Chapter 567 Second brother regrets it?

The old lady in front of the door smiled at the Bai family with the support of her maid. She was dressed luxuriously, and even though she had a full head of hair, she still made people feel that she was noble and in good spirits.

Bai Ruozhu heard the commotion and came out of the house. When she saw Mrs. Meng coming in person, she was surprised and walked forward quickly and said, "Why are you here, Mrs. Meng? How can I help you so much?"

Mrs. Meng said with a smile: "So I, the master, can't come to this yard?"

"No, no," Bai Ruozhu said hurriedly, and quickly invited Mrs. Meng in.

Mrs. Meng had a maid and Nanny Lu with her. After entering the main room, Lin Ping'er and the others hurriedly went to make tea and prepare refreshments. Mrs. Meng looked at Bai Ruozhu up and down, and said with some distress: "I have lost weight. You don’t look good either, which is really hard on you.”

Bai Ruozhu's eyes were a little red, and she smiled and said, "I'm fine, it's all over."

Mrs. Meng nodded, "You are so brave. If you were someone else, you would have to be afraid of me for at least a while. You are much calmer than I was when I was young."

Bai Ruozhu was a little embarrassed to be praised. After all, she had lived two lives, and she had experienced life and death with Jiang Yichun twice before, so she was naturally much calmer.

"By the way, I haven't been able to show my drawing to the old lady yet. Please wait for a moment and I will get it for you right away." Bai Ruozhu said and walked out of the house.

"You kid, are you still in a hurry? It's important that you take good care of yourself first." The old lady opened her mouth to stop her, but Bai Ruozhu had already walked out.

After a while, Bai Ruozhu returned with the pattern book and handed it to the old lady for inspection. Aunt Lu also came to the side and looked at it. Both of them were attracted by the exquisite patterns painted.

"I'm not good at painting. It just looks like this. It would be better to make it. Why don't I make a part with my family first and show it to the old lady to see the effect?" Bai Ruozhu said.

"No, no, no, this is good enough." The old lady said hurriedly, "Don't rush and start doing it. We'll wait until your injury is better." She said and patted the back of Bai Ruozhu's hand gently, just like an elder caring for their grandchildren.

Tea was soon served, and the old lady didn't mind it being simple, so she used some. Then she stood up and said it was time to go back. Bai Ruozhu wanted to send her to the door, but she stopped her.

After they left, Bai Ruozhu noticed that the old lady asked people to bring in a lot of things, all of which were valuable supplements and medicinal materials. She was very grateful and thought that she would come to thank her after her injury was better.

After a while, Bai Zepei came back from outside. Bai Ruozhu looked at the slightly stern eyes of his second brother and hid in fear. These days, he has been worrying about how to face his second brother. The second brother once said He didn’t hope he would regret it himself, but the second brother must have regretted it that night, right?

It was rare for Bai Zepei to see his sister as well-behaved as a kitten, with her head bowed and not daring to look at him. He couldn't help but laugh. Taking advantage of Bai Ruozhu's unpreparedness, he walked over and flicked her hard on the forehead. With a bang, Bai Ruozhu's temper that had just been suppressed was brought out.

"Second brother, what are you doing?" Bai Ruozhu stared.

"What? You still have the nerve to yell at me?" Bai Zepei planned to seize this opportunity to take care of his little sister, otherwise it would be really difficult to control her on weekdays.

Bai Ruozhu pouted, "You can't hit someone on the head. It's scary to do it so suddenly, and it's all swollen, right?"

She glanced at her second brother with an extremely resentful look, then pointed at her already red and swollen forehead, and said: "Second brother, if you play a few more times, I really won't be able to marry if I lose my appearance."

"Huh, if you can't get married, my second brother will support you for the rest of your life!" Bai Zepei almost said it through gritted teeth when he heard "marry".

Bai Ruozhu shrank her neck, okay, she was indeed the cause of this incident, so she should accept the criticism honestly.

As soon as she fainted, Bai Zepei couldn't bear to talk to her anymore. He sighed and said, "Fortunately, this matter is over. You can take good care of your body. You can see that you have lost weight."

Bai Ruozhu glanced at Deng Deng, who was being held by her mother in the hall, and twitched the corner of her mouth. It was obvious that Deng Deng had four fleshy folds on her fat legs. If she were fatter, she would be a Michelin star. They also said that Deng Deng had lost weight. , is it okay to be too fat and unhealthy?

Of course, she couldn't bear to be separated from Dengdeng anymore. From now on, she must be more careful, make money as soon as possible, and find all the guards and bodyguards.

"Yes, I understand." Bai Ruozhu replied obediently.

Bai Zepei rubbed the top of her hair this time, seeming very satisfied with how well-behaved his little sister was.

"Second brother, aren't you in Xiu Mu? Have you already started socializing after the new year?" Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but ask, thinking that Beiyu Academy was on vacation.

"I've met a lot of people this time because I'm looking for you, so I'll have a lot more social activities after the new year." Bai Zepei said it very lightly, but Bai Ruozhu heard that he owed some favors to save her.

"Thank you for your hard work, second brother." Bai Ruozhu wilted again.

Bai Zepei thought it was funny, glanced at her, and said, "Let's go inside and talk. Don't get too cold."

When they entered the house, they saw Lin Ping'er looking at them with a smile. Bai Ruozhu looked away with some embarrassment. She was really miserable this time. Even her mother learned to laugh at her.

Bai Zepei patted his clothes and went to hug Deng Deng. He didn't spend much time at home on weekdays, but whenever he was free, he would definitely hug Deng Deng.

"Second brother, if there is a need for favors, you and your mother can withdraw the money. Don't save the money and lose the favor." Bai Ruozhu thought for a while and said.

Bai Zepei nodded, "I know, our family is cold, so we don't need to be too extravagant."

Bai Ruozhu couldn't help laughing, "But it doesn't look like this from the outside. Your sister has opened the first knitting shop in Beiyu City. The business is very good. Don't let people think we are stingy."

"I was negligent on this point." Bai Zepei nodded and agreed with Bai Ruozhu's statement. He didn't care about his family's business, but he forgot that the Bai family also had a good business on the surface.

Soon it was lunch time, and the family had lunch lively. Bai Ruozhu took Deng Deng back to the house to rest. She couldn't hold Deng Deng yet, so her mother and Guizhi were helping to hold her.

Because her body was recuperating, Bai Ruozhu took a nap for a long time. When she woke up, dinner was already being cooked at home, and Deng Deng was not next to her. She should have been carried to breastfeed by her mother.

She came out of the house and saw the nurse she hired for Dundeng. She was the wife of a handyman in an alley not far away. She had only given birth to the baby for two months, and she had a lot of milk.

Bai Ruozhu went over to say hello and thank her profusely. The nanny was still a little nervous and didn't know where to place her hands and feet. She kept saying, "This is what I should do. It should be done."

After she finished feeding her milk, Lin Ping'er brought her milk-supplementing soup and packed some food for her, asking her to take it back to her husband and older children. The wet nurse was very grateful and left with a lot of gratitude. .

As soon as she left, a carriage came outside the door. Fang Guizhi shouted with sharp eyes, "It must be the eldest brother and sister-in-law who are back!"
