Chapter 697 Farce

Looking at a few pairs of puzzled eyes, Baiyunxi spread his hands and said, "I went to Xiaowu Academy and specifically asked the gatekeeper, Uncle Chang, but no one had gone to Xiaowu.

When several people heard the news that their mother brought back, they couldn't help but be stunned, "You didn't find Xiao Wu? Then where did she go?"

"Is it true, as rumored in the village, that she had a crush on someone, didn't want to accept the family's arrangements, and eloped with him?"

Li covered her mouth and stared at several people, as if she had guessed that they were really similar.

"People in the village are spreading rumors that Xing'er has a lover, who has a nose and eyes. Some people also say that they have seen Xing'er having a tryst with a man in the back mountain. Otherwise, she would not have run away from home at the juncture when the matchmaker came to her door. She must be the one she likes. People choose to elope because they feel conflicted with the arrangements made by their elders.”

Hearing Li's tone, the corners of Baiyunxi's mouth twitched, and the people in the village just heard the wind and heard the rain, just spreading rumors.

Xing'er's running away from home must have something to do with the marriage proposal. The girl was taught by her mother to have a very high standard. She felt that even though she was a queen, she couldn't look down on the country men at all, and it was impossible for her to have a tryst with him.

Mrs. Du tied her apron on and shook her head, "If that's true, then she is too stupid. She would make people laugh if she took her as a wife and then ran away as a concubine."

After listening to the speculations of several people, Bai Yunxi waved his hand.

"Don't make any guesses. It's useless to say anything before you meet someone. Also, just talk about these things at home. Don't say too much when you go out, lest people think you are gossiping and have a bad influence. ”

"Don't worry, Mom, we will never talk nonsense outside." Du Shi nodded, turned around and went out, preparing to cook.

Baiyunxi also walked to the corridor and sat down, enjoying the breeze, drinking tea and resting.

At this moment, there was a noise outside, mixed with crying, from far to near.

"You Bai family are bullying people. My good granddaughter will be thrown away as soon as she wants. If you don't give me an explanation, I will fight with you today."

"Yes, let them pay compensation. A big living person disappeared after saying no, and bullied no one in our Chen family..."

With everyone making noise, a group of people poured into the village from outside and turned directly in the direction of Baiyuntang's residence.

Bai Anjing ran back from the door, "Mom, the Chen family is here to cause trouble. Grandma Xing'er is taking the lead. She is leading a group of young people to the second grandmother's house."

"Looking at this situation, there will inevitably be another scene."

Mrs. Li was stroking her belly with gossip in her eyes. Bai Yunxi's mouth twitched when she saw this. This person loves to join in the fun.

"You are inconvenient now, so don't move forward. If you hit your stomach, you will cry."

"Mom, I know the seriousness and I won't go any further.

Mr. Li chuckled and sat down on the chair next to him.

"I heard that early in the morning, Xing'er's mother went to the third concubine's house to look for her cousin and aunt. She was busy looking for people and didn't stop all day. My uncle also joined forces with the clan to help search. Today, everyone is looking for someone. Very tired."

"To be honest, Xing'er ran out on her own this time. It was the mother and daughter's fault, and it had nothing to do with the second grandma's family. But the Chen family will definitely attribute the responsibility to the second grandma's family. If they take the opportunity to cause trouble, they may be blamed. It’s a wild goose chase again.”

Listening to the tone of the children, Bai Yunxi did not object. They all said that marrying a virtuous wife was the best example right now.

He came back restless, causing trouble every now and then, and making people look as big as one or two every day. Just thinking about it makes me feel annoyed.

The family is not harmonious and people are irritable. How can they think about anything else? Such a vicious cycle is a perfect sign of a prodigal family.

There was a gap between them and the second uncle's natal family, and the children in the family understood that, so in order to avoid trouble, they did not join in the fun.

Until it got dark, and with a burst of curses and noises, a group of people left the village angrily.

When the Chen family walked in front, the Song Wang family and Zhang family came in behind.

"I live a life like this, not to mention the chickens and dogs, and the angry people are heartbroken. "

Seeing Zhang's helpless expression, Baiyunxi quickly poured them a glass of water.

"I heard it just now. The Chen family has left. My ears are finally clear. You should also take a rest. You will be tired after a busy day."

Mrs. Song Wang pressed Mrs. Zhang on the chair.

"Yun Xi is right. When you meet such a family, you two are really affected. However, you two sisters are really not so tough. When you started fighting with Mrs. Chen, you would be on equal footing. If not for everyone's support, , I guess both of them will suffer."

Listening to Mrs. Song's sighing tone, Bai Yunxi was stunned for a moment. Thinking of the second uncle's character, it was understandable.

"Both of them are fierce, so naturally neither one is willing to admit defeat."

Originally, the second mother-in-law didn't like Chen Jiao and her daughter. If it weren't for the sake of her dowry land, Chen Jiao would have been in a lot of trouble if she wanted to get in.

"Well, it doesn't matter if you admit defeat or not. If you put people from the Chen family on the same side, you will be so angry that you will roll your eyes in a short time."

Mrs. Zhang shook her head, sat down next to her, took a sip of tea,

"From now on, when the son-in-law of the family gets married, you have to keep your eyes open and not let anyone in. If you find a troublemaker, you will lose two years of your life even if your life is taken."

"Who says it isn't?"

Mrs. Song Wang agreed with her face. Fortunately, Mrs. Bai was a powerful person, and the two families were evenly matched. If it had been another family, the Chen family would have been crushed.

Thinking of Bai Yunxi going to the county today, you would know what she was going to do without asking.

"You went to the county today to see An Sheng, but you didn't see Xing'er, right? I tell you, don't be soft-hearted. I've opened my eyes to the Chen family's character today. If anyone gets close to them and wants to live a peaceful life, I'm afraid there is no hope."

Listening to Song Wang's warning, Bai Yunxi glared at her,

"In order to live longer, I won't cause trouble for myself... I rushed to the county early in the morning and asked, and the girl didn't go to find Xiaowu at all."

"It shouldn't be, that girl is arrogant and ambitious enough. Your son is the only one in our village who is about the same age as her. There's no reason not to give it a try."

Song Wang looked at the two of them in surprise, and after a while, she slapped her thigh,

"Oh my God, that girl won't really have a favorite boy, right?"

Zhang and Bai Yunxi looked at each other and shook their heads to deny it. Unless she can meet a boy with better conditions than Xiaowu, there is no reason to give up Xiaowu, a good seedling.

"Forget it, everyone has their own destiny. We are just worrying about others. I hope she will be blessed."

Although Xing'er's leaving home has some causal relationship with her family, she can't just compromise and let her drag Xiaowu down, right? So, in the final analysis, the biggest reason lies with them.

Although some words are unpleasant to hear, people really need to know themselves in order to be looked up to.
