Chapter 58

The next morning, Lady Bai didn't expect that the Li family would really come to propose marriage.

It was Mrs. Li who came with the matchmaker, and they also brought quite a big betrothal gift, all placed in the Bai family's courtyard.

However, Mrs. Li's face didn't look very good.

As soon as the matchmaker saw Lady Bai, she warmly came over.

"Lady Bai, the young master of the Li family is here to propose to Miss Bai Yunxin!"

Lady Bai glanced at Mrs. Li, and eventually still invited them in.

When Bai Yunhan learned that the Li family had come to propose marriage, he was still a little surprised. Previously when he went to find Li Wenxuan, Li Wenxuan insisted on not marrying Bai Yunxin no matter what.

However, now that the Li family came to propose marriage, it was a good thing after all, so he immediately ordered someone to go to the study pavilion to fetch Bai Yunxin and Second Aunt.

In the carriage, Second Aunt still felt a little nervous in her heart.

"Yunxin, didn't this Li Wenxuan previously not want to marry you? How could he suddenly come to propose?"

Bai Yunxin's face was expressionless. The grievances she had suffered at Li Wenxuan's place and in the Bai family over these days had made her grow up a lot.

"Maybe he has figured it out." Bai Yunxin said indifferently.

Li Wenxuan's manhood was severed, so he would never be able to have offspring in the future. And Li Wenxuan was the only child in the Li family.

It wasn't that they only wanted to have one child, but after Li Wenxuan was born, Mr. Li had suffered an injury and could no longer be fertile. This was also one of the reasons why Mr. Li had never taken a concubine. She was now pregnant with Li Wenxuan's child. To ensure the Li family had an heir, Li Wenxuan had to marry her!

Otherwise, the Li family would really die out!

After going through this, Bai Yunxin suddenly realized that men were simply unreliable. They used honeyed words, but once they obtained what they wanted, they would discard women like worn shoes. They could have three wives and four concubines, so how could they truly cherish a woman?

She had been too naive before.

If a woman wasn't ruthless, her status would be unstable.

If she wanted a better life, she could only fight for it herself! In the future, she would be the Li family's main wife, and the Bai family would also fall into her mother's hands. Only then would she have a stronger backing.

As she was thinking, the carriage had already arrived at the Bai family's front gate.

The two got out of the carriage, and Bai Yunxin looked at the plaque "Bai Residence" above the Bai family's front gate. A smile emerged at the corner of her mouth.

She retracted her gaze and went into the courtyard with Second Aunt.

However, Bai Yunxin was brought to the hall, while Second Aunt didn't have the status to enter the hall, so she was taken back to the room.

When she arrived at the hall, Bai Yunxin very cleverly paid her respects to Lady Bai and Mrs. Li.

When Mrs. Li saw Bai Yunxin, a flash of hatred appeared in her eyes.

"Yunxin, the young master of the Li family intends to propose marriage to you. May I ask what you think?" Lady Bai asked deliberately.

"Wenxuan and I are in love, and I hope Mother will approve."

Bai Yunxin didn't avoid mentioning it. After all, there were already rumors about her and Li Wenxuan all over the town.

"Since both children are in love, I have no reason to refuse. Then let's settle this marriage." Lady Bai looked at Mrs. Li and smiled, "Although there was some discord between the Bai family and the Li family before, business competition is normal. I hope our two families can get along well in the future."

No matter how much resentment Mrs. Li felt in her heart at this moment, she still had to put on a smiling face.

"Lady Bai is right. We will be in-laws from now on, so of course we have to get along well."

After everything was settled, Mrs. Li got up to leave.

"Madam, let me see you off." Bai Yunxin stood up and looked at Mrs. Li with a smile.

Mrs. Li glanced at her, barely able to keep the expression on her face. But she still said, "Then I'll have to trouble Miss Bai."

Not until Mrs. Li left the Bai house and was about to get on the carriage did she turn around to look at Bai Yunxin, her face extremely gloomy.

"Miss Bai, you think you'll have good days after marrying into the Li family with these kinds of tricks? You vicious woman! Just wait until you marry into the Li family, I won't let you off!"

Not only was Bai Yunxin not angry at Mrs. Li scolding her, she even smiled and tidied up the clothes on Mrs. Li's chest.

She leaned over and said in a volume that only the two of them could hear, "Madam, if I'm well, your grandson will be well too, otherwise...your Li family...will have no heir!"

"You..." Mrs. Li was so angry at Bai Yunxin's words that her chest heaved violently.

"If Wenxuan had been willing to marry me from the start, I wouldn't have had to do things so extremely."

Bai Yunxin's tone suddenly changed, and she smiled at her, "But don't worry, I'll be a good daughter-in-law and serve you well..."

After Bai Yunxin finished speaking, she took two steps back and bowed to Mrs. Li, "Madam, have a safe trip..." Mrs. Li was rendered speechless by anger. Not until she got on the carriage did her mood finally calm down.

She also didn't expect that Bai Yunxin, who looked gentle and delicate on the outside, actually had such a vicious heart inside!

But for the sake of the Li family having an heir, she could only endure it for now!

Humph, after Bai Yunxin gives birth, she will deal with her slowly!

...

In the Bai family's hall.

Lady Bai's face was also not very good.

"Han, I have already agreed to this marriage between Bai Yunxin and the Li family. I hope you remember what you said." Lady Bai said solemnly.

Bai Yunhan's tone was also not very good. "Mother, I can get to know Miss Chu first, but as for getting married, no matter what I have to marry a woman I like, right?"

Lady Bai thought for a moment. Indeed, she couldn't force him too much either. Her tone softened a little.

"Han, as long as you're willing to get acquainted, you'll definitely find one you like."

Bai Yunhan felt irritated in his heart. He stood up and said, "There are still some matters at the money house. I'll go out for a while first."

Lady Bai's face darkened. She felt that Bai Yunhan's attitude towards her had become worse and worse recently. Could it be that he had found out something?

Just after Bai Yunhan went out, he met Bai Yunxin coming in.

"Brother!" Bai Yunxin went forward and grabbed Bai Yunhan's arm, smiling at him, "Thank you!"

Bai Yunhan also smiled at her. "Yunxin, be careful in everything after you marry into the Li family."

"I understand..."

"I also don't really understand why Li Wenxuan would suddenly come to propose. If he doesn't treat you well in the future, come to me anytime. I'm your brother, and of course I'll stand by your side."

"Okay..." Bai Yunxin lowered her eyes and nodded.

"I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll go out for a while first."

"Alright..." Bai Yunxin let go of Bai Yunhan's arm and smiled, "Brother, I'll make your favorite molten cream puffs tonight to thank you! If not for you, Mother might not have let me marry into the Li family!"

Bai Yunhan patted her head. "Okay...then I'll go first."

Looking at Bai Yunhan's departing figure, Bai Yunxin clenched the poison in her sleeve. Her eyes darkened.

"Brother, I'm sorry..."

As long as Lady Bai was around, her mother would never have good days!
