Chapter 289 She must not mess up!

"Mom, don't cry, stop crying." Bai Zehao also wiped the corners of his eyes.

Bai Yihong suddenly squatted on the ground, hugged his head tightly, and started crying, "How can I deal with such a big brother? I might as well die!"

Deng Deng was still crying in Bai Ruozhu's arms. The family was in such a mess. Bai Ruozhu wiped her face that was wet with tears. She couldn't be messy or cry now!

At this time, Lin Ping'er struggled to get up again, "Don't stop me, I'm going to kill that scourge Bai Yibo, otherwise I will really be suffocated to death!"

"Okay!" Bai Ruozhu shouted. She rarely shouted at home, so when she spoke, the whole family fell silent and looked at her in confusion.

"Mom, you can't go. If you tell the second brother in advance, you are taking risks. If we go to make trouble now, the matter will spread in advance. What if the real criminal escapes? And it will also cause trouble to the second brother. Let me add more guilt." Bai Ruozhu took a deep breath and tried to calm down her tone.

Lin Ping'er was confused, but it didn't make sense. After hearing this, she sat back on the bed and started crying, "Is this the end? I can't swallow this breath, I can't swallow this breath. !”

Not to mention Lin Ping'er, everyone in the family can swallow this sigh of relief.

Bai Ruozhu looked at Bai Zepei and asked, "Second brother, have the adults said how they will sentence the uncle?"

"It is said that he not only bought the test questions, but also resold them to several people, so the crime is quite serious. Even if he is not beheaded, he will be stripped of his honors, will never be able to participate in the imperial examination, and will be exiled." Bai Zepei said truthfully.

"Then let the law punish him. It would be too happy for him to die. Going to suffer outside the customs is the best punishment for him." Bai Ruozhu said through gritted teeth. She was really afraid that Bai Yibo would be killed like this. Damn, that's such a bargain for him, she must make his life worse than death!

"What about you? What will happen to you if Master Li and the others fail to sign a letter?" Lin Ping'er stopped crying and stared at Bai Zepei and asked.

This is what Bai Zehao and Bai Yihong both want to ask, but they are afraid to ask for fear of irritating Lin Ping'er.

"Mom, don't think too much, it will be fine." Bai Zepei tried his best to put on a calm smile, "We will start arresting people tomorrow. I will inevitably go to jail, but don't worry, I will be there when the imperial envoy arrives. I will be questioned."

"But what if your uncle is talking nonsense? He is the kind of person who drags others with him to death. What if he says that he gave you test questions? The Imperial Envoy will not fail to interrogate him, right?" Lin Ping'er cried again as she spoke. He started to get angry, "What if he becomes evil and insists that you asked him to do it?"

I have to say that Lin Ping'er saw Bai Yibo through and through. Her words also reminded Bai Ruozhu. Bai Ruozhu narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that she had to take a risk once.

"Mom, don't think too much. The imperial envoy knows everything and won't be tricked by him," Bai Zepei said.

Lin Ping'er felt a little relieved, but she was still crying and continued to scold Bai Yibo, wishing she could scold Bai Yibo to death.

"Okay, everyone, calm down. Things are not irreversible yet. We must calm down first. If we are all in chaos, who will be the strong backing of the second brother?" Bai Ruozhu's face was full of perseverance. The color in her eyes showed her attitude at the moment.

Lin Ping'er stopped crying and looked at Bai Ruozhu blankly. Although she didn't say she wouldn't cry anymore, at least her crying was quieter.

Bai Yihong also stood up from the ground, patted Bai Zepei's shoulder and said, "Erlang, I have wronged you, and it's all because of my father." After saying that, he shed tears. This honest farmer rarely sheds tears, but Tears were streaming down my face at this moment.

"Dad, what are you talking about? No one can choose his origin. He is not only your eldest brother, but also my uncle. They are all destined by God. There is no one to blame." Bai Zepei comforted his father, "They will come to arrest him tomorrow. You don't want to Stop me, so as not to cause any trouble. With Mr. Li fighting against me, I won't suffer in prison."

"Okay, Mom won't do anything random." Lin Ping'er nodded vigorously.

At this time, the whole family calmed down. Bai Ruozhu thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow, after the second brother is arrested, the eldest brother will follow me to go to the patriarch's grandfather's house. This matter is not only our family's business, it will also affect the Bai family." Clan. Father and mother took the money from home and went to the jailer to make a pardon. Although Mr. Li will give an explanation, this kind of favor must be given as it should be given. We can earn more after spending the money."

The whole family nodded, but Bai Zepei was very depressed. He was helpless and could only wait for help.

"When my parents are done with their work, they will go back to Houshan Village to join me and my eldest brother. I want to talk to the village chief and see if I can write a petition to my second brother and get signatures from every household in the village to testify for my eldest brother. ." Bai Ruozhu continued.

Bai Zepei looked at his sister in surprise. He had never expected that her sister would turn from anger to calmness in such a short period of time, and then come up with this method. She was indeed worthy of the title of Zhuge among girls!

It's just that under current circumstances, it's really not the time to praise Bai Ruozhu.

"I just want to thank you for your hard work, little sister." You have to go door to door to find people, and you have to convince them. This is no small project.

"Second brother, this matter is not your matter alone, it is our whole family's matter, and we should contribute. That is, you should take care of yourself in prison, and if you have anything to say, let me know." Bai Ruozhu said Her eyes turned red again, and she sniffed hard. She couldn't cry. The family needed a backbone, and she had to stay calm.

Dengdeng saw all the adults in the family crying, and soon started crying again after being coaxed. Lin Ping'er felt distressed for Deng Dun, and hurriedly wiped away her tears and said, "Don't cry, don't scare the child."

"Mom, you're the one who cries the most, and you still say something." Bai Ruozhu deliberately teased Lin Ping'er, but unfortunately her mother was too preoccupied to hear what she was thinking.

Only then did Bai Ruozhu notice Fang Guizhi and Xiao Si in the room. Fang Guizhi was already crying. Bai Ruozhu's eyelids jumped. I'm afraid her previous guess was correct, but she didn't care about these things now. Please give Guizhi some more advice.

Xiaosi didn't cry, he just had a sullen face and his eyes were full of hatred. He also hated Bai Yibo. Who wouldn't hate this kind of black sheep?

"Xiaosi, something has happened at home recently, can you also take on the responsibilities of a man?" Bai Ruozhu touched his head and asked.

Xiaosi nodded seriously and said, "I can."

"Then you are responsible for looking after our house, and you practice calligraphy at home to make sure that no bad guys come in and frame us." Bai Ruozhu was afraid that she would not be able to take care of Xiao Si these days. What if he ran around and was in danger? I found an excuse to ask him to stay in the west courtyard, but I didn't want to make it a prophecy...
