Chapter 582: I need an obedient daughter
He didn’t want to get the child back, but he needed the child’s marriage to Prince Jin. If the child was still alive and been found by Dongfang Mu, what would be the consequences? He dare not think about it.
Now that the child was gone, although he felt comfortable, what should he do with Prince Jin’s marriage? After his father died, the Changyuan Houfu gradually declined. Dongfang Mu, even if he was his father-in-law, he never helped him climb the rank, nor say a few good words for him in front of the emperor. He was a dignified duke, but he doesn’t even have a serious job. Over the years, he has been eating the old reputation of Houfu, but this reputation will end up someday. He wants Changyuan Houfu to rise again, and now this was the only way.
With Prince Jin’s marriage, their Changyuan Houfu can rise through Prince Jin’s momentum.
The child was gone, but the jade pendant was still there. With the jade pendant, he can just find a girl and pretend to be the child that year. He was the father, so as long as he said it is her, then it is her.
It happened that there was an excellent candidate in front of him. This girl named Bai Zhenzhu has a strong desire in her eyes, but a person like her was the most suitable candidate. She has a low birth status, he can handle her easily. Even if she got married to Prince Jin, she will still listen to him.
In the end, Pei Qinghan said “You want to be the young miss in the capital, while I need an obedient daughter. I can give you what you want, can you give me what I want?”
Bai Zhenzhu looked up and saw that the nobleman was staring at her. Only then she realized that he was talking to her.
Does he mean that, even if he was not his real daughter, he will turn her into a noble young miss? He will make her a noble young miss as long as she is obedient?
As simple as that? She just need to be obedient?
Bai Zhenzhu, without hesitation, she immediately nodded and promised: “I can, I can be obedient. I will do what you want me to do, as long as you are willing to take me out of here.” Since long ago, she had always felt that she was different from the peasant girls in this village. She should live in a house surrounded by maidservants, and not in such a dilapidated house.
Now, she finally has a chance.
“Get up!” Pei Qinghan said softly.
The Bai Family kneeling on the ground climbed up, but they haven’t been awakened from shock. They looked at Bai Zhenzhu and Pei Qinghan, this… … The sudden turned of events made them dizzy.
Pei Qinghan said: “You pack up your things, I will send someone to pick you up tomorrow.”
Happiness appeared on Bai Zhenzhu’s face. That’s it?
At this time, footsteps came from outside, and they heard Mrs. Zhang’s question: “Who are you?”
The people in the yard didn’t respond, so Mrs. Zhang and Bai Erzhu rushed inside the house. Seeing the big crowd inside, she got a little confused. Why there were so many strangers at home? The carriage outside was very impressive. It was much better than the carriage Bai Zhi used.
After Pei Qinghan saw Mrs. Zhang’s face, his face turned black. This woman’s face was very similar to Bai Zhenzhu. At a glance, he could tell that they were mother and daughter. These people still didn’t tell him the truth.
Mrs. Zhang’s hurriedly grabbed her daughter’s hand and pulled her close to her arms, but she was pushed away by her daughter.
Mrs. Zhang was shocked: What is going on?
Pei Qinghan asked: “Who are you to Bai Zhenzhu?”
Mrs. Zhang replied: “I am her mother, who are you?” She felt a little scared inside her heart. The man in front of her looked like not an ordinary person.
