Although it was the same greeting as before, it was plainly with a little displeasure, and when Mrs. Bai heard it, she didn't see much fluctuation on her face, but just bowed her head lightly, and said, "Excuse me, sit down, didn't you say that you can come back in two days, why did you finish the errand so quickly?"

Bai Shizu had already thought about his words, sat down and said: "Well, things are going relatively well, so I came back early, I am not here for a few days, I heard that there are a lot of things at home, what is going on?"

These words already had a somewhat questioning tone, which made Old Madam Bai's face stiffen slightly, and before she could reply, Bai Muhibiscus stood up first and brought a cup of tea, and offered it to Bai Shizu obediently, and said respectfully: "Father, you rushed back from the dust, you must have worked hard all the way, let's take a sip of tea first, and speak slowly!"

Bai Shizu was slightly stunned, and said in his heart that he had just glared at her, she wouldn't know what she was coming for, right? Why was she so calm, but came up to greet first, if it was usual, she should hide in the corner, and she didn't even dare to look at him, right?

Bai Shizu didn't answer, but looked at his eldest daughter carefully, when did this daughter become so elusive?

Seeing that he ignored him, he didn't take the teacup, and he wasn't annoyed, he still held the teacup and stood there quietly, with a soft smile on his eyebrows.

Bai Shizu said after a while: "Let it go, I'm not thirsty, you are becoming more and more sensible, even your mother and sister can calculate, but in the past, I underestimated your daughter!"

Bai Mujin glanced at him inexplicably, and then glanced at Old Madam Bai with a little grievance, the smile on his face turned into stiff bitterness in an instant, and after putting the teacup away, he said, "Father, did you misunderstand something?"

"Misunderstanding?Then tell me, where is Xi'er now?Why is your mother sick in bed?" Bai Shizu snorted coldly, if he didn't take care that his mother was still there, I'm afraid he would have started to beat someone.

Bai Mujian closed his mouth, as if he was suffering, and the old lady Bai was also annoyed when she saw her son so indiscriminate, and said in a calm tone: "Grandpa hurried back just to question his mother and seek justice for his wife and children?"

Although Bai Shizu was in awe of his mother, he felt that the old lady had done something wrong this time, so he didn't think that there was anything wrong with him asking for questioning, did he want him to watch his wife and daughter suffer?

But he couldn't blame his mother, but he could deal with his daughter, so he sprinkled all his anger on Bai Mu's head, and said in a cold tone: "Mother, I already know about this matter, don't be too partial to Jin'er, listen to her everything, Xi'er is also your own granddaughter!"

When Mrs. Bai heard this, she almost lost her anger, if it weren't for Mama Sun helping her in the back, I was afraid that she would have to turn her back on her anger, which was obviously accusing Bai Mujian of sowing discord, but listening to it was saying that she listened to and believed partially, regardless of right and wrong, and disposed of her daughter-in-law and granddaughter indiscriminately.

Old Madam Bai's hands were rearranged on the table, even the teacup shook, and she suppressed her voice and said: "Are you saying this to your mother as a son? You said that I listen to Jin'er for everything, so what about yourself? If you hadn't listened to Lu's words, you would have come to Tangli Garden to question me as soon as you got home? What kind of behavior are you, and do you still think I am your mother?"

Bai Shizu saw that Old Madam Bai was really angry, and his heart was a little worried, but when he came back and saw Lu's pale face and weak body, and thought that she was beaten by such a harsh family law, his heart couldn't help but hurt, although his arrogance was no longer as arrogant as just now, he still said with dissatisfaction:" The son doesn't dare, the son just hopes that his mother can be more sympathetic to the Lu family, since she married me, she has also served you with all her heart, and has taken good care of my children very well, there is no merit and hard work, how can you use family law against her at will!"

"I want to be sympathetic to her? Bai Shizu, Bai Shizu, I took the trouble to teach you to become an adult, why did you develop such a discerning temperament that does not distinguish between right and wrong, and does not know black and white? I can understand that you feel sorry for your wife and daughter, but is Jin'er not your daughter anymore? Do you know what the Lu family did, so I punished her ruthlessly? You didn't understand the ins and outs of the matter, so you came over and asked me, should you?" Old Madam Bai reprimanded angrily, and sat there dejectedly after speaking, seemingly very sad.

When Bai Shizu heard this, he frowned, and then said: "I didn't question my mother, I also know the matter, you suspect that the Lu family deliberately wanted to frame Jin'er, but it was just a misunderstanding, how can you believe that such a gentle and kind woman as her would do such a thing? In the past ten years, she has been very good to Jin'er and Chen'er!"

It is really not easy to make Bai Shizu believe that the Lu family will harm Bai Mujian, after all, all the actions of the Lu family are private, on the surface, she takes proper care of Bai Mujin and Bai Muchen, those methods are not understandable to a man like Bai Shizu who has not experienced the struggle in the inner house, after all, the grandfather of the old country only married the old lady, and he is the only son in the family, so he naturally does not understand the twists and turns.

Old Madam Bai sighed deeply, feeling that she really doted on this son too much back then, so that he became such a simple and ignorant appearance, full of thought that what she saw in her eyes was the truth, and the Lu family was used to ingratiating and coaxing him into obedience.

Bai Mujin saw that Old Madam Bai was so angry that she couldn't even say anything for a long time, so she hurriedly went up and comforted: "Grandmother, don't be angry, if you are angry, then it will also hinder your father's reputation, but it will not make your mother more guilty than evil?

When Bai Shizu heard this, he suddenly understood what he had done wrong, and he actually came to ask his mother for his wife's punishment, if he was really angry with his mother, he was afraid that the title of the duke of the country would be difficult to protect, and the emperor now ruled the world with benevolence and filial piety, and the most intolerable thing was that his children disobeyed their parents and elders, how could he do such a foolish thing?

Thinking like this, Bai Shizu's arrogance was suddenly extinguished, and he stood there very embarrassed, not knowing what to do, no matter how much he blamed his mother for being unfair in his heart, he couldn't openly confront her, wasn't this destroying his future?

"Mother...... Son, son doesn't mean that, Bai Mu Hibiscus, you girl blames you all, if you didn't get in the way, how could you make your grandmother angry and punish your mother and sister, hey...... I am so restless at such a young age, thinking about how to intrigue every day, it is really disappointing to me!" Bai Shizu saw that the situation was not right, and immediately turned the spearhead to Bai Hibiscus, and insisted on pushing the charge of disobedience and unfilial piety to her.

Bai Muhibiscus smiled secretly in his heart, his father was really stupid and ignorant, if it weren't for the shrewdness of the old lady, who refused the concubines of the old prince back then, and single-handedly got rid of the uncles who coveted the position of the prince, with this incompetent and ignorant Bai Shizu, the position of the prince of the country could not be kept, and he still thought that he was really an outstanding talent.

was accused by Bai Shizu like this, she didn't feel it at all, she just felt that he was stupid, but she had to pretend to be frightened and aggrieved on her face, blinked her tearful eyes, knelt on the ground with a puff, and said, "Father, Jin'er doesn't know what she has done to make her father so angry!"

"Hmph, you don't know what you've done? You hurt your mother who was dealt with by the family law, and you let your sister enter the family temple, and you still say that you don't know what you did? Sure enough, you are a quibble, if you don't know the facts, I will always treat you as a weak and kind good boy!" Bai Shizu saw Bai Muhibiscus kneeling on the ground, but instead of alleviating his anger, he felt more and more that he was scolding reasonably.

Bai Mujin rubbed his eyes with a handkerchief and choked up: "Father must have misunderstood, my sister entered the family temple because she suddenly went crazy in Xiangguo Temple and scolded me angrily, and she also confronted my grandmother in front of her, and kept saying that my mother wanted her to kill me, if you see her like that, you will also think that she is stunned, grandmother has no choice but to send her to the family temple to meditate, hoping that it can help her exorcise evil spirits, let her sister return to normal, and then take her home, otherwise her reputation will be ruined! As for my mother's punishment, I ...... Jin'er really doesn't want to say it!"

Bai Mujin shed tears of sadness as he spoke, looking pitiful and stubborn, and stubbornly trying to pretend to be strong and forbearing.

Bai Shizu looked at her, frowned, and asked, "Why don't you dare to say it? It's not that your grandmother who pestered you annoyed your mother, isn't it true?"

"It has nothing to do with Jin'er, it's me who insists on punishing her, as a mother, I don't even think about my daughter, I don't think about the face of the Guogong Mansion, I chatter in Xiangguo Temple early in the morning, I have to say that Jin'er didn't return all night, isn't this going to ruin Jin'er's reputation and ruin her life?

Bai Shizu was taken aback, and felt that what he heard from here was so different from what the Lu family said to him? Although he was puzzled, he still couldn't help but defend the Lu family: "That's also because she cares about it, and there is no need to be punished so much, right?"

Hmph, do you know why she blocked Jin'er's door early in the morning, because the night before your youngest daughter introduced Jin'er into the bamboo forest behind Xiangguo Temple, and she almost fell into a maze, so she really didn't return overnight, and the monks of Xiangguo Temple went into the bamboo forest and brought out the bodies of eight thieves, think about it, is it all a coincidence?" Old Madam Bai asked sharply?

Bai Shizu looked at Old Madam Bai in shock, and said again and again: "This ...... This...... Impossible, how could Ning Xiang be so ruthless? No, she has always taken good care of Jin'er and treated her as her own!"

"Impossible? Then the grandfather will explain, why can things be so coincidental? If it weren't for the blessing of the Buddha and the fact that Jin'er hadn't fallen into the bamboo forest, I'm afraid what you see now is Jin'er's corpse, and I just punished the Lu family a little, and you would feel distressed, so what about Jin'er? If she didn't escape this fate, it would be a life!" Old Madam Bai said in pain, and her hand knocked on the table a few times, banging, as if it hit everyone's heart.

Bai Mujin always knelt on the ground silently, enduring her grievances and helplessness, and lowered her head, making people feel that she looked so lonely and helpless, and everyone present couldn't help but feel pity.

Mu Xinping experienced the Xiangguo Temple, but she didn't know the danger, at this time Mrs. Bai said this, she felt that Bai Hibiscus was simply the rest of her life, and suddenly she also had real pity for this little girl, although she was clothed and fed, but she was also threatened by her stepmother all the time, and sure enough, there was no real wishful thinking in this world.

Bai Shizu looked at his daughter's tearful appearance, and his heart was also painful, and he suddenly felt that what he just said was simply heartbreaking, if it was...... He was also terrified at the thought that the Lu clan could do such a poisonous move.

"Jin'er......" Bai Shizu shouted guiltily, but he couldn't pull his head down and say some soft words, so he could only freeze there.

Bai Mujian raised his head and shook his head with a smile at him, although there were tears in his eyes, he obviously understood Bai Shizu's meaning, and took the initiative to speak: "Father, Jin'er hopes that this matter will pass like this, and no one needs to mention it, after all, I am still alive and well, and in a few days, when my sister recovers, I will take her back, and our family will be fine!"
