Various deeds during the Xiao Sui Ping period are still passed down among the maids and servants.
No matter how many times I tell you about Master Lin's extraordinary performance, I never get tired of hearing about it.
But tonight, the focus of people's attention is not on Master Lin.
But the uncle who was treated as a decoration.
Tonight, the word "display" is really gone!
Tonight's family dinner, the master sent a message asking Bai Song to sit down and have dinner together.
What is this attitude?
Even a fool can see it!
After the Xiao Sui Ping, the Lin family finally accepted this uncle.
"Tsk, tsk... This guy still has to endure it. Look at him, he has survived until now, and the fake has become real."
"Oh, that boy is lucky. Thanks to our young master's success in the small year review, the master is very happy. This can be regarded as clearing his name."
"Why don't he treat me like a master? From now on, I have to address him as my uncle! Haven't you ever heard of someone calling me "Qing Qing" to the young lady? Not only is he the master, but the young lady's heart has already belonged to him."
"Yes, think about how many young men in Mang County were pursuing young ladies. Who would have thought that they would end up in the hands of such a person, and they would actually become a loving couple!"
"Shh... look, our uncle is feeling windy when he walks now."
Several servants were talking about it, but they saw Bai Song coming out of the young lady's courtyard, walking like the wind, walking in front of the young lady, and every part of his body showed signs of embarrassment.
The servants didn't know that the reason why Mr. Lin changed his view on Bai Song lay in the poems he wrote to his son.
Nowadays, no literati is willing to give away his works, let alone a masterpiece?
I didn’t say much about the two previous songs, but today I sent another plum blossom song, which made the young master of the Lin family popular again.
Sooner or later, his son's reputation will be known to the world.
This kind of kindness is far greater than helping the Lin family find sponsorship.
Bai Song also knew the inside story. Lin Tingzheng had to win over Bai Song hard. Even if he gave away his daughter, he couldn't let Bai Song reveal anything.
Lin Tingzheng's change was inevitable, and Bai Song was not surprised either.
It's just that I have been feeling aggrieved in the Lin family for a long time, and today I finally completely changed my identity and status.
No matter who you are, you will feel a sense of accomplishment in your heart at this moment, and you will naturally feel proud and very happy.
"Xianger, I told you that I would impress everyone!"
Bai Song was happy and turned around to hold Xiang'er's little hand.
And Xiang'er doesn't have to be shy about anyone's gaze, she accepts it with a smile and nods sweetly.
"Now that your father and mother have approved of me, you should call me husband more often in the future. I like to hear it."
Xiang'er covered her mouth and smiled softly: "Yes, Mr. Lin... But those are my parents, and they are also Mr. Lin's parents. In the future, Mr. Lin will not be the same as Mr. Lin."
Bai Song scratched his head and said stupidly: "Call...Dad? I...I'm not used to it..."
"Keke... If you don't call me daddy, I won't call you husband-in-law."
"Hey! You don't play like this."
Xiang'er waved her hand and ran forward: "It's up to you, I don't want to call you husband anyway, it's embarrassing..."
Bang!
Suddenly there was a muffled sound from the front yard door.
The young couple who were playing were stunned for a moment and stopped playing.
"What's up?"
Bai Song took a few steps forward and asked.
Xiang'er shook her head, grabbed Bai Song's hand, and wanted to look at the door.
Before taking two steps, a shout came from behind: "Bai Song!"
Bai Song turned around and saw that it was Liu Dabao, the yamen servant!
Bai Song was stunned. How could Liu Dabao appear in Lin Mansion?
Before Bai Song could recover, Liu Dabao came up and caught Bai Song.
"What?"
"Come with me!"
"Why should I follow you?"
"If you want to live, hurry up and follow me!" Liu Dabao's expression was extremely serious. "You, the young master of the Zheng family, were seriously injured and are now on the line between life and death. The head of the Zheng family came with people to arrest you. If you are caught by the Zheng family,
, they will beat you to death directly!"
"What's going on?" Bai Song was confused, "Zheng Xingzhi's life hangs on a thread? Didn't he say he was fine before?"
"I don't know either. Not long ago, the head of the Zheng family found Magistrate Chai and asked the county government to arrest people together. Our county government doesn't dare to go against the Zheng family. The county magistrate has already come with the Zheng family. It's the county magistrate.
Your Excellency secretly ordered me to take you away, don't waste time."
"The county magistrate came to arrest me, but did you ask you to take me away first? What is this?"
"Oops!" Liu Dabao was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, "Stop being so nagging and hurry up!"
"I……"
"Ms. sir!" Xiang'er realized the seriousness of the matter and held on to Bai Song tightly, "You'd better leave with the big brothers around you and come back when the matter is clear."
"But... Xiang'er... I finally got this opportunity..."
"Sir...Xiang'er calls you Mr. Xiang'er, and you will always be Xiang'er's husband..."
"Mr. Bai, don't delay, go out and take shelter first."
Bai Song frowned, thinking that the incident happened suddenly and he was unprepared, so he could only leave from the backyard with Liu Dabao.
Bai Song let go of Xiang'er, went to the woodshed first, and called his sister before leaving the Lin Mansion.
…
At this moment, Zheng Tai'a was furious in the main courtyard of the Lin Mansion and no longer cared about the face of the wealthy family.
"Search for me! Arrest them! Anyone who dares to stop them will be beaten to death!"
Seven or eight servants of the Zheng family rushed into the Lin Mansion with sticks. They had no scruples at all and rushed directly into the backyard.
These people happened to bump into the servants of the Lin family, and actually beat the servants of the Lin family directly in the Lin Mansion.
The Lin family has been around for hundreds of years and has never seen such a crazy person.
Not only did he break into his own home, but he also beat people in front of him in his own home!
"What are you doing?" Butler Liu shouted.
But as soon as he finished speaking, someone struck him in the face with a stick, causing two of his teeth to fall out.
"Bandits! Gangsters..."
Butler Liu was crying on the ground and was about to ask his servants to fight back when he saw the head of the county government coming forward, winking at Butler Liu and shaking his head.
The Zheng family is really angry. This is no joke.
Soon, the Zheng family members began to search everywhere in the Lin Mansion.
Lin Tingzheng also came over and found out what happened and found it a bit strange.
This thing is a little weird. Even if there were internal injuries, why did something suddenly happen when there were no problems in the past few days?
But Lin Tingzheng didn't dare to say anything, knowing that now was not the time to provoke the other party.
But the Zheng family led their servants straight to their own house and beat the people in their own house. This was also a naked humiliation.
Regardless of the outcome, the feud between the two families has been forged.
"We're just asking for people, why bother to mobilize so many troops? If Brother Zheng just says a word, who of our Lin family won't hand it over?"
"Where is your adopted son-in-law?"
Lin Ting was frowning and looked back at Xiang'er.
Lin Xiang'er had already arrived in the courtyard and was hiding in the back. When her father asked, she said, "Bai Song went outside not long ago. My daughter doesn't know what he wants to do..."
Lin Tingzheng frowned even more and asked in a deep voice: "Xiang'er, this is no joke. Where did Bai Song go?"
"Dad, my daughter really doesn't know..."
"Don't know?" Zheng Tai'a sneered, and another servant happened to come to report.
"Sir, the Lin Mansion has searched all over, but the gangster has not been found."
Zheng Tai'a's expression became even colder: "It seems that it's not that I don't know, but that someone wants to protect me!"
Zheng Tai'a walked slowly to Lin Xiang'er and asked in a deep voice: "Let me ask you again, where is the son-in-law?"
"I...I really don't know..."
Snapped!
Zheng Tai'a slapped Lin Xiang'er on the face without any warning, and knocked back the second half of Lin Xiang'er's words.
Everyone trembled and looked in front of them in disbelief.
Mr. Zheng beat Miss Lin!
Lin Xiang'er was dumbfounded, covering her face and standing there blankly.
The little girl had never seen such a battle before. She was so frightened that her face turned pale and she couldn't even cry. She just kept shaking.
Zheng Tai'a gritted his teeth: "Let me ask you one more thing!"
"The surname is Zheng!" Lin Tingzheng yelled, rushed up, pulled his daughter behind him, and pointed at Zheng Tai'a's nose, "The surname is Zheng, are you crazy!"
"What? Brother Lin, are you dissatisfied? Her husband beat my son. If the man doesn't come out, I will beat his woman. What's wrong with that?"
Lin Tingzheng hid his left hand behind his back, pinching his thigh to shake it. He was silent for a long time before asking: "If you find the gangster, do whatever you want! If you come here like this, if he sees him when he comes back, he will be gone long ago.
We can’t hand over anyone!”
"So, the Lin family doesn't plan to make friends with anyone anymore?"
"I'm no longer in the house. Even if you kill me, I won't be able to help you!"
"Very good!" Zheng Tai'a sneered and nodded, "In that case, I won't force you anymore. I hope the Lin family can see the situation clearly. If you encounter the gangster returning, please take the initiative to hand him over. If you are killed by me,
I know that your Lin family intends to protect you, but don’t blame me for not caring about the decades-long friendship between our two families."
Lin Ting's face turned pale and he nodded: "Are you satisfied now?"
Zheng Tai'a smiled: "I'm satisfied, let's go!"
"Stop!" A scream came from the crowd. Mother Lin pushed aside a few people and rushed to Zheng Tai'a, "You are satisfied, I am not!"
"Mrs. Lin..."
As soon as Zheng Tai'a opened his mouth, Mother Lin slapped Zheng Tai'a in the face.
Snapped!
The crisp sound was exactly the same as when my daughter was beaten before!
Everyone took a breath of cold air.
Mr. Zheng was slapped by a woman?!
Still caught in public!
This is simply a strange news that shocked the world.
How humiliating is this?
Magistrate Chai didn't want to get involved, but now he couldn't become invisible. He quickly called on several government officials to rush between the two sides. The officials' hands were already on the handles of their swords.
"Hands... handcuff this shrew... to me!"
A government official stepped forward and shackled Mother Lin's feet.
The shackles were originally prepared for Bai Song, but they were used on Mother Lin.
"mother!"
Xiang'er cried and shouted from behind, but was stopped by the servants.
Everyone in the two families knew that this was the county magistrate's decision to step down for both parties.
Mother Lin also knew very well and did not resist at all.
Lin Tingzheng also acquiesced, looking at his wife with a guilty look on his face.
Mother Lin did not look at the person behind her, but stared at Zheng Tai'a, whose face turned dark.
"My surname is Zheng. I am the eldest daughter of the Cui family in Qinghe. In the Lin Mansion, you must be arrogant!"
