Chapter 144: Coming Home

Bai Jiujiu woke up after she went out, she was just hungry, and her body was already weak, so she fainted in the court.

Knowing that it came out like this, she was still a little worried, "Will the county magistrate be angry?" ”

Han Zhaoyin comforted her, "It's okay, I'm here." ”

Xu Huaiqing silently blocked Bai Jiujiu's sight.

Han Zhaoyin glanced at Xu Huaiqing and didn't say anything, "Let's take her to eat something first." ”

Xu Huaiqing bowed slightly, and said politely, "Thank you Han Gongzi for your help this time, if there is a need for Xu in the future, even if you speak, as long as Xu can do it, you must do your best." ”

Han Zhaoyin paused, and waved his hand pretending not to care, "Don't worry, I will never be polite when I need you in the future, you go back first, Jiujiu, you don't have to worry about the embroidery workshop, I will find a way." ”

"Thank you." Bai Jiujiu sincerely thanked him, "Another day, when these things are over, I will invite you to dinner." ”

Han Zhaoyin didn't accept it immediately, just looked at her deeply, turned around and strode away. He had other things to do, such as the sealed embroidery workshop.

Here, as soon as Xu Huaiqing and Bai Jiujiu arrived home, the Xu family all gathered around and asked nonsense. This made Bai Jiujiu's already pale face even more bleak.

"Alright, don't get out of the way, she needs to rest now." After Xu Huaiqing finished speaking, he helped the person back to the room.

Wang looked at the figures of the two and muttered, "The person is back, so the embroidery workshop should be fine, right?" ”

Old Man Xu glared at her, "You know the embroidery workshop, I didn't see that the child suffered such a big crime, why don't you hurry up and make something to eat." ”

Wang was not happy to allow the old man to say this about her, but he also knew that it was indeed a little unkind to talk about it at this time, so he beckoned the two daughters-in-law into the kitchen together.

In the room, Bai Jiujiu couldn't stand the dirtiness on his body, so he asked to take a bath.

Xu Huaiqing persuaded her in a good voice, "Eat something first and then wash, how strong do you have now, I'll let people bring water in and wipe it for you." ”

As he spoke, he called the maid to fetch a basin of hot water and came in.

"Need my help?" Xu Huaiqing saw that Bai Jiujiu was struggling to even sit, so he asked out loud, and after asking, he was embarrassed first.

Bai Jiujiu glanced at him in surprise, the roots of his ears were slightly red, and he couldn't help shaking his head and said, "No, no, you go out, remember to close the door." ”

"Oh, good." Xu Huaiqing regretted it after he said it, and when he heard this, he seemed to have seen it, and he fled in a chaotic manner.

Looking at Xu Huaiqing's somewhat stumbling back, Bai Jiujiu smiled softly, and then took off his shirt and carefully wiped the wound on his knee.

She sent Xu Huaiqing away, and she also had concerns about not wanting him to see the wound.

"Shhhh

As soon as the hot water touched his knees, Bai Jiujiu involuntarily gasped. Although the wound is not deep, it is mixed with bluish-purple bruises, in white. The knees of the skin look particularly hideous.

A cold light flashed in Bai Jiujiu's eyes. White. Mengting, I have written down this account, let's come to a long time, you look at it, I will definitely let you pay it back.

Wang was holding the chicken soup and saw his son standing outside the door in a daze, his eyes widened in surprise, "Why are you standing here?" ”

Xu Huaiqing didn't answer, just took the chicken soup, "I'll come, mother, you go and get busy with you." ”

Wang vaguely heard the sound of water inside, thought about it for a while, and then understood, frowning a little worriedly, "Jiu Jiu is alone in it?" I don't call anyone in to help. ”

"She said no." Xu Huaiqing squeezed out a sentence angrily.

"Whatever you want, I see that she is not in good health, and she has no strength to walk, so you pay attention." The Wang family didn't want to persecute each other, after all, this was a matter between their husband and wife, so they just explained and left.

Xu Huaiqing was left alone at the door, listening to the sound of the dripping water inside, and his mouth was inexplicably dry.

In the county magistrate's mansion, the county magistrate was embarrassed by Han Zhaoyin on the spot, and after returning to the backyard, he was furious, waved his sleeves violently, swept away the things on the table, and the anger in his heart continued to swell.

"Han Zhaoyin, Xu Huaiqing, Bai Jiujiu, if this official lets you go like this, there is no need to do the position of the county magistrate." The county magistrate gritted his teeth and stared at the mess all over the ground, and a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes.

Wang Yanran heard the crackling sound inside outside the door and was worried.

This matter ends here, in fact, it is the best ending, if my father keeps holding on to it, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not completely offend Han Zhaoyin, then how can Han Zhaoyin be easily offended, the Han family behind him can be so big, who will believe it if there is no backer?

She bit her lip and thought for a moment before resolutely pushing open the door to the study.

"Father, forget about the Xu family's business, there is no problem with the embroidery workshop, you actually know it, don't you, everything is because of white. Mengting's instigation, now that Han Zhaoyin has come forward, you might as well push the boat down the river and remove the seal of the embroidery workshop. Wang Yanran persuaded bitterly.

A teacup grazed her forehead and slammed to the ground. Wang Yanran was suddenly frightened, and she was just a little bit away from being hit by her father. Looking at the tea still steaming on the ground, she couldn't imagine the consequences of being smashed. , my father is trying to ruin her appearance!

The county magistrate didn't take this into account for his daughter at all, and angrily pointed at her and scolded, "You, a wicked girl who eats inside and out, actually joined forces with outsiders to deal with your father, I really gave birth to you for nothing, get out, get out of me!" ”

Wang Yanran took a step back, her face was pale, and her lips kept trembling, "Father, you can't be deceived by the third uncle's family, they just want to take revenge on the Xu family's refusal to marry last time, but Xu Huaiqing didn't do anything wrong, and I hope that my father can handle it impartially and not be blinded." ”

"You!" The county magistrate jumped like thunder, and his face was blue, "You are really hopeless, no wonder your third uncle said that you have lost everyone's beautiful demeanor, your elbows are turned out, go out, I don't want to see you!" ”

With tears in her eyes, Wang Yanran staggered out of the study, and cried a lot when she returned to the room. And after the county magistrate dismissed his daughter, the more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and immediately called someone over to arrest Bai Jiujiu back.

Bai Jiujiu wore her hair scattered, leaned against the head of the bed, and drank chicken soup in small sips.

Suddenly, several officials rushed in, and without saying a word, they dragged her out, Xu Huaiqing stopped in front of her, and shouted, "What are you going to do?" ”

The official arched his hand expressionlessly, "The case of the embroidery workshop is unknown, and we will be ordered by the county commander to arrest the prisoner and bring him back for trial." ”
