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

Chapter 417 Fortunately, this hot potato has been thrown away.

Seeing this, Bai Yanlang dared not delay any longer. He quickly asked someone to harness the carriage and ran out through a small door.

He was feeling anxious all the way.

"What if that troublemaker doesn't see me?"

"This rebellious girl doesn't recognize her relatives. What if she is unwilling to help?"

As he was muttering to himself, the carriage finally arrived at the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

He staggered out of the carriage and hurried to the door. He thought he would have to argue for a while before he could see Bai Youyou, but the doorman rolled his eyes when he saw him and invited him in directly.

Bai Yanlang was delighted and hurriedly followed the doorman to the main hall.

The servant went to report to Bai Youyou, who was currently calculating the losses on the farm. Upon hearing this, she spoke slowly, "It's not a good deal. Let him wait."

She knew Bai Yanlang's character very well. If she got an inch, he would push her further. She had to leave him alone, otherwise she would not be able to clearly know her position.

There was not even anyone serving tea in the front hall.

Bai Yanlang sat on the chair, feeling thirsty and hungry. He stretched his neck and looked out the door, "Why hasn't he come yet?"

He has been waiting from morning till evening, but where is the person?

"Hurry up and urge your little lady."

This is the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, and what Bai Yanlang did before made them hate him so much that it would be strange if anyone would listen to him.

The servant outside the door looked at his nose and pretended to be deaf.

"Hey, are you deaf?"

Bai Yanlang was about to lose his temper when Li He, who was standing beside him, quickly held his shoulders and lowered his voice, "Master, this is the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion."

What he meant was that if you ask for help, you should have the attitude of asking for help. Unfortunately, this idiot didn't understand and said with his neck stiff, "What's wrong with the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion? I'm here to look for my daughter!"

Bai Youyou, who was outside the door, heard these words as soon as she arrived. She sneered, turned around and went back to her own yard.

Mrs. Lu didn't know that Bai Youyou had let Bai Yanlang in and brought the new clothes she had made with Yang Momo for her to try on.

"You will be coming of age in half a month, and your grandmother said she would hold a grand ceremony for you."

Bai Youyou's birthday is at the end of October. In previous years, we would simply add a few dishes, cut a new dress for her, and buy her a set of jewelry.

It was a rare occasion that she had some extra money, so Mrs. Lu also wanted to hold a grand birthday party for her daughter.

Bai Youyou shook her head, "Mom, these are troubled times, let's forget about the coming-of-age ceremony for now."

She didn't have any expectations for these banquets and instead found them somewhat troublesome.

"How can that be? The coming-of-age ceremony is a major event in your life, how can you just ignore it?" Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "Just focus on your own things. I'll take care of the coming-of-age ceremony."

Bai Youyou couldn't persuade Lu, so she had to let her go.

In the front hall, Bai Yanlang became impatient and rushed into the inner courtyard despite being stopped.

He rushed all the way and saw Bai Youyou coming out of the house.

"Youyou, dad has been looking for you for a long time." Bai Yanlang's face was full of flattery.

Bai Youyou frowned and said coldly, "Can't you wait just for a moment?"

Bai Yanlang rubbed his hands and looked at her hesitantly, "Dad has been waiting since this morning and hasn't even had lunch yet."

Bai Youyou sneered, "No one is stopping you, just go back home!"

"Youyou, Dad came here today to ask you for something, you must help me!"

"Get lost! You've already severed ties with her, why are you still looking for my daughter when you have something to do? You really have such a big face!"

Lu was like a mother eagle protecting her calf, she opened her arms and stood in front of Bai Youyou, "Are you going to get out or not? If not, I'll have you kicked out!"

Bai Yanlang stamped his feet anxiously, "Oh, I was confused before, why do you keep pestering me? Get out of the way, I really have something urgent to tell Youyou."

He was just about to raise his hand to pull Lu away when Bai Youyou pulled Lu over.

"Mom, please go back and ask the kitchen to prepare dinner. I have something to say to him."

Lu immediately calmed down her angry face and said softly, "Okay, I'll prepare your favorite food for you right away."

The speed at which his expression changed was so fast that Bai Yanlang was stunned for a moment.

Mrs. Lu passed by him and looked him up and down with disdain, "My daughter has severed ties with you, don't be so shameless to claim her as your daughter!"

After saying that, he immediately took Yang Momo away.

Bai Yanlang was so angry that he wanted to yell, but Bai Youyou glanced at him calmly, "Think carefully about what you are here for today. If you want to quarrel, I will have someone ask you to leave!"

Bai Yanlang's anger was stuck in his throat.

He pulled the corner of his mouth and laughed dryly: "Youyou, you know about Zhen Nifang, right?"

Bai Youyou raised her eyebrows but pursed her lips and said nothing.

Bai Yanlang looked at her cautiously, "Youyou, how about changing those Zhen Ni Fang shops to your Yun Ni Fang? All these merchants will buy goods from you in the future, okay?"

The reason those people are making a fuss now is simply because the costs are high. They can't sell at a high price, and they will lose money if they sell at a low price.

If we get the goods from Yunnifang, they will definitely not make trouble again.

"Zhen Ni Fang belongs to the prince, why are you begging me?"

"The prince gave us the recipe and said we could run the business on our own, but we didn't know the cost would be so high." Bai Yanlang looked regretful, "If I had known the cost would be so high, I wouldn't have given him the recipe."

"I can't help you with this matter, but I can show you a way."

Bai Youyou asked Xiaoju to fetch the contract on the desk and handed him the contract with the word "one year" written on it in cinnabar.

Bai Yanlang took the contract and looked at the part painted with cinnabar with some doubt, "Isn't this the contract signed by the prince?"

"You can't understand it with your brain, so you should go back and show it to the Marquis of Yongning or the old lady."

Not wanting to waste time talking to him, Bai Youyou went into the house after she finished speaking.

In the yard, Bai Yanlang was holding the deed that he had handled countless times every day and was somewhat confused.

"Master, let's go back and find the Marquis. Maybe he knows."

Li He couldn't guess Bai Youyou's intention, but in the Marquis' Mansion, the old lady and the Marquis were definitely the most cunning people.

The two of them drove the carriage back to the mansion in a hurry.

The Yongning Marquis Mansion was still crowded with people, and it seemed that there were a lot more people than before. The streets of the Yongning Marquis Mansion were so crowded that even the roads were blocked.

Bai Yanlang was discovered as soon as he got off the carriage.

"Master Bai is here!!"

Someone shouted and the crowd rushed towards him, surrounding the carriage tightly.

"Master Bai, you have to give us an explanation for this matter!"

"Yes, you must give us an explanation!"

Zhu San saw everything that happened in the Yongning Marquis' Mansion and he was still frightened.

If the recipe had not been given out, these people would have surrounded the gate of the East Palace today.

Fortunately, this hot potato has been thrown away.
