Chapter 138 Who has the final say in the three rooms?
Bai Xue cried for a while, but when she saw that no one was looking at her, she took out her handkerchief and wiped away her tears.
After finding a chair and sitting down, Bai Xue collected her emotions and tried her best to say in a pitiful and helpless tone:
"Third uncle also knows that it is not easy for my niece to get involved in the Li family's marriage. But a few days ago, someone said something bad about my niece in the town, which caused a fuss. The Li family, who was planning to get married, also put the matter aside. The matchmaker
I can’t even ask for confirmation.”
Speaking of this, Bai Xue couldn't hide the hatred in her eyes.
The reason why the Li family dislikes Bai Xue is because she cursed the third wife in the town, causing the Li family to be criticized.
But what Bai Xue didn't know was that the Li family originally wanted to break off the engagement, but knowing that the third family was prosperous, they suppressed the matter.
Seeing that everyone in the third room just listened to her calmly and no one showed any apology, Bai Xue gritted her teeth and continued:
"Yesterday, the matchmaker handed over a letter. If I can get married from the third room, I will also explain to the town what happened before. Otherwise... the Li family will break off the engagement! Third uncle, the whole village knows that I am engaged to the Li family.
Well, even many people in the town know that if my niece is annulled, there will be no way to survive!"
Bai Sanshu opened his mouth, but swallowed the words when they reached his lips.
He turned to look at his wives and daughters, and saw that they either had cold expressions or weird smiles on their faces, and they didn't know what to say.
"Third uncle, you loved me so much when I was little. How about you love me one more time? This is the only time my niece will beg you in this life, so just agree to it!"
Bai Xue couldn't wait for a reply, so she couldn't help but feel a little flustered, and she cried and begged.
"This..." Bai Sanshu hesitated a little, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was pulled by Bai Liu.
"None of the daughters in our family are engaged. How can we let our niece marry from our family when her parents are still here?" Bai Liu looked at Bai Sanshu warningly.
"But..." Bai Sanshu's soft-hearted nature showed up again, and he couldn't bear to let his niece have the engagement annulled.
"This marriage is a must-have affair. Who will pay for it? Our family has a lot of good things and a large population. We have been quarreling for days. If something is lost or someone disappears, who will be responsible?"
Bai Ling didn't want his parents to quarrel over outsiders, so he looked directly at Bai Xue and asked coldly:
"Also, our yard is new. If every brick is damaged, a large piece will have to be demolished and repaired. Is the uncle ready to pay for this? In addition, rent a yard as big as ours.
, I only need two taels of silver for a day's talk. For the sake of my neighbors, I'll give you a discount, so I'll collect five taels of silver in three days."
Bai Xue's eyes widened and she shouted subconsciously: "Your family is so rich, why do you still want to plot against my family?"
"Brothers can settle accounts, let alone an uncle who can calculate our family's property. If we don't explain these things clearly, won't my family suffer the consequences of being dumb?"
Bai Ling knocked on the table and said with a half-smile:
"In addition, our family has no place to live for the time being. You have to arrange a place for us to live. The environment is not worse than mine. Your family will have to pay for the moving expenses. We also have to ask the village chief and clan chief.
Be a witness, so that after we move out, it won't be certain who owns this house.
The most important thing is that we rent the yard to you, and you are not allowed to go to other places, but you cannot use our servants."
Bai Xue gritted her teeth and shot the knife at Bai Ling for free.
Bai Ling continued nonchalantly: "As for the day you get married, our family is busy and I guess we won't have time to attend the ceremony. We will arrange for a servant to attend the ceremony then. My family can still afford twenty yuan."
rise."
"Bai Ling, I am your cousin!" Bai Xue stood up angrily.
"I know, otherwise you wouldn't be qualified to sit here and talk to me."
Bai Ling slammed the table hard and shouted with a cold face:
"Bai Xue, don't think that you are the only smart one in the world! Think about what you have done before, do you regard my father as your third uncle? But do you regard your third uncle as your relative? Now you can use us, just
Are you worthy of talking about family ties?"
"If you have the guts, keep acting like a young lady. I, Bai Ling, can still look up to you! What do you mean now? Are you begging for mercy? People like you don't deserve sympathy, and I don't bother to prevent your family from biting you at any time.
.The door is over there, please leave slowly without seeing me, and don’t come to the door again no matter what happens. You will be the one who loses face by being kicked out!"
"You bully people too much! You and your family are all bastards!" Bai Xue covered her face and ran out crying.
Bai Sanshu looked in the direction of the door with some worry. If it weren't for the inconvenience of his legs, he might have chased him out.
"Bai Ling, what you just said was too harsh." Bai Sanshu looked at Bai Ling disapprovingly, but his tone was not serious.
"That was also forced out by their whole family! From the day my uncle didn't care about my life or death and wanted to sell me, I didn't have these relatives in my heart. Dad is not as cruel as my uncle, so he was softened by a few tears.
Xinxin, why don’t you think about how your wife and children were treated?”
"Dad, think about it for yourself! After a few days of going well, someone will come to disturb you. If we can't live like this anymore, why don't we all move far away so that we can hide away even if we can't offend me?
Give them all the family property, and our family will go begging for food, and no one will care about us anymore!"
Bai Ling's face was gloomy, and after saying that, he took Bai Cao's hand and went to the ground, not wanting to argue with Bai Sanshu, who was always unprincipled and soft-hearted.
"Sister, come to my room. I have found a lot of pearls and gems. You can see which ones are useful. Don't delay the business."
"Hey." Bai Cao glanced at his father who was speechless. He didn't say any words of persuasion and followed Bai Xue.
"Third girl, Myolie, let's go with mother to give gifts. Before our family has nothing, this favor cannot be broken. Maybe one day when we beg for food at the neighbor's door, we can still have hot porridge to drink." Bai Liu was also disappointed.
Don't go see Bai Sanshu.
The family has suffered so much, but they are always at odds because of those people with evil intentions, and Mrs. Bai Liu is tired of it.
Bai Wei, who had something to complain about, angrily hugged a few pieces of cloth and took the lead out the door.
Bai Liu and Bai Xing each carried snacks and closed the door before leaving, leaving Bai Sanshu alone in the house.
Bai Xue didn't know that after she left, the people in the third room would be unhappy. This time, she really hated everyone in the third room.
Bai Xue ran back to her old house crying all the way. When Bai Yuanshi saw her daughter's appearance, she knew that things were not going to work.
"The third child is too cruel. Xue'er is his niece. He is not willing to help with such a trivial matter. This is not what a biological uncle should do!"
Bai Yuanshi pulled Bai Xue into her arms distressedly and looked resentfully in the direction of the third room.
"I'll go talk to the third child." Bai Dashu put away his pipe and prepared to put on his shoes.
Since everything went wrong, Bai Dashu also learned to smoke, and he smoked a lot a day.
"Brother, it's better not to go. The third bedroom doesn't have the final say. Even if he agrees to accept you, it still depends on whether the other girls agree." Bai Ershu said sadly.
Last time I went to the third room to make a scene, the second room didn't participate.
It's not that the second roommate doesn't want to go, it's that Mrs. Bai and the others don't allow him to go, so he won't get a share of the pie.
"Bai Xue is also your niece, do you want to see her jokes too? If this marriage is ruined, will it be good for your Bai Mei's marriage?"
Bai Dashu glared at Bai Ershu with a sinister look, and was very tired of this second brother who only asked him for money. (To be continued)
