After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

"We have been sisters-in-law for more than ten years, after all." Li smiled stiffly. She asked someone to bring the four study treasures and the Wenchang brush that she had bought earlier. "Although you and the second son have divorced and returned home, Youyou and Luochuan still have to call me aunt, right?"

Lu lowered her eyes and glanced at the thing that Madam Qian was holding. "I'll accept the gift on behalf of Luochuan. You should take it back."

"Just accept the things. After all, Luochuan is still a child of the Bai family, and the blood relationship can never be severed."

Li took the thing and stuffed it into Bai Youyou's hands, "Youyou, keep it for your brother, and give it to him after you finish the exam."

Bai Youyou put her hands behind her back and said, "Madam Hou, I have severed my relationship with the Bai family. I can't do this for you."

"You kid, your father was also angry at Yaoyao's provocation and lost his mind for a while, why are you also competing with him?"

Hearing her scolding tone, Lu immediately became furious. She stopped Bai Youyou behind her and said angrily, "Is what Bai Yanlang did as a father should do? Not only did he send a letter of severance in public, he also sent people to deliberately spread rumors that I, Youyou, have a vicious mind and bully others by taking advantage of my power!"

"You said it so lightly, and you just lost your mind for a moment and casually let it go. If the knife didn't stick in your body, of course you wouldn't feel any pain!"

"I'm telling you, Li, my son has severed ties with the Bai family. Don't come here to lecture her as an elder. There is no shortage of elders in the Zhenguo Mansion, and my son doesn't need anyone to teach him!"

"Youyou is smart and clever, so she doesn't need anyone to preach to her."

Mrs. Li blushed at Lu's merciless words. She pulled the corner of her lips in dismay, "Even though the second brother doesn't say anything, Youyou and Zhengnan are always family members who are connected by blood. The blood between them is thicker than water. No matter what, this relationship can't be severed with just a piece of paper, right?"

"Stop using these high-sounding words. I don't even recognize Bai Yanlang as my son, so how can I recognize your cousin? You want to use this shallow blood relationship to kidnap my daughter? No way!"

Lu spat with disdain, took Bai Youyou's hand and walked past Li.

Bai Youyou looked at Li's face that looked like a palette, and tried hard to press the corners of her lips.

Given the eldest wife's nature of not doing anything without profit, she must have something to ask for when she stretched out her face to be slapped by Lu this time.

I just don’t know what I’m asking for.

Bai Youyou returned to her courtyard and immediately called Lu Qi over, "Go to the Yongning Marquis's Mansion now and find out what happened in the first house. Also, put aside what you are doing and keep an eye on Bai Yaoyao from now on."

She always felt that Bai Yaoyao was up to no good.

Bai Yanlang is a bit stupid, but he is not stupid enough to send people to blatantly provoke the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. He must have some confidence that makes him fearless.

Lu Qi didn't even make a sound. He came and went without a trace. He jumped out of the window and disappeared in the blink of an eye, making Bai You extremely envious.

She shook her head, quickly took out a piece of white paper, spread it on the table and started to draw the jewelry pattern again.

Everything is ready for Baozhu Tower. Now we just need to wait for the blueprint to come out so that the goldsmiths and silversmiths can start making it, and then we can choose an auspicious day to open it.

Xiaoju came in with the brewed milk tea, "Miss, Miss Zhao is here."

"What are you busy with?"

Zhao Qianqian was not shy and sat down on the chair as soon as she came in.

Looking at the half-finished sample on white paper, he was a little surprised, "Are you going to make jewelry with pearls?"

"Well, Qi Lian and I decided to use pearls as the main item for our Baozhulou."

Bai Youyou collected the things on the table, and Xiaoju put the milk tea on the table.

Zhao Qianqian took the pot of milk tea and poured a cup for each of them. Then she took out a piece of thin paper from her sleeve and placed it in front of her.

"Whether this thing can succeed or not, you have to figure it out on your own."

Bai Youyou took it and saw the method of making colored glaze written on it. She raised the corners of her lips and asked with a smile, "Qin Ran, is it done?"

"Well, it's done, but her identity is sensitive, so I was asked to give it to you."

It was nothing for Qin Ran to go to Yongning Marquis' Mansion a few times, but the situation at Zhenguogong Mansion was special. If Qin Ran came too often, someone with ulterior motives might use it to attack her, which would be disadvantageous to Zhenguogong Mansion.

"Thank her for me."

Bai Youyou accepted it without hesitation.

Zhao Qianqian held the teacup and sipped the milk tea with a very satisfied look on her face.

Suddenly thinking of that incident, she smiled gossipingly, "Do you know what your great aunt asked my mother for yesterday?"

"what's up?"

Bai Youyou was drinking the milk tea with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

"Pfft!"

Zhao Qianqian couldn't help laughing before she even opened her mouth.

She put down the teacup in her hand and tried to hold back her laughter as she said, "Your eldest aunt went to ask my mother to ask my grandmother to find the wife of Confucius the Scholar to act as a matchmaker between your cousin Bai Zhenzhen and Jingzhao Yin Xu."

"You actually asked your mother for help?"

Bai Youyou knew that Li had a crush on Xu Lingyun, but she was really surprised that she had to go to the Zhao Mansion for help.

"Yes." Zhao Qianqian was very happy. "No wonder Bai Zhenzhen behaved like that on the day of the investigation. It turns out that Wang Ba had already set his eyes on Lord Xu."

"So your mother agreed?"

"Yes."

Zhao Qianqian nodded, "My grandmother also agreed. I should go to the Kong Mansion today to talk to Madam Kong."

She changed the subject, "But my grandmother also said that whether this matter will be successful or not still depends on Lord Xu's approval. It's not that no one has come to my grandmother to propose marriage to Lord Xu before. My grandmother also likes to be lively. Whenever someone comes to ask for help, she will go to the Confucius Mansion."

"They call it a beautiful name, there are crooked trees in clusters, but there are not many good bamboos, and we can't let such a good boy like him be lonely for the rest of his life."

Bai Youyou laughed, "Your grandmother is also a funny and humorous old lady."

"She is very quiet in front of outsiders. She doesn't show her knees when sitting and doesn't show her teeth when smiling. But when there are no outsiders around, she becomes a chatterbox."

When talking about her grandmother, Zhao Qianqian's eyes and eyebrows unconsciously raised up.

When Bai Youyou thought of Old Mrs. Qiao, she suddenly felt a toothache, but when she thought of her grandmother, her brows softened.

It is impossible for everyone in this world to like you, but just like the people you like, and other people and things are insignificant.

"Young lady, this is the spring shirt that the old lady made for you. Try it on and see if it fits you."

Just as I thought of my grandmother, Nanny Jiang came in from the door, holding a tray with two plum-colored and emerald-green gauze dresses on them. The colors alone were pleasing to the eye.

Zhao Qianqian stood up, picked up the Sumei-colored spring shirt and shook it open, looking at the lifelike peach petals on the hem of her skirt, her eyes filled with amazement.

"Your grandmother has such a handy hand!"

People who love you don't need to say much, their actions will prove it.
