Chapter 656: Know nothing
“So, they still don’t know Bai Zhi’s identity?”Mrs. Liu asked.
Bai Zhenzhu nodded: “It should be, otherwise, they wouldn’t call Bai Zhi Doctor Bai. Moreover, Pei Qinghan was lying, but they didn’t expose him. But what strange is, they don’t seem to care about me. Dongfang Wan even proposes to divorce Pei Qinghan.”
“Divorce?” Mrs. Liu’s raised the volume: “Dongfang Wan wants to divorce Houye?” The word ‘divorce’ was new to Mrs. Liu’s mouth, but it’s not like she had never heard of it before. It’s just, she didn’t expect that she will hear this word to a noble family.
Don’t all these people treasure their faces so much? So how can they allow such a thing to happen? Also, Pei Qinghan was a marquis.
Mrs. Liu asked: “What is the origin of this Dongfang Wan? How could she dare to divorce such a dignified nobleman?”
Bai Zhenzhu shook her head: “I don’t know, but Pei Qinghan’s attitude to the Dongfang Family is different. Pei Qinghan waited outside the mansion for a long time, but they didn’t even give him a seat or tea. They let him stand and thank the whole time.”
“Then it seems that their background is not small.” Mrs. Liu nodded.
Bai Zhenzhu said: “I’m not here to gossip with you but to discuss countermeasures with you. If Bai Zhi’s identity comes to light, not only I will be thrown away, but also you. If you still want to continue living here with servants and free delicious food, you have to settle this matter.”
Mrs. Liu frowned: “Settle this matter? How do you want me to settle this matter? You speak like it’s something easy, just like your upper lips touch your lower lip.”
Knowing that she was asking for money again, Bai Zhenzhu took out 2 silver ingots, 2 golden hairpins, and a pair of jade bracelets.
“I can only take out these things now. If it’s done, I assure you that you will also benefit from it in the future.” Bai Zhenzhu pushed the things she prepared in front of Mrs. Liu’s face.
Mrs. Liu’s eyes brightly shine and her face bloomed like flowers. She hurriedly put the pair of jade bracelets on her hands, pinned the two golden hairpins in her hair, and asked Bai Zhenzhu if it looks good on her.
Bai Zhenzhu doesn’t have the heart to appreciate whether it looks good or not, she said with a calm face: “Auntie, no matter what method you use, you must make Bai Zhi completely disappear.”
Mrs. Liu only has the gold and silver in her nows, she didn’t think about anything else. She just responded casually: “Okay, just this matter to me. But I’m telling you, these things are just a deposit. Once it’s done, you can’t forget us.”
Bai Zhenzhu simply answered. She didn’t want to see Mrs. Liu’s greedy face anymore, so she got up and left.

When Bai Zhenzhu left, Bai Dazhu and his two sons hurried in. Bai Dazhu asked: “What did she say to you?”
Only then did Mrs. Liu come back to her senses, and told him what Bai Zhenzhu had said.
Bai Dazhu asked: “Where is the Dongfang Family Mansion?”
Mrs. Liu shook her head: “I didn’t ask, so I don’t know.”
“Who is the Master of Dongfang Family?”
“I don’t know… …”
“Then, what do you know? How do you plan to do this job?”
Mrs. Liu shook her head again: “I don’t know… …”
Bai Dazhu stretched out his hand and pulled out the golden hairpins from her head. Then, he put the 2 silver ingots on the table into his sleeve and pointed to the jade bracelets in her hand: “Give it to me.”
Mrs. Liu shook her head and hurriedly hid her hands behind her: “No, just leave these things to me.”
Bai Dazhu simply grabbed her hands, took the jade bracelets, and put them in his own hands. After taking things, he walked away. Mrs. Liu was so angry that she beat her chest.
