The eldest young master asked someone to take care of the second young master's wife, so the servants in the courtyard can also benefit from it.

Xiaotao happily helped Baichi wash up. She couldn't stop her cheerful expression and it kept coming out, which made Baichi confused.

When he went to bed, Bai Chi finally remembered the couple who were taken away by Zhong Yunxiao's men in the morning.

"Xiao Hei, how's the situation over there?"

"It's terrible! Master, your husband is very capable. He directly had the two of them sent to the government office on charges of highway robbery."

Xiao Hei had been watching sweet love stories for the entire afternoon, and now that he remembered his serious business, he was very clear and quickly told the whole story of what was happening over there.

The Zhong family is a wealthy family and often does charity work, and they have a very good reputation among the people.

This time, the eldest son of the Zhong family said that these two people were blocking the road and robbing, and they should be dealt with. Naturally, they would be beaten with a stick first when they were sent to the government office.

And now, he has been thrown into prison. It is estimated that he will not have the chance to come out in the short term. He will have to spend the whole New Year in prison.

Bai Chi didn't react much after hearing this, but just asked again:

'What about the two at home?'

He has two younger siblings, the younger brother is sixteen and the younger sister is fifteen. The brother and sister were almost raised by the original owner since they were born.

To be honest, the three siblings had a good relationship at the beginning.

Unfortunately, the Zhong family later proposed marriage to the Bai family, and after that, people often said that Bai Chi would marry into the Zhong family to enjoy a good life in the future, and that the Zhong family had countless thousands of taels, etc.

These words were said so many times, and since their home was just outside the county town, they could still see the grandeur of the Zhong family when they occasionally went into the city.

In particular, the second young master of the Zhong family has always been high-profile and extravagant, and he is very generous and philandering.

After hearing this so many times, the two younger brothers and sisters felt unbalanced.

We are all peasants from the countryside. Why can my eldest brother marry into the Zhong family and enjoy a good life, while they can only work in the fields for a living?

At this time, the parents were instigated to ignore their children, and they spent all day gambling with large sums of money, not caring about the family at all.

Not only that, the couple also boasted that the Zhong family had plenty of money, and when Bai Chi married into the Zhong family in the future, their family would never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.

When the time comes, I will marry my son to a rich lady and my daughter to a wealthy son, and our family will be able to live a life of luxury!

Perhaps after hearing this kind of talk so many times, the brother and sister's mentality changed. They became greedy and thought, "As the eldest brother who will enjoy a lifetime of happiness, Bai Chi should give everything for them!"
