Bai Xingyan has not been to court for several days, so he has to go today.

After Bai Heran accompanied the old lady to have breakfast, he took the old lady for a walk in the mansion, scattering from Jinrong Courtyard to the front yard. The two grandparents and grandchildren talked and laughed. The servants who passed by and saw this scene felt very novel. After all, the old lady hadn't come out and walked around in this way for too long.

In the past, she didn't want to meet someone she didn't want to see, so since Bai Heran was forcibly sent to Luocheng three years ago, she rarely went out. Unless she had to give Bai Xingyan face and sit together for dinner during festivals, she would stay in Jinrong Courtyard and would not come out if she could.

But Bai Heran just told her that walking more is good for her health. She has been treated with acupuncture these days, and she really feels that her body has been much better.

And the most important thing is that when she was just persuading her to come out, Bai Heran said that this is the Bai family, their home. If you give in again and again, it would be equivalent to giving up the Duke Wen of Wen to others. It is their business to take over, at least we cannot take the initiative to give it to you.

The old lady felt that her granddaughter was right. Children who have been sick for so many years can become strong. Why can't she set an example?

With this feeling, the old lady once again walked in the Duke of Wenguo's Mansion in the form of her master, and seemed to have really regained the feeling of the old Duke when she was alive. Unexpectedly, the Duke of Wenguo, which was once so glorious and harmonious, has now become such a situation.

When the female family in the mansion heard that the old lady was in the front yard, they followed her. The first one of Ye and Bai Jinghong arrived, Bai Huayan also followed her.

When he saw Bai Heran holding the old lady walking around the front yard, Ye quietly gave Bai Jinghong a wink. Bai Jinghong immediately understood what his mother meant. So he adjusted his smile and stretched out his hand for the old lady: "Grandma, let Jinghong help you!"

The old lady looked at her and saw that the injured place on her forehead was blocked by a pearl ornament. She was still charming and shining. But she didn't like this kind of light because it was calculating and vicious inside.

"No need, you just fell and your injury has not healed yet. Just take care of yourself! Just have A Ran support you." The old lady avoided Bai Jinghong's hand, and Bai Jinghong made a shameless fuss.

Bai Huayan, who was standing beside Ye, was already upset because of the previous incident of hurting Bai Jinghong. Now that she saw that the old lady did not give Bai Jinghong face, she felt that it was her chance to show off. So she spoke up for Bai Jinghong: "The eldest sister also wants to be filial to her grandmother. How could her grandmother refute such good intentions?"

A "giggle" laughter came not far away, and then someone said: "Miss Fifth is still a child, just talking about the naive words that only children will say. Even if you can't figure out what filial piety is!"

This typical giggle and unscrupulous run, except for the concubine Hong, there is no other one in the entire Wenguo Duke's Mansion.

Everyone looked in a word and saw Hong and Bai Zhenzhen walking happily. The two of them had too many jewelry on their bodies, and they were still jingling when they walked, which made the white flower-like face so jealous that they were almost crazy. But Bai Zhenzhen said while walking: "Although the fifth sister is young, she is still a girl in her early 10s. Why is she still so quiet on her body? Didn't her mother buy you a few sets of clothes that are not ashamed to wear on weekdays?"

After saying that, he paused and smiled, "Oh, I forgot that you no longer follow your mother, and you are back to your aunt. Auntie Xiao Ye has no good things to give you, but did your mother prepare anything for you in the past?"

Ye gritted his teeth with hatred. After finally comforting Bai Huayan, Bai Zhenzhen started to make trouble again. So she quickly answered the words: "In the past, Huayan was still a child, and a woman was only ten years old, so she could not buy those clothes, which would damage her blessings. Now this year is enough. When my birthday party is over, it is time to buy Huayan."

Bai Huayan quickly said sweetly: "Thank you, mother, I know that mother is the best for Huayan." After that, she also added to Hong: "Since Aunt Hong said that helping her elder sister is not considered filial piety, then you are talking about what filial piety is?"

Hong walked up, stood in front of the old lady, respectfully bowed to the old lady with Bai Zhenzhen and asked her. Then she said, "If you really want to be filial, you have to show some practical things." She looked at the old lady: "I heard that the second lady is helping the old lady to take care of her body recently. I don't understand medical principles and can't help anything. But since it's for maintenance, it must be necessary to supplement. So I handed the message to my parents' house yesterday. Early this morning, my parents sent someone to deliver twenty boxes of blood swallows and two ginseng trees that were five hundred years old. I have already asked someone to send it to the old lady's house. The second lady looks at it and it's not enough. I'll ask my parents for it. In addition, my parents' family also sent 10,000 taels of silver notes, and I also sent them there."

Bai Zhenzhen looked at Bai Huayan and her chin, "See you, this is what it means to be filial. Don't always make up those vain all day long."

Bai Huayan jumped up in anger and scolded loudly: "Bah! Why are you proud? You just rely on your parents' home!"

Hong was not angry and agreed very happily: "Yes, it's up to my parents' home. There's no way, who makes my parents' home rich!"

Bai Huayan was so blocked that she said nothing, Ye took the words: "Respecting the elderly lady is what we juniors should do. When the birthday party is at the Ye family or the aunt in the palace, they will send things over. I have already made plans, so I will naturally respect the elderly lady at that time."

Bai Heran, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly said "Huh", "Isn't this the case in previous years? My mother holds a birthday party every year. Haven't she ever respected the old lady before?"

Ye paused, looking embarrassed, and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Bai Jinghong answered the words: "Friendship does not have to be chosen on a specific day. My mother always cared about her grandmother's end. Last summer, she also gave her an ice jade mat. It was originally sent by the Ye family for her mother, but her mother was reluctant to give it to her grandmother."

"Oh." Bai Heran nodded, "That's really good. Since there is also filial piety on weekdays, there should be no need to carry the birthday gift to Jinrong Courtyard at the birthday party, otherwise it would be like my grandmother who wanted to take those birthday gifts when it was heard out!"

The old lady nodded, "Yes, those are all gifts you receive, and I will never ask for them no matter what. I haven't asked them before, and it's even more impossible to ask for them in the future."

"Actually, in this way, my mother's wealth should not be much worse than Aunt Hong." Bai Heran pinched her fingers to make a calculation for Ye, "I have been married to my father for ten years and hold a birthday party every year. Although I was sick in the past, I had to show my face on such a big day. My mother received countless birthday gifts, and with the face of Duke Wen and the Empress Dowager of the current dynasty, no gift could be too shabby. This gift lasted for ten years, and it was so rich and powerful!"

Ye shook, vaguely feeling bad.

Sure enough, Bai Heran's next words were at the critical point: "In order to be worthy of his mother's identity and to set off this precious gift, our Duke Wen's mansion also spent a lot of money on birthdays, and the silver spent every year must also be... " She looked at Hongshi.

The Hong family immediately said: "At least 100,000 taels." A woman from a merchant family has a natural sensitivity to money.

"Oh, at least 100,000 taels, that's one million taels in ten years, and that's the least." Bai Heran asked Ye, "Did my mother pay this money by herself?"

Before Ye could speak, Bai Huayan rushed forward again: "How could it be that my mother was born by herself? My mother was the head of the house in our house. The head of the house celebrated her birthday, of course, the house paid the money for it."

"That's it!" Bai Heran nodded thoughtfully, "It turns out that over the past ten years, Duke Wen's mansion has paid more than one million taels of silver to hold a birthday party for his mistress. However, the birthday gift received by the mistress of the house seemed to have never handed a document to the Duke."

Bai Jinghong frowned, and was so suffocating that he didn't say anything, so he couldn't help saying, "How come you have never submitted a piece? Besides, the mother has always been in charge of the feed in the mansion. How to use it and fill it is not the turn of a junior to point fingers."

Bai Heran smiled, "It's so funny, just chatting. When did I ever point fingers? Did you see or hear?"

"I..." Bai Jinghong was speechless and said for a long time: "You mean that inside and outside."

"Big sister, why do you want to kill me?" Suddenly, Bai Heran made up such a sentence, and looked horrified, "How did I offend you? As for letting you kill me?"

Bai Jinghong was shocked, not only she was shocked, but everyone present was shocked.

Where do you start with this?

"When did you hear me say I want to kill you?"

Bai Heran spread his hands, "You mean that's right inside and outside!"

"You..." As soon as she said something, someone turned around, she fought back. Bai Jinghong felt that she was becoming less and less confident in facing Bai Heran. Her light words could block her speechlessly. This was no match at all. She began to worry about the future. For her, this Duke Wen's Mansion had begun to move from light to darkness.

Bai Zhenzhen smiled so much that she was not very imaginative, leaning forward and backward. Because she was too big, a string of white jade-filled pearls and gems on her head fell down, landing on the blue brick floor, and broke with a snap.

Bai Huayan subconsciously said "ah" and even Bai Jinghong looked to the ground. Madam Li, who was following the old lady, quickly went forward to pick it up, but because the material was jade, it fell to pieces and couldn't be picked up completely.

Madam Li kept sighing: "What a pity, what a pity, this thing...is particularly expensive, right?"

Bai Zhenzhen thought for a while and said, "It's not very expensive, it seems to be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver. It's okay, I just fell down. Anyway, I've worn it for more than a year, so I'm not interested anymore. Let's go back and play with a better look."

The Ye family and the other two were so excited that they heard it. The things worth tens of thousands of taels were not very expensive? How rich is the Hong family?

Ye's eyes were red slightly, and she swore that no matter whether it was the Bai family or the Hong family, she would sooner or later make them her belongings!

Hong asked the servant to sweep the things and said generously: "Although it is broken, it is still a good thing after all. Let the butler take the fragments and pearls and gems outside to sell them. The silver you get will rush into the public center! These are worth more than 10,000 taels, and they can take a while."

Ye's heart twitched again, and once again saddened the Ye family's weakness in money.

At this time, a servant from the doorman came to report: "A man has come from the palace..."
