322 Dispute (2)
By doing a count, it was about two months plus, right?
Bai Shanshan had been practicing dance and stage presence during this period, so she didn’t appear in the public’s eyes. But then many people suspected that she didn’t slim down and just went for cosmetic surgery instead.
Matriarch Bai viewed Bai Shanshan’s video a few times. From her voice and mannerism, she confirmed that it was Bai Shanshan. After that, she exploded in anger. “The artists nowadays are all so shameless! Her surname is also Bai, what rights does she have to be surnamed ‘Bai’?”
After saying that, she directly spoke, “Go and ask her if she still wants to remain in the entertainment industry! If she wants to, tell her to directly give the slot to Little Tong!”
Matriarch Bai grew increasingly angry the more she spoke.
When she thought of her actions earlier, she found herself ridiculous.
Just because they resembled each other, she actually thought that young woman was her son’s daughter.
Moreover, that face was actually created by cosmetic surgery!
Shen Wanying’s gaze flashed and she suddenly sighed. “Grandma, speaking of which, we still have a kinship with their family. It isn’t too good to press them too hard.”
Matriarch Bai immediately started scolding, “What kinship? How can we have a kinship with such people?”
Shen Wanying then explained, “Have you forgotten about Xiaojiu? His fiancee Miss Yun Wei and the two brothers of the Chu Family are cousins…Speaking of which, Bai Shanshan is Chu Cimo’s wife too. With the Yun Family in the center, we shouldn’t fall out with the Chu Family.”
After she said this, Matriarch Bai laughed coldly and commanded the butler, “Make a call to Bai Xiaojiu.”
The butler called Bai Xiaojiu and passed the phone to Matriarch Bai.
Bai Xiaojiu picked up the phone very quickly, “Hmm, Grandma?”
Matriarch Bai immediately spoke, “Bai Xiaojiu, go and settle your in-laws’ relatives! If the Chu Family really don’t know what’s good for them, don’t blame your grandmother for not giving your fiancee face!”
After she finished scolding, she tossed the phone to the butler.
Bai Xiaojiu was stunned. “Grandma, did something happen?”
Matriarch Bai basically couldn’t be bothered to reply to him.
The butler then explained everything that happened in the kindergarten to Bai Xiaojiu.
Bai Xiaojiu. “…”
This sudden trouble fell from the sky and he really wasn’t able to react in time.
After hanging up, Bai Xiaojiu’s expression turned cold.
Yun Wei was his fiancee, but his grandma simply didn’t care for her dignity!
If he helped the Chu Family, it would show that he supported outsiders and cause the hearts of those in the Bai Family to turn cold.
Even if this matter was brought up to Old Master Bai, Matriarch Bai had logic on her side!
Bai Xiaojiu then rubbed his forehead.
Yun Wei who was currently on a date with him couldn’t help frowning. “Why do I feel that your grandmother is being unreasonable? What does this matter has got to do with you?”
There were two children but only one slot.
For this matter, both parties had logic on their sides. Matriarch Bai and Dean Lin both understood that the fourth slot belonged to them. But would Bai Shanshan and Chu Cimo simply give the slot away and accept this?
From their point of view, they did no wrong. Chu Xiaoqi was a child too, so why must Chu Xiaoqi suffer because of this?
Hence, for this matter, the fewer the number of people implicated, the better.
Right now, Matriarch Bai wanted Bai Xiaojiu to handle this matter. If he did so, he would not win points from either side, and one of the parties would dislike him!
Bai Xiaojiu sighed. “Ever since my second uncle left home, grandmother’s temperament became strange. During the gathering every year, she would show us second uncle’s photograph and tell us if we meet him when we are outside, we should bring him home…However, I feel that it should be the eldest sis-in-law’s idea that grandmother wants me to settle this.”
Yun Wei frowned. She soon understood after contemplating it slightly.
If Bai Xiaojiu helped Bai Yitong, the Chu Family would surely be angry. Her Yun Family was originally the weakest one among them, and the Chu Family was their reliance in the capital. If he did this, it would be tantamount to pushing the Chu Family away.
However, if Bai Xiaojiu helped Chu Xiaoqi, Old Master Bai might feel offended. From Old Master Bai’s perspective, Bai Xiaojiu shouldn’t help outsiders even if it meant helping his wife’s family, as it would cause Bai Yitong, a direct descendant of the Bai Family, to feel aggrieved.
What a hot potato!
Yun Wei always wanted a good opponent, but at this moment, she felt a headache.
She finally understood why people said that the waters of the capital were deep. These influential families all had a kinship connecting them, and a minor matter would cause huge havoc!
Yun Wei felt heartache for Bai Xiaojiu. “Your eldest brother and his wife really keep making trouble for you!”
“…”
Bai Xiaojiu was clad in a white suit, and his face had an aggrieved expression. “So, Weiwei…you have to help me.”
Yun Wei. “…”
She helplessly took her phone out, “I’ll give my second cousin a call, so we can talk about this face to face. I’m sure he will understand.”
After speaking, she called Chu Cimo and said that she had a matter that she needed to speak with him and Bai Shanshan face to face.
Chu Cimo replied, “We are at the Bai Residence. I’ll give you the address, so you guys can come over.”
Chu Cimo then sent the location to Yun Wei and Bai Xiaojiu through WeChat. After putting the phone down, he placed a black-and-white portrait on a wall together with Bai Shanshan.
Now that the Chu Family had relocated to the capital, Chu Cimo and Bai Shanshan also came over. And they definitely wouldn’t leave Bai Shanshan’s mother alone in Sea City.
Hence, Matriarch Chu bought a tiny three-story villa not far from the Chu Manor. Currently, Mother Bai was staying there.
Father Bai’s deathversary would be a few days later.
Although something bad had happened in the kindergarten today, Chu Cimo and Bai Shanshan still chose to rush here to help Mother Bai hang Father Bai’s portrait, setting up his tablet.
Bai Shanshan then spoke in a soft voice after hearing Chu Cimo’s words, “It won’t be too good if they come here, right?”
“There’s nothing bad about it.” Chu Cimo stared at Father Bai’s portrait and continued, “This is my father-in-law. They are my cousin and cousin-in-law, so there’s nothing wrong for them to offer incense to him.”
