Bai Yutang opened the long list in his hand, picked up a pen to write and draw on it.The marriage with Ding Yueying is also almost arranged, Gongsun Ce has helped to choose a good day, and the nanny and four brothers will also come from Xingkong Island.

"You looking for me?" Zhan Zhao appeared at the door of Bai Yutang's room.

"Come in and talk!" Bai Yutang beckoned Zhan Zhao to come in and sit down.

"Look at what you need. Let's buy it together. Your lord said to give us a plaque." Bai Yutang handed Zhan Zhao the list. In addition to the things needed for the marriage ceremony, there were also items needed for the new house.

Bao Zheng has already written the plaques of "Zhanfu" and "Baifu", and is waiting for the craftsmen to do them.

Zhan Zhao thought it was a bit funny, what kind of situation would Zhanfu and Baifu face to face?

"Don't be stubborn, the adults have spoken, you can go out and live, not far from the government office." Bai Yutang said.Zhan Zhao's relationship with Ding Yuehua became cold again, and the house was always covered by dark clouds.

Zhan Zhao shook his head.Bai Yutang didn't understand what this incident meant to him. Zhan Zhao had never left Bao Zheng since the first day he entered Kaifeng Mansion, and he was always worried about Bao Zheng.

"Oh, why can't you figure it out? My lord doesn't need you to stay around for a while, so don't you go to bed when you go on errands? Don't you just sleep until dawn?" Bai Yutang's persuasive persuasion made him feel annoyed .

"But..." Zhan Zhao thought about what Bai Yutang said was reasonable.

"Don't worry about it, it's settled. I'll go to Yuehua and tell her to choose the things she needs and buy them together." Bai Yutang picked up the list and got up to leave.

"Don't bother, we don't need anything." Zhan Zhao followed out of the room.

"It's not good, it's better to ask Yuehua to take a look, so as not to cause trouble in the future." Bai Yutang said.

Women are a very troublesome thing, Bai Yutang is afraid that if the arrangement is not good now, it will waste time in the future, and if he is not satisfied, it will be even more troublesome to start all over again.

While Bai Yutang was talking, he saw the yamen servant walking towards him with something.

"Fifth Bai, there is a girl outside who wants to see you." The yamen servant handed over something.

Bai Yutang's expression changed suddenly, and he immediately asked the yamen servant to bring the girl in.

"Brother Bai, what is this?" Zhan Zhao saw that this matter must be serious, otherwise Bai Yutang's expression would not be so ugly.

"Zhan Zhao, this jade pendant is an heirloom passed down from our Bai family to our daughter-in-law, and mine is in Yue Ying's hands. This piece originally belonged to my elder brother Bai Jintang. After my elder brother passed away, I couldn't find his jade pendant. Now It suddenly appeared again, I'm afraid it will cause trouble again." Bai Yutang was very worried.

The yamen servant brought in a weak-looking little girl, about [-] years old, who didn't seem to be from the Central Plains, and she was holding a little boy in her hand.

"I am Xiao Xiaonu, Bai Jintang's fiancée, and this child is his son." The girl looked at Bai Yutang sadly.

"What? Brother's fiancée?" Bai Yutang had never heard from his elder brother that he had a fiancée, and she was actually a Khitan?

"Do you know that my elder brother has passed away?" Bai Yutang asked again.

Bai Yutang's eldest brother, Bai Jintang, passed away many years ago. He was never married, and he had never heard of any girl he was in love with.At this moment, a fiancée popped out suddenly, and even had a son, Bai Yutang was quite frightened.

"Originally, I was waiting for him to pick me up in Daliao, but after so many years I couldn't wait for him, so I went to Jinhua with the token he gave me, and only then did I know that he had passed away." Xiao Xiaonu said.

The next thing was that Xiao Xiaonu found out that Bai Jintang had a younger brother named Bai Yutang who was working in Kaifeng Mansion, so he brought his son to Kaifeng to look for him.

Bai Jintang did go to Daliao to do business during his lifetime, but he went there for several years and died not long after returning home.Bai Yutang also confirmed that the jade pendant belonged to his brother, and this girl named Xiao Xiaonu should be telling the truth.

Bai Yutang hugged the little boy in a daze.

"Oh, there is an extra sister-in-law and a child. I really can't adapt to it all at once."

Ding Yueying looked at the little boy, his brows were somewhat similar to Bai Yutang's.

"Hey... this child is not your illegitimate child, is it?" Ding Yueying said suddenly.

"Bah, bah, bah! Don't talk nonsense! Am I, Bai Yutang, this kind of person?" Bai Yutang also felt that this kid looked a lot like his elder brother.

"What's your name? How old are you?" Bai Yutang only remembered to ask the child's name.

"Bai Yunsheng, five years old." The child didn't recognize his birth, so he answered when asked.

"Oh, oh, it's over, this child must be the eldest brother's." Bai Yutang remembered that his elder brother once said that if he had a son in the future, he would name him Bai Yunsheng.

Ding Yueying hugged Bai Yunsheng, let him sit on her lap, and gave him some snacks.

"What's the end! You should be happy to have such a cute nephew for nothing!" At least Ding Yueying felt quite happy.

"No, no, Yue Ying, I always felt that this matter would not be so simple." Bai Yutang's premonition was always very effective, he felt that there was a problem, and there was probably a problem.

Ding Yueying didn't take it seriously, hugged Bai Yunsheng to tease him, ignored Bai Yutang, Bai Yutang sighed, and hoped nothing would happen.

Bai Yutang has already arranged for Xiao Xiaonu to live in Kaifeng Mansion temporarily, how to arrange for the mother and son, Bai Yutang has not yet thought of a suitable way.

In the evening, Bao Zheng asked everyone to gather in the study, saying that they had something to say.

Zhan Zhao, Ding Yuehua, Bai Yutang, Ding Yueying and Gongsun Ce all arrived.Seeing Bao Zheng's serious expression, Bai Yutang felt that the situation was serious.

"Yutang, that Miss Xiao just came to see the mansion." Bao Zheng said.

"My lord, what did she say?" Bai Yutang asked.

"She said that she would marry you as a concubine according to the customs of the Khitan people." Bao Zheng replied.

"What?" Everyone was taken aback.

This barbaric custom of the Khitan people has always been despised by the Song Dynasty. The Han people have never done such absurd things. When the husband dies, he must marry his younger brother or son.

"My lord, this subordinate absolutely refuses!" Bai Yutang said immediately.

Marrying a sister-in-law as a wife is simply inferior to a beast!Bai Yutang could not do such a thing.What's more, Bai Yutang and Ding Yueying are going to get married soon, how can they get involved with other women?

"The government also knows that you will not agree, but Miss Xiao still needs your advice." Bao Zheng said.

How could Bao Zheng not know Bai Yutang's thoughts, although he usually provokes some Yingying and Yanyan, but he has always been very serious about marriage, except for Ding Yueying, he doesn't think about anything else, but Xiao Xiaonu still needs to be careful.

"This subordinate understands." Bai Yutang said so, but he was very irritable in his heart, and he didn't know how to deal with this situation.

When Bai Yutang came to the guest room, Xiao Xiaonu had already put the child to sleep, and he was mending clothes with a needle and thread under the lamp.

"Sister-in-law is so late, why don't you rest early and do it tomorrow." Bai Yutang said politely.He's not good at rejecting women.

"Second uncle, drink a glass of water." Xiao Xiaonu poured a glass of water for Bai Yutang, and Bai Yutang took it.

"Did sister-in-law meet Master Bao?" Bai Yutang asked.

"Yes, we are orphans and widowed, I want to ask Lord Bao to make the decision for me to marry my second uncle according to the Khitan custom." Xiao Xiaonu looked up at Bai Yutang with a sad face.

"I know that my second uncle is about to get married, I have no extravagant hopes, I just want to be my second uncle's concubine." Xiao Xiaonu's voice trembled slightly.

Bai Yutang sighed.

"Sister-in-law, we don't have this custom in Song Dynasty. Since the eldest brother has passed away, sister-in-law can remarry, but Yunsheng wants to stay." Bai Yutang said.

Bai Yutang had always disapproved of those women who set up chastity archways, and would stay at her husband's house even after her husband died, so there was no objection to such a life.

It's just that his elder brother, this flesh and blood, wants to stay with him as a descendant of the Bai family.

"Second uncle, I don't want to leave, please let me stay, let me marry you as a concubine, and serve you for the rest of my life." Xiao Xiaonu knelt at Bai Yutang's feet.

"Hey...don't be like this, get up and talk." Bai Yutang lost his mind.

Xiao Xiaonu covered his face and wept, refusing to get up.

"Don't be like this...give me some time to think about it, okay?" Bai Yutang couldn't blame Xiao Xiaonu either, so he could only use the strategy of delaying the attack first to stabilize her.

It is not easy for Xiao Xiaonu to go to the Great Song Dynasty to find a husband by herself with her children suffering all kinds of humiliation. Bai Yutang is not the kind of person who cares about the worldly etiquette. If she meets her, she will never abandon Ding Yueying, and she has no intention of taking a concubine.

Ding Yueying stood pitifully in Bai Yutang's courtyard waiting for him. As soon as Bai Yutang saw Ding Yueying, he hurried forward to grab her and pulled her into his arms.

"You have been wronged." Bai Yutang expressed his heartfelt feelings with Ding Yueying in his arms.

"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter. I won't marry her. Only you are my wife, the only wife." Bai Yutang held Ding Yueying's delicate face in his hands, and gently tapped her on the forehead. kiss.

"Actually...that day we..." Ding Yueying suddenly wanted to tell the truth and give Bai Yutang a chance to choose.

Bai Yutang covered her mouth with his hand.

"Don't say it, I said that I will be responsible for you, and I will only treat you well in this life."

Ding Yueying nodded with tears in her eyes, and threw herself into Bai Yutang's embrace again.

Never thought that Ding Yueying's marriage would be so difficult with twists and turns, Ding Yuehua sighed endlessly.It's better for me, although I don't get along well with Zhan Zhao, but at least I don't have any troubles in this regard, and the marriage process went smoothly.

"Yuehua, why are you in a daze?" Zhan Zhao called his little lady who was wandering in thoughts.

"Ah...it's nothing..." Ding Yuehua scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Come and see this." Zhan Zhao called Ding Yuehua over.
