Chapter 709
The old lady is no longer able
Bai Heran nodded, took the box of dessert from winter snow, and brought it to the old lady, "I went to the palace to pay my respects, and happened to meet Concubine Kang. She was trying out the new dessert in the imperial kitchen in the palace, saying it was made of fruit fillings and it was delicious, so she asked Aran to bring a few pieces for her grandmother to taste."
She opened the box and Tan came over. When she saw that there were only six snacks in the box, she turned dark.
"This sister-in-law is too stingy. She just gives her a little snack to her mother? What's enough for? Is it enough for a meal?"
Bai Heran also despised Concubine Kang in his heart, but he still had to make the scene come back. After all, he didn't want the old lady to be sad! So he quickly said, "Second Aunt, it was made in the imperial kitchen. There were only a few pieces in total when I sent it to Xingyun Palace. I ate a few bites when I saw my aunt, and the rest was brought to my grandmother."
The old lady nodded repeatedly, "The palace rules are very good. If someone gives them, you can get them, but if they don't give them, it will be difficult to get them. Oh, it's not easy for her. Mingzhu is not easy. She only has so many pieces in total, and she still thinks about me." Speaking of this, the old lady wiped her tears, "I pity my Mingzhu entered the palace early. Once she entered the palace, she had no freedom. She couldn't get out, and I couldn't get in, and the mother and daughter separated. Fortunately, there is A Ran now, A Ran, and you go and see your aunt more in the future."
Bai Heran scolded Bai Mingzhu eight hundred times in his heart, but he had to nod his head and respond, "Don't worry, Grandma, A Ran will do it."
The old lady nodded, reached out and pinched a piece of snack and put it in her mouth, "It's delicious, it's sour and sweet, it's sour and sweet, so it can't be put down after taking a bite!" She said and pushed the box to Tan again, "You can eat it too."
Tan shook his head, "I won't eat it anymore. There's only that in total. It's my sister-in-law's wish. My mother will keep it for her own food!"
Bai Heran was already instructing Moyu to put down all the other things, and then said, "My aunt has also received a lot of gifts, but it is not something that can be eaten ready. I look back and take a look at it slowly." After that, he said to Tan again: "I am anxious to come here today and I have no preparations. I originally thought that I would come to see my grandmother and second aunt again in two days, but I didn't expect to meet my aunt and come after it came. Second Aunt is heavy and thinks that her appetite is special. Aran doesn't know what her second aunt likes to eat, but after weighing it for a long time, she didn't buy anything."
Tan Shi didn't care about this. After all, Bai Heran was the savior of the child in her belly. When she made a fuss in the ancestral hall of the Duke's Mansion, if Bai Heran had not been able to save her child, how could she care about being polite?
So he waved his hands repeatedly, "A Ran, you don't have to be polite to your second aunt. We are all a family, so there is no need to mess with those vulgar ones."
Bai Xingwu also said rudely: "Your second aunt is right. The family doesn't speak two families. A Ran, you rarely come to the door. Since you are here, don't rush to leave. Have dinner here before going back. Uncle second will ask someone to prepare lunch."
Bai Heran quickly stopped him: "Don't be busy, I really have something to do, I can't keep it for lunch." While stopping Bai Xingwu, she roughly talked about the West's shoreless sea, indicating that she would set off to Qingzhou in a few days and would prepare for her trip these days, and she was so busy that she was busy.
Bai Xingwu was helpless. This was really a problem. He was not willing to stay for dinner, so he didn't give in. He just told her to be careful when going out and bring more followers. When he arrived at Qingzhou Prefecture, he had to be more alert. Daxiao was not a joke. He could not take himself in to save people. His life was the most important thing.
For a moment, the old lady and Tan also reminded her that Tan even had to prepare dry food for her.
Bai Heran quickly stood up and said goodbye. She couldn't resist this. She just stuffed a silver note to Tan before leaving and told her: "I probably couldn't come back when my little cousin was born. This is a gift for me to congratulate my little cousin. Second aunt will collect it for me first. When I come back from Qingzhou Prefecture, I will definitely buy more fun things along the way for my little cousin to play with."
Tan Shi didn't care about the silver bill because Bai Heran was shocked by her little cousin, "A Ran, do you think I'm pregnant with a boy? What a boy?"
Bai Heran nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, second aunt, you can't make a mistake."
"That's great!" Tan Shi was so happy. "A doctor said it was a boy before, but I didn't dare to believe it, but this time, A Ran said it, then I believe it. It's great, I can finally have a son."
When Tan Shi said this, he subconsciously looked out of the hall and his voice lowered. This reminded Bai Heran of Bai Qianjiao. It seemed that the two of them started to fight because the child in Tan Shi was provoked by Bai Huayan.
If Tan Shi really gave birth to a son, Bai Qianjiao would be in a worse mood, right? This situation should be promptly eased, otherwise it would easily cause the girl's heart to be distorted.
So she kindly reminded: "Second Aunt, my son is good, but my daughter is also a caring little cotton-padded jacket."
Tan said repeatedly: "I understand, I understand."
He was happily sent out of Xiaobai Mansion. Seeing the carriage moving far away, Tan looked at the silver notes in his hand and his eyes widened in an instant.
One thousand taels, this move is really generous, but she also understands that it is impossible for someone to give such a big gift just by giving birth to a child, mainly because the old lady lives here and thanks them for taking care of the old lady.
After the white crane dyed off the carriage, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Moyu asked her: "Does the lady think it's quite stressful to do this for Concubine Kang?"
Bai Heran nodded, "Yes, I'm talking nonsense with my eyes open, how could I be stressful? I have to pay some of the snacks for her. I have to pay some of them, no matter how I think about it, I lose money. Fortunately, I didn't give it to outsiders, and it was not much for my grandmother."
Outside the carriage, Ma Pingchuan asked loudly, "Miss, where are we going?"
She thought for a while, "Go home first, I'll get something, and then we'll go to the Zun Prince's Mansion." She wanted to go see Jiang Yue, but she hadn't seen it for some days, at least she had to leave enough medicine before leaving.
But no one expected that when Bai Heran returned to the mansion and took the medicine and came out, the carriage of Xiaobai Mansion rushed to the Duke's Mansion. As soon as the person driving the car rushed over, he said anxiously: "Miss Second, go and have a look. The old lady seems to be poisoned, I'm afraid... it's not good."
"What?" Bai Heran was shocked, "How could the old lady be poisoned?"
"I don't know what's going on. The master only told me to come and invite you, as if I said it was for the snack."
Bai Heran's eyebrows immediately frowned. He didn't have to think too much about it. He took Moyu and Dongtianxue into the carriage. At the same time, he ordered Yingchun, who sent her out, to say, "Go and notify the master to go to the second master's mansion immediately, and then he said that something happened to the old lady."
Yingchun turned around and ran to the mansion, but Bai Heran ordered Mo Yu: "Don't follow me, hurry up and go to the Jinsheng Pavilion, and ask the fourth lady to send you into the palace to meet the Empress. He said that something happened to the old lady at home, so please ask the Empress to agree to Concubine Kang out of the palace to visit."
Mo Yuyi immediately got out of the car and headed straight to the stable.
Fortunately, because I was going to see Jiang Yue, the medicine box was brought with me. The group got on Ma Pingchuan's car. Xiaobai Mansion's car followed far behind, but after a while, it was lost because Ma Pingchuan's car was too fast.
Dao Guang and Ma Pingchuan were sitting outside the carriage together. On the way, he couldn't help but lift the curtain and said, "No matter how you think about it, I think there is something wrong with Concubine Kang's snacks. However, I didn't go to the palace with my master, and I didn't know what was going on at that time. Master, think about it carefully, did Concubine Kang have any special actions."
Dong Tianxue asked, "Since the lady asked Moyu to come to the palace to invite Concubine Kang, do you think there is something wrong with that snack?"
Bai Heran shook her head, "It's hard to say. I haven't seen my grandmother now, and it's hard to make a conclusion. But if it's really poisoned, I can't rule out the suspicion of Kangpin, but..." She frowned, "I took the snacks out of the palace and I gave them to the old lady. There is a very important part in this, that is, the snacks out of my hand. If Kangpin denies, then the suspicion is on me."
"Despicable!" Dong Tianxue rolled her eyes in anger, "The old lady is her biological mother. What did she think? I just said, how could my daughter give her only six snacks to her mother? It turns out that there are tricks to these six snacks. But why is this? Even if the mother and daughter are not in deep feelings, they will not be so ill-handed? Or is she coming for the master?"
Dong Tianxue felt that she guessed correctly, and Bai Heran felt that she guessed correctly, and couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that I refused to speak to the Sixth Princess in the palace because I offended that aunt." Speaking of this, my eyes were helpless and gradually changed to a sharp look, "But no matter why, she shouldn't reach out to the old lady. It would be fine if this was not done by her. If it was really her, I wouldn't let her go. Framed me, you can't live, poison my grandmother, and you can't live."
Dong Tianxue saw the fierce look in her master's eyes and knew that her master was really angry. But even if she was angry, could she really make Concubine Kang unable to survive? She sighed softly in her heart, not optimistic about how Bai Heran could really do Concubine Kang. After all, there was an old lady here. After Mrs. Bai who had just met in Xiaobai's mansion, she heard Mrs. Bai's protection and longing for her daughter, she felt that even if Bai Mingzhu took action, the old lady would not agree to Bai Heran avenge her, and would even plead for Concubine Kang.
What could Bai Heran think of a question that she could think of? To be honest, if she could help Concubine Kang protect this mother-daughter relationship, she would help the top leader. It was not for Concubine Kang, but for the old lady to gain a peaceful old age.
Unfortunately, what's the use of just being dedicated to protecting her? As a daughter, she has brought the black man to her own mother. How can she fulfill this affection?
The carriage finally stopped. She saw Madam Li waiting at the door of the mansion. When she saw it, her eyes turned red. She quickly stepped forward and said anxiously: "Miss Second, I'm finally here. Come in and take a look. The old lady is afraid... it won't work."
