Chapter 401 Vigilance
Dong's tone was flat, and he didn't pay attention to Fang's. Seeing that Bai Qingyan had finished eating steamed cloud legs with honey, he gave Bai Qingyan a Shuoyang-style pickled side dish with chopsticks: "As long as my mother calls her over When asked about the relationship, she would put on her face when she turned around, assuming the posture of a master to pick up guests on behalf of the White House."
Mrs. Dong took a sip of the porridge, smiled lowly and said to Bai Qing: "Ma'am, guess... this Mrs. Fang might go one step further and write invitations for our Bai Mansion on the grounds that Mrs. Fang doesn't know Shuoyang's relationship and spends too much time talking about it." .”
When it comes to the affairs of the back house, Dong Shi is a master, and the ghosts and snake gods really can't make any waves in front of Dong Shi.
"Although Fang's is not very good, his son is not bad." Bai Qingyan drank the porridge with lowered eyes.
"So, your position as patriarch is not for Bai Qingping's father, but for Bai Qingping?" Mrs. Dong looked at her daughter's eyebrows and smiled.
"Since most of us have returned from the Bai family, it doesn't matter whether the patriarch is talented or not, the key is being obedient."
Bai Qingyan also didn't want to do too much, at least let the previous patriarch see that he was removed from the position of patriarch, but his son took the position, so he would not be caught dead.
"Aniang doesn't need to bother with this Fang family, and she doesn't need to send someone to answer her. She will definitely understand the meaning of the White House. Now that her husband's position as patriarch is only temporary and has not been firmly established, she dare not make too much noise. What a big moth." Bai Qing said.
Bai Qingping took the matter of recruiting soldiers from Bai Qingyan, and went to discuss with his father when he returned that day.
Bai Qihe, who was originally only obsessed with repairing isolated copies of ancient books, listened to his son's talk about today's affairs in the Baifu, but seriously thought about how to do this recruiting job for Bai Qingyan.
"The children of the Bai clan who have reached the age of fourteen can also go together. It is to show the people of Shuoyang that they will know that our Bai clan sincerely atones for their sins and bears in mind the teachings of the Bai clan." Bai Qihe said.
In the past, it was Bai Qihe's father who had the final say, but now that Bai Qihe is temporarily acting as the patriarch, he also wants to do something to make up for the people of Shuoyang, not because he is greedy for this position.
Bai Qihe hoped that after Bai Qingyan, the lord of the Zhenguo County, came back to rectify the Bai clan, the clan would really know where they were wrong and repent.
"Father said so!" Bai Qingping nodded.
Bai Qihe's eyes fell on his son with steady eyes. Everyone said that the eldest son bears the burden of the family, and the second son eats, drinks and has fun, but his elder brother Bai Qiyun was spoiled by his parents, and his eldest son was also spoiled by his parents. Instead, he was the second son. Fortunately, he didn't grow crooked, and there was a hint of Bai's character on his body.
Bai Qihe has a faint smile on his face: "Although you are the second son, you are more stable than your elder brother. I am very relieved to be a father! It is rare that the princess thinks highly of you. You have to work hard for the county boss. Now my Bai family can rely on you. There is only the big tree of Princess Zhenguo. Of course... this remark of being a father is not to flatter you, you just need to remember that now the Bai family should be headed by Princess Zhenguo, and work together to shine on the lintel. Don't learn from your grandfather. Just tossing around in the three-acre field in front of me, only striving for small profits in front of me, and losing the long-term!"
The real aristocratic family pays attention to working together, Bai Qihe knows this very well, and even points out his father's mistakes in front of his son to warn his son.
Bai Qihe didn't have a patriarch's father over his head to suppress him, and he suddenly accepted the position of patriarch. After a few days of sleepless nights, he even faintly developed a bit of ambition to restore the Bai clan.
"Don't worry, father, son understands!" Bai Qingping said solemnly.
After Fang sent someone to send a message to the White House that day, he didn't receive a reply for two days, like ants on a hot pot.
Until early in the morning, when the White House sent an invitation to Bai Qihe, Fang finally couldn't hold back and called the mother-in-law who sent the message over, and asked if the message had been delivered.
The woman was very sure that the words must have been brought, but it is not known whether the word has reached Mrs. Dong's ears.
Fang was silent for a long time, and asked someone to change her clothes and set up a car for her to go to the White Mansion in person.
Unexpectedly, when Mrs. Fang arrived at the gate of the White Mansion, the informant returned to Mrs. Fang and said: "Our wife is not feeling well today, and I have to be busy with the banquet tomorrow, so I don't have time. Please forgive me."
"What about the princess? Is the princess free?" the maid beside Fang asked hurriedly.
Mrs. Fang pulled her maid, and Mrs. Dong couldn't see her and asked the princess, isn't this self-inflicted humiliation?
The well-trained servant of the Baifu didn't show any contempt, and he still looked neither humble nor overbearing.
"Two days ago, I asked someone to send a letter to Madam, thinking that if the banquet tomorrow will be useful for me, I am my own family and can help, but I haven't received a reply. I don't know if Madam has received the letter." Fang Shi laughed.
The servant said with a smile: "The White Mansion has its own rules. I shouldn't be a slave who inquires. If I inquire, it is a crime and I will be punished. Don't embarrass me."
Fang twitched her lips to force a smile, and looked sideways at the maidservant beside her.
The maid hurriedly handed over a purse, and the servant of the Bai Mansion changed his expression and declined: "Ma'am, we have strict rules in the Bai Mansion. If I accept your purse, I'm afraid I will be sold by the manager."
Fang clung tightly to the handkerchief, is this White Mansion really like an iron bucket?
The Fang family who had returned home in defeat returned to her yard, smashed two sets of tea sets, and was still angry.
Relying on her father-in-law as the patriarch these years, the Fang family has never been shut down in front of anyone, and now her man is the patriarch... Dong still doesn't give her face like this.
Even though she knows that the Bai family in Shuoyang is now attached to the Bai family in Dadu, but she is used to the behavior of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law before, and she always feels that the timing is changing, and it is her turn to be majestic, but everything is not going her way. .
Could it be that now that her man has become the patriarch, is she going to be a man with her tail between her legs?
"Madam, don't be upset. If the patriarch finds out, I'm afraid I'll be angry!" Pu Liu, Fang's personal maid, came in and cleaned up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, "Yesterday the patriarch has already told Madam that he will treat all members of the Bai family in Dadu. You must be cautious, if you let the patriarch know that Madam lost her temper when she came back from the gate of the White Mansion, she will definitely be angry."
Fang pulled on her handkerchief, full of complaints: "I gave up my face and went to the White Mansion to let others know that the Bai family treats our family differently, so that no one will dare to compete with him for the position of patriarch!"
Thinking of Bai Qiyun, who had already been expelled from the family, scolding her with his elder brother's airs, saying that even if Bai Qihe was the interim patriarch, he would not be able to last long, and had to rely on the breath of Dadu Bai's family to live, Fang's heart was fried!
The more others see them like this, the more she wants others to see them. Most of the Bai family rely on her to hold their first banquet back in Shuoyang.
