Chapter 67 Madam and Miss Invite Bai Yaoyao

That’s her eldest cousin, Li Mingyan!

My eldest cousin was dressed in a flowing white robe, looking elegant and refined. He was sitting at the table, half-turning his body, feeding a little girl.

The little girl was wearing a snow-white cloak, and a pair of beautiful butterflies on her head fluttered their wings from time to time as her little head swayed. She held an exquisite hand warmer in her hands and nodded towards the table from time to time, telling Li Mingyan what she wanted to eat. Li Mingyan immediately picked up some food and put it into her mouth.

The little girl ate contentedly, her beautiful eyes and eyebrows slightly narrowed, her thick eyelashes were long and black, and the dimples on her cheeks were faintly visible.

It was none other than Bai Yaoyao!

Li Yaojia was in disbelief. Why was Bai Yaoyao here? And in the front hall?

Before she had time to think about this question, she was carried away from the front hall and thrown out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion!

Li Yaojia, covered in blood, fell heavily to the ground. Xiaoyun hugged her crying, "Miss!"

Li Yaojia's eyes were still fixed on the direction of the front hall of the City Lord's Mansion. She uttered three words with difficulty, "Bai... Yao... Yao..."

******

"A-choo!" Bai Yaoyao suddenly sneezed while covering her nose.

Li Mingyan immediately reached out nervously, touched her forehead, and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Are you cold?"

Bai Yaoyao shook her head. "No, I just felt a little itchy in my nose and wanted to sneeze."

"The banquet will take a while. Yaoyao, are you tired and sleepy? Do you want to take a nap?" Li Mingyan wiped the oil stains from the corners of her mouth and asked in a gentle voice.

"No need, cousin, I'm full. Just sit here and play. Don't worry about me. You're still hungry! And many people are toasting, but you didn't go!" Bai Yaoyao said.

"They are just some unimportant people. It doesn't matter whether you toast them or not." Li Mingyan touched her head and said with a smile.

Not to mention that the person sitting up there is the city lord, even if the emperor himself is here, in Li Mingyan's eyes, he is not as important as a hair on Bai Yaoyao!

Bai Yaoyao rubbed her little head against her cousin's arm, expressing her dependence and joy.

At this moment, a maid suddenly walked in. She walked up to the city lord and saluted respectfully, "Sir."

"Mo Ju, why are you in the front hall instead of helping the lady entertain the guests in the backyard?" Zhu Hongchen put down the wine glass in his hand and asked.

Mo Ju bowed again and said, "In reply to your Excellency, I am here on the orders of Madam and Young Miss."

"Oh? Madam, what do you want me to do?" Zhu Hongchen asked immediately. Everyone around him also quieted down and looked at Nanny Yu.

"It's like this. Madam and Miss heard that the eldest young master of the Li family had brought his cousin to the front hall. They were worried that they wouldn't be able to take good care of her, so they specially sent a servant to take the cousin to the backyard. Madam and Miss had also heard that the cousin of the Li family was well-behaved and lovely, and was the apple of Madam Li's eye. They were very fond of her and wanted to meet her!"

"Cousin of the Li family?" Zhu Hongchen was only concerned with greeting people of noble status and paid no attention to anything else. Naturally, he did not notice Bai Yaoyao who had been following Li Mingyan.

Mo Ju stood up, walked to Li Mingyan, and saluted, "Hello, Young Master Li, Hello, Miss Cousin!"

Li Mingyan's brows darkened. It was already strange that the City Lord's Mansion invited Bai Yaoyao to attend the banquet today, and he had been waiting for the other party to make a move.

"Thank you Madam and Young Miss for your concern," Li Mingyan stood up, bowed, his eyes smiling, and spoke in a clear voice. "Yaoyao is just too young. I was worried that she might offend Madam and Young Miss out of her ignorance, so I kept her by her side and didn't let her go to the backyard. Today is an important day for Young Miss, after all, and the coming-of-age ceremony should be the most important thing. After the coming-of-age ceremony, Mingyan will definitely bring Yaoyao to meet Madam and Young Miss in person!"
