Quickly wear a child: The heirless bosses love me like their life
Chapter 2 The Black Emperor Suffering from Mania (2)
"I can marry the fifth young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but..."
"I want to light a perpetual lamp for my mother at Ning'an Temple outside the city, and perform rituals for six consecutive days. You pay for it!"
The girl's voice was hoarse and there was a red mark at the corner of her eye, like the magnificent sunset in the sky.
Her snow-white skin, under the sunlight, looks even more icy and beautiful.
Bai Chuxin felt her teeth itching when she saw this.
This Bai Churuo, who was deliberately locked up by her for two days, has become even more outstanding in appearance!
Mother was right, Bai Churuo and Jiang Wanrou were both vixens!
"Bai Churuo, are you crazy?"
"Ning'an Temple is a royal temple. It costs 10,000 taels of silver to light a perpetual lamp, and 1,000 taels of silver for each ritual. How can my mother and I have so much money?"
Bai Chuxin's tone was a little sour.
Zou was the descendant of a criminal and should have been exiled, but Bai Yiming couldn't bear to see his first love suffer, so he used his connections to buy Zou.
The money was still taken from Jiang Wanrou, but the purpose was concealed.
Jiang Dai snorted coldly, his lowered eyes making it impossible to tell his emotions.
"You and Zou are poor, but the Jiang family's assets were handed over to Zou by my father for management. The profit of the shops near the imperial capital alone is more than 20,000 taels a month."
"not to mention……"
She suddenly looked up and looked at the exquisite gold hairpin inlaid with rubies on Bai Chuxin's head with cold eyes.
"This hairpin is a new model from the Jinyu Pavilion. It must cost at least five thousand taels of silver."
"If others knew about this, I would rather spend five thousand taels to buy a gold hairpin than to perform a ritual for my stepmother. I don't know how they would frame me."
"Although my grandfather and mother are gone, the Jiang family still has a few loyal servants..."
Hearing this, Bai Chuxin subconsciously held the hairpin and took a step back.
This was the jewelry that Zou bought for Bai Chuxin after she took control of the Jiang family's assets and had money. She didn't expect that Bai Chuxin's eyes were so sharp!
But what she feared the most was the loyal servant of the Jiang family as mentioned by Bai Churuo!
My father and mother have just taken charge of the Jiang family business not long ago. Many managers only obey them on the surface, and no one knows what they are planning behind the scenes. It will take some time to turn them into confidants.
We can only stabilize the situation temporarily and make long-term plans.
"This is a serious matter. I need to discuss it with my mother before making a decision."
After leaving a word, Bai Chuxin left in a hurry and the door was closed again.
008 is a little worried.
"What if Bai Chuxin and Zou don't agree?"
In order to prevent Bai Churuo from escaping, there are people guarding outside.
If I can't get out of the Bai Mansion smoothly this time, it won't be so easy to meet Xiao Yunzheng in a few days.
Jiang Dai curled his lips and smiled.
"Don't worry, they will agree."
"After all, this amount of money is nothing compared to the Jiang family's wealth!"
As long as Zou and Bai Yiming want to successfully swallow up the Jiang family's property, they must first deal with "Bai Churuo"!
It's just less than 20,000 taels of silver, they can afford the loss.
Sure enough, Bai Chuxin's maid came over soon to deliver the news.
Zou agreed, but during the six days of the ritual, two maids would follow Bai Churuo closely.
Jiang Dai nodded in agreement as expected.
After the maid left, Jiang Dai asked:
"Hachi, among the props for increasing body fragrance, are there any that can make people feel warm and relaxed?"
008 searched the mall and found several.
"There are several, warm jade and warm fragrance, spring is melting, and the sky is clear after the rain..."
Jiang Dai looked around and finally fixed his sight on Chun Yirong.
[Spring Melt: After use, it can increase body fragrance, smelling like seeing spring flowers blooming, making people feel happy and warm, only for use in this world. ]
Jiang Dai made the decision immediately.
"That's it! Hachi, help me exchange it!"
008 just made a small move and the original 10 points became 8 points.
A ball of warm light merged into Jiang Dai's body, and a faint warm fragrance filled the air, refreshing her heart.
"It smells pretty good. I hope Xiao Yunzheng doesn't waste my two points!"
Jiang Dai said secretly.
Early the next morning, under the watchful eyes of two maids, Jiang Dai boarded the carriage bound for Ning'an Temple.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Bai Yiming, Zou Shi, and Bai Chuxin got out from the other two carriages.
"Why are they here too?"
008 asked doubtfully.
Jiang Dai's eyes swept across the plain clothes of the three people, with a sarcastic smile on his lips.
"Of course I'm here to put on a show!"
"After all, it's a waste of money. Bai Yiming will definitely not miss this opportunity to promote his good reputation."
Sure enough, when he lit the eternal lamp for Jiang Wanrou, Bai Yiming looked extremely sad and even shed a tear.
When the pilgrims around saw this, they couldn't help but talk about it.
"Master Bai really values his wife, he even spent 12,000 taels to light a perpetual lamp!"
"That's what I said. There must be a reason why Mrs. Bai's funeral was so simple."
"Tsk tsk, that was the former Madam Bai. The current Madam Bai is someone else!"
"Mrs. Bai looks quite gentle now, not like a bad person..."
"Oh, bad guys don't write the word bad on their faces. You guys are still too young."
"Both daughters of the Bai family are good-looking, but unfortunately the older one is already engaged, and the younger one is a stepdaughter, so her status is a bit lower."
"Don't mention it, this stepdaughter looks a lot like Lord Bai. If you don't know, you would think she is his biological daughter!"
……
The discussions of the crowd made Zou and Bai Chuxin, who felt guilty, feel a little uneasy and they just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
But Jiang Dai suddenly burst into tears and knelt in front of Jiang Wanrou's eternal lamp in grief.
"My daughter is unfilial. She has not served her mother till the end of her life. I wish to stay in Ning'an Temple for six days, kneeling to bid farewell to her. I hope she will have a good journey and everything will go well in her next life!"
But in my heart I said:
Don't worry, no matter if they are your enemies or Bai Churuo's enemies, I will take revenge on them one by one!
The flame of the eternal lamp flickered slightly, as if someone was responding.
Xiao Yunzheng, who saw this scene as soon as he climbed up to Ning'an Temple, frowned slightly and spoke in an impatient tone.
"Why is Ning'an Temple so noisy today?"
The noise made him want to kill someone!
The eunuch Fuquan who was accompanying him asked around among the crowd for a while and reported to Xiao Yunzheng:
"Your Majesty, it was the Minister of Rites Bai Yiming who, in order to mourn the late Madam, lit a long-burning lamp for her at the Ning'an Temple and performed rituals for six consecutive days. Today is the first day."
"The person who just spoke was the late Madam's only daughter, the eldest daughter of the Bai family, Bai Churuo."
After hearing this, Xiao Yunzheng immediately remembered.
Bai Yiming was from a poor family and had average abilities, but he married a wife who was willing to spend money to take care of him. In order to balance the aristocratic families, Xiao Yunzheng was determined to support the poor, and Bai Yiming rose all the way to become the current Minister of Rites.
Who knew that Bai Yiming was not as obedient as he appeared.
Thinking of the news that the spy had brought before, Xiao Yunzheng looked at Bai Churuo's slightly thin back with pity.
"It's a poor ..."
