Chapter 748: Waking up
When he returned to the Houfu, he was stunned for a long time, and then he remembered Bai Zhenzhu and Mrs. Liu.
He immediately called someone to ask: “What is Bai Zhenzhu’s doing?”
Si Fu was taken aback for a moment, he doesn’t know who Pei Qinghan was talking about.
“Houye, there is no person called Bai Zhenzhu in our house!”
Pei Qinghan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and firmly said: “It’s the eldest miss.”
Si Fu then came to understand and hurriedly replied: “The Eldest Miss has been in the yard these days. She came to see you twice when you were unconscious. But it’s so strange that she didn’t come when you are awake!”
Pei Qing coldly snorted: “Even if she wants to come, will she dare? Go and bring her over.”
Sifu hurriedly responded: “Yes.” He turned around and walked a few steps. But then he remembered that the second young lady gave him silvers, so he stopped and turned to face Pei Qinghan, then said: “Houye, Madam Xiang has been locked in the firewood room for several days now. And that Mama’s family has come in here to cause trouble several times. What should we do about this?”
Pei Qinghan waved his hand: “Keep them shut first, don’t let them die. It’s still useful to keep them.” After meeting Dongfang Wan, he will let these two people testify for him. In those years, he was indeed cheated by them. If these two people die, then there will be no proof.
Si Fu didn’t dare to say anything more and hurriedly retired.
Bai Zhenzhu was soon called over to Pei Qinghan’s place.
Bai Zhenzhu came prepared. Before Pei Qinghan could speak, she knelt in front of Pei Qinghan, knocked her head to the floor. She didn’t say anything but stayed just like that.
Pei Qinghan glared at her for a long time. The more he looked at her the more he got angry. Then, he suddenly asked: “That day, when I took you to Dongfang Family Mansion, Wan’er mentioned Bai Zhi. The look on your face changed. You knew that Bai Zhi is my daughter, right?”
As Bai Zhenzhu slowly raised her head, two lines of tears fell on her face. She looked really pitiful. It’s just a pity, Pei Qinghan only had hatred in his heart. There was nothing else that could enter his eyes.
Bai Zhenzhu chokingly said, “Houye, I didn’t know that Bai Zhi was your daughter at first. Later, while on the way to the capital, I learned about it from my uncle and aunt. But at that time, I had no family or even a home. So even if I knew, I didn’t mention it.”
“You are quite good at finding reasons for yourself as if you are so innocent. Do you think I am really a fool and let you play back and forth?” Looking back on the scenes at that time, there were a lot of flaws. Unfortunately, he didn’t have that child in his heart at that time, so he didn’t even try to verify it. He didn’t find someone in the village to ask about it. Perhaps in his heart, he also hopes for that child to be dead!
“Houye, Yan’er dare not deceive you. Everything I said is true.”
“Yan’er? Do you deserve that name? You bitch, do you think you deserve it?”
Pei Qinghan’s words were like a basin of ice water in the lunar month, that was poured on Bai Zhenzhu’s head. The cold was biting and dripping into her clothes, making her shiver in the cold.
Is this how she will wake up in this dream?
She, who was a noble miss of Houfu become a bitch in the blink of an eye?
She doesn’t deserve that name? What about Bai Zhi? Why she deserves it and not her?
“Houye, don’t forget, it’s you who brought me here. I didn’t ask you to bring me here. But now that you have found your biological daughter, you want to cross the river and demolish the bridge?” Bai Zhenzhu stopped crying and looked up at Pei Qinghan majestically. Her trembling heart suddenly calmed down.
