Hearing Su Chenyu's words, Yao was confused and uncertain. She glanced at Bai Qiqi. Did this girl do something wrong?
Bai Qi turned his face away to avoid Yao's sight.
Bai Yanqing looked at the old lady who was still sitting on the chair, walked behind her, and leaned her shoulders against the back of the chair. The old lady realized that her waist was not as straight as it was at the beginning, and she had lost a lot of momentum.
"Madam, I will forgive Song Qingxuan's behavior this time, but if there is a next time, I will carefully select an old man for you so that you can live out your life in peace."
The old lady's heart skipped a beat. She wanted to look back at Bai Li Yanqing, but Bai Li Yanqing's hands were so strong that she couldn't move at all.
Afterwards, Bai Yanqing let go of her hand and patted the unnecessary dust on the old lady's shoulder: "Old lady, you have been sitting outside for too long. Your clothes are covered with dust. Be careful."
The old lady's hand on the armrest slightly retracted, and she turned around and looked at Yao: "Second Madam, since you are so worried about Bai Qi's marriage, it is better not to be distracted. The medicine shop outside the suburbs of Beijing is my father's property, so you don't need to worry about it. I will send someone to take over the shop soon."
Yao stammered, "Yanqing, didn't I tell you before that the manor loses money every year and is not easy to run."
"In that case, we cannot let you, the Second Madam, use the Second House's money to make up for the losses of the First House." Bai Yanqing glanced at Yao, and at that moment, Yao felt a chill from the top of her head to the soles of her feet.
Watching Bai Li Yanqing walk into the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Yao felt as if she had lost both her wife and her army.
For the play that day, the old lady had set up the stage, but Su Chenyu and Bai Yanqing did not respond to her at all. It was as if the play had already ended, making her look like a clown.
Unable to bear the gazes of the people around her, the old lady glared at Yao and said, "Why don't you help me get up and go in?"
Bai Qiqi subconsciously reached out to support the old lady, but the old lady pushed her hand away and put her hand on Yao's arm.
Bai Qiqi knew that the old lady was blaming her, but what could she do?
She had worked so hard to get this marriage, and she wanted to keep it even if the old lady would lose face one day.
Yao helped the old lady into the gate. She hesitated for a long time and uttered two words: "Pharmacy..."
The meaning was very obvious, which was to ask the old lady what to do about the situation of the medicine store, but he was afraid of triggering the old lady's anger, so he only dared to mention these two words.
The old lady glanced at her out of the corner of her eye and said, "What's so scary? Who do you think is better at managing the business, the princess or Yan Qing? I'm just trying to scare you. You can just pretend. In the end, the medicine shop will still be in your hands."
Hearing the old lady say this, Yao felt a little relieved.
This medicine shop has a good terrain and fertile soil. The medicinal herbs grown every year are of the best quality and the income is considerable.
Although the title deed of this medicine shop is still in Bai Yuyanqing's hands, she has been managing it for so many years and has long regarded it as her own thing. Of course, she is reluctant to throw away such a treasure trove!
