Chapter 228: House Thief
The person behind this attack was actually the person. In fact, Bai Ning knew it. He had made two plans before arranging the ambush on Wei Zhongxian. If he could kill the other party on the way, it would be good. It doesn’t matter if he couldn’t kill it, and there were follow-up plans. This time he hit him, others would also hit him. The defense he could think of was mainly kept at home, after all, he had a weakness.
All the way home, the chariot slowly drove into the backyard of the side door. He stood on the chariot, where the side yard was lively, and then walked out of the carriage. On the other side, Xifu was competing with Xiao Linglong for a box that looked like a needle and thread. The third sister Bai Di was persuading on both sides. Chen was knocking on melon seeds and watching the fun. When he saw Bai Ning coming towards him, his face changed and turned around and left.
"Linglong is obedient, your aunt Chen said that you can't play with these things and will hurt you."
"No, no, I won't hurt myself."
"Sister, please help Xifu persuade her. What if I hurt myself?"
"What's wrong with you?"
Bai Ning was approaching at this time and heard what they said, but some words were unclear. Perhaps there were still some unwiped blood stains on his body. Xifu no longer competed with Linglong for the box in his hand, so he hurried over. Even the third sister Bai Di was shocked by the blood stains on his body.
"My husband is bloody. You are injured. Let me tell me to see if it is wrong. Xifu goes to get medicine. Don't run around. I'll get medicine."
She hurriedly turned around to find medicine, but Bai Ning pulled her wrist and turned back, and hugged her in her arms. Bai Di immediately covered Linglong's eyes, blushed, and whispered: "Linglong is not allowed to look."
"Why do you have to cover your eyes every time?" Xiao Linglong twisted in her aunt's arms unwillingly.
On the other side, Bai Ning hugged Xifu very tightly, smelled the black hair that was emitting the fragrance of flowers, and gently said something to her ear, comforting: "My husband is fine, no one is injured, don't panic, don't be afraid. It's just that some bad people want to steal my husband's money, but were beaten away by my husband, and their blood is theirs."
As he said that, he raised his hands and shook the two broken holes in front of Xifu's eyes.
Xifu was released, with some confusion on his face, and a hint of anger gathered on his worried face, but it was still pitying. She held Bai Ning's hand and shook it twice, "My husband, there are so many bad people outside, you can bring that person at home with him, he is very powerful, like a monkey, can make somersaults on a tree. Well, it should be very powerful."
At the entrance of the courtyard, Sun Buyuan, who had just come to watch the fun, heard Xifu talking about him, his cheeks bulged up, and he turned around and left with anger, and a peony plant in the flowerbed next to him was in trouble.
Bai Ning still smiled and said something to Xifu, then looked at Xiao Linglong, who was holding the needle and thread box and was not letting go. She squatted down and looked straight, "What is in the box? Why do you want to compete with your mother?"
"Godfather's body smells so smelly." Xiao Linglong quickly turned her head away. She was obviously not used to Bai Ning's bloody smell, but she still opened the box in her hand, pushed it over, and said crisply: "Here, it's just some needles."
Needle?
Bai Ning's pupils shrank, and somehow, the shadows of Xiao Pinger and Helian Ruxin immediately appeared in his mind. He patted Linglong's little head, "Why do you like needles?"
"Practicing martial arts" Xiao Linglong stammered for a moment and still told the reason.
In an instant, Bai Ning roughly understood the meaning of the system saying that Dongfang Bubai was divided into two. Now it seems that Xiao Pinger, who has the title of Dongfang Bubai, should have inherited the character of Dongfang Master, and his goddaughter should have inherited martial arts. As for how the martial arts were passed on, he did not plan to investigate it carefully and would not correct anything.
He wanted to see how Xiao Linglong would grow to.
"Go, stop fighting with your mother. My godfather allows you to play with this box of needles, go and play." Bai Ning patted Linglong's head and was about to go inside. He turned around. From the corner of his eyes, he saw a figure flashing in the corridor, and couldn't help but snort coldly.
He turned around and looked at Bai Di, "Sister, are there too many people in the mansion?"
Bai Di came up and nodded and said, "You were not here yesterday, so you did hire two people, one maid and the other one for sex." But then, she hesitated, "It was yesterday that my elder brother recruited me. He said there were too few servants in the huge mansion, so he bought two from Yaman Street. Do you think it's inappropriate? Then sister will dismiss them now."
"Need not."
Bai Ning waved his hand, turned around and walked for a few steps, and was silent for a moment, "Let the maid come to the study to see me."
The third sister Bai Di frowned when she saw the blood on her younger brother's body, and glanced at the courtyard where her elder brother Bai Sheng was sitting in a complicated expression. She nodded with difficulty. She ordered Chunmei and Dongju, two maids who were not far away to serve Chunmei and Dongju, who were serving the side, and said, "Go and make some hot water and serve the Admiral to take a shower and change clothes."
The two maids not far away bowed their heads and replied timidly: "Yes" and then left quickly and went busy.
Looking at the brother's back as he walked away, Bai Di whispered: "Big brother, brother."
She turned around and walked back with difficulty
The sun rises, study.
Bai Ning was wearing a regular dress, with a crown and a tied hair, and sat quietly at the desk, looking at a simple book. The obscure fonts did not hinder his detoxification study of one font at a time. The footsteps sounded outside the door.
"Come in."
The door creaked and pushed open.
A woman walked in with a timid manner in the servant's service and knelt down and drooped her head: "I've seen the Admiral."
Bai Ning did not raise his head and pushed the teacup over and said, "Make tea."
The maid responded to "yes" and her eyes were set on the figure in front of the desk with her head down. She went over carefully. When she took the set of imperial tea cups, she pretended to accidentally rub the back of her hand against the other party's hand, and then secretly glanced at the other party's reaction, her eyes full of hidden murderous intent and secret joy.
Bai Ning put down the book expressionlessly, withdrew his hand, took out a white silk handkerchief and wiped the back of the hand that the other party touched. His voice and tone was like ice, "Are you looking for somewhere to start?"
In an instant, the maid who was a little proud of her face turned pale, and the teacup in her hand was trembling and took a step back. Suddenly, a sleeve of her robe brushed over. Her whole body seemed to be hit by a terrifying impact. She fell to the ground with a blow, her body moved, and her face was tilted out with a mouthful of blood.
Bai Ning stood up, and his eyes suddenly became cold, and his eyes swept over the maid who was lying on the ground half dead. "I can't even hide this little murderous aura, and I dare to be arrogant."
Outside the door, when the monk heard the movement, he rushed in and immediately arrested the assassin who pretended to be a maid.
"Drag it out, and there is another servant who came in with him, chopped it up and fed it to the dog."
"yes!"
When he saw these people who came to assassinate him, he suddenly felt a little irritated. When he thought of who was recruiting him, Bai Ning was inexplicably angry and sat back at the desk and knocked on the desk.
"Defense every day and night, it's hard to guard against thieves at home."
"I think you have made merits before, what else do you want to keep you rich? Being greedy for small gains is all trivial matters. Letting the thief in to harm your family will make your heart become crooked. Bai Sheng, you are seeking death by yourself."
