Chapter 375 - 372: Dispelling the Clouds to See the Sun_1
She did not expose Mr. Gu, and hearing him mention her grandfather, she felt a mixture of bitterness and sadness. "Let’s not stand here in the wind. Mr. Gu, accompany me around the ancestral home and tell me where my mother and aunts have been arranged to stay."
Mr. Gu nodded, leaning on his cane and lagging a step behind Bai Qingyan. He tidied his appearance and caught up, speaking to Bai Qingyan, who was carefully surveying the ancestral home, about everything he had accomplished since their return and what tasks they had planned to complete by the end of April.
"The matters of the ancestral home have been arranged very well by you, Mr. Gu. Thank you for your hard work."
"Later, the brothel madams and human traffickers in Shuoyang City will bring people over. Does Miss Bai want to personally inspect them?" Mr. Gu asked.
"The ancestral hall ceremony is at noon. I’m afraid there’s not enough time. Let the subordinates handle it. We mainly use the people brought from the Bai family in Dadu City. These new people can be arranged in the outer courtyard, so there’s no need to worry too much." Bai Qingyan said.
"Of course. The old servant has it under control. The newly bought ones will first do some rough work in the outer courtyard, and we’ll gradually pick and choose later." Mr. Gu replied.
It was not easy for the entire Bai family to return to Shuoyang. Not only did the masters need various items, but even the servants with their families had things to transport. This required several trips of escorting.
"There’s another matter. Originally, Madam intended for Miss Bai to stay at Jinfeng Courtyard, but I thought... although Jinfeng Courtyard is large, it’s too remote. It would be better to move to Baozhu Courtyard next to Madam. What does Miss Bai think?" Mr. Gu discussed with Bai Qingyan.
"I will stay at Jinfeng Courtyard. I practice martial arts daily, which might disturb Mother’s rest and cause her worry. A more secluded place is better." Bai Qingyan replied.
Bai Qingyan had once sworn to the Bai family soldiers that in three years, she would lead them to avenge the fallen brothers of the Bai family army, her grandfather, father, uncles, and brothers.
