Chapter 971 Use your life to protect the blood of my Bai family
The old lady understood the front but not the back. She didn't understand what the three views mean, but she understood heredity. If we understand it comprehensively, it would not be difficult to understand what she meant.
She wanted to argue, but found that her words were so powerless, and she also thought of such a problem. She had also explored it herself.
Why can the children born by the concubine become generals, but the two she gave birth to are more and more unsatisfied?
But she still felt that Bai Xingyan was not completely following her. For example, now, Bai Xingyan has committed a heinous crime, but she still can't bear to die with her son. But many years ago, Bai Xingyan had already killed one of his biological children.
Facing Bai Heran's words, the old lady didn't say anything. She just looked around and sat around. After a while, her eyes first fell on the Hong family and said, "The world's scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are the lowest and the least valuable. Even if your Hong family is the largest merchant in Dongqin, it still cannot change your status. Besides, the reason why the Hong family is doing business to the peak of its heights is that you have to admit that there are great contributions to this from your man."
Hong nodded, "I admit that the Duke of China did help us a lot of Hong family at the beginning, but he helped the Hong family for a fee. Every time he worked hard and helped the Hong family to establish a relationship, he would ask for corresponding remuneration from the Hong family afterwards, and the Hong family gave only a lot of rewards. If the old lady thinks that I am talking nonsense, she can arrange for someone to check the accounts now. Every remuneration that Duke Wen of China requested from the Hong family is clearly written on the books, and the Hong family will never take advantage of him."
"Who knows whether the accounts of your Hong family are true or false?" The old lady said this against her will, but she knew it clearly that the accounts of the Hong family could not be fake, and she knew that Bai Xingyan had received compensation from the Hong family. Otherwise, the Duke Wenguo Mansion would not have any money-making operations, and only rely on a few shops and a few farms. How could it have been so brilliant in the past ten years?
But she couldn't admit this, and she gritted her teeth and couldn't admit it, otherwise she would lose her momentum and the dignity of the Bai family.
"If Mrs. Bai insists on thinking this way, then I have no choice. But even if you don't mention whether Duke Wen had received compensation from the Hong family in the past, we only count the contribution of the Hong family to the Bai family for more than half a year, which is enough to satisfy Duke Wen's support. Mrs. Bai, don't forget that the world relies on the concubine's concubine's family's family to support him, there is probably no other place except Duke Wen's house. Why don't you calculate how much money the Duke Wen's house has spent in the past six months? Even your food and clothing cost is the money you get from the Hong family. It's not enough to pay for your food and drink, but you have to support your son to take a new concubine. The Bai family is really shameful."
Hong said this very seriously, making the old lady's face turn red and white. She wanted to scold her several times, but she was retorted by Hong's tone. Hong's tone was not like Lin's, and she was weak and unconfident. Hong's confidence was enough. The tone that made her unhappy was immediately raised, which scared the old lady so much that she didn't dare to say anything.
Finally, the old lady's silence represents surrender and no longer argues with Hongshi.
But she didn't argue with Hongshi, but it didn't mean she didn't argue with others. After Hongshi ignored her, she began to attack Linshi. She asked Linshi: "What about you? You are unwilling to share the same joys and sorrows with your man now. What did you think when you, an actor, entered the gate of our Duke Wen's Mansion? The actor turned over and became the concubine of a generation of marquis, which not only raised your worth, but also raised your father's worth. Your Lin family did not make any contribution to the Duke's Mansion. Now, what are you facing backing down? What are you facing not to die with your man?"
Lin was helpless, and she really had no reason to retreat. The Lin family really took advantage of Duke Wen's mansion.
So she nodded and said, "I won't retreat. I'm willing to accompany him to die. But I beg Mrs. Bai, you will love your grandchildren. They are still children. Why should they die? Your son was born, and your grandchildren were born by your son. You can accumulate some virtue, don't be confused for a while, and pay the whole family's life."
The old lady was so angry at Lin's words, but she was thinking, yes, there was also a grandson, the grandson was the root of the Bai family! Xingyan slept with the imperial concubine, and this must be a dead end. She could not save her son's life, but her grandson must be protected.
"A Ran." She was going to pull Bai He Ran's hand, but unfortunately she was thrown away as soon as she got it on. Bai He Ran's cold look made her feel cold all over her body just by looking at it, just like she never knew this girl, so far away.
"A Ran." The old lady retracted her hand and said pleaded, "I don't ask you to protect your father, I just ask you to protect Xuan'er. Don't you like him too? Then you can protect him. That's the root of our Bai family. The Bai family cannot break the roots."
Bai Heran turned to look at her and asked calmly: "Where is Zhenzhen and Yan Yu? They are also juniors of the Bai family, are they safeguarded?"
"How can you have that great ability to protect so many people?" The old lady was self-aware this time, so she told Bai Heran, "Press all the chips on Xuan'er. Even if you can save several people, it is still risky. It's better to concentrate the target and save only one, so that the risk can be reduced. If you give everyone's hopes, Xuan'er will definitely be able to protect. Aran, do you understand what my grandmother said?"
Bai Heran felt disgusted. It was really impossible to see a person clearly if nothing happened. In the past, she only thought that this grandmother was kind-hearted, wise, and clear, treating the original owner or her. She thought of filial piety to this elder, which was to repay the friendship between grandparents and grandchildren for the original owner, and also to be considered as her own grandmother, and to feel the family affection that she had never felt in two lives.
But now it seems that she is too naive and everything is her wishful thinking.
If you exchange the lives of a few children for one child's life, because that child is a boy, he should survive. Even if Bai Haoxuan is her beloved younger brother, she will never be able to do such a thing.
Bai Heran is difficult to understand. As a grandmother, how could this old lady think of giving the lives of other granddaughters to one grandson? Is it so great that the difference between men and women is so big in her heart? The superiority of men and women is so deep-rooted in her concept?
"If Zhenzhen and Yan Yu's lives are not enough, I need to add my life to save Xuan'er?" She asked the old lady again unwillingly, "If so, how do you choose?"
"I..." The old lady was stunned for a moment and said quickly, "Then you can't let the Bai family die? A Ran, Haoxuan is your favorite younger brother. You can't bear to die, right?"
Bai Heran smiled, really laughed, and tears came out of her eyes.
To let her take the initiative to sacrifice her life to change others to live, it is the first time in her two lives that she heard such a funny thing. The Bai family in her previous life was so dirty, and no one dared to say such words to her. What happened to her in this life? Is she too kind and looks too easy to bully? How could anyone say such words casually?
When Hong heard this, she first responded: "Mrs. Bai, what are you saying? Xuan'er is my child. I love him the most, but even I will never let A Ran exchange his life. Not to mention A Ran, even Zhen Zhen and Yan Yu are not good! No one can deprive others of the right to survive for their own life, otherwise even if he survives, he will bear a heavy burden for life. Xuan'er doesn't want such a life, and we would rather not live in such a way of living."
"Don't be fooled!" The old lady gritted her teeth and scolded Hong, "Woman's opinion! Is he living for himself? He lives for the entire family, and he is continuing the incense for the Bai family! What's the burden? A man, who can still not have a burden?"
"That's not possible." Hongshi insisted very much, "I understand my son, and I am confident in my upbringing. Maybe if it were your son Bai Xingyan, he would definitely choose to let himself live, but my Xuan'er would never agree."
"Are you blaming your son for not being as good as you?" The old lady's eyes revealed a murderous intent, "Hong Piaopiao, if I had known today, I should have beaten you with one blow. Even if Chunyu Lan stopped you, I should have beaten you to death!"
"Yes, you originally wanted to kill me." Hong said angrily, "My life was saved by Sister Chunyu. Even if I think of my kindness, I will only think of Sister Chunyu's kindness alone. Old lady, you only protect your son from beginning to end. Women don't count in your eyes. You don't care whether we are dead or alive. But don't forget that you are also a woman."
Lin nodded along the side, Tan nodded, and Guan nodded.
For a moment, the old lady felt that she had been betrayed by everyone, and none of the people here listened to her.
"Old lady." Bai Heran said leisurely, "Even if I protect Xuan'er, it is definitely not because he is the only root of the Bai family, but because he is the younger brother who is close to me. In fact, the Bai family has more than Xuan'er, and Feng'er is also the root of the Bai family, but you are not willing to admit it. You always think that the third uncle is a concubine's son and Feng'er is born by the concubine's son, so he has no status. But don't forget that for the Bai family, for the grandfather, you are no different from the concubine's aunt and grandmother back then. They are just tools for the Bai family to prolong their offspring. Who is more noble than who?"
She picked up the teacup on the table again, and this time the tea was completely cold.
"Uncle San is a general. If you make achievements, there is at least 70% hope that their family can survive. So the old lady is very likely to be Feng'er, the last thing left in the Bai family is Feng'er. When Feng'er becomes the only bloodline in the world, I will remind him to straighten his grandmother, at least he must be his grandfather's wife, or do it more simply, let you go out of the court and straighten your concubine. This is the operation that Bai'er Lang is best at. Old lady, do you think so?"
