Chapter 175 You Help Me, I Will Help You
Coming out from his grandfather's place, Ah Fu came forward to greet him.
"Second Young Master, are we going to Jingyuan?"
Bai Xun paused.
"Second Young Master." Han Bailing walked over holding a lantern.
Seeing this, Ah Fu took a few steps back.
"I know you don't want to see me, but there are some things I still need to tell you."
The cold wind blew, and Han Bailing raised her hand to tighten the scarf around her neck.
"You didn't have dinner at the old house today, and the old lady was very angry. She came to Jingyuan and talked to me for a long time. The old lady meant... that I should follow you everywhere from now on."
Bai Xun was not surprised at all. This was indeed an idea that his grandmother could come up with.
Seeing that Bai Xun remained calm, Han Bailing smiled bitterly and said, "I know you have many ways to get rid of me, but you can't get rid of the head of the family and the old lady. The old lady said that if you go to Yangcheng without taking me, the head of the family will personally send me to Baiyuan."
"So what?" Bai Xun asked.
"I can stay in the old house to solve your worries, help you find out the secret of the head of the family's surveillance of Nanchun A Niang, and ensure Nanchun A Niang's safety. I know you can send your men to do these things, but they are servants of the Bai family after all, and they dare not easily disobey the head of the family and the old lady.
The Patriarch and the Old Lady are quite satisfied with me now, and they have no defenses against me. And knowing that you don't like me, they wouldn't suspect you even if I accidentally exposed myself. Second Young Master, you can't care about so many things outside. It's perfect for me to help you take care of the trivial matters of the old house and deal with the Patriarch and the Old Lady. "Han Bailing said earnestly.
To be honest, Bai Xun was indeed a little hesitant.
He originally planned to use cooperation with the Fourth Master in exchange for sending Han Bailing away.
But his grandfather still had doubts about Nanchun and had even taken Nanchun's mother hostage, which made him dare not act rashly.
Seeing Bai Xun's hesitation, Han Bailing hurriedly said, "I won't stay here forever. For now, let me hide for a while. After that, I will make my own plans and leave here at the right time. Also, I will write a letter to Nanchun to explain the reason to him to avoid any misunderstanding between him and you because of me."
Bai Xun was silent.
In fact, it was only a short time, but Han Bailing felt like a very long time had passed.
"You can't tell anyone about your grandfather sending people to monitor his mother, especially Nanchun."
This was agreed, and Han Bailing breathed a sigh of relief.
"I know."
"Since you help me, I will also help you. When the dust settles, I will help you arrange your departure from here." Bai Xun said.
Han Bailing's eyes were red, and she choked up and said, "Thank you, Second Young Master."
I thought no one in this world could save her.
Death is the simplest thing.
But she was unwilling to give up, as she had not yet been to the beautiful hometown that her mother often told her about.
Her last wish was to visit her hometown.
She wanted to go and check on her mother.
So, she cannot die, she must live well.
The news that the second young master had returned to Jingyuan with Aunt Han was immediately spread to the main courtyard and the old lady's courtyard.
"Old lady, you can finally sleep peacefully. It's so late, and you are still thinking about the second young master. Now you can rest assured." The maid Xinghua hurriedly helped her to rest.
"Alas, I just hope they can really live in harmony." Old Madam Bai was worried.
"Of course she can. Aunt Han is beautiful, kind-hearted, and good at both housework and housework. The Second Young Master has never gotten along with her, so it's inevitable that they will feel a little unfamiliar with each other. It will be fine after they get along for a while." Xinghua comforted.
"I hope so!" sighed Mrs. Bai.
Main courtyard.
"Is it really like that?" Bai Yishui was a little surprised.
"Yes, it is said that Aunt Han and the second young master talked for a long time in the yard, and then returned to Jingyuan together. Now you can rest assured, head of the family." said the butler.
"I thought Xun'er wouldn't accept it... You know his temper."
Bai Yishui always felt that something was wrong. Given Bai Xun's temper, it was impossible for him to accept it so easily.
"The Second Young Master is tough on the outside but soft on the inside. He probably doesn't want to make things difficult for Aunt Han. But no matter what, this is a good start. At least he is willing to accept Aunt Han instead of turning a cold face and driving her out. There is a long way to go, and sincerity can move mountains and open up new paths. Even a frozen heart will be melted over time." The butler said with a smile.
"That's true." Bai Yishui murmured.
Bai Xun settled down in the study. He had originally wanted to move to the guest room in the front yard. But if he stayed in the guest room, his grandmother would definitely come to talk to him tomorrow. If he angered her, he would have trouble getting back to Yangcheng in the next couple of days.
Ah Fu brought hot tea with a long face.
"Who are you angry with?" Bai Xun asked.
Ah Fu curled his lips and said, "Now Jingyuan no longer recognizes the Second Young Madam, but only Aunt Han. Pah, a bunch of fence-sitters! They are blind. The Second Young Madam is the legitimate wife of the Second Young Master!"
"Calm down, why are you still so impatient?" Bai Xun said after taking a sip of tea.
"I feel sorry for the Second Young Madam! How could this be... The legal wife was driven away to live in the other courtyard, while the concubine is in charge in the old house." Ah Fu complained.
Yeah, I've definitely never seen anything like this.
Therefore, I must have power in my hands. Only in this way can I protect Nanchun and make things go according to my own ideas.
In the past, I didn’t care and didn’t want to pay attention to it. I felt that it didn’t matter what happened.
But now it’s different, he has to make plans for Nanchun.
The next morning, people from Jingyuan came to report.
"Master, the Second Young Master stayed in Jingyuan yesterday, but..."
Seeing him hesitating, Bai Yishui said, "Just say it."
"He just stayed in the study. The Second Young Master and Aunt Han seemed a little unfamiliar with each other. They ate separately in the morning." The visitor reported truthfully.
Although it was not good news, the slight sense of disharmony in Bai Yishui's heart disappeared.
This is... more like Bai Xun.
It would be unlike him to accept it without hesitation.
"Oh, what should we do? He married a concubine, but he won't even enter the door. Wouldn't people laugh at him if this gets out?" Old Madam Bai said worriedly.
Bai Yishui sighed: "Xun'er told me last night that he would be going to Yangcheng in the next two days?"
"Ah? So soon? Then let Bailing go with him. Then you let Song'er send Nanchun back." said Mrs. Bai.
Bai Yishui frowned slightly and said impatiently, "Nonsense! These two brothers have nothing to do all day long, just running back and forth to pick people up!"
Bai Xun’s meaning was very clear yesterday.
If he was asked to take Bailing to Yangcheng, he would definitely refuse.
If he was forced to take them along, he would definitely ask to bring Nanchun's mother along as well.
Song Amei can't leave here.
With her around, even if Nan Chenglin and Nan Chun had ulterior motives, they would not dare to act rashly.
