“Tell me what you know.” Pei Qinghan’s voice eased a little bit. Without the previous coldness. And when he mentioned Bai Zhi, his eyes became a bit soft. A softness that made Bai Zhenzhu’s felt uncomfortable.
“So, did Houye accept my proposal?” Bai Zhenzhu raised an eyebrow as she looked at him.
Pei Qinghan snorted: “Don’t think about the position of the eldest lady anymore. You can only be an adopted daughter at most. If that happened, you can at least find a husband with a good family and have a rich dowry. That’s all there is to it. You can accept it or not.”
Bai Zhenzhu calculated it secretly in her heart. She felt that Pei Qinghan’s proposal seemed to be the best result. As long as she could stay in this Houfu and continue to enjoy a rich life. So what if she was only an adopted daughter?
Besides, if she became Pei Qinghan’s adopted daughter, she can find a husband with a family similar to Changyuan Houfu. Otherwise, if not, won’t Pei Qinghan lose his face?
“Okay, that’s it, dad!” She smiled beautifully like a flower and paid him greetings respectfully.
Pei Qinghan’s heart turned cold, he waved his hand in dissatisfaction: “You don’t need to act like this in the future. You don’t need to act like a noble lady. I will naturally let you live a good life. But if you don’t behave yourself, then don’t blame me for not being affectionate! “
Affectionate?
Bai Zhenzhu sneered inside her heart. Between them, is there this thing called affection?
“Talk about it. I want to hear everything about Bai Zhi.” Pei Qinghan sat back and took a sip of the cold tea.
Bai Zhenzhu pondered for a while. Should she tell the truth or not?
If she tells the truth, Pei Qinghan will definitely be angry. If she tells lies, she will be exposed sooner or later.
“What are you doing?” Why aren’t you talking?” Pei Qinghan asked.
Bai Zhenzhu simply asked: “Do you want to hear the truth or lies?”
“Of course, the truth. Do you even need to ask?” Pei Qinghan said.
“Then, if you hear ugly words, don’t be angry after you hear it. Even if you are angry, you can’t blame me. It has nothing to do with me.” Bai Zhenzhu said.
Pei Qinghan frowned. What does she mean? Did Bai Zhi had a bad life in Huangtuo Village?
No, if she has a bad life, how can she learn medicine? As everyone knows, being a doctor was very profitable and respected by many.
“Although what you say may be true, I will not argue with you.”
Hearing his words, Bai Zhenzhi no longer felt worried.
“Bai Zhi is two years younger than me. She has lost her father at an early age. Her mother worked hard in the Bai family because she had not remarried. Her mother only wanted Bai Zhi to have a bite to eat and survive.”
“Bai Zhi has always been timid and cowardly. She was used like a maidservant by Xiaofeng, but never dared to resist it. A few months ago, my grandmother and aunt said that they would sell her to a dying sick old man as a concubine. She refused regardless of life and death, so while Zhao Lan was not at home, my grandmother and aunt beat her to death.”
“It’s strange to say but, she who died came back to life. But from then on, she was like a different person. She was no longer timid and cowardly. She even made Zhao Lan separate from the Bai family. They lived separately, but since then, their life has been better and better. She even somehow learned medical skills.”
Pei Qinghan’s face looked very ugly. His fingers that were holding the armchair turned pale. As countless pictures appearing from his mind.
