"Don't talk." Su Bai was naturally happy and relieved to hear the news that Kong Chen was killed.

But Xu Tianyi was too weak now, and it would take more than a few words to talk about this matter. Su Bai told him not to think about anything, close his eyes and rest.

Su Bai came to the side room and scooped water from the water tank into the bucket.

"Madam, what are you doing?" Zi Yan asked.

Zi Yan had just finished a blood transfusion. Although the amount of blood transfused was not large, Su Bai couldn't bear to use her: "You should take a rest too."

"It's okay," Zi Yan took the scoop from Su Bai's water and said, "It's too late, Madam, go to bed. I'll be fine in a moment."

In this way, the master and servant pushed and shoved each other, and finally they cleaned up the bloodstains in the house, the yard, outside the back door and nearby together before returning to the house.

Su Bai let Zi Yan sleep on the same bed with him.

It was already three o'clock and both of them were no longer sleepy, so they started talking about the second wife.

Zi Yan gave Su Bai an idea that if he wanted to control the second wife, he could only start with the second young lady.

This coincided with Su Bai's idea, but Su Bai felt that doing so was a bit despicable and he couldn't make up his mind. It was only after Zi Yan's words that he made up his mind.

Early in the morning, before seven o'clock, the second wife asked the second young lady to come and inform Su Bai to go to her east backyard.

"I'm not feeling well today and can't go. Let Zi Yan go." Su Bai hasn't gotten up yet.

"Ah, she goes...how can it be possible?"

"Do you know what your mother asked me to do?" Su Bai asked.

Kong Yun shook his head.

Su Bai told the second wife frankly that he wanted to hand over the management of the Kong Mansion to the second wife.

So it’s okay to let Zi Yan go, as long as she can get the job done.

Zi Yan went to find the accountant, Mr. Sun, and asked the second wife to sort out the accounts first. This would take three or two days. Once she took over the accounts, the Kong family would also take over.

"Oh..." Kong Yun thought.

"What are you thinking? Do you think your mother is better than me in taking over the Confucius Mansion?"

"Good and bad."

"It's okay, just tell me."

Kong Yun felt that Su Bai had the right to be the head of the Kong family, and did not support her mother to be the head of the family.

But like the eldest daughter Kong Man, she also thought that Su Bai was too wasteful. She had transferred so much property to the second master before, and yesterday she wanted to divide the income, which was not much to begin with, in half to each room. If she continued like this, no one knew what she would do next.

The only right thing to do was to take back the Kong family’s land, but they were unable to do so completely.

Su Bai smiled: "Do you think your sister-in-law is useless?"

Kong Yun told Su Bai that she and her sister Kong Man both thought that their eldest sister-in-law was a scholar, and not just any ordinary scholar, but was smart, pretty, and knowledgeable. She appeared quiet on the surface, but secretly dared to think and act, and was worthy of being the head of the Kong family.

But Su Bai's actions made them very confused. If no one stopped him and he continued like this, the Kong family's property would eventually fall into the hands of the other concubines.

"If it falls into their hands, won't you and Kong Man also have a share? This should be a good thing for both of you."

After hearing this, Kong Yun was speechless.

This is also the thing that Su Bai doesn't understand the most about their opposition to dividends, as they can obviously benefit from it.

"My sister and I are doing this for the baby in your belly," Kong Yun said, pointing at Su Bai's belly.

"Have you heard that someone in the mansion will not let me give birth to this baby in my belly, and may even do something bad to me?"

Unexpectedly, the second young lady was not surprised at all after hearing this. She actually answered the question irrelevantly by saying that before the child was born, the property belonged to the eldest sister-in-law.

"What if the baby in my belly can't be born in the end?" Su Bai suddenly had an idea and planned to test Kong Yun further: "A few days ago, I found a doctor to take my pulse, and he said that this child..."

The meaning has been made clear, so I'll stop here and stare at Kong Yun to see what she has to say.

What Su Bai didn't expect was that Kong Yun actually said, "Whether you have children or not, all the Kong family's property is yours!"

Isn't this quite right?

According to the feudal concepts of that era, a wife's honor lies in her husband and a mother's status lies in her sons. If a woman loses her husband and has no children, she is basically an outsider in the extended family and her status is not much better than that of a servant.

Kong Yun actually said that even if there was no child, the property would still belong to Su Bai. Isn't this weird?

Su Bai asked again: "Does Kong Man think so too?"

Kong Yun nodded.

No, that's too abnormal.

These two ladies are either mentally ill or they are hiding something from me!

It is true that Kong Yun is naive, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with her brain.

As for Kong Man, he is no longer naive.

It was not possible to get anything out of Kong Yun for the time being, so Su Bai hurried to implement the next plan.

She and Kong Yun talked about Liu Yiyan.

Su Bai lied that he had a headache, which was an old ailment and no medicine worked.

The last time she was at Liu Yiyan's place, she had this problem again because of anxiety and fear. Unexpectedly, Liu Yiyan gave her a pill and she recovered immediately.

When I was going down the mountain, I wanted to ask Liu Yiyan for some to bring back, but I forgot because I was in a hurry to go home.

Kong Yun immediately said, "Then let Tietou go up the mountain and bring some back!"

Su Bai shook her head. She had looked for Tietou several times. Liu Yiyan asked Tietou to pass on a message that unless Su Bai went up the mountain to get it herself, he would not give her a single pill.

"What do you think of this Liu Yiyan bastard? I saved his life, but he wouldn't even give me a single pill. Why did he ask me to go up the mountain? He must have bad intentions. Besides, I can't get away from the current situation at the Kong Mansion!"

"That's right!" Having just commented on Kong Yun's innocence, this innocence was revealed: "I'll go up the mountain once, I don't believe he won't give it to me!"

Su Bai was secretly proud. The pit had just been dug and you jumped in.

She asked Kong Yun calmly, "Have you been wanting to go up the mountain and have some fun for a few days?"

Kong Yun did not deny that she felt bored staying in the mansion these days, especially the quarrel yesterday, which made her even more upset.

"Does Kong Man also want to go up the mountain with you again?"

Kong Yun shook his head. Kong Man probably wouldn't go, at least not for the time being. She said after she came back last time that she went up the mountain just for the sake of novelty, and once would be enough.

"Forget it, your mother won't let you go up the mountain."

"I won't tell her!"

Su Bai thought to himself, silly girl, you are really awesome, how could I not like you?

However, she also believed that with the Second Young Lady's personality, she really wanted to go up the mountain and live a free life for a few days.

Especially after the second wife returned safely, there was no longer any cloud in her heart. She should have more fun going up the mountain this time than the last time.

Kong Yun said she would go as soon as she said she would go out through the back door directly and would not ask Tietou to lead her. She could find Wohu Mountain by herself.

Going out the back door is closer to the north gate, and just a few miles away you will reach Beishan.

After the second lady said this, Su Bai immediately made a judgment that Crouching Tiger Mountain was in the North Mountain.
