The Lantern Festival is a day of family reunion, and the entire White House has been busy for several days, waiting for this reunion dinner!
Perhaps it had been too long since she had seen Bai Yanqing's daughter, or perhaps she felt guilty. During the dinner, Bai Yanqing's good father, Bai Jingxuan, the head of the Bai family, ordered his servants to take care of Bai Yanqing many times. Whenever she took a second bite
He ordered people to bring all the dishes and put them in front of Bai Yanqing. The love and care fell in everyone's eyes.
What others speculated was not important to Bai Yanqing. She just raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at the "highly respected" old lady of the Bai family, Bai Yanqing's direct grandmother: Ren.
There was no joy in meeting her again after a long separation in her eyes, nor was there any expression of love between the elders and the younger ones. On the contrary, her face was extremely gloomy, and there was a bit of anger and dissatisfaction hidden in her eyes.
Bai Yanqing understood. She lowered her head and fiddled with the dishes on the plate gently with her chopsticks. As if she didn't notice Ren's sharp eyes, she picked up the dishes on her plate and tasted them in small bites.
Besides, the servants of the Bai Mansion are accustomed to follow the wind. In the past, I saw that Ren was not happy with Bai Yanqing, and these servants were somewhat neglectful of her in private. Now, looking at the only male master of the Bai family,
Everyone understands the many times she has taken care of Bai Yanqing! She Bai Yanqing
Even if Yan Qing is no longer liked by Mrs. Bai, after all, she is still the serious eldest daughter of the Bai family. With that status, no one can shake her status! Those who come from outside will not be able to please Mrs. Bai again.
Huan Xin, that’s not the serious concubine of the Bai family!
The people in the Bai family were all thinking to themselves, so they became more efficient in serving Bai Yanqing. Bai Furong, mother and daughter, who were obviously being left out, looked a bit embarrassed on their faces.
Before Bai Yanqing returned home, Lai Feiyan and her sisters were the most proud in public. Now that Bai Yanqing is back, their status is naturally not as good as before.
Everyone in the room had their own thoughts, and in the dull atmosphere, they managed to have a reunion dinner.
At the end of the meal, after everyone had had tea and snacks, it was obvious that Ms. Ren couldn't hold it any longer. Just when she was eager to say something, someone unexpectedly spoke before her.
"Yan Qing, you haven't returned home for a long time. If you have nothing else to do now, please go to the study with your father to talk about it!"
Bai Jingxuan spoke suddenly, taking the lead to break the dull atmosphere. No matter how much Ren winked at him, Bai Jingxuan acted as if he had never seen him. He stood up and walked towards the door. Only Ren, Bai Furong and her daughter were left looking at each other.
.
What is supposed to come, will come eventually...
Bai Yanqing sighed secretly, then stood up, straightened her clothes, and wanted to follow Bai Jingxuan.
"Wait!"
Madam Bai stood up abruptly, and then winked at Aunt Shen behind her. The old woman understood what was going on, so she quickly stepped forward and blocked Bai Yanqing's way with her hand.
"Mother, what do you mean?"
Before Bai Yanqing had time to speak, Bai Jingxuan, who was about to step out of the threshold, frowned and looked back at Ren with dissatisfaction. It was obvious that he was somewhat dissatisfied with Ren's move.
"If you called Yan Qing alone without Feiyan, I'm afraid it would be unfair. You agreed to be your mother at the beginning..."
Ren's words were quite angry, and her eyebrows were full of dissatisfaction. As she spoke, she did not forget to glare at Bai Yanqing several times: This little hoof is really as unlovable as her dead mother.
, now I want to make myself unhappy next time!
"My son called Yan Qing because I haven't seen her for a long time, and I just wanted to talk to my son and daughter about the relationship between father and daughter. Mother, don't worry too much! As for the thing you are thinking about...in my heart...
Have your own opinion!"
After Bai Jingxuan finished speaking, he glanced coldly at the old woman beside him, and was so frightened that Aunt Shen quickly retracted her arm. After all, Bai Jingxuan is still in charge of the Bai family, and he is the god of the Bai family!
Bai Jingxuan's words seemed to be addressed to the Ren family, but they actually meant to warn everyone in the Bai family. On the one hand, it implied that Bai Yanqing was the daughter of Bai Jingxuan and the legitimate daughter of the dignified Bai family. It also indirectly showed that he
He has no intention of giving up on his daughter. Secondly, he has expressed his attitude and position. No matter what they want to discuss, everything is decided by him, Bai Jingxuan, and no one else can be the boss of his Bai family!
After saying this, the expressions of the people in the room quietly changed. Some were unwilling, some were afraid, some were dissatisfied, some were angry, and some were jealous...
Only the person in the center of the whirlpool seemed to be staying out of it.
That thing?!
Ha, interesting.
Bai Yanqing followed Bai Jingxuan leisurely, always keeping a few steps away from him. The father and daughter just walked along with their own concerns.
In the study room.
The father and daughter were silent for a long time, but Bai Jingxuan finally spoke first. Because he really couldn't understand his daughter. In this confrontation, it was he who lost his composure first.
"I think you should also know why I took you back home this time."
Bai Jingxuan thought for a moment and pointed it out bluntly.
Bai Yanqing remained silent, only staring blankly at the man in front of her. This man she had called her father for more than ten years, this man who had been absent from her life for many years, this man who had always allowed outsiders to bully her and ignored her.
The person who didn't ask was actually her father! If he said he wasn't resentful, that would be a lie! He thought that if he gave her a few more chopsticks, she would be able to forgive him for his neglect of her over the years? Impossible!
"Even if my father doesn't say it clearly, I think you have a way of knowing."
Seeing that Bai Yanqing had not spoken for a long time and was obviously lost in thought, Bai Jingxuan opened his mouth to remind him.
Hearing this, an imperceptible sneer flashed across Bai Yanqing's lips! Yes, others don't know what Bai Yanqing has been up to over the years, but as her father, Bai Jingxuan, even if he ignores her, he will still send people to monitor her secretly.
. So, all the things she went through, she
She had no intention of hiding it from Bai Jingxuan. After all, in the whole Bai family, her good father was the only one who regarded her as the daughter of the Bai family! However, the Ren family and Bai Furong, mother and daughter, really thought that she had been raised in Zhuangzi all these years.
, is a fool who cannot hear what is happening outside the window. It is lamentable, pathetic and ridiculous!
"Father...what are you referring to?"
Bai Yanqing gently raised her hand and covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. A slightly sick look appeared on her face for a moment. Then she raised her eyes, her watery eyes were full of confusion.
"You don't have to be so coy and look at me like this! The Ji family... is not an ordinary family."
Bai Jingxuan had something to say, and he didn't make excuses with her, he spoke directly.
After hearing this, Bai Yanqing was slightly startled, and then smiled. Obviously, she was not very surprised by Bai Jingxuan's words.
Oh, Ji family?
He still has the nerve to mention the Ji family! Thanks to her good father, he still remembers the Ji family!
Bai Yanqing always thought that since the death of her mother Ji Jinchu, her good father would not remember her mother and her mother's mother's clan. After all, Bai Jingxuan has been ruthlessly banishing his and Ji Jinchu's only daughter to Zhuangzi for any number of years.
Bai Yanqing was left to fend for herself, never caring more and never fulfilling her responsibilities as a father. Not only that, she disciplined herself
After Jinchu's death, the Bai family even cut off contact with the Ji family and drew a clear line! Not to mention weekdays, even during the holidays, Bai Jingxuan never visited his father-in-law's house in person. It seemed that since Ji Jinchu's death, he
The Bai family is no longer like an in-laws! Therefore, now that he suddenly mentions the Ji family, it is inevitable that Bai Yanqing's expression will be filled with ridicule and disdain!
Bai Yanqing's mother, Ji Jinchu, was the legitimate daughter of General Ji Zheng. The original marriage between the Bai and Ji families was granted by the Holy Emperor himself! One was the dignified Prime Minister of the Chen Kingdom, and the other was the General's Mansion behind them.
Well matched, good
What a match! This caused quite a shock in the capital back then! Everyone said that Ji and Bai were a perfect match, and could equal half of the Chen Kingdom! It can be seen that this marriage caused a stir in the Chen Kingdom.
What a sensation!
It is said that Ji Zheng, the general of the country, in addition to his legitimate daughter Ji Jinchu, also has an eldest son named Ji Jinxiu! Speaking of Ji Jinxiu, this is even more embarrassing! He has not chosen in this life.
In politics, and in the eyes of outsiders, he
If he is not good at writing or martial arts, he has not inherited half of the good genes from his mother and me! On the contrary, he has a somewhat extraordinary mind when it comes to business! Therefore, after many choices, he joined business.
Dealing with those three religions and nine streams all day long.
Besides, when Ji Jinchu died, Ji Jinxiu was the only son left in the Ji family. The Holy Emperor favored him and granted him the position of marquis, allowing him to become a marquis in vain. This shows the importance of the Ji family in the heart of the current Holy Emperor, as well as Ji Jinxiu's.
The family's prestige in the Chen Kingdom is truly a position that no one can shake!
But it happened that such a powerful in-law could not win the eyes of Mrs. Ren of the Bai family! Ultimately, it was because Ji Jinchu passed away after leaving only one daughter, Bai Yanqing, and was not able to live up to the expectations of the Ren family.
I wish to give her a direct son to the Bai family
Son. Due to the power of the Ji family and the face of the Holy Emperor, Bai Jingxuan could no longer recruit new people. In Ren's words, it was because the Ji family had cut off the incense of her Bai family! Therefore, over the years, the Ren family often
Secretly scolding Ji Jinchu for being a harmful person,
Therefore, she often vented her anger on Bai Yanqing and had a bad look on her. Therefore, a few years ago when Bai Yanqing was young and still in the palace, the Ren family allowed the Lai sisters to bully Bai Yanqing. Later, they even made their own decisions and punished the weak body after falling into the water.
Bai Yanqing sent him to the city
He kept it on Waizhuangzi, euphemistically calling it: the outside of the city is clean, no noisier than the capital, and more suitable for recuperation. However, who with a discerning eye can't see it? This was left by Ren family deliberately to slap the Ji family in the face and to make things difficult for Ji Jinchu.
This daughter uses this to vent her anger!
However, how could Bai Jingxuan, the head of the Bai family, not know this thing that everyone knows? It's just that he didn't dare to contradict the Ren family because of his filial piety! Therefore, he could only aggrieve his mother who lost his mother when he was young.
