The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy

Chapter 1035: Carry Away
Soon, several strong women came in from outside.
Fang asked, “Quick! Take the person to the carriage before the nanny and the maid come back!”
“yes!”
Several maids came forward in response.
Fang’s heart was beating very fast and she was quite nervous. Thinking of her brother, she asked hurriedly, “Has my uncle passed away?”
“Madam, don’t worry, the uncle has passed away!”
Wang was thin, so several maids put her in a sack and carried her on their shoulders, pretending to move something heavy. But as soon as they came out of the tent, they saw a row of imperial guards with swords standing outside the tent. They were so scared that they dared not move…
The eunuch Wei Zhong beside Bai Qingyan was holding a whisk and standing in the middle with a smile on his face.
The old ladies didn’t know what was going on, so they didn’t dare to step forward. They looked at each other…
When Fang was about to come out after handling the situation, she saw the maids still blocking the door. She frowned and walked out while lowering her voice and scolding them, “What are you still standing outside for? Hurry up and carry the person away!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Fang saw the imperial guards and Wei Zhong outside. Her heart suddenly rose to her throat and she clutched the hem of her clothes tightly.
Now Fang was in a difficult situation. If Wei Zhong found out that the person in the sack was the Fourth Lady, she would not be able to explain herself even if she had a hundred mouths.
She forced herself to smile, and took a few steps forward to greet Wei Zhong. “Eunuch Wei… the fourth lady is still changing clothes inside. Did His Majesty send you here because he was worried?”
Without waiting for Wei Zhong to answer, Fang smiled and said, “Everything is fine here. Nanny Guan has gone to get clothes. The fourth lady just spilled her tea, and these maids have rolled up the blankets and are about to change them! It’s nothing serious. Eunuch Wei, please tell your majesty not to worry. I will take good care of the fourth lady. Please tell your majesty not to worry.”
Wei Zhong smiled and flicked off the dust that was not on his body. He said in a gentle tone, “Go… send a maid to take a look. Then open the sacks that these women are carrying on their shoulders and let this old servant take a look.”
Fang clutched her clothes tightly, her face changed drastically, and she quickly spoke out to stop him: “Eunuch Wei, the fourth lady’s clothes are all dirty and she is waiting inside. If you have anything to say, you can ask me to pass it on. Besides… I am the wife of the head of the Bai family. Can’t I take good care of the fourth lady?”
Wei Zhong smiled and nodded to Fang, saying, “Madam Clan Leader, what you said is… quite right. Your Majesty is really worried about you taking care of the Fourth Madam!”
Fang was stunned. She never thought that Wei Zhong, a mere eunuch, would dare to speak to her like that. She felt upset and gritted her teeth, not knowing what to do.

The second young lady of the Qin family was dressed very plainly today. She had been sitting under the arbour, as quiet as if she didn’t exist. Her eldest sister wanted to get together with other noble ladies, but the other noble ladies just nodded and greeted the eldest young lady of the Qin family for Bai Jinxiu’s sake, and chatted and laughed with her without any intention of bringing up the eldest young lady of the Qin family.
But the eldest daughter of the Qin family was also ignorant of tact and insisted on standing there. When she heard the laughter of the noble ladies, she also covered her mouth with a fan and laughed.
A mean noble lady glanced at the eldest daughter of the Qin family who was laughing along with them, and said with a half-smile: “What is the eldest daughter of the Qin family laughing at? We are talking about what happened at the birthday party of the Lu family sister that day. The eldest daughter of the Qin family did not go, and I don’t know the reason. Why are you laughing with us?”
Lu Baohua frowned and gently patted the noble lady who was speaking with his round fan, signaling her not to be so harsh.
The eldest daughter of the Qin family felt that her face was hurt and showed an embarrassed expression. Perhaps she saw that Lu Baohua was trying to protect her, so she looked at Lu Baohua with tears in her eyes and said, “If Sister Lu family holds a banquet, she can invite me to go and have fun together, so that I won’t be ignorant of everything.”
Lu Baohua was stunned by the aggrieved words of the eldest daughter of the Qin family.
Arong, the granddaughter of Huang Taiyi, was good friends with Bai Jinzhi. She was always outspoken and rolled her eyes at the aggrieved Qin family’s eldest daughter: “Are you still blaming Sister Lu for not inviting you? How can you be so shameless? You said you have never had any contact with Sister Lu on weekdays. She only invited her best friend to her birthday party. How dare you… Why did Sister Lu think of you on her birthday!”
The eldest daughter of the Qin family straightened her back when she heard this: “My brother is now highly valued by His Majesty, and my sister-in-law is the assistant to the emperor!”
“Oh, the eldest daughter of the Qin family has probably forgotten that when the Prince of Fuguo just got married to your brother, he almost died in the hands of you sisters before he could return home? Your biological mother…used all kinds of dirty tricks to flatter her first wife and son, and even reached out to her daughter-in-law’s dowry! It is said that like fathers, like sons, like daughters, and what kind of seed can dig holes…”
Before the noble lady could finish her words, she saw Bai Jinzhi, dressed in tight clothes, walking towards their awning.
“Princess Gao Yi!”
“Gao Yijun!”
The noble ladies hurriedly stood up and saluted Bai Jinzhi. Some called Bai Jinzhi Princess Gaoyi, some called Bai Jinzhi Lord Gaoyi, and they all congratulated Bai Jinzhi on her birthday.
The eldest daughter of the Qin family also stood up and kept wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
Bai Jinzhi pretended not to notice and waved her hand: “Everyone, get up. I didn’t come here to disturb you, Arong…”
When Huang Jia’s Arong heard Bai Jinzhi calling her, a bright smile like a sunflower appeared on her face. She responded, holding up her skirt, picked up the round fan on the table and walked towards Bai Jinzhi.
“You guys go play!” Bai Jinzhi grabbed Huang Jia Arong’s hand and dragged her out, asking Huang Jia Arong in a low voice, “What happened? I saw you looking angry from a distance!”
“You didn’t see what the eldest daughter of the Qin family did. I’m so angry!” Huang Jia’s A Rong told Bai Jinzhi what happened in the shed just now. Just after she finished speaking, she saw the second daughter of the Qin family walking towards Bai Qingyan’s shed. She hurriedly pulled Bai Jinzhi’s sleeve and said, “Look! Look! One is complaining that the sister of the Lu family didn’t invite her to the birthday party, and she also said that she is the sister-in-law of sister Jinxiu! I guess the other one will also use sister Jinxiu and His Majesty to get close to her! If you don’t believe me, just watch!”
Huang’s Arong just can’t stand the behavior of the Qin sisters.
Bai Jinzhi paused, squinted his eyes in the bright sun, and saw the second daughter of the Qin family walking across the kite-flying field, kneeling outside her eldest sister’s shed, and bowing to her.
“Ding——”
With the sound of a gong, the time for the kite flying competition has arrived.
The young eunuchs took the kite strings from the daughters of each family and the widows who were invited to participate in the competition, and the daughters of each family and the widows who participated in the competition also stood under Bai Qingyan’s awning.
When the people who were stopped outside by the imperial guards heard the gong sound, they all stopped what they were doing and looked up at the sky.
