In the end, Bai Ruozhu finally left the Meng Residence. The old lady grumbled for a while and ended up insisting on keeping Yu Hongxiu, which is why Yu Hongxiu looked at Bai Ruozhu with such a pitiful expression when she left.
Bai Ruozhu smirked and whispered, "Sister Hongxiu is still in early pregnancy. It's good for her to sleep separately from Mr. Xie for now."
Yu Hongxiu instantly blushed beet red, glaring at Bai Ruozhu. It was under her resentful gaze and amidst the old lady's hearty laughter that Bai Ruozhu left.
She agreed to stay at the Meng Residence three days later because the doctor sent by the Imperial Court would be arriving in four days, just in time for her to teach her suturing technique there.
Bai Ruozhu declined the Meng Residence's horse carriage ride home and instead headed to the market. She thought she might run into some family members while strolling around.
