Chapter 93 The Second Miss of the Song Family 8
As soon as Lan Xi stepped into the hall, she saw a middle-aged man sitting at the head, but his temples were already graying, the thick bags under the eyes, and his face like white paper all showed that this man was haggard.

This is Bai Yirong, the Patriarch of the Bai Family, who is now in his fifties, a few years older than the Patriarch of the Song Family, but the Patriarch of the Bai Family seems to be even older, especially the recent disappearance of the family heirloom of the Bai Family. The Patriarch of the Bai family had a few more wrinkles on his brows.

Lan Xi saluted first, "I met Uncle Bai, how are you doing recently?"

"Niece of the Song family, hurry up and get rid of the courtesy, everything is fine, how is the Patriarch of the Song family?" Bai Yirong raised his hand.

"Thank you uncle for your concern, my father is well." Lan Xi stood down and replied.

"Okay, please take a seat." Bai Yirong smiled and invited to take a seat.

Lan Xi was sitting at Bai Yirong's lower left, followed by the Third Elder and Song Ruian sitting next to Lan Xi, Su Zhu was standing behind Lan Xi, and Bai Wenyi was sitting opposite Lan Xi.

After a few people greeted each other for a while, Lan Xi began to get down to the topic, "Uncle Bai, I heard that the family treasure of the Bai family has been stolen. Is there any news recently?"

"Recently, the Bai family went all out to search, but there was still no news. The thief escaped." The Patriarch of the Bai family said with a heartbroken face.

"Does that uncle know the face or characteristics of the thief? The Song family and the Bai family are both four great families, so they should help each other in the same boat. If something happened to the Bai family, the Song family would naturally want to help." Lan Xi said with a righteous face, If it hadn't been for these days of experience, Song Rui'an would have almost believed Lan Xi's words.

The Patriarch of the Bai family was moved when he heard this, "The Song family's heart is appreciated by the Bai family, but it's just a trivial matter, so it shouldn't be so motivating."

It seems that the other party's ability to open their eyes and tell nonsense is also good. Although the four great families also cooperate now, they compete a lot and secretly compete in private, wishing to step on each other's feet.

"What's the matter with Uncle Bai, something happened to the Bai family, the Song family is obliged to take action, how can they stay out of the matter, how will this make the Song family face?" Lan Xi said filled with righteous indignation.

The Patriarch of the Bai family looked at Lan Xi curiously, but he thought in his heart that he did not expect that the second Miss of the Song family was so thick-skinned at such a young age, that she could even lie for this sake, but I heard that the second Miss of the Song family has been The performance is restrained, but it seems different now.

The third elder also looked at Lan Xi curiously. Walking away all the way, the third elder watched Lan Xi grow up with his own eyes. Unexpectedly, the second young lady who used to be a martial idiot also knew how to practice Tai Chi. She was quite a shadow of the Patriarch of the Song family. The second young lady in the past did not show her current side.

But Bai Wenyi who was sitting across from him didn't have the concentration of the Patriarch of the Bai family, just looking at his trembling cheeks, he could tell that the other party was working hard to hold back his smile.

"What the Song family did is touching. Uncle Song's niece's kindness has also been received, but he still doesn't know the information about the thief. Sending people to look for it is like finding a needle in a haystack. We don't need too many people for the time being." Bai Bai Patriarch Jia said to Lan Xi with a smile on his face.

"Since Uncle Bai said so, forget it. If the Bai family has news about the thief, they must inform the Song family. The Song family will definitely help them." Lan Xi said with a slightly regretful tone.

Lan Xi's meaning also shows that it's not that the Song family doesn't want to help, but that your Bai family doesn't want the Song family to help. Lan Xi controls the Song family from the commanding heights, so that the Bai family can't find any faults, and also gets the Bai family's gratitude. It was very perfunctory, but the other party's attitude had already been made, and Lan Xi accepted it as soon as it was good.

The reason why Lan Xi is so pressing is that on the one hand, it shows the attitude of the Song family. Even though the Bai and Song families compete in private, they still maintain the attitude of allies on the surface.

On the other hand, this is also a test. Lan Xi wants to test whether the youngest daughter of the Patriarch of the Bai family is missing, and the disappearance of the other party is likely to be related to the theft of the family treasure of the Bai family, otherwise the Bai family will not try their best to prevent other Man looking for thief.

Of course, these are just Lan Xi's guesses. This trial only makes the guess results more correct, and further confirmation is needed later.

The Patriarch of the Bai family changed the topic, and the few people chatted a few more words, and then the Patriarch of the Bai family asked Bai Wenyi to take Lan Xi and the others to rest.

Bai Wenyi brought Lan Xi and the others to a guest house of the Bai family. The area was not small, much larger than the small courtyard rented by the inn, and the environment was more beautiful.

Now that the four of Lan Xi are visiting the Bai family, they can no longer stay in the inn, and they will stay in the Bai family for the next few days.

Lan Xi and the four each chose a room as their residence, and the largest room was naturally reserved for Lan Xi, who secretly called Su Zhu over.

He told her to go out and inquire about some things. The servants of the Bai family may know a lot about some things, but Lan Xi's identity is not suitable, so Su Zhu was sent to inquire about the news.

Suzhu has always done things neatly, and Lan Xi is more at ease in entrusting this matter to her. In addition, Suzhu only has her own master and is loyal to her, so Lan Xi is even more at ease.

Lan Xi instructed Su Zhu to mainly inquire about the youngest daughter of the Patriarch of the Bai family and the various family members who have visited the Bai family recently, and then handed Su Zhu some silver taels and bank notes. After all, inquiring about news is inseparable from money.

Before it was time for lunch, Suzhu came back with some news.

The youngest daughter of the Patriarch of the Bai family was put in confinement for the reason that he contradicted the Patriarch of the Bai family, but this reason was somewhat untenable, because Bai Manqing had always been loved by the Patriarch of the Bai family.

It is also because Bai Manqing is the youngest child of the Patriarch of the Bai family, so she is naturally a little coddled, and Bai Manqing can talk sweet words, coaxing the Patriarch of the Bai family to wish to pick stars from the sky to give her. It can be said that Bai Manqing is the most favored child of the Bai family, even Bai Wenyi is a little less than.

But now he was locked up because of contradicting, and all the maidservants around Bai Manqing were punished together with Bai Manqing, now no one in the mansion knows whether Bai Manqing is still in the Bai family.

And at that time, the Patriarch of the Bai family vomited blood and fell into a coma. Lan Xi felt that the Bai family was trying to cover up the disappearance of Bai Manqing through this incident. Now, looking at Bai Manqing, there is indeed a high chance that Bai Manqing has left the Bai family.

Then there is the list of the major families who came to visit the Bai family during this period. Except for some famous families, the other three families of the four major families can be said to have come, and Lan Xi and the others are the latest to come.

Shan Xue from the Shan family arrived early tomorrow, and has been away for three days now. The Yun family, one of the four great families, is Yun Yougan, the youngest son of the owner of the Yun family. He is still living in the Bai family, but he is about to leave soon. .

The other three major families who came to the Bai family this time are all younger generations, and they may also want to train the younger generation and prepare for them to take over the family affairs.

The Song family was a little busy with Song Shuiyin's affairs, so Lan Xi came here on behalf of the Song family, but I have to say that this trip to the rivers and lakes has yielded a lot.
