Chapter 792 Is the old general dead?
When Guo Wenyu heard this, his mind was so big. The eldest young master of the Bai family? Isn’t that Bai Haochen? What is he here to do?
The servant then added: "The eldest young master of the Bai family did not come by himself, but brought a woman, saying that it was his future wife, and brought it to the old man to see it, and he was also asking the old man to decide on their marriage." After the servant said that, he glanced at Guo Wentian and shook his head in his heart. The old man couldn't take care of himself, so he could not care about the affairs of the Bai family.
Sure enough, Guo Wenyu waved his hand: "I asked him to go back and said that the old man was busy with military affairs and had no time to see him."
The servant nodded, turned around and ran out.
Outside the general's mansion, Bai Haochen stood leaning against the carriage with Meiguo. He was lowering his head to comfort Meiguo: "Don't worry, Grandpa will definitely make the decision for us. My mother listened to Grandpa's words the most. As long as Grandpa agreed, she would not dare not let me marry you in."
Mei Guo glanced at him and snorted softly, "Come on, Bai Haochen, what grandpa, who doesn't even let you in the mansion, will he make decisions for you? I don't know what the second wife treats the Guo family, but just because of the Guo family's attitude towards you, I guess they are not much better to the second wife. Fortunately, the second wife always thinks about the Guo family and always sends money to the Guo family. She has been offering money like an ancestor for more than ten years, but the others don't take her seriously at all."
Bai Haochen waved his hands repeatedly, "It's not like this, absolutely not like this. Meiguo, you're thinking too much. The Guo family is really good to us. Although my mother has been giving money to the Guo family, those are not for nothing. Without the support of the Guo family, how could the three of us stand firm in the Duke's Mansion? You don't know my stepfather. He always likes interests. Family affection is not bullshit to him. So we have to find a backer in the future, and the Guo family is a ready-made backer."
Meiguo sneered at this, "I'm still a backer. I have to go to my wife's house to spread the word before I can enter. How could I become a backer like this? I'm afraid it's not the kind of mountain that falls down once I rely on it?"
"No, no, there was no need to be communicated in the past, today is an exception."
"Oh?" Mei Guo was intrigued, "Then what exception could lead to this result? Could it be that something happened to the Guo family? You guess what happened to the Guo family? Could it be that shameful?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Bai Haochen was so scared that he quickly covered Meiguo's mouth, "What do you want to say to go home and say whatever you want to go back to our house. But this is at the gate of Guo's mansion, and if someone accidentally hears it, it will be done."
"Don't?" Mei Guo laughed, "What's the end? The Guo family can kill me just one sentence? You told them just now that I am your future wife. If they dare to kill your future wife, then the second wife has really raised a group of ungrateful wolves over the years." She stretched out her hand and twisted Bai Haochen hard in her sleeve. "The reason I wanted to come to the Guo Mansion was to see how grand the General's Mansion was, but I never thought that Guo Wentian would fulfill our marriage. Bai Haochen, I didn't say I wanted to marry you."
"Don't you marry me?" Bai Haochen was sweating all over his head, "Meiguo, how could you not marry me? We have agreed that I am the matchmaker who is just marrying you and welcome you into the mansion to be the eldest grandmother."
Mei Guo turned his head to look at him, "The matchmaker is a formal marriage? How can a matchmaker marry? Bai Haochen, the major marriage matters are focused on the orders of parents and matchmakers, and I am just a slave of the Bai family. Where do you, the matchmaker, go to the Ming Dynasty? Where will you marry the right marriage?"
With one sentence, Bai Haochen was speechless, and his mouth was opened and closed several times before he could barely squeeze out a question: "What should I do? I only know that your mother has passed away, what about your father? Or do we invite him into the mansion? Or do I buy him a house and let him live in the capital? Meiguo, I rarely hear you mention your father, where is he?"
Meiguo lowered her head, a layer of mist appeared in her eyes, but it quickly dissipated. She told Bai Haochen: "My father is far away, and I don't know if he is still alive, but even if he is alive, you will not be able to bring him into Beijing."
She raised her head, and there was no fog in her eyes, but she still looked cold and heartless.
Bai Haochen wanted to tell her that she was sincere, but Mei Guo didn't give him a chance because the servants of the Guo family had already run out and bowed in front of them, and then said, "Young Master Bai, I'm really sorry. The old man is handling military affairs and it's not convenient to meet guests. Please come again the next day!"
Bai Haochen subconsciously glanced at Meiguo, and sure enough, he saw a strong sarcasm in Meiguo's eyes.
He was unwilling to be embarrassed in front of the woman, so he asked, "Then I want to see my uncle. One of the three uncles should have time to see me, right? If I don't help, I will meet my uncle and aunt. No matter who it is, I must enter the mansion today."
After saying this, the Guo family suddenly rushed up to the dozen guards and blocked Bai Haochen strictly outside the mansion. The servant who had just passed the message said, "Master Bai, I think about your relatives with our Guo family. I advise you to have a degree in everything. You have to master this degree before speaking and doing things again. Otherwise, not only will things not be done, but it will also cause trouble. The old general said in the mansion that if he didn't see him today, he wouldn't see you, and no one would see you. You are destined to be unable to enter this mansion today, so don't be futile anymore, so as not to hurt the harmony between the two families."
After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation, "Mr. Bai, please!"
Bai Haochen was said to have no face at all, and in the end, Mei Guo got on the carriage first, and then he followed him into it.
The carriage from Duke Wen Guo's mansion left the Guo family in shame, which made Bai Haochen very embarrassed. He felt depressed and wanted to eat candy more and more. Meiguo didn't stop him this time, and he touched the candy and handed it to him.
Just when Bai Haochen had eaten the candy ball and was so excited that he was so excited that Mei Guo lifted the curtain of the car and told the coachman: "Stop the car, I'll go down and buy some snacks. The eldest master fell asleep. You pull the car aside and I'll come back soon."
The coachman was unaware of this, so he followed her instructions and pulled the car aside. Meiguo got out of the car and indeed walked towards a snack shop.
This dim sum shop is very popular and there are many people queuing up. Because dim sum is famous and expensive, ordinary people cannot afford it. Basically, the maids from wealthy families come out to buy food for their masters.
When the people in the queue saw Meiguo coming, some nodded politely, some looked up and down, and some simply came up to talk to her. A little maid asked her happily: "Which girl are you?"
Mei Guo bowed slightly, "I am a slave of Duke Wen Guo's Mansion and serve the eldest son. Today I accompanied the eldest son to visit relatives at the General's Mansion. Because I didn't let him in, I stood outside for a long time. The eldest son said he was a little hungry, so I got out of the car and bought some snacks."
As soon as these words came out, the listeners turned their heads to look at the side of the road. Sure enough, they saw a carriage parked there, and the sign hanging outside the carriage had the word "white" engraved on it.
These are all maids from noble families, each of whom is like a talented person and likes gossip on weekdays. Whenever you take advantage of the opportunity to buy, your favorite thing is to inquire about gossip, and then go back and tell them to your master to make them happy.
What Mei Guo said today came out with a quick breath, so someone asked: "Why did the general admit that he had not been allowed to enter? Your Bai family is intimate with the General's Mansion! If I remember correctly, the mistress of the Duke Wen Guo's mansion is the granddaughter of the old general Guo! Your eldest son is the biological son of the mistress. He is really a relative, but he didn't even enter the Guo's mansion?"
Mei Guo sighed softly, "I don't know what's going on. Anyway, I was blocked by the servants of the Guo family at the door. No matter how my eldest son asked, he would not let him in no matter what he said."
Meiguo's words were full of gossip, which made these little maids speculate. It was finally Meiguo's turn to buy snacks. Before leaving, she muttered casually: "Is something wrong with the General's Mansion?"
It is this sentence that the gossip points are sublimated again.
The next morning, Da Ye knocked on Bai Haochen's door, pounding, pounding, as strong as possible.
Mei Guo kicked Bai Haochen to the ground in annoyance, "Open the door!"
Bai Haochen quickly went out to open the door for Da Ye. As soon as the door opened, Da Ye broke in directly, grabbed Bai Haochen's collar and asked, "Did you go to the General's Mansion yesterday? What happened to the General's Mansion?"
Bai Haochen just woke up and was still confused. He was a little anxious when Da Ye yelled like this, and he got angry when he replied: "How do I know what happened to his family? I went to greet the old man with a hot heart. As a result, they didn't even let me in. I just don't care about the broken relatives."
Da Ye was so angry that he reached out to hit someone, but Bai Haochen hid. At this time, Mei Guo's voice came from inside the house: lazy, "The mistress of the Duke Wenguo Mansion, he broke into his grown-up son's house early in the morning to make a fuss. Your son is not dressed yet. Are you not embarrassed? Even if you ignore your face, you have to take care of the Duke Wenguo Mansion's face."
Da Ye was so angry that he almost carried it over, but Bai Haochen also said, "That's right, mother, I haven't even put on my clothes well! You've come too early."
"I'll ask what's wrong with your General's Mansion?" Da Ye began to roar. She wanted to rush in and tear Meiguo, but she stopped after taking a step. No, because she hadn't asked for any advantage from Meiguo since Meiguo moved into Fuxi Courtyard. Every time she arrived fiercely, she would leave in a mess. This reminded her of the days when Bai Xingyan was neglected to the hall. Meiguo was also taking care of her. It was from then on that she realized that there was such a powerful girl in the Duke's Mansion.
