When the Luo trio arrived, the materials had already been transported. The villagers had received their wages and went home to eat.
The Wang family really didn't have any good impression of Luo Shi and the others. Not to mention the fact that the Luo family had made things difficult for the Wang family, no one in the Wang family could forgive them for selling Bai Ling 'er to be buried with them.
After that, the Bai family refused to treat Bai Ling 'er, and they even refused to treat Bai Laosan's leg. This made Grandpa's family very angry.
Now, they had just relied on a ginseng to earn some money, and the Bai family had already come to their door. Anyone would know their purpose for coming.
Luo Shi didn't care about this. She had already thought about it this time. No matter how she got the money, she should give it to Old Third Bai.
Bai Qiguang wanted to be a high school candidate, an official, and bring honor to his ancestors, so he needed a lot of money. As a member of the Bai family, even if the third branch was separated, they would still benefit from it in the future. At the very least, they could go out and say that they were relatives of the High Scholar Master. In other words, no matter where the money from the third branch came from, they should take it out.
Therefore, Luo Shi didn't stand on ceremony. He only exchanged a few words with the Wang family and went straight to Bai Qiyao.
"Third brother, you bought all the materials in this courtyard, right? I heard that you dug up some money in the house. You can use this money to renovate the house. Mother also knows that you lack a place to live. However, you have to give the extra money to Mother.”
After Luo Shi finished speaking, Madam Wang was so angry that she was trembling. If it weren't for Bai Ling 'er, she wouldn't have been able to stand up.
Bai Ling 'er sneered in her heart. This Luo family was really a top-notch person. She didn't even bother to give Bai Qiyao's family a reason to ask for money and directly said that she had to give it to her.
Bai Qiyao was also very sad. He wanted to leave his family with nothing. Now that he had money by chance, he planned to be filial to his parents in the future. However, his parents did not want him to be well at all.
Grandpa and Grandma were even angrier. Their daughter had never had a good life after marrying over. They had already separated, but they still wanted to take advantage of her. What right did they have?
However, as physical practitioners, they couldn't interfere. Moreover, she believed that Luo wouldn't be able to get an advantage.
"Mother, the money to renovate the house was obtained by Ling Er when she went up the mountain and dug up a hundred-year-old ginseng. It was not dug out from the house. The house was so dilapidated that no one could live in it. The courtyard was so barren that it could not be cultivated. How could they dig out any money?”Bai Qiyao sighed.
Luo Shi could hear the complaint in his words.
"When we split the family, we gave you four mu of fertile land. Hearing your words, you think that your father and I have mistreated you. You were the one who refused to listen to me and sold that girl of yours to help your big brother exchange for an official position. Your father and I are still willing to give you fertile land. That is already treating you well. What did he mean by digging up ginseng? It was a hundred-year-old ginseng. Everyone knew about Red Maple Mountain. It was impossible to dig up a hundred-year-old ginseng. It was obvious that he had dug up a treasure in the house.”
Thinking of how Third Brother had disobeyed him, Luo Shi was furious. He had originally wanted to punish their family and make them lack clothes and clothes, have no place to live, and have no way out. Unexpectedly, they were really rich. Before they came, they thought that Fourth Brother might have seen wrongly. Now that they saw the materials used to build the house, what else could they not understand?
Bai Qiyao was so angry that he fell back.
When Madam Wang heard Luo mention that Bai Ling 'er was almost sold off, her tears fell. Now, she was no longer trembling.
"Mother, Ling Er is my daughter. Why should I sell my Ling Er for big brother? Big Brother wants fame and fortune, so he can sell his daughter. We don't want it.”
Luo Shi glared at Madam Wang fiercely, stopping Bai Qiguang and Bai Qizu from retorting.
"I'm talking to my son, you bitch, go to the side.”
Bai Qiguang snorted, but he was thinking that his daughter was the future daughter of the High Scholar. How could she be sold? Who was Bai Ling 'er? She was a good-for-nothing!
Luo Shi didn't give Wang Shi a chance to refute and continued,""I heard that you bought the ox cart in the courtyard. We'll rush back directly later. Tell me how much money you dug up. Leave the money to build a house and give the rest to your big brother to take the exam.”
Bai Ling 'er was so angry that she almost laughed. She looked at Bai Qiguang, who was already in his thirties, and thought to herself that her uncle was still so weak at this age. He probably didn't have much hope.
He turned around and glanced at Dumby, who had been standing at the side without saying a word. He thought to himself, You have to stop Luo from making a scene later. Erdai seemed to understand and nodded.
Bai Ling 'er then walked up to Bai Qiyao.
"Father, let your daughter handle this matter. Your legs can't take it after standing for so long. Erdai, help my father to the bed."
After she finished speaking, Luo Shi's face turned red.
The moment the Luo trio entered the room, they sat down on the brick bed. In the room where the Bai family lived, the others were standing and talking. Bai Qiyao's leg hadn't recovered yet, so no one paid attention to him.
After Bai Ling 'er made arrangements for her father, she turned around and said to Luo Shi,""Milk, I did get the money from digging up some ginseng on the mountain. The villagers of the Wang Family Village can all testify.”As he spoke, he turned to look at his uncle Wang An and said,"Uncle, why don't we invite the villagers to testify?”
Luo Shi didn't have a chance to retort. The room was too small, so everyone went to the courtyard.
Luo Shi didn't want to believe that the third family suddenly became rich because Bai Ling 'er dug up the ginseng. If that was the case, she had no reason to force the third family to take out the money.
Moreover, the third family was separated. Not only did they not lose their lives, but they even became rich. She could not accept this fact.
Bai Ling 'er saw that all the villagers were here, so she reached out and patted her face to make herself look wronged.
"Grandma, the villagers are all here. If Ling 'er tells lies, she will be exposed. His parents went to the house in the east of the village and only took a look. The house was really unlivable, just like what the nanny said. So, Father, Mother, we went there and came back. The villagers in the village all saw it.”
Speaking of the uninhabitable house, the villagers had seen it with their own eyes. Besides, if they could really dig up something, they would have gone to dig without waiting for the Bai family to come. After all, no one had cared for them for many years.
Seeing that everyone was nodding, Bai Ling 'er didn't care about the ugly expressions on the faces of the Luo trio.
"When our family was separated, Grandpa and Grandma didn't give us any money. During this period of time, we've been living in Grandpa's house. The villagers saw the ginseng I dug up at Red Maple Mountain. The money was earned from selling ginseng, so there was no need to give it to the milk.”
The villagers quickly nodded in agreement, and Father Tea Flower also stood up to testify. He had seen the ginseng with his own eyes. He was a village doctor, so he had the right to speak.
Luo Shi knew that there was no turning back. Bai Ling 'er must have dug up some ginseng. She really didn't know what to feel.
How did this wretched girl manage to dig up ginseng as soon as she left the family? She had never been so lucky in all these years in the Bai family.
The Luo brothers and the Bai brothers came for money. Of course, they couldn't be rejected with just two sentences.
Before Luo could speak, Bai Laosi couldn't hold it in anymore.
"What are you talking about, little girl? Even if this money was obtained from selling ginseng, mother is still third brother's mother.”
Boss Bai was more or less concerned about his identity as a scholar, but Bai Laosi only knew money. Now that the third household had money, she would not stop until she could take advantage of it.
Bai Ling 'er blinked her eyes and was overjoyed. Bai Laosi's words only made the villagers think that the Bai family was bullying the third branch. It was useless.
"Fourth Uncle, what are you saying? This branch family is different. Grandpa and Grandma refused to spend a single cent to treat Dad's illness. Now that Dad and Mom have money, why must they give it to Grandpa and Grandma? Does our family deserve to starve to death?”
At this time, Luo Shi couldn't care less about his identity as an elder. Spending money on the third branch was a waste.
"You little girl, you have no right to speak. You're a good-for-nothing. The third branch doesn't even have a son. What's the use of building a house? Wasn't it a waste to spend money to feed these two girls? Boss wanted to be a High Scholar and bring honor to his ancestors. Third Brother, if you are sensible, you should take out the money for your big brother to use.”
Bai Qiyao was supported by Erdai. Hearing Luo Shi's words, he broke free from Erdai's hand and took two steps forward.
"Mother, Ling 'Er, and Bao' Er are all my daughters. I can't wait to hold them in my hands. Your son will send the money to you and your father on time. Our family doesn't even have a place to stay now. We're temporarily staying at my father-in-law's house. This bit of money was needed to buy seeds to plant the land in the spring. There was really no excess. As for his eldest brother, his son was powerless.”
Luo Shi didn't expect that Third Brother could still refuse, so he immediately threw a tantrum.
"Father and Mother asked you for money and you dare not give it to them. You are unfilial.”As she spoke, she burst into tears.
Grandma was furious. She pointed at Luo Shi and said,"This is my home. This place is surnamed Wang. If you want to cause trouble, get out of here.”
Bai Ling 'er also said," Grandma, when we split the family, we made it clear that the third branch can no longer take advantage of the old house." The third branch was responsible for their own life and death, so the money earned by the third branch belonged to the third branch. Other than two taels of silver per year, there was no need to take out more.”
Luo Shi didn't care about this. He picked up the fork at the side and thought about Bai Ling 'er's glib tongue. He was furious. He cursed angrily,"I'll beat you to death, you unfilial good-for-nothing."”
He rushed towards Bai Ling 'er.
Bai Ling 'er was also shocked. She didn't expect Luo Shi to do this to her granddaughter. It was too late to hide.
Suddenly, there was a flash in front of him, and a tall figure was already standing in front of him.
The fork in Luo's hand was held by Erdai with one hand. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't snatch it back. In the end, he could only let go.
Erdai looked at Luo coldly. He held the fork with both hands effortlessly. The fork bent and deformed in his palm.
Luo Shi's back was already cold from the cold gaze. Seeing that he had such strength, he was scared back.
He glared at Bai Qiyao and his wife angrily, then left with his two sons without saying goodbye.# Daguan reviewed: Daguan Time:111420184: 32PM #Cancel review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
