The poisonous woman is frivolous, please be gentle with me, Your Highness.

Chapter 79: Really Disobedient
"Unfortunately, this is all the tea I have. It's not enough for me to drink. I believe you, the Second Master of the Bai family, may not be short of this tea." These teas were left by the original owner. Although she inherited the original owner's memory and knew how to stir-fry tea, she did not plan to stir-fry it anymore.

What is left now can indeed be called the last ones.

After all, these were originally researched by the original owner for Bai Yushu!
But she didn't expect that all these years, her affection had all been thanks to Bai Qianyi.

So she doesn't plan to do it again in the future.

I……

Bai Yushu's lips moved slightly, he wanted to say something but didn't know what to say. He wanted to say that he didn't come for tea, but now, if not for tea, what else could he come for?

"Why are you still here? If there's nothing else, I'm going to rest." Bai Qianxi mercilessly ordered him to leave.

She had already reminded him what she needed to remind him of, and she had done her best to be fair to him. As for whether he could figure it out on his own, it was none of her business.

Bai Yushu left in silence, feeling extremely confused. He didn't even know how to get out of the courtyard. Where should he go now?

On the other hand, Bai Qianyi just learned from the maid who was observing Bai Yushu's whereabouts that the first thing her second brother did after returning from the palace was to go to Bai Qianxi.

My heart suddenly began to panic, wondering if my second brother had already known about it.

No, no, impossible!
Given my second brother’s personality, if he really knew, he would come to find me the first time. Since he didn’t come, it proves that he doesn’t know yet.

At most, there are some doubts.

She couldn't panic or lose her composure.

"Tell me, where did our second brother go after he left that little bitch?" Bai Qianyi asked the maid who was following him.

"Second Master, Second Master should be coming towards the girl. When I saw something was wrong, I immediately took a shortcut back." There was still a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

"I understand." Bai Qianxi calmed herself down.

Then she called her personal maid and said, "Go and guard the door. If you see my second brother coming, tell her that I have gone to bed."

As soon as Bai Yushu reached the gate of Bai Qianyi's courtyard, he saw a maid coming out. "What is your girl doing now? Is it inconvenient for us to go in?"

"Greetings, Second Master. The young lady has just been feeling a little unwell and has gone to bed. I wonder if there is anything wrong, Second Master? I will go and wake the young lady up right away." The maid bowed respectfully.

Bai Yushu was already feeling confused, and he didn't expect that today was such an unfortunate time. Fifth sister wanted to rest, and Yi'er was already asleep.

"Since your girl is resting, don't disturb her. It's not a big deal. I'll come over tomorrow and it will be the same. By the way, your girl is not feeling well. Is that okay?"

If you ignore Bai Yushu's furrowed brow, his relaxed look can indeed fool many people.

But unfortunately, even if the maid saw through Bai Yushu's thoughts, she would not agree to let him in to see the girl.

Knowing that Bai Qianyi was fine and just a little tired from the banquet today, Bai Yushu relaxed a little.

Leaving the yard disappointed, Bai Yushu kept recalling the whole matter in his mind, trying to sort out the causes and consequences of the incident, but no matter how he looked at it, the matter seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mystery.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see the truth behind the fog.

"Ah! Second Master, I'm sorry!"

Bai Yushu was walking while thinking about things and accidentally bumped into the person in front of him. Suddenly, the water in the other person's bucket spilled all over the floor, but he kept apologizing.

"It's okay, it's not your fault. I wasn't paying attention to the road." Bai Yushu spoke gently. He would not punish a servant for such a small matter.

But after seeing the appearance of the person clearly, Bai Yushu couldn't help frowning, "Aren't you Yier's maid? Why aren't you serving your master? You are so absent from your post!" It was also because Yier was too kind, and it was easy for these people to take advantage of her.

Hearing Bai Yushu's words, the maid turned pale instantly and knelt on the ground trembling, "Second Master, please spare me. I did not leave my post without permission. It was because the young lady wanted to take a bath just now, so she specifically asked me to come and fetch water. Please understand, Second Master."

The little girl lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Bai Yushu's expression. Bai Yushu's expression was indeed not good, but it was not towards the maid, but towards Bai Qianyi.

Bath...Yier is not asleep yet?
He lied to himself that he was asleep even though he was not asleep. Was he afraid of seeing me? In an instant, Bai Yushu thought of many things.

"Get up, didn't you say you were going to fetch water for the fourth girl? Don't waste time here, go ahead."

"Yes, Second Master." The little maid couldn't wait to leave, fearing that Bai Yushu would go back on his word.

Looking at her anxious back as she left, Bai Yushu felt puzzled.

After a night's rest, Bai Qianxi felt refreshed after getting up. She stretched lazily. Where should she go today?

Passing by the front hall, the Bai family was already sitting at the dining table.

"Stop, evil girl! Where are you going? Come and sit down!" Bai Yan stopped Bai Qianxi who was about to leave, his face gloomy, "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you behaved a little better at the banquet yesterday."

"It's so rare that you, father, would let me eat at the dinner table?" Bai Qianxi turned around and spoke without any politeness, her eyes full of mockery.

"What are you talking about? When did your father forbid you to come to the dinner table? I just called you on weekdays, but you didn't come. Who can you blame?" Bai Yan stared at his daughter. If her performance at the banquet yesterday had not been acceptable, would he be so nice to her?

"Father, it seems that your ability to confuse right and wrong and speak without thinking is getting better and better. Your daughter really admires you. It's a pity that I don't have your ability. There is no need to eat this meal. Let's talk about the matter."

As for whether she agrees or not, that is her business, Bai Qianxi said in a flat tone.

Bai Yan's face looked grim, and An had to force a smile at this time, "Why are you so stubborn, kid? Do you still want your father to apologize to you?"

"Hurry, Xier, stop making your father angry. Give your mother some face and sit down to eat first." An tried her best to look charitable. She discussed it with Bai Yan yesterday and found that this inconspicuous daughter was still lucky. They could find an opportunity to control her.

In this way, aren’t those noble people their destiny?

Seeing this look made Bai Qianxi feel sick. If she couldn't pretend, she shouldn't. Who was she trying to disgust by looking like this?

"Oh! Give you face? Do you have it? If you are really as the rumors say, treating everyone equally, gentle and virtuous, then it would be fine! But... are you?" Bai Qianxi said bluntly.

Bai Qianxi felt relieved, but the faces of the people present were not very good, especially Bai Yan and An Shi, who seemed to wish they could kill her with their eyes.

"Bai Qianxi, is this how you talk to your mother?" Bai Yan angrily called the servants outside the house and was about to push Bai Qianxi down.

"Father, are you going to take action because you can't convince me? But, isn't what I said the truth?" Bai Qianxi tilted her head, looking puzzled, and then turned her gaze to Bai Yushu beside her, "Second brother, do you also think what I said is wrong?"

Bai Yushu didn't know how to answer when Bai Qianxi called him out. After all, he had been away from home for many years. He thought he knew his home very well, but it seemed to have changed after he came back this time!
Thinking of this, Bai Yushu didn't know how to answer anymore. Fortunately, Bai Yan spoke in time to save him.

"Bai Qianxi, your father is talking to you, why are you bringing up your second brother?"

Bai Yushu breathed a sigh of relief silently, only feeling that the atmosphere at the scene was a bit depressing.

"Did I get involved with him? I was just asking him a question." There was no expression on Bai Qianxi's face. It seemed that Bai Yushu was hopeless.

She reminded him so many times yesterday, but he still didn't realize that something was wrong. Bai Qianxi felt a little bored.

"Eat slowly, I won't keep you company."
