Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 38

Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Grievance_1

Mrs. Dong clutched the handkerchief in her hand, already deeply moved, wishing she could agree immediately.

Madam Dong sighed and looked at the Eldest Princess: “After all, they are my grandson and granddaughter. What’s there to be ashamed of? But if Kid doesn’t nod to this marriage, we can’t force him. Thinking about Kid’s lifelong matter, it really makes my heart ache!”

“Mother!” Mrs. Dong looked urgently at Madam Dong. “But…”

“Eldest daughter-in-law, don’t you know your own daughter’s temperament? If you force her to marry, would she be happy inside?” The Eldest Princess interrupted Mrs. Dong.

The Eldest Princess was Bai Qingyan’s grandmother. Naturally, like Madam Dong, she worried about Bai Qingyan. But Bai Qingyan would rather break than bend and would never compromise against her will.

Mrs. Dong dabbed her tears with a handkerchief. “Forget it! If Kid never marries in her lifetime, as long as she is happy.”

Later, Dong Changyuan and Bai Qingyan entered the room, Dong Changyuan standing like a statue beside Madam Dong, not uttering a word.

Madam Dong sat briefly and then took Dong Changyuan back to the mansion.

Mrs. Dong and Bai Qingyan personally escorted Madam Dong to the door. After some reluctance, Mrs. Dong sent Madam Dong onto the carriage.

After watching Madam Dong’s carriage depart, Bai Qingyan was summoned back to Changshou Courtyard by Nanny Jiang.

The Eldest Princess spoke to her about the son of her second uncle who was to be brought back to the mansion.

“Go ahead and test the character of those two people. If the boy’s birth mother is honest and forthright, bring them both back. If she’s ambitious, send her back immediately!”

“Grandmother, don’t worry. I understand!” Bai Qingyan nodded.

Nanny Jiang entered, holding a tray of eight-treasure tea, smiling as she said: “The little maid named Chun Yan in the eldest sister’s courtyard, she’s been anxiously peeking around outside Changshou Courtyard for some time now, her face red with worry. Cui’er went out but couldn’t find out anything. Does the eldest sister want to call her in and ask?”

Bai Qingyan’s heart sneered. What could make Chun Yan so anxious but unable to tell others? Aside from that exalted King Liang!

Bai Qingyan changed the subject. “I just heard mother say, Qin Lang came to talk to the second sister this morning. Today is the day he moves out of the Marquis Mansion. He will wait quietly in the mansion for the second sister to return.”

The Eldest Princess nodded. “Qin Lang is decisive. It’s not in vain that you paved the way for him…”

Bai Qingyan served the Eldest Princess Buddha in Changshou Courtyard and only came out after having lunch.

Chun Yan, who had been nestled in the snow all morning, hurriedly greeted her, her face red from the cold. “Miss Bai…”

Her cold eyes glanced at Chun Yan. “We’ll talk back inside.”

A rush of blood went to her head. Bai Qingyan’s cold and fierce eyes stared at Chun Yan. She had never expected Chun Yan, this treacherous servant, to be so bold as to accept King Liang’s personal jade pendant! _{freёwebnovel.com}
