”Better.”

After the Old General Bai finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to the expressions on everyone's faces and rushed back to his clan's direct relatives' residence in a flurry of emotions.

He wanted to see if Mo Kid had woken up. Only he knew where Xi Er was. If he did not send Xi Er back last night or did not let her go with Jun Mohan, such a big thing might not have happened. As he thought of this, he felt even more guilty.

After Old General Bai left, he sent a lot of servants to look for him. He waved his hand at the maids, gesturing for them to leave.

It was New Year's Eve, and the Prime Minister's Estate was decorated with lanterns and banners everywhere.

Inside the Prime Minister Bai's study, the flames burned and the atmosphere was extremely warm. At this time, Prime Minister Bai was seated on the main seat, with a stern look on his face. First Madam and his mother were seated together, deep in thought.

”Master, what do you mean by father? Do you think that we are the ones who harmed his darling granddaughter? ”

She was wearing a dark red, long skirt with rich peonies embroidered on it. She looked slightly tired. Thinking about it, Bai Zhiyan's matter had had a huge impact on her.

”Yes, Gramps. ”No matter how you put it, the young miss and Yan'Er are both his granddaughters, yet they turned a blind eye to him and instead wholeheartedly laid their hearts on that foolish girl. I really do not know what he is thinking.”

Auntie Du smiled, but his smile did not reach his eyes. He placed the teacup in his hand on the table.

”Mom, you're wrong about that. Xi Er was no fool now, but a talented girl. Your daughter is probably not even comparable to her. ”

She was just like her name, Bai Zhiyuan's beautiful eyes were filled with pity as she spoke softly.

When she thought about Bai Zhixi's Qingcheng doing that day, she looked back with a charming smile. She was unwilling to accept it, but due to her father's warning, she didn't dare to have any ill intentions towards him.

Now that his grandfather said it like that, the sadness in his heart grew even more.

”What talented girl? It's nothing more than a small trick.” It would be nice not to come back, in case I get upset. ”

Maybe he was used to being high and mighty, but now that he was squeezed out by someone, he lost his princess position. Bai Zhiru's heart was indignant, with a ”bang” he threw the teacup on the table.

”Ru Er, you can't speak carelessly. Her reputation has already become restless. If she were to suddenly disappear, what would outsiders think? You must be smart enough to think of that.”

First Madam shook her head as she held her hand. A vicissitudes of life surfaced on her originally beautiful and cold face. Maybe it was because after the death of his daughter, First Madam's previous arrogant attitude had completely disappeared, so he took more into consideration.

”Mom, why are you so timid now?”

Bai Zhiru's black eyes looked at his mother who was in a state of disarray, and his heart was in pain. If it wasn't for that little bitch Bai Zhixi, how could her mother have ended up like this? His ruthlessness flashed past in a flash, causing people to tremble with fear.

and, who were opposite her, saw the two prizes in each other's eyes. She looked at each other and revealed a mysterious smile, her meaning unclear.

”Alright, since it's not what you guys are doing, then that's for the best. Now was not the time to act. Don't act rashly and alert the enemy. Today is New Year's, be happy. Don't try to affect the atmosphere of the mansion. ”

After a long while, when the Prime Minister Bai finished listening to their conversation, a trace of impatience appeared in his dark tiger eyes. He raised his hand, indicating for them to leave.

First Madam and the rest understood, and bowed towards him, then brought their own people to the courtyard.

Within the Prime Minister's Estate, there was a strong smell of age, and every servant of the maidservant had joyous expressions on their faces.

Seeing that they were walking into the garden together, both First Madam and Auntie Du were startled, but they saluted to the two of them in unison.

Everyone knew that First Madam and Auntie Du had always been at loggerheads. Today, seeing them walking together and chatting merrily, they were truly shocked.

”Ru'er, next year, you're going to enter the palace and become a part of the princess, don't say nonsense and lower your status.”

In the garden, white snow, piled up on the rockery shape thousands of, very spectacular.

Being supported carefully by the maidservant, First Madam spoke to Bai Zhiru sincerely and sincerely.

She also did not want to lose a talented daughter, and could not bear the pain in her heart anymore.

”Yes, mother, daughter has been taught.”

Bai Zhiru seemed to have thought through a few things as he answered First Madam's question. He did not expect to hear a sneer from the Auntie Du.

”First Madam, with the current situation, who knows? Don't be so harsh with your words, or you will be embarrassed. ”

After leaving the Prime Minister Bai, the Auntie Du had long since lost her delicate and beautiful appearance, and now, she carried a trace of ridicule. These cold words had completely dampened the dreams of Prime Minister Bai Ru and her daughter.

”Yes, sister. I still remember that the young ladies of the Shangguan Family, our fifth sister, and those young ladies of the Shangguan Family who won all seemed to be pretty good. Your words are indeed premature. ”

Bai Zhiyuan always had the look of a beautiful woman who pitied others, and her words were extremely gentle. Furthermore, she knew how to hide her feelings. It could even be described as mysterious and unfathomable.

”What do you mean, second sister?” I am a legitimate daughter of the empress's godmother, so I won't lose to anyone in my thesis. In terms of appearance, she isn't inferior to you! Can't you even compare to those young ladies of the Shangguan family? ”
