Chapter 294 - 292: Ruthless_1
When Bai Qingyan returned to Qinghui Courtyard to change clothes and went back to the courtyard of the Fifth Madam, Mrs. Qi had already been moved out of the delivery room.
Nanny Jiang had also seen the child and took a carriage to report back to the Eldest Princess at the Imperial Family Qing Temple.
At this time, the Fifth Madam was leaning against the head of the bed, sipping lactation soup in small sips.
Mrs. Liu glanced at the sleeping child, stepped on the redwood footstool, sat down by the bed, and looked at the lactation soup in Mrs. Qi’s hand. "Are you really planning to feed the child yourself?"
Although she had just given birth, Mrs. Qi’s condition was still good. She looked at the little daughter sleeping next to her with a loving gaze.
This was a blessing from heaven. Although her husband and two sons were gone, heaven had given her a lovely daughter back.
"Yes! I will only have this one child in my lifetime. I want to do it all myself." Mrs. Qi’s eyes turned red, she lowered her eyes, took a few sips of the almost tasteless soup, and slightly frowned, enduring the discomfort and drinking a few more sips.
Hearing from the outside maid that the Eldest Young Lady, Second Lady, Fourth Lady, Fifth Lady, and Sixth Lady had all come, Mrs. Qi handed the soup bowl to Nanny Zhai and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.
Bai Qingyan bowed, sat by the bed, glanced at the eighth sister sleeping peacefully by the fifth aunt’s side, smiled, and had Chun Tao place the solid gold lock inlaid with gemstones she had given near the baby. Lovingly, she whispered, "Xiao Ba... I am your eldest sister. Thank you for safely arriving at the Bai family."
Bai Jinxiu also smiled and presented her gift, standing by the bed and seriously looking at Xiao Ba. "Xiao Ba is truly beautiful!"
