Delicate Beauty Becomes the Beloved of Four Brothers After Her Rebirth!-Chapter 10: Little Yu Is Quite Cute

When she returned to Pear Fragrance Court, the maid Green Pearl had already prepared the bath for her.

Seeing that Bai Xianyu had returned, Green Pearl twisted her handkerchief and said, "Where did Miss go? Old Madam sent someone to look for Miss just now and said that she wanted you to go to Longevity Hall."

General's Manor actually had two rooms.

Bai Xianyu's father, Bai Yuannian, had eliminated dissidents back then and was righteous. From a commoner, he was conferred the title of Kingdom-Stabilizing Great General and was favored by the Emperor. The Old Madam whom Green Pearl mentioned was Bai Yuannian's biological mother.

She also had a son named Bai Yuantai. Although he had persevered in study for years, he was still just a scholar.

After Bai Yuannian passed away, the Kingdom-Stabilizing General's Manor was in chaos. Old Madam Bai was worried that her beloved youngest son would be implicated, so she gave two-thirds of the family's money to Bai Yuantai's family so that they could retire in their hometown in Qingzhou.

A trace of gloominess flashed across Bai Xianyu's eyes. Since ancient times, agriculture had been a priority while business was suppressed, and it was no exception in Great Kui. Merchants were considered to be the lowest profession. Back then, Second Brother had been despised countless times and mocked by many people, saying that he had disgraced his family.

As the second son of the general's family, he did the work of a stall vendor all day long. However, who would have known that when he was young, he had to depend on Old Madam's mood if he wanted to eat pine cakes? She kept a tight rein on the finances of the Manor. When Second Brother was still a child, he had to learn to earn money to supplement the family's expenses.

The Old Madam of Longevity Hall did not care that this was the family business that Bai Yuannian had built. She secretly gave all the fields and shops of the Manor to her youngest son, afraid that he would suffer in Qingzhou.

Bai Xianyu glanced at the pair of bracelets on the table. "Did Grandmother get someone to send these over?"

"Yes, indeed."

"Keep them." Bai Xianyu did not have much feelings for this grandmother. She was more like someone raised by her four brothers. Usually, Old Madam would not go out of Longevity Hall except for family banquets, let alone call someone to go to her courtyard.

What was going on today?

Now that it was late, she did not go to the Longevity Hall. After taking a bath in the bathroom, she lay on the huge bed with flower carvings. The layers of tulle drapes dimmed the candlelight in the room.

She thought for a long time about Xie Xingyun's words today, but she pushed all of this to a truth that she was unwilling to accept.

Xie Xingyun had never been a busybody. His coldness was not only towards her. Even when he became the Regent in his previous life, he still had a face of indifference towards the young Emperor.

However, he saved her when they were strangers. He even specially told her that he was the one who shot the white tiger, and that Lin Xingjian was not her beloved.

She could not think of any reason for him to do so.

It confirmed her previous speculation.

He had also been reborn.

Bai Xianyu turned over and buried herself in the pillow.

He had been reborn, so why did he still come to provoke her?

Didn't he despise her for being noisy? Didn't he despise her for being improper and not looking like a noble lady? Why did he take the initiative to irritate her after being reborn?

Wait a minute. Bai Xianyu suddenly remembered that Old Madam seemed to have given her a bracelet once in her previous life…

…

At the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor.

Xie Xingyun was half-squatting by the pond with a lazy posture. A few fish were touching his fingertips ingratiatingly.

The fish feed was all gone, and the little fish did not swim away.

It was rare for him to smile.

Xiao Zheng, who was behind him, felt that his young master had become a different person.

Why did Young Master smile foolishly from time to time after talking to Fifth Miss Bai?

"Actually, the little fish are quite cute, aren't they?"

The enunciation was too long. Those who did not know better would think that he was calling his lover's name. 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡．𝙘𝙤𝙢

Xiao Zheng had goosebumps all over his body. He said submissively, "The little fish are quite cute."

When the extremely handsome young man heard his words, he frowned for some reason. "As a man, you should speak more masculinely. A fish is a fish. What little fish?"

Xiao Zheng: "…?" Didn't you say that too?
