Chapter 753: All Poisoned and Mute

Until they left Zhang's house, Bai Yunxi sat on the carriage and touched the small bag containing money. Since adding milk tea drinks, it has opened the door to the taste of young girls, and the sales volume is no worse than that of ice bowls.

Because milk and tea were added to it, the price was set high, and no one had any objections.

After doing what she should do, Baiyunxi did not let Wenyou go to Xie's house for a walk in the following days. However, he heard that the old lady had been restless recently and wanted to stay in the temple for a while to pray for the Buddha's blessing.

As for whether she prayed for herself or her grandson, only she knew.

But one thing is certain, the old lady is not in the house, no matter what Ma does, there will be no chance to alienate the relationship between the grandparents and grandchildren.

As time went by, some rumors gradually emerged on the street, saying that the eldest son of the Xie family was about to take part in the autumn examination, but something happened at this juncture, and he must have been retaliated by someone.

As soon as this rumor came out, everyone suddenly remembered that Xie Dalangjun was a well-known talent in the county. He was supposed to shine in the last autumn exam, but something unexpected happened just before the exam and he missed the opportunity.

Unexpectedly, three years later, the same thing happened again. It was such a coincidence, and no one believed it if it was not man-made.

Who is most afraid of Xie Dalangjun taking the lead?

If he passes the exam, who will have the greatest impact?

As soon as this question came up, there were many speculations.

Some good people directly pushed the Ma family and her son to the forefront of the storm, and the more they inferred, the more reasonable they became.

Xie Li, the second son of the Xie family, still thinks that he doesn't even have a childish voice. He is obviously the son of the Xie family, but his talents are completely different. Where the root is, you can't go wrong by thinking with your toes.

Mr. Xie Dalangjun is the son of his first wife. He is of noble character and excellent in both conduct and learning. He is also the future head of the family.

Unless someone doesn't want him to take over the Xie family smoothly, they will stop Xie Yu's steps again and again. It is said that once the emperor and the courtier, it is obvious to all who is the most disadvantageous to the big man when he becomes the head of the family.

If they are siblings from the same mother, and the eldest brother is like father, even if the eldest son inherits the family, he will still take care of his biological brothers. But after one layer is separated, it's hard to say.

If the relationship between brothers is not good, the elder brother will not be able to find fault without taking care of him.

At present, the gap between the two brothers is too big. If word spreads, they will be laughed at. If they are angry and waiting for an opportunity to retaliate, it is hard to say.

The stepchildren and the children of the first wife have interests involved when the family is separated, and they cannot live in harmony. It is not surprising that they secretly fight to the death.

As the rumors intensified, Magistrate Xie finally couldn't sit still anymore. With a wave of his hand, he increased the number of patrols by the government officials. Anyone who spoke falsely would be whipped twenty times and fined five hundred dollars.

As soon as this order came out, the people in the county immediately shut up. But privately, he regarded these speculations as facts, otherwise the county magistrate would not have been angry and personally ordered people to shut up.

Although Bai Yunxi doesn't go out much, the Du family and others are in the shop every day, and the news they hear is always the freshest.

Every day she brings back some different rumors.

"Mom, do you think brothers from rich families all fight like this? That sounds weird."

She knew how badly Xie Yu was injured, especially his taciturn follower who actually died to protect his master. When she first heard the news, she was stunned. Who could be so cruel and dare to kill someone directly?

After hearing it for so long, she no longer wanted to be scared at first, but she still couldn't believe it.

Oh my God, even though we don’t have the same mother, we have the same father. How can we do this?

Seeing Du Shi's disbelieving eyes, Bai Yunxi twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Although they are all rumors, there is no smoke without fire. As for the final outcome, it depends on how the government decides. We just let it go in one ear and out the other, and don't interrupt."

"My mother said yes, and the customers queuing up in the store were whispering to each other, for fear of being grabbed by their pigtails."

Du Shi nodded, just hearing it was scary enough, she didn't dare to arrange it at will.

After another seven or eight days of this, Baiyunxi suddenly heard the news that the thief who ambushed Xie Yu had been caught and had been thrown into prison, and a trial date would be held.

At the same time, Zhang Yiren also came to visit her, "I knew you were at home, so I came without saying hello in advance."

"My door is open to Sister Yiren at any time, and it's not too late to welcome her."

Baiyunxi invited people to sit down in the courtyard. Wenyou poured tea for the two of them, and then automatically sat on the small bench next to her to pick vegetables.

Zhang Yiren looked at her with surprise and envy in his eyes. Yun Xi's luck is really extraordinary, to have such a powerful helper.

What she envied the most was that Wenyou was not only cold-tempered, but also very considerate in her work. She was also content with the status quo and could not find a neat person even with a lantern.

"Hey, people are so infuriating. I really want to hire Wenyou to help me train a few girls with flexible hands. Unfortunately, I also know that this will not happen overnight, but every time I see Wenyou, I can't help but feel sour. "

Hearing Zhang Yiren's unabashed envy made Bai Yunxi giggle.

"I'm really not humble about this. My Wenyou is amazing."

"Just say it."

Zhang Yiren glared at her and coughed slightly,

"The thief who ambushed Brother Yu was caught. Did you hear that?"

"Well, I just heard about it, I don't know if it's true or not."

Bai Yunxi raised her eyebrows. She already knew who was behind the scenes. Now that Magistrate Xie had announced that he had caught someone, he didn't know what he wanted to do?

"The people are real, they have all been recruited... I heard that they were beaten to a bloody pulp, and they can't even recognize them."

Zhang Yiren covered her mouth with a handkerchief, frowning in disdain,

"Those people insisted that no one was instructing them, and they had a unilateral grudge against Xie Yu. One of them was a chores in Xie Yu's courtyard, and one was the head of the farm. They said that Xie Yu killed them all, and they were unwilling to accept it, so they wanted revenge."

Bai Yunxi: "..."

No wonder they figured it out so clearly, it turned out that there was an internal thief.

"It's strange that those people just signed the signature, and then Xie Yu rushed over, and they couldn't speak. They said that their voices were poisoned."

Zhang Yiren approached Bai Yunxi and whispered,

"The prison boss who was on good terms with Xie Yu revealed that Xie Li went in half an hour ago."

Bai Yunxi pulled the corner of his mouth, and both of them had a clear look in their eyes.

After seeing Zhang Yiren off, Bai Yunxi shook her head speechlessly. Seeing that the rent was about to expire, she should pack up and go home.

Just the day before departure, Xie's house broke out another big news.

The mistress of the Xie family was having a secret meeting with someone, and was caught by Magistrate Xie. After being caught and tortured, it was discovered that the person was Ma's childhood sweetheart.

Before Ma entered the Xie family, the two had a promise to live together until old age.

It is said that Magistrate Xie spit out a mouthful of blood on the spot and threw the person into prison.

Ma refused to admit it, and made all kinds of excuses, swearing to prove her innocence. Just as she was hitting the pillar, news came from the prison that her childhood sweetheart had also been poisoned and her voice was mute.
