Xiao Ye lives in the Zhu Diyuan. Bai Huayan used to be raised by Da Ye. There was a small Qingdian courtyard next to Bai Jinghong's Fenghuayuan. Now he returned to his biological mother, but he had no separate courtyard and could only live in the same place with Xiao Ye.

By then, Bai Huayan was arguing with Xiao Ye. Shuanghuan didn't hear the exact argument clearly, and only vaguely heard the words "useless" and "waste".

As smart as Shuanghuan, how could she not guess what happened? She knew this vain and stupid and brainless young lady too well. She had been with her mistress since she was a child, giving her endless sense of superiority. Now that she is being raised by her aunt again, how can she feel balanced?

Seeing Shuanghuan coming, Bai Huayan immediately showed surprise, especially when she saw the things she was holding in Shuanghuan's hand, her joy could not be hidden. Shuanghuan smiled and asked her about her, then she told her: "This is a birthday gift from the palace before. The second wife said that no one could miss the fifth little sister and Aunt Ye's share, so she asked her to send it to the two. In addition, the second wife also said that after the birthday party, she would tell the master to let him go.

The fifth lady was still going back to Qingdaiyuan, and she was still happy at the second wife's knees." As soon as she said this, Bai Huayan was so happy that she was about to jump up. The things were good, but no matter how good it was, she could not return to the mistress of the family. She believed in her heart that only by following Ye could she have a future, be taller than other children of illegitimate children, and her future would be

Only then can you have some hope. If you continue to stay in this bamboo flute courtyard and stay by a concubine, your life will probably be over.

Happy to see Shuanghuan away, Bai Huayan rushed into the house and began to pack up her things, but ignored her biological mother who was standing behind her alone, and could not feel the helplessness and sadness of a mother losing her biological daughter again.

People originally thought that the day before the birthday party was the only one that the Queen Mother sent someone to send a birthday gift. However, they did not expect that until the end of the afternoon, the real peak moment of this day had just arrived.

Because the Hong family is here to give gifts.

When it comes to Bai Xingyan's generation of Duke Wen, the first relatives whom he first met with were the Chunyu family of Gebu. Back then, Chunyu Lan's mother was regarded as a guest of honor, and the courtesy he received was as grand as the Ye family today.

It was the Ye family later. However, the Ye family has never been able to stand out in the Duke of Wenguo's Mansion because they have a strong opponent, that is, the Hong family.

The Hong family is in business, and the Hong family is smart one by one. Whether it is their own tribe or the wife married outside, they all have exquisite business skills. Not only that, the Hong family is also very united. Whether it is a legitimate or a illegitimate, as long as they can make money for the family, there is no essential difference. Just like the Hong family, although they are just a concubine daughter and a concubine, they can be concubines of the Duke of Wenguo's Mansion. With their own beauty and ability to catch men, Duke of Wenguo Bai Xingyan willingly gave the Hong family a lot of help and support, and even helped the Hong family fight.

It has passed many levels in other state prefectures.

Although the Hong family also gave Bai Xingyan several times the reward, compared to the money they made, the return was only insignificant.

Therefore, the Hong family and the three of them were highly valued at their parents' home. In order to make face to the Hong family, to make Hong family more valued at the Duke of Wenguo's Mansion and gain a better foothold, the Hong family worked hard to carry things to the Bai family during the holidays.

Just like now, with the Ye family's birthday party tomorrow, the things from the Hong Mansion have arrived again. The old empress dowager gave gifts in the morning, which was a shock to power. The Hong family was so awesome. They carried the house with real money and silver, and carried more than twenty large boxes in one box. This is not to mention the thirty maids holding them in their hands, and fifteen servants carrying them on their shoulders.

of.

The person who came to give gifts from the Hong family was the eldest brother of the Hong family, Hong Zhenhai, the leader of the Hong family. Hong Zhenhai looked rough on the surface, and he looked big and thick. Because he was busy doing business outside in his early years, his skin was a little rough after being exposed to the wind and sun. Moreover, this man had a loud voice, and he didn't treat himself as an outsider. As soon as he entered the gate of the Bai Mansion, he shouted at the top of his voice.

——"Little sister! Brother-in-law! Zhen Zhenxuan! Come out quickly and come out quickly, see what good things my uncle has brought to you!"

The shouting came out, and the things carried in by the Hong family, all the servants of the Bai Mansion understood that the God of Wealth had arrived. So they quickly ran around and went to the courtyards to ask the masters to come out to greet them.

Not long after, all the female family members from the back house headed by the old lady arrived. Bai Xingyan, who was originally nesting in Bai Haochen's house, was also excited and walked to the front yard.

When Bai Xingyan arrived, Hong Zhenhai was sitting in the chair in the front hall, hugging Bai Haoxuan and laughing. The old lady also sat on the top with a smile. Even Bai Heran, who was used to being sarcastic, smiled and the atmosphere looked very harmonious. But this kind of Hele was only half of Hele's house. On the other side, a group of people led by Ye couldn't be happy. Especially when Bai Huayan saw Hong Zhenhai reaching out to grab her pocket, she immediately grabbed a handful of silver notes and stuffed them into Bai Haoxuan's arms. She was so angry that she was about to take it.

cigarette.

But Hong said, "Brother, what are you doing? How much can a child spend in every family? I see that your silver bills are all worth tens of thousands of taels? Just stuff them to him like this. Why don't you spend too much money?"

Hong Zhenhai waved his hand indifferently, "Women's family is just stingy. Isn't it just for the younger generation to make money? Besides, I have too much money and I have nowhere to spend it. It's not the first day you know." After that, he took out another handful and stuffed it to Bai Zhenzhen, "Take it for fun!"

Bai Zhenzhen took it with a smile, "Thank you uncle."

Hong Shi smiled and gave her elder brother a blank look, "Brother is just a spoiled child."

At this moment, Bai Xingyan walked into the front hall and watched Hong Zhenhai grab silver handfuls, his eyes turning red like a rabbit.

But he was Duke Wen after all, so he couldn't act as obvious as Bai Huayan. So he forced himself not to think about the silver notes that cost tens of thousands of taels, and quickly stepped forward and said hello: "It's the elder brother here! I'm missing the welcome!" As soon as he said this, Ye, who was sitting on the other end, was very angry. What is the elder brother? Can a concubine's family really be a relative? The rules passed down by his ancestors, but only the legitimate mother's family can be qualified to walk with her in-laws and be called a relative by her children. The concubine does not have this qualification.

of.

But the concubine of Hong's family became another. Not only did she have close contacts with the Bai family, Bai Xingyan also let her children call the uncle and aunt of Hong's family. She even asked Bai Huayan to call her grandmother before. What's this? But she couldn't care, because the Hong family was too rich, and the current Wenguo Duke's Mansion had to rely on the Hong family to help. Bai Xingyan had to go deep into the court, and the Bai family could not afford it. The Ye family had no financial resources. If there was no support from the Hong family, Wenguo would

With the support of her Ye family and Guo family, the Duke Mansion will not be able to reach today.

And she wanted the Bai family to go higher and live better, because only in this way can her son's inherited title be more substantial and more like a marquis in the future.

So Ye could only bear it and see Bai Xingyan and Hong Zhenhai greeting each other warmly. In addition to laughing, she also had to let Bai Jinghong laugh along with her. There was nothing else to do.

Hong Zhenhai looks rough, but it is not actually the case. How can a person who can be the head of the Hong family and who can control the wealthy Hong family for so many years have not had any trouble with him? How can he just look at the surface and break his inner self?

In fact, under Hong Zhenhai's rough appearance, what is hidden is a delicate, cautious and far-sighted heart.

He knew that the relationship between the Hong family and the Bai family needed a way, and the other needed money, so he did not need to lower his figure or take any airs. Anyway, they all took the needs, so it was the best attitude to be neither humble nor arrogant nor equal. Although Bai Xingyan had more of the identity of a marquis, speaking of it, the Hong family's success was not only due to Bai Xingyan, but even compared with the people who really relied on the Hong family, Duke Wen's help to them was only insignificant. The reason why he was willing to send a lot of money to Bai

The main reason for the family is that he, the concubine of Bai Xingyan, is Hong Piaopiao. In fact, the relationship between the two brothers and sisters was not very good. After all, the Hong family was a concubine, and there was still a certain gap in identity with Hong Zhenhai, who was born in the legitimate family. The reason why the relationship became closer and closer was that the Hong family got closer to the Bai family, and the brother and sister had more contact. Secondly, it was because Bai

The two children Zhenzhen and Bai Haoxuan really made Hong Zhenhai like it very much. Hong Zhenhai has been busy with the business of the Hong family throughout his life. Even though he has not left the capital as the head of the family, there are still too many things to worry about. After decades of busyness, he has delayed his lifelong affairs. Seeing that everyone is almost fifty,

Although he also raised several concubines, he had never had anything to do. Without children or daughters, it became Hong Zhenhai's biggest heart disease in his life. Now he simply regarded Bai Zhenzhen and Bai Haoxuan as palm treasures, and had been in love with her for years. He also became close to Hong Piaopiao, the concubine girl. He was afraid that the three of them would be in the Bai Mansion.

Being bullied, so a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry can be sent to the Bai Mansion with great enthusiasm.

When it comes to selfishness, Hong Zhenhai is not without selfishness. How could the head of a wealthy family in Dongqin just for the love that is expressed in his relatives? Like the Ye family, Hong Zhenhai really likes the marquis of this Duke of Wen. The difference is that the Ye family wanted to take this title for itself, but Hong Zhenhai wanted to fight for his most distressed nephew to a good future for generations to inherit, and to his niece who will eventually marry a wife.

A mother-in-law who can rely on can also leave a guarantee for her concubine's life to make a living.
