Chapter 319: My Bai Family Doesn’t Have Any Second Young Mistress
Bai Yilang was supported by Bai Chi. His mouth tasted of blood, his eyes widened, and he shouted angrily, "Bai Xun, you have no respect for your elders! You are not worthy of being the head of the family!"
Bai Xun looked at him coldly: "If you want others' respect, you should at least consider whether your own moral character is worthy of it, right?"
Bai Yilang raised his hand and pointed at him, his chest heaving violently: "You...you..."
Bai Xun said calmly, "If elders lack virtue, their descendants will suffer. If you want to leave a way out for your descendants, I advise you to be less verbal."
This is a clear threat.
Bai Chi was anxious and apprehensive, and hurriedly said, "Dad, please stop talking! Someone, help the old man get into the carriage. Let's get back to the county town and the clinic."
Bai Xun said, "Uncle, I've had a list of what your family owes the old house. Pay it all back within seven days, or the money will be deducted from all the other branches until it's all paid off."
The people from the side branches looked at each other, all with bitter expressions on their faces.
When Bai Xun took office, he dismissed all their lucrative positions with a single stroke of his pen, and reduced their monthly salaries to just 30% of their original amount. Now they were supposed to help pay off other people's debts? How could this be allowed?
"Old man, it's only natural that you pay back the money you owe!"
"Yeah, how can we use our money to pay your debts?"
"Pay back the money quickly!"
Bai Yilang and Bai Chi were stopped by people from the side branches. They were very emotional and were determined not to give up until they helped Bai Xun get his debt back.
Seeing this, Bai Yilang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "You ungrateful wolves! You are a bunch of ungrateful wolves!"
"What are you talking about? We have never taken advantage of your family!"
"That's right! Your reputation as a stingy person is well-known to everyone in An County. Who can take advantage of you?"
"It's you, old bastard, who instigated this thankless task today!"
"Pay back the money now! Otherwise, we will block your door day and night without the head of the family taking action!"
Bo Chi had no choice but to put on a smile and say, "I will return it! I will definitely return it! Please let me take my father to the clinic first."
Bai Yishui said: "Okay, saving people is the most important thing."
Seeing that the old patriarch had spoken, everyone gave up and let Bai Yilang and Bai Chi leave.
Jiang Yuanhai squeezed Jiang Wenjie's arm firmly and whispered, "I told you before that if Bai Xun becomes the head of the Bai family, no matter what happens, you must stand on Bai Xun's side. Is that true?"
Jiang Wenjie smiled and said, "Of course he's right. Besides, Bai Xun's life is so precious. If I get closer to him, my Jiang family will also prosper and prosper."
Jiang Wenjie had long wanted to come to Baijiazhai to congratulate Bai Xun on becoming the head of the Bai family, but Bai Xun sent a message saying that the time was not right.
When the time comes, he will send someone to invite him and everyone in the Chamber of Commerce.
Early this morning, Sun Cheng, a subordinate of Bai Xun, came over and said that the head of the Bai family invited everyone in the Chamber of Commerce to come for a gathering.
When we got there, we saw a great show.
It seems that Bai Xun had already anticipated that the side branches would cause trouble, and specially invited them to be witnesses.
He used one trick after another, luring them with benefits and intimidating them with power. The selfish rabble of the side branches who only cared about their own interests were no match for him.
"Please come in, everyone. Tea and snacks are ready. Let's sit down and chat slowly." Bai Xun said with a smile.
"Yes, President Jiang, Great Wizard, please come in!" Bai Yishui greeted with a smile.
Jiang Yuanhai agreed with a smile.
The Great Wizard said, "I have said everything I need to say. I will not join in the fun."
After saying this, he left with his entourage.
Jiang Wenjie glanced at Han Bailing out of the corner of his eye. With such a big incident happening, why didn't Nanchun come out? Why did she come out instead?
"Ah Fu, why haven't I seen your Second Young Madam?"
Ah Fu frowned, hesitating to speak, and finally said, "You should ask the head of the family yourself!"
Jiang Wenjie's doubts grew even stronger. He took two quick steps and came to Bai Xun's side, whispering in her ear, "Where's the Second Young Madam? Such a big thing happened, why hasn't she come out?"
Bai Xun paused for a moment and said, "He's not in Baijiazhai."
"Oh, you went to Yangcheng? I heard from Jin Zirui that the second young lady's business is booming in Yangcheng." Jiang Wenjie said with a smile.
Bai Xun didn't say anything, just smiled.
Everyone entered the house and just sat down, and the tea was not served yet.
Bai Yishui said, "Bai Ling, come here."
Han Bailing looked at Bai Xun, and her expression showed no emotion.
"Everyone, from now on, some of the Bai family's shops in He'an County will be managed by Bailing. She is young and has not experienced much. If she does anything inappropriate, I hope you will forgive her!" Bai Yishui said with a smile.
Everyone was nervous, but on the surface they all agreed, "Of course, of course."
The legal wife didn't show up, yet the old master praised the concubine so highly in front of everyone. Could it be that the Bai family wanted to divorce the male wife?
Han Bailing's heart tightened, and he smiled awkwardly and said, "I only know the basics, unlike the Patriarch and the Second Young Mistress, who are capable of great things. I still have a lot to learn from you all."
Bai Yishui took a sip of tea and said slowly, "There is no second young lady in my Bai family anymore."
Everyone looked at each other in surprise when they heard this.
Jiang Yuanhai asked, "What does the old patriarch mean by this?"
"Nanchun left without saying goodbye and has nothing to do with my Bai family anymore," said Bai Yishui.
Jiang Wenjie and Jin Zirui looked at Bai Xun at the same time, only to see that he had a gloomy face and was silent.
The two looked at each other and understood that if Bai Xun could successfully become the head of this family, Nanchun's matter would probably be the price he had to pay.
Alas, the old patriarch could not tolerate the fact that the head of the Bai family had a male wife.
Everyone could see that Bai Xun was unhappy, so they all drank their tea in silence.
Bai Yishui was a little surprised. Logically, these people should have agreed with him. They said it was unbecoming for the head of the Bai family to have a male wife, and that this male wife had left well.
But these people said nothing, leaving him alone on the stage to perform.
The atmosphere was very awkward for a moment.
Jiang Yuanhai coughed lightly, looked at Bai Xun and asked, "Master Bai, you said before that you wanted to rent land to grow crops. Is this matter..."
"Well, I have already drafted the contract for this matter. Ah Fu will bring the contract over for you to see. You can go back and take a good look at the contract. If you are interested, you can come to me." Bai Xun said.
Everyone took the contract and took a quick look at it.
The money earned from renting out the land is naturally not as much as what you can earn from growing it yourself, but the advantage is that you don't have to worry about it and can just sit back and collect the money.
Jiang Yuanhai said: "I don't need to look at the contract. My Jiang family can provide 100 acres."
With President Jiang taking the lead and it being the business of the Bai family, there's no way this could go wrong.
Everyone agreed, you have 20 acres, he has 30 acres...
Soon the matter was settled.
