"Hurry up, Third Aunt, you are the elder," Su Bai helped the Third Aunt up, saying that even if he helped, it was only to ensure that everyone had food to eat. Now the whole mansion might know that he withdrew more than 2000 yuan from the account before the division of the family, but if this 2000 yuan was used to maintain the food and clothing expenses of each room in the Kong Mansion, how long could it last?

If I want to maintain my previous living standard, these 2000 yuan won't even last me a year.

Let's wait and see how the situation develops. The Fourth Concubine has just started renovating Kong Zhengliang's yard. It may take at least ten days or half a month to finish. Let's wait and see after the Fourth Concubine makes a final decision.

The Sixth Concubine said to the Third Concubine, they can't just sit there and wait for the Eldest Young Lady to give them alms, they should each find a way out. After all, this matter is to blame on Master Kong. If he had distributed some of the Kong family's property to each family before he died, it wouldn't have to be much, and they could make a living by collecting rent, but he didn't do that.

The third concubine thought that it was right for Mr. Kong to hand over the property to Su Bai, but his mistake was that he did not expect that his two brothers were so inhumane.

"Those who should remarry should remarry. The master didn't even give us a guarantee of living before he died, so why should we remain faithful to him?" The Sixth Concubine turned to criticize the Third Concubine: "Third sister is still far-sighted. She left a way out for herself more than 20 years ago. Now, she has both a man and a son."

"Sixth Aunt, please be more polite, okay?" Su Bai stopped the Sixth Aunt: "It's been so many years since this happened, don't mention it again!"

"If you want to remarry, do it quickly!" The third concubine said to the sixth concubine unhappily.

The Sixth Concubine was so unscrupulous that she even said that even if she remarried, she would still be a member of the Kong family before that. The Kong family was her maternal family. The Kong family had no money now, but they still had land, so they had to give her dozens of acres of land as a dowry.

"Shameless!" the third concubine scolded her.

Su Bai stopped the two from quarreling and told them to go back and inform the ladies in each room that before the Fourth Concubine officially moved out of the Confucius Mansion, everyone should try not to come to the backyard unless it was something extremely important, so as to avoid being discovered by the Fourth Concubine and causing any more trouble.

When Su Bai sent the two to the back door, the Sixth Aunt suddenly noticed something was wrong with Su Bai and exclaimed, "Why is your stomach deflated?"

Damn.

Before Su Bai and the Kong family separated completely, she would put on the leather bellyband filled with cotton and wool that the second concubine had customized for her every morning, making her look like she was pregnant.

At that time, I was wearing the thinnest of the three custom-made leather bellybands. According to the date, I should have worn the medium-thick leather bellyband in a few days, and the thickest one one or two months before delivery.

After the family separated and returned to the backyard, Su Bai was busy every day. In addition, few people came to the backyard, so he never wore that bellyband again.

Unexpectedly, I was discovered by the Sixth Aunt today.

"Yes, is it?" Su Bai touched his belly: "It's not deflated, right?"

The third concubine reached out to touch Su Bai's belly, but Su Bai took a step back to avoid her.

"You...are you having a miscarriage?" the third concubine suddenly asked.

The Sixth Concubine is young, so maybe she could fool the man by making up a lie, but it would not be so easy to fool the Third Concubine.

"Uh... Third Aunt is right." Su Bai had no choice but to continue speaking along the lines of Third Aunt.

In fact, Su Bai had already thought about using the lie of abortion to end her fake pregnancy, but she had not yet decided when and under what circumstances to release the news. Today, she was discovered by the Sixth Concubine and then exposed by the Third Concubine, so she had no choice but to do it today.

"Oh my God, what should I do?" The third concubine was about to cry.

Su Bai understood why she was so disappointed.

As long as the baby in her belly is gone, even if the Fourth Madam moves out of the Kong Mansion, Su Bai will not be qualified to take charge of the Kong family again.

"Third sister, why are you crying? I think it's a good thing that the child is gone. Otherwise, the child would be born without a father, how pitiful!" said the Sixth Aunt.

The Third Aunt felt sorry for the loss of her child. Apart from that, as Su Bai had just thought of, it was no longer reasonable for her to be in charge of the Kong Mansion.

The Sixth Concubine immediately refuted her: "Now the Kong Mansion only has this courtyard that can't make money. Do you think Su Bai wants to take care of this mess? She is just pitying this family!"

After the Sixth Aunt said this, the Third Aunt remained silent.

Su Bai told the two that it was enough for them to know about this matter. After the Fourth Madam left the Kong Mansion, she would tell everyone the truth. As for taking charge of the Kong Mansion again, she really had no interest in it. If everyone was unwilling, she would definitely not go back.

In fact, Su Bai was just thinking that it would be a good thing if he could really take charge of the Confucius Mansion again.

In that case, his backyard and ancestral hall would become deep inside the compound, and safety would increase dramatically.

If it is really as Cheng Zifeng said, once the provincial government starts the war against Marshal Yang, the company's own production of medicines will be far from enough. With gold bars rolling in, why would they still care about feeding these idle people in the Kong Mansion?

They are not useless. At least they can help to cover up their own pharmacy intentionally or unintentionally.

After training Zi Yan and Niu Yanzi, he spent most of his time sitting in the lobby of the front yard, eating, drinking tea, doing chores, and receiving guests, just like before. The backyard was less likely to attract people's attention.

The third concubine and the sixth concubine quickly exchanged opinions with their eyes. They would listen to Su Bai on this matter and would not tell other people in the mansion for the time being.

After seeing off the two ladies, Su Bai returned to the house and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. She simply said that the child was gone so that she wouldn't have to pretend to be pregnant all the time.

Su Bai was not worried about Kong Li finding out about this matter. He didn't care whether Su Bai was pregnant or not. What he cared about was the gold bars.

He may think that it is better for Su Bai not to have children, so that he can be truly justified in helping the Fourth Madam seize the property of the Kong Mansion.

At this point, even if the illegitimate child between him and the fourth wife was known to the whole world, he would no longer care.

In any case, this illegitimate child also has the surname Kong and is the master's nephew.

The master has no son, so isn't it natural that his nephew will inherit the estate?

It is highly likely that other people will not think this way about this matter, but Kong Li does not need others' approval, he will force people to accept this reason.

Anyway, the Kong Mansion now has no property except the courtyard, and Su Bai had no intention of inheriting this property. It was perfect, then no one would make trouble with him over property issues anymore.

If you say that miscarriage is not a problem at all, that’s not the case.

The eldest and second daughters would definitely be unhappy. Without this child, they would have no reasons to be close to me.

Su Bai was not worried about this. It was better not to be close to you. Do you still expect me to beg you?

But there is one person that Su Bai still has concerns about.

He is Kong Dai.

This person is difficult to deal with.
