Mrs. Liu busily said: “Niang, have you gone crazy? Today, Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan got 100 silver coins. And they got a lot and a field in their hands. All those things belong to them. If we make peace with them, won’t those things belong to us Bai Family?”
When Bai Dazhu heard this, he immediately rushed forward: “Yes, that’s right. What my wife said is right, as long as we make peace with Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan and we brought them back in the family. We can confiscate all those things, right? And in the future, if they want to separate again, we will let them leave.”
Old Lady Bai coldly snorted: “Those cheap sluts. If it weren’t for those silver coins, lot and field. I will really not allow them to step in our Bai Family ever again.”
At this time, Mrs. Zhang and Bai Zhenzhu had already put down their bags in the yard. When they heard the conversation, Mrs. Zhang couldn’t help but sneer: “As if Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan will come back.”
Mrs. Liu looked at Mrs. Zhang and angrily said: “You still know how to come back? Why didn’t you come back early?”
Mrs. Zhang also got angry: “Why? Is your heart aching because I didn’t suffer a board of punishment?”
Old Lady Bai had a headache and replied: “Shut up, can’t you see that the family is lively enough?”
Then, she turned her head and glared at Mrs. Zhang: “Since you came back, you go and cook. You don’t have any business here.”
Don’t have any business here?
Mrs. Zhang really wanted to turn around and leave. If she didn’t hear that her son, Bai Fugui was beaten with 10 boards of punishment, she will not come back at all.
Mrs. Zhang walked toward her son, when she saw his face was pale and couldn’t stand straight, her eyes redden immediately: “Fugui, how are you feeling? Is it painful?”
Bai Fugui shook his head and said: “Niang, it’s good you came back, I’m not hurt.”
Mrs. Zhang’s heart was filled with hate. If it weren’t for that greedy old lady and Mrs. Liu, her son will not be implicated.
“Let’s go, niang will help you go back in the room.” Bai Erzhu also felt bitter inside his heart. His son was not supposed to be implicated in this.

Back in their room, Mrs. Zhang put down their bags on the bed and turn her head to face Bai Erzhu: “Do you have a pig’s brain? You know that old woman and Liu will blackmail people for money, but you still followed them with Fugui? Have you lost your mind?”
Bai Erzhu’s butt was smashed for 15 times, so his butt was blooming red like a flower. He wanted to go to the bed, but Mrs. Zhang stopped him. So, he couldn’t help but say: “What else should I do? If I don’t go with them and they got benefits from Zhao Lan, will they give our family some shares?”
“Benefits?” Mrs. Zhang sneered and pointed her finger to his butt: “Is that the benefits your talking about?”
Bai Erzhu looked helpless when he said: “Who would have thought that dead girl, Bai Zhi will go to the government office to complain and bring back an official with her? If I knew she will do that, will I still follow them?”
Mrs. Zhang poked Bai Erzhu’s head and said: “What else can you think inside this brain of yours? Didn’t you notice that Zhi’er is very different from before? Do you still think you can teach her a lesson?” Mrs. Zhang turned her head and look from afar. She looked at Old Lady Bai, who was whispering to Mrs. Liu in the hall, then coldly said: “When they were still here, you ruthlessly drove them out. But now that their life improved, you’re all thinking to bring them back? Do you think all the things in this world are easy to get? Bai Erzhu, if you are Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan, will you come back?”
