Carrying the little lucky star, leading the villain on the road to exile

Chapter 11. Mrs. Bai

"Silly girl, if your heart doesn't beat, it will be bad." Bai Suihe left the house smoothly and was in a good mood. Fortunately, her five-month-old belly could be covered with a loose dress. If the belly was bigger, it would definitely not be hidden from the mother-in-law. "I won't do it next time. You need to practice your courage. Look at how calm Dongmei is."

"Miss, do you want to have it again next time?" Chunxiang was anxious. It was so exciting that she really couldn't do it.

"Don't worry, I will leave the house openly next time." Bai Suihe laughed softly.

"How can it be so easy?" Chunxiang thought that it was not a festival these days, and now the young lady was pregnant, so it was impossible for her to attend the banquet, let alone leave the house.

"Don't worry, I have a good plan for your young lady," Bai Suihe said confidently.

Chunxiang obviously didn't believe it. If the lady really had a good plan, she wouldn't let her take the risk of pretending here.

The master and servant packed up quickly, and Dongmei also brought the things back to the yard with two maids.

Bai Suihe only took a part of it, and asked Dongmei to distribute the rest to the servants in the yard. This was also the benefit of their third house, so everyone knew that Dongmei and Chunxiang would sneak out of the house from time to time.

After running for a long time, Bai Suihe was so tired that he lay on the bed and couldn't move after dinner. He fell asleep in a short while.

However, she didn't know that after she fell asleep, her body was glowing with a faint blue light. Bai Suihe stretched comfortably and turned over to fall asleep.

She was heartless, and Mrs. Bai couldn't even eat.

"What does He'er want to do?" Mrs. Bai was really puzzled. Her daughter took out all the silver she had saved to see what she was buying.
Rice, flour, salt, oil, coarse cloth and hemp rope, pots and pans, cotton cloth, dried meat and sausages...

"With so many things, is she planning to open a grocery store?" Even if it's a grocery store, it doesn't need so many things. With a capital of two thousand taels, you can open a big one.

"Madam, I have already ordered someone to go down and do the work. What do you think about this?"

Madam Bai rolled her eyes at her and said, "You've already ordered people to do the job, how can I stop you?"

Wu Qingshui chuckled and said, "This old servant knew that Madam would go along with Young Miss, so he made his own decision.

It seems that the young lady is more stable than before. Is there something we don't know about?"

Madam Bai, "What do you mean? Has there been any change in Shangjing?"

Wu Qingshui shook his head in fear. "I dare not think so. I just wonder if the young lady, after all, is the daughter-in-law of the Minister of War, knows something that we don't know."

"If you put it that way, it's not impossible. By the way, are you saying that He'er asked me to go to the Gu Mansion when I have time?"

"That's what the young lady said. If the lady is not free, she will find a way to go back to the mansion at that time."

"It's not easy for this girl to come out as someone's daughter-in-law." If she really had the freedom to walk around, she wouldn't pretend to be a maid and leave the house. "Tomorrow morning, you arrange for someone to deliver a visiting card to the Gu Mansion, and then visit them the day after tomorrow. He'er has been pregnant for such a long time, and as a mother, I should also pay her a visit."

"Yes, ma'am," Wu Qingshui said, "ma'am, do you want to prepare anything?"

"Prepare two carts of generous gifts," Mrs. Bai sighed. Although their children are now in-laws, the Bai family still has to please the Gu family. If they come to visit, they have to take care of all the masters, big and small.

He made a list of gifts and asked someone to send it to the housekeeper to arrange, then turned and went into the backyard to deal with today's trivial matters.

☆Bai Suihe had the palace doctor to help her spread the word, and the whole palace felt that the fetus in her belly was unstable, and no one dared to rush forward to cause trouble. If something went wrong, they would become the scapegoat.

Gu Antong followed her mother to the street for a walk, but still couldn't pick out any jewelry that suited her. Later she thought about it and understood. Even if it was her third aunt's dowry, how many people could remember it after more than a year?

Besides, a gift from an elder cannot be refused. If Third Aunt voluntarily gives it to me, what can outsiders say?

Just when I was about to go again and ask my grandmother to help me, I received the news that the person had collapsed again because of an unstable fetus.

Gu Antong could only grit her teeth but didn't dare to speak again.

If something happens and she forces her aunt to get a headdress, causing her to have a miscarriage, then she will have no reputation.

"Tong'er, why don't we change our clothes?" Liu Yun also knew that she couldn't offend anyone at this moment. Didn't she see that even the old lady told the third house not to ask for respect and set rules anymore?

The powerful old lady knew to avoid suspicion, and the mother and daughter were even less likely to step forward.

"But, mother, among so many clothes, I only like this one." Gu Antong didn't know why, but she always felt that this dress could bring her good luck. If she could add the headgear of her third aunt, it would attract more people's attention. Her life's destiny also depended on it.

"Why are you so stubborn, kid?" Liu Yun looked at the servants around her and asked them to leave before she softly soothingly said, "Do you think anyone in the main courtyard wouldn't be tempted?
If your grandfather knew about this, even the old lady wouldn't be able to protect you.

These rules were set by your grandfather at that time. Anyone who dared to break them would be killed by him as a warning to others.

You see, the Gu Mansion has many rules, but they are just for show.

Back then, in order to marry your father off to a noble lady, your grandfather spread the family rules he had set throughout the capital city.

But which of these families in Beijing is not a shrewd person?
The Gu family is poor, and no one in the entire Gu family can help. Otherwise, your grandfather wouldn't have promised me to your father."

When Liu Yun said this, she chuckled and said that at that time, those sisters did not think it was a good marriage, but just a poor man who had suddenly become rich.

But she married into the family happily. Besides the fact that she was a concubine's daughter and it was impossible for her to marry into a wealthy family, she also liked the fact that men could not take concubines. Sure enough, over the years, even though she only gave birth to a son and a daughter, Mr. Gu helped stop the old lady from breaking the family rules for the sake of his reputation.

Otherwise, with the old lady's personality, there would be countless concubines in this mansion.

"The dowry that Bai brought in, not to mention that we are jealous, even the one in the main courtyard has hinted at it, both overtly and covertly. I don't know if Bai is really stupid, or if she pretended not to understand and refused to let her succeed."

Liu Yun said this with a sigh, "What a pity! If the one from the main courtyard could succeed, we wouldn't be in such a passive position today.

But you have to remember, this matter cannot be initiated by our family. It won’t be long before the second family will take the initiative to attack.”

"Then you took me to my grandmother yesterday to ask for help?"

"I'm just testing the waters. It wasn't me who actually asked, but your grandmother." Liu Yun raised an eyebrow and looked at her daughter. "Besides, we didn't want it before, we just wanted to borrow it."

As for borrowing it, it was borrowed based on your ability, and when to pay it back, we will talk about it later.
