Farmhouse Qiaofei

Chapter 227

"I...I..." Bai Chuanqiang stammered, but couldn't finish his sentence.

At this time, the last prisoner also came out, and two yamen servants came over and closed the gate of the county yamen heavily.

"This...why is the door closed? Our second child hasn't come out yet." Elder Bai was a little anxious and was going to knock on the door, but Bai Chuanqiang held his hand.

"Father..." he said with some confusion, "Second Brother...Second Brother...can't come back..."

As soon as these words came out, old man Bai's body shook again, and his mood, which had just recovered, fell to the bottom again.

After a long time, he said with trembling hands, "Boss...why...why can't you come back? Your brother doesn't know anything, you can be fine, why can't he come back?"

It was precisely because of this thought that old man Bai was so happy after seeing Bai Chuanqiang.

Because Bai Chuanqiang was the one who really came into contact with private salt, and he was fine, so Bai Chuanlian must be fine.

But now, Bai Chuanqiang's hesitant expression, as well as the heavily closed door, all told Mr. Bai that Bai Chuanlian really couldn't come back.

In an instant, old man Bai rolled his eyes and passed out.

Bai Chuanbai felt sorry for Old Man Bai, so he hurried over to hug Old Man Bai's body, and pinched him.

After about a dozen breaths, old man Bai woke up leisurely, opened his eyes and cried bitterly, "Second...Second..."

Although Bai's second son is greedy, lazy and loves to gamble, and he did many things that made his heart and lungs hurt before, but that is his own son after all, old man Bai never thought that his second son would be one step ahead of him leave.

"Second..." He cried bitterly, "Why didn't I, the old bastard, go first... Why did you go first...Second...I'll give you all my wine, I'll let you Gambling, how about you come back... second child..."

The wailing and howling caused everyone to burst into tears.

Among them, several children of Sun and Erfang were crying out of breath.

In this day and age, life without a man and without a father is too difficult.

"Second..." Old Man Bai cried for a long time, until he lost his strength, and then rolled his eyes and passed out.

Bai Chuanbai saw that everyone in the Bai family seemed to have no backbone, and they were running around in a panic, so he took the initiative to pick up old man Bai, put him in his own carriage, turned his head and said to everyone, "Hurry up and go home... ..."

After finishing speaking, he drove the carriage to Bai's house in Qingshan Hutong, but unexpectedly found that the originally clean Bai's house was in a mess.

Bai Chuanbai was about to rush in with a look of surprise, but was stopped by Bai Shao.

"Father, it's impossible to be robbed in broad daylight. Uncle's money was obtained by smuggling salt. Since the county sheriff can behead so many people, even the head magistrate, he should also search the prisoner's home." " Bai Shao analyzed calmly, "Let's wait at the door."

Afterwards, the two of them waited at the door without going in.

After about tea time, members of the Bai family came in a rented donkey cart, and they were stunned when they saw the wide open door and the messy scene in the yard.

Bai Chuanqiang was the first to rush in, checked left and right, and dug up the small treasury he had hidden in the garden, and found in despair that there was nothing there.

The house was dug three feet into the ground, and not even a copper coin was left behind.

Others, such as valuable hairpins, are all gone.

Even Liu's early dowry was taken away, the entire Bai family now only has a few worthless rags, and some pots and pans, everything else is gone.

"God..." Bai Chuanqiang cried and knelt down, "This is God's death..."

"My hairpin, that's my mother's dowry..." Mrs. Liu ran into her room, turned around, and cursed angrily, "God damn it, it's all mine, my dad The dowry my mother gave me, I took it all away, I took it all away..."

"There's nothing left..." Sun's eyes were red and swollen, she stared blankly at the messy room, finally picked up a piece of Bai Chuanlian's clothes from the ground, put it in front of her face, and cried silently, "I despise you for the most part In my life, why did I suddenly leave... Suddenly I left..."

Now the entire Qingshan Hutong Bai Family is in chaos, all valuables are gone, and worthless things are scattered everywhere, and there are also damaged and torn ones. In short, it is like a looting.

Of course, this is not more frightening. What is even more frightening is that after everyone has been busy for most of the day and packed up their things, they suddenly remembered that it was only a few days before the rent in the yard was paid.

"Are we moving back to Shilipu again?" Mrs. Liu said blankly, "I don't want to go back...I don't want to go back..."

As she said that, she turned her head and looked at Bai Shao's father and daughter who had been helping to pack things, her eyes flickered and she asked, "Third brother...you are so rich, can you help me pay the rent for this yard? Or, let me live at your house, just give me a hut... San, I don't want to go back to Shilipu, can you do it?"

Bai Chuanbai lowered his head in embarrassment, not knowing how to reply.

Don't look at how soft and eloquent she is now, Bai Chuanbai knows that with Liu's character, as long as she moves into Liushan Hutong, the Bai family will never have any peaceful days.

Besides, if one Liu family can move in, can the rest of the Bai family be rejected?

If everyone is allowed to move there, what will become of the Bai family in Liushan Hutong?
What has become of their hard-working separation?
Therefore, he really didn't want to agree to Liu Shi, but his own personality made him not good at refusing, so he could only lower his head and try his best to avoid Liu Shi's gaze and answer questions.

"Third, answer me." Mrs. Liu still refused to let go.

At this moment, the old man Bai who had passed out finally woke up leisurely. He came out of the house and just heard these two words from Mrs. Liu, and immediately lost his temper, "Okay, I have to stay in Xieyang County. Do you still feel that the misfortune is not enough? Do you still feel that the family is not miserable enough? Wouldn’t it be good to go back to Shilipu with me and live an honest life? If you insist on torturing like this, now the second child is dead... Keep tossing , who will be next!"

After saying this, the rest of the Bai family fell silent.

"Let's go, we all go back... Let's all go back, no one is allowed to stay here... Pack up your things and go!" Old Man Bai made his decision loudly.

At this time, it was no longer suitable for Bai Chuanbai and Bai Shao's father and daughter to stay any longer, so they bid farewell to Mr. Bai and left.

Before leaving, Bai Shao saw with sharp eyes that old man Bai took Bai Chuanqiang away, and went into a hut alone, not knowing what to discuss.

After getting into his own carriage, Bai Shao whispered, "Father, the uncle was obviously involved, but it was the second uncle who was secretly executed in the end... Is there anything wrong with this matter?"

"What's wrong..." Bai Chuanbai said sullenly, "Even if there's something strange, your second uncle is gone now, and nothing can be changed... Shao'er, don't mention this, you understand?"

"Hmm..." Bai Shao blinked and nodded.

Afterwards, the two of them went home, and when they told Mrs. Wu what happened here, Mrs. Wu couldn't help but sigh for a while, and finally gave Bai Chuanbai a few words of comfort.

But Bai Wei said bluntly, "They deserve it, they do that illegal business and make illegal money, the consequences are still light, Shao'er shouldn't have asked the county magistrate to save them back then!"

"Okay, Wei'er don't talk anymore..." Seeing that Bai Chuanbai's face was not looking good, Wu hurriedly pulled Bai Wei's hand.

Bai Wei snorted, flattened his mouth, and didn't speak.

After dark, Baijia in Qingshan Hutong.

After having dinner and taking a rest, everyone's excited emotions gradually calmed down. Mrs. Sun is not a fool, but she was so stimulated that she forgot the key point. Now that the moon is dead and people are quiet, she is lying on the bed alone , began to ponder the strangeness inside.

Just like what Bai Shao said, it was obviously the eldest son of the Bai family who was involved, why was it the second son of the Bai family who had the accident?

The more Mrs. Sun thought about it, the more something was wrong, she hurriedly dressed and got up, found Mr. Bai, and asked about it.

Old Master Bai told her with a sullen face that it was Bai Chuanlian who offended the jailer, and that's why he was sentenced to death. He also defended Bai Chuanqiang, saying that he had never been in contact with these things, and that the county magistrate was there to help protect him. So nothing happened.

Because Mr. Bai still had some prestige in the Bai family, Mrs. Sun left in doubt.

As for Mr. Bai, after Mrs. Sun left, he heaved a long sigh of relief with tears in his eyes.
