Bai Jiaxuan and the others returned to Bailu Village and were welcomed by the old, weak, women and children.
Zhou Qiang also followed the crowd and joined in the fun.
Everyone in the surrounding villagers smiled brightly.
Zhou Qiang also smiled. He knew that people's smiles were hard-won.
Lu Zilin didn't come. He has no face to come.
This time is Bai Jiaxuan's highlight moment.
Throughout Bailuyuan, Bai Jiaxuan became famous again.
This time it's not because of the woman, but because Bai Jiaxuan has a strong waist, can take on tasks, and is not weak. There is no need to pay the extra grain in Bailuyuan. This is Bai Jiaxuan's contribution.
At this moment, everyone in Bailuyuan was grateful to Bai Jiaxuan.
But it only lasted a while.
People are forgetful.
In a short time, if there is a conflict of interest with Bai Jiaxuan, Bai Jiaxuan will be scolded to death.
night.
The moon is still very round.
No clouds.
The moonlight illuminates the earth.
Zhou Qiang poured himself a drink alone in the yard.
"Do you want to remind Bai Jiaxuan?"
"Bai Jiaxuan looks great today."
"In a while, when Zishui County changes its county chief, I'm afraid Bai Jiaxuan will be the first to be arrested."
“The only thing that can save Bai Jiaxuan is the letter Mr. Zhu wrote to Governor Zhang.
Mr. Zhu had a profound intention when he led Bai Jiaxuan into the Qing army camp.
Perhaps Mr. Zhu figured out that Bai Jiaxuan was in trouble at that time.
Therefore, he took Bai Jiaxuan into the Qing army camp.
Before Mr. Zhu went to Fang Sheng’s hometown to teach, he specially left a letter.
He told Mr. Zhu Bai to take out the letter if something big happened.
Mr. Zhu is considered an expert. "
Zhou Qiang shook his head and smiled.
"It's better to mind your own business. I'll go to Bai Jiaxuan's house at noon tomorrow and eat fried noodles made from grass jelly. Let Bai Jiaxuan prepare early so he doesn't get caught in jail in a daze."
Bai Jiaxuan's family.
Xiancao was screaming in agony.
"Mom, Mom, how are you?" Bai Jiaxuan looked anxious.
"Stop being annoying, stop being annoying!" Bai Zhao was very impatient.
"Young master, hurry, hurry, the midwife is here." Lu San came back with a middle-aged woman on his arm.
"Quick!" Bai Jiaxuan hurriedly helped the midwife into the house, "Mom, the midwife is here."
"Come in quickly and close the door."
Bai Jiaxuan closed the door and waited outside.
The grass jelly is about to grow.
In this day and age, giving birth to a child is a life-and-death experience.
Many women have not passed this hurdle.
In later generations, it was also quite dangerous for women to give birth.
The husband, to some extent, owes his wife a lot for giving birth to a child.
Bai Jiaxuan walked around anxiously.
This is the first time Xiancao has given birth to a child.
But this is not the first time Bai Jiaxuan has experienced such a scene.
Bai Jiaxuan's first wife died in childbirth.
Now Xiancao has to experience such a 'life and death calamity' again.
Bai Jiaxuan's heart kept worrying. He was afraid that something about his first wife would happen again.
Fortunately nothing happened.
Not long after, Xiancao successfully gave birth to a boy.
Everyone in the Bai family, including Lu San and Hei Wa, all looked happy.
"The Bai family has a heir!"
The next day.
morning.
Zhou Qiang hasn't had time to go to Bai Jiaxuan's house yet.
He was informed to go to the ancestral hall to discuss matters.
Zhou Qiang probably guessed what was going on, so he went to see the excitement.
Ancestral hall.
"Let's discuss the matter of the next clan leader." Bai Bingde mentioned the clan leader again.
"Bai Jiaxuan becomes the clan leader!" someone immediately shouted. This is a member of the Bai clan from Bailu Village.
"Yes, Bai Jiaxuan!" The villager surnamed Lu also supported Bai Jiaxuan.
Some people have long disliked Lu Zilin.
Lu Zilin's reputation is not good.
After Tian Fuxian arrived, Lu Zilin acted like a loser and often tipped off the news.
These villagers all saw it.
Even the man named Lu no longer supports Lu Zilin.
This time, the villagers unanimously elected Bai Jiaxuan as the clan leader.
Lu Taiheng and Lu Zilin did not object, and Lu Taiheng actively supported it.
The situation was over, but Lu Taiheng still wanted to lose face and did not dare to behave like a monster again.
"Dingli!" Mr. Leng shouted, he must be the host, "Bai Jiaxuan, the 18th patriarch of Bailu Village!"
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Everyone cheered in unison.
Zhou Qiang also shouted. He behaved exactly like the villagers.
Only Lu Zilin looked ugly and forced a smile.
Previously, Tian Fuxian also promised to recommend Lu Zilin as the clan leader. No chance now.
Bai Jiaxuan became the clan leader.
Immediately start worshiping ancestors and other rituals.
Bai Bingde was well prepared and quickly completed Bai Jiaxuan's appointment as clan leader.
Zhou Qiang watched with relish.
Etiquette is very interesting.
After the meeting.
Bai Jiaxuan was still surrounded by people.
Zhou Qiang looked at it, but he didn't pass.
When he was about to leave.
I heard someone say: "The fairy grass gave birth to a boy last night."
"Yes, the Bai family finally has a daughter."
"Bai Jiaxuan, this is a double happiness."
"It's not like that. Bai Jiaxuan is very proud of having a boy and becoming the clan leader."
Zhou Qiang was stunned and a little disappointed, "I won't be able to eat the noodles made from grass jelly in a short time."
Zhou Qiang returned home.
I took some cooked food, packed some eggs, filled a bottle of wine, caught an old hen, and took it to Bai Jiaxuan's house.
Here, someone has already arrived.
"Xiaoqiang is here, bringing so many things?" someone said hello, looking at the food and wine with eager eyes.
"Yes, sister-in-law Xiancao has given birth to a baby. Come and have a look." Zhou Qiang dealt with it casually and gave the things to Widow Li.
That's right, it's Widow Li.
Widow Li took the initiative to come over and help with cooking and other things.
Bai Jiaxuan became the clan leader, and Widow Li set her sights on Lu Zilin and Bai Jiaxuan.
"This old hen is good. Let her stew the grass jelly to replenish her body." Widow Li smiled. Her help here is not in vain, she can bring some leftovers back.
What Widow Li does is similar to Widow Qin in Qin Huairu in "Siheyuan".
It's just that Widow Li in "White Deer Plain" didn't cheat and could only make ends meet.
There is no "Yuan Datou" like He Yuzhu who helps Widow Li raise her children and dedicates everything to Widow Li.
"Xiaoqiang, come and sit quickly." Bai Jiaxuan greeted warmly.
"Brother Jiaxuan, congratulations, you are now a father and a clan leader!" Zhou Qiang said with a smile on his face.
"We are all happy together. Sit down quickly. You have brought so many things over. Why are you so polite?" The smile on Bai Jiaxuan's face couldn't stop.
Said some pleasant words.
As for the post-Autumn settlement, Bai Jiaxuan might be arrested, but Zhou Qiang didn't say anything that would disappoint him. It's not appropriate to say that now.
Didn't stay long.
"I'm leaving first." Zhou Qiang said hello and left.
Zhou Qiang sometimes doesn't like crowds of people.
After returning home, Zhou Qiang continued to live his own life.
A few days later.
Zhou Qiang just wanted to go to Bai Jiaxuan's house again to remind Bai Jiaxuan.
But something happened again.
Bai Bingde left.
However, Bai Bingde left without regrets.
Xiancao gave birth to a boy.
Bai Jiaxuan became the clan leader.
Bai Bingde did everything he wanted to do.
When he was about to die, he called Bai Jiaxuan to the bedside and told him: "Jiaxuan, remember what Dad said.
No matter what time, the Lu family must be accommodated.
White deer, white deer, both white and deer, that’s why it’s called Bailuyuan.
We must keep this principle. "
After all, Bai Bingde's situation is bigger than Lu Taiheng's.
Lu Taiheng always wants to plot against the Bai family.
Bai Bingde didn't take the Lu family seriously.
Before he died, he also told Bai Jiaxuan not to be cruel to the Lu family. Bailuyuan cannot live without the Lu family.
Bai Bingde's funeral was well organized and it was a grand burial.
Waited for a few more days.
Zhou Qiang went to Bai Jiaxuan's house again.
No more politeness.
Zhou Qiang said directly, "Brother Jiaxuan, you still have to make preparations in advance. From ancient times to the present, when people rebel, there is no reason why they should not be punished. Those who should be arrested must be arrested."
"What?" Bai Jiaxuan was shocked, and his expression suddenly changed.
In fact, Bai Jiaxuan never dared to think about 'settling accounts after the fall'.
Now, Zhou Qiang broke through.
Bai Jiaxuan no longer dares to take chances and has to face the disaster that may come next.
Bai Jiaxuan was sweating profusely and his face was red in just a few seconds.
This is what Bai Jiaxuan fears most in his heart.
If it doesn't go well, you'll die.
"Xiaoqiang, I understand." Bai Jiaxuan forced himself to speak.
“The news I heard in the provincial capital is that other counties don’t harvest more grain, but our county does.
Brother Jiaxuan, what you did is right, and all of us support you. "Zhou Qiang didn't say much, nor did he mention Mr. Zhu.
Now is not the time. Zhou Qiang was inappropriate.
this day.
Zishui County changed its county magistrate, whose surname was He.
The previous County Magistrate Shi was transferred.
This County Magistrate is similar to the Magistrate of Echeng in the movie "Let the Bullets Fly". He is the Magistrate just to make money.
Join forces with big business owners to plunder people's money.
Not a few days.
An arrest notice was suddenly posted in Bailu Village.
At the same time, four gunmen broke into Bai's house and tied up Bai Jiaxuan.
Lu San hurriedly stopped him, "What are you going to do!"
The gunman didn't talk nonsense. He put the gun to Lu San's head and shouted: "Get out of the way!"
Lu San shivered in fright and subconsciously moved away.
Bai Jiaxuan was dragged out.
Mrs. Bai Zhao was crying for her father and mother on the ground. Her legs were so frightened that she couldn't get up.
Xiancao was holding the baby, also looking anxious, not knowing what to do. But fortunately, he is still calm, much better than Bai Zhao.
The front door of the Bai family.
Four gunmen had just escorted Bai Jiaxuan out.
"Stop!" Zhou Qiang shouted.
Zhou Qiang is here.
Bailu Village is not big.
Four gunmen came, and Zhou Qiang knew it soon.
He knew that these four gunmen wanted to capture Bai Jiaxuan.
Zhou Qiang came immediately.
"Get out of the way!" The two gunmen pointed their guns at Zhou Qiang.
"Be bold!" Zhou Qiang was fearless, "I know Captain Zhang from the Governor's Mansion in the provincial capital, please show me some respect!"
Zhou Qiang is pulling the skin of a tiger. Captain Zhang and Zhou Qiang are fair-weather friends.
If something happens to Zhou Qiang, Captain Zhang will definitely not help. Unless you give enough money.
When the gun bearer heard this, he was a little worried and did not dare to point the gun at Zhou Qiang again.
"Listen carefully, this is the clan leader of our Bailu Village. We can't be tied up by you like this!" Zhou Qiang took the lead and stopped the four gunmen.
Other villagers in Bailu Village also gathered around.
"That's right, let go of our clan leader!"
"Release our clan leader!"
"Let it go!"
Seeing that they were surrounded by a group of people, the gunman immediately fired his gun into the sky.
"Bang bang!" The two gunshots frightened the villagers, and no one dared to say anything anymore.
The man carrying the gun shouted: "Get out of the way!"
The surrounding villagers hurriedly hid aside.
Only Zhou Qiang remained motionless.
"I'm telling you, our clan leader's brother-in-law knows Governor Zhang from the provincial capital!" Zhou Qiang shouted again.
"What?!" The four gun bearers were stunned, "Brother-in-law Bai Jiaxuan knows Governor Zhang? Is there such a thing?" The four gun bearers were a little suspicious and didn't know what to do.
"I know you are following orders and I won't make it difficult for you.
You can take Bai Jiaxuan away.
However, you can't go away tied up.
Be patient and serve.
Be careful, Governor Zhang will get angry and peel off your skin! "
"These" four gun-carrying men were hesitant.
"I'll go with you, don't tie me up.
My brother-in-law and I have been to the Governor's Mansion before and met Governor Zhang. "Bai Jiaxuan also reacted and hurriedly raised the governor's banner.
"You four young men, carrying guns, are you afraid that people will escape?" Zhou Qiang continued.
"Okay." The four gunmen untied Bai Jiaxuan, let Bai Jiaxuan get into the carriage, and left.
Bai Jiaxuan, the patriarch of Bailu Village, was taken away.
None of the surrounding villagers came forward to stop him.
"Xiaoqiang, what should we do?" Xiancao asked hurriedly. She has come out. Lu San is also nearby.
Just now, when I saw Zhou Qiang blocking the gunman, I thought I could save Bai Jiaxuan.
"Sister-in-law, we have to borrow Mr. Zhu's name and ask Governor Zhang for help with this matter," Zhou Qiang said.
"Mr. Zhu" Xiancao was hesitating.
"Third brother, go to Bailu Academy quickly and pick up the eldest sister." Zhou Qiang ordered directly.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Lu San immediately went back to the backyard to drive the donkey cart.
"Sister-in-law, let's go into the house first. You just gave birth to the baby, so don't be tired." After Zhou Qiang finished speaking, he said to the people around him: "Okay, it's okay, we're all gone."
Lu Zilin's family.
Lu Zilin looked happy.
Bai Jiaxuan was caught.
If something goes wrong, he will be shot to death.
Bai Jiaxuan is dead, and the clan leader can only be him.
"Dad, I'm afraid Bai Jiaxuan won't be able to come back."
"He asked for this all on his own. It's not easy to be a first-timer. If Bai Bingde was still here, he would be pissed to death."
"Fortunately, I didn't take the initiative. I still can't do this."
"That's right, our Lu family doesn't do things that are in the limelight."
The Lu family father and son made sarcastic remarks.
Bai family.
Mrs. Bai Zhao was still paralyzed on the bed, crying non-stop and muttering, "My grandson is pitiful, he will no longer have a father."
When the critical moment came, Bai Zhao cursed Bai Jiaxuan to death. This is also a reserved program.
At this time, Mr. Leng came.
In the TV series, something happened to Bai Jiaxuan, and Mr. Leng tried his best to rescue him.
Mr. Leng is a good person. Although he has feudal ideas, he is quite kind. Normally, when treating diseases and saving people, we only take money from the rich. The poor are given whatever they have, or they have nothing, or nothing.
"Mr. Leng is here, sit down quickly." Zhou Qiang stood up and greeted.
"Xiao Qiang, what's going on now?" Mr. Leng also heard what Zhou Qiang did just now.
What happened just now spread among the villagers.
At the critical moment, Zhou Qiang was more courageous than ordinary adults. He dared to force the gunman to untie Bai Jiaxuan when he was pointed at a gun.
"Mr. Leng, I have asked Lu San to pick up the eldest sister from Bailu Academy.
To save Brother Jiaxuan's life this time, we have to use Mr. Zhu's name to ask Governor Zhang. "Zhou Qiang said it directly without beating around the bush.
After hearing this, Mr. Leng thought for a moment, nodded, and was a little worried: "It's just that Mr. Zhu is not here, and water from afar cannot quench the thirst for nearness."
"It doesn't matter. Later, I will accompany my eldest sister to the Governor's Mansion in the provincial capital. No matter what, I ask Governor Zhang to come forward and help."
"That's all it can do." Mr. Leng knew that Zhou Qiang had been to the Governor's Mansion.
Not long.
Lu San came back to pick up Zhu Bai.
"Sister, let's go to the provincial capital now, to the Governor's Mansion, and ask Governor Zhang for help out of Mr. Zhu's face."
"Okay, okay, let's." Zhu Bai was about to agree, but suddenly remembered something, "By the way, when my head of household left, he left me a letter. He said that if something big happened at home, he asked me to take it out."
"This should be a great tip left by Mr. Zhu!" Zhou Qiang said hurriedly.
"What? A clever idea?" Lu San and others looked confused.
"Sister, where is that letter?" Zhou Qiang asked.
"Still in the academy."
"Then let's go to the academy first." Zhou Qiang looked back at Xiancao, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry, Mr. Zhu should have already made arrangements."
"Xiaoqiang, I'm going to leave it to you this time." Xiancao had just given birth to her child, otherwise she would definitely have to go to the provincial capital with her.
"It's okay, sister-in-law, you're welcome."
After a brief tidying up, Zhou Qiang, Lu San, and Zhu Bai set off soon.
Mr. Leng also left together. He returned to the Chinese Medicine Hall.
After such an incident, both Xiancao and Mr. Leng looked at Zhou Qiang with admiration.
