Chapter 159: Rejection
After all, they live next door, even if the five people from the Yao family are not allowed to go out at will and can't pass on the news, they can't stand the fact that they can't arrange for countless pairs of eyes to stare at it secretly.
So, the news that Bai Qingshuang bought eight subordinates quickly spread to the Bai family like the wind.
No, when the family went next door to say goodbye at night, some people couldn't stay idle again.
"It's all burning eyebrows, Shuang'er, you still have the leisure to spend money to buy people, aren't you afraid that you won't even have food to eat when the time comes?" Bai Zhang's face was sour, and he couldn't help but gloat.
Hearing her words, Bai Qingshuang knew that Bai Huang and Bai Qingyu must have said that their shop had competitors, so she smiled faintly and said: "Aunt Lao is worried, now Daddy's bundle can still support our family!" ”
"Speaking of which," I have always liked to pretend to be unfathomable, solemn, solemn and not speak casually Old Man Bai heard this, raised his eyelids, looked at Bai Zhihong and said, "You have now returned to your home, and there is no reason to continue to teach in other people's private schools, and Feng'er, it is time to go back to our school to study, and you went back to Liu Zhangyuan a year ago!" ”
As soon as this statement came out, it can be said that it was shocking.
Bai Zhihong didn't want to be that ungrateful person, and was about to open his mouth to argue with his father, but because the cuffs were torn, his attention immediately turned to his daughter, and he was at a loss.
Bai Qingshuang winked at him, and then pouted at Bai Zhigao, signaling her father to be calm.
Before Bai Zhihong's eyes could be turned away, he heard Bai Zhigao already speak eagerly: "Dad." I'm afraid that's not right! ”
"What's wrong?" The old man's eyes flashed, and he glared at his eldest son.
Bai Zhigao only felt that his scalp was numb, and he wanted to retreat, but when he thought of his father's preference for Bai Zhihong before, at that time, he had the intention of disregarding the rules of his ancestors and wanting to pass on the Bai family school to Bai Zhihong. How could he be willed!
Thereupon. He could only look back at Old Man Bai with the gaze of the old man and said, "Dad, the second brother was in the most difficult time, and Liu Zhangyuan accepted him, and now." But we have to let the second brother come back. Then the outside world may rumor that our Bai family is ungrateful. I don't know how to be grateful ”
Bai Zhigao knew that his father loved face the most, so there was no need to say much and defend himself, as long as he put the face of the Bai family in front. The old man will definitely hesitate.
And as long as he hesitates, then, things will not be so smooth.
While observing his father's complexion, Bai Zhigao secretly looked at Bai Zhihong, very resentful in his heart, and secretly thought: No wonder he is willing to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, it turns out that he still has a lot of ambitions, and wants to snatch the Bai family's century-old achievements from him! Hum! He won't let him get his wish!
Although Bai Zhifei has no inheritance rights at all, he is also much closer to Bai Zhigao, so he naturally wants to help his eldest brother, so he also said: "Yes! Dad, our Bai family has always respected teachers the most, and abided by benevolence, righteousness, etiquette and faith! The virtue of a man is also to me, and it must not be forgotten; I am virtuous to others, and I must not forget it. If the second brother is recalled and the truth is revealed, it will be disadvantageous to our family and the school! ”
Seeing that the eldest and third sons were opposing their opinions under the pretext of benevolence and etiquette, the old man's face was very bad, he glared at them coldly, and was about to speak, but the old lady Bai also interjected.
"Master, this outside matter shouldn't have been put in the beak by my wife, but I think what Zhigao and Zhifei said is not unreasonable. Not to mention how outsiders think of our family, just say that you always have to think about Excel and Feng'er. They don't care when they come back, they have the blessing of our Bai family's ancestors, if they only teach and study in the school, they will be blamed behind their backs, and they should not have heard it. It's just that Zhihong is still young, and now that he can regain his strength, he wants to make a difference, how can he ruin his future because of his reputation. No matter how windy it is, now that it is very good, God has mercy on our Bai family, and it will not ruin a child, don't you want this child to be prosperous in the future, master? ”
Old Madam Bai's words are reasonable, and she sounds very planned for the second room, but only she knows that she also doesn't want the second room to return to the Bai family school, so the future heir will really change.
Although the income of the school is not very rich, far less profitable than the few shops that Bai Zhang's family married, but the reputation of the Confucian family is not something that can be replaced by money, but accumulated over a hundred years of inheritance, how can she give these to the second room to sit and enjoy it!
It's just that she is very skillful in her objection, and it is completely for the second room.
Hearing this, Bai Zhihong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he still couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart. He knew that his father might be the only one in the family who wanted them to return to his school, but it was still uncomfortable to hear their impatient objections.
Seeing that Bai Zhihong hung his head silently without saying a word, Old Man Bai swept over his old wife, eldest son, and third son one by one with some resentment, and felt very uncomfortable.
The boss is a capable person, can he use such a brain? In addition to being more tactful, he is not as good as the second child in terms of wisdom, knowledge and studious spirit.
There are also the two grandchildren of the big room and the third room, and they are not as good as Bai Qingfeng who has only recovered his senses, of course he wants to bring the second room back.
However, these people only think about their own interests, but they don't understand his hard work, and they are still so righteous and righteous, looking like they are thinking about the second room and the Bai family.
But even if Old Man Bai was like a mirror in his heart, he still had to compromise under their remarks first, because he felt that the relationship with the second room was a little easier now, and he couldn't be in a hurry, so as not to hurt the heart of the second room family again.
But he still looked at Bai Zhihong without giving up and asked, "Zhihong, what do you think yourself?" ”
His idea has always been very unimportant, after Bai Zhihong recognized this, he raised his eyes and looked at his father indifferently, and said without being arrogant or humble: "The child obeys his father's arrangement!" ”
Aren't they the most particular about benevolence, wisdom, courtesy, faith, righteousness, loyalty, and filial piety? Then he will fulfill them! Anyway, he knew that Old Man Bai's decision alone could not overturn the three of them joining forces, so what else would he do with that bad guy.
Well answered!
Bai Qingshuang secretly praised her father, if Bai Zhigao is the smoothest of the three brothers, then Bai Zhihong, who wants to stop being stubborn to the end, will not let it go.
Old Man Bai looked at the obedient Bai Zhihong, sighed secretly, and couldn't help but fall on Bai Qingfeng, who was looking at his nose and nose, as if their discussion had nothing to do with him, and secretly thought, if this kid was good from the beginning. He will not drive them out.
"That being the case. Being a father can't make you sacrifice your reputation for the Bai family, so let's stay in Wutong Academy for the time being! However, if one day, it will not be able to stay there. You can come back anytime! "Even if you don't give up in your heart. But Old Man Bai still compromised for the time being.
The Bai family invariably breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, the same is true for Bai Qingshuang's family.
Just when they thought they were okay and could go home to rest, Old Madam Bai suddenly called Bai Qingshuang's name and said, "Shuang'er." I heard that there is also a flower shop on Evergreen Street, has it had a big impact on your business? ”
She knew that they were most concerned about whether their family could earn money.
Bai Qingshuang pursed her lips secretly, and said with a sad face: "If you go back to your grandmother, it is naturally big, but if people want to bloom and shop, I can't hold others back!" ”
It's better to shirk not making money now, and they're embarrassed to keep staring at her.
"Then you can ask that person to help seal their shop!" Old Madam Bai said a little anxiously.
She thought that sooner or later, one day she would have to ask for Bai Qingshuang's shop, and the income would be returned to the Bai family's public middle school.
Bai Qingshuang was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and looked at Old Madam Bai blankly: "Who did grandmother say to ask for help?" ”
"Huh?" Old Madam Bai felt that she was too eager, and almost leaked her mouth, so she immediately coughed in disguise and said, "Oh, grandmother means to see if your third uncle has any ideas to ask someone for help!" ”
Only Bai Zhifei is an official, although he is just a waiter from the Hanlin Academy, but the size is an official, and Mrs. Bai couldn't find an excuse for a while, so she took Bai Zhifei's top cylinder indiscriminately.
"Mother, the way to be an official is to be honest and honest, how can a child find someone to seal the shop indiscriminately!" Bai Zhifei didn't react for a while, and immediately said to Old Madam Bai with righteous words.
Old Madam Bai was so angry that she secretly rolled her eyes, and said angrily: "I just saw that Shuang'er lost and wanted to help her, if you can't help, don't talk too much!" ”
suffered a blank eye from his mother, Bai Zhifei really had a hard time.
However, after Bai Qingshuang came back to her senses, she secretly laughed almost guiltily, but she also guessed that Old Madam Bai's words might have some deep meaning.
Although I don't know what she means, she will never accept her love, and in the end, she will be pinched.
"Thank you grandmother for your concern, the shop doesn't make money in the first place, so Shuang'er didn't care too much!"
"Since you have opened a shop, it is only right to always hope to make money! We are a scholarly family, and your grandfather doesn't love his children and grandchildren, so he can't help you much! However, grandmother knows that Shuang'er is a powerful person, and she will inevitably have her own way, just remember that it is best to have your own flower shop! Old Madam Bai hinted lovingly.
Bai Qingshuang blinked innocently, pretending to be stupid: "Grandmother praised Shuang'er falsely, Shuang'er is very ashamed, selling flowers is just a moment of freshness, and I never thought of making a lot of money with it!" Moreover, Shuang'er is just a little woman, where is the ability, it still depends on the sky to eat! ”
Of course, she knows that she wants to make money, and her goal is to be the richest man in the dynasty.
However, how you make it, how much you earn, how much you earn, how little you earn has nothing to do with your Bai family, okay!
Old Madam Bai was deflated, and for a while she was eager to directly name her and ask her to ask the Nine Emperors for help. But seeing Bai Qingshuang so confused, I couldn't help but guess that she didn't know the true identity of the Nine Emperor Princes, so how could she know?
"Frost is really as humble as your father!" Old Madam Bai was congested for a while, so she could only say perfunctorily, and finally let Bai Qingshuang's family go home. (To be continued......)
