The middle-aged man said indifferently, “How could Bai Xianyu live here? She’s a phoenix on a parasol tree. Even if she wants to rest, she has to choose a place of grandeur.”
“That’s right,” the young man agreed.
Old Madam’s expression immediately turned ugly. “You can say these things here, but don’t say it in front of Xianyu. She’s Xing’er’s daughter and your niece!”
She turned to the young man again. “And you, put away your spineless look. That’s your cousin. Why would she despise her mother’s family?”
The two men stopped talking and drank their tea.
Bai Xianyu and the others quickly arrived at the Yu family’s door.
When they got out of the carriage, they saw a woman standing beside an old lady, looking at them in disbelief.
Bai Xianyu’s gaze met theirs and she smiled.
“Wait! Come back. Xianyu seems to have arrived.”
Yu Fengyan hurriedly called out to the servants and helped the old lady forward with a smile.
Bai Xianyu also walked in with a smile. These two must be her grandmother and aunt.
“Good child, you’ve grown so tall.” Yu Fengyan raised her head and touched her face. “I was about to send someone to the docks to pick you up. I didn’t expect you to have arrived.”
“Hello, Grandmother. Hello, Aunt.” Bai Xianyu’s red lips curled up slightly. “The boat was fast, so we arrived earlier.”
“Aiyo, let Grandmother hug you.” Old Madam’s eyes were red, and she could not stop tearing. “You really look like your mother.”
Bai Xianyu quietly let her hug her for a while. Then, Old Madam held her hand and walked in. “Come, come, come. Grandmother got someone to make delicious food. I don’t know what you like to eat, but Grandmother got someone to make some famous dishes in the capital. Come and see if they suit your taste…”
Bai Li followed behind Bai Xianyu while Green Pearl went to tidy up Bai Xianyu’s room with the maidservants and servants of the Yu Residence.
At the dining table, only one dish was served. Bai Xianyu saw that two men had already taken their seats.
Yu Fengyan smiled and introduced, “This is your uncle, and this is your cousin.”
Bai Xianyu greeted them one by one and sat down.
Yu Boquan was stunned for a moment before introducing himself. “Cousin, my name is Yu Boquan.”
Xu Maoping said, “Xianyu is from the capital. I’m sure you won’t like these dishes.”
Bai Xianyu’s smile faded a little. “Uncle, you must be joking. We eat home-cooked dishes at home, and delicious home-cooked dishes have to be eaten with family.”
Yu Boquan changed his cold attitude from before and said rather warmly, “That’s right. Cousin, you’re right. How can home-cooked dishes be divided into upper and lower class? For example, I’m well-read in poetry and books. I’m an elementary scholar from the imperial exams and even got into the top 20. Compared to the other high-level scholars, although I’m a little inferior in terms of reputation, we’re all scholars. There’s no difference between high and low levels. I think compared to most scholars, my true talent is not inferior to theirs.”
There was a hint of pride in his voice. After he finished speaking, he stared straight at Bai Xianyu, as if he was waiting to see her reaction.
Bai Xianyu smiled faintly and continued eating.
Yu Fengyan looked a little embarrassed and picked up some food for Bai Xianyu. “Xianyu, eat more. Look at how thin you are.”
Bai Xianyu was actually not too thin, but her frame was small and her face was exquisite. She looked exceptionally graceful compared to her peers.
Yu Boquan also said, “It’s not good to be too thin. Cousin, you should eat more. Otherwise, how can you find a husband in the future? 1 prefer you to be more plump. You should look better than now.”
A trace of impatience flashed across Bai Xianyu’s eyes.
Old Madam interrupted him sternly. “Eat your food. Hurry up and go to school after eating. What’s there to be proud of to be an elementary scholar in your twenties? I heard that the Young Marquis of the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor, the Six Yuan Top Scholar, is only in his teens.”
Bai Xianyu was a little surprised. The news of Xie Xingyun’s being the top scholar had actually spread to Liang Province?
Yu Boquan wanted to refute, but Xu Maoping said, “Quan’er, don’t talk when you eat or when you sleep.”
He shut up resentfully.
After dinner, Old Madam and Yu Fengyan chatted with Bai Xianyu for a while before letting her go.
On the way back, Bai Li frowned and said, “Miss, Yu Boquan is following us.”
Bai Xianyu said calmly, “Just scare him.”
Yu Boquan pretended to walk with them casually. When he saw Bai Xianyu and her guard turn the corner, he quickened his pace and followed them!
However, with a sudden whoosh, a dagger brushed past the bridge of his nose and almost cut off his nose bone!
He carefully stepped back, but in the next second, a sword flew over next and almost cut off his crotch!
Yu Boquan peed his pants. “Who… who!”
Only then did Bai Li walk over from the corner. When he saw him, he exclaimed in surprise, “I thought it was some thief. So it’s Young Master Yu.”
Yu Boquan swallowed.
“It’s a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding,” Bai Li said. “Fortunately, I saw clearly that it was you, Young Master Yu. Otherwise, this sword would have landed on the real place.”
He smiled. “Young Master Yu, it’s best if you don’t let me misunderstand. Otherwise, the sword won’t have eyes…”
After Bai Li left, Bai Xianyu walked into the house herself. The Yu family residence was not very big. For someone like her, who was used to seeing twists and turns, it was not difficult to find the way.
Before Bai Xianyu could take a step into the courtyard, she suddenly stepped on empty void!
The large palm at her waist had a familiar heat as he carried her over.
Xie Xingyun leaned against the big tree in front of the courtyard as if he had been waiting for a long time, and a small leaf fell on his shoulder.
Bai Xianyu was slightly stunned. Thereafter, an unknown surprise swept through his body.
She blinked blankly and did not push him away.
Xie Xingyun immediately raised his eyebrows, his unrestrained eyebrows brimming with joy.
He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. “Why are you so obedient these days?”
She did not push him or call him a bastard..
