A GIRL AND HER BEST FRIENDS TIME TRAVEL TO ANCIENT TIMES

Chapter 41

The Bai family.

Lady Bai was elegantly drinking tea under the octagonal pavilion in the backyard garden.

Meanwhile, Second Aunt and Bai Yunxin were kneeling in front of her.

"A woman's chastity is so important. How could you have lost your chastity before getting married? This is truly disgraceful to the reputation of the Bai family!"

Bai Yunxin sobbed at this time, "Mother, Wenxuan and I are in love, he will marry me!"

"Don't call me mother! I'm not your mother!" Lady Bai said sharply, slamming her teacup fiercely on the table, splashing tea everywhere.

"Only Han has the right to call me mother!"

"Madam, what do you mean by this? Yunxin is still the Old Master's daughter. How can calling you mother be wrong?" Although Second Aunt was unhappy inside, she didn't dare confront Lady Bai directly.

"Second Aunt, let's talk about it. Wasn't the Old Master's death facilitated by you?" Lady Bai said unhurriedly. "Shouldn't you...go down and accompany your Old Master?"

Second Aunt shuddered in fear upon hearing Lady Bai's words. She felt as if Lady Bai had become a different person after the Old Master was buried. She was strangely frightening.

"Madam...I was tricked by Third Aunt. I didn't know!"

"Second Aunt, if you know what's good for you, take Yunxin with you to Jing'an Temple!"

As soon as Second Aunt heard Lady Bai wanted her to go to Jing'an Temple, she immediately knelt down and grabbed Lady Bai's skirt.

"No, Madam, don't drive me out of the Bai family!"

Second Aunt knew her life would be over if she left the Bai family.

"What do you mean by this?" Bai Yunxin had now stopped crying. She was no longer pitiful but angry. "On what grounds can you banish my mother from the Bai family?!"

"On what grounds?" Lady Bai laughed. "Because I'm now the one in charge of the Bai family! I've tolerated you mother and daughter long enough!"

"You..." Bai Yunxin hadn't expected such blunt words from Lady Bai either.

"Bai Yunxin, you lost your chastity before marriage, disgracing our reputation. I want you and your mother to reflect on your actions at Jing'an Temple. Do you have a problem with that?"

Bai Yunxin stood up. "I won't go to Jing'an Temple! Wenxuan will marry me!"

"Marry you? That playboy Li Wenxuan? And you think he would marry you?" Lady Bai sneered.

"Alright then. Come back in two days. If Li Wenxuan comes personally to propose to you, I'll give you a chance to marry into the Li family. But if not, you and your mother can spend the rest of your lives at Jing'an Temple!"

Bai Yunxin glared fiercely at Lady Bai and pulled Second Aunt up. "Mother, don't kneel to her anymore. Once I marry into the Li family, I will take good care of you!"

The two left the pavilion. The hatred in Lady Bai's eyes still had not faded.

Just then, Wang Fu came into the backyard garden, and happened to run into Second Aunt and Bai Yunxin as they were leaving.

Wang Fu looked at them but did not even greet them as he passed.

"Hmph! Just relying on others' power!" Bai Yunxin muttered.

Wang Fu reached the octagonal pavilion where Lady Bai immediately asked, "Have they left Wenxuan Pavilion?"

"They've left."
