The whole family wears it! Roll it up together! The envy of all the rich in Beijing
Chapter 171: Things Happen One After Another
Come to the Bai family’s old house to announce a death?
Who died?
Bai Jintong and Wanwan went to the front yard together.
Before entering the main hall, I saw from afar the old housekeeper of the Bai family's old house, Old Bai, kneeling in the middle of the room in mourning, saying something with tears and snot.
As she stepped one foot over the threshold, the system suddenly rang again.
"Ding! Expose the murderer and get a reward!"
Bai Jintong stopped because of the system's task.
As his thoughts turned, his eyes fixed on the housekeeper of the Bai family's old house.
Old Butler Bai discovered that someone was coming after him, so he knelt down and turned halfway to see Bai Jintong, and kowtowed to him.
"This old slave has met the second young lady!"
"No gift."
Bai Jintong walked into the room and sat down next to her grandmother, and then Butler Bai continued talking.
"There is no hostess in the mansion now, please ask the lady to come back and take charge!"
As Butler Lao Bai spoke, he kowtowed to the lady again.
Bai Jintong understood who died.
It was really unexpected. How could the second wife die suddenly? Or was she killed intentionally?
Otherwise the system would not allow her to reveal any murderer.
The lady looked at the butler, Old Bai, and really wished that he would die.
She didn't want to go back to the old Bai Mansion.
Seeing that the lady didn't say anything, Butler Lao Bai continued crying and talking.
"After the Second Madam passed away, the Second Master was so sad that he couldn't get up and fell ill.
The oldest girl in the mansion, the third girl, is not even of age yet and is not able to take care of the things. The fourth and fifth girls have fainted from crying several times. They can't let two concubines be in charge of the family, as this would make them a laughing stock to outsiders.
There is really no one to take charge of the household chores, so please have mercy, Madam!
It was the Second Master who asked me to come and invite the Madam!"
As Butler Lao Bai spoke, he kowtowed again.
Bai Jintong almost vomited after listening to the moral blackmail of Butler Bai.
And according to the tasks issued by the system, even if Butler Lao Bai is not the murderer, he is an accomplice. Now he is crying wolf and even morally blackmailing his grandmother?
"Grandma is old and was poisoned before. She has finally recovered and can't stand the hard work."
Butler Lao Bai didn't expect that the second girl would directly refuse on behalf of the lady.
He also mentioned the previous poisoning incident, which made me feel a little uneasy.
The fact that the Madam was poisoned might not be known to all the maids and servants, but the master and the madam’s confidants knew about it.
Cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
When the old lady heard that her granddaughter had directly refused, she knew that she was worried about her and didn't want her to suffer in the old house or even be plotted against. She was so happy.
Seeing that his little granddaughter wanted to say more, he held her little hand and shook it.
Bai Jintong knew that her grandmother didn't want her to speak anymore, so she shut up.
The lady spoke before Butler Old Bai spoke.
“Death is the greatest thing, I am going back to see my second son’s wife off.
As for the household affairs of the old house, it would be better to let the two concubines and the girls in the mansion take care of it together.
Now that I no longer live in the old house, I still have to take medicine every day."
The lady was not lying. Her granddaughter asked her to soak her feet every day, and she added some mugwort and other medicinal herbs to the water.
“I am willing but unable to take care of the household expenses.
The household is run by the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter. They never let me get involved, for fear that I would get tired.
The second son is the most filial, and I guess he doesn’t want to tire my old bones out with this.
If his two concubines and the girls in the mansion don't know how to do something, I can ask the nanny to teach them.
The third and fourth girls have also reached the age where they should start learning.
Now that their mother is gone, they should stand up for themselves.”
Everyone can flatter and use moral blackmail.
She had already said what she loved her granddaughter so much, and the lady would not agree to slap her granddaughter in the face.
Besides, she didn't want to go.
If you go there, will you use your own money to fill the holes in the old house?
You really think she is a fool.
Butler Lao Bai's face turned very interesting after hearing what the old lady said, and he didn't dare to ask the old lady to go to the old house to take charge of the household affairs.
Otherwise, not only would the second master be accused of being unfilial, but he would also directly offend the people in the first house.
He looked at the Madam's obviously rosy complexion and knew that the people in the first house took good care of her and were definitely unwilling to let her go back to the old house.
The lady did not give Butler Bai another chance to speak.
"I guess the old house is busy now, so they won't keep you.
I have asked the servant to call the Madam back. When she comes back, I will go with her to take a look.
You can go back first."
"Yes!
"I'm leaving now!"
Butler Lao Bai didn't expect that the old lady would not give any face to the second wife at all. Even after the second wife died, she would not go back.
I have to go back and discuss this with the master.
As soon as Butler Lao Bai left, Bai Jintong called Xuanrui.
"Go to the Bai Mansion and keep an eye on the butler to see who he talks to and what he does.
Come back and report if there is any situation."
"No problem Master!"
Xuan Rui flew out suddenly.
As soon as it took off, it saw Shengsheng's father and two other people in a carriage behind them, as if they were heading towards home.
However, thinking that I had a mission to do, I didn't go down to see what was going on.
"Why let Xuan Rui go? I know your grandmother. She won't allow them to go."
When the lady saw Xuanrui flying away, she was afraid that it would be discovered and beaten.
"It's always better to be on guard. They poisoned you before, how dare they let you go back now?"
As for the fact that Liu was murdered, no mention was made of it.
"Miss, the concierge has sent a message that Prince Qi has come to the mansion and wants to see you."
"Why did Prince Qi come to see you now?"
The lady thought that Prince Qi might have taken a fancy to her granddaughter.
But this behavior is inappropriate as my granddaughter is still young.
"It's probably related to Shengsheng.
Grandma, I'll go check out the front. You must wait for mom to come back. We will accompany you to the old house. Don't go by yourself."
Both her parents are not at home now. When Prince Qi came, he did not look for her grandmother but for this little girl. It must be related to Princess Mingzhu.
"Okay, grandma knows, you can get busy now."
There are many things that the old lady doesn’t understand, but she won’t ask. If something happens, she may not be able to help. All she can do is not to cause trouble for her descendants.
"Miss, why did Prince Qi come to see you now?"
Wanwan felt that Prince Qi was being a bit presumptuous.
There is a lady at home, so how can it not be the girl's turn to receive Prince Qi?
Even if he is a prince, he is still a foreigner!
"He must be here to pick up that person."
Bai Jintong didn't say who that person was, but Wanwan understood and suddenly realized it.
“Miss Bai, I’m here to pick up Feng Mingzhu.
Thank you so much for your time."
Nan Mingyu spoke directly to Bai Jintong when he saw her.
"You're welcome. It's an honor to work for the country."
Nan Mingyu didn't expect that the little tutor could be so good at speaking.
What he didn't know was that because of Feng Mingzhu, Bai Jintong received a lot of rewards and also completed a mission, although the mission has not been completed yet.
But taking her away now would speed up the progress of the mission and also get rid of the "big bomb".
She was happy.
When he is happy, he will not hesitate to say a few nice words.
The situation was urgent. Nan Mingyu saw Feng Mingzhu get on the carriage, say goodbye to her little tutor and leave.
Hong Tianqiao came back at this time.
