But today, if they go with Hu Feng, won’t the Bai Family keep calling them adulterer?
Moreover, she doesn’t want to timidly come and go again and again. She wanted to draw a clear line with the Bai Family and then go.
To walk away clear without any worries.
Bai Zhi shook her head and said to Hu Feng: “Hu Feng, thank you for your kindness. Bai Family is our home. It was windy and raining yesterday, so we had to go and stay at your place. I will tidy up the cabin, so people could stay there anytime.”
Hu Feng was not worried about that. He was worried about that if they stay, the Bai Family will use their ruthless hands against them again. Things will be bad more by then.
Bai Zhi had seen his concerns, so she smiled and said: “Rest a.s.sured, I am not easy to bully, people who died once, has nothing more to fear, right? If anyone wants us dead, I will make sure to bring them together in our funeral.” When she said those words, Bai Zhi deliberately raised her voice. Listening to this, Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu’s heart skip a beat. Remembering the scene yesterday, she died once and resurrected, so they felt cold in their back.
Hu Feng nodded his head and swept his eyes over the collapsed wooden house. Thinking about the arguments earlier, he estimated that no one will help her to repair their house. And so, he pulled up his sleeves and said: “I will help you repair.”
Bai Zhi welcomes Hu Feng’s help. Their house was blown away by the wind. And now, it can be seen that their wooden house was more broken than it seems. She was not familiar with this kind of work. Zhao Lan has a broken hand. The Bai Family was off no use, she actually worried about this matter. Since Hu Feng was willing to help, she will naturally accept it.
Old Lady Bai was still distressed with the 6 silver coins. For her, Zhao Lan and Bai Zhi were like needles that stabbed her eyes. If Zhao Lan was not injured, and if this dead girl has no support of Hu Feng. She really wanted to beat them to death.
When Old Lady Bai turned her head, she saw Bai Xiaofeng standing at the door. She hurriedly pulled him inside the house and said: “Xiaofeng, you had read many books, so you know a lot of things than grandmother. So you tell grandma, is what they said is true? If grandma didn’t give the 6 silver coins, Lu Dafu can really complain to the country’s magistrate?”
Bai Xiaofeng was thirteen years old this year. He went to school for two years now. If he pa.s.sed the government exam, he will become a big official. So, he always acted like the master of this house. He never put anyone to his eyes, even his grandmother who loves him the most.
“Grandmother, you are really like an old lake, the IOU has been set, you also pressed your fingerprints. That is an irrefutable evidence. I am just standing in the door, but you didn’t ask me to read it, you just directly pressed your fingerprints. If he really uses the 6 silver coins to take away our house as a compensation, what else can we do?”
Old Lad Bai trembled in anger: “If that Lu Zhangchun really dares to do that, I will risk my life and fight with him.”
Bai Xiaofeng shook his head and sighed: “Grandmother, it’s still better for you to prepare the 6 silver coins. If our Bai Family went to the country’s magistrate, it will affect our face, my examination might also get affected by this in the future.”
Regarding this case, for Old Lady Bai, her grandson was her treasure, but the silver coins were her life!
Yesterday, in order to treat Zhao Lan, she had spent 2 silver coins. But now, they were asking her to spend 6 silver coins? What was the difference of it than taking her life away?
Bai Dabao came over and said to the old lady: “Grandma, I wanted to get married this month, don’t spend all the money that you said was for me. I don’t want to be a bachelor my whole life.”
