286 Meeting Future Relatives “Miss Shen, this way please.”

Bai Xiaojiu’s voice caused Shen Ruojing to regain her senses.

She followed Bai Xiaojiu and Yun Wei.

The lovers were in the honeymoon phase. When the two of them met, Bai Xiaojiu who had a seriouslook on his face immediately used his pinky to curl around Yun Wei’s fingers.

Yun Wei blushed and immediately retracted her hand while shooting a glare at him.

After that, she gestured, saying that this place was the Bai Manor and her cousin was also beside her.

Bai Xiaojiu looked at Shen Ruojing only to see her gaze staring into the distance. Hence, she grabbedYun Wei’s wrist. “What are you afraid of? Cousin won’t be able to see us.”

Shen Ruojing who had long taken note of their minor actions. “…”

However, compared to Shen Qianhui and Jing Zhen’s public display of affection, the interactionsbetween Yun Wei and Bai Xiaojiu couldn’t be considered anything. She was completely immune to this.

The Bai Manor was very huge, and all of their direct descendants resided here.

The four great families in the capital emphasized on not splitting the family up if the old family leaderwas still present.

Bai Xiaojiu pointed to the third level of the manor and gestured to the third room on the left. He thenwhispered in Yun Wei’s ears, “That is my room, and it is currently being refurbished and renovated. Wewill stay there after our marriage.”

Yun Wei clicked her tongue as she blushed furiously.

Bai Xiaojiu continued, “We can stay outside if you want, but the Bai Family has a rule. The first yearafter our marriage, we have to reside in the Bai Manor first. This is also to let you get closer to myrelatives. Otherwise, you probably won’t recognize all of them if you choose to stay outside the momentafter our marriage.”

Yun Wei nodded shyly.

All of a sudden, Shen Ruojing pointed in the direction where Chu Cichen had vanished and asked,“What is that place?”

Bai Xiaojiu replied, “That’s a bamboo pavilion that belongs to my grandpa. He loves playing chess anddrinking tea there. He would also occasionally entertain guests there.”

It seemed that Old Master Bai was entertaining Chu Cichen now.

Shen Ruojing didn’t know what Chu Cichen came here to discuss. She then lowered her eyelids incontemplation.

At this moment, Bai Xiaojiu instructed the servants to send the gifts Yun Wei had brought over to theroom. He then brought the two of them to the living room to await the arrival of the Bai Family’srelatives.

Time slowly passed by and Fourth Madam Bai appeared. Her cold-looking face seemed a littlenervous, as though she was afraid Yun Wei might embarrass them.

He told her several times not to be nervous.

Yun Wei merely nodded in response.

Not long later, people started arriving in the room. Fourth Madam Bai and Bai Xiaojiu slowly introducedthe people to Yun Wei one by one.

There were a total of four houses in the Bai family. Bai Xiaojiu’s father was Bai Wei’s youngest son, sohe was naturally from the fourth house.

Bai Xiaojiu was an only child and had no siblings. But as for the third house, there were a fewgrandchildren there.

Bai Xiaojiu introduced all of them to Yun Wei, “This is my fourth older cousin from the third house, fiftholder cousin, sixth older cousin, fourth cousin-in-law, seventh younger cousin, ninth younger cousin…”

Yun Wei greeted everyone and sat back down.

Shen Ruojing clicked her tongue. “There are so many people from the third house.”

Yun Wei nodded in agreement.

Bai Xiaojiu immediately spoke in a low voice, “A few of them aren’t the biological children of ThirdAunt…”

After hearing this, Shen Ruojing and Yun Wei exchanged a mutual glance and understood.

It seemed that the Third Madam Bai’s husband was very promiscuous and had a few illegitimatechildren.

But when she thought of the Third Madam Bai’s domineering attitude, Shen Ruojing faintly revealed alook of anticipation, wanting to watch a good show.

She still remembered how Third Madam Bai had made things difficult for them at the shopping mall!

As the few of them conversed, everyone from the main house, saved for the eldest grandson and hiswife, who were Bai Xiaojiu’s eldest cousin and cousin-in-law, had all arrived.

Yun Wei greeted the newcomers once more and Shen Ruojing’s sharp senses detected a problem.

Why did no one from the second house come?

Yun Wei also noticed this point so she cast a glance at Bai Xiaojiu.

Bai Xiaojiu then explained in a soft voice, “My second uncle left the family before I was born and hasyet to return. So, there’s no one from the second house now.”

As he said this, he reminded them in a low voice, “Later when grandma arrives, take note not tomention anything about my second uncle.”

Yun Wei immediately nodded and her expression grew heavy.

Shen Ruojing touched her chin.

There were simply too many Bai Family’s relatives. Just the grandsons and their companions actuallynumbered over twenty!

However, Bai Wei was still considered decent. It was rumored that the Rong Family Leader of the fourinfluential families had mistresses outside. This caused his descendants to take him as an example,and the family atmosphere there wasn’t good at all.

At this moment, Third Madam Bai arrived.

Those who came were the females in the family and those of Bai Xiaojiu’s generation. The male elderswould only come when it was time for the banquet. When the Third Madam entered, her sharp gazeswept past Shen Ruojing as she sneered. “I’ve truly broadened my horizons. I didn’t expect that

someone would be coming here to freeload at a banquet for a new daughter-in-law to get acquaintedwith the relatives.”

After saying that, she went directly to her seat.

Bai Xiaojiu immediately replied, “Third Aunt, Miss Shen is here because grandpa gave her an invitation.She didn’t come here to freeload.”

“Enough. I know that the Old Master dotes on you a lot now and is afraid the woman you love might notbe able to deal with the stress, hence, he decided to send an additional invitation, so she would havesomeone to accompany her…” Third Madam Bai smiled and looked at Yun Wei as she continued,“Speaking of which, the Bai Family has seen many daughter-in-laws before, but this is the first time Isee someone bringing a companion to the introduction banquet. However, I can understand this. Afterall, Yun Wei is from a small place…”

Her tone was filled with mocking.

Fourth Madam Bai calmly said, “This can’t be blamed on our father-in-law. After all, Little Wei broughtthe calligraphy piece he loves most so she definitely needs someone to accompany her in case shemisplaces it.”

After saying that, she glanced at the fifth cousin of Bai Xiaojiu. “Speaking of which, little fifth braggedand said he wanted to replace a Madman calligraphy piece for the Old Master. Have you found it now?”

Bai Xiaojiu’s fifth cousin was Third Madam Bai’s biological son. After hearing this, he immediatelyreplied, “Madman’s works are basically already in the hands of the four great families. How would Ihave the network…”

The remaining words weren’t said due to Third Madam Bai glaring at her son.

Third Madam Bai coldly sneered. “Who knows whether Yun Wei’s Madman calligraphy is real or fake?Even people from our family can’t purchase one, so how could the Yun Family succeed in doing so?That must be a boast, right?”

Yun Wei’s attitude was much cooler now when facing her.

She didn’t say anything, but Fourth Madam Bai spoke up icily, “Won’t you know the answer later? Thirdsis-in-law, why are you in such a hurry?”

Third Madam Bai immediately mocked, “She has yet to marry into the family and you are already soprotective of her. Hehe, those who don’t know the truth might assume that your son marries a princess.But this can’t be blamed on you as this was a marriage personally proposed by the Old master. Even ifshe is grass, you have to treat her like a treasure! You even gave part of your own dowry as herbetrothal gifts.”

She then looked at Yun Wei. “Speaking of which, the Yun Family is truly lucky. Their status would soonrise because you marry into our family. In the future, you have to be filial to your mother-in-law andserve Xiaojiu well. You also have to be grateful to the Old Master because if it wasn’t for him, youwould never be so fortunate your entire life!”

Lastly, she looked at Shen Ruojing. “Look, isn’t this one of the benefits? You brought a friend here andshe can expand her social network. In the future, wouldn’t things be much easier if she wants to dobusiness?!”

Her verbal skills were so great that she could talk all day long.

At this moment at the bamboo pavilion.

Old Master Bai put the proposal plan in his hands down and lifted his head to look at Chu Cichen.“Although your cousin will soon join my family and we can be considered relatives somewhat, since the

Shen family disagreed, it is also impossible for our Bai Family to agree to cooperate with you. The fourgreat families are like branches of the same tree. There’s no need for you to probe anymore.”

Chu Cichen was extremely calm.

He had come to the Bai Family because of Yun Wei, and he also had to give the Bai Family some facenow.

If not, in the future when his business developed to a large-enough scale to threaten the four families,Yun Wei would be implicated.

He took his proposal and lowered his eyelids before laughing. “Since that is the case, I won’t disturbOld Master Bai anymore.”

However, Old Master Bai waved his hands. “Don’t be anxious. Since Yun Wei came to get acquaintedand meet the family members today, why don’t you also join the banquet since you are already here?”

Chu Cichen pondered for a moment.

He hadn’t returned home these few days and he also wasn’t that interested in this introduction banquet.He actually had no idea that Bai Wei came today for the sake of meeting the Bai Family’s relatives.

When Chu Cichen thought of this, he decided to stay to support his cousin. Hence, he replied, “In thatcase, I’ll accept the invitation respectfully then.”

After speaking, he followed Old Master Bai and headed to the banquet up ahead.
