Chapter 970 Burning Incense and Praying for Blessings
The Tang family has always been known for its scholarly legacy, and all outstanding children in the family are given special emphasis in training, hoping to strengthen the family and continue the bloodline. Let the Tang family go further, so it is understandable that the Tang family does not want to miss outstanding talents like Bai Ansheng.
She already knew the purpose of Mrs. Tang's visit today, but she didn't want to get involved in this matter, so she could just leave it to Xiao Wu to handle.
The two talked for a while in the flower hall, and Mrs. Tang said goodbye and left.
Baiyunxi took a sip of tea and thought for a moment. Just as he was going to the warehouse, Wenyou came back.
"Aunt Bai, the person who attacked the fifth brother has been identified. Among the people who were executed, two of them left the escort agency, but the escort agency was owned by Hube Duzhi Qu Tao's brother-in-law. But Qu Tao was Mu The second father-in-law’s mother-in-law.”
Listening to the twists and turns of the relationship, Bai Yunxi twitched the corner of his mouth. In a word, the person who attacked Xiao Wu was still the Mu family.
"With so many connections, it's no wonder it's so easy to investigate. Do you think the Mu family knows about it?"
It's a bit stupid to think of taking so many twists and turns just to teach Xiao Wu a lesson.
It's so naive, maybe without the consent of the superiors, it's unknown.
"No matter what, it is true that the Mu family is extremely wary of the fifth brother." Wenyou narrowed her eyes, "Aunt Bai, now that we have found out, do we want to fight back?"
"Let me tell Xiao Wu first. As for how we will fight back, let's wait and decide for Xiao Si's wife first."
Baiyunxi rubbed her fingers. She had never underestimated the wealthy families in Kyoto, but if they really wanted to confront them, they were not unshakable.
Big trees with deep roots are good, but having too many branches can be troublesome.
"Wenyou, please check the Mu clan in the near future to be prepared."
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you fight without danger.
"good,"
After Xiao Wu came back, Bai Yunxi conveyed the Tang family's intention to him and let him decide how to deal with it.
"The Tang family boss must have taken a fancy to you and wants you to join the Tang family."
"It's not necessary. Father doesn't count on the Tang family, so I will naturally count on him."
The reason why they treat him differently is because they see him as a powerful person in front of officials and want to win over him. If he is useless, the Tang family will definitely avoid him.
"It is not an accident that my father is living abroad. Today, the head of the Tang family is just his father's half-brother. He is fighting for interests, and his father is the loser. I don't want to avenge my father's hatred at the moment, but I want to give him It’s impossible to serve the Tang family.”
You can't be too greedy and want everything.
Hearing that Xiao Wu had a plan, Baiyun Xi just ignored it.
"Sure, you just have to know what's going on."
In the following days, Bai Yunxi has been taking care of Xiaosi's marriage, from accepting the gift, asking for the name, accepting the gift, accepting the levy, asking for the date, setting the date of marriage, and waiting for the bride to enter the house.
After paying the betrothal gift, Baiyun Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief. In order to prepare the bride price for Xiaosi, she had been busy for a while.
Considering Xiaosi's age, Bai Yunxi discussed with the Xu family and set the wedding date in October this year, which was perfect.
The Xu family also agrees with this. Their daughter has been preparing for the dowry since she was born. Everything is ready-made and only needs to be sorted into the register.
When the date was set, Bai Yunxi sent a letter to Xiaosi, asking him to arrange things in the factory in advance, and then rushed back to prepare to be the groom's official.
For this reason, Baiyunxi directly cleaned up the side courtyard of the second courtyard and had it renovated and decorated to serve as a new house for Xiaosi.
The side courtyard also has three main rooms, two side rooms on the left and right, and three servant rooms at the back, which are enough for Xiaosi and his wife.
In order to show the importance to the woman, Bai Yunxi replaced all the furniture in the room with new ones from top to bottom, using walnut wood.
In a blink of an eye, the days have arrived in May, and the weather has entered summer.
All the busy work came to an end. In order to express his gratitude, Baiyunxi invited Duan and Mrs. Xu to go to Putuo Temple to offer incense and pray for blessings, and to escape the summer heat.
The three carriages gathered outside the city and then headed to Putuo Temple together.
The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain, and Baiyunxi got off the carriage. The breeze blew on his face, bringing with it a hint of coolness, which made him feel very comfortable.
"It's still cooler in the suburbs."
"That's right. There are many trees in the mountains and forests, which is a good place to escape the summer heat." Mrs. Duan helped the girl get out of the carriage and chuckled in agreement.
Bai Yunxi watched Mrs. Xu get out of the carriage, then looked behind her and raised her eyebrows, "Why don't you see Sister Rui? We are not outsiders. We have been busy for a while. It is good for our physical and mental health to come out for some air." "
Before Mrs. Xu could speak, Mrs. Duan couldn't help laughing.
"Pfft~, I see you are in a hurry. Sister Rui will come in soon. Why do you have to be in a hurry, godmother? Sooner or later, you will see your wife."
Bai Yunxi glared at her, "I'm not afraid of your jokes. I just miss Sister Rui. Who makes this girl likeable?"
At this time, it was rare for the girl to go out, and with the busy schedule of getting engaged, she really wanted the little girl to go out and get some fresh air.
Madam Xu listened to the two people's amusement and looked at Bai Yunxi's gentle face, feeling extremely happy. Although the Xu family had high hopes for this marriage, marrying the Bai family would only be beneficial to the Xu family.
But at the same time, she also hopes that her daughter will have a good ending. Bai Shuren is kind to her children, and the Bai family is also kind. Her thoughtless daughter will definitely not be wronged when she gets married.
Sister Rui is her little girl, and she loves her as if she were her eyes. She must not want her to suffer.
Knowing this, the Bai family asked Duan to come over and ask about the situation, and she agreed without thinking.
When a good marriage comes, you must seize it in time. Opportunities cannot be missed. According to the master, this is the sense of business.
"Bai Shuren likes Rui Jieer, which is the girl's blessing. I asked her about going out today, but unfortunately the girl was not moved. She was only focused on the wedding dress. No matter how I persuaded her, she would not go out. I really have no choice."
In theory, a woman's wedding dress should be embroidered by hand to show her importance, but the wedding dress is complicated. Most of them sew a few stitches by themselves and leave the rest to the embroiderer.
But the girl insisted on doing it herself. No matter how she persuaded, she would not listen. She had no choice.
"Oh, now we are relatives, don't call me a lady, it's strange."
Bai Yunxi listened to the voice of Mrs. Xu, and the smile in her eyes became stronger. The more she cared, the more it proved that the girl valued this marriage and was satisfied with Xiao Si's husband.
"What the relative said makes sense, it's my fault." Mrs. Xu smiled brightly and invited the two to go up the stairs together.
When we entered Putuo Temple, we were greeted by a master chef. It was not the peak season for incense, so there were not many pilgrims in the temple.
Bai Yunxi and his group were led by the master chef to the main hall to burn incense and pray for blessings.
Looking at the compassionate Buddha, Bai Yunxi worshiped devoutly, praying for the safety of his family, especially Xiao Si's marriage, hoping that it would go smoothly and peacefully.
For this reason, Bai Yunxi generously donated 200 taels of incense money to show his sincerity.
After praying, the three of them went to the pine tree garden in the backyard together.
