Now that Bai Ershu has been fired by his employer, where can he deal with those people in the future?
Bai Qishi didn't dare to speak nonsense, fearing that Bai Ershu would lose his temper, so she asked: "Master, our house has been ransacked, and all my silver and jewelry have been taken away. You also know my mother's temper. I want to
It's not easy to get money from her, what should we do in the future?"
Bai Ershu had a sullen expression and said nothing, but his eyes became more and more cruel. He didn't know if he had thought of some solution or if he had nothing but anger.
Seeing this, Mrs. Bai Qi put on her clothes and lay down. She was beaten until she was covered in bruises, but no one applied the medicinal wine, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
At the end of the second day, the ancestral hall.
Because the people of the old house were to be interrogated in the ancestral hall, the clan chiefs and elders went to the ancestral hall early to burn incense and explain their intentions to the ancestors. It was inevitable that they would have to confess their crimes.
According to the rules, women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, and even if they are interrogated, they can only kneel in the courtyard.
Bai Sanshu and the Bai Ling sisters came here early. As a sufferer and a descendant of the Bai family, Bai Sanshu was naturally qualified to enter the ancestral hall, while the two sisters were sitting in the yard.
Bai Xing didn't dare to see anyone, so she couldn't come to a place with so many people, so Bai Liu took Bai Xiaoshan to stay with her at home.
At the beginning of Sishi, two strong men surnamed Bai carried Bai Ershu to the ancestral hall. Mrs. Bai and several women were also stared at by the mother-in-law.
As Bai Mei's accomplice who abducted Bai Xing, she was pushed to her knees. Bai Qishi and Mrs. Bai were both protecting her, so they had to stand behind Bai Mei.
"Bai Ershu, can you plead guilty?" The patriarch cleared his throat and asked Bai Ershu.
"Plead guilty?" Bai Ershu laughed wildly, "What crime do I plead guilty to? My mother agreed to sell that bitch, and I just helped give it away. Is it illegal for a nanny to sell his own granddaughter?"
Old Mrs. Bai's unwillingness to redeem her gave Bai Ershu a good excuse, and he would not feel sorry at all for betraying Old Mrs. Bai.
"Bullshit on your mother, when did I agree? I don't know anything. You are a black-hearted person and you still want to drag me into the water. How come you weren't beaten to death!" Old Mrs. Bai shouted cursingly.
"Without Mom's consent, how could I, an uncle, dare to sell my niece in the next room and ask my daughter to bring her out?" Bai Ershu sneered, "Besides, Mom wanted to sell Bai Xing in order to provide money for her.
The eldest brother is doing favors to promote relationships, and if he really betrays someone, I, Bai Ershu, won’t be able to get a good deal, so why should I do such a thankless thing?”
Bai Ershu understands Old Mrs. Bai's weakness better than anyone else.
Now only Dafang and his family are promising. Old Mrs. Bai will not just watch something happen to Dafang, so she can only share the blame.
Mrs. Bai was indeed wilted. Although she couldn't figure out the consequences of being involved in the big house, she also knew it wouldn't be a good thing.
The family has lost more than half of its money. If something happens to the big house again...
Old lady Bai was excited and immediately understood the seriousness of it. She shouted at the top of her voice: "This matter has nothing to do with the boss. I asked the second brother to sell Bai Xing. I, a nurse, can't I be the master?"
A bunch of sick ghosts can save food by selling one of them, and I am doing it for their own good."
The more Mrs. Bai talked, the more she felt that she was right, and her back straightened up a bit.
However, except for Old Mrs. Bai herself, everyone else wanted to smack their lips and looked at Old Mrs. Bai like they were looking at a monster.
"Mom, we have separated." Bai Sanshu said feebly, not knowing what to say other than this.
The village chief also explained at this time: "The documents for the separation of Sanshu's family have been filed with the county government, which is recognized by the government. Since the separation, Bai Sanshu's room has been a separate small family.
Unless they want to sell their son or daughter, no one can make the decision."
The clan leader and clan elders knew this, so they all nodded.
"Ms. Yao, you admit that the abduction and trafficking of Bai Xing was your decision, and the second room was responsible for selling the people?" the clan leader asked in a deep voice.
When Mrs. Bai suddenly heard someone calling her Yao, she was stunned for a moment, and then nodded indifferently.
The clan leader and the clan elders had actually discussed what to do long ago, but there was still a process to go through in front of everyone, so after some discussion, the clan leader said:
"According to the clan rules, unless there is a calamity year and you can no longer survive, you can sell your son or daughter, and you must get the consent of your parents, and you are not allowed to sell your baby to a fire pit. Yao, you marry Bai Bai
When you came home, someone told you the clan rules, but you knowingly violated it, forced Sanfang and his family, and sent Bai Xing to die. After you have given birth to children for so many years, the clan decided to give you a chance to kneel in the ancestral hall.
I have confessed to my ancestors for three days and three nights, and if I do it next time, I will let you go, or I will sink you into the pond!"
"Why!"
Old Mrs. Bai was about to sneak into the ancestral hall with her little feet. She was held back by two women, but she still said with bared teeth and claws:
"I'm selling my granddaughter. What's wrong? If not, it's that unfilial son Bai Sanshu. She's just a little girl. She'll die when she dies. I have to find someone to come back and make the matter so big. If it weren't for Bai Sanshu,
Sanshu, how could my Ershu be beaten like this and be fired by his boss? No, I don’t accept it. You want Bai Sanshu to compensate for my losses, otherwise I will be killed in the ancestral hall.”
Old Mrs. Bai behaved unreasonably and completely ignored the clan leader and others. The angry clan leader and several clan elders became very angry.
Even the villagers outside who were watching the excitement looked at Old Mrs. Bai in disbelief. Old Mrs. Bai was probably the first person to dare to cause such trouble in the ancestral hall.
Especially since the patriarch has not yet finished speaking about the punishment for the other people. If Old Mrs. Bai makes trouble like this, the people behind her will only be in bad luck. How can she be such an elder?
Bai Sanshu looked at Old Mrs. Bai sadly, his eyes becoming more and more disappointed, and finally he closed his eyes and stopped looking at Old Mrs. Bai.
"Nai, this is an ancestral hall." Bai Ling said softly.
"Damn girl, how can you speak here? I still don't know this is an ancestral hall?" Old lady Bai screamed, which shocked the eardrums of the two women who were holding her back, and they grabbed her hand with a little force.
It doesn't matter whether Old Mrs. Bai's unrecovered arm will be sprained again.
"It is a rule of the Bai family that anyone who disturbs the ancestral hall will be punished by beating five big boards and kneeling for five days and nights. Those who are serious will be punished..." Bai Ling sighed, but did not finish what he said.
Old Mrs. Bai's face turned pale, and then she remembered that there was such a rule in the clan rules, and couldn't help but feel scared.
"Bai Ling is right, there is indeed such a rule in the clan rules." The village chief answered the words very forcefully, but did not say anything else, otherwise it would be overstepping his authority.
The clan leader and the elders looked at each other and announced in public, "The Yao clan made a big fuss in the ancestral hall, and will be given the lightest punishment according to the clan rules. If you dare to cause trouble again, the punishment will be doubled, and the Bai clan will be banned for the time being!"
Old Mrs. Bai was now weak and did not dare to say another word.
The patriarch was in a bad mood. He glanced at Bai Ershu's family and continued: "Bai Ershu didn't know how to advise his mother and helped Zhou to do evil things that harmed the descendants and reputation of my Bai family. I'll slap you with twenty big boards and punish you."
Stay in the ancestral hall for one year to repent, and the execution will be carried out next month."
Bai Ershu breathed a sigh of relief. This kind of punishment was indeed the lightest in the clan rules, but he was still unwilling to accept it and did not feel that he was at fault. (To be continued)
