"Bai Jingtian was unwilling to take action, so the Li family went to find Hu Yuntian. Hu Yuntian agreed and deliberately lost to Bai Jingtian at the Xinglin Conference and disappeared from sight. In the eyes of outsiders, he was disheartened after losing and retired to the mountains.
Some people say that he died of depression. In fact, he quietly went to Li's house and has been treating the lady at Li's house."
Xiao Sheng continued.
"Bai Jingtian later learned the truth and was filled with shame and anger, which led to his death in depression." Xiao Sheng looked at the Bai family and sighed, "Oh, he did it for the Bai family and for you descendants. You can't blame him for this.
He. But it makes even less sense for you to blame the Li family."
After hearing this, the Bai family felt mixed emotions in their hearts.
Bai Juntang couldn't help but said: "I can't figure it out. It's just to see a doctor. No matter who he is or what his background is, how can it affect the doctor? Our Bai family has treated so many people for hundreds of years, including princes, nobles, and criminal thieves.
There are three religions and nine schools of thought, who doesn’t? I haven’t seen any influence on the Bai family. Why doesn’t my eldest brother dare to treat the young lady of the Li family? Although my eldest brother is conceited, he is a benevolent doctor and never treats people based on their origins.
This matter is unreasonable and not in line with my brother’s temperament!”
His words touched the hearts of the Bai family.
Bai Juntang added: "After Hu Yuntian's treatment, the Hu family has not done well. Isn't it still the king of medicine in Jiangnan and the number one in Qiantang?"
Xiao Sheng said: "The Hu family is fine. That's because Hu Yuntian made arrangements to retire in advance and cut off his relationship with the Hu family. After that, he also retired from the world and never appeared in the world again."
"It's not about going into seclusion, it's about dying." Li Muchen suddenly said.
"Dead?" Everyone was shocked.
"How do you know?" Xiao Sheng asked in surprise.
Li Muchen said: "He was buried at the bottom of the well, and his resentful soul was sealed with magic. I personally fished out the body and buried it. If I hadn't discovered it, he would have suffered from the evil spirit that took away his soul forever. Even though he is dead, he will still be alive.
Like sinking into purgatory.”
Everyone in the room couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
How much hatred is there to deal with a person like this, not letting him go even if he dies, but also letting the remaining resentment of his soul suffer?
Li Muchen was also devastated. He did not expect that Hu Yuntian had made such a big sacrifice for the Li family.
He originally thought he was being implicated just because he was treating his mother's illness, but it turned out that he had already anticipated the consequences and was prepared to die.
Bai Jingting just couldn't figure out how his father, Bai Jingtian, could retreat in fear of difficulties with his character. He couldn't even understand why his father broke off relations with the Li family for this reason.
It wasn't until he heard Li Muchen talk about Hu Yuntian's ending that he finally understood his father's difficulties. He had sacrificed his own reputation to save the entire Bai family.
It is conceivable that if the father had not refused at the beginning, then it was not Hu Yuntian who died in the sinking well, but Bai Jingtian. And the entire Bai family was likely to be implicated because of this.
No wonder that after the accident in the Li family, his father became depressed and fell ill. This was because he felt guilty, ashamed of the teachings of the sages and the conscience of doctors.
Bai Jingting sighed, bowed and saluted Li Muchen, and said: "Master Li, my father had no choice but to do this. He did it for the Bai family and for us unworthy descendants. I apologize to you for my disrespect just now, and also on my behalf."
My father and the Bai family apologize to the Li family."
Bai Jingting's magnanimity and loyalty made Li Muchen very fond of him.
At first, the Bai family gave him a very bad impression. From the moment he entered the Baicaotang gate, he felt arrogance and pretentiousness from beginning to end, until Bai Jingting appeared.
He quickly supported Bai Jingting and said, "Master Bai, there's no need to be like this. These are old things. Just talk about it. Your father didn't do anything wrong, and you guys didn't do anything wrong either. There's no need to apologize."
Bai Juntang laughed loudly on the side: "That's right, just let it go. The Bai and Li families have been friends for a long time. Now that they are rekindling their old friendship, the bet just now will be treated as a joke. Hahahaha..."
Li Muchen frowned slightly.
He doesn't necessarily want the two shares of Baicaotang, but a bet is a bet, and friendship is friendship. These are two different things.
What's more, the friendship between the Bai and Li families ended the moment Bai Jingtian refused to treat his mother. There was no friendship at all between Li Muchen and the Bai family.
Except for Bai Jingting, everyone else in the Bai family is too arrogant. These two percent shares can kill their arrogance.
Li Muchen did not speak, but looked at Bai Jingting.
If Bai Jingting means the same thing, then he will leave immediately. No matter how many shares the Bai family gives him, he won't want them anymore. But there is no need to mention the restoration of the Bai and Li families.
When the Jingli Group officially takes over the capital, then it will not ask for 20% of the shares, but will want the Baicaotang brand to be named Li.
Even if the Li family doesn't need it, in order to repay Hu Yuntian's kindness, he can give Baicaotang to the Hu family and merge the northern and southern medical sects into one family.
Li Muchen's eyes were slightly cold, and Bai Jingting felt an inexplicable chill.
He said sternly: "Uncle Wu, this is not a joke. No amount of money can buy the reputation of the Bai family. Mr. Li deserves these 20% of the shares. In the future, the Li and Bai families will rebuild their old friendship and there will be more and more in-depth cooperation."
.I believe Mr. Li will be able to revive the Li family and restore its past glory."
Boss Hou nodded secretly after hearing this, saying to himself that despite Bai Jingting's appearance of being loyal and honest, in fact, he was clear-minded in his heart. No wonder he could become the head of the Bai family.
In comparison, although Mr. Bai Wu is of high seniority and well-known in the capital, his magnanimity and style are much smaller.
Thinking of this, Boss Hou didn't care so much about the fifth master Bai, who had a very high status in the circle. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart: The fifth son of the Bai family is nothing more than that!
But when he thought about it, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat. He didn't know how he had such an idea. Just before today, among the people he knew in Beijing, when it came to Bai Wuye, who wouldn't pick Brother Thumb?
Bai Juntang curled his lips and disagreed with Bai Jingting's statement. He still thought that his eldest nephew was too honest. But he was the head of the family and it was hard for him to say anything after the head of the family had spoken.
"Jingting, as you said just now, the bet was on the 20% of your house's shares. You don't want to dilute our shares!" Bai Baijuntang reminded.
Bai Fangxing, who had been silent all this time, snorted angrily and said, "Lao Wu, what are you talking about? We are all a family, we share blessings and share hardships, so why should we be divided between you and me?"
Bai Juntang was a little afraid of Bai Fangxing and said: "Look at what you said, third brother, I am also thinking about the other brothers in the family! You are a monk in Baiyunguan. You don't know how tired it is to take care of your family.
It’s not easy, but everyone just lives on the dividends. Unlike Jingting, he is the head of the family and the most famous doctor in the capital, so he can’t be hungry.”
Bai Juntang spoke softly and moved all the Baiyun Temple out, leaving Bai Fangxing speechless.
Bai Fangxing was not happy to begin with, because he had to bear more than half of the responsibility for the shares he lost today, but he had already become a monk and had no shares in the Bai family, let alone the Baiyunguan property, so he could only worry.
Bai Jingting smiled and said: "Third uncle, fifth uncle, you don't need to say anything. This was originally a bet made with my 20% shares, and it will never affect the rest of the Bai family. Okay, this matter is over here, no one can
Don’t mention it again.”
At this time, his majesty as the head of the family was finally revealed. With one sentence, all the Bai family members were shut up.
