Chapter 756 Punishment
When Bai Yu was invited into Bai Shan and the others' room, Manbao was giving them acupuncture.
They were lying on the bed. There was charcoal burning in the room, so it wasn't very cold. They had needles stuck in their heads and their eyes were tightly closed. There were no visible injuries on their faces, but the way they were lying there seemed to be serious injuries.
Zhou Silang followed in and immediately said, "Master Bai, you've seen it too. Shanbao and the others are truly injured, and seriously so. Although it's not visible on the outside, they're injured internally. Look, there's blood clots in their heads, and acupuncture is the only way to remove them."
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang closed their eyes tightly.
Zhou Silang said with considerable experience, "They came back yesterday complaining of headaches and dizziness. Erlang also complained of back pain. Upon closer inquiry, we discovered that the second young master of the mansion had kicked him in the waist, and he almost fell down. Would you like to take a look at the wound on his waist?"
Bai Yu looked at the two young men lying on the bed with some suspicion. He was about to take a look when Mr. Zhuang, who was sitting nearby, coughed lightly, stood up and bowed. "Master Bai, the two children need to rest. If you have anything to say, why don't we go to the front hall to talk?"
Bai Yu had never met Mr. Zhuang before, so he hesitated and said, "Who is this..."
Zhou Silang immediately said, "This is Mr. Zhuang, the teacher of the three of them. He is the one who makes the decisions in the family."
Bai Yu knew that Bai Shan had a teacher who accepted him as his disciple after offering him tea.
Teacher and father are the same. Here, Mr. Zhuang is indeed more decisive than his distant cousin. Of course, the meaning is also very clear. This is the head of the Bai Shan family. If there is anything, you can talk to him.
Bai Yu thought for a moment, bowed slightly to Mr. Zhuang, and followed him to the front hall.
He could use his status as an elder to teach Bai Shan and Bai Cheng a lesson, but with the parents present, it would be inappropriate for him to lecture them without going through Mr. Zhuang.
Before leaving, Bai Yu took another look at the two young men lying on the bed, frowned slightly, and was quite suspicious.
Last night he interrogated the servant who followed Bai Ning. He said that it was the three of them who beat up his son yesterday. His son was beaten under pressure, so how could he have suffered internal injuries?
As soon as Bai Yu walked out, Manbao stood on tiptoe to take a look outside, then immediately jumped over and closed the door.
Bai Shan quietly opened his eyes and took a look, then immediately shouted, "Quick, quick, take out the needle from my head."
Bai Erlang also lowered his voice and shouted, "And me, and me."
Manbao went to remove the needles from them and said, "Don't worry, I didn't prick you randomly."
But Bai Shan still refused to accept the acupuncture on his head. Even though it didn't hurt, he couldn't get over it mentally.
After removing the needle, the three of them quietly gathered by the window and looked out through the cracks. "What do you think, how will the master deal with this?"
Bai Shan encouraged Man Bao to go to the trial, "You weren't pretending to be sick just now, you can go and take a look."
Manbao also wanted to go, so he quietly opened the door and slipped out.
No one paid any attention to Bai Shan and Bai Erlang, who stood at the window and looked for a long time, but couldn't see anything, so they could only go back to bed.
Bai Erlang despised Bai Ning's behavior and said, "If you can't beat him, just complain to the adults. The adults even came to our house. His character is so bad. We will never play with him again."
Bai Shan nodded in agreement.
They had a lot of fights when they were in Qili Village. Of course, most of the time they were the ones beating others, and the villagers in the village would not come to them to fight.
Similarly, if they are beaten occasionally, their parents will not come to their door to complain.
Unless the teacher calls the parents, these kinds of fights between children are usually resolved by themselves.
Manbao slipped into the front hall and lay down by the door, listening quietly.
Zhou Lijun brought tea out from the kitchen, passed by her as if he didn't see her, and went straight into the front hall to serve tea.
Zhou Silang followed Bai Yu into the front hall. He was afraid that Mr. Zhuang would be embarrassed and suffer a loss. Besides, he was also one of the parents, so naturally he had to be present.
Bai Yu's expression was relatively normal, but as soon as he entered the door he described the miserable state of his son. Not only was his face and nose bruised, but his body was also covered with many bruises.
Of course, Bai Yu generously stated that he was not here to settle scores today, after all, the three children were brothers from the same clan.
He was simply curious about why they were fighting. Bai Yu glanced at Zhou Silang across from him and said, "The three brothers all have the surname Bai, so they should be of the same blood and have gotten along well before. I simply can't figure out why they suddenly started fighting. I heard that the young lady from the Zhou family was also involved in this fight?"
This is a suspicion that Manbao is trying to sow discord.
Zhou Silang raised his eyebrows and was about to tell Mr. Zhuang about his second son's incompetence and his attempt to frame his sister, but Mr. Zhuang coughed lightly and Zhou Silang's open mouth closed again.
Mr. Zhuang gestured for Bai Yu to drink his tea. After he had finished, he asked, "Didn't Lord Bai ask your son?"
Bai Yu said, "I asked, but the child just kept crying. He said he had an argument with the three of them and started fighting. But I thought, they are brothers from the same clan. No matter what, it's not right for three of them to beat one person up like that, right?"
Mr. Zhuang smiled slightly and said, "Master Bai doesn't know, and I can't speak ill of your family, let alone the children. Otherwise, you can go back and ask your son."
Zhou Silang finally couldn't hold back his words anymore and said, "Master Bai, our Zhou family may be from humble origins, but we also have a clean family background. My youngest sister was raised in the palm of your hand. If you don't like us, you can just refuse entry. Why are you bullying us after welcoming us in?"
Bai Yu was startled, his mind racing as he denied it, "Impossible! How old is my son? And how old is Miss Zhou? How could he possibly bully her?"
Zhou Silang was still confused, but Mr. Zhuang suddenly frowned and said, "Master Bai, please be careful with your words. Zhou Silang didn't mean that. Why don't you go back and ask your son about the situation? If the second son refuses to speak, the people in his courtyard will know, right? Bai Shan and Bai Cheng are also innocent. Seeing their senior sister being wronged, and it was caused by them, they are naturally angry."
"But Lord Bai is right. No matter what, fighting is always wrong. So after their injuries have healed, I will force them to come to my house to apologize and punish them severely. I will also give an explanation to the Second Young Master of the mansion."
Bai Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. Erlang bullied Zhou Man, but was it because of Bai Shan and Bai Cheng?
He was confused, but seeing that Mr. Zhuang had already served tea and sent the guests away, he couldn't stay any longer and could only get up and say goodbye.
Manbao, who was hiding outside the door, quickly went into the kitchen and came out after everyone left. "Mr.——"
Mr. Zhuang glanced at her and said, "Okay, the matter is resolved. Call your two junior brothers out and let them be punished together."
