Mrs. Bai Liu was willing to comply, but when she thought that Bai Xing would turn pale with fright when she heard the strange noise, her heart could not soften.
After all, Baicao had never experienced it. When her family told her, they were worried that Baicao would feel uncomfortable and not be able to take care of her health, so they just mentioned it in one word. They didn't know how serious the situation was at that time.
"Second aunt, get up quickly. What does it look like to kneel down? If you have anything to say, can you please?" Baicao stood up hurriedly and went to help Bai Qishi.
"Cao'er, help the second uncle to intercede with your mother and let the second uncle work here. The second uncle promises that she will work hard, won't say anything, and will never do bad things again.
.Your second uncle's health is broken, and your grandma is reluctant to buy him medicine. If you keep putting it off like this, he will be useless!" Bai Qishi saw that the concern on Baicao's face was genuine, and she hurriedly grabbed her arm and begged.
.
Bai Cao looked back at Bai Liu in embarrassment and called out: "Mom, how about..."
"No, let her go quickly. Our family can't afford the Qi family, and it's useless for anyone to ask for it." Bai Liu shouted with a very firm attitude, just to prevent herself from getting confused.
"Third brother and sister, I really know that I was wrong. I will never dare to do anything to your family again. Just give me a way to survive." Seeing Bai Liu's refusal, Bai Qi's body softened and she knelt down again.
He kowtowed loudly and said: "How about you give me five cents a day as wages? I will definitely work hard. Just agree to it. Third brother and sister, if I can't do this job, the head of the family won't have money to buy medicine. Isn't this right?"
If he takes his life, it will take our family’s life!”
Several women who were helping in the house couldn't bear to see this. It was obvious that Mrs. Bai Liu's face was ashen, so it was difficult to say anything.
The woman who helped in the kitchen did not have a close relationship with Mrs. Bai Liu. She had only become familiar with cooking in the past few days. She did not want to get into trouble and delay her own work.
"What you said is ridiculous. Could it be that because I didn't let you work in my house, I became the murderer who killed Bai Ershu and forced your family to die? You bullied our family over and over again and wanted to harm us.
Why were you so cruel when you killed our Bai Xing? Let me tell you, Mr. Qi, don’t pretend to be pitiful with me. If you really wanted to make money, why didn’t you start pioneering land in the first place?"
Bai Liushi's original soft-heartedness disappeared immediately after noticing the wrong expressions of others.
"There are a lot of old people and children in the field. They can do what they want, so why can't you do it? There are also people who hire people to do laundry and cooking outside. Are you really serious about this and are you afraid that you won't make money? Don't think you are showing off your desperate intentions.
If you act like you are alive, I will be soft-hearted and keep you. Don't think that I will use you just because of your reputation. Qi, your three brothers have all been in prison, and your family is not a good person. I don't want to use you again.
You recruit me and guard against thieves day and night, lest you want the seller's daughter again!"
When the women heard this, they suddenly remembered what Bai Ershu's family had done. They hurriedly lowered their heads to work, pretending not to hear anything, and regretted that they had even thought of begging for mercy just now.
Mrs. Bai Liu stood up angrily, pushed Mrs. Bai Qi and walked out, shouting: "I've told you, you second wife don't step into my house again, otherwise I'll beat you every time I see you. If you really think I'm
Why don't you dare to hit someone? Get out of here and don't let me see you again, otherwise I will have the intention of killing someone."
Mrs. Bai Qi cried and admitted her mistake, and kept begging Ms. Bai Liu to keep her, but in the end she was pushed out of the courtyard, and no one paid attention to her.
After crying for a while outside the courtyard of Sanfang, Mrs. Bai Qi wiped her tears fiercely, spat in the direction of the kitchen, and then trotted towards the workshop.
Not to mention how Bai Qi went to cry and beg Bai Sanshu, Bai Mei got angry at the homestead. She waited until the Bai Ling sisters finished ordering the bricks and paid the money to go home, then she showed up and stopped the two sisters.
people.
"What are you doing here? Are you looking for a beating?" When Bai Wei saw Bai Mei, she clenched her fist.
"Third sister." Bai Ling glanced at the person helping with the work out of the corner of his eye and called softly, preventing Bai Wei from moving her fist directly.
"I have news to sell to you. It's definitely big news that is very important to you. Can you please change the place to talk?" Bai Mei had a 'mysterious' expression, but in her mind was the image of Bai Ling paying the money just now.
Bai Ling could hand out dozens of taels of silver at will, making Bai Mei envious and jealous.
"Let me tell you first. I won't waste my money on useless news." Bai Ling looked at Bai Mei carefully, Bai Ling said, and then pulled Bai Wei forward, saying that the news about Bai Mei was useless.
Pay more attention to it.
Bai Mei gritted her teeth, followed up, and lowered her voice: "They are trying to get your family's recipe. I didn't hear the specific plan. Anyway, they want to take it away, as well as your family's workshop."
"Oh." Bai Ling nodded lightly, pressed Bai Wei's hand hard to silence her, and sneered: "I find it strange that they don't make up their minds. But I'm curious, you haven't made a decision yet.
As for the family division, if they really win, your second wife will also benefit. Why are you going against them? Are you afraid that if I know about it, I will peel off your skin? "
Bai Mei's eyes were full of hatred, and she said coldly: "Even if they really planned it, they wouldn't give the second wife any benefits. Besides, I'm almost at the age of marriage, do I still expect my grandma and uncle to prepare a dowry for me?
?”
After experiencing these events, Bai Mei has grown up a lot and knows that those so-called relatives cannot be relied on and she can only rely on herself.
"It makes some sense." Bai Ling paused, turned to look at Bai Mei, and said with a half-smile: "But your news is too unclear, how about I give you ten taels of silver?"
An ordinary peasant girl's dowry is good if it is worth ten taels of silver, but the price Bai Ling gave is not low.
It's not that Bai Ling sympathized with Bai Mei, but he thought there was something troublesome at the old house, and it would be nice if someone could report it.
As for Bai Mei's true thoughts, Bai Ling could also guess a little bit.
Bai Mei was a little dissatisfied, but after seeing Bai Ling's eyes, she immediately nodded and said, "Okay."
Bai Ling did not hesitate, took a ten-tael silver ingot, gave it to Bai Mei, and took Bai Wei home.
"If there's any more news, can I exchange some money for it?" Bai Mei hurriedly ran two steps to catch up and asked.
"As long as the information is useful, I have the final say on the amount of money." Bai Ling said without looking back.
Bai Mei clutched the silver tightly, and seeing no one around her, she hurriedly hid the silver close to her body and ran towards the village.
When the two sisters heard Bai Mei's footsteps fade away, Bai Wei shook off Bai Ling's hand and said angrily: "Those people in the old house are really evil-minded, and they are targeting our family again. It's really annoying."
"Third sister can speak idioms, it's really progress." Bai Ling smiled lightly, but didn't take it seriously.
"You still have the intention to tease me, who are these people! No, I'm going to find them right now and see how they are so thick-skinned." Bai Wei said and was about to go to the village.
"Look at your impatience, when will you change it?" Pulling Bai Wei again, Bai Ling patted her arm with a smile and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I'm just afraid that the old house won't make a fuss.
, the more noisy they are, the farther away Dad will be from them, and there will be a chance for a complete break in the future. Is it possible that you want to have a relationship with them for the rest of your life, but they will show up to respond to you from time to time? "
"Do you have any ideas? Tell me quickly." Bai Wei suddenly became interested and her eyes brightened. (To be continued)
