes and didn't dare to speak carelessly again.

"Also, the old man is about to return. If the old man knew that beaver was recuperating in Prince Su's Mansion, I would have thought that we would have done something to her."

The old lady squinted, her eyes filled with jealousy and hatred towards Bai Li. Nothing was as important as Bai Li?er in the old man's heart.

The corners of Second Madam Ye's lips curled up into an undetectable sneer. The last sentence was the most important one. The old gramps was probably what the old lady feared the most.

The old man doted on Bai Li?er the most. If he knew that Bai Li?er was heavily injured and was not recuperating in Bai Mansion, he would definitely lose his temper.

"Then what should we do now?" Third Madame looked at the old lady with a solemn expression. If the Princess Suo did not release him, what could they do?

"Think of a way to send word to little girl, let her return home as soon as possible." The old lady's gaze was deep and calculating.

Hearing this, Third Madame's eyes lit up. The Princess Suo did not want to release him, but if Bai Li?er wanted to return, then she had no choice.

Looking at their expressions, Second Madam sneered. These two people still treated Bai Li?er as a fool.
