Chapter 118
The next day, early in the morning.

Jing Wu woke up early, today she is going to Yanhe Hall to pay her respects, this is what the Da Furen ordered her to do.

"Girl, you didn't wait for me yesterday." The beauty twisted the handkerchief, handed it to Jing Wu, and complained by the way.

Jing Wu didn't answer, just took the veil and covered his face.The warm veil takes away the fatigue little by little.

She came back with the eldest lady overnight last night. The carriage drove all the way, and when she arrived at Bai's house, it was already midnight.Therefore, she has actually slept for less than two hours.

Tired, but not sleepy...

Because I have something on my mind.

Another half an hour later, Jing Wu arrived at Yanhe Hall. At this time, a strange young lady was sitting outside waiting, and there was no one else.

So Jingwu brushed his hands and saluted, but the young lady didn't make any response. Jingwu felt that he was probably being treated as a maid.Although she had some guesses about the identity of the young lady, she did not dare to guess it rashly.

At this moment, Zitan took a few steps forward, "Miss Jing, this is the Fourth Madam."

Jing Wu thought in his heart, sure enough!Today I will come to say hello, and the complete stranger is still at this age, and only the fourth lady is there.

At the same time, the sound of "Miss Jing" also made the fourth lady turn her head. She looked at Jing Wu directly, obviously realizing who this "Miss Jing" was referring to.

His eyes are like torches...

Jing Wu could only salute the Fourth Madam again and again, and praised, "Jing Wu pays respects to the Fourth Madam."

The fourth lady continued to look at her indifferently, and it should even be said to be probing.

After a long while, she pursed her lips, and then commented, "You haven't learned the rules well, you can't compare to your mother."

Then he let out a cold "hum", turned his eyes away, and stopped looking at Jing Wu.

Jing Wu silently slandered "yin and yang strangeness", and didn't bother to talk to the fourth lady anymore, so he just found an inconspicuous corner that was easy to observe and stood still, and began to wait.

...

"Hey, second sister-in-law, I vaguely remember that the elder sister-in-law should greet you in a timely manner. It's already at this point, why haven't you seen anyone yet?" The second lady spoke.

Logically speaking, today is Sifang's first greeting after returning to the capital. It's unreasonable that the eldest lady would take Joe like this and deliberately embarrass them?
Could it be that he really offended the eldest lady yesterday?The fourth lady was thinking so secretly, and gradually became a little flustered.

The second lady put down the teacup in her hand, and glanced at the fourth lady with an inexplicable expression.

"Four brothers and sisters, people who eat five grains will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable, and my father and mother have never asked us to say good morning. Even if my sister-in-law is delayed because of something today, I don't care about it, and It’s not yet Chen’s hour, we’re the ones who arrived early.”

"Oh... oh..., is that right, I think my sister-in-law looked pretty good yesterday."

The fourth lady smugly concealed her panic and embarrassment at the moment, not at all the arrogance she had when embarrassing Jing Wu.

The rules of the Bai family's greetings start at Chenshi, if there is no major event before Chenshi, don't disturb the rest of the old man and the old lady, and have breakfast.

It is impossible for the old man and the old lady to wait for someone to come to pay their respects sooner or later.

So generally, when people come to pay their respects, they will arrive around Chenshi, and if they come early, they will wait a little longer. On the contrary, taking advantage of this time, the wives and little sisters of each room can still talk and communicate with each other.

"It's the fourth brother and sister. Why didn't the fourth brother come with you? Weren't you together yesterday?"

The second lady suddenly asked backwards, making the fourth lady hoarse.

She smiled embarrassingly, but for a moment, she didn't know how to make a sound.

Just at this time, Chen Shi finally arrived.

From the curtain door connecting the inner and outer rooms, the sound of small footsteps began to be heard.

Zitan stepped forward to close the curtain, and everyone stood up one after another.

But unexpectedly, it was neither the old man nor the old lady who came out first, but it was the fourth master of the Bai family who was asked by the second lady just now.

Not counting the vague memories of childhood, this is the first time Jing Wu saw the fourth master of the Bai family.

Jing Wu felt suffocated, this is simply the adult version of Bai Jidi, and the father and son look too much alike.I don't know if it's because of Bai Jidi's relationship, but she subconsciously resists Fourth Master Bai.

Fourth Master Bai was not in a hurry to greet everyone, but after standing still, he took over the work from Zitan's hands, leaned forward, and opened the curtain.

Afterwards, the old man and the old lady came out hand in hand.

"Father, mother..."

"Grandfather grandmother……"

Amidst the shouts of the crowd, the second elder took the main seat.

Afterwards, everyone saluted and said hello in order according to their seniority and age.

The old lady swept the crowd listlessly.

"I'm getting old and my energy is low. My old lady is going to sleep in the cage. If you have nothing to do, you can go away."

As soon as the old lady opened her mouth, everyone in front of her was about to disperse.

The old man looked at his old wife helplessly, but he didn't say anything to refute.

On the contrary, the four-bedroom couple suddenly turned extremely ugly, one was angry and the other was anxious.

"Plop", the fourth lady quickly bowed her head and knelt down.

When I looked up again, there were tears streaming down my face.

"Father, mother, and daughter-in-law have been working hard since they married into the Bai family. There is nothing wrong with taking care of their husbands and raising their children. However, the matter between the fourth master and the Mei family really hurts the daughter-in-law. Please father and mother Make the decision for your daughter-in-law."

She came to Yanhe Hall early, originally thinking that before asking for peace, it would be best to have a breath with the old man and the old lady, at least cry.

But Zitan kept blocking her, not allowing her to enter the inner room.

Seeing that her husband came first, and her mother-in-law gave way so lightly!When she was in the Yanguan, she had nowhere to rely on, and now she has returned to the Bai family. If she backed down like this today, wouldn't that mean that she acquiesced to the Mei family in front of the Bai family?

No, absolutely not!
The fourth lady took a few steps on her knees and knelt all the way to the front.

"Father, mother, the atmosphere in the south is such that the daughter-in-law has nothing to say, but now that she has returned to the capital, it is time to set things right!"

The old lady crossed her legs in annoyance, keeping a distance from the fourth lady.

"What Mei's, what a mess, set things right, and where did you learn to behave, stay away from me!"

The old lady's action and reprimand made the fourth lady forget that she was going to cry for a while.

She is so miserable?How could this old woman be so contemptuous of her? ! !
The fourth lady opened her mouth, wanting to explain a few words.

But only the voice of the eldest lady came from outside.

"Fourth brother and sister, put away your tears, we will talk about your matter later..."

The fourth lady turned her head in a daze, and the eldest lady had already walked in front of her.

In her ears, she heard the eldest lady's greetings, "Daughter-in-law, greetings to father, greetings to mother..."

But in her heart, what she thought was.

It's annoying, is it inherited from mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?
