The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 690: Longevity
Chapter 690: Long Life
It is definitely not a book written hastily based on the opinions of only one person. This is also the reason why Mr. Min is highly respected by students and the world.
“Go back!”
Bai Jinzhi secretly encouraged himself. He couldn’t keep hiding from his mother like this. He would get hurt if he stuck his head out, or if he hid his head, he would still get hurt. He might as well go back!
“Qingping still has to visit the military camp, so he won’t see you off, Princess.” Bai Qingping bowed and said goodbye to Bai Jinzhi.
Bai Jinzhi nodded and jumped onto his horse. He sighed and inhaled, with a fearless expression on his face, and returned home with the Bai family guards.
Just as Bai Jinzhi expected, as soon as she entered the house, she saw her mother Li holding a ruler in her hand, tapping her palm from time to time, and looking at her with a smile.
Bai Jinzhi felt an inexplicable pain in the palm of his hand that was holding the whip. He smiled at his mother and said, “Mom… Mom, didn’t you go to see my elder sister?”
“I just came out from your eldest sister’s place, don’t worry…your eldest sister is being taken care of by your aunt, nothing will happen to her…come here! Come here, mother will talk to you!” Li waved at Bai Jinzhi with a fake smile, “Come…don’t be afraid!”
Bai Jinzhi was very spineless and knelt directly at the door, respectfully raised her hands, palms facing up: “As long as mother is not angry, mother can hit me as much as you want, but… mother, can you hit me a little more gently? My elder sister is injured, and I still have to help her. It is inconvenient to ride a horse with an injured hand.”
When Li heard this, tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.
The nanny beside Li took the opportunity to gently take the ruler from Li’s hand and said with a smile: “Madam, look, our fourth sister knows she was wrong! Don’t be angry, the fourth sister was also worried about the eldest daughter, so she hurriedly left a letter and ran away. Please forgive the fourth sister because she really cares about the eldest daughter and the eldest daughter is injured and still relies on the fourth sister for help!”
The nanny said this and winked at Bai Jinzhi. Bai Jinzhi quickly stood up holding up her skirt and ran to Li’s front and knelt down. She hugged Li’s waist and looked up at Li: “Mother, please don’t be angry. I won’t dare to do it again!”
Li stared at Bai Jinzhi with tears in her eyes and poked Bai Jinzhi’s forehead hard with her hand, but swallowed the scolding, bent down to help her daughter up again, and leaned over to brush the dust off her skirt.
Seeing the dead leaves tangled in the tassels of the white brocade scent bag and the dirty mud on her new embroidered shoes, Li couldn’t help but get angry again: “Look at what you look like! You don’t look like a lady at all. Look at your cousin from the Dong family. When you can be half as elegant as your cousin from the Dong family, I will be relieved even if I close my eyes!”
“Then I must be more naughty so that mother can live a long life!” Bai Jinzhi leaned on her mother’s shoulder, her eyes smiling, full of the intimacy of a little girl who relies on her mother.
Li stared at Bai Jinzhi, and then she laughed out loud. She wiped her tears with a handkerchief, pushed Bai Jinzhi away, and said with a threatening face, “You don’t have to beat me! Go and copy the “Female Rules” a thousand times! No one is allowed to write for you! If you can’t finish it… Watch out for your legs! Go back to your yard, change your clothes, and drink the soup!”
After saying that, Li poked Bai Jinzhi’s forehead again, then walked towards Bai Jinzhi’s yard with a flick of her sleeves.
“Fourth sister, Madam personally made this soup for you and the eldest daughter. Come back with Madam to try it!” Madam whispered to Bai Jinzhi, “Madam still loves you!”
“I know! I know!” Bai Jinzhi nodded happily, “Mammy, please say good things about me in front of mother!”
“Don’t worry, Fourth Sister!”
Bai Jinzhi patted her chest. She had finally escaped. It was just a thousand copies of “The Women’s Ring”! If she copied it a dozen times and cried out that her hands hurt, her mother would be so distressed that she would ask her to copy it again in a few days. Then she would forget it…
Bai Jinzhi hurriedly caught up with his mother, took Li’s arm and went to his own yard with Li.

Inside the Boyun Courtyard.
The third wife, Mrs. Li, the fourth wife, Mrs. Wang, and the fifth wife, Mrs. Qi, just sat here for a while before leaving Boyun Courtyard with the fifth, sixth, and eighth girls, leaving time for Mrs. Dong and Bai Qingyan, mother and daughter, to have a private conversation.
Dong Tingzhen was not someone who didn’t have good taste. Not long after the ladies and girls left, she smiled and said she was going to make some snacks for Bai Qingyan, then left Boyun Courtyard and went straight to the small kitchen.
After Nanny Tong and the others had left, she came to Bai Qingyan and carefully inquired about Bai Qingyan’s injuries. Tears fell down her face, and she felt so distressed that she wished she could suffer for Bai Qingyan.
Why is it so difficult for their eldest daughter? She has to scheme to get herself hurt if she wants to go back to Shuoyang.
After talking with Nanny Tong for a while, Bai Qingyan smiled and told Nanny Tong about bringing Yinshuang back and asked Nanny Tong to go see Yinshuang.
As soon as Nanny Tong left, Bai Qingyan dismissed her attendants. Nanny Qin and Chuntao stood guard at the door of the upper room in Boyun Courtyard. They took out the sheepskin map hidden on their bodies, unfolded it on the small black lacquered square table, raised their eyes and looked at Dong with red eyes: “Mother… look!”
Mrs. Dong glanced at her daughter suspiciously, her eyes fell on the sheepskin map. When she saw the words on the map, her eyes widened suddenly, she snatched up the map, staring at the words carefully, her hands trembling… a layer of mist suddenly rose in her eyes, as if she was about to see through the sheepskin map!
“Abao, this…” Dong’s voice trembled. She turned to look at Bai Qingyan, but was afraid of missing something, so her eyes fell on the sheepskin map.
“Mother…” Bai Qingyan reached out and grasped Dong’s hand tightly, choking with sobs, “Ayu is still alive! He is in Nanrong… This is what Ayu asked Lupin to bring to me! Mother, Ayu is alive!”
Dong bit her lower lip tightly and almost couldn’t hold back her tears.
Ever since the incident in Southern Xinjiang involving the Bai family, no one knew how the Dong family had managed to survive for so many days and nights.
Her husband…and son have not been able to come back from southern Xinjiang. If it weren’t for the fact that she still needed to help her daughter support the Bai family, and if it weren’t for the uncertain marriage situation of Abao, she would have wanted to follow her husband and son.
She thought that she could only see her husband and son again after she died, but she didn’t expect… God had mercy on her and her son was still alive!
Dong was so excited that she didn’t care about her manners. She blinked her eyes to squeeze out tears, carefully distinguished the handwriting on the map, and repeatedly rubbed it with her fingers, but she didn’t dare to use too much force for fear of rubbing off the handwriting. She suppressed her tears and turned her head to ask Bai Qingyan with laughter and tears: “Is this really Ayu’s handwriting?! Really?!”
Bai Qingyan looked at Dong’s expression, choking with sobs, and nodded with a smile: “Mother, Ayu is now in Nanrong, preparing for the future! The news that Ayu is alive… must not be known to the royal family! So for the time being… you can’t tell anyone at home, mother, just know it in your heart.”
