This was probably the sorrow of being born in a big family. Looking at his two sisters' ugly faces, Bai Hongguang couldn't help but sigh. Although he felt sorry for them, he couldn't change anything. p
He waved his hand helplessly and said, "Let's go and see what our nephew can do." p
"He's just a boy from the first branch. Even if he's favored by the old master, the second branch is still in charge of the Bai family now." p
Maybe because she had been treated coldly too many times, Bai Hongxue's mentality was extremely extreme, and her desire for power was far greater than that of ordinary people. The second branch being in charge was a kind of capital for her to show off. Hearing that, she curled her lips disdainfully and sneered. p
But Bai Hongyu and Bai Hongbing didn't think so. If the second branch of the Bai family was not in charge, maybe their lives in the in-laws' family would be better. p
If it was only their husbands who treated them coldly, it would be fine. But now even their children were cold to them. p
It was both funny and sad that the culprits of all this happened to be the disciples of the second branch. They were used to being arrogant and treated their cousins like pet dogs. They came and went at their beck and call. Young people were proud and naturally could not stand this kind of anger. In addition, their in-laws fanned the flames, causing them to hate their own mother. p
Therefore, Bai Hongyu and Bai Hongbing looked at each other and refused flatly, "We won't go. It's time to go and meet our family." p
"Big sister, second sister, what do you mean? Dad had a stroke. Now is the time for us brothers and sisters to work together. Don't you care about the big picture? " p
Bai Hongxue screamed sharply and looked at her two sisters in disbelief. p
"We won't be part of the Bai family anymore after we get married. We don't want to get involved in the internal affairs of the Bai family." p
Bai Hongyu was a weak person. Being yelled at by Bai Hongxue, she said timidly. p
"Big sister, what are you talking about? Even if you get married, you will still be part of the Bai family. After all, we are family." p
Bai Hongxue's face was livid. She didn't care whether her two sisters would go or not, but she couldn't accept that they refused her arrangement. p
"Family? Heh! We didn't dare to think of ourselves as members of the Bai Family. When my son came to the Bai Family, even a servant of the Bai Family dared to give him an unpleasant look and said some unpleasant words. When I got home, my son asked me if my surname was really Bai. I don't even know how to answer him. " p
Bai Hong Bing's face was filled with mockery and bitterness as he spoke. p
Bai Hongxue's expression changed. "Which servant is so bold? If you tell me, I will definitely punish him and make him kneel down and apologize to Second Sister. " p
"There's no need. I'm afraid that after you punish him, my son and daughter will suffer even more." p
Bai Hongbing smiled coldly, turned around, and left resolutely. p
Bai Hongyu timidly glanced at Bai Hongxue's livid face. Fearing that she would be unhappy, he explained, "Little sister, don't blame your second sister. She was forced into a corner. In the past, for the benefit of our family, we sacrificed our own happiness and married someone we didn't like. At that time, when we went back to our parents' home, we could still be warmly received. But when our in-laws failed, when we went back to the Bai Family, we were all treated with disdain. I … alas! Anyway, I have to go now. " p
Before he finished speaking, Bai Hongyu lowered his head, turned around, and left in a hurry. p
"Big brother, are they crazy? No matter what, they are still members of the Bai Family. At this time, shouldn't we be in the same boat and tide over the difficulties together? But they … really let me down. Do they still have the surname Bai? It's simply … "
Bai Hongxue's expression changed, and she said indignantly. It wasn't that she didn't understand the reason, but that she was used to being domineering and didn't like to be disobeyed. She didn't expect that the two sisters, who were usually yes-men, would dare to refute her at this moment, which made her very unhappy. p
"Alright, stop talking. It's time for you to change your temper. After all, they are your sisters, not your employees. It's fine if you don't understand them, but don't fan the flames here." p
Bai Hongguang impatiently interrupted her chatter. He also hated this little sister to the extreme, so he unceremoniously scolded her. p
"Big brother, what are you talking about? Did I offend you? " p
Bai Hongxue's long, shapely eyebrows were furrowed. She could be considered pretty, but at this moment, she looked so ferocious. p
"Little sister, big brother is right. We all know you have a good life, but you don't have to always show off your superiority in front of big sister and second sister, do you? They are your elder sisters, not other people. Don't you feel sad to see them in such an unhappy state now? Is it really good for you to build your happiness on your sisters' pain? " p
Bai Hongda couldn't stand it anymore, and said in a strange tone. p
"Fourth brother, am I as boring as you say? Hmph, it's not my fault that their children are mistreated in the Bai Family. Why should I bear this responsibility? If they want to blame someone, they can only blame themselves for marrying two good-for-nothings. " p
Bai Hongxue's expression was frosty, and she glared at Bai Hongda. p
Bai Hongguang and Bai Hongda looked at each other, and immediately blushed. They were embarrassed and speechless. Their two sisters' children came to the Bai Family, and their children didn't treat them well. Although Bai Hongxue's words were unpleasant, they were the truth. p
Although those two families weren't as rich as the Bai Family, they were still among the top aristocratic families. Otherwise, the Bai Family wouldn't have married them in the first place. Unfortunately, after the old men of the two families died, they weren't qualified successors at all. The prodigal son was used to spending money extravagantly, and the huge businesses quickly shrank in their hands. The decline was inevitable. Now, they relied on the Bai Family's relatives to barely make a living. p
The scariest thing was that they didn't become brave after being humiliated, and didn't work hard to boost up the family. Instead, they broke the pot. Although their family's foundation was ruined, they still wanted to save face and suffered. Wherever they went, they paid attention to extravagance, and lived an extravagant life. When they had no money, they came to the Bai Family to beg for money. p
Although the Bai Family was rich, they weren't a charity organization. At first, they often helped out because of their marriage, but they couldn't stop the shameless people from coming to beg for money every two or three days. p
They couldn't say anything, but the other children of the Bai Family didn't want to. Naturally, they humiliated these shameless people in all kinds of ways. After humiliating them, they gave them money like beggars and sent them away. They were happy to turn a blind eye and pretend they didn't see it. p
But they didn't expect that those two families would be so shameless. After being wronged by the Bai Family, they went back and vented their anger on their two sisters. The current situation was indeed caused by them, but they couldn't do anything about it. They could understand that their two sisters had grievances, but they couldn't do anything about it. After all, they couldn't help the poor. If their brother-in-law was like that, no matter how much money he had, he would lose it all. They couldn't help them fill that bottomless pit. p
"What? Nothing to say? The Bai Family is really affectionate and righteous. Initially, you were the one who proposed the marriage. We sacrificed our lifetime happiness in exchange for this result. Are you satisfied now? " p
There was a strong resentment in Bai Hongxue's tone. Although she seemed to be living a good life now, only one knew how cold the water was. The only thing she was glad about was that she and her husband liked each other, although the price she paid was to break up with the man she deeply loved. After all, no matter how deeply she loved the man, they couldn't be together if they didn't have the same social status. No one knew about this part of the past. She buried it deep in her heart and didn't want to touch it. p
She was a very strong and realistic woman. She believed that a woman could be more attractive only if she was independent. Therefore, after marriage, she didn't choose to be a housewife who supported her husband and raised her children like her two sisters did. Instead, she focused on her work and finally became the boss of a state-owned enterprise, which gave her absolute autonomy in society and life. p
In a blink of an eye, more than 20 years had passed. She didn't know where her lover was. Although she and her husband treated each other with respect, it was impossible to say that she didn't have any regrets and resentment in her heart. p
After all, her current husband was not the man she loved deeply. It was just because he was more suitable to be her marriage partner than the man she loved. Even if the Bai Family didn't support it, they wouldn't oppose it too much. p
"Alright, there's no point in blaming each other in this kind of situation." p
Bai Hongguang sighed and quickly walked out to end this unpleasant conversation. p
"Right, where's Bai Yuan?" p
Seeing that his fourth brother and little sister had caught up, and Bai Jun and Bai Hui were also carefully following behind, Bai Hongguang suddenly frowned and turned around to ask. p
It was Old Man Bai's birthday. Although there was quite a commotion at the entrance and many people went out to watch, there were still many people who maintained their status and stayed in the courtyard. p
The descendants of the Bai Family's second branch were all attentively entertaining the guests, but Bai Hongguang didn't see Bai Yuan's figure among them. How could he not feel strange? p
"Big Brother Yuan, he …"
Bai Hui looked at Bai Hongguang timidly. His lips moved, but he didn't say anything. p
"Speak, where did he go? Why didn't I see him? " p
Bai Hongguang's face suddenly darkened. He was secretly worried. Bai Yuan was the son he valued the most. He wouldn't directly go out and fight with Bai Qing, right? p
"Big Brother Yuan, he … he …"
Bai Hui hemmed and hawed for a long time, but couldn't say anything. p
Seeing his timid appearance, Bai Hongguang immediately became angry. He pulled a long face and said sternly, "Your uncle is asking you a question. Why are you stammering? Hurry up and say it." p
Bai Jun saw that Bai Hui's face was pale from fright and couldn't say anything for a long time. He hurriedly said, "Big Brother Yuan was busy arranging the old man's birthday last night and didn't sleep for the whole night. In the morning, he accompanied the old man to Babao Mountain. He couldn't take it anymore, so he went back to his room to rest for a while." p
"Bastard, this good-for-nothing thing. I'm really going to die of anger because of him." p
The muscles on Bai Hongguang's face twitched. He was so angry that his whole body trembled. He couldn't restrain his anger and cursed loudly. p
He knew that Bai Yuan didn't come back at all last night. He didn't know where he was enjoying himself. He only came back drowsily after receiving his call early in the morning. After coming back from Babao Mountain, he went back to sleep and still hadn't gotten up. He didn't care about the old man's birthday at all. p
Bai Jun's words were obviously to cover for Bai Yuan. Although he had good intentions, he was so angry that smoke was coming out of his seven orifices. A strong sense of powerlessness grew in his heart.
/p
Even the Patriarch Bai was specially grooming him. The most important successor of the Patriarch was like this. How could he compete with Bai Qing? p
Bai Hongguang sighed. He was speechless for a while. This Bai Yuan was the most capable descendant in the fourth generation of the Bai Family's second branch. He didn't expect that he was also a useless fool. At this time, he could still sleep peacefully. What hope did the second branch have to compete for the position of Patriarch? p
Bai Hongxue's eyes flickered. She couldn't help but feel disappointed in this nephew who was closer to her. However, seeing the dispirited look of her two brothers, she still spoke up to console them. "Yuan-er is still young. His temperament is unstable. Why don't you quickly find him a wife? After he gets married and starts a family, his temperament will settle down." p
