Bai Banxia felt sorry for Ma Xiaoyu, so he took ointment from his body and applied it on her. Everyone who saw it was a little sad. Ma Xiaoyu's mother died early. After a stepmother, she has a stepfather. No one in the family loves her.
Not as good as Banxia, an outsider.
The old lady of the Ma family was so frightened that she knelt down when her grandfather drank.
She had heard earlier that the emperor had issued an imperial edict granting marriage. Na Qi Zhen turned out to be the emperor's son, and Bai Banxia was going to marry the prince and become his concubine!
Old Mrs. Ma secretly cried out, she was so scared when she got home, for fear that she would be accused of slandering the royal relatives and losing her head.
So she wanted Ma Xiaoyu to talk to her, but Ma Xiaoyu pointed to her injury and said, "Should I show Banxia like this?"
With a bunch of people surrounding her, she knew it was over, so why should she go around gossiping?
Grandma didn't give her a chance to beg for mercy and admit her mistake easily, so she rushed over and gave her a slap in the face.
"I'll beat you to death, you're such a heartless, long-mouthed woman. I told you to speak ill of my granddaughter, I told you to spread rumors!" Grandma scolded and slapped her face.
Ma Xiaoyu's stepmother tried to stop her, but Zhang Lingzhi hit her on the head with a few slaps.
"No one in the family is good, do you really think that none of us are easy to bully?"
Zhang Lingzhi beat Ma Xiaoyu with so much force that the stepmother Ma Xiaoyu screamed in agony. The onlookers couldn't help but suck in the cold air and felt pain just by looking at her.
"I was wrong, fellow villagers in my hometown, please forgive me this time." Old Mrs. Ma huddled up and begged for mercy hurriedly.
"Isn't this your first time? If I forgive you, doesn't it mean that I will let you continue to harm others? Look at your own granddaughter, you have already harmed others, and you don't know who you want to harm again in the future." Bai Banxia said coldly.
Face said.
Bai Tian winked at his daughter and said, "This matter must be reported to the government. The government will deal with it when the time comes. She will be beheaded if she spreads rumors and slanders like this."
Zhang An also echoed: "Indeed, slandering the prince and his concubine is indeed a serious crime."
Mr. Ye Qi sighed, "This man must be measured in what he says and does. Some things cannot be said carelessly. You are harming the whole family."
At this time, Ma Xiaoyu's father rushed to him and said, "It has nothing to do with us. It's my mother who refused to listen and had to go out and talk nonsense. There are a lot of things happening every day, so don't let us get in trouble."
Mrs. Ma was dumbfounded. She looked at her son for a long time and was speechless.
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaoyu's stepmother hurriedly said: "Yes, it has nothing to do with us. As you guys testify, we didn't say a word."
"You, you..." Mrs. Ma almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Does her son and daughter-in-law not care about her life or death now?
"Mom, you can't drag us down. No matter how old you are, you don't stop and cause trouble everywhere. We can't stop you." Ma Xiaoyu's father shouted with a bitter face.
"Yes, Mom, you are not blaming us for the trouble you caused. If you don't feel bad for your son, you also want to think about your grandson, right?" Stepmother Ma Xiaoyu said as she wiped away her tears.
This scene was so ironic that Ma Xiaoyu couldn't help but sneered and uttered one word: "Yes!"
You deserve it!
After Ma Xiaoyu's mother died of illness, her father married her stepmother. Her grandmother disliked her for being a loser and always made her do dirty work and would beat her and scold her at every turn.
Now let her taste the feeling of being rejected by her relatives. Doesn't she always turn to her son and daughter-in-law? Let her see what she gets.
Mrs. Ma collapsed on the ground and cried loudly, "Thousands of Killers, I am your mother, and you treat me like this? Do you want to see me die?"
Some people said that Mrs. Ma deserved it, while others said that Ma Xiaoyu's father and stepmother were not good people. Seeing that the beating was almost done, grandpa winked at the family and said, "Let's spare them for today. Anyway,
Sooner or later the government will come to deal with them, let's go."
You have to beat, but you can't really kill someone. The Zhang family is not stupid. It's not worth getting into a lawsuit for this kind of garbage.
Bai Banxia took Ma Xiaoyu to leave together. In this situation, she would rather Ma Xiaoyu live in Bai's house.
After the Zhang family left, everyone started mocking Mrs. Ma again. Everyone said that Mrs. Ma was so ashamed that she really wanted to find a hole in the ground.
But these were nothing. Mr. Zhang's words, "Sooner or later, the government will come to deal with them" were like a reminder, making her tremble.
That night, everyone in the Ma family except Ma Xiaoyu packed up and ran away. Some people speculated that they went to Mrs. Ma's natal home, while others speculated that they went to Ma Xiaoyu's stepmother's natal home, but only Bai Banxia knew the details.
Case.
Sihai reported the news to Bai Banxia in the middle of the night and asked if the Ma family should be captured after they escaped.
"What are you catching? I just want them to get out." Bai Banxia twitched the corner of her mouth and revealed a sneer. Even she didn't realize that this expression was very similar to someone else's.
Sihai was stunned for a moment, he looked so much like his master.
"When they leave, Xiaoyu can be free, not to mention that they ran away without Xiaoyu." Bai Banxia added.
"Then do you want to deal with them?" Sihai felt that this was too easy for them.
Bai Banxia thought for a while and said: "Forget it, let them fend for themselves."
It is said that they went south, and they probably wouldn't dare to come back easily even if they didn't get along well outside.
Early the next morning, Ma Xiaoyu learned the news and didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
"Oh, they finally left." She laughed, but her smile was uglier than her tears.
Bai Banxia took her hand and said: "Xiaoyu, we can't choose our origin, but we can choose our own path. Now you don't have to work for them anymore, and you don't have to worry about them marrying you off. You can be happy in the future."
It's in your own hands, so you should be happy."
Ma Xiaoyu nodded vigorously, "Yes, it's no big deal. I can be free from now on."
This time she really smiled, and she smiled with great relief.
After breakfast, Mr. Bai mentioned the matter of receiving the imperial edict.
"Grandpa, the imperial edict can only be enshrined and cannot be moved at will. If it is dirty or damaged, your head will be lost. Only when the court sends someone to pick me up can I go to Beijing with the imperial edict." Bai Banxia said.
"Your surname is Bai, how can the imperial edict allow the Zhang family to be released?" Mr. Bai said angrily.
Before my grandfather could leave, he slapped the table with his hand, causing the dishes and chopsticks to jingle.
"We, the old Zhang family, are still here. Are you looking for trouble again? If you are not afraid of losing your head, just go and get it yourself. Don't harm us Banxia."
"You..." Mr. Bai almost lost his breath, and it took him a long time to calm down.
He looked at Bai Banxia, "What are your plans for going to Beijing?"
"My parents have also received rewards, and they will definitely go to Beijing to express their gratitude. In addition, I plan to bring Xiaocao, Xiaoyu, and my apprentice with me." Bai Banxia said.
"When you get married, what will you do without any elders? Your grandma and I will go together," said Mr. Bai.
