Chapter 141 Dilemma

After entering the city, there were so many people, no matter how carefree Peng Qingqing was, she knew what people said was scary, so she didn't dare to ride a horse intimately with a big man blatantly and ostentatiously.So, before the gate of the city, she and Su Chen had already dismounted, and neither rode. They led the horses and saddles, walked through the long streets and alleys, and came to Bairun Building to meet Bai Susu first.

In the past two days, Bai Shouyi led a group of slaves to guard the gates of the White Mansion, and he had to pass his approval to enter and exit. Bai Susu was going to take Dr. Liu to see his grandfather for follow-up treatment, but he was blocked outside the mansion. He threatened her that if she didn't hand over the family business, she wouldn't be allowed to enter the house. Moreover, they would call together the elders of the Bai family and shopkeepers to judge Bai Susu's dereliction of duty.

Bai Susu didn't want to make a big fuss and let outsiders see the jokes, so she retreated temporarily and went back to live in Bairun Building. While dealing with the crisis and dealing with the accounts, some porcelain businessmen came to their door to cancel the contract to buy white porcelain this year, and let her Both angry and somewhat helpless.At present, apart from lowering the price of the porcelain from the Bai family, she has no other good way to compete with the porcelain offered by the Ding family.

But even so, the Bai family only has white porcelain, while the Ding family has two kinds of celadon and white porcelain. In terms of the necessity of those merchants' business, the Ding family obviously wins.

Merchants and country gentry in Runzhou City who are engaged in porcelain export business will definitely favor the Ding family and dare not offend, because the Ding family has mastered the two most mainstream porcelain firing and mass production, while the Bai family only has white porcelain, which seems monotonous .

Although white porcelain was more popular than celadon in the past, and the Bai family's porcelain business accounted for a larger share, but after this trade-off, the Bai family's porcelain business may be cut in half, and the price will have to be lowered. Row.

Of course, the thing that worried her the most was her grandfather's illness. On the day of the onset, Bai Susu invited Su Chen's younger brother, Dr. Liu, to give Bai Fengxian a diagnosis and treatment. Using medicine stones and acupuncture, the condition was slightly controlled.But in the next few days, the stroke became serious again. Yesterday, when Bai Susu brought Miracle Doctor Liu to treat her grandfather, Bai Shouyi led someone to stop her and refused to let him in.

I don't know if my grandfather is dead or alive, the door of the house is blocked by my second uncle, and Bai Susu is so worried that he can't sleep or eat well. Coupled with the many blows in his business, he is devastated and haggard physically and mentally, as if he is stuck in a quagmire and cannot extricate himself from it. .

Although she had a shrewd mind in the past, in the final analysis, she was just a 17-year-old girl. In ancient times, women rarely showed their faces to do business. Get rejected, or get perfunctory rhetoric.

Now they would rather offend the Bai family than the Ding family, because the role of the Bai family is not as important as before, and it is dispensable, but the Ding family is indispensable.

The room on the second floor, Waixuan Room.

Bai Susu frowned, and asked, "Master Liu, can my grandfather's stroke be cured?"

"This... is a bit tricky. After all, Patriarch Bai is old and has a deficiency of qi and blood. He is prone to strokes. Moreover, during the two diagnoses, the old man found that his pulse was disordered in Patriarch Bai's body. , it’s a little different from previous strokes, it’s very weird, and there’s no good way to do it right now. Now your second uncle won’t let us enter the White Mansion, and we can’t get in touch with Mr. Bai, so there’s nothing we can do.” Doctor Liu answered truthfully.

Bai Susu's face became colder and colder. Thinking of what her second uncle had done, she couldn't wait to drive her out and regain the power of the family. With that tricky and mean face, and slanderous words, how could there be any trace of family affection?It is almost like an enemy, saying that the emperor's family is ruthless, and it is the same in the rich and powerful families.

At this time, footsteps came from the attic stairs in the courtyard, and Peng Qingqing shouted loudly: "Sister Susu, I brought you back."

Bai Susu was in trouble, when she heard this sentence, she felt better when she thought of the return of someone she cared about. She stood up and walked towards the door, intending to open the door herself, even the maid Xiaotong didn't order her.

"Squeak!"

The door opened, and the moment Bai Susu opened the door, she saw Peng Qingqing's beaming expression, and Su Chen's sleepy face, and said with a faint smile, "You guys are back, come in."

Peng Qingqing asked first: "Sister Susu, how is the situation of your Bai family? Has anyone entered the Bai mansion today?"

Bai Susu shook her head and said: "Haven't gone yet, Second Uncle has blocked the gate, unless you force your way, otherwise, it's very easy to get in."

Peng Qingqing was a little worried and said, "Then Grandpa Bai's illness will be delayed?"

Bai Susu sighed softly, nodded and said, "I was discussing Grandpa's condition with Dr. Liu just now, if Second Uncle still insists on going his own way and doesn't miss the old love, Susu can only force his way."

Su Chen walked over, looked at Bai Susu's somewhat haggard face, which was quite different from the radiant face seven or eight days ago, similar to the tired look he had when he didn't sleep well, and asked, "Did you not sleep well last night?"

Bai Susu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Su Chen. The first time the two met, he didn't ask what was wrong with the Bai family, nor did he mention anything else. The first thing he said was to ask her if she slept well last night. The most simple and straightforward sentence If it is, it may appear a bit childish and ridiculous in the eyes of outsiders.However, for some reason, she felt a softness in her heart, as if a gap had been knocked out of the hardest protection in her heart.

"Well, I went to bed late, there were many troublesome things, and I couldn't sleep well." Bai Susu replied softly.

"I didn't sleep last night, we all have to catch up on sleep tonight." After Su Chen finished speaking, he even yawned.

Peng Qingqing stretched out her hand beside Su Chen and pinched Su Chen's ribs, and said angrily, "What time is this? You're only thinking about sleeping, but you're using your ingenuity to help Susu come up with a few tricks to deal with her." Second uncle and the Ding family!"

"What is a conspiracy? It's so ugly!" Su Chen frowned, and distanced himself from this little girl, so as to avoid her evil hands.

Peng Qingqing also knew that she had used the wrong word, so she changed her sentence again and said, "That's the best way to calculate the head office. In short, you should come up with a solution quickly!"

Su Chen's expression was speechless, and he sighed: "You think I'm Zhuge Liang! You're so clever, you can come up with a countermeasure by slapping a chicken feather."

Peng Qingqing retorted: "There are no chicken feathers, they are crane tails and eagle feathers. Don't think I don't understand, my father has a feather fan!"

Bai Susu rubbed between her brows, feeling a little headache, if this pair of enemies get together, if they don't bicker, something strange will happen.

Doctor Liu came over, cupped his hands at Su Chen and said, "I've met Senior Brother Su!"

Seeing that he was there, Su Chen cupped his hands in return: "Junior Brother Liu, you are welcome. You are here to see a doctor for Mr. Bai, right?"

Bai Susu took the opportunity to change the subject and said: "A few days ago, I invited Dr. Liu to treat my grandfather, but the disease of stroke has always been very stubborn, and it cannot be cured overnight. Dr. Liu prescribed medicine and acupuncture in parallel, and it has been relieved in the first two days. , but later the condition is still recurring, and there are signs of continued deterioration. Yesterday, a genius doctor Liu and I went back to the White Mansion, and were intercepted by the second uncle. The current condition of the grandfather is unknown, which is really worrying!"
