Chapter 209 The Courtyard is on Fire



Should we let Dr. Sun go with her?

What kind of talk is this? Let's not even talk about the fact that Grandma is undergoing treatment and Dr. Sun can't get away. Besides, Madam Zheng and Huang Haichuan are husband and wife. Although she has heard about their discord over the years, they are still husband and wife. No matter how much they fight behind closed doors, they will still stand together against outsiders when the door is open.

Hu Mingmei's life is still being held on by Doctor Sun, so how could Bai Nuo possibly let Doctor Sun go with Madam Zheng? Who knows what Madam Zheng might do to Doctor Sun?

"What's wrong?" Bai Nuo asked, thinking that she couldn't let Madam Zheng take Doctor Sun away no matter what. "Is Second Aunt not feeling well? The doctor who treated my husband the other day was just an ordinary doctor, someone who was hired from outside. If Second Aunt needs one, I'll have someone go and get one for you right away."

Anyway, Madam Zheng didn't see Doctor Sun's face that day, she only saw his back.

"Bai Nuo!" Madam Zheng said coldly, "Don't think I don't know you're lying. I clearly saw it that day. Go ahead and invite him!" Madam Zheng looked at Bai Nuo with a sneer. She had already seen the doctor's appearance that day. Although she hadn't seen the doctor at the Hu family's house since, she was certain that the doctor was still in the mansion.

Since he could suppress Hu Mingmei's illness, he could naturally save Kang'er as well. If it weren't for Kang'er, he... he... she wouldn't want to come here.

"What's so difficult about that?" Bai Nuo laughed, seemingly oblivious to Madam Zheng's expression. "It's just a doctor; aren't there doctors everywhere in the capital? Someone, go and fetch a doctor back."

Those who were disobedient in the courtyard had all been taken away by Hu Mingmei, and later some were dealt with by Bai Nuo. Those who remained were all obedient, and now that they heard Bai Nuo speak, they immediately turned around to ask for help.

Seeing that they had really gone, Madam Zheng shouted, "Guards, guard this courtyard gate for me!"

As soon as Madam Zheng finished speaking, more than a dozen middle-aged men suddenly appeared at the door, completely surrounding the entrance to the courtyard.

Seeing that the courtyard gate was surrounded, Bai Nuo looked at the uniformly dressed people at the gate and sneered, "I originally thought that your influence in the manor had been wiped out, but I didn't expect that there are still people willing to listen to you!"

“You’re wrong!” Madam Zheng said proudly. “This is a member of the Zheng family, not those opportunists from the Hu family. If you know what’s good for you, hand over that doctor. If you don’t agree, then I’ll have to go and ask Ming’er for him myself.”

Madam Zheng's words sounded nice, but Bai Nuo understood that if she didn't agree to hand over Doctor Sun, Madam Zheng would take her hostage.

Taking someone hostage in someone else's courtyard—Madam Zheng is indeed bold, or perhaps it was those dozen or so men who gave her the confidence.

"Then go ask him for the person!" Bai Nuo said calmly, not wanting to confront Madam Zheng directly. "However, you'd better have the ability to do so!"

Just as Madam Zheng was about to ask Bai Nuo what he meant, she heard Bai Nuo sneer and say, "Guards!"

Two men appeared behind Bai Nuo, dressed in gray and with identical appearances. As soon as they appeared behind Bai Nuo, they called out in a deep voice, "The eleventh and twelfth guards are here to report. Please give your orders, young mistress."

Bai Nuo turned around, looked at the group of people at the door, and asked calmly, "Can you win?"

Eleven and Twelve raised an eyebrow at the group of people at the door, gave a disdainful sneer, and then answered, "Sure!"

"Go and deal with them. Also, tell the gatekeeper that no one who isn't from the Hu family should be allowed in!" Bai Nuo said calmly. The phrase "don't let them in" was naturally directed at Madam Zheng's Zheng family.

"You!" Madam Zheng choked. Seeing that there were only two people on the other side, while she had more than a dozen, she didn't take Eleven and Twelve seriously. Twelve didn't explain herself when she was slighted. Twelve went straight to the door. When Bai Nuo saw that Twelve had left and Eleven was still standing next to her, she couldn't help but ask, "Why aren't you going?"

Eleven was a man of few words and seemed quite shy. Bai Nuo asked him before he answered, "This subordinate must stay to protect the young mistress."

They knew as soon as Madam Zheng entered that she had hit Granny Wang, but Hu Mingmei had given orders that they should not come out unless someone threatened Bai Nuo's safety or caused trouble for the entire courtyard and the Hu family.

So when Granny Wang was beaten, they didn't do anything. But when they heard Madam Zheng say she was going to take Bai Nuo hostage, they decided to come out. Even if Bai Nuo didn't call for them, they would still come out. As long as Madam Zheng dared to make a move, they would dare to cut off Madam Zheng's hand. What did "second aunt" mean to them? In their eyes, nothing was more important than the safety of the young mistress and the young master.

Seeing that Bai Nuo still had some concerns, Eleven said proactively, "Don't worry, Madam, Twelve can handle it!"

A series of howls and wails erupted at the entrance. As if to prove his brother's words, Twelve quickly defeated the entire group of people, while he himself remained completely unharmed.

After everyone had knelt down, Twelve returned to Bai Nuo's side and said in a deep voice, "Young Madam, I have completed my mission!"

Bai Nuo had just nodded and said "thank you for your hard work" when she heard Madam Zheng shout sternly from the side, "What are you doing? Why aren't you taking these people down right now?"

When Madam Zheng saw Eleven and Twelve, she regretted it. How could she have forgotten that Hu Mingmei was no longer the same as before? But she was too anxious. Kang'er's illness could not be delayed any longer. In her anxiety, she forgot that Hu Mingmei already had a royal guard. Now that she saw him, she remembered, but it was too late. She had no choice but to bite the bullet and go.
