The Bai family's courtyard!
Bai Zheng, the Master of the Bai family, had not gone out for nearly a month. At this moment, he was sitting in the middle of the courtyard, looking at Bai Xi kneeling on the ground in front of him.
"Have you met the members of the Yun Family?" Bai Zheng lowered his eyebrows and eyes, and his tone showed that he had experienced many vicissitudes of life.
More than 80 years old.
Even those who practiced martial arts couldn't resist the torture of time.
What's more, when he was young, because he participated in the battle, he had many injuries on his body.
Usually, he didn't feel anything, but as he grew older, his wounds began to attack. His body was getting worse day by day, and he was able to walk last month relying on his crutch. He didn't need anyone's help, but now, his body was unable to leave the wheelchair, and his mental state was also in a state of dejection.
"Master, I've seen you," Bai Xi said respectfully.
"What did the Yun Family say?" Bai Zheng asked.
"The engagement will be held in advance at the end of this month. Ten days later, on a weekend, it will be held in the Yunhua Prefecture of the Yun Family. At that time, all four Patriarchs of the Gu Family will be present. The Patriarchs of the four families in Capital City will also be invited, and the Kong Family will be invited as well. The family is so powerful that it can be said that there is no one left. It has given enough face to the Bai Family."
"Do you have a great deal of face?"
Bai Zheng suddenly opened his mouth and interrupted Bai Xi.
"The reason why we chose to marry the Yun Family was to protect ourselves. On the matter of the Kong Family, we chose the wrong side and offended the Shen Family and the other three families. Before these families decided to make a decision on the decision of the family. If we couldn't get the full support of the Yun Family, then our Bai Family's position would be precarious.
Speaking of this, Bai Zheng looked down at Bai Xi.
"According to family rules, you should have died long ago, but now the family is using people. You have a good relationship with Yun Family's housekeeper, Braxton. You need a middleman to connect the two families' affairs, so I left you alive temporarily. Don't think that you are really fine. After all, the Yun family is an ancient family. He can't directly intervene in the affairs of the outside world. If the marriage didn't achieve the effect as you said, I would still sacrifice your life to worship your ancestors, and make the decision to atone for your mistakes. Do you understand?"
"I, I understand!"
Bai Xi pressed his head against the ground, not even daring to breathe heavily.
"Taozi, push me back to the house."
Bai Zheng called out in a low voice. Tracy, who had been standing on one side, came over to take the wheelchair and pushed Bai Zheng to the lounge.
When she left, Tracy looked back at Bai Xi.
Just as he was about to meet Bai Xi's hateful gaze, he frowned. Bai Xi immediately put his head down again and did not dare to move.
