The heirs are bound to third persons by acts which the administrator has done within the scope of his authority by virtue of his administratorship. They are not bound by any juristic act entered into by the administrator with a third person if such juristic act was entered into for consideration of any property or other advantages given for his personal benefit or so promised to him by such person unless the heirs have given their consent.
