Chapter 164: Let's see if our two families still have a chance to become relatives (two-in-one monthly ticket request)
After Bai Qing woke up, she found that Li Yang was gone.
Thinking about last night, I still can't help laughing.
She quite likes the way Li Yang always makes lame excuses, because that way no one is embarrassed.
After washing up, he put away his nursing uniform and made a phone call.
Half an hour later, she met a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties in a teahouse.
The other party said in a friendly manner: "Qingqing, just call me Second Uncle."
But Bai Qing said calmly, "No need for that. We are just discussing a business deal. I want to place my parents' tablets in the Bai family ancestral hall. You can set some conditions."
Bai Chong looked a little embarrassed.
At the beginning, the Bai family didn’t have much interest in Bai Qing. After all, Bai Qing was of little help to the current Bai family.
But after meeting him today, Bai Chong had other ideas.
Bai Qing is too pretty... Even the girls of the third generation of the Bai family don’t look this stunning.
Beauty can also be used as a weapon as long as it is stunning enough.
He planned to get close to Bai Qing. Bai Qing probably wanted to return to the Bai family. As long as she could arrange a marriage for the Bai family, he would definitely be able to convince the old man about this matter.
However, Bai Qing acted very cold from the start and didn't want to make friends at all.
He could only say, "Qingqing, although the threshold of the Bai family's ancestral hall is not high, it is still quite troublesome. Since you are here, you might as well go to our house and sit down. After all, my words alone don't count."
Bai Qing said, "If my parents were still alive, you might worry about your power being taken away. Now that they are gone, I am only in the ancestral hall in name only. I don't believe that there will be so many problems."
Bai Chong hurriedly explained: "The process of entering the ancestral hall must be carried out by a ceremony, and relatives and friends must be invited as witnesses. You also know that this is not so easy for the old man to accept. The old man's original intention was to give him another chance after retirement, but he didn't expect that fate would play tricks on him, and Qingyang couldn't hold on for a few more years..."
When saying this, Bai Chong looked sad, as if he was very sorry for Bai Qingyang's untimely death.
Indeed, almost no one knew that Bai Qingyang was Bai Jingxuan's illegitimate son. Even if someone could find out, someone with that identity would not personally step in to embarrass Bai Jingxuan.
But Bai Qing said: "There is no need to hold any ceremony. Just write my parents into the family tree, put the tablets on them, and then I will pay homage to them."
Bai Chong said helplessly: "This is against the rules!"
"One hundred million!" Bai Qing said the number calmly.
Bai Chong's eyebrows jumped. He was very excited about this number.
The Bai family needs money. After all, the current control is becoming more and more strict, and the previous money-making methods are no longer useful. The family has no one who is good at making money, so they can basically just sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor.
No matter what kind of family it is, problems will arise under the impact of the times.
In the past, power represented money, but now it no longer works.
Those families that can make money are becoming more and more powerful, while those that cannot make money are gradually losing their high ground.
The most typical example is the Zhao family, who have now let a girl who has not even graduated from a technical college take charge of the family, just because she can get money.
However, according to his investigation, Bai Qing should be out of money.
Green Water Group is no longer valuable now. Even if Bai Qing has tens of millions in her hands, she is just a chicken that can't lay eggs. She has no ability to make money.
When the Green Water Group was making money in the past, his family didn't need money. Plus, his father had already promised everything he could in order to go to Beijing, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people helping him.
The consequence is that you owe a lot of favors.
Fortunately, Bai Qingyang fell in love with a girl at that time. After the girl’s family learned about the situation, they took the initiative to help pay off the debt, allowing the old man to go to Beijing with peace of mind.
However, this matter eventually went astray. In order to appease shareholders, Bai Qingyang gave up most of his interests, while some people wanted not only the political achievements brought by the Green Water Group, but also the benefits brought by the Green Water Group, and did not care about the life and death of Bai Qingyang's family at all.
In their words, Bai Qingyang's family had been sold out by Bai Jingxuan for twenty-four years.
Before the time comes, Bai Qingyang and his family will work for them.
He also believed that Bai Qing could come up with 100 million, but... compared to a one-time deal, he still valued a permanent marriage more.
The Bai family is currently short of money, but the most important thing is the lack of support.
There are two useless people in the second generation, and few in the third generation can stand up. They all rely on an old man who will retire in a few years. Even if the wind blows hard from below, it can't make much difference.
Bai Chong said seriously: "Qingqing, you called last night, and no matter how unpopular the item was, your family would deliver it to you as soon as possible. You should also be aware of the strength of the family in Beijing. Don't be too resistant to the family. I think you can try to integrate into the family."
Bai Qing still had no expression on her face. "Didn't I spend one million to buy that dress last night? But you guys refused to give it to me before."
Bai Qing has no good feelings towards the entire Bai family, and from some small details it can be seen that the Bai family at this time is strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
She just wanted to fulfill her parents' last wishes, and that was all she could do in her life.
Bai Chong did not feel embarrassed at all and continued, "Last night you suddenly asked for something like that. I was a little hesitant, but I didn't agree to it right away out of caution."
As for the one million, he didn't even mention it.
After all, he also has to support his family, and his family can't give him much money now. One million is enough for his family to eat and drink well for several years.
"Then it's 100 million. I can deposit it into my account anytime."
The money in Bai Qing's hand was earned by Li Yang.
She has always regarded that money as Li Yang's own wealth, but now there is really no other way, so she has to use it first.
At worst, she can pay it back slowly. Anyway, she owes Li Yang a lot. In the next few decades, she will pay it back when she finds a chance.
After all, she is not very good at making money. Although both songs are good, the income is not particularly high. At most three or four million a year, which is definitely not enough to pay off the debts.
Fortunately, I am young and beautiful... Hehe, I have seen some nice clothes recently, and I will be fascinated by Li Yang.
Bai Chong said earnestly: "Qingqing, as long as you can get the family's approval and return to the family, your parents' tablets will naturally be placed in the family ancestral hall. Why do you have to make things difficult for us?"
"Heh... Is it difficult? If it's difficult, forget it!"
Bai Qing hadn't even sat down after she came in. Since they couldn't come to an agreement, she was ready to leave.
She felt that Bai Chong would definitely be tempted by the 100 million, as it was a price he could not refuse.
But if he is hesitating and refusing to agree now, either he is trying too hard to save face or he has other intentions.
What else could she want?
Green Water Group is now as dead as can be. As everyone knows, she doesn't have much money.
When I called last night, Bai Chong clearly acted like a stranger, but now he is so enthusiastic, there must be something going on.
Seeing Bai Qing was about to leave, Bai Chong hurriedly said, "Qingqing, you finally came to Beijing, why don't you come to my house and have a seat? The old man also knows about this, and he is waiting for you at home at noon. If you don't go back with me, I won't be able to explain."
"Um?"
Would Bai Jingxuan be so kind?
Bai Chong saw Bai Qing hesitated and continued, "After all, the matter concerning your parents still has to be decided by the old man. Even if I agree here, there is nothing I can do if the old man can't get past him. The old man should be in a good mood today. You can go and chat with him for a few minutes, and maybe things will work out."
Bai Qing frowned and said, "Okay!"
Her parents' last wishes are basically the only thing in her life. She won't think about or care about anything else.
Because it has been bought out to Li Yang.
Bai Chong was delighted and called home immediately.
Half an hour later, Bai Qing arrived at Songbai Garden.
This is a large house.
When she was a child, she had never heard of her grandfather, nor did she think that she had a grandfather.
Everything she knew started with that phone number, which was also the only relic of her father.
As soon as I entered Songbai Garden and walked a few steps, I saw a lot of people inside, with people in all positions.
There were cleaning staff in charge of the final stages, and of course people from the Bai family, who looked at her curiously.
There are adults and children.
The youngest child looks to be only two or three years old, while the older ones are already seven or eight years old.
There are more people in the Bai family than she imagined.
Songbai Garden was smaller than she had imagined.
After just walking through three corridors, she arrived at the main hall, which was not even as big as her villa in Jiangcheng.
Moreover, the corridors here look exquisite, but they are actually quite compact. It is easy for two people walking side by side to bump shoulders with each other. If you meet someone on the road, one of you has to turn sideways.
Bai Chong led the way in front, and there was no one in the main hall at this time.
When they got there, Bai Chong said, "Qingqing, sit here for a while. I'll go call the old man out."
"Yeah, okay."
Bai Qing was not very curious about this place, not even as curious as she was about how many hairs Li Yang had on his body.
…
Bai Jingxuan was in his study and already knew that Bai Qing was coming.
He waited until Bai Chong came to him before asking, "Why did you bring her back? I have already repaid all the favors by helping her get revenge this time. She has nothing to do with our Bai family."
Bai Chong hurriedly said, "Dad, I just want to share your worries. After all, everything at home is on your shoulders. As your son, I can only worry and can't help even if I want to..."
When he said this, Bai Jingxuan's face changed.
This son can only talk polite words, but when it comes to actually doing things, he has no ability at all!
Why didn't he study during those years when I was away? If he had studied hard and laid a solid foundation, he wouldn't have been unable to find a place after I came back.
Born to be a waste! And you still have the nerve to say you want to share my worries.
But he was old, and even if his son was useless, he could only rely on his son to take care of him in his old age. So he suppressed his anger and asked patiently, "Is it related to her?"
"Yes, I saw Bai Qing for the first time today, and I was stunned by her appearance..."
"Um?"
"Dad, don't get me wrong. I am her uncle after all, and I am almost fifty years old... What I want to say is that she is definitely the most suitable bargaining chip for marriage. Aren't you trying to get together with the Zhao family recently?"
Bai Jingxuan thought for a while: "The Zhao family has indeed been trying to turn things around recently. Not only has Zhao Tianlin emerged, but Zhao Xiangnu, who was picked up a few years ago, is also a genius. One inside and one outside, they can basically guarantee that the Zhao family can smoothly inherit the power position. Zhao Tianlin is only 28 years old, and Zhao Xiangnu is only 22 years old..."
Bai Jingxuan was jealous of the Zhao family. Three years ago, both the Zhao family and the Bai family were in a period of transition. Then Zhao Tianlin suddenly emerged and made great achievements at such a young age, and was promoted a lot.
Just that part represents that a strong foundation has been established.
The Bai family is large, and the two sons had their children early. Family planning was not strict at that time, so there are four grandsons and three granddaughters.
In recent years, my grandchildren have started to get married one after another, and each of them regards having a baby as more important than anything else.
After all, the grandchildren are really untalented. Apart from giving birth to children, they are of almost no use to the family.
When it comes to his great-grandchildren's generation, Bai Jingxuan hopes to cultivate a few good talents. The only problem is that he is old and does not have enough time.
The decline of the Bai family is almost a foregone conclusion.
Bai Chong said: "Dad, Zhao Tianlin is not married yet..."
Bai Jingxuan sighed and said, "Let's go and take a look."
He really never cared about what Bai Qing looked like. Even for his son Bai Qingyang, he mostly treated her as a bargaining chip. At most, he would miss her a little in his dreams when he saw his other two sons and grandchildren were not doing well.
That's all.
Even though he knew Bai Qingyang was dead, he didn't dare to do anything. He just wanted to give an explanation for this matter when he retired.
Ten minutes later, Bai Jingxuan saw Bai Qing.
With just one glance, he knew that his son Bai Qingyang had left him a treasure.
…
Xiangnu felt very strange. Li Yang actually wanted to treat her to a meal?
The sun rises from the west!
This guy, when did he not want her to spend money when they met? He would find excuses on WeChat whenever he had nothing to do. No matter what festival it was, he could always find an excuse to get her to send him a red envelope.
But those excuses sound quite reasonable.
On last month's Arbor Day, a completely unrelated holiday, Li Yangfei said that he went out to plant trees. He also talked about how a tree he planted would bring hope to all mankind, and hoped that the sisters would reward him. He would make more contributions to the world in the future.
Also, the Labor Day was warmed up a few days ago, saying that the life of a worker is the most glorious, and he cheered for the life of a worker.
There is another very important point for dinner today, which is not far from her home.
When she arrived at the place, she looked around and prepared to turn around and leave.
Because she saw that this restaurant was not far away opposite Songbai Garden, and Li Yang was sitting near the floor-to-ceiling window, so he could just see Songbai Garden.
Combined with the photos he sent her early in the morning, her intuition told her that this meal was not a must.
However, when Li Yang saw her coming, he ran out and shouted, "Sister Xiangzhi, now that you are here, why are you turning back? It's unlucky to turn back after eating."
Xiangnu: "..."
Seeing you is unlucky! And today, even the name has changed, which makes it clear that something bad is going to happen.
She smiled and said, "I remembered that I left something behind. Wait here for a while and I'll come back after I get it."
Li Yang waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, since you don't want to have this meal, I have nothing more to say. By the way, as Jiang Banxia's agent, I formally notify Wanliu Capital that the cooperation between Ms. Jiang Banxia and Wanliu Capital will end here..."
Xiangnu glared at Li Yang. Wasn't she just making an excuse? This guy was so shameless.
She knew that this guy was always ruthless, and Jiang Banxia really listened to him.
"Well, I just thought about it, it's not something important, it's not as important as eating your meal."
"Hahaha, I told you that you are not the kind of careless person. Today's meal is easy to arrange, just order whatever you want..."
Xiang Nu said unhappily, "It's a ramen restaurant, what can I order randomly?"
"That can't be helped. There's only one like this one around here."
"Who told you that? I know a private restaurant. Most people don't know where it is. But I'm familiar with the place and you don't need to make a reservation. Do you want me to take you there to try it? It's the imperial chef..."
"You treat?" Li Yang asked tentatively.
Xiangnu: "..."
Forget it, let’s just have ramen. It’s already good enough to have this thing for free.
She really didn't know why Li Yang was so stingy and miserly even though he clearly had a lot of money in his hands.
This guy is very weird.
Li Yang really fulfilled his promise. He allowed Xiangnu to order whatever he wanted in the restaurant, even if a meal of ramen cost 580 yuan, and he didn't even frown.
The main thing is that we can keep an eye on the gate of Songbai Garden from here.
When Bai Qing went to see Bai Chong, he followed her the whole time. It wasn't because he felt there was a risk of being framed, but simply because he thought Bai Qing was a little naive.
Bai Qing is not a scheming person. Her true nature will be revealed once she is touched, and she will be exposed if you just ask her a few words.
Unlike Jiang Banxia, who has a very dark heart.
It's better to have a black heart, because a black heart won't be bullied.
"Let me ask you something. Is this the only gate to Songbai Garden?"
Li Yang asked before he even started eating.
“I guess so.”
Xiangnu replied absentmindedly.
"What do you mean by 'count it as'?"
"The Bai family's property used to be quite large, but they later sold more than half of it, leaving only this little bit. The former back door is now blocked by a wall and has nothing to do with his family."
"Tsk tsk, is there anyone who dares to take over Bai Jingxuan's house?"
"What's wrong with Bai Jingxuan? Bai Jingxuan also has people in Beijing who he can't afford to offend. By the way, the other half are from Xiumu's family. How about I help you call Xiumu out? She likes to eat ramen, but I don't like it that much..."
“Hehehe…”
Li Yang will definitely not let anyone go.
What's the use of Xiumu's family? Xiumu is not like a minister's slave.
Xiangnu now holds a very high position in the Zhao family. Xiumu has broken up with his family, so it’s useless.
When the ramen arrived, Xiangnu hurriedly asked, "Tell me what's going on first, otherwise I won't dare to eat this bowl of noodles."
She had never thought in her life that she would be afraid of a bowl of noodles.
Li Yang smiled and picked up some coriander for her, saying, "It's nothing serious, I just want to go to Songbai Garden for a stroll, but no one knows me, so I found an acquaintance and asked you to take me in for a walk."
Xiang Nu quickly covered his bowl with his hands: "Are you kidding? That's someone's private residence. Why should I take you in?"
"My girlfriend has been in there for almost half an hour, and I'm in a hurry to find someone. Anyway, the bowl of noodles has been served, if you don't want to eat it, just take it away. You have to help me with this!"
Xiangnu: "..."
How can this bastard be so shameless? He has to help with things without eating a single bite?
"How did Jiang Banxia get involved with the Bai family?"
"Not her."
"oh."
She just asked casually because she was just chatting with Jiang Banxia.
I just want to see if this guy dares to admit it.
Facts have proved that a shameless person is invincible, and Li Yang is really not shy about it at all.
Even if it’s just a female friend of yours.
Li Yang said seriously: "Xiang Nu, don't make trouble for me. Don't think I don't know what you were thinking last night. I'm afraid you're hoping that Jiang Banxia and I will break up quickly so as not to affect your plan. I'm telling you the truth. We can't split at all."
Xiangnu's current status is closely related to Jiang Banxia.
The more money Jiang Banxia helps her make, the higher her status in the Zhao family.
Once Jiang Banxia stops helping her make money, and when her money is all gone, the Zhao family will replace her.
But Jiang Banxia couldn't control her emotions because Li Yang was there.
Otherwise, there are too many people in the world who want to control Jiang Banxia, and it has always been Li Yang who releases his aura everywhere.
It was only after she took charge of the Zhao family that she gained control of some special channels.
As soon as she got hold of those channels, she investigated Li Yang thoroughly.
Then……
There is nothing more to say, because Li Yang is a very weird guy, especially his father Li Likun is even weirder.
He is a farmer and has hardly lived in a big city all his life, but he has so much money in his account.
It's hidden too deeply. No one dares to take action until it's completely figured out.
Xiangnu would rather Jiang Banxia be an independent individual so that the two sides can continue to cooperate.
With Li Yang's presence, who knows if this guy will do something outrageous to make Jiang Banxia give up cooperating with them.
Xiangnu looked at the ramen on the table and said, "How about this, let's go in now, otherwise it's past dinner time and I really don't have a suitable excuse."
"Why?"
"How can anyone come to visit in the afternoon? They always come in the morning. If you don't go, don't blame me for not helping you in the afternoon."
"Go! Go! Go!"
Li Yang wanted to see what Bai Qing was up to, as she even dared to lie to her own husband.
There must be punishment! A severe punishment is necessary!
Xiangnu stood up and said, "Then I'll make a phone call."
…
Bai Chong received the call because he played the role of butler in the Bai family.
There are a lot of things to do, but not much power. After all, the Bai family doesn't have much money.
When he received Xiangnu's call, he was stunned for a moment.
When Bai Chong heard that Xiang Nu was going to visit with one of his younger brothers, he quickly said, "We are really flattered that our eldest niece is coming. It just so happens that one of my nieces is also here. You can come and see if there is still a chance for our two families to become relatives."
