Chapter 469: Not knowing what is good and what is evil

Hearing his father's tone, Bai Yunsong clenched his fists and tried to suppress the anger in his heart.

“My father taught me that I should not take over these things.”

Old Mrs. Bai watched her son lower his head in frustration, feeling extremely distressed.

"Son, just think about it. You are the leader of Willow Bay and the biggest official in the village. Only by not giving them face can you show your majesty."

“My dear grandson has told me that the people in the village are all ignorant fools. Apart from being greedy and taking advantage, we can’t benefit from anything else.”

As soon as Mrs. Bai said these words, the old patriarch narrowed his eyes and said, "Old lady, don't talk to Anbang about village affairs in the future, so as not to disturb his study."

“You don’t need to say this? But the village is sometimes crying and being robbed, and it’s never quiet for a day.”

Hearing the old man’s advice, Mrs. Bai gave him a blank look.

"Just like today, people are blocking the door and making trouble. How can my dear grandson not hear it?"

The old patriarch paused, then squinted his eyes and filled a pot of tobacco, put it to his nose and took a sniff.

"Although your mother's words are not pleasant to the ears, she is the one who is responsible. She should hold her airs properly and don't get involved in everything. As the old saying goes, if you are not deaf or dumb, you will not be a rich man. This is exactly what you are doing. Lier."

Hearing his father’s reminder, Bai Yunsong blinked.

“My son understands, and my father is worried. To be honest, I’m really tired of this, and I really want to give up my job.”

Looking at his son's sluggish appearance, the old patriarch puffed away at his cigarette.

"There is really no money to be made in the position of Li Zheng. It's just for a reputation. If you feel tired and panicked, it's okay."

As soon as the old patriarch said these words, Mrs. Zheng’s eyes flashed and she moved her mouth. After all, she did not dare to speak in front of her father-in-law.

Since the head of the house took over the position of being an upright lady, when she goes out, others call her an upright lady and everyone compliments her. To be honest, she really enjoys it.

 Suddenly returned to the starting point, somewhat unwilling to do so.

A few people talked for a while, and Bai Yunsong said he was tired and went back to the house to rest for a while.

Zheng came back to serve him. Looking at the man leaning on the couch, he quickly poured him a glass of water and put it into his hand.

"Master, you are really tired these days. Take a good rest at home and don't go out these days. It's freezing to death in the ice and snow, and our whole family is pointing at you. If you are tired, it will be good for our family. What should I do?"

Hearing his wife's comfort, Bai Yunsong raised his head and drank a bowl of water, then handed the bowl to her, his tone much better.

 “Don’t worry, I’m not that vulnerable.”

He didn't even notice the stupid people in the village. Helping them was intentional, but the result was a mismatch between effort and gain, which made people irritated.

 Zheng was completely relieved when she saw that he didn't really look sad.

 “You really don’t want to be upright anymore?”

“It’s a bit annoying. I face that group of people every day and it’s annoying to watch.”

Bai Yunsong didn't pay attention to Zheng's eyes and said it without thinking.

When Mrs. Zheng heard this, her heart skipped a beat.

"Head of the family, if you relinquish the responsibility of Li Zheng now, wouldn't all the hard work in the past be in vain? Since you became Li Zheng, you have devoted yourself to the villagers, and you have been hard and tired through wind and rain. Just stepping down like this, I always feel Terrified at the loss."

Hearing his wife’s dissatisfied tone, Bai Yunsong was stunned.

"What, you still want to make up for it? Dad has been a righteous man his whole life, and he has not gained much. I have only been a righteous man for a year, so what do I have to lose?"
