The matter was not complicated, just doing business with three Turkic merchants.
Sangsang said that Brother Bai only allowed three Turks to go into the mountains to collect herbs, but he did not say where the herbs would be used.
Sangsang didn't know the origins of the three Turks, but he and Brother Bai's backgrounds were clear.
Speaking of the later, Sang Sang fell into memories. The little bits and pieces of her time with Brother Bai could not attract Li Shuwang's attention. Sang Sang talked about it herself, full of longing.
Li Shuwang's injury showed signs of recurrence. Listening to Sang Sang's story, he slumped on the ground and tried to adjust his breathing.
She didn't completely care about Sangsang's words, but the look of Sangsang's longing-filled little woman gave people a sense of tranquility.
This is the most ordinary girl from a civilian family, and she really cannot be associated with a Turkic spy.
Li Shuwang began to believe in Sang Sang, but in his heart he would not believe in that lewd thief!
After listening to what Sangsang said, I had more doubts in my heart.
"Since you grew up with that lewd thief, have you ever seen where he studied medicine? You said that he is a weak scholar who never quarrels with others, but how do you explain why he caused trouble in court today?"
Sang Sang pressed her wound, frowning and recalling: "Brother Bai said that after he joined the Lin family, he had to take care of Miss Lin every day, and he learned some medical skills under his influence."
"Some medical skills? He knows more than just these medical skills! His skills are quite good, and I'm afraid many famous doctors can't compare with them! There is something wrong with your big brother Bai!"
"Brother Bai... He has indeed changed a lot... After getting married, he seems to have become a different person..."
Li Shuwang had an idea: "Maybe the Brother Bai in your memory is dead, and the current Bai Song is not the Brother Bai you know at all. He is a Turkic spy and a despicable and shameless thief!"
"No... no!" Sangsang shook his head repeatedly, "Although Brother Bai has changed a little, he is still Brother Bai. He will not collude with the Turks, nor will he be a spy. He will not be a thief, Bai."
Brother is the kindest and most upright person in the world..."
When it comes to Brother Bai's kindness, Sangsang can't stop praising him. Even though he is very weak and has difficulty speaking, his eyes always shine with light.
"Brother Bai, Brother Bai...shut up, you woman! I don't want to hear these three words again!"
Li Shuwang felt inexplicably irritable, and he shouted lowly, which affected the energy and blood in his body, and blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
"You...you vomited blood again..."
"Don't...don't be hypocritical...I don't need your attention!"
Li Shuwang stood up with difficulty, not wanting to listen to this woman or killing her again.
Holding the sword, he walked towards the entrance of the alley step by step.
After walking only two steps, Li Shuwang suddenly became weak and passed out at the entrance of the alley.
…
Bai Song has returned to Lin Mansion.
Entering through the back door, Butler Liu immediately dismissed the accompanying servants, and then took Bai Song to the study room in the back hall.
In the study, Lin Ting was sitting in front of the desk with a livid face, and his sister Bai Rou was kneeling at the door with her head bowed and her face equally ugly.
When this girl saw Bai Song, she was still full of energy as usual. She only cast a faint look, and then continued to lower her head.
The atmosphere in the study was very solemn. Bai Song's eyes met Lin Ting's and they quickly narrowed their eyes.
He knew that things would not go well today, but Butler Liu kept a low profile all the way, which showed that the father-in-law did not want this matter to be known to outsiders.
Nowadays, accountability is indispensable, but it is no longer in the main hall, but in the unmanned study room, which further proves this point.
"Kneel down..."
Lin Tingzheng glanced at Bai Song and squeezed out two words.
Bai Song ignored her at all. Instead, he pulled the sister beside him up. While patting the dust on her body, he whispered: "Get up, you didn't make a mistake."
"Brother..." Bai Rou gave him a weak look.
As soon as the words came out, there was a crisp sound in the direction of Lin Ting.
The brand new celadon tea cup hit the ground and broke into pieces. Lin Tingzheng shouted angrily: "You are so brave! I want you to kneel down!"
Faced with Lin Tingzheng's anger, Bai Song remained calm and asked: "Why are you kneeling? If you are my father-in-law, it is understandable for my son-in-law to kneel down. However, I have been in the Lin family for a long time, and Mr. Lin can't do it for a moment."
Should I be regarded as the son-in-law of the Lin family?"
"Someone is coming! Someone is coming!"
Lin Ting was angry, his beard was smoking, and he said to himself that he had never looked at this person in the eyes, but he didn't expect this guy to be so arrogant.
Outside the study, two servants were on standby. As soon as they heard the message from the master, they entered without saying a word with long sticks, and restrained Bai Song on the left and right.
"Brother...what are you going to do? Let my brother go!"
Bai Rou screamed at the side, but she was too thin and was easily stopped by Butler Liu.
Faced with this situation, Bai Song did not panic too much, and had even anticipated such a situation.
At this moment, Bai Song had no one to rely on, but he was born with pride, and he did not have to be prepared to face everything.
Bai Song was worried and shouted: "This matter has nothing to do with my little sister! If you have anything to do with me, come at me! I broke the rules by leaving the house privately. According to the rules of your Lin family, I will hit you if you want to!"
"Even now, things are still so rampant! Do you think what happened today is just as simple as you leaving the house privately?!"
"Other than this, what else am I wrong with?"
"Now the entire Mang County is full of rumors about my Lin family's son-in-law and a daughter from a private family! My Lin family's face will be completely lost by you!"
"How can we take the rumors from the outside seriously? I went out today to save people. Besides, I said it in front of all the people in the county government. Sangsang and I are like brothers and sisters. The Qu family and his wife treat me like a son. The children of the Lin family should take responsibility.
,How can you stand by and watch this matter?"
Lin Ting was stunned for a moment when he was told that a boy from a humble family who was inferior to a servant could actually have so many fallacies.
"You brat! I haven't learned anything else since I came to the Lin family, but my courage has increased a lot."
"I'm just talking about the matter! Mr. Lin, you can't hit me about today's matter! If you hit me, it will be acknowledgment that I have an affair with that private woman. This is the real loss of the Lin family's face. If Mr. Lin really wants to save
With respect to reputation, we should act openly and honestly as if this matter never happened. This is the integrity and mind of a wealthy family. How can it be seen by ordinary people?"
"It's full of nonsense, give it to me..."
Lin Ting was furious and was about to order a beating with a cane, but was suddenly interrupted by Butler Liu.
Butler Liu is a loyal supporter of Lin Tingzheng. He always knows the rules and rarely does anything deviant.
Today in front of Bai Song, Butler Liu appeared to interrupt the family leader, which was an unseemly thing.
Lin Tingzheng was stunned and looked at Butler Liu in surprise, with a bit of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Butler Liu let go of Bai Rou, bent his body to Lin Ting's side, lowered his head and said to his ear: "Master, although this kid is hateful, what he said before is not unreasonable... Look..."
Lin Ting was snorting coldly, waiting for Bai Song, but whispered: "If we are not punished now, and everyone in the Lin family follows the example, how can we control this family?"
"This matter is unusual. I am here to hold accountable the people in the study. I don't want to be too public. The servant who is accompanying me has given instructions, and in court, he also said it in front of many county people. He told the private citizen
Women are brother and sister. Countless people present could hear it clearly. If our Lin family doesn’t believe it, how can we let other family members believe it? This matter is not only related to the reputation of the Lin family, but also to the reputation of the young lady. After driving this son out of the Lin family in the future, the young lady will
What kind of family should I marry again?"
After hearing this, Lin Tingzheng frowned.
All he wanted in his heart was to take this opportunity to drive his surrogate son-in-law out of the Lin family so that his daughter could remarry a child of a well-matched family.
But if this matter spreads, and his daughter becomes a woman that even the poor family members look down upon, and she remarries, which famous family would dare to marry their own daughter?
The affair between my adopted son-in-law and a private woman has not yet been confirmed.
The reputation of the Lin family was not substantially damaged. For the reputation of the Lin family, and more importantly for his own daughter, Lin Tingzheng made another decision in his heart.
Lin Tingzheng was extremely unhappy with what happened today, but he had no other choice at the moment.
After a moment of silence, Lin Tingzheng waved his hand: "Let him go."
The two servants looked at each other, a little surprised. I wonder what Butler Liu told the master to let this boy go?
"Why are you still standing there? Let him go quickly!" Butler Liu reminded.
The servant then panicked and let go.
Bai Song breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Mr. Lin was still a sensible person.
If the other person can stay rational, he can avoid being beaten badly.
A win-win situation that everyone can accept.
Bai Song knew how to advance and retreat, so he bowed down and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lin."
"You made a mistake today by going out privately. I'll write it down for now. If you dare to do it again in the future, you will be punished for both crimes."
Bai Song nodded: "Mr. Lin, if there is nothing else, my son-in-law will leave first."
After saying that, Bai Song was ready to open the door and leave.
But at this moment, Lin Xiang'er trotted into the house with a cry: "Dad... we can't just let him go!"
As soon as Lin Xiang'er appeared, everyone was shocked.
However, Lin Xiang'er's pretty face was stained with tears, and her eyes that should have been starry were turned red from crying.
As soon as they entered the room, before anyone could react, the weak Miss Lin snatched the stick from the servant's hand arrogantly, holding it tightly with both hands, looking at Bai Song, her eyes filled with grievance.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
While talking, Lin Xiang'er held a stick in both hands, rounded it and hit Bai Song on the back.
Although Lin Xiang'er had little strength, the stick was solid. This sudden blow made Bai Song stagger and almost fall down.
When Bai Rou saw this, she quickly stopped in front of Lin Xiang'er and reached out to grab the stick in Lin Xiang'er's hand.
The two women were at each other's throats, and neither of them could give in. The young lady's cries became louder and louder, making the scene extremely chaotic.
"Hurry! Grab the stick quickly, what a shame!" Lin Tingzheng shouted loudly.
The two servants and Butler Liu joined in the chaos and managed to wrest the stick from the young lady's hand.
"Miss, what are you doing?"
Lin Xiang'er was empty-handed, and after a pause, full of grievances, she turned around and ran away crying.
Bai Song's back was in burning pain, but he was beaten inexplicably. He didn't expect that he had not escaped the beating from his wife.
What is this thing called?
She was beaten with a stick, but her daughter-in-law cried so sadly that Bai Song couldn't get angry, but was a little worried.
Bai Song said nothing, just looked at Lin Xiang'er's running back, and then waited for Lin Ting to speak.
Lin Ting was frowning when he suddenly sighed: "Hey, everyone, please step back."
Bai Song left quickly and arrived in the courtyard. Thinking about Lin Xiang'er's behavior, he felt even more strange.
"This girl doesn't really like me anymore, does she?"
