After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

"Our people pursued the case to the outskirts of the city, and only gave up when there were no more clues."

"The Second Master was punished by the Patriarch, but he also got important clues in return. However, now that the Patriarch has discovered it, the Second Master and the Old Lady cannot send any of their men out, so they can only send the little ones to search in secret."

"It's just that I need to put away the things that the master sent first, so that I can go there conveniently."

Knowing that no one at home was exposed and that everyone in Dayang Village had moved to Jiangzhou, even if Jiang Si went to investigate, he would not be able to find any clues in the chaotic Bingzhou.

The three members of the Bai family sighed secretly and relaxed.

Bai Qingyun asked, "Is the old lady's illness serious? What did the doctor at Jishidiang say?"

"It's very serious!" Jiang Si's expression showed worry for the first time, even though he was exhausted both physically and mentally.

Such an action made Bai Qingyun very surprised, but he knew in his heart that even the ruthless bandit would have a few loyal servants around him, let alone the mistress who enjoyed the wealth of the Jiang family!

It was just a change of thought, and then he began to hear Jiang Si continue to speak under the influence of the spiritual liquid.

"The old lady's illness has been treated with precious medicinal herbs from Jishidiang for three years. At first, she could still take her brothers and sisters out for a walk as usual, but now she is bedridden and has not left the house for many years. Unless it is necessary, she has rarely even left the yard."

"But the medicinal materials in the Divine Doctor Valley are different this year. His Majesty is seriously ill, so the head of the family must show his loyalty at this time and use the resources of Jishitang to win the favor of His Majesty."

"In addition to sending many of Jishitang's precious medicinal materials to the Imperial Hospital as usual, we will also send many more this year for His Majesty's recuperation."

"What good stuff can be left for the old lady? The ginseng is either less than a hundred years old, or it is old enough but not a whole ginseng. The medicinal effect is not enough, and the old lady's health can't be maintained. It's getting worse and worse."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have tried to find out the whereabouts of the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum..."

It was not until now that Bai Qingyun realized that he had underestimated Jiang Si's loyalty to the old lady.

The worry and sadness he expressed when he mentioned the old lady's serious illness, and the anger he expressed when he talked about the old patriarch, could not be faked.

“Hehehe…” He looked at the air in front of him with a ferocious look on his face, as if he saw the old patriarch in front of him and was about to tear him to pieces.

"The old lady has devoted all her energy to the Jiang family. When she was young, she worked hard for the head of the family to get promoted. The eldest daughter ran away from marriage, and in order to stabilize his position, she did not hesitate to let the second daughter, who she had doted on for many years, marry in her place."

"The Second Madam almost ruined the Jiang family's reputation because of this incident. It was only after the Old Madam stepped in to appease the backyard and brought the Second Miss out in public that the situation was restored."

"If it weren't for the old lady's help, how could he have been able to work outside peacefully for so many years? Now that the old lady is seriously ill, she is eager for her to move away so that her favorite concubine can take over. How can the old lady be willing to accept this!"

His voice was so loud that the nanny guarding the gate looked at the person roaring in the yard in shock. She also looked around to see if the noise had attracted any ignorant servants.

Although Jiang's mother was ill, she was sometimes lucid, and she had capable people to help her. The servants in the Jiang family were also quite good. When they received orders, they stayed away from the yard for fear of getting into trouble.

Naturally, he also heard Jiang Si's roar, which was venting the old lady's unwillingness.

Jiang Fu watched coldly, and his eyes did not change at all because of the sudden fluctuation of the sound waves. Even the voice was still tinged with anger and coldness.

"Haha, you think highly of her. Her help is to suppress the people in the first house so that your son can take the position. No matter how many troubles there are, they are always dealt with by the head of the family in the end!"

Jiang Si felt guilty for a moment, but it was quickly replaced by determination in his eyes.

"As a mother, she always has to think about her son. It's understandable that she did this. If you want to blame someone, blame... No one made plans for the master!"

"You!" Jiang Fu was furious: "How dare you talk nonsense about the master like this!"

If there hadn't been such a pause, which gave Jiang Si a brief time to speak, what he would have blurted out was: It's the master's fault that he doesn't have a biological mother!

With that being said, it’s no wonder Jiang Fu was so angry.

The same was true for everyone in the Bai family. The person who was most angry at the moment was Bai's mother.

Although she had been disappointed with her parents, as an only daughter, she had complicated feelings towards the parents who raised her. Although she was unwilling to acknowledge them, she absolutely could not tolerate anyone insulting her father like this.

Bai's mother was so angry that she lost her gentle and kind demeanor that she had developed as a child through upbringing. She spoke in a sharp voice.

"According to what you said, the old lady has been ill for so many years, and that's enough. If the aunt wants to take the throne, she should always consider her son! This is not wrong."

"If you want to blame someone, blame the second wife for not being lucky enough to let her own mother live a long life!"

Bai's mother curled her lips. Her grandfather was not loyal at all, and the concubines in the backyard were not good either. There were only two legitimate children.

The second wife was a jealous person. She had many concubines in the backyard, but not many of them could get pregnant and give birth successfully, so her father did not have many illegitimate sons and daughters.

After a long time, my grandfather started to keep the woman outside. Although it was not as convenient as keeping her in the mansion, it made it easier for the concubine to have children.

Although I don't know exactly how many concubines there are kept outside, it is certain that there are concubines.

Therefore, once the old lady died, without her to keep them in check, the second house would become a delicacy shared by the concubines. It would be difficult for them to smoothly take over the position of head of the family, or even to live a peaceful life.

She didn't believe that all those concubines would behave themselves after knowing the identity of the head of the family. There would always be one or two ambitious ones who wanted to take the position of the new Madam of the Jiang family.

Whether it is for the sake of one's children to smoothly marry into the Jiang family, or for one's own wealth and power, according to Jiang Si, what's wrong with it!

If you want to blame someone, blame her for getting sick and not being able to protect her own son after her death!

Fortunately, the second wife did not inherit any excellent genes, but she did master the essence of romanticism and was equally restless.

It's good that the two are fighting, but the eldest wife stays away from the center of the vortex and does not seek great wealth. It would be best if she has some money in her hands to live a stable life.

Ignoring Jiang Si's angry eyes, Bai Qingyun couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Bai's mother. He didn't expect that the quarrel would be like this.

Treat others in their own way, Bai's mother has a thorough understanding of the idea of ​​giving someone a taste of his own medicine!

Even the momentum of cursing is no less.

This is a completely different way of quarreling from the one in Kyoto, where people have to go through eighteen detours and use eight hundred tricks to argue with each other. It is refreshing for the Jiang family.

Jiang Fu's eyes rarely showed any anger, and he looked at Bai's mother with sparkling eyes.

You can have an argument this straightforward!
