Chapter 1601: Entering the Family TreeEditor: Henyee Translations

They entered the family tree very quickly. The ancestral hall was in the Bai Manor. Bai Yong led his two sons into the door to pay respects to their ancestors.

Then, before the memorial tablet, he recounted the cause and effect of the matter. He also recorded the deed of Shao Qingyuan’s disappearance and recovery in the genealogy.

Then, they let him enter the ancestral hall and acknowledge his ancestors.

Shao Qingyuan’s name was still there. The family tree recorded him as Bai Zhiyu, but because they were used to calling him by his original name, and his household register was still in Yongfu Village, even the emperor’s file had the name Shao Qingyuan.

He had already confirmed it in the imperial court’s historical records. If he wanted to change his name back, it would not be so simple.

Therefore, with the permission of the rest of the Bai family, Old Master Bai also wrote "Shao Qingyuan" beside his name on the family tree.

Just take it as... an alias.

Of course, the members of the Bai family still called him Ah Yu. This was a title that belonged to them.

When Gu Yundong heard about this, she could only sigh—Old Master Bai was really open-minded.

This matter was done quite quickly. After offering incense and kowtowing, Shao Qingyuan came out.

After meeting the ancestors and entering the family tree, the group prepared to set off back to the Xuanhe Prefecture.

Although Old Master Bai was reluctant, Yundong’s mother’s illness was a big matter after all. Naturally, the sooner she was cured, the better.

But this time, Bai Hang and Shao Yin also followed.

Because they were going to see their in-laws, the two of them were a little nervous. They thought that they could not miss out on the meeting gifts, so they prepared gifts for two days and stuffed the carriage full.

One was not enough. They wanted to stuff another carriage.

Gu Yundong did not know whether to laugh or cry when she saw this. She could only persuade them, "Father, Mother, one carriage is enough. It will take us a long time to travel to the Xuanhe Prefecture. Some things can’t be stored for long. If they go bad when we reach the Xuanhe Prefecture later, won’t it be a waste of your kindness?"

Shao Qingyuan, who was standing at the side, nodded.

Gu Yundong continued, "And there will be bumps and bruises along the way. Those vases and porcelains are all fragile items. It would be a pity if they break on the way." The most unbelievable thing was that these were all antiques. If they broke, she would not be able to sleep for half a year.

Shao Qingyuan continued to nod.

Bai Hang and Shao Yin frowned. What Gu Yundong said made sense.

However, if the gifts were not expensive enough, what if the Gu family’s parents thought that they were dissatisfied with this daughter-in-law?

God knew how satisfied they were with Gu Yundong, especially when they saw how sweet the couple was. They were extremely satisfied when they saw how happy their son was when he was with Yundong.

In the end, Gu Yundong tried her best to stop them. With Shao Qingyuan’s approval, the two of them could only give up something that was fragile and not easy to preserve.

But even so, a carriage was stuffed.

There were also two antique vases and jade artifacts that the two of them refused to give up no matter what. They only found a box that was specially used to store these things. It was filled with straw cotton, guaranteeing that it would not shatter no matter how bumpy it was. They firmly moved into the carriage.

Gu Yundong said, "Then so be it. As long as you’re happy."

However, what she didn’t know was that Bai Hang and his wife also brought a box filled with... banknotes.

After everything was ready, the carriage set off.

Bai Hang and Shao Yin didn’t bring too many people with them. A guard, a servant, an old woman, and two grooms were enough to take care of their daily needs.
