Chapter 1029 Five thousand taels cannot be given in vain

Bai Ruozhu's eyes flashed with ridicule, and she stopped in front of her father and said, "Don't force my father on this matter, just ask me for money to talk to me."

"Mom, how could you do this? Why do you have the nerve to ask for these five thousand taels? Isn't the one thousand taels my father gave me back then not enough?" Bai Zhi was crying beside her and choked up. She had known that these things would happen today. She really shouldn't have called Bai Yihong's family to visit the old man. She naively imagined that she could make peace with her parents and reconcile with her second brother's family. Little did she know that such a secret was revealed today.

"Shut up, why are your elbows turned outward? Don't I have to put in effort to raise him? He's going to recognize his relatives, shouldn't he give me some compensation?" Mrs. Liu said confidently.

The light in Bai Yihong's eyes became colder and colder. He had never thought of giving the old man and Mr. Liu a sum of money as alimony for these years, but the old lady actually asked for five thousand taels. She really thought the money was falling from the sky. Of?

Mrs. Liu looked at Bai Ruozhu and said, "Why, you are not willing to give five thousand taels? Didn't you say that you are the most filial to your father? Why are you not willing to give these five thousand taels for your father?"

This time Mr. Bo couldn't stand listening anymore. He looked at Bai Fu and said, "Don't worry, this woman of yours must be crazy poor. She only needs five thousand taels per mouth. Even if she raises a family, she doesn't ask for money like this." , not to mention..."

As soon as he said the word "what's more", Bai Fu knew that Old Man Bo had already believed it, and his hands and feet started to tremble. Will the good image he finally created in front of Old Man be ruined?

He retracted his thoughts and said to Mrs. Liu, "Okay, I know you are feeling angry, but that's not how anger comes out. Forget it."

Bai Ruozhu sneered after hearing this, look, this old man is good at talking, he talks as if they raised Bai Yihong and was bitten by Bai Yihong, he feels aggrieved. He can tell lies without blushing.

It's a pity that Mrs. Liu's eyes were already covered by the five thousand taels. She followed Bai Fu's words and said, "Yeah, I'm really upset. After raising him so big, he still has to settle things with me. With their family, The money you make from doing business now, five thousand taels is nothing!"

Bai Fu was so angry that Mrs. Liu was so angry that he pointed at her and said, "That's enough. Stop messing around here!"

Bai Ruozhu looked at Mrs. Liu and suddenly said, "Since grandma has made an offer, I can give you five thousand taels!"

Everyone in the room fell silent. Bai Zhi hurriedly went to Bai Ruozhu and whispered: "She is unreasonable. Don't get angry with her. If you give her so much money, she will also waste the family."

After saying this, Bai Zhi blushed a little. She had never spoken about her own mother in this way before. She only realized something was wrong after she said it today, but these words were indeed what she was thinking at the moment.

Bai Lu also sighed helplessly. Five thousand taels were simply wasted by the couple. It would be better to send the children in the clan to study and become literate.

Mrs. Liu's eyes shone with excitement, she jumped up and grabbed Bai Ruozhu's arm, saying, "This is what you said, when will you give me the money?"

Bai Ruozhu pulled her hand away with some disgust and said: "I, Bai Ruozhu, naturally keep my word, but you just said that I will give you a sum of money, and it will be settled in the future, so you have to leave Bai Yuanqing to My father’s token is returned to us, otherwise what’s the point of clearing things up?”

Mrs. Liu's face fell instantly, "I have pawned the token a long time ago, where can I find it? After all, you still refuse to give me the money."

Bai Ruozhu shrugged her shoulders, turned to look at Old Man Bo and asked, "Old Master, do you think the five thousand taels I gave her is worth it in exchange for the token left by my father's late father? No matter whether my father recognizes us or not in the future, It would be nice to be able to find his biological father’s relics, right?”

Mr. Bo sighed, "It's right. If you're cheated, just find a way to get it back."

"Where are we two old people going to find it? Are you trying to make things difficult for us? You just don't want to give us money!" Ms. Liu shouted.

Bai Ruozhu said directly: "I can make a contract. As long as you return the token, I will give you five thousand taels immediately. I am willing to make a contract, so it's not like I refuse to pay, right?"

She laughed evilly in her heart. She naturally knew that Madam Liu could not find the token, but she just wanted to expose Madam Liu to her greedy side. Sure enough, Madam Liu did not disappoint her. She gave her five thousand taels as soon as she opened her mouth, which made the Bo family completely Look down on her.

She really knew how to write the deed, but she would definitely be able to find the token before Liu, unless the old man didn't sell the token at all, but hid it instead.

As she spoke, Bai Ruozhu asked Mrs. Bo to borrow a pen and paper, and wrote down the contract eloquently. Of course, she wrote down the ins and outs clearly to avoid being taken out of context and thought that her family was unfilial.

Finally, she took her fingerprints with Zhuqi and handed it to Old Man Bo.

"The old man is the most just. I will leave this deed to you for safekeeping and help us be the notary." Bai Ruozhu said.

Old Mrs. Bo looked at the beautiful regular script on the paper, and his impression of Bai Ruozhu was a little better. Even though Bai Fu said that he had read books all his life, his handwriting was not as good as Bai Ruozhu's. They say words can read people, he should have thought of it a long time ago.

"Okay, I am the senior one, so I will be your middleman." Old Mrs. Bo said.

Mrs. Liu was still yelling that she had nothing to do. Old Mrs. Bo glared at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Who asked you to pawn someone else's token? You can find a way to get it back by yourself!"

Mrs. Liu started to cry, saying that she was an old woman who was forced to death.

No one in the room wanted to pay attention to Mr. Liu, but Bai Fu opened his mouth to explain to Mr. Bo, but felt bitter in his mouth and didn't know what to say because he could see the disappointment in him from the old man's eyes.

At this moment, a servant from the Bo Mansion trotted over and said with a horrified look on his face: "Old Master and Madam, please go and have a look. The Marquis was carried back and was seriously injured!"

"What?" Mrs. Bo jumped up immediately, "What's going on? The Marquis was fine when he went to the morning court, how could he be injured?"

Mr. Bo also grabbed the boy by the collar and said, "Hurry up and tell me clearly!"

"I also saw it in the concierge. They brought the Marquis in. It seemed that they had encountered an assassin." The boy's face turned pale with fright, and he was speechless.

Mrs. Bo swayed, but she quickly stabilized and said to the old man: "Father-in-law, don't get so anxious. I'm going to check the situation first. Just come here slowly."

After saying this, Mrs. Bo walked quickly toward the outer courtyard. Bai Ruozhu glanced at her mother and said, "Mom, stay with dad. I'll go with you to see if I can help."

Lin Ping'er and Bai Yihong nodded hurriedly and told her to go quickly.

Old Mrs. Bo was anxious and walked to the outer courtyard. Bai Ruozhu hurriedly said to Bai Yixiao: "Uncle, please stay with Mr. Bo, don't let him be in a hurry."

Bai Yixiao nodded hurriedly, and Bai Lu also followed to help. Only Bai Fu and Liu were left aside.
