Chapter 338: Creating Opportunities
Bai Muhibi smiled slightly, and said: "What did grandmother say, you must live a long life, granddaughter came to give good news to the old lady, the princess of Chu County sent someone to send the compensation of silver, a total of 30,000 taels, I have already let people check it, there is no problem with the silver ticket, I specially sent it to you to see!" ”
Old Madam Bai was slightly stunned, she was surprised that she had lost so much silver. But he pretended to be indifferent and said, "Well, Grandma Sun, you can help me take a look!" ”
The mandarin duck handed the silver ticket in his hand to Grandma Sun, and Grandma Sun took a rough look at it, and sure enough, it was 30,000 taels, which was much more than the value of the broken objects in the flower hall.
"The granddaughter thought, since the decorations in the flower hall have been smashed, then change a batch, and it has to be replaced, after all, it is a place to meet guests, and it should be bright and magnificent!" Bai Mu Hibiscus said with a smile.
Old Madam Bai looked at the thick stack of silver tickets, such a large sum of silver, naturally she could buy a lot of valuable things, but she was unwilling, and said: "I don't dare to continue to put the treasure there, maybe one day, someone has a grudge with the county lord and will smash it again!" ”
Bai Mu Hibiscus smiled and said: "That's better, we can continue to use better things, whoever smashes it once, will help us change to a batch of more precious ones, isn't this way of making money easier than anything else?" ”
Mrs. Bai was stammered by what she said, and there are still people who are looking forward to others coming to the house to smash it? She frowned and said, "What are these words?" Do you still welcome others to come to our house to make trouble? ”
"It's not welcome, if there are really those who don't have long eyes to send us silver, then there is no reason not to accept it, this time she paid 30,000 taels, and the next time it will be 60,000 taels, if it goes on like this, see who dares to come to the Hou Mansion to make trouble!" Hibiscus Shira.
Old Madam Bai scoffed at her statement and said, "Do you think everyone will be willing to be the wronged leader?" What if they refuse to pay? ”
Bai Mujin smiled before he said: "People who dare to come to the Hou Mansion to smash things, the things at home will not be worse than ours, so they will go to their house to move and replace them!" ”
"When did you learn to be so arrogant? Don't think that you can be unscrupulous if you are a county lord, after all, there are many people you can't afford to mess with! "Old Madam Bai thinks that Bai Hibiscus is probably whimsical!
Bai Muhibiscus raised his eyebrows and said, "Princess Chu thinks the same thing, but ...... She still has to pay money, I don't rely on my identity, I want them to know, even if I am nothing, I am not what they say! If our Hou Mansion can be so strong, who would dare to come to our Mansion to make trouble? ”
Bai Mujian's words were sonorous and powerful, which made Mrs. Bai feel empty, in the final analysis, she was also because after the old grandfather went, she was also timid, and she had no backbone, and she was bound to do anything. Bai Shizu is not angry, there is no big deal, and the youngest son is far away, she can only be cautious, hoping to seek the prosperity of the Bai family through her granddaughter!
But Bai Mu Hibiscus has this ability, but he can't control it, Bai Yunxi ...... In the end, it is still a little tender, and it is not as atmospheric as Bai Hibiscus, although it seems to have something to do with the prince of Chu County now, but whether it can be done or not, it is still two words!
And Bai Yunxi is still behind the Lu family and her brother in the end, even if there is a chance in the future, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not go to help her uncle, eat inside and out, but she does not want to see the situation.
Old Madam Bai thought of this, and then said: "Our mansion is not as good as a day, and we will change from a prince to a marquis, and you will be to blame for this matter!" ”
Bai Muhibiscus said: "Grandmother, this is a bad word, if it weren't for my father's belief in Aunt Lu, he would have put me to death, and he would have lied in front of the emperor, which made the emperor angry, it was a crime of bullying the king, the emperor was just a knight, and it was already a great favor to our family!" ”
Old Madam Bai snorted and said, "If you can think more about your father, it won't be like this, how can there be a daughter who goes-for-tat with her father and forces her father to sue you to the emperor?" ”
"The daughter doesn't dare to go toe-for-tat with her father, in the White Tiger Hall, the daughter has never said a word about her father's no, and finally pleaded for her father, will grandmother not know?" Bai Mu Hibiscus asked rhetorically.
Mrs. Bai was speechless, Bai Hibiscus is clever and clever here, obviously she planned it, but others can't catch her handle, according to her, the Bai family still has to be grateful to her, but she knows in her heart that the Bai family has become what it is now, it is caused by Bai Hibiscus!
Old Madam Bai didn't want to argue with her in this matter, after all, she couldn't get any results, so she turned to say: "How much grudge did you have with the Chu County Palace, and let the princess make a big fuss?" ”
Bai Mujin said lightly: "I don't know, I just said that Feng Shizi was splashed with feces on the street, it seems that a group of beggars quarreled with the Hualou woman and was injured by mistake, but the princess of Chujun counted the account on my head, but she didn't want to think about it, I am a girl's family, where will I know any beggars and Hualou women, isn't this slandering?" ”
Old Madam Bai frowned again, this is really damaging enough, when the street was splashed with feces, it was still splashed by beggars and flower building women, what a shame! No wonder the princess of Chu County is so aggressive, no one can bear it.
But how much does this matter have to do with the white hibiscus? She can't say it well, now she can't figure out this granddaughter, she often does some amazing things, and her scheming is not at all like a fourteen-year-old girl, if she does it, there is nothing impossible!
But she was reluctant to say her thoughts in front of Bai Hibiscus, after all, there was no evidence, she would not let Bai Hibiscus take the opportunity to make trouble with her again, her biggest idea now was how to control the power of the Bai family and not let the Lu family have a chance to snatch it. Although Mu Xinping has some brains, she is still more tender than the Lu family, and in many ways she is not as good as the Lu family, in other words, the Lu family will do everything to win favor and power.
So before the Lu family was reprimanded, the reason why Mu Xinping was steadily suppressed by her was here, but she didn't say it to Mu Xinping, but she didn't want a second Lu family to appear. Mu Xinping has to keep it like this, so that she can rest assured, so that she is not afraid that she will be disgusted!
Old Madam Bai said: "Then don't you explain clearly?" Why do you have to make a fuss, what good will it do you to offend the Chu County Palace? ”
Bai Mujin explained: "I didn't want to offend them, it was the people of the Chu County Mansion who didn't give up, I just accompanied them to the end!" ”
Do you want her to swallow her anger? Pretending to be generous? That's still a matter of the previous life, this life is destined to be impossible, if she can't be revenged, why is she still alive? Whoever wants to bully her, she must double the bullying back, so that even if she really dies, she won't lose!
Who knows how long she can live in this life, maybe like the previous life, even without Li Jizong and Bai Yunxi, without the Lu family and Bai Gaoxuan, she will still die early?
Old Madam Bai was very dissatisfied with Bai Hibiscus's attitude, and said: "As the saying goes, take a step back and open the sky, it is better to settle the grievances than to settle the knot. ”
Bai Mujin raised his eyebrows and asked: "Grandmother, as the saying goes, a slap can't be slapped, and the saying also says that you can't bear it anymore, if you want me to exchange my dignity for the so-called peace, it is not real peace, it must be oppressed, just like between the two countries, you only have to be on an equal footing with her, or even stronger than him, she will not dare to bully you!" ”
Old Madam Bai was very impatient with Bai Hibiscus's remarks, and said: "Forget it, you won't listen to how I persuade you, now your wings are stiff, and you can't listen to anyone!" ”
Bai Mu Hibiscus smiled lightly and said, "If it is a good word, I will naturally listen to it!" ”
"Do you mean I'm talking nonsense? How dare you speak to me like that, I am your grandmother, your elder! Old Madam Bai's face turned red with anger, and her weak body gasped.
Bai Mujin shook his head and said, "I didn't say that, I have already written down what my grandmother said, as long as people don't offend me, I will not take the initiative to cause trouble, this is my principle of life!" ”
Old Madam Bai said hatefully: "Okay, let's talk about it, you just refuse to stop, and one day you suffer a big loss, you know that if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer a loss in front of you, I won't persuade you, if you are okay, go back, I will have a headache when I look at you!" ”
Bai Mujian glanced at Mu Xinping, she didn't say anything from beginning to end, she stayed by the side like a wooden person, didn't move or speak, lowered her head and seemed to be preoccupied.
Bai Mu Hibiscus said: "Mother...... It looks a little bad, where do I still have some blood swallows, I'll send them to you later? ”
Mu Xinping touched her face and asked suspiciously, "Is it really that bad?" It's not a big deal, I think I'm a little tired, and I didn't sleep at night! ”
Bai Mu Hibiscus nodded clearly, it seems that Mu Shi is planning to hide his pregnancy for the time being, no wonder there is no movement at all these days. Mu Xinping is really a smart person, and she knows that now is not the best time to say it, after all, she can still stand out at present, and it is not the time to use her children to compete for favor.
Why don't you hide it for a few more days, wait for the fetal elephant to be stable, and it will not be easily harmed, and then tell the world that it is safe, everyone knows the importance of this child to Mu Xinping.
Bai Mu Hibiscus didn't point it out, and said, "Well, then mother pay attention to rest, but don't be tired of yourself!" ”
Mu Xinping nodded, she didn't say anything, she knew what to do, she didn't tell anyone about this matter except for her most trusted girl Xue'er, Bai Shizu invited the doctor over, and she also tried to hide it.
The Lu family is now eyeing the tiger, Bai Shizu has some thoughts about the Lu family, at this time, there must be no accidents, she must keep this child, only give birth to a son-in-law, she will not make any big mistakes, no one wants to take away the position of this wife!
Bai Mujin said to Mrs. Bai again: "Grandmother, the flower hall is still empty, and now that there is silver, I will send someone to buy some back, and I can't keep it empty." My grandmother is not in good health now, and my mother seems to be running out of energy, so why don't you let my father deal with it, what do you think? ”
