In the evening, Bai Lishi sat at the table blankly with a letter she had read in her hand, her eyes unfocused. The room was so quiet that it was as if they could hear each other's breathing the next moment.

"Miss? What's wrong with you?" Xiao Tao looked at Bai Lishi who was obviously abnormal with some worry.

Ever since the two of them came to Jing'an Temple, the young lady seemed to have changed. She took matters into her own hands and became taciturn.

But now he is more sincere towards Xiao Tao than before. He no longer beats and scolds her endlessly, and the two of them spent a rare and peaceful time together.

It can be considered a friend in need is a friend indeed.

Bai Lishi squeezed the letter in her hand tightly, her whole body couldn't stop trembling, and the tears in her eyes could no longer hold back and fell down her cheeks.

Why?Why does her father still treat her like this now that she is in this state?

She finally got her freedom now, but she didn't expect that the Bai family still refused to let her go.

Could it be that in the eyes of the Bai family, her whole life could only be a bargaining chip that could be exchanged for marriage?

Bai Lishi had no doubt that Bai Zhaoyi would deceive her about this matter. When her father sent someone to invite her back home at noon today, she felt something was wrong.

She has lived in Jing'an Temple for a while. No one from the White House has ever come to see her or send a letter home to care about her. Why did they suddenly want to take her back to the house today?

There must be something weird here.

It's just that she didn't expect it to be like this...

Bai Lishi handed the letter in her hand to Xiaotao. Xiaotao, who used to be the first-class maid next to the second lady, was naturally literate. After quickly reading the content of the letter, she said angrily:

"Miss, how could the master be so shameless to you! You are his biological daughter! Doesn't Madam care about you?"

Mentioning Chen's Bai Lishi made her heartache even more intense. Although she said she didn't care these days, in her heart she still looked forward to her mother coming to see her.

Even a letter would have been nice, but she didn't expect anything.

There is always only one eldest sister in my mother's heart, and she only pays special attention to things about Bai Yanci.

So what do you think you are?Big sister's playmate?Or an irrelevant person?

Bai Lishi's heart was stabbed hard, and recalling what her mother said to her the night before the wedding, her heart hurt even more like a knife.

Bai Lishi picked up the handkerchief and wiped the tears on her face. A hint of sarcasm and determination gradually appeared in her eyes:

"They want to exchange me for money, but I won't let them get what they want. No one can control my life this time."

……

At this time, Bai Shaoyuan in the Bai Mansion was furious in the study. Everything within reach was scattered all over the floor. The guards sent to Jing'an Temple to invite Bai Lishi back to the home shrank and knelt in the corner, not daring to say another word.

Bai Shaoyuan's chest heaved violently, his face was livid, and he roared almost madly:

"This evil girl! The Bai family has raised her with good food and drink for so many years, but now that the Bai family is in trouble, she refuses to lend a hand to help! I have loved her for so many years in vain, and now she is a white-eyed wolf again! "

Bai Shaoyuan paced back and forth in the study angrily, grabbed a tea cup and smashed it to pieces on the ground.

Mrs. Chen outside the door was so frightened that she hurriedly took a few steps back and covered her stomach. Lan Xiang stretched out her hand to support Chen's retreating body and then breathed a sigh of relief.

When Bai Shaoyuan saw Mrs. Chen standing outside the door with a white face and her stomach covered, he couldn't care less about the anger in his heart and said with some reproach:

"Why are you here? Didn't the doctor say that you are weak and need to take a good rest? You are not afraid of falling again if the road is slippery in the snow."

Bai Shaoyuan attaches great importance to the child in Chen's belly. Since Bai Yitian died, Bai Shaoyuan has pinned all his hopes on Chen's child.

The doctor said that this baby is likely to be a boy.

Bai Shaoyuan calmed down the anger in his heart and reached out to touch Chen's belly, which was already pregnant. His expression was rare and a little more peaceful and loving.

Because of this child, Mrs. Chen also received unprecedented treatment in the mansion. Her husband was considerate and caring, and the old lady was kind and cheerful. These were all because of her pregnancy.

If she hadn't made such a choice that night, maybe she wouldn't have what she has today.

Chen's eyes flashed, then she held Bai Shaoyuan's arm and smiled softly: "Why is the master so angry? Can you tell me about it?"

Chen didn't know Bai Shaoyuan's plan, so he was helped into the messy study room and sat on a soft cushion.

Bai Shaoyuan heard Chen ask him why, but he couldn't help complaining that Chen had not disciplined his children well over the years.

The eldest daughter did such a scandal, and the second daughter was disobedient. There was simply no one who did not make him feel comfortable!

But now he couldn't get angry at Mrs. Chen, for fear that it would affect her pregnancy, so Bai Shaoyuan could only hold back his anger and distort the facts:

"She's not that good daughter of yours. I kindly sent someone to Jing'an Temple to take her back to my home, but she refused at all. Could it be that the daughter who got married was just thrown away? She will no longer be a member of my Bai family from now on." ?”

Bai Shaoyuan did not mention at all that he wanted to send Bai Lishi to other people's houses in exchange for money.

Mrs. Chen looked a little more uncomfortable when she heard that it was related to her little daughter. When she thought that her little daughter's current fate of practicing cultivation with her hair was inseparable from the choice she had made, Mrs. Chen felt a little bit in her heart. Not comfortable.

Her original intention at the beginning was to let Shi'er accept Ci'er's marriage and marry into the third prince's house. The third prince's favorite at that time was Shi'er, after all.

Who would have thought... It didn't take long for the third prince to have so many scandals happen one after another, and in the end he was demoted to a commoner.

Mrs. Chen didn't know that the third prince had been killed by Bai Yanci herself. She thought that Ci'er would have found a place with beautiful scenery to live peacefully.

It was she who owed Shi'er.

The more this happened, the more she dared not see Bai Lishi again, for fear of seeing her like now.

It seemed that as long as she didn't see her little daughter, she would feel less guilty.

Mrs. Chen squeezed the handkerchief tightly, took a deep breath, and said with a stiff smile:

"Maybe Shi'er is having a bad temper, it would be better if the master coaxes her more. Shi'er is your daughter and mine. No matter which day she comes, she will be the daughter of the Bai family. There is no such thing as the water thrown out by a married daughter." . Master, it’s better not to get angry with her."

Mrs. Chen reached out to pick up a cup of hot tea that the waiter had just brought in and took a sip. The sourness in her heart was barely suppressed.
