The Bai family has a daughter who wants to turn over

Chapter 6 Rumors
With the help of the supervisor, the fire was finally extinguished several hours later, and the Bai family ancestral hall was reduced to ashes. Fortunately, the fire did not spread to cause more damage.

Bai Zhengzhong apologized to the visitors one by one outside, while Zheng made a detailed statistics of the scope and situation of the damage inside, and the follow-up processing was proceeding in an orderly manner.

After everything was almost arranged, Bai Zhengzhong began to picket the cause of the fire. After all, in this weather, there will be no dry weather, and it is also because he knows that it is not easy to catch fire in this season, so there are not many people guarding the ancestral hall. Doing inspections gave Bai Shuangshuang a chance.

Although Bai Zhengzhong had some doubts about the cause of the fire, but because he couldn't find any clues, he had to punish the guards of the ancestral hall severely, expel him from the house, and order the Zheng family to supervise the use of open fire in the Bai family.

"Mother, are you still worrying about the fire in the ancestral hall?" Bai Mingzhu was sitting in Zheng's room playing chess, and seeing Zheng's undecided look, she joked: "I have seen people from Biefu these two days. Miss, everyone is praising you."

Mrs. Zheng glanced at Bai Mingzhu amusedly: "It's nice to say, is the fire in the ancestral hall a trivial matter? I, the mistress of the house, is responsible for the unfavorable care. It's good that your father didn't pursue it too much."

The Zheng family also knew that the fire in the Bai family's ancestral hall caused a lot of trouble. Recently, the discussions among the various prefectures almost all revolved around the Bai family, and the Zheng family was also widely praised.Of course, many of them praised Bai Shuangshuang, but Zheng didn't care too much. The only thing that made her feel unwilling was that she could have been suppressed by Bai Shuangshuang's actions, but the fifth prince of the dynasty, Lord Jue, unexpectedly He opened his mouth and praised Bai Shuangshuang.But whatever.After all, Bai Shuangshuang is seriously injured now, and she doesn't know if she can survive.

"It's not you who set the fire, and father has no reason to pursue you." Bai Mingzhu took a black spot and said sarcastically, "I thought the fire was too small, why didn't that little bitch Bai Shuangshuang be burned to death in it?" .”

Zheng Shixu hit Bai Mingzhu: "Don't talk nonsense. Now that Bai Shuangshuang is famous, if you talk nonsense and let others hear it, it will be disadvantageous for you."

Bai Mingzhu coquettishly pulled Zheng Shi's arm, and said: "Oh, mother, what's the matter, there are no outsiders here. You know how much I hate that Bai Shuangshuang."

"I know, I know, I know, you have to restrain yourself. After all, you are the most honorable young lady of the Bai family." The Zheng family comforted Bai Mingzhu with a smile.

The two mother and daughter were chatting, when Zheng's door was suddenly pushed open with a "bang" from the outside, and the flag in Zheng's hand fell to the chessboard in fright.

Mrs. Zheng was about to look for Dongmei when she heard Bai Zhengzhong's low voice. Before he even entered the inner room, the voice of reprimand came in: "You bastard! Look what trouble you have caused me!"

When Zheng Shi and Bai Mingzhu heard the sound, they got up from the couch to welcome them. As soon as Bai Zhengzhong lifted the curtain, he saw Bai Mingzhu next to Zheng Shi, his angry face eased a little, and he said to Bai Mingzhu: "Mingzhu, you go out first, I will I have something to say to your mother."

Bai Mingzhu looked at Bai Zhengzhong delicately, and replied with a sweet voice: "Daddy looks so scary today."

Bai Zhengzhong was always helpless with this little daughter, because she was pregnant out of wedlock, and since she was a child, she felt that she owed her something, so she doted on her very much, but Bai Mingzhu was a well-behaved child who could act like a baby, no matter how naughty she was, she would still love her. Reluctant to preach.

Bai Zhengzhong stroked Bai Mingzhu's head lightly: "Good boy, you go out first, Daddy won't be angry."

Bai Mingzhu glanced at Mrs. Zheng, and seeing Mrs. Zheng nodded indiscernibly, she took Bai Zhengzhong's arm and shook it: "Daddy must keep his word, so don't be angry!"

"Okay, Daddy is not angry."

After Bai Mingzhu's episode, Bai Zhengzhong's anger did subside a lot, but he sat on the couch with a worried expression on his face, took a sip of the tea offered by Zheng Shi, and put it down heavily.

"Let me ask you, how has Shuangshuang been these past few years?"

Mrs. Zheng thought that Bai Zhengzhong rushed here because of the fire in the ancestral hall, but she didn't expect to ask about Bai Shuangshuang as soon as she sat down. She was not very happy in her heart, but she still kept a smile on her face.

"Naturally, the cost of food and clothing is as high as that of a bright pearl." Then he winked at Bai Zhengzhong: "What's the matter? Shuangshuang sued you, Master?"

"Complaint?" Bai Zhengzhong slammed the table: "Shuangshuang is still lying on the bed and hasn't woken up yet. Why is she suing me?"

"..."

"It's been so many days, and the doctors you hired are always helpless. If you didn't invite the doctor Wang who retired and returned to his hometown the year before last, you wouldn't know about Shuangshuang's serious illness!"

Mrs. Zheng sneered when she heard the words: "It turns out that the master didn't trust the doctor I invited, so he went to see the imperial physician? Could it be that I arranged for her to rush into the fire?"

"Why don't you want me to look for it? If it's really me looking for it, it's okay, this doctor Wang was found by the fifth prince! The fifth prince is kind, saying that the daughter of the Bai family who sacrificed her life to save the spirit is an example of righteousness, and there is no delay. Doctor Wang is invited here." Bai Zhengzhong stood up and looked condescendingly at the dissatisfied Zheng Shi: "Do you know? How many gossips are there in the Imperial Academy today? They say that I am not good at discipline, and I let my original wife's daughter-in-law continue to be abused." Bai Zhengzhong was so angry that he paced around the room and said, "Do you know what the doctor Wang said? He said that Shuangshuang was tired all the year round, and his body was weak because of uneven meals for a long time, and he was not healed by the wind and cold in the cold winter. You say, this is Was it caused by the fire?!"

"..."

Seeing that Mrs. Zheng was in a daze, Bai Zhengzhong pointed at her angrily: "What are you talking about, what are you doing!"

Mrs. Zheng wondered, the doctors she found were all taken care of by herself, even if she saw Bai Shuangshuang's illness, she probably wouldn't go out and talk nonsense, how did it spread?Could it be that doctor Wang who is about to retire and return home?
"I've already visited Shuangshuang. The room she lived in was even inferior to the servants! Back then, Mingzhu said she liked Shuangshuang's room, and I promised to change rooms for her sisters. I didn't want you to abuse Shuangshuang!" Bai Zhengzhong said. With a dry mouth, he sat back and took a sip of tea: "Physician Wang said that Shuangshuang should not move now. When Shuangshuang wakes up, you should immediately ask Shuangshuang to move to the main courtyard."

Mrs. Zheng came back to her senses, thinking that Bai Zhengzhong had never lost such a temper with her when the ancestral hall was on fire, and now, because of Bai Shuangshuang, he came here to accuse her so much. Tears said: "Master, I also want to treat Shuangshuang well, but Shuangshuang has always cared about me, she will not accept how I treat her well, and even proposed to move to such a remote courtyard, I, Mrs. Bai , is it that easy to do?"

Where did she expect that Bai Zhengzhong, who was immersed in the admiration of his colleagues for "teaching daughters well", would suddenly be secretly accused of conniving and abusing the daughter-in-law?Not to mention that there are even people who directly brought up the fact that Mrs. Zheng was his concubine back then.

Bai Zhengzhong waved his hands impatiently: "Don't talk about it, let someone send charcoal fire to Shuangshuang's room immediately."

"..."

Having finished speaking, Bai Zhengzhong didn't intend to stay any longer, and got up to leave, but before he left, he stopped and looked deeply at the aggrieved Zheng, and said word by word: "Even if Shuangshuang's biological mother has passed away, , but she is still the eldest lady of my Bai family, even if you don't admit it, people outside will admit it, you should figure it out!"

"..."
