In Bai Wei's new house, the girls she calls to the table only dare to eat the food around them.
Everyone had their heads lowered, and there was only a depressing atmosphere at the dinner table. It was impossible to tell that this was the Chinese New Year.
Bai Wei, who drank several glasses of wine in a row, finally couldn't bear it any more. She lifted the table and shouted: "Get out, all of you, get out of here!"
The girls scattered in all directions, fearing that their master would kill them if they ran a step slower.
There were chicken, duck, fish and broken porcelain pieces all over the floor. Bai Wei knelt down, held her head and cried loudly.
"I will definitely live a better life than you all. This is the last time I cry! I, Bai Wei, swear that this is the last time I cry. There will never be another time!" Bai Wei shouted sharply.
But the louder she shouted, the harder Bai Wei's tears flowed.
New Year!
In my memory, no matter it was a hard day or a good day, the whole family would sit together in a room and talk endlessly. It was so warm.
But now...
She, Bai Wei, is just a loner!
The second day of the first lunar month is the day when a married girl returns home. If she marries too far away, she will lose such a rare opportunity.
Yang Fan accompanied Baicao to Bai Mansion and was called by his two brothers-in-law to talk. As for what they talked about, no one knew.
Bai Ling took Baicao to her room, and the first thing she did was to check Baicao's pulse.
"Sister, you are recovering very well. When you go back, I will get you some medicine. You will take it for the first half of the year, and then you will have to take care of yourself. You can consider having a baby next year." Jian Baicao.
With a nervous look on his face, Bai Ling smiled.
It is not difficult to tell from Baicao's complexion that she has been doing well during this period. The happy smile in her eyes cannot be faked.
"It's a good thing I have you, otherwise my body would have collapsed." Baicao felt scared just thinking about it.
The more happiness a person gets, the more afraid he is of not being able to cherish this happiness. This is what Baicao is like now.
"Eldest sister, keep an open mind on everything, and don't let yourself be wronged in any situation. In the capital, our Bai family is not a wealthy family, but there is no need to be inferior to others. Not to mention the dowry of the eldest sister, even the ability of the eldest sister to make money is beyond the reach of many people.
Yes, I don’t know how much I envy my brother-in-law for marrying such a capable wife like you."
Knowing that Bai Cao would attend many banquets recently, but it was inevitable that he would encounter some unhappy things, Bai Ling had no choice but to offer some words of comfort first.
"I understand." Holding Bai Ling's hand, Baicao chuckled and said: "I didn't understand before, but now I understand the good intentions of my parents and you. This dowry is really a woman's confidence in her husband's family. Originally, it was
Some people want to laugh at me, but after knowing how generous my dowry is, they can only be envious."
"It's not just envy, but also jealousy, right?" Bai Ling chuckled, and could imagine the faces of those people.
Not to mention here in the capital, even in Nanshan Village, young daughters-in-law would compete with each other over the amount of their dowry.
When Mrs. Bai Liu got married, she had quite a lot of dowry, but Mrs. Bai pinched it all, so her confidence was gone.
On the other hand, Bai Yuanshi and Bai Qishi were holding on to the dowry tightly, but Mrs. Bai was a little softer towards them, thinking of coaxing the dowry out.
Of course, Bai Liu's temperament is soft, which is inseparable from Bai Sanshu's foolishness and filial piety.
If only Bai Sanshu could protect his wife, Bai Liu wouldn't be bullied so badly.
As soon as the two sisters met, they had endless things to talk about. They had dinner together at noon. They were all of the same generation, so there was no need to be restrained. They even drank some wine.
Baicao was carried back after drinking too much, while Bai Ling had a conversation with Yang Fan in the pavilion.
"Eldest brother-in-law is not often in the capital. As the daughter-in-law of the Yang family, eldest sister should be filial to Mrs. Yang. But eldest brother-in-law, don't forget that eldest sister is still the daughter of the Bai family. I don't want something like that to happen again, otherwise even if
The eldest sister can't bear to leave the eldest brother-in-law, so I will also find a way to make you reconcile."
Bai Ling held the hand stove, looked at Yang Fan coldly, and said solemnly: "My eldest sister's life is not easy. I would rather she hate me than live in dire straits again. I hope my eldest brother-in-law can understand."
"I swear that I will protect Cao'er and never let something like that happen again." Yang Fan pursed his lips and said.
If Mrs. Yang's life had not been easy, Yang Fan might have left the capital directly with Baicao. Although the conditions at the border are not as good as those in the capital, there is no restraint from the elders.
Now, although Mrs. Yang is not happy with Baicao, she also promises that she will not do anything to Baicao again. Yang Fan cannot do anything about it.
However, Baicao had been wronged after all. During the time that Yang Fan was in the capital, he had always taken great care of Baicao and wanted to make up for the debt she suffered from the Yang family.
Even if Yang Fan has to leave one day, he will leave behind someone who can protect Baicao and prevent her from being left alone.
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, all government offices began to operate normally.
After procrastinating for several days, the governor of Jingzhao finally made up his mind to settle the case truthfully and submit it to the authorities.
The Minister of Punishment was puzzled and couldn't figure out why Jingzhao Prefect did this, but he didn't come to inquire. He didn't dare to stop the closing statement, but privately sent a letter to the Minister of Libu.
, which can be regarded as fulfilling the etiquette of colleagues.
"The Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture is quite interesting. He dares to expose Hu Qianrou's actions to the public. It seems that there will be some turmoil in the officialdom." After receiving the news, Bai Ling said with a half-smile and told Haitang:
: "Pay more attention to Mr. Hu, Mr. Hu is afraid that this debt will be settled on me."
Hu Qianrou's reputation was completely ruined. Some people originally sympathized with her, but now they only scolded her and reaped the consequences.
Although Hu Qianrou did not harm anyone in the end and was sent to the family temple by Master Hu first. As long as Bai Ling did not pursue the case, she would not go to jail again, but Master Hu's good reputation for so many years was also ruined.
Who would believe that Mr. Hu was a good official if he could raise such a vicious daughter? Didn't he even see the emperor reprimanding him in court and fined him a salary?
In the first month of the year, unless we have a very good relationship, it is not convenient for us to be our guests.
Bai Ling couldn't keep delaying the promise she made to those young gentlemen, so she asked Bai Xiaoshan and Liu Xusheng to entertain the young gentlemen in her name. The original promise must be fulfilled.
Because Jingzhao Prefect has been following up on the case, Bai Ling specially prepared a medicinal jade and thirty health pills for Jingzhao Prefect.
Naturally, the Minister of Punishment also wanted to give a gift, but he gave up halfway, so the thank-you gift he gave was only a 300-year-old ginseng plant, plus thirty health pills.
A hundred-year-old ginseng is rare, and a three-hundred-year-old ginseng is even more valuable, but it is nothing to Bai Ling. There is no shortage of these things in the space.
But compared to the piece of medicinal jade from Jingzhao Prefecture, ginseng is not so precious.
As for the young masters who appeared in the restaurant that day, Bai Ling not only gave them ten health-preserving pills, but also gave them a bottle of high-quality gold sore medicine, which contained detoxifying ingredients, but it was not as effective as the detoxifying pills.
Bai Xue had been paying attention to everything about Bai Ling. When she learned that she was a blessing in disguise and that Bai Xiaoshan and Liu Xusheng were also connected to so many noble men, she was so angry that she almost forgot to pretend.
"Bai Ling, I don't believe that your luck has always been so good. Just wait, sooner or later I will make you kneel down and beg me!" Bai Xue clenched her fists to prevent her anger from leaking out.
The third prince is certainly nostalgic for Bai Xue's body, but Bai Xue's 'sensible and calm' nature is not the reason why the third prince is willing to come to her side? (To be continued)
