”Fifth Miss, Madam said to let you count so that you don't say that Madam treated you badly.”

Her face darkened, she purposely raised her voice to speak to Bai Zhixi, afraid that the surrounding people would not be able to hear her.

Just as she expected, another wave of curses attacked her.

”Mama Zhao, I'll have to trouble you to go back and tell Third Aunt that she helped me take care of my mother's dowry all these years.” Now that Xi Er had grown up, there was no need to trouble her. Today, Xi Er was busy preparing his dowry, so she decided to come over to thank him on a different day. ”

Bai Zhixi ignored Mother Zhao's face and stood at the entrance, loudly saying the reason why he had brought all of his things into her courtyard.

When everyone heard this, they were speechless. It turned out that the First Madam had taken over the other party's mother's dowry. But she had not seen the First Madam talk about it all these years. It was obvious that it was because she was enjoying the money by herself. If it wasn't for the Fifth Miss mentioning it today, First Madam would have definitely swallowed this betrothal gift and secretly distributed it to her children. Other aunts wouldn't have been born with such a gift.

Thinking of this, everyone scattered like a wisp of smoke. They had to quickly tell their master about this news. In an instant, the entire courtyard was cleared, leaving behind only Mama Zhao and the rest. They stood there all by themselves, looking extremely desolate.

”Third Miss, why did you say that? It would ruin Madam's reputation. This old one thinks that you are only an outsider who was reared in Prime Minister's Estate. All these years, Madam has taken care of you without any complaints or regrets. Madame has not treated you badly, yet you have repeatedly destroyed her. ”Listen to this old one's advice. As a person, you must know how to repay favors. God, are you watching from above?”

Mrs Zhao saw that Bai Zhixi had dismissed everyone with a few words. No wonder the Madam was defeated by her, she was indeed powerful. He couldn't hold it in for a while, so he said the words that had been in his heart for a long time.

”Is that so? If she was really for my good, she wouldn't have let me live as stupid as a pig or a dog; would have indulged in the pleasure of bullying my own children day after day; would have secretly taken away my mother's dowry and my monthly silver, allowing me to drink vegetable porridge everyday; would have ruined my innocence because of a single word Bai Zhiyan had said. Excuse me, what have I done to offend her? I've said it before, anyone who offends me will do so ten times more. If anyone doesn't believe me, try challenging my bottom line. ”

Bai Zhixi's beautiful eyes flashed with a trace of viciousness, and she recounted all the things that had happened in the First Madam all these years in a single go, pressing down Mother Zhao's words so hard that she could not retort.

With a bang, he slammed the courtyard door shut, blocking Zhao mama from entering.

As for Lan Yi and Zi Li who were at the side, their eyes were filled with tears. It turned out that the young miss knew about them, it was just that she was an idiot in the past and did not know how to express them. Now that he had recovered, he would definitely feel very sad.

”Look, this is your good wife. He was so ruthless that he even wanted to take over his niece's money. Furthermore, to find someone to ruin her innocence, what kind of sin did I commit in my life to actually let such a malicious person into my Bai Clan. It truly is unfortunate for my clan! ”

old general, who was standing far away, was so angry that his eyes were filled with disappointment.

Seeing that the Prime Minister Bai did not answer, he turned and walked back to his own courtyard in anger.

Due to the First Madam's proclamations, everyone in the Prime Minister's Estate knew about it. old general and Prime Minister Bai had also heard about it and rushed over, who would've thought that they would find out about the dirty things First Madam did?

Faced with old general's scolding, the Prime Minister Bai could only silently endure it. He also knew about what First Madam had done to Bai Zhixi over the years, but he didn't like this niece who looked like her mother either, so he just closed his eyes and ignored her. As for the dowry, he also wanted it. It was not a small amount, and to his government, it was extremely useful.

He didn't expect that after being thrown into the Royal Tomb, she wouldn't die, and would instead return to her normal state. Not only that, she had even become so powerful. This wasn't something he wanted to see.

Prime Minister Bai stood on the spot, his pitch black eyes like an evil tiger, staring straight at the tightly shut door, his hands tightly clenched, his face filled with unwillingness.

After a long while, maidservant passed by and bowed to him. Prime Minister Bai instantly recovered his usual amiable master and nodded towards the crowd of maidservant, indicating for them to get up.

When maidservant left, he took another deep glance at her. He flung his sleeves and also left her shabby little courtyard.

”Miss, do you think the Prime Minister Bai will let us go?”

After Prime Minister Bai left, Lan Yi opened the door and watched Prime Minister Bai's leaving figure. He could not help but express the doubts in his heart. Just now, when he saw Prime Minister Bai's fierce gaze, he couldn't help but start to worry.

”Don't worry, we are only staying here for the time being. Once I find a suitable house, we will move out. We will be free to live without looking at anyone's face.”

In her previous life, she had gotten used to coming and going by herself. Ever since she knew that this place wasn't the home of her original body, she decided to move out and live by herself. She didn't have any excess silver before, so she didn't dare to tell Lan Yi and the others.

Now, with his mother's dowry, it would be more convenient for him to act on his own.

”Miss, is that true?”

Hearing this, Lan Yi pulled on her arm happily, his little face unable to conceal his excitement.

”Zi Li, are you unhappy?”

Bai Zhixi looked at Zi Li. Ever since she had been by his side, she had never said anything. Although she was around Lan Yi's age, she was more steady and steady than Lan Yi.
