Bai Laoer drove the ox cart and Zhao Yalang's mule cart, one after the other, towards the town.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the town government office, I saw fat old men standing at the gate. When they saw Zhao Yalang, they smiled and said hello.
Bai Yunxi was helped out of the bullock cart by his son, and Zhao Yalang introduced him to the two of them.
Wang Xiangshen stared at Baiyunxi and smiled and said,
"Madam Bai is polite. After receiving the news about Zhao Yalang yesterday, she knew that he was a quick and agile person. When we met today, our guess was indeed true."
Knowing that the price was difficult to negotiate, I used roundabout ways to impress him. This kind of thinking can be described as smart.
I didn't expect that a place like the countryside could raise such people. It's really impressive.
"Wang Squire Liao Zan, could you please make a trip."
This fat country squire, dressed in silk clothes, looked like a land father-in-law.
The few people met and greeted each other, then entered the town office together, and were led by Zhao Yalang to go through the transfer procedures.
It should be said that they were all acquaintances of the town government, and the transfer went smoothly. As usual, they paid the money and got the white deed, which was exchanged for the red deed three days later.
After paying the commission, Bai Yunxi said goodbye to Zhao Yalang and Wang Xiangshen, and got on the bullock cart to go home.
When passing by Baohe Hall, I saw a circle of people gathered around the door. The lobby was bustling with people, some crying and some roaring, making it look like a vegetable market.
Even most of the streets were blocked, making it impossible for oxcarts to pass.
Bai Yunxi frowned, was this a medical incident?
There were too many people watching the excitement, so Bai Yunxi told his son to drive carefully to avoid hitting anyone.
"Give way, be careful not to touch me."
Bai Laoer held the reins and drove the car while greeting the people around him.
Bai Yunxi looked around Baohe Hall. They were all people peeping out to see the excitement. They all had a strong sense of gossip, and they were curious but did not dare to get too close.
Baiyunxi tilted her head and looked at the old lady approaching the bullock cart.
"Sister-in-law, what happened to Baohe Hall?"
The old lady carrying the basket turned to look at Baiyunxi, and came closer in a low voice, "Baohetang is fine. Something happened to Zhao Bazi. I heard that he destroyed the roots of his descendants. I am asking Doctor Cheng for treatment."
Baiyunxi: "..."
The old lady looked at Bai Yunxi's shocked expression and moved closer.
"To say that this is all retribution, Zhao Bazi has done so many bad things in the town. He has forcibly married eight concubines. I heard that he is preparing to marry his ninth concubine. At night, he is with a few gangsters at the restaurant.
We were celebrating, but unexpectedly something happened."
"Ah? Was he beaten?" Bai Yunxi covered his mouth with a handkerchief, curious.
"It's not that he was beaten, it's because God couldn't bear to see it and it was retribution. Zhao Bazi fell into a ditch on the way back from drinking. By chance, he hit a stone and broke into pieces."
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, another head came over and added mysteriously.
"My aunt is wrong. Hitting a rock is a trivial matter. The main thing is getting stuck in a tree and being skewered."
Bai Yunxi's eyes widened when she heard the two people's excited tone, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
Is that girl Wenyou so aggressive?
Listening to the lively whispers of several people, Bai Anyan, who was sitting in the front, almost lost his eyes out of the window. He glanced down and felt a chill under his crotch, and subconsciously tightened his legs.
"Don't believe it, ma'am. I was near Baohe Hall just now. I heard a few words and the doctor said that it can only bandage the wound, but it cannot heal the roots of descendants."
"Tsk tsk... The Zhao family is just a single seedling, so now it is considered as if there are no descendants."
"It's not that good. After marrying so many concubines, it's hard to tell if you only have one baby."
Bai Yunxi looked at the shouting tone in Baohe Hall, shook her head, and urged her second son to drive home.
She won't join in the excitement to save herself from trouble.
It wasn't until he left the town that Bai Anyan put the reins on the cow's back and told it to go home.
Looking back at my mother with a thoughtful look on her face, I asked the question in my heart,
"Mom, do you think Zhao Bazi will vent his grievances on Chunhua?"
"Why do you ask?"
Baiyunxi was stunned when he heard the second son's tone. Why did he just fall into the ditch and care about Chunhua?
"Ahem~, the Zhao family father and son are not good people at first glance. Zhao Ba's son is disabled, and it happened the day before he married Chunhua. Whenever a similar situation occurs, many people will think that the woman is a loser."
Listening to the explanation of the second child, Bai Yunxi was surprised for a moment, "The Zhao family and his son should not have time to think about this right now. What they should do is seek medical advice."
As for whether I will think about it in the future, it’s hard to say right now.
But what the second child thinks is not unreasonable. In today's world, women are a vulnerable group and need to depend on men for their lives.
Once something bad happens to a man and he can't find a solution, even to vent his anger, he will blame his misfortune on his partner.
Bai Anyan listened to his mother's explanation, but still felt uneasy. The world was especially cruel to poor people, and he had seen those who bullied others many times.
"Mom, Chunhua is hiding in our house. If the Zhao family and his son find out, will it hurt us?"
Listening to the second child's worries, Bai Yunxi looked at him again and pondered for a moment.
"It's true that Zhao Li and his son are not good people. But if he wants to find someone to vent his anger, he has to see if the other person can afford to offend him... From the day Zhao Li brought people to our house to take over the house, the feud between us was forged.
Got off."
In the past, that person might have dealt with them without hesitation, but now he really didn't dare.
Putting aside the fact that Wenyou could go greet their family, Xiao Wu's reputation as a young scholar alone made him jealous. Now that Xiao Wu has become a famous teacher, this matter has already spread around.
No matter how domineering the Zhao family and his son are, they only rely on the power of Squire Ma. They are just eagle dogs raised by the Ma family.
How could a man like Squire Ma, who was so snobbish and adaptable to the wind, offend a risky person for the sake of a hawk dog?
At present, no matter what angle you consider, the Zhao family and his son do not dare to cause trouble easily.
Thinking of this, Bai Yunxi looked at the second child with a sad look on his face, curved the corners of his lips,
"This is the reason why I always ask you to work hard. As long as you are strong, others will not dare to take action easily even if they hate you so much that their teeth ache."
After listening to his mother's reminder, Bai Anyan raised his head and nodded in agreement after a while.
"Mom is right. After my fifth brother was admitted as a scholar, our family's confidence has indeed increased."
"It will be completely safe when Xiaowu passes the examination."
At the moment, they are just pretending to be powerful, and they are borrowing the Zhang family's advantage invisibly. Only when Xiaowu passes the exam can he be able to completely suppress all the squires and landlords around him.
Juren belong to the reserve force and can wait for official appointment. Under normal circumstances, no one is stupid enough to provoke Juren's family.
At that time, Squire Ma was willing to lend money to Lao Juren without interest. He also wanted to have many backers and profit after his success, so he would invest heavily.
