Mrs. Bai patted Bai Suihe's hand. As expected, a daughter was much more considerate; that bastard son of hers only cared about gossiping.
She shot Bai Jiannan a glare. "Your grandmother called me over right then. She knew your father was easily swayed and that it wouldn't be easy to correct his ways, so she handed over the indentured servitude contracts of all the servants in the Bai family to me.
"At the same time, she gave me the deeds to the Bai family's main properties. The actual contracts are all in my hands; your father only has management rights."
Otherwise, with his personality, it would have been absolutely impossible for her own children to inherit the majority of the estate.
"But wasn't it Father who handed over the properties to us back then?" Bai Jiannan wasn't trying to question his mother, but the family division hadn't happened that long ago, and his memory of it was still fresh.
