Old Lady Bai rejected Beigong Xiaojiu as her daughter-in-law without any hesitation, which made Xiao Ning feel a sense of despair.
She did not expect Old Lady Bai to be so stubborn.
Old Lady Bai’s criteria for choosing a daughter-in-law was clearly based on the desire for quick success and quick profits. The prettier the family, the better the family background. Beigong Xiaojiu had fulfilled almost all of her requests, but she rejected it just because she was related to someone.
Even if they were distant relatives who were not related by blood, if Gu Qiqi had not acknowledged them as relatives, their Bai family would never have been related to the Bei Gong royal family in their entire lives... yet, the old lady rejected Bei Gong Xiaojiu just because of this.., just because of this...
She asked herself, how could she be better than Bei Gong Xiaojiu?
Was she prettier than Bei Gong Xiaojiu?
Or was she of a higher status than Bei Gong Xiaojiu?
