After a month, the family who had been eating in their respective yards finally got together again.
That night, Zhong Yunxiao also told the others directly that after the 49th day of his second brother's death, he would find someone to re-arrange an auspicious date and welcome Bai Chi into the family.
When these words were spoken, everyone except the twins who knew nothing and were so shocked that the food dropped from their mouths, was not surprised at all.
Even Bai Chi herself just blushed slightly and did not object.
This is the default.
The fact is that this morning, after leaving the old couple's yard, Zhong Yunxiao started coughing again because he was anxious, and it seemed very serious.
Bai Chi was worried and took care of him personally for the whole day.
They fed him medicine and food. During this time, Zhong Yunxiao had a fever and sweats, so Bai Chi wiped his body.
When Zhong Yunxiao regained consciousness in the afternoon, he was obviously weaker than in the morning, but his mental state was very good.
Not only that, he asked Bai Chi if she was willing to marry him after the mourning period for her second brother.
Bai Chi agreed.
She still agreed with a blushing face and a shy look.
It was for this reason that Zhong Yunxiao couldn't wait to share this good news with everyone.
However, this matter should not be publicized too much, at least not now.
As for the two elders, they had figured it out long ago. After all, they had already taken the trouble to marry the noble person mentioned by the national master.
Now, in order to keep the noble lady, they let her remarry the eldest brother. Even if the news gets out, it is just the Zhong family trying to keep the noble lady.
Looking at it this way, it's much better than "uncle and sister-in-law having an affair".
This matter has been settled for the time being. We can send invitations as soon as the second young master's seventh day of mourning passes.
As for who he will marry, there is no need to publicize it deliberately, as it will spread quickly.
Now that their relationship has become clear, it is even more legitimate for Zhong Yunxiao to look for Bai Chi.
It can be said that except for sleeping at night, they are each in their own room and are together almost the entire day.
Especially during the recent Chinese New Year, Zhong Yunxiao was not busy. The first thing he did every day when he got up was to ask Bai Chi if he had woken up.
Now people in the mansion don’t even call her ‘Second Young Madam’ anymore, they just call her ‘Young Madam’.
Although the eldest young master had not asked for it, everyone could see that he would be much happier if she was called "Young Madam" directly.
If the eldest young master is happy, won’t others have a better life?
Taking advantage of the recent break, Zhong Yunxiao also picked a day with good weather and took Bai Chi to see the Zhong family's medicinal fields.
There are hundreds of acres of medicinal fields, and these are only those near the county town. There are many more medicinal fields in other places.
Zhong Yunxiao called the managers over one by one and introduced them to Bai Chi. He also told him about the most commonly grown medicinal herbs in the medicine field.
Bai Chi listened attentively and learned diligently.
The managers of the medicinal fields were whispering to each other behind the two men's backs, saying that they had never heard of the eldest young master getting married, so where did this young lady come from?
Naturally, people outside knew nothing about what was happening in the Zhong family mansion, and they thought this was the eldest young master's wife!
Zhong Yunxiao also allowed them to misunderstand, or rather, he hoped that others would think that Bai Chi was his wife!
This childish behavior was completely different from his usual calmness, and Bai Chi couldn't help but find it funny.
But these comfortable days were so pleasant that Bai Chi even forgot that he still had important things to do.
Until Xiao Hei finally couldn't help but remind him.
"Master, your parents have been in jail for ten days, and your brother and sister have been taken away by the casino thugs!"
Bai Chi, who was about to go to bed, slapped his forehead.
"I was just saying I forgot something, and it turns out it's their business!"
During this period, Zhong Yunxiao came to see Bai Chi almost as soon as he got up.
It can be said that except for resting at night, I spend the whole day with Bai Chi, completely disregarding what other people think.
But he still restrained himself and did not go too far, and went back home by himself at night.
Bai Chi had just sent Zhong Yunxiao out when he heard Xiao Hei's reminder. He then remembered that he had only been caring about Zhong Yunxiao during this period and had forgotten about that family.
'Hasn't it been released yet?'
"No, they said they would be locked up for half a month, but I saw that they were beaten with sticks, and they had no money to bribe the police or buy medicine, so their buttocks were rotten."
As Xiao Hei spoke, he also broadcast the video of the couple in the prison.
The two men looked even more miserable than the last time I saw them. The prison was dark and damp. Even if I couldn't smell it, I could seem to sense the stench coming from their bodies through the screen.
Especially when the video was just opened, I saw the old man catching a mouse and eating it raw, while his wife, who was standing next to him, had been beaten so badly that she could only moan and couldn't even get up.
It wasn't caused by being beaten with a stick. The scars on his face from punches and kicks were obviously caused by being beaten by the old man.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Hei sighed: "As expected, evil will be punished by evil, Master. We don't need to care about these people. They will get their retribution on their own."
People who are lazy and greedy will end up like this no matter how much money you give them.
Bai Chi waved his hand and asked Xiao Tao to go down and rest.
"Who said I don't care? They are my parents after all. How can I live my whole life with the reputation of being 'unfilial'?"
Xiao Hei blinked and said, "Master, what do you want to do now? Isn't what they have done enough?"
It is not the simple and stupid system it used to be. It will not think that the master has suddenly become kind-hearted and wants to repay evil with kindness!
"You're overthinking it. I just went there to see the fun."
Xiao Hei pouted. The prison was dirty and smelly. What was so lively and interesting about it?
