Chapter 124 Witness’s name

In fact, Bai Ruozhu thinks that the surname does not matter, the name is just a code name, but this era does not allow you to be so casual. Your surname will determine which genealogy you will join and which ancestral hall you will worship. If you are a boy, you will have to take the imperial examination in the future. They also need to be recommended by the clan.

"Dad, you are asking this. Changsheng is a bride-in-law who came to my family. If the child's surname is not Bai, why?" Bai Yihong frowned. He did not expect that the old man would find fault in this matter.

The old man glanced at him coldly, "You still have the nerve to say it. Did you ask me, the elder, when you asked someone to marry you? How can this child enter the Bai family ancestral hall if I don't agree?"

Bai Ruozhu suddenly looked at the old man. This man was still a scholar. Didn't he relent at first? Why don't you feel ashamed now that he has gone back on his word?

However, Bai Ruozhu didn't plan to ask the old man why he regretted it, because she knew that even if she asked, the old man would refuse to admit it, so why bother herself and her family?

"Dad, why are you..." Bai Yihong became anxious when he heard what the old man said. If Bai Ruozhu hadn't pulled him back, he would have really quarreled with the old man.

Being pulled by his daughter, Bai Yihong looked at Bai Ruozhu in confusion, but heard Bai Ruozhu say: "Dad, I came here today to show grandpa Deng Deng. We can talk about other things later."

The old man snorted coldly and said: "Don't come up with any delaying tactics with me, I will never let go of this matter!"

As soon as these words were said, Bai Ruozhu's family members became anxious. Even the second brother opened his mouth, but he heard Bai Ruozhu say: "This is not a slow-down strategy. Grandpa is worrying too much."

Bai Zepei glanced at his sister in surprise, then thought about what happened these days, and finally closed his mouth. The little sister had her own decision, and he just respected her choice.

With Bai Ruozhu's low profile, the old man suddenly didn't know how to continue, so he had to drop the topic. Fortunately, he had other things to cause trouble for, and he wouldn't give up on the second bedroom so soon.

"Don't salute me either. I'm not a scheming granddaughter like you, trying to sow discord between relatives." The old man glanced coldly at Bai Ruozhu and Deng Deng in her arms.

Sure enough, we are going to make a fuss about this!

Erlang frowned and said, "Grandpa, don't be misled by others and say such hurtful words. My little sister didn't steal or rob her, so why didn't grandpa recognize her? When it comes to provoking a relationship, I'm afraid someone is at fault. First?"

Bai Ruozhu secretly applauded the second brother. Even though the second brother didn't like to talk on weekdays, his eloquence was really impressive. As soon as he opened his mouth, he hit the opponent's vital point.

Sure enough, the old man's face became particularly ugly, and he refused to steal or rob. This was a hint that Saburo stole and robbed again. Didn't he also recognize this grandson?

The old man's hands trembled with anger. In his eyes, Sanlang was either stealing, robbing, or taking. It was Bai Ruozhu who made a fuss and made the matter bigger.

The old man slapped the table, causing all the tea on it to spill out.

"How presumptuous! Now you are just a child student who has taken the examination and is the head of a case, and you are not yet the number one scholar. How dare you point fingers at me and say that I am not good enough?"

Mrs. Wang also came over, stretched her neck and shouted: "What do you mean, you said who stole it, can you talk nonsense after getting first place in the exam?"

The old man glared at Mrs. Wang fiercely. Do you want to talk about this kind of thing on the table? Women like to talk nonsense, and they really fail to accomplish anything but fail!

Mrs. Wang didn't understand why the old man was glaring at her, so she shrank her neck in displeasure and pushed her aside. Bai Yibo gave her a look, signaling her not to talk too much.

"The old man handles things, don't talk too much, he will take care of it." Bai Yibo said in a low voice.

Mrs. Wang thought about it for a while, as if she felt like she was bullying her second wife when she spoke, so she felt at peace even if she didn't speak.

The old lady glanced at Erlang and said: "Erlang, now that you are successful, you can't be angry with your father, right? It's unfilial to spread the word. Don't say what case you took the exam, even if you get the top prize, the emperor will have to treat you." Your crime of unfilial piety!"

Although the old man was dissatisfied that the old lady always spoke in dialect, he felt that what she said this time was spot on. He nodded in agreement and said, "Filial piety comes first in everything. Your grandma is right."

Well, if the word "filial piety" is placed on the head, it can indeed crush someone to death.

"Grandpa and grandma taught you a lesson." Erlang saluted the two of them and said in a calm tone.

The old lady became proud. She was uneducated, so she couldn't talk about it. The old man's brows frowned slightly. He heard the coldness in Erlang's tone, and then he realized that this grandson was probably becoming more and more distant from them.

It's a pity that after realizing this, the old man not only did not reflect on who caused this situation, but instead felt that the second wife was alienated from him, which was not as good as the boss's feelings for him. He even glared at Bai Ruozhu, thinking that Bai Ruozhu liked it all. The trouble caused Erlang to distance himself from him.

Why didn't he think that he slapped Erlang in public?

"Before, it was okay if Ruozhu was in confinement. Now that she is in confinement today, I have to take the child away. I should give her some good advice." The old man waved his hand impatiently, as if he wanted to put her in his head. Just get rid of those annoying things, and then when the conversation changes, Bai Ruozhu will be tortured.

Now Lin Ping'er was unhappy and shouted, "Dad, this is the first time I've heard of someone's daughter being tortured right after she was born. You can't be so partial, right?"

The old man had beaten Saburo, and he was gathering his breath to fight back from Bai Ruozhu! He really felt sorry for Sanlang, Bai Ruozhu thought with squinted eyes, but he didn't intend to receive this beating in vain.

"How can a woman interrupt what a man is saying? There are no rules at all!" The old man glared at Lin Ping'er.

Lin Ping'er was not afraid of him at all, and snorted and said: "The person you are going to beat is my daughter, and that is the flesh that fell off my body. Others don't feel sorry for me, but I still feel sorry for her. Why am I not qualified to speak?"

"She found someone to trick Sanlang into going to your house and slandered Sanlang's reputation. For this reason, I, as the head of the family, should also punish her." After finishing speaking, the old man glanced at Erlang and said, "There are people in the village who have come out to testify. If you don’t accept it, you can go to the Bai clan chief to file a complaint and directly deny me as an elder.”

The Bai family is not only Bai Fu's family, but also has several other lines. Bai Fu has two cousins, plus a younger brother, who all live in the nearby Maple Leaf Village. The current leader of the Bai clan is Bai Fu's younger brother Bai Lu. It's just that I don't have a good relationship with Bai Fu, so I rarely move around on weekdays.

Being able to go to the clan leader to sue one's elders is basically a lifelong betrayal, and almost no one dares to do so.

Bai Ruozhu looked at the old man and suddenly smiled and said: "The witness said that I asked her to bring a message to Saburo. Why didn't he think that it would be appropriate for her to go to Saburo as a girl to be married? There are some things I don't want to say because I am worried about her. reputation."
