The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 596: sinister
Chapter 596 Dangerous
She guessed that Old Madam Fu might have… some evidence that the Queen used Fu Ruoxi. If Old Madam Fu could hand such evidence to the Crown Prince to prove that the Queen still had contact with Fu Ruoxi after becoming the Crown Princess, then the Queen would never be able to turn things around.
“Uncle Ping…” Bai Qingyan called out.
Lupin stepped forward: “Big girl’s orders!”
“Send someone to follow Old Lady Fu quietly.” Bai Qingyan said.
“Yes!” Lupin responded and turned to pass on the order.
It was already the end of the You hour. A yellow halo of light, like a tea stain that had not been cleaned for a long time on a porcelain cup, covered this metropolis with its green tiles, red eaves, carved beams and painted buildings. It reflected the wide streets and illuminated the carriages and horses that came and went. But the sun was setting in the west, and the setting sun was dim. Even though the long streets with numerous commercial companies had hung lanterns, the metropolis was not as bright as it was at noon.
In the end…it’s already setting.
Seeing Bai Qingyan standing at the main entrance with his hands behind his back for a long time, Chuntao turned around and told the maid to prepare food for Bai Qingyan. The maid said, “Don’t worry, Miss Chuntao. The second lady has already asked the kitchen to prepare food for the eldest lady.”
Bai Qingyan didn’t rest since he came back, and didn’t even have time to sit down and eat a good meal. This was all for the Bai family. How could Second Madam Liu not know this? Although Liu couldn’t help with other things, she naturally took care of these small matters of daily life with all her heart.
Upon hearing this, Chuntao felt extremely grateful to the Second Madam. She held up her skirt and prepared to go up the stairs to call Bai Qingyan, who was staring at the long street in a daze, to go back and eat something.
“Miss Chuntao!”
Chun Tao turned around and saw Cui Bi running over to Bai Jin Xiu. She bowed and said, “Yin Shuang is awake. I came to tell the eldest lady.”
Chun Tao was delighted and nodded: “Okay, I’ll go talk to the eldest girl!”
“Miss, Yinshuang has woken up.” Chuntao walked to Bai Qingyan and said happily.
Bai Qingyan heard the voice and nodded: “Let’s go and see Yin Shuang.”
Bai Qingyan walked down the stairs and said, “Ask the kitchen to prepare some sweets. Yin Shuang likes them.”
“Don’t worry, Miss. I have asked someone to prepare it long ago and am just waiting for Xiao Yinshuang to wake up.”
Chuntao responded happily and subconsciously reached out to help Bai Qingyan down the stairs. Bai Qingyan smiled and said to her, “Chuntao, I’m in good health now. I’m no longer the sickly person who always needs your help.”
Chun Tao insisted on supporting Bai Qingyan: “This is in the capital city, it’s better for you to be gentle!”
Having been with Bai Qingyan for such a long time, Chuntao had seen Bai Qingyan without makeup. When she went to see the prince, she deliberately put powder on her lips to make herself look weaker.
Although Chuntao didn’t understand what it meant before, now she can understand that Bai Qingyan showed weakness to the prince in order to reduce the prince’s suspicion.
But since we are doing a show, we have to do it in its entirety.
Bai Qingyan looked at Chuntao, who had a determined expression, nodded, and let Chuntao support him as he walked down the stairs.
As soon as Yinshuang got up, she looked for her bag of pine nut candies and sat obediently in the corridor waiting for the eldest girl to come back so that she could give the candies to her. But she was so greedy…she really wanted to eat one.
When Yin Shuang was struggling with whether to take one, she saw Chuntao supporting Bai Qingyan and walking in from outside Qinghui Courtyard.
“Young lady!” Yin Shuang stood up suddenly, and remembered that she was scolded by the two girls of the Qin family for not knowing etiquette and bringing shame to the second girl in the palace. Yin Shuang hurriedly bowed to Bai Qingyan, and was so anxious that the pine nut candy in her hand fell to the ground, “Ah!”
Yin Shuang exclaimed and quickly squatted down to pick up the pine nut candy on the ground.
Cui Bi glanced at Bai Qingyan, then quickly rushed over to help Yin Shuang pick up the pine nut candies on the ground. As she picked them up, she said, “Yinshuang, these candies are dirty. Be good! Sister Cui Bi will give them to you later…”
Before Cui Bi finished her words, she saw Yin Shuang running towards Bai Qingyan holding the pine nut candy she had picked up. She happily blew the pine nut candy clean and handed it to Bai Qingyan: “Young lady…eat the candy!”
Bai Qingyan looked at Yin Shuang, who had only one eye left but still smiled brightly at her, and felt jealous. Yin Shuang lost her eye for the lives of Jinxiu and Wangger.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the pine nut candy in Yinshuang’s hand.
Cui Bi was startled and quickly stood up and went over to stop Yin Shuang. How could she give the dirty pine nut candy to a grown girl?
Unexpectedly, before Cui Bi could stop him, Bai Qingyan had already pinched a pine nut candy into his mouth, and said to Yin Shuang with a smile: “Mm, very sweet!”
Cui Bi looked at the older girl in disbelief and swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
Yin Shuang grinned, revealing a row of big white teeth, and looked very happy.
Sister Qingzhu once told her that the older girl had a hard life, and Yinshuang just wanted to make her happy.
Bai Qingyan raised his hand, touched Yinshuang’s head, led Yinshuang to the upper room, and told Chuntao: “Go get some snacks and yogurt…”
After bringing Yinshuang into the upper room, Chuntao had people bring up the food and snacks prepared for Yinshuang.
Seeing Yin Shuang eating a lot of snacks, Bai Qingyan smiled and handed a handkerchief to Yin Shuang to let her wipe her hands, and asked: “Yin Shuang, are you willing to follow Doctor Hong in the future?”
Yin Shuang swallowed the steamed cake in her mouth, took the handkerchief, and said in confusion: “Didn’t the eldest girl say that she would stay with the second girl all the time?”
After thinking for a while, Yin Shuang added: “No need in the mansion, but you have to follow me when you go out. Yin Shuang will remember it!”
Bai Qingyan nodded: “Yes! You did a great job, so… I wanted to ask if you are willing to follow Doctor Hong and return to Shuoyang with me?”
Yin Shuang’s eyes lit up, and she almost blurted out the word “willing”, but she swallowed it back and asked, “Then… who will follow the Second Miss and Wang Ge’er? What if Yin Shuang is not here, and someone kicks the Second Miss in the stomach, or is so vicious that he wants to stab her with a knife? "
Bai Qingyan’s heart clenched. Bai Jinxiu had never revealed to Bai Qingyan the details of her distress in the palace. She knew that Jinxiu didn’t want to make her worry, but after hearing what Yin Shuang said… Bai Qingyan knew how dangerous the situation was at that time.
Bai Qingyan gritted his teeth, his eyes becoming darker.
Yin Shuang thought for a moment and said, “Sister Qing Zhu said that if I take good care of the second young lady, the eldest young lady will be relieved. Yin Shuang will still take care of the second young lady, and there is also hope for Brother…”
When Cui Bi heard Yin Shuang’s silly words, her eyes turned red: “Silly Yin Shuang, your sister Cui Yu and I can both take care of the second girl!”
“You’re not as good as me!” Yin Shuang said seriously.
“You can’t take care of the Second Miss and Wang Ge’er by yourself, and you are as sleepy as a kitten now!” Cui Bi said with a smile, “What if you go out with the Second Miss and fall asleep? If the Second Miss is in danger, she will have to protect you, right?”
Yin Shuang thought about it and nodded: “Then I will follow the eldest lady’s instructions.”
“Then follow Doctor Hong and come back to Shuoyang with me in a few days. It will be closer to Qingzhu.”
