Chapter 1055 Displeased
Chapter 1055 ·Displeasure
Mrs. Min heard this and said displeasedly, "How dare she really think that? The Min family is not just a casual family. They have ancient precepts and uphold etiquette. Look at my brother. It's so difficult for heirs. When did they ever have to accept the throne?"
What are my concubine’s thoughts? Since she has a broad mind, why didn’t she decide how many concubines to give my brother? Now that my son is here, she can think more openly..."
Aunt Yi said, "Mrs. Min is also suffering from a serious illness and seeks medical treatment. Why did she only have a son, Mr. Liu?"
Mrs. Min said, "We will not get involved in this matter from now on, let the mother and son handle it themselves."
She was somewhat unhappy.
Aunt Yi nodded, "Yes."
Old Mrs. Min said again, "Call me Tao Qing from the Lixue Hall tomorrow. I want to ask him about the Lixue Hall. Summer is about to enter, and it is time to start arranging the repairs, or wait for the rain.
If we come down, it will be difficult to break ground."
Aunt Yi said, "Okay, when do you think it would be more appropriate for me to let him come?"
Mrs. Min thought for a while, "We have to wait until Brother Zhi comes back from his ancestral grave."
Aunt Yi agreed obediently.
Mrs. Min dismissed everyone and started painting again.
Bai Rongxuan returned to Ruyi Pavilion and was greeted by Aunt Fang and Xiao Yuan. After getting along for a while, the relationship between Xiao Yuan and Aunt Fang became particularly harmonious. Aunt Fang regarded her as her own child and took good care of her.
As soon as Bai Rongxuan sat down, Xiao Yuan poured tea and brought it over.
Bai Rongxuan took a sip gracefully.
Aunt Fang said, "Have you had lunch, Master Zhi?"
Bai Rongxuan nodded, "I used it and ate it in the minister's room."
Aunt Fang said, "Then you must not be full. How about I ask the kitchen to prepare some more for you?"
Bai Rongxuan said, "You guessed it wrong. Not only was I very full, but I was so full that I didn't have any prospects. I got off the carriage halfway and walked with Wu Jie for a long time before I finished eating."
In Aunt Fang's eyes, Bai Xiuzhi is not such a careless person.
Bai Rongxuan said quickly, "If you don't believe me, ask Wu Jie."
Wu Jie, who was standing aside, smiled and said, "The eldest lady is very enthusiastic, and it's hard for Master Zhi to refuse."
That’s how it turns out…
Aunt Fang smiled and said, "In that case, let the kitchen cook something light and refreshing in the evening, so that you won't be unable to eat."
Bai Rongxuan thanked Aunt Fang for her thoughtfulness, and then told her about the arrangements in the foreign minister's room.
Aunt Fang said, "Let's wait until Mrs. Min decides on the date. Anyway, it won't take too long, otherwise it won't be good to spread the word."
Bai Rongxuan took the opportunity to ask Aunt Fang about the Bai family's ancestral tomb.
Aunt Fang said, "The ancestral tomb of the Bai family is in the Baijia Temple. The Baijia Temple is not a temple, but a place name. It was not called this name a long time ago. Later, it was bought by the Bai family and enshrined in the ancestral hall.
It was changed into the Bai Family Temple. All the ancestors of the Bai family were buried there. Foreigners guarded the temple. They lived on the Bai family's financial support and sacrificed fields, but they kept to themselves. They have been doing their duty all these years.
There was no trouble."
Bai Rongxuan asked, "What foreigner?"
Aunt Fang said, "In fact, after all, they are also the Bai family, but they are not of the same bloodline as us, not even the outsiders, so they are called foreigners. Today, the Bai family is still a big family in the Baijiamiao, and most people in the local area have the same surname.
White."
Bai Rongxuan nodded, "Why is the ancestral hall located over there? I thought it would be built at home. It would be convenient for worshiping during festivals."
Aunt Fang said, "You are talking about ancestral halls. Ancestral halls are always built next to the sacrificial field. Besides, the location of the Bai family's ancestral tombs is particular. I heard that it was decided by a Feng Shui master in the early years of the Qing Dynasty.
May your descendants and families be safe."
Bai Rongxuan couldn't help but smile sarcastically.
If it was so effective, how could her brother die?
Bai Rongxuan said, "So that's it, then my father's tomb..."
Aunt Fang said, "The third master's tomb is also in the Baijia Temple, but it is some distance away from Mr. Bai, and it is not placed at his feet."
Generally speaking, the coffins of sons will be buried at the feet of their parents in order of eldest and youngest, so that they can still show some filial piety after death.
Bai Rongxuan asked in surprise, "Why is this happening?"
Aunt Fang said, "I don't know either. These things were all arranged by the old man. People outside speculated that he felt sorry for his son's early death and didn't want him to carry such a heavy burden after his death. He wanted him to feel at ease.
Reincarnation. As for the eldest master... he was buried beside the old master according to the rules."
They are both sons who died young, but their treatment is very different.
Bai Rongxuan said, "With this arrangement, he is not afraid that the eldest wife will be unhappy?"
Aunt Fang was stunned for a moment, and then said, "The eldest lady didn't say anything. Since the eldest master passed away, her thoughts have been focused on the eldest young master, and she doesn't pay much attention to other things."
Bai Rongxuan thought of Mrs. Shi's appearance like old roots of a dead tree, and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Aunt Fang sighed and said, "It has been really difficult for the eldest lady these past years. If it weren't for the support of the eldest young master, she probably wouldn't have been able to persevere."
Isn't this the case with Tang's family?
Therefore, her brother's death had such a huge impact on her, both in her past life and in this life.
No matter what, my mother survived this life and did not make the same mistakes again.
Bai Rongxuan said no more. After drinking tea, Xiao Yuan helped her change her clothes.
Xiao Yuan quietly said to Bai Rongxuan, "Don't worry, although I have a good relationship with Aunt Fang, I understand in my heart what I can and cannot say."
Bai Rongxuan was startled when she heard this.
After only a few days, Madoka has already understood the tact and sophistication of these adults.
Bai Rongxuan said with some distress, "Aunt Fang treats you sincerely. As long as you don't tell my secrets, you can have a good relationship with her."
Madoka smiled and said, "I won't tell you even if I die."
Bai Rongxuan was startled, "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't talk about life and death, you are still a child."
Xiao Yuan put away Bai Rongxuan's clothes and asked, "We have been in Shanghai for so many days, why is there still no news from Hangzhou?"
yes……
Bai Rongxuan also felt strange.
Logically speaking, the letter I sent back should have arrived.
It was true that what you read came to you. Early the next morning, Mrs. Min sent Forsythia to deliver a letter from the Tang family.
Bai Rongxuan invited Forsythia in for a cup of tea, but Forsythia refused to say anything, "It's just a few steps away, what kind of tea are you going to drink? If Master Zhi is trustworthy, it would be enough to ask me to go to Hangzhou to deliver the news."
Bai Rongxuan smiled and said a few words, then asked Aunt Fang to send her out.
On the way, Forsythia couldn't help but said, "Auntie, it's been some time since Master Zhi came back, and it's time for the Ruyi Pavilion to add more people. Otherwise, it will all be supported by you alone, and even the most agile person will be exhausted."
Aunt Fang said, "You have to ask Master Zhi what he wants before you can make a decision."
Forsythia said no more and said goodbye with a smile.
Bai Rongxuan couldn't wait to open the letter.
It is the character of Tang Songzhou.
Tang Songzhou told her in the letter that her family was very happy to learn that she had arrived in Shanghai safely, and asked her to take care of herself, put herself first in everything, and not to worry about her family.
It simply makes people feel that he is dealing with a stranger.
Bai Rongxuan read it twice and felt a little disappointed.
But after thinking about it, he could understand his uncle's good intentions.
After this letter arrived in Shanghai, it was unknown how many people had to pass through it before it finally fell into her hands. Once she wrote anything else in the letter, it would be a disaster for someone to see it.
Bai Rongxuan breathed a sigh of relief and began to write a reply to her uncle.
She followed suit. She thanked her uncle in a very polite tone, showed concern for Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Tang's health, and finally said that everything was fine and she didn't need to worry.
Bai Rongxuan wrote the letter and gave it to Wu Jie to deliver to the stewards in the mansion, asking them to help send it out.
Wu Jie took the letter and hurried away.
Chapter completed!
