Chapter 1016 Protection
Chapter 1016 ·Protection
After seeing off Madam Yi, Bai Rongxuan felt exhausted and she didn't even have the strength to stand. Xiaoyuan asked in a low voice, "Master Zhi, are you exhausted? Go back to your room to rest."
Bai Rongxuan nodded and was taken back to the room by Xiaoyuan.
She dealt with a large circle of people, and at this moment she was so tired that she didn't even want to say anything. Xiaoyuan was busy pouring tea, while Aunt Fang stood aside and looked at Bai Rongxuan carefully.
Bai Rongxuan took two sips of tea and asked Wu Jie, "Have you put your luggage in place?"
Wu Jie shook his head, "Not yet, I'm busy, I'll come over quickly when I hear the movement."
Bai Rongxuan said, "There is only one left now. You can go and put your luggage first."
Wu Jie then turned around and walked out.
Aunt Fang stepped forward at the right time and bowed to Bai Xiuzhi, "I have met Master Zhi."
Bai Rongxuan said politely, "Aunt Fang, don't be polite, sit down and talk."
Aunt Fang was very cautious and still stood by the side in a regular manner.
Bai Rongxuan didn't force herself and asked in confusion, "Why did Mrs. Min send you here? Is the house on my grandfather's side not under the care of someone?"
Aunt Fang didn't expect her to ask so directly, and said with a smile, "This is just a face for Mrs. Min. I served the old man and stayed in the third room for a while. Since the old man passed away, my identity has become a little awkward, so I can only guard the old house. Now that Mr. Zhi has come home, Mrs. Min is afraid that you want to inquire about something but can't find a suitable person. After all, I have been in the Bai family for a few years and know something deeply, so she makes the decision to transfer me over. In this way, I can also say whatever you want to ask."
I guess the second wife is trying to suppress it?
Bai Rongxuan didn't expect Mrs. Min to treat her so well.
She thought about it, but couldn't help but ask, "Is the relationship between the Min family and the second wife very bad?"
Aunt Fang immediately understood what she meant and whispered, "That's not, you're worried too much. The Min family is now full of flowers and brocade, and the second house will not be able to compare with it for a while."
Bai Rongxuan nodded.
Since Mrs. Min doesn’t have to come forward to compete with the second wife by herself, why is she so good to herself?
Aunt Fang smiled and said, "Mrs. Min has always respected me one foot, but I will give me one foot. Don't think that she doesn't like to pay attention to nothing, but she is a very easy person to get along with. As long as you respect her more in the future, there will naturally be benefits. She will do her best to protect you."
Is it that simple?
Bai Rongxuan couldn't believe it.
If this is true, how could Mrs. Min choose the second house to move and let herself enter the house?
He also specially invited Master Min Liu to come and hold the scene.
When I saw Min Liu's unwilling expression, I knew that he could come, because it was entirely for Mrs. Min's face.
If it weren't for this aunt, he wouldn't have had nothing to do and run to the Bai family to show his care and face to the strange Bai Xiuzhi.
Thinking of this, Bai Rongxuan asked, "Will the second house move today?"
Aunt Fang nodded, "Yes, I've been working hard for a few days and I've officially moved out today. Now the well-known families in Shanghai have bought land and built villas in places facing the concession. How can the second house be condescending to the people? Naturally, I also found a foreign designer to build a magnificent villa. According to Mrs. Cai's second house, I wanted to move out long ago, but two things happened in the front, which has been delayed until today. The second house has a large population, and although the newly built villa is spacious, it still cannot be lived in. The older aunts have been left at home. If you see it, you don't have to pay attention to it. Just think that you didn't see it."
It turned out that a villa was built.
Bai Rongxuan trance remembered that she seemed to have heard of this in her previous life. Because the construction period was so fast, a worker was smashed by a collapsed beam and died on the spot. The Bai family also paid a lot of money, which caused a sensation at the time.
Aunt Fang continued, "It cost a lot of money to build a villa in the second house. Mrs. Cai is a person who likes to write everything on her face. In order to let people know the popularity of the Bai family, everything is the best. Now the Bai family's villa is the best in Shanghai, and even the Min family cannot compare. People in the second house think they are superior and their waists are straighter than before. It's a pity... Although the appearance of the Min family's villa is a little worse, its location is in the concession, which is something that the second house cannot compare to."
Is Min Liu's relationship with foreigners so good?
When a villa is built into the concession, it is equivalent to gaining protection from foreigners.
Bai Rongxuan said, "So that's what it is..."
Aunt Fang's eyes rolled, as if she had thought of something, and said, "Why don't you say that the old lady feels sorry for you? This day of entering the door is really great."
Very good?
Bai Rongxuan raised her head in surprise.
Aunt Fang met her gaze and explained with a smile, "Think about it, if you are asked to come back before the fourth day of the third month, the second master and second wife Cai in the second room are your elders. How can you not come over to meet? If you want to talk to the person who is the most jealous in the second room? If the third room dares to rank second, no one dares to be the first. What good face can you get? You will inevitably get some anger..."
Bai Rongxuan thought of the humiliation she suffered in front of the Bai family’s gate in her previous life.
Although the words were spoken from Bai Linglong, if there was no laissez-faire and instigation from Bai Yuande and Mrs. Cai Er, how could she dare to be so rude and mean?
Aunt Fang said, "You can come back after the fourth day of the third month. People who are not sure about the situation will say that you are afraid of the second house and go home after they move out, just because they are afraid of confronting the second house. Then the second house will make a few more noises. Before you go out to act, you will be labeled as weak and incompetent. You should know that the people in Shanghai are the most important thing for social interactions. Who is willing to date and move with you? So when you enter the door on the fourth day of the third month, it is really good. When outsiders see this, they will only say that you don’t want to interact with the second house, rather than being afraid of them. Mrs. Min’s move is actually protecting you."
So that's it.
Bai Rongxuan immediately reacted and felt ashamed that she couldn't raise her head.
Fortunately, she still suspected that Mrs. Min was not kind-hearted.
Aunt Fang said on the side, "With the current status of the Min family, no matter what Mrs. Min asks, Mrs. Min can help her achieve her wish. She really doesn't have to fight with you. Besides, after getting along over the years, although Mrs. Min doesn't fight or rob, Mrs. Cai has never been able to ask for anything under her hands. The reason why the second wife moved away was that Mrs. Cai and Mrs. Rui didn't want to live under Mrs. Min's nose."
Bai Rongxuan asked in a low voice, "Where is the second uncle?"
Aunt Fang said, "Since the time when the ruler was handed over to Master Rui, Master Rui did not come home very much. At first, it was only ten days and half a month without seeing anyone, but then it was common not to come back for a few months or even half a year."
Her second uncle is no longer saved...
Bai Rongxuan frowned in disgust.
Aunt Fang said, "You only have peace of mind to live in Ruyi Hall, and you don't have to think about anything. When the weather gets warmer, we should start repairing the Lixue Hall. Then you go and see if there is any unsatisfactory place."
Bai Rongxuan couldn't help asking, "Who is guarding over there now?"
Aunt Fang said, "Do you still remember the wet nurse Tao's mother?"
Bai Rongxuan heard her mother mention it.
She nodded, "Remember."
Aunt Fang sighed, "Mom Tao died of illness three years ago. She kept saying your name before she died, and wanted to look at you, but in the end she couldn't get it. Now, Tao's eldest son Tao Qing is in charge of Lixuetang. Her second son, your titty brother Tao Yong, helped him. The two brothers are diligent. Thanks to them over the years, otherwise Lixuetang might have withered. You have just arrived at home and I will let the people from Lixuetang come to kowtow to you tomorrow."
