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.
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!
