Chapter 068: Zhang Family's Kindness

After the Zhang family had left, the Bai family returned to the Main Hall, all feeling dispirited.

"Who on earth have we offended to earn such a reputation as unfilial?" Lin Ping murmured quietly to herself.

A sudden realization hit Bai Ruozhu. No, her family absolutely couldn't bear such a label! The old man was now senile, thinking only of preserving face without considering the other implications. By Old Lady Bai's fuss, outsiders would now perceive the Bai second house as unfilial, and what if this was used against them in the future, jeopardizing her second brother's prospects?

She didn't possess much knowledge about the recently surfaced Danliang Country, but she had learnt from her second brother that Emperor Wuning, although rather young, placed high emphasis on filial piety, setting an example for all his officials.

She sneaked a glance at her second brother, who appeared indifferent as if unbothered by the situation.
