BXBX NOVEL Chapter 61 - 61: Agree to Her
“What condition?”
Madam Bai Meng jumped up. She was really surprised that Bai Xianyu agreed so quickly.
“I also hope that Uncle’s family understands that Uncle had already cut ties with our residence when my father died.” Bai Xianyu’s gaze was clear.
In fact, the Bai Family in the capital and the Bai Family in Qingzhou were already two different branches.
If not for the fact that they had completely severed ties back then, her father’s enemies in the court would not have let Bai Yuantai’s family go south so easily. Her grandmother was surprisingly smart in this aspect of protecting her youngest son’s safety. She had asked the Bai Family Clan to completely expel their Kingdom-Stabilizing General’s Manor from the genealogy.
Who would know that after Bai Yuannian, the backbone, died in battle, his few immature children and the Grandmother, who had only been in the capital for two years and did not know the rules, could support the huge General’s Manor.
When the tree fell, the monkeys scattered. When her father became successful, the Bai Family members promoted him as the chief of the clan. In the blink of an eye, they became afraid of being implicated and completely cut off relations with them.
Bai Xianyu did not want to accept them so magnanimously.
She continued, “I want Grandmother and Auntie’s family to promise me that in the future, no matter if it’s in front of outsiders or in the residence, don’t refer to yourselves as the second branch of the General’s Manor. Staying here temporarily means staying here temporarily… Since you are not of the same genealogy, you are barely even our relatives.”
Bai Yuantai narrowed his eyes. “What does a little girl know? This General’s Manor belongs to my biological Eldest Brother! We’re all family. Don’t tell me you want to monopolize this General’s Manor!”
Bai Xianyu smiled faintly and said arrogantly, “Monopolized? Uncle, you must be joking. This General’s Manor belongs to my brothers and 1. It has nothing to do with you.”
Madam Bai Meng and Old Madam did not expect Bai Xianyu to make this request.
Rumors were terrifying. Bai Xianyu really wanted to seal their mouths, but their mouths were on them, and family scandals should not be publicized.
Since the opportunity to make them shut up had come, she had to seize it.
“Grandmother, think about it. Xianyu doesn’t think this condition is excessive,” Bai Xianyu said. “It’s just the truth.”
After Bai Xianyu left, the Longevity Hall was silent.
Bai Yu’er was the first to break the silence. “Father, Mother, why are you still hesitating? What if Bai Xianyu goes back on her word? Then I won’t be able to find my ideal husband!”
Bai Yuantai berated, “Be quiet.”
Madam Bai Meng directly pointed it out. In any case, there were no outsiders here. “She wants us to tell the truth. What’s wrong with agreeing to that? When our Yu’er finds a young master from an aristocratic family to be her husband, we can follow them and establish ourselves in the capital. It’s better than having to look at Bai Xianyu’s expression here!”
“That’s right, Father. I don’t think Bai Xianyu is an easy person to deal with. If she’s in a bad mood one day, she’ll probably even chase us out!”
Old Madam also said, “Yu’er is right. After Xianyu became an adult, her temper became even worse. She doesn’t even care about me. I’m old now, and I don’t know how long I can live. When I’m gone, I’m afraid there won’t be a place for all of you in the residence. My original plan was to let Tai’er and Mao’er take the examination here and find a good marriage for Yu’er. This way, you two will have a foothold in the capital.”
Qingzhou was still incomparable to the capital. Even the Longevity Hall was much more luxurious than their house in Qingzhou.
After a long while.
Bai Yuantai then said with his hands behind his back, “Then agree to her! If I had known, I wouldn’t have gone to Qingzhou back then..”
