Second marriage to the regent

Su Junxi watched Jun'er become closer to her day by day, and Bai Shi had worked hard.

She took the pastries, ate some, and then said, "Your mother is back too. Go and see her."

When Jun'er heard that Su Junxi had allowed him to see Mrs. Bai, he quickly bowed and said, "Jun'er will leave first. Mother has something to call her."

"Miss, Jun'er is becoming more and more sensible, so you'd better be careful." Yingshi was afraid that Jun'er was so clever and sensible now just for Su Junxi to see.

"Yingshi, take out the medicine Mr. Shen sent last time." Su Junxi ordered.

Yingshi turned around, rummaged in the cabinet, and handed it to Su Junxi.

She made these herbs into pills and stored them for later use.

"Miss, the Marquis ordered someone to prepare meals for you, and they have been delivered." Yan'er came in from outside the house, feeling blessed.

Su Junxi nodded in agreement, and the maids left after placing the meals on the table.

When Yingshi saw Tang Zhili's sudden change of temper, she asked in confusion: "Did the Marquis take the wrong medicine? Why is he suddenly so interested in the young lady?"

After Yan'er heard about it, she told Su Junxi about the rumors in the house: "Miss, I heard that Duke Anguo's house hired an imperial doctor for the Marquis. I guess that the Marquis did this because he didn't want to owe this favor."

After hearing this, Su Junxi also felt that this was the reason and nodded.

But since they were all delivered, it would be a waste not to eat them. It happened that Jun'er also came back, so he said, "Go and call Bai and Jun'er to have a meal together."

The two maids looked at each other, and Yingshi responded: "Yes, I will go right now."

On the bench in the corridor of the courtyard, Mrs. Bai was holding Jun'er in her arms, unwilling to let go.

"My dear son, you have lost a lot of weight recently. Have you been wronged by Mr. Lu?"

She felt heartbroken as she looked at Jun'er who was getting thinner day by day, but for the sake of his future, she had to endure the pain.

Jun'er shook his head and said with a smile: "No! I am very happy at the school, and the food is good! The teachers and senior brothers take good care of me!"

Seeing Jun'er's cute smile, Bai Shi felt a little better.

The warm scene between mother and son was broken by Yingshi.

"Aunt Bai, brother Jun'er, madam invites you two to come over and have dinner together."

Jun'er quickly stood up and said, "Mom has called us. Let's go, Aunt Bai."

Just now, she had a mother-in-law, and now she is called Aunt Bai. This sensible thing makes Ms. Bai feel even more distressed, but she also knows that Jun'er has really learned something useful in the Lu family.

Mother and son saw Su Junxi sitting at the dining table from a distance, waiting for them.

Mrs. Bai then urged: "Don't keep Madam waiting in a hurry."

Although the voice was very low, Jun'er heard it clearly and quickened his pace.

"Mother." Jun'er called softly.

"Yes." Su Junxi responded: "Sit down, the food will be cold later."

Bai and Jun'er then sat down, but they didn't dare to move their chopsticks, so Su Junxi had to move her chopsticks first.

The atmosphere was pretty good, at least I didn't feel awkward.

Ms. Bai was holding back the question and did not dare to ask it, because Mr. Ye had warned her to abide by the rules in the Marquis Mansion, especially not to be disrespectful to Su Junxi.

Su Junxi saw her subtle expression and knew what she was thinking, but due to Jun'er's presence, she didn't say anything.

Jun'er suddenly came back and he didn't know how long he could stay, so Bai asked him: "Jun'er, you came back suddenly. Did Mr. Lu tell you when he wanted you to go back?"

After hearing this, Jun'er put down his chopsticks and looked at Bai: "Aunt Bai, don't talk when you eat or sleep. Remember."

This was Jun'er's first lesson from Mr. Lu.A look of embarrassment appeared on Bai's face and she quickly shut up.

After finishing the meal, Jun'er said goodbye in a hurry.

"My son came back to visit his mother when he was out shopping. Now that my senior brother has bought everything, it's time for my son to go back. I will write to my mother if I have anything to do. I hope my mother will take care of herself at home."

Although it was Su Junxi who said it, Su Junxi noticed that his peripheral vision was always on Bai. It was true that mother and son were connected, and it was Bai who was worried.

"Go." Su Junxi waved her hand.

Seeing that her son was gone, Ms. Bai felt unhappy. She held the handkerchief tightly with both hands and stared at Jun'er's leaving figure. She didn't look back until the carriage disappeared from sight.

When she looked back, she saw Su Junxi looking at her.

She wondered: "Madam, what's wrong?"

"Pack your things and head to the western suburbs tonight. From now on, you can study with Jun'er!" Su Junxi said.

Bai was surprised and happy when she heard the news. She didn't expect that Su Junxi would ask her to stay with Jun'er. She was so happy that she said incoherently: "Thank you... Madam."

After saying that, she cried with joy and turned back to her room to start tidying up.

Yan'er was puzzled: "Miss, why is this?"

Yan'er felt that Su Junxi's decision only fulfilled Bai's idea of ​​missing her son and wanting to be by his side.

Su Junxi looked at Bai who was busy cleaning up in the room, and smiled slightly: "Bai is so reluctant to leave Jun'er, so let her take a good look at whether her son misses each other as much as she does."

As soon as Su Junxi returned to the house, she saw a familiar figure behind the willow tree outside the house, so she dismissed the two maids.

"You two, please step aside. I'm tired. Let's sleep for a while." Su Junxi sat on the bed, pretending to sleep.

The two of them didn't dare to disturb, so they all retreated.

As soon as they walked away, the figure gradually approached until it appeared in front of Su Junxi.

"It's you." Su Junxi saw clearly who was coming.

Although I don't know her name, the thing she gave me was something special.

The woman suddenly asked Su Junxi about Li Wanwan: "How is your relationship with that concubine?"

"Bai's family?" Su Junxi came because this woman came for Bai's family.

The woman shook her head.

Su Junxi understood and told the truth: "She and I haven't even exchanged a few words, so how can we have such a good relationship?"

"This person is the person who assassinated you in the dense forest that day. It is very dangerous for her to stay with you. You should be more careful." The woman told Su Junxi that Li Wanwan was the person who assassinated her.

Su Junxi was not surprised because she had long been suspicious of Li Wanwan.

"You and I have never met, why are you telling me this?" Su Junxi didn't understand. She couldn't tell herself this just because she had a bad relationship with Li Wanwan, right?
"She and I came from the same school, but we had different ambitions, so we broke up and had no contact with each other for a long time. But I recently discovered that she handed over the master's beast-control skills to a man."

The woman got a little emotional when she said this: "This secret book is meant to be passed down from female to male, so it's okay for her to violate the rules of the sect, and to help others do evil. It's really hopeless."

"So the purpose of your visit is to let me help you get rid of Li Wanwan?" Su Junxi roughly guessed this reason.

Sure enough, the woman nodded: "Yes, I will help you secretly."

She didn't give Su Junxi the slightest chance to refuse, because Su Junxi had already accepted the gift before.

And that gift, she guessed, was the secret book of the master's sect that the woman said. (End of chapter)
