Chapter 1313: 178, Solve_3
"This, she probably didn’t do it on purpose, right?"
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, "Oh, it turns out that the life of your estate’s legitimate daughter is so cheap that even an Old Sister is valued more. No, I think it’s better to go find Lord Han to discuss this matter."
"Don’t! Don’t look for the Lord!" As soon as she heard that they were going to find Han Taining, Lady Bai immediately compromised. She had her own concerns, after all. Lin Yuan was pretty and young and adorable, much more charming than her, who was over the hill. She had already been somewhat uneasy when she heard that it was Han Taining who had brought Lin Yuan in, and now she dared not let Han Taining see this little seductress again.
"Administer fifty heavy paddlings, and after that, kick her out of the estate!"
Fifty heavy paddlings, even if it didn’t kill the old pious woman, she would nearly be half-dead.
Seeing that Lin Yuan was silent, Lady Bai knew that she was satisfied.
However, Sister Rong could not take it and was begging for mercy and howling. Lady Bai was afraid that she would say something she shouldn’t, so she quickly had the maids gag her.
Sister Rong and Ying Ge had been dealt with; now only Lady Bai, their mistress, was left. Lin Yuan glanced sideways, scrutinizing Lady Bai carefully. After what had just happened, she concluded that Lady Bai was somewhat clever, at best.
She and Xiao Linshuang had been in the door for so long, and yet she still hadn’t figured out their identities! Not only that but simply because Lin Yuan had mentioned Han Taining, Lady Bai believed it true and didn’t dare lay a hand on her—an absolute fool.
What was even more laughable to her was that Lady Bai cared deeply about her reputation. Perhaps it was because her background was so humble that she cared so much about how the ladies of the Capital city saw her, otherwise, she and Xiao Linshuang wouldn’t have been able to exploit an opportunity today.
While they were dealing with Sister Rong, Xiao Linshuang had also identified the poison hidden in the Condensation Dew and even prepared the antidote recipe, all in less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Taking the recipe, Lin Yuan looked at Xiao Linshuang approvingly. It seemed that the young girl really hadn’t been wasting her time learning these days.
"Madam, please find a reliable person to take care of preparing and cooking the medicine. I am still waiting to invite Miss Han to gather at the estate!"
Pushing the recipe in front of Lady Bai, Lin Yuan smiled innocently, but her words carried a hint of threat. Waiting to gather—was that to say, they intended to meet every few days?
Lady Bai frowned in disgust, smiling as she took the recipe while inwardly cursing bitterly, wondering where this unexpected Cheng Yaojin had come from that was so irksome to look at!
Indeed, where had this Cheng Yaojin come from?
Lady Bai’s eyes shifted, and she said with a smile, "Miss, rest assured, I will of course have someone properly look after Juanjuan. Oh, right, Juanjuan has not yet awoken. When she does, I will send someone to notify you. But I’m not sure where to go—where do you stay?"
Lin Yuan smiled amusedly, curling her lips—the fool finally remembered to ask her name.
"I will have to trouble you then, Madam. My name is Lin Yuan, and I live opposite Miss Yao."
"Miss Yao?" Lady Bai’s heart skipped a beat and a name popped into her head, but still unsure, she asked.
Lin Yuan smiled, "Yao Hanai, the eldest Miss Yao."
Having said this, she didn’t wait for Lady Bai to speak again, and prepared to take her leave with Xiao Linshuang. As they walked out of the room, whether intentionally or inadvertently, Xiao Linshuang muttered, "Clearly poisoned, yet they claimed it was the common cold, moving us to such a shabby courtyard, tsk tsk, Big Sister, we better not associate with this Miss Han in the future, she’s too shabby."
Lin Yuan laughed softly, despite Xiao Linshuang’s words being a deliberate act to jab at Lady Bai, she still felt that the young girl’s words were quite harsh.
Indeed, the already alert Lady Bai quickly caught up, grinning and assuring, "Not at all! Since Juanjuan is not suffering from the common cold, there’s no need for her to recuperate in isolation. Tomorrow, no, in a moment, immediately, I will have her moved back to her own courtyard and assign some clever maids to serve her, to ensure that Juanjuan recovers sooner."
Lin Yuan’s lips curled, "Madam Han truly has a mother’s heart. Even though Miss Han’s birth mother is gone, with Madam protecting her, she is sure to live well in the future."
With the high hat put on her, Lady Bai’s face suddenly blossomed, nodding continuously and promising that she would definitely treat Han Huijuan well.
