Bai He looked at them, she must have said everything, and since the situation had already turned out like this, she must get her words back.
"That's right, yesterday when I was harvesting the herbs for my mother, I saw Bai Shi in the forest." Bai He lowered his voice, showing a pitiful look.
Bai He bit her lips, with a bashful look, she nodded.
Mrs White Sun wrinkled her brows and said, "This matter needs to be handled properly. Go and invite the old master over." This was a huge matter and even she could not make the decision.
Hearing her words, Bai He remembered that they had an elder on their heads. This elder had some ability and had even been an Elementary Scholar before. Because of this, the extremely arrogant White Sun family had married him. Unfortunately, it was unknown whether it was due to his bad luck or because he really didn't have much ability. He hadn't passed the rest of the exams in the past few years. When he was old, he would no longer have the heart to do so.
When he returned to the Bai Clan village, he became a teacher. Originally, he could have gotten a few lines of money every month, but a few years ago, a High Scholar came to the village and his job as a teacher was gone.
However, he was still conceited. Every day, he would sing poetry and fight, not caring about the food at home. He only knew that if he lost his money, he would ask White Sun family for it. Normally, he didn't care about anything.
Bai He naturally did not expect this disgruntled elder to help her. She only hoped that he would not say anything bad.
"You better reflect on it!" After Mrs White Sun finished giving orders, she reprimanded Bai He, then walked to the door and waited.
"Xiao He, you really …" Lady Baisong looked at Bai He and asked worriedly.
Bai He nodded strongly and said, "Mother, I really like him a lot. That's why …" Of course he had to do the entire act. If he told his mother, who knows?
This mother was good everywhere, but she was too indecisive when it came to some matters, just in case that evil grandma was thinking of a way to punish her. Lady Baisong knew the truth, and in order to protect her, he probably told her the truth at some point. Perhaps, to her, this was the only way to protect her, but to Bai He, telling the truth was simply pushing her into a pit of fire.
Therefore, she had to hide it.
I wonder what will happen to Bai Shi? Today, he had inexplicably put a hat on his head. Who knew what the others would say? However, Bai Shi was a man after all, so he shouldn't care too much about such a reputation.
She was a little worried, but it was already imminent. If she did not do something, she would definitely marry that wretched man!
"Xiao He, what should we do? Mother, mother will definitely not forgive you. If I kick you out … " Lady Baisong looked at her worriedly, afraid that she had really been kicked out.
But for Bai He, being kicked out was not a bad thing. It was just that she couldn't abandon her mother here and enjoy life by herself. Therefore, she had to think carefully on how to leave this place.
"Mother, don't worry, I believe granny won't be so heartless." Bai He comforted Lady Baisong.
After a long while, an old man in a long robe slowly walked in.
Bai He looked carefully, this man truly had the feeling of a sour Elementary Scholar, she had a very cultured and talented look, but the quality of the fabric was completely different from the rest. A knowledgeable person would be able to tell what kind of person he was with a single glance.
"What's going on?" Bai Yanming said slowly.
"Master, this is what happened. Bai He has always been on good terms with others, and has tarnished our family's reputation, do you know how we should handle this? " Mrs. White Sun stepped forward and asked.
Bai Yanming stroked his beard, and muttered to himself: "Bai He, if you ruin this reputation, you should be punished."
"Father, in my opinion, I should tell the village chief to take Bai He to the pig cage!" Lady Baiqian said some bad ideas on the side.
Lady Baisong looked at Lady Baiqian with a worried expression and said: "Sister-in-law, you should just be more tactful with your words."
"What's wrong with me? For Bai He to do such a thing, shouldn't he be punished? " Lady Baiqian said in dissatisfaction. According to her, it was always better to have less people to eat.
"Shut up. The old master is here, why are you arguing? " White Sun née saw that they were actually arguing and hurriedly scolded them.
Bai Yanming looked at them and muttered to himself for a while before saying: "Bai He has ruined our plans. Considering how you normally behave, we will chase you out."
"Father can't."
"Father, aren't you letting her off this easily?"
Bai Yanming looked at them and said: "I have decided, I can't change my mind." He had a dignified expression on his face. He didn't give others a chance to change their expressions.
Lady Baiqian heard about it and decided to do it, how could she? After thinking for a long time, she decided to start from her mother's side.
After all, they couldn't afford to take advantage of Bai He.
"Mother, I'm speaking the truth. If we just kick Bai He out like this, what would the people outside say about us?" Lady Baiqian walked in front of Mrs. White Sun with a look of consideration.
Mrs White Sun looked at her and said slowly: "You don't want to see Bai He alright?!"
"Mother, how can you say that? Today, things have gotten out of hand, and many people are looking at our family's joke. If we let Bai He off so easily, she would definitely say bad things about us to the outside world. Mother, you definitely don't want to see it. " Lady Baiqian slowly said as he helped her get a bowl of water.
Mrs White Sun took it, took a sip, and slowly said: "I also don't want to take advantage of Bai He, but I don't have any other choice now, I still feel sorry for that five liang of silver."
That was a harvest a farmer would only get in a year.
Lady Baiqian looked at her and said: "That's right, I think we should find the village chief to make a decision on this matter. Furthermore, we cannot let Bai Shi go so easily, he stood at Bai He's advantage just like that!" Her eyes were full of calculation.
Mrs White Sun thought about it, and thought that it was indeed logical, and said: "That's right, why didn't I think of it, it was all because of him that made that family give up on Bai He, he definitely has to pay some kind of price."
Hearing that she agreed, Lady Baiqian nodded his head and said: "I heard that Bai Shi is an expert at hunting normally, we should be able to get him to take out something no matter what."
When Mrs. White Sun heard her words, she had a plan. She immediately went to find Bai Shi, because even though they would be powerless against such a big fellow, but if they were to inform the Village Chief of this matter, he would definitely step in.
Thinking of this, she said, "Very well, go and invite the Village Chief over. We cannot let this matter go just like that."
Lady Baiqian immediately walked out happily. She couldn't just watch Lady Baisong dodge so easily.
Bai He knelt on the ground for a long time, but still didn't see anyone, so she pulled his mother and said: "Mother, we're not going back, are we?"
Although Bai Yanming had made a decision, he still left right after, and didn't say anything else. Mrs. White Sun was also pulled to one side by Lady Baiqian. Presumably, she had some bad idea.
Naturally, she did not want to kneel.
"Xiao He, what should we do now? You're going to be kicked out. " Lady Baisong's face was full of worry, and when her eyes landed on Bai He's face, he looked like she was blaming herself again.
Bai He shook her head and said, "Don't worry Mom, they definitely won't let me go so easily."
Lady Baisong looked at her in shock.
Bai He sarcastically said: "granny had previously lost five taels of silver, so she must still be holding a grudge now. I must definitely think of a way to take it out from me. Unfortunately, I don't have any money on me right now. "
"Then what should we do?" Neither did Mother. " The Bai Clan usually gave all their money to the White Sun Clan, how could they possibly have any money?
Bai He shook her head and said: "We will take care of this matter first, let's see what they will do now."
When Madame White Sun saw that Bai He and the others were actually kneeling on the side, she kicked them, scolding, "You guys still dare to be lazy, I'll definitely teach you a lesson today."
Bai He looked at her, her heart instantly filled with unhappiness. She said: "granny, our legs are truly in pain from kneeling."
"You still dare to retort back!" Mrs. White Sun was even more furious, she raised her rod and was about to hit Bai He.
With all of this happening, Bai He no longer wanted to endure. He immediately stood up and ran while shouting, "granny, granny, you'll beat me to death if you like this."
As she ran, she peeked at the item beside her. Seeing that there was actually a round object on the cabinet, she opened her hand and knocked the wooden object onto the ground.
The White Sun family had been rebuked. They had wanted to teach Bai He a lesson from the start, but never would they have thought that they would be ambushed.
"Pah!" White Sun grandma fell down.
"My old waist!" Mrs. White Sun shouted in surprise.
"White Sun clan?" When the Village Chief entered, he saw a scene like this.
Mrs White could only press her hand on her waist and call out, "Village Head."
Bai He looked at the village chief and frowned slightly. Were they going to settle the score soon?
"Where's Bai Shi? Why isn't he here! " Mrs. White Sun looked behind him. When she couldn't find him, she immediately became unhappy.
"Someone has been sent for him." The village chief replied: "Bai He, come over here and tell us what exactly happened!"
Bai He was surprised, was she trying to settle the score with Bai Shi? Damn, was what she did before a burden to him?
"This matter is my own affair, it has nothing to do with Bai Shi, if you want to find, then find me!" He was originally just pulling Bai Shi into the water, she didn't have the face to ask Bai Shi to help her clean up the mess.
