Bai Shutang's study is a little far away from qingtongyuan. Bai ruotong didn't walk easily all the way. Every servant who passes by on the road will say hello and look at her head in surprise. Although orange son is one by one fooled past, but white if Tong's eyebrow is more Cu more deep.
Just into the study gate, is to see Bai Lingwei kneeling in the corridor. The rain of glazed tiles fell down the eaves and wet her shoulders. Orange is busy holding the oil paper umbrella to her head.
In the study, there were bursts of quarrels.
"Father, who are you arguing with?" Bai ruotong came forward, squatted down and asked.
"With my brother."
Bai Lingwei shed tears and cried bitterly: "just now my brother saw me kneeling here. I told him the reason. He went to seek justice with my father for me."
Bai ruotong listened to these words and helped her up: "you get up first and go in with me to have a look."
Bai Lingwei got up and knelt down again: "I... I can't get up. My father is angry. If I get up, he will be more angry."
"It's not a way for you to kneel here!"
Bai ruotong sighs and tells her to take good care of him. He gets up and walks into the study.
……
"Father's meaning, in this mansion, as long as five aunt a words, who can let her dispose of?"
"What do you mean? Can't Lingwei be punished for bumping into Li Niang's sedan chair? "
"Besides Li Niang's maidservant's random talk, who has seen it?"
As soon as I entered, I heard that Bai Shutang and Bai Chusheng were constantly arguing.
"Father, brother!"
Bai ruotong comes forward and interrupts their quarrel.
"What happened to your head?"
Bai Chusheng looked back at the gauze on her head in amazement. Bai ruotong's mouth was flat, and he pretended to be indifferent: "today, the road is wet and slippery. I fell when I was walking."
Her words can deceive Bai Shutang, but not Bai Chusheng. When Bai Chusheng asked again, Bai Rutong quickly opened the topic: "brother, why did you quarrel with your father? What happened? "
"Ling Wei is kneeling outside. Don't you see that?" Bai Chusheng has no way to be angry.
Bai Rutong said with a smile: "it's because of the second sister! The second elder sister startled the fifth aunt's soft sedan chair. She really deserved to be punished. The second sister just told me that she knew she was wrong. "
"What are you talking about? She didn't touch the soft chair at all
Bai Chusheng twisted his eyebrows and couldn't understand what tricks his sister was playing.
"The rain is wet and slippery. The second elder sister says she can't remember clearly. Maybe she bumped into the sedan chair driver by accident," said Bai ruotong, sighing slightly. "The second elder sister is really careless. So are you, brother. It's right for her father to educate her. Why do you have to face her father?"
Bai ruotong winked at Bai Chusheng. Bai Chusheng understood and said nothing more.
"Is Lingwei really wrong?"
Bai Shutang asked.
"Isn't it? I've admitted my mistake. Father should forgive his sister. My sister didn't mean it, and she had already been slapped by her fifth aunt. Even my sister said that she should be slapped. "
Bai continued.
Bai Shutang was stunned and looked at Bai Rutong with wide eyes: "what did you say just now? Li Niang hit Bai Lingwei? "
"What? Don't you know that, father? " Bai ruotong covered his mouth, pretending to be shocked and said, "the fifth lady got out of the soft sedan chair at that time and slapped her sister directly. At that time, the servants and servants all looked... Oh! If he said something wrong, how could aunt Wu beat her sister? It was because he said something wrong... "
