Before the hundred lashes were finished, Bai Shengyu lay on the ground and passed out.

The old housekeeper stopped his whip and silently asked for instructions from the old lady who was still twirling the beads with her eyes closed.

After a long time, I heard a sigh, "Keep fighting."

The old butler's gray eyebrows couldn't help but tremble, and he raised his hand and raised his whip.

In fact, the second young master couldn't even survive a hundred lashes, which was quite surprising to him.

Now that I am old, my strength in handling family punishment is much lighter than before. I thought that the second young master could survive these one hundred lashes.

The whip fell on the bloody back again. Even if the person fainted, the muscles still spasmed unconsciously, accompanied by the voice of the old lady hating the iron.

"It's not that I didn't know about his slutty behavior over the years. I indulged in it because he was the second child's only child. I didn't expect that one day I, Tang Jiaoyun, would indulge in such a bastard!"

"Hit him harder, otherwise, even I won't be able to save his life!"

The old housekeeper only knew that the good friend who was in charge of the Bai family's old house today personally brought in a tall young man and went directly into the old lady's yard. It took more than half an hour to leave.

Although he is the housekeeper of this old house and the confidant of the old lady, he doesn't know everything.

All he knew was that after the young man left, the old lady's face looked uglier than ever before. He was so frightened that he was almost ready to call the family doctor to guard her.

Then he asked the second young master to come back.

At this point, he guessed that the second young master was causing trouble, and even asked someone to report it directly to the old lady, which made the old lady so angry.

But when he received one hundred lashes later, he found that he had guessed conservatively.

This must have caused a lot of trouble for the old lady to say such things.

By the time the one hundred lashes were over, even the old housekeeper was feeling sore.

Not to mention Bai Shengyu, who was lying on the ground and even his breath was weak. To put it bluntly, he was no different than a dead dog.

Calling the family doctor waiting outside the ancestral hall, Tang Jiaoyun ordered: "Give him medicine. He must wake up and be able to stand up before five o'clock in the afternoon."

The family looked at Bai Shengyu's bloody back.

This is making things difficult for me!

But who allowed himself to receive the old lady’s high salary?

However, she still asked for permission, "Old madam, is there any way I can do it?"

"Yes."

That's it.

While Bai Shengyu was being treated by the family doctor and her assistants for the whiplash on his back, preparations were being made in the reception hall of the Bai family's old house to host a banquet for distinguished guests.

The old butler has also arranged countless banquets, large and small, but this banquet was not only personally directed by the old lady, but the standards were also higher than ever before. This made him more curious about the guests who were coming next.

At 04:30 in the afternoon, it was not yet five o'clock, and the old lady ordered him to wait in person at the gate of the old house.

Now even if the old lady hasn't said who the guest is, the old housekeeper is ready to receive it with the most solemn etiquette.

Even before rushing to the gate, he went back to his residence to change into a new suit and combed his gray hair, trying to leave the best impression on the guests.

However, compared to the grandness on the Bai family's side, Jiang Lingxi's side seemed much more casual.

After returning home from Heyan, she took a nap first, woke up and went to the balcony to bask in the sun and read a book for a while. After receiving a call from Shen Yunqing, she got up, changed into a set of comfortable clothes and went downstairs.

She didn't even look at the beautiful and dignified clothes.

Anyway, today’s banquet is not for eating at all.

The reason why they revealed what Bai Shengyu had done to Mrs. Bai instead of handing it over directly to the relevant departments was to see Mrs. Bai's choice.

To protect others, but to be selfless.These are two completely different solutions.

If it's the latter, then everything will be fine and their subsequent actions will be saved. They only need to supervise.

If it's the former, it will be a bit troublesome.

But no matter what Mrs. Bai chooses, Bai Shengyu's fate will not change.

This was the ending she had planned for Bai Shengyu from the beginning after reading the information found by Shen Yunqing!

But seeing that Mrs. Bai specially hosted a banquet, she was more likely to want to protect her children and grandchildren.

Then this banquet is naturally not a good one.

*
A low-key black car parked at the front entrance of an old-fashioned mansion.

The old housekeeper who was already guarding the door suddenly became energetic, rubbed his hands and stepped forward quickly.

But before he could reach the car, the car door was opened from the inside, and a young man in a black Tang suit with a stand-up collar came out.

It's clearly an old-fashioned style, but when worn on this person, it looks extraordinarily stable and elegant, making people subconsciously want to ignore the other person's youthful face.

But the old housekeeper didn't dare to ignore it. After seeing the appearance of the person getting off the car, he was stunned for a moment, and then he felt a little enlightened.

There are not many people in the entire empire who can be treated so grandly by the old lady, but the youngest head of the Shen family in front of him is definitely one of them.

And it's still a heavyweight.

"It turns out to be Mr. Shen..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw the head of the Shen family nodded slightly towards him, and then walked towards the car door on the other side.

The old housekeeper immediately swallowed back his invitation to come in and followed her with his eyes.

The person who can make the head of the Shen family go and open the door in person must be...

Before Jiang Lingxi could wait for Shen Yunqing to open the door for her and finish sending the message to Tong Yue, she took her mobile phone and pushed the door open and got out of the car.

Turning around, he met a pair of startled eyes.

Raised eyebrows.

The old butler: "..."

He looked at the girl who got out of the car wearing a bright lemon yellow sweatshirt with two white pom-poms hanging from the bottom of the drawstring of the hat. She was wearing white sweatpants and casual shoes. For a moment, he didn't know what to say. .

After Jiang Lingxi got out of the car, she walked to Shen Yunqing's side, shook his hand first, and then let go when she felt the temperature was okay.

"Mr. Shen, who is this?"

When the old housekeeper saw the person for the first time, he thought he was a junior in Mr. Shen's family, but when he saw the other person shook Mr. Shen's hand without any scruples, and when he walked over, Mr. Shen was even half a step behind. The speculation was thrown out of his mind.

The longer a family is, the more rules they have. The Shen family has a much longer inheritance than the Bai family, so it is impossible for them to have less rules than the Bai family.

That can only mean that this girl, who is dressed a little casually, is not Mr. Shen's sister.

"I'm Jiang Lingxi."

ginger?
The old housekeeper subconsciously thought about whether there was a big family named Jiang in the capital, but he didn't think about it before he could.

"Is Bai Shengyu still here?"

Meeting the eyes of Miss Jiang in front of him, the old housekeeper stopped thinking, nodded subconsciously and replied: "Yes."

Jiang Lingxi smiled slightly, "That's good."

She couldn't wait to see what kind of cruel tricks the old lady Bai wanted to use to save her grandson!
