He accidentally revealed his true thoughts, and now his moral blackmail failed, and he became the target of everyone's criticism.
Faced with the pointing and talking of people around them, the couple couldn't help but retreat a little, but as if she thought of something, the old woman suddenly sat down on the ground, slapping her thigh and crying and howling.
"I have a miserable life. I gave birth to a son but he doesn't care about us or your brothers and sisters. They are still so young, and you are so cruel to let someone sell your brothers and sisters!"
The old man was also suddenly enlightened and burst into tears instantly.
"You unfilial son, you married into a wealthy family and you just ignored us. We can't even afford to eat at home during the New Year. Are you so cruel?"
The two of them cried and complained about the miserable situation at home, how they couldn't make ends meet, how they couldn't afford to eat, and how their younger brothers and sisters were starving to death or freezing to death, etc.
Seeing her crying and wailing, the people around who were pointing and talking seemed to feel sorry for her, especially Bai Chi, who had been well taken care of in the Zhong family for a while and had a fair and tender complexion. When she went out shopping, she was not only accompanied by several maids and guards, but also had a hand warmer in her pocket.
Looking at the two old people again, their clothes were all dirty and they were crying with tears and snot, looking so pitiful.
So someone spoke up.
"Second Young Master Madam, your parents look pitiful. They are at fault, but your brother and sister are innocent. It's Chinese New Year, so just give them something and celebrate the New Year first."
"Yeah, yeah, they are your biological brothers and sisters after all. You can't just watch them get sold off."
"Yeah, even though you eat and dress well at the Zhong family, you really can't..."
"What can't I do?"
A deep voice came from behind the crowd. Just a few words instantly silenced everyone present.
It’s Zhong Yunxiao.
Xiao Tao turned around in surprise: "Young Master!"
Great, the young master is here. Let’s see if these people dare to talk nonsense again!
Although she felt sorry for the Second Young Master's wife's younger brother and sister, when it came to gamblers like this, no amount of money would be a bottomless pit. She couldn't let the Second Young Master's wife give all her money to such people!
When the others heard that it was the eldest young master of the Zhong family, they quickly made way for him. Even the old couple who were throwing a tantrum on the ground got up and walked away.
They bet that Bai Chi wouldn't dare to let someone beat his parents in the street, but Zhong Yunxiao definitely dared to do so!
Last time at the gate of the Zhong family, Zhong Yunxiao said that if anyone gets close to the Zhong family again, he will have their legs broken!
But after looking carefully, they realized that this was not near the Zhong family, and the two of them became tough again.
But Zhong Yunxiao didn't give them any chance to continue being stubborn. He waved his hand and said:
"Come here, send these two guys who have been harassing the young lady to the government office and tell them that they failed to rob her and threatened her, ruining her reputation!"
Zhong Yunxiao has been in the county town for the past few years. Although he is not as powerful as the county magistrate, the Zhong family has hundreds of acres of medicinal fields. There are countless people working in the fields to earn money, and they really pay more wages!
The most important thing is that there are several clinics of the Zhong family in the county, which provide free medical treatment to the poor for one day every month!
This is a benefit that most people actually enjoy!
Zhong Yunxiao's words were much more effective than Bai Chi's strenuous acting.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone came forward, picked up the people one by one and walked away without caring what others thought.
The couple screamed in fear, and passersby were frightened by Zhong Yunxiao's dominance and quickly gave way, not daring to say anything about the second young master's wife's parents.
"Master, you see, these people are bullies who only fear the strong. Those who just urged you to give money are now daring not to say a word."
"They are indifferent to the matter and are keeping their distance. After all, whether they are paid or not is none of their business. Naturally, they would not contradict the real Zhong family for two strangers, especially since who knows if any of these families make a living from the Zhong family?"
Then Bai Chi looked at Zhong Yunxiao again: "Brother, are you done?"
Zhong Yunxiao nodded slightly in a feigned reserve, even his voice was filled with restraint;
"Well, were you shopping? Are you done?"
Bai Chi shook his head slightly: "I originally wanted to go to the clinic at home. I saw a recipe for medicinal food a few days ago and wanted to get some medicine and learn how to make it myself."
But I was interrupted, so I didn't have the chance to go.
Zhong Yunxiao: "Let me take you there. I also need to go to the clinic."
So the two of them walked away together like a young couple shopping, completely forgetting the little episode that had just happened.
Gambling couple?
What is that? Let’s talk about it after we finish shopping!
