The faces of Third Wife and Zhao Family stiffened. They unwillingly blessed themselves and then left.
Seeing that, the Second Madame, Bai Ruoyu and the others all tactfully left the room.
When everyone left, old lady angrily swept the teapot on the table to the ground.
Liao Momo and the others looked at old lady's bloodshot eyes, and lowered their heads in fright, not daring to move an inch.
The young miss was too ruthless, four hundred thousand gold, this was clearly cutting the old lady's flesh.
Prince Su's Mansion, Southern Garden.
Bai Li was enjoying her Battle Kick Dagger.
He raised his hand and lightly tapped on the shiny silver blade. The blade trembled as if it was ticklish.
Bai Li raised her eyebrows in interest, she raised her hand and knocked again, and the blade trembled again.
Bai Li smiled. She really likes this clever little thing!
Qi Wen pushed aside the curtains and entered the room, bowing as she reported.
"Miss, the old lady sent a message, saying that the money you just bought has been paid off."
Bai Li raised her eyebrows, and finally raised her eyes.
Yun Zhi came over excitedly, "Four hundred thousand gold, Old Madame has already settled the debt."
"Right." Qi Wen was also in a good mood as she nodded her head.
She never thought that the old Madame would be so straightforward to take out so much gold to help the young miss pay.
Bai Li was not surprised, she raised her eyebrows and asked: "Is there anything else you need to say?"
Qi Wen's eyes flashed lightly. "They even said that it's Second Miss and Aunt Zhao's celebration tomorrow. This old lady hopes that you can return to the Palace today."
Indeed.
Bai Li smirked and raised her chin: "Go out and say that I will be back after dinner."
"Yes."
Qi Wen was startled, then immediately bowed and left.
"Miss, do you really want to go home?"
Yun Zhi frowned, puzzled.
Tomorrow was the celebration banquet for Aunt Zhao and Second Miss. If Miss were to return at this time, she would definitely suffer a loss tomorrow.
Bai Li raised her eyebrows, picked up the handkerchief from the table and slowly wiped the dagger.
"Since old lady is so sincere in slicing the meat, I naturally have to show some sincerity as well. This Prince Su's Mansion is after all, not our territory.
The show tomorrow would be so exciting, so why wouldn't she go back and watch it?
Bai Li lowered her eyes, slightly dazed. If that guy couldn't find her in Prince Su's Mansion, he would probably go there.
Imperial City, in a big house.
"Master, this was just delivered here by a servant of the Treasure Pavilion." Liu Shang said to Mo Beichen as he pointed to a few big boxes.
Mo Beichen looked at the box expressionlessly, "What did you sell?"
"He said that he wanted to sell the saint rank dagger that your grandpa refined, as well as the golden needle and mask that senior brother Jiang Qing refined."
Liu Shang said excitedly. He never thought that he would suddenly sell so much this time.
Mask?
Mo Beichen frowned, thinking of something, he immediately sat up.
"Who bought it?"
Who bought it?
Liu Shang blinked his eyes foolishly, "This subordinate did not ask."
Mo Beichen frowned, "Go and ask now."
Liu Shang was stunned again. Didn't I only take gold, and not ask where I come from? Why are you asking the buyer today?
"Go ahead." Mo Beichen's eyes widened.
"Yes."
Liu Shang regained his consciousness and immediately bowed and left.
After asking around according to Mo Beichen's requirements, Liu Shang ran back excitedly.
"Master, the Madame bought it."
Liu Shang looked at Mo Beichen with sparkling eyes, his face filled with excitement.
He did not expect that the saint rank dagger that Master had refined was bought by Madame, he really had good taste.
It really was her.
Mo Beichen's lips raised into a rare smile, and a trace of anticipation flashed across his silvery-purple eyes.
Looking at the curve of the corner of Mo Beichen's lips, Liu Shang blinked his eyes foolishly.
Is this grandpa smiling? It was the first time he saw a guy laughing. Madame's charm was indeed extraordinary.
"From now on, you are not allowed to take any money from Madame."
Liu Shang came back to reality and said, "This subordinate has already taught Jin Dou a lesson. In the future, if Madame goes to the Treasure Pavilion to buy stuff, she will definitely not accept any silver. As for the other shops, this subordinate will also send over a portrait of Madame."
In this grandpa's place, the treatment of Madame is unique.
His father had a weird habit of not loving money, but he loved to collect gold. Whoever touched his gold would only have a dead end. Only the Madame had this kind of charisma, enough to let me cut flesh and pour blood so easily.
Mo Beichen nodded, he suddenly stood up and walked out.
"Master?"
Where are you rushing to?
Liu Shang frowned, he immediately chased after him, but realised that Mo Beichen had already disappeared.
"Go and protect Madame."
A familiar cold voice sounded from mid air. Liu Shang immediately bowed and replied, "Yes."
Prince Su's Mansion.
"Hua'er, you haven't fully recovered from your injuries. You really have to go back now." Bai Qingyan pulled at Bai Li with reluctance.
Bai Li smirked, "Aunt, don't worry. My injuries have more or less healed."
Bai Li shook her arm as if she was proving it.
Bai Qingyan frowned, "Even if your injuries are healed, you don't need to be in such a hurry to go back.
"Lan Yan."
Bai Qingyan said, and immediately called for Lan Yan, wanting to clarify things.
Seeing that Bai Qingyan had misunderstood, Bai Li shook her head and explained.
"Aunty, you're too worried. With aunt's care, how could they dare to treat me badly?" Grandmother has repeatedly sent people to invite me. This means that the day is a celebration feast for Aunt Zhao and Second Sister, and that I must return. "
Hearing that, Bai Qingyan's face immediately turned cold.
"Don't bother with them, if you don't go back, I'll see who will still dare to come to my Prince Su's Mansion to get people."
She knew very well what the old lady was thinking. Wasn't it just that Bai Ruoyu had the upper hand now, and wanted to use tomorrow's celebratory feast to suppress her? The treasure of their long room, on what basis should I let them trample on it? Why don't I go back and see what they can do?
Knowing that Bai Qingyan was truly concerned about him, a hint of warmth flashed across Bai Li's eyes.
Bai Li held Bai Qingyan's hand, and smiled, "Auntie, do you think that the current Qu'er is still the Bai Lier that they could bully whenever they wanted to?"
Bai Qingyan was slightly taken aback, but when she thought about Bai Li's performance at the hunting grounds in Cloud Piercing Mountain, and how she had gotten along with Bai Li over the past few days, she slightly relaxed.
Indeed, the current Qilin girl was no longer the same one who was bullied by others. If they dared to have any bad thoughts, the one who would suffer would most likely not be Qu'er.
"Aunt, don't worry, they can't bully me. Tomorrow is a big matter for our West Prefecture, so I, the proper master, naturally have to go back."
The corner of Bai Li's mouth raised into a sneer, she had already planned for a big show the next day, so of course she had to go back and watch it.
Right now, she was the only master of the room. If she did not go back, not only would she allow the Zhao Family and Bai Ruoyu to achieve their dream, the noble ladies tomorrow would also underestimate her.
"Then aunty will accompany you tomorrow morning."
Bai Qingyan still had an expression of reluctance.
Although he said he was recuperating here, this child really didn't stay for many days. He was about to leave in such a hurry, how could she bear to do that?
"Cousin Li'er, I'll accompany you tomorrow as well."
Murong Yuyun also looked at Bai Li with reluctance.
Bai Li smiled, "Alright."
Murong Yuyun threw herself into Bai Li's embrace and said in a spoiled manner, "Cousin Li'er, Yun Er is really reluctant to part with you."
Bai Li hugged Murong Yuyun and pinched her little face, feeling reluctant to part with her.
"After tomorrow, you can move in with me. I'll play with you every day."
"Really? That's great. " Murong Yuyun's eyes lit up and jumped up happily.
Bai Li looked at the happy Murong Yuyun with a doting expression, then turned to Murong Ling and said, "Elder Cousin Ling will also come with you at that time."
Murong Ling blushed and nodded, "En."
After reluctantly bidding farewell to Bai Qingyan's family, Bai Li, Qi Wen, and the others all sat on the horse carriage.
Because Bai Qingyan saw that Bai Li did not have many servants, she gave Qing Ling, the first servant by her side, to Bai Li. Bai Li rejected it repeatedly, but she still could not force Bai Qingyan, so she accepted Qing Ling.
Once he returned to the Bai Mansion, Bai Li immediately became sick. He did not even pay respects to the old lady and directly went back to the wutong garden.
As for the old lady and the second Madame, the Third Wife had sent people over to visit them.
In wutong garden, Bai Li earnestly scanned Qing Ling from head to toe.
With her oval face and red phoenix eyes, although she couldn't be considered to be extremely beautiful, she was still a jade-like beauty from a small family.
Bai Li raised her eyes and looked at Qing Ling seriously, "Since Aunt gave you to me, then you will be mine from now on. From today onwards, you will be called Qing Ling, and will be my servant like Qi Wen."
Qing Ling immediately bowed properly, "Thank you for the name."
Looking at the somewhat reserved Qing Ling, a light flashed in Bai Li's eyes, "You don't have to follow any of the rules here with me. The only thing you need to remember is one word: heartfelt."
Hearing that, Qing Ling immediately kneeled down and said anxiously: "This servant is Miss's man, death is Miss's ghost, I will definitely swear to be loyal to Miss, and have no other intentions."
Looking at the nervous Qing Ling, Bai Li curled her lips in disdain.
"That's enough, follow me, and I won't give you a chance to die. Remember, your lives are not mine, but your own, and even I don't have the qualifications to casually take your lives. So, protect your lives well, and don't give me the chance to sacrifice you all."
Bai Li's words caused the trio of Qi Wen, Yun Zhi and Qing Ling to experience tumultuous waves.
It was the first time they had heard such a special request, such a heartwarming request.
They were all servants who signed a death contract, their lives were already their masters, how could they still have their lives? But their masters had allowed them to keep their lives, not only did it give them an unprecedented warmth, it also gave them an unprecedented dignity.
Seeing the three of them staring blankly, Bai Li frowned, "Did you all hear that?"
All three of them replied respectfully, "Yes."
"Alright, let's go down. We don't need to keep watch tonight." Bai Li waved her hands, and immediately laid on the plated golden phoenix bed.
"Yes." The three of them immediately bowed and left.
Bai Li rested her head on her arm and raised her eyes to look at the red tent, a look of longing flashing past her eyes.
That fellow should know that he was in Bai Mansion, right?
