Bai Xianyu frowned slightly. âWhat happened?â
The servant glanced at Ji Shuang and seemed to be a little hesitant.
âWhen the guards were patrolling as usual today, they saw Bai Yuâerâs family and Old Madam squatting at the back door. I donât know how they found out that you would return today, but they insisted on seeing you. They even said that if you donât see them, you are being unfaithful and unfilial, and that theyâll go to Chengtian Manor to sue you tomorrow.â
The Chengtian Manor was the capitalâs magistrate office.
Ji Shuang raised her eyebrows and said in a surprised tone, âLittle Yu, I told you when you were young that your grandmother was not a kind person. Do you still remember?â
âI remember.â
She continued, âBut you treated her very well in the past. Whether it was gold, silver, or satin, you would give her a share of what your brother had given you. Now, you actually have the heart to chase her out of the residence?â
Bai Xianyu chuckled. âDo you think Iâm too heartless?â
Ji Shuang snorted, âHow can that be? You should cut it off like this. It doesnât matter whether sheâs your grandmother or someone else. There are always some people in the world who like to use the favor they have given as an excuse to ask for repayment, whether itâs for bearing a child, raising a child, or anything else⦠It doesnât matter what others think. Itâs good as long as you live comfortably and have a clear conscience.â
âYes.â Bai Xianyuâs red lips curled up slightly as she said to the servants, âChase them away. If they donât leave, beat them up. Theyâre not from our residence. You also donât have to address her as Old Madam.â
Bai Yuâerâs snow-white dress had already turned yellow from washing. She supported Old Madam with her hand and frowned. âGrandmother, when you go back, you must get Bai Xianyu to compensate for your Little Treasure! Look, I donât even have a dress to wear. How can I wear such a dress out to meet people?â
Old Madam patted her hand. âDonât worry. When we go into the residence later, Grandmother will give you those dresses and hairpins in her private vault! Those things in there are all good stuff.You canât buy them even if you want to!â
âYou have to take more! At least take half of it before you forgive her, Grandmother. Otherwise, she wonât learn her lesson!â Bai Yuâer said angrily.
She had gone from heaven to hell during this period. The price of things in the capital was unbelievably high. Renting a house, buying a few kilograms of rice, and soon, her family ran out of money. This was all Bai Xianyuâs fault. She could have been enjoying life in the Generalâs Manor!
Mdm Meng had already started to pack her clothes. She also straightened Bai Mao and Bai Yuantaiâs clothes. âWhen we go in later, the few of you must puff out your chests and raise your heads! Donât let that b*tch look down on you!â
The group of people nodded, as if they were certain that Bai Xianyu would definitely open the door and invite them back. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Footsteps came from behind the red door. Then, the bolt was lifted. It was the servant who had helped them pass the message.
Old Madam instantly raised her head and puffed out her chest. She shouted angrily, âGet out of my way! 1 want to punish her well for disobeying her elders!â
Bai Yuâer said, âThatâs right. Grandmother, letâs go in quickly!â
As the two of them spoke, they directly hit the door and pushed, wanting to enter!
Suddenly, there was a loud âBANG!â
Old Madam, Bai Yuâer, and the people behind all fell to the ground!
A few expressionless guards stood out from behind the servant and shouted coldly, âScram!â
The long saber reflected a cold light under the sunlight, causing the hearts of the people to tremble!
Bai Yuantai scolded, âOpen your dog eyes wide. Weâre the masters of all of you, dog slaves!â
The leading guard sneered. âMaster?â
In the next second, a white light flashed, and Bai Yuantaiâs robe was cut open. The inner lining and wrinkled flesh were immediately exposed!
âYou!! How dare you attack me! My brother is Bai Yuannian!â He was so angry that his voice cracked!
Old Madam trembled in fear. Bai Yuâer tugged at her sleeve and cried, âGrandmother, Cousin is too much!â
âI⦠Iâmâ¦â
The guard was impatient. He drew his saber and walked straight towards the two of them.
Old Madam did not finish her sentence. When she thought of Bai Yuantaiâs naked body, her face trembled.
After a long confrontationâ
âLetâs go!â
Bai Yuâer gritted her teeth and looked at the Generalâs Manor resentfully. She was dragged away by Old Madam.
In a cracked corner, Bai Yuâer and her family gathered together with ugly expressions.
âWhat should we do now? She actually wonât let us go back!â
Bai Yuâer was indignant. âThen letâs report her! Grandmother, report her. Itâs the elders who are in the right for such a case. When the time comes, you can pretend to be pitiful. The magistrate of the Chengtian Manor wonât be able to bear it and will definitely let her bring us back!â
âThatâs right, thatâs right.. As long as you report her for such a disgraceful thing, she definitely wonât be able to do anything!â
