Chapter 285 Adoption
No trace of Yuan.
Bai Yue'e was adopted by the eldest wife of the Bai family and also experienced some twists and turns.
The Zhou family is headed by Old Lady Zhou, and it is clear on her face that she dislikes her granddaughter.
Old Mrs. Bai went to Zhou's house and talked about the adoption matter, and Old Mrs. Zhou made a fuss about it.
Finally, Old Lady Bai had no choice but to give Old Lady Zhou thirty taels of silver before the matter was settled.
Bai Yue'e was present throughout the entire process.
Bai Yue'e grew up in Wugui Mountain and this is her first time going down the mountain.
She didn't know much about the outside world at first, but during her escape, she had some idea about money.
"Grandma, after you sell me today and I become rich, don't come to me again with such a licking face."
Bai Yue'e would not say anything harsh. She just said a few words and then left with Old Lady Bai.
Since that day, Bai Yue'e and the Zhou family have been at odds.
The reason they chose today for the adoption is mainly because this day is a big day for them.
The newly produced bricks at the brick kiln meet Bai Zhao's requirements.
Bai Jingzhi believes that this is a day worth remembering, and their Wujiyuan will begin to rise from this day.
The Bai family discussed it and decided that it would be better to hold the family recognition banquet today than to wait for another day.
Only those who were close to the Bai family were invited.
In addition to Old Mrs. Zhou, the Zhou family also came.
Old Mrs. Zhou and Old Mrs. Bai were not on good terms, so the Zhou family moved into the second wooden house a few days ago.
The two old ladies rarely see each other.
Old Mrs. Bai can't sit still, and Old Mrs. Zhou lies in the house all day complaining about pains all over her body.
The two of them didn't meet and things were basically peaceful.
Since Old Mrs. Zhou didn't come, naturally there was no one to spoil the fun.
The two families lived happily together.
Yu Erniang and Bai Yuchan sat at the table with envious looks on their faces.
The two of them did not quarrel or argue, but just quietly ate the food on the table.
The two of them, one a rich lady and the other a wealthy family, at this moment actually envied their harmony.
There is no intrigue or jealousy, the family lives a relaxed life, and their days are simple but warm and happy.
Wei Liu and his wife drank together, taking turns to drink.
Later they got together again, talking about something.
Wei Li was having some difficulty.
Ever since he revealed his identity, his younger brothers and sisters have been pestering him.
Wei Yao, in particular, always followed him and was unwilling to leave.
Wei Li has a feminine and handsome appearance. Gu Tinglou said that he looks a bit like the eldest lady.
Wei Yao must have regarded him as her mother, which was why she kept pestering him.
After hearing these words, Wei Li couldn't bear to let his sister go.
Wei Li has had some free time these days, and he has Wei Yao in his hands.
There is no rift between the two siblings and they have a very harmonious relationship.
Wei Duan standing aside seemed a little awkward.
Bai Jingzhi wanted to roll his eyes when he thought of the Wei family's shitty rules.
The children of the family should develop in the direction in which they have talents. There is no need for the eldest son to study martial arts and the other children to study literature.
If she could be the head of the Wei family, this would be the first rule she would abolish.
Along the way, Bai Jingzhi had more contact with Wei Duan.
This child is smart and learns things quickly.
When Wei Dayong was still around, he taught them Wei family boxing, and Wei Duan learned the fastest.
Her two cousins and one cousin are far inferior to Wei Duan.
Often Wei Duan learned three or four moves, while her brothers only remembered one.
Wei Duan is relatively balanced, and is good at both civil and military affairs.
If possible, it would be better to master both civil and military affairs, but he would have to work twice as hard as others.
I wonder if Wei Duan, who grew up in a honey pot, can bear this kind of bitterness.
Several gentlemen from the Nalan family were also there. When they saw Wei Duan, their eyes seemed to light up.
Bai Jingzhi had a plan in mind and decided the temporary destination of these literati.
At this stage, it is most suitable for them to be teachers.
Wujiyuan was just starting out and everyone was doing manual labor; these gentlemen wanted to help but were unable to do so.
It is better to put the right people in the right positions so that they can be more effective.
Bai Jingzhi couldn't help but shift his gaze to Wei Duan and Wei Yao. These two children will be busy in the future, and their previous idle days are gone forever.
Hua Kezhen was drinking alone at another table. Bai Zhao walked over with a glass of wine. They said something to each other, but the two of them started drinking happily and laughing as they drank.
"Sister Yue'e, today is a happy day. Go to your aunt and ask for her help. We will be a family from now on."
Bai Jingzhi leaned close to Bai Yue'e's ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "We'll talk about the action tonight."
Old Lady Bai saw them whispering and squeezed over, "You two are cousins now, so you should support each other in the future."
They both said in unison, "Got it, Grandma!"
This was the most relaxing night since leaving Jingkanzi Village.
They arrived at Wujiyuan, and their initial nervousness turned into composure, all of which was due to the confidence given by Bai Jingzhi.
There is no shortage of food and drink, no shortage of warm clothes in winter, and after tomorrow, there will be no shortage of housing.
Everything is full of anticipation.
Everyone had a smile on their face, which was different from the previous escape.
The mountains are high and the emperor is far away here, but you can always find a way to survive.
Old Mrs. Bai has been missing her hometown ever since the day she left her homeland. Only at this moment did she feel at ease.
They were the first group of people to come to Wujiyuan, so they could taste the sweetness better than those who came later.
When her old man was still alive, he once said that when you are undecided, look at what people who are better than you do. Once you are calm, everything will go smoothly.
At this time, Gu Tinglou came over and said, "Jingzhi, I have something to tell you."
Bai Jingzhi then came out of Old Lady Bai's arms, "Grandma, I'll go over first."
"Wait! This is what grandma saved. You two sisters can each take half." Old Mrs. Bai took out a few silver ingots from her bosom and gave them to her two granddaughters.
"Okay!" Bai Jingzhi put it away, winked at Bai Yue'e to indicate that she should accept it, and then followed Gu Tinglou to the corner.
"Sixth Grandma, what happened?"
"The fight has started!" Gu Tinglou looked a little excited, "After the fight took place in Ming Wang's territory, we can finally breathe a sigh of relief."
"This is really good news! Do you know what's going on?"
Bai Jingzhi had the idea of building an intelligence network before, and Gu Tinglou has been trying it out in the past few days.
Today's news just happened to have results.
"A few days ago, the troops from Jucheng headed south, arrived in the capital and rested for half a day before heading to the territory of King Ming."
"I know. Didn't they say they rebelled before? Prince Li got angry."
I knew this news two days ago, but I don’t know if it is accurate.
Using birds to spread messages is not very reliable. If they die, all the efforts will be wasted.
These past few days, Bai Jingzhi thought about it for a long time and decided to give up the idea. As for the matter of intelligence, he would think of another way.
"Those soldiers have started fighting with Mingzhou, and they may not stop for some time. However, we don't know the details of the situation, but just this news has exhausted many people."
"There's no need to deliberately use birds to get information in the future. Let's just let nature take its course! Wujiyuan has just started to develop, and others won't notice anything. I just hope that they can fight for a longer time, so that we can find a way out."
As for the people in Mingzhou, it would be better if they could escape here.
