In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

The Queen Mother handed the deeds of the 15 shops to Bai Lu, and said with a calm smile: "All the deeds of these shops are given to you. If Bai Yansong asks me later whether I helped you to smooth the relationship, I will say yes."

"It's just... I've given you the things. Whether you forgive Bai Yansong or not is another matter."

Bai Lu couldn't help laughing when she heard this. "There must be compensation, otherwise, he would think that he would not have to pay the price for his wrongdoings."

"...But just because we accepted it doesn't mean we will forgive Bai Yansong!"

At the beginning, what the Queen Mother said to Bai Yansong was to ask whether Bai Lu and Bai Lu's children could forgive Bai Yansong. She did not mean that Bai Lu and Bai Lu's children would definitely forgive Bai Yansong if they were accepted. There must be a difference between the two.

The reason why the things were not put away in the imperial study before was because the empress, the crown prince, several princes, and the emperor were all there, and they might speak up for Bai Yansong at this time.

Bai Lu was too lazy to pay attention to him.

She had to quickly close the shops for her brothers.

I don't want to covet the Bai family's money, but my brothers... want to share the Bai family's money.

They are descendants of the Bai family, why shouldn’t they get a share of the money?

Otherwise, she was really afraid that the Bai family's money and shops would be secretly transferred away by Xie, Haitang, and that Princess Ruyu.

The Queen Mother nodded, thinking that what Bai Lu said made a lot of sense.

But after carefully counting the deeds of these shops, he frowned and felt a little strange: "...Hey, why are there deeds for 15 shops instead of 14?"

"Don't you have seven daughters in total?"

"Could it be that... the extra one is for you?"

She thought about it, then took out the shop deeds and looked at them with Bai Lu.

Bai Lu glanced at the shops and smiled sarcastically: "...Empress Dowager, do you think this might be for me?"

"He could only give the deed of this last shop to July. He could only be partial and give July an extra one."

"..."

(ー_ー)!!

The Queen Mother felt that what Bai Lu said made sense, because the deed to the last shop was indeed... under July's name.

The Queen Mother's expression gradually turned ugly.

I didn’t expect that even at this point, Bai Yansong would still have to feed them a big mouthful of “shit”.

The Queen Mother quickly comforted Bai Lu: "Forget it, forget it, don't worry about these things, he is partial to one side... Anyway, now you have gained real benefits. Now, these dozen shops are in the hands of our Bai family. Chu Yao will definitely be happy when he knows about it."

Bai Lu nodded.

The Bai family’s shop must be in the hands of the Bai brothers and sisters.

Someone in the Empress Dowager's palace quickly passed the news to Bai Chuyao.

Bai Chuyao heaved a sigh of relief after receiving the news.

He said to the young eunuch in the Queen Mother's palace with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, young eunuch. Here, I'll give you this silver to drink tea."

The young eunuch received a string of money directly, which was enough for one or two taels of silver.

Seeing the silver, the young eunuch was delighted and quickly said to Bai Chuyao: "Thank you, young master! Thank you, young master!!"

"Well, go back and tell the Queen Mother and Marquis Anguo about my wishes."

"okay!"

The young eunuch left without hesitation.

"..."

Bai Chuyao also asked several of his family servants to see the young eunuch off.

After delivering the message, Bai Chuyao sat in the study, quietly waiting for someone to arrive.

Not long after, he heard a commotion outside, and the servants' consoling voices: "Aunt Haitang, Madam Xie, you can't come here, this is the eldest master's study!"

"...Don't come in casually. If the eldest master sees you entering his study casually, he will probably be angry!"

"Get out of here! You are all slaves. Why do you want to stop me?!"

"Hurry up and get your eldest son out!"

"We want to know! Where did your eldest son instigate the master to send the family's dozen most profitable shops?!"

"How come the master won't tell us no matter how we ask?!"

"...Get out of here, you dog slave! You're just taking advantage of your master!"

Listening to the noise outside, Bai Chuyao sneered.

At this time, the door was pushed open.

Everyone's figures came into Bai Chuyao's sight.

"..."

When several attendants saw Bai Chuyao giving them a look, they all retreated.

Outside, Xie and Haitang rushed in.

Bai Chuyao glanced at Xie, who looked haggard and thinner recently, while Haitang's face looked mottled and swollen.

I guess she was seriously poisoned, but her veil covered the lower half of her terrifying face, leaving only the upper half, which made it not so scary.

Bai Chuyao frowned slightly, then said to the two of them with a relaxed look, "...Why are you two here again?"

Before, Bai Lu taught them a lesson, so they were almost dragged away and killed. Xie and Haitang had restrained themselves a lot, but today they came here and acted up again.

Bai Chuyao looked at them and saw Xie said coldly and viciously: "Young Master, I don't know what you did and what you said to our master. The master actually took away all the business deeds! There are so many deeds, roughly calculated! The value is 20 taels of silver, and these 20 taels of silver suddenly disappeared."

"Tell me! What exactly is going on?!"

Bai Chuyao was stunned: "...My father took the shop deed, what does it have to do with me?"

He glanced at Xie and Haitang and said, "The deeds of these shops are all kept by him. Should I urge him to take them?"

"You know, I asked him to give the deeds of those shops to the second and third sons before, but he refused to give them any. How could he be easily persuaded by me?"

"???"

"!!!"

After hearing this, Xie and Haitang were speechless for a moment.

Yes, if Bai Chuyao instigated it, how could Bai Yansong just take it out casually? !

Bai Yansong and Bai Chuyao's relationship is not as good as it used to be.

Bai Chuyao had urged Bai Yansong to get the deed for the shop before. If he could succeed, he would have done it long ago. Why did he wait until today?

Therefore, the deeds of these shops should not have been instigated by Bai Chuyao.

So what is going on?
