Chapter 420 Bai Hua's Thoughts
Chapter 420 Bai Hua's Thoughts
Meanwhile, Bai Jianming, who was on his way to Tianyang City, suddenly sneezed, unaware that he had been framed.
However, he felt in his heart that it was his brother who was cursing him. After all, Bai Hua's matter was not yet resolved, and he had to leave the capital. Before leaving, Bai Jianhua had been sarcastic towards him. It seemed that he could not keep that half-brother either.
Unaware that he had been abandoned by his elder brother, Bai Jianhua was scolding Bai Hua: "What's wrong with you? The storm hasn't even died down yet, and you've already..."
"Father," Bai Hua said dismissively, "Everyone says I'm a philanderer, so if I just find women, won't that rumor just disappear?"
"you……"
“Dad, my eldest uncle has passed away. Although some people have said a few words, no one dares to gossip about us. After all…” Bai Hua chuckled slyly, “My second brother is much more formidable than me.”
Bai Jianhua wanted to refute, but Bai Hua didn't give him a chance to do so.
"Father, don't be so honest. Look at you, how much trouble has Second Brother caused? Do you see any trouble at all?" Bai Hua couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Uncle is just biased, so Father, don't be so devoted to him. Isn't he just taking advantage of being the eldest son? If it weren't for him, the title of Marquis would have fallen into your hands. Then, even if I did something wrong, who would dare to say anything?"
Bai Jianhua: ...
What my son said seems to make a lot of sense.
"And another thing, didn't you see that Auntie went back to her parents' home? And doesn't my brother want the Marquis's mansion anymore?" Bai Hua pouted. "Let me tell you, Uncle is going to leave the Marquis's mansion to Bai An. Humph, Bai An isn't even as good as me."
Bai Jianhua remained silent, because he didn't know what to say.
"Father," Bai Hua leaned closer to Bai Jianhua and lowered his voice, "You said if Bai An dies, then this Marquis's mansion..."
"You..." Bai Jianhua's eyes widened instantly. "What are you going to do?"
"I was just saying," Bai Hua smiled. "Anyway, my uncle isn't here, nor are my aunt and brother. As long as Bai An listens to me, won't this Marquis's mansion be ours in the future?"
“Master, Hua’er is right.” Upon hearing this, Bai Chou’s eyes lit up. “If that were really the case, we wouldn’t have to be mindful of their attitude all the time, especially that Ge Yun, who is just a concubine but acts so arrogantly.”
Bai Jianhua's expression was complicated, but he had to admit that he had been persuaded. However, this matter needed to be carefully considered and a perfect plan had to be devised, otherwise, things would get complicated if things went wrong.
Yunyi had no idea that the Bai family had already started fighting amongst themselves because of the incident of poking someone's butt. She originally wanted to conserve her energy, but then she received a letter from home. All seven children had written on the paper. Da Bao wrote about what he had been doing these days, Er Ya wrote about the changes in the village, San Ya wrote about the changes in her younger siblings, Si Bao wrote about what delicious food he had eaten, Wu Ya and Liu Bao wrote about how much they had grown, and Xiao Qi Bao wrote, "Mom, Xiao Qi Bao misses you."
Yunyi prided herself on having seen much of the coldness and warmth of human relationships, and considered herself cold-hearted and indifferent. However, upon seeing these still somewhat immature words, her heart softened completely, and her nose even tingled with tears.
When Yunyi came last year, Da Bao and the others were all grown up and sensible. Only Xiao Qibao was a little over two years old. He was neither quite sensible nor quite sensible, but he knew some things. He was still in a daze, cute and innocent, and not very aggressive. Later, she stopped hitting or scolding them and fed them well. While the other children were still wary, this little guy wasn't so defensive. Later, he kept calling her "Mom" and so on. Therefore, she felt a little more affection for this little guy.
To be honest, after she left, the thing I missed most was this little guy.
"Young Miss, what's wrong?" Yun Zi, who came to deliver tea and snacks, was startled when she saw that Yun Yi's eyes were red.
“I received a letter from home. I miss the children,” Yunyi sighed. “I don’t know when I can bring them here.”
"If everything is alright here, we can go back and take a look."
“You make it sound so simple,” Yun Zi, who followed in, couldn’t help but say. “That’s Longxi. Even if you ride at full speed without stopping, it will still take seven or eight days.”
"Sister A-Lu, I was just saying it to make Miss happy, why are you ruining it for me?"
Yunlu chuckled: "Alright, it's my fault."
"Alright, you two, I'm fine. It's just that this little Qibao is too sentimental, I couldn't help myself."
"If the young lady treats them well, they will naturally treat the young lady well in return."
A thought suddenly flashed through Yunyi's mind: "Do you think... if I take Xiaoqi over and say he's my son, will the people here believe me?"
"Huh?" Yun Zi and Yun Lü were surprised.
“I’m a widow. I have a husband, so isn’t it normal to have a son?” Yun Yi glanced at the two of them. Besides, Xiao Qibao was different from Da Bao. Although the two brothers had the same parents, Da Bao looked too much like Zhou Jingyu, and the resemblance only grew stronger. They were the kind of resemblance that made you know they were father and son without even needing a paternity test.
Xiao Qibao, on the other hand, combines the best features of both Zhou Jingyu and Gu Chengyun, looking quite like both of them, but not quite like either of them.
Moreover, Gu Chengyun also has crescent-shaped eyes, which are somewhat similar to Yunyi's eyes, while Qibao inherited his mother's eye shape, so he is also somewhat similar to Yunyi.
If they are said to be mother and son, at most people will question Yunyi's age.
However, in ancient times, there were many women who gave birth in their teens. The first person she could think of was Empress Xiaokangzhang, the mother of Emperor Kangxi. She was born in December 1640 and gave birth to Xuan Ye in March 1654. So, she was only a little over thirteen years old when she gave birth. Therefore, it should be possible for her to have a three-year-old son, right?
Yun Zi and Yun Lü exchanged a glance. If the young lady says it's normal, then it's normal.
Yunyi thought it over and over and felt it was a good idea, so she went and wrote a letter to give to Nineteen, asking him to deliver it to Zhou Jinghan and tell the man her thoughts. As for whether or not to do it, she left it to him to decide.
Soon it got dark. After dinner, Yunyi told Yunlu and Yunzi not to come into the house to disturb her unless necessary, and not to come in until dawn.
Although the two girls didn't know why, they still agreed.
Yunyi waited until night fell before changing into her night clothes and leaving the Wonderful Pavilion. Of course, she couldn't walk there, as it would be too tiring. So, after leaving the Earl's Mansion, she took out a skateboard and sped off towards the palace like lightning.
