Bear to Leave the Boss Again Bai Ruozhu’s spirits lifted, and she walked to the doorway of their home, feigning shock, “What kind of offense did Sanlang commit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Will it impact our family?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My grandparents are too old to bear these burdens.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There had already been onlookers, many sighing and whispering amongst themselves that Sanlang from the Bai family was insensible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Bai Yihong hesitated a little, realizing he could no longer avoid it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Lin Ping’er refused to let him go, and they tugged at each other in the doorway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zehao and Bai Zepei rushed out, quickly understanding what was going on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad, I can go, my uncle and I can carry him back.” Said Bai Zehao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Lin Ping’er became even more adamant, “No, you’re about to get married, you can’t commit such taboo!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I should go, I don’t believe in these superstitions.” Er Lang calmly suggested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ping’er immediately held him back, “No, you need to take the civil service exam next year, you can’t ruin your luck.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the family arguing at the door, Bai Ruozhu knew what was going on but didn’t dare say a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She feared not the criticism of being heartless, but it was difficult to explain Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang’s issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the family was discussing, the elderly Grandpa Bai showed up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Fuxi favored simple attire, his style distinguishing him from the typical villager.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, he carried himself with a high dignity, meticulously maintaining an air of decorum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, however, his usual grace was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hurried over with a half run, half walk, tears on his aged face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yihong, are you not willing to rescue your nephew?” With a coarse breath, Grandpa Bai started shouting before he could even reach them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Yihong’s family tensed up and hurriedly helped support Grandpa Bai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m too old and weak, otherwise, I would have gone myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wouldn’t burden you all this way.” With a woeful expression, Grandpa Bai said, “Sanlang is still young, he has his life ahead of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He can change his misbehavior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How can we not save him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if his leg isn’t properly set?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the old man on the brink of tears, they couldn’t decline him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Yihong then said: “Dad, you don’t have to worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My older brother and I will bring Sanlang back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ping’er was obviously displeased, but Bai Ruozhu held her back, subtly shaking her head at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just when they thought the matter was settled, Grandpa Bai expressed his difficulties again, “Yihong, get your older brother to go with you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your older brother is a scholar, he doesn’t have much physical strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might even have trouble just climbing the mountain, let alone lifting Sanlang.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This remark annoyed even Bai Ruozhu, who had been avoiding trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought, ‘You are just unwilling to let your older son take risks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s his own son who’s in danger, why should he burden others?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why didn’t he say that Bai Yibo is a failure?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, my eldest son is about to get married, he can’t go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My second son can’t go either, he isn’t even as strong as my husband!” Lin Ping’er raised her voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sternly glaring at Grandpa Bai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no way she’d risk her sons’ lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over her dead body!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those secretly listening began whispering among themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if Bai Yibo was weak, could he really not carry a teenager?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially when he was lifting him together with Bai Yihong?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unbeknownst to them, Grandpa Bai suddenly slapped Lin Ping’er.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spectators had hardly grasped what happened when they heard the crisp sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ping’er’s cheek immediately swelled and turned red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Father, what are you doing?” Bai Yihong yelled, quickly stepping in front of Lin Ping’er.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu was also furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She initially felt she shouldn’t speak at this time, but why did Grandpa Bai hit her mother?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grandpa, we have separated from the main family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We are all adults now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did you hit my mother in front of us?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How can we respect you if you disrespect us?” Bai Ruozhu yelled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Grandpa Bai could be killed, she would not hesitate to kill this old man herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sanlang is also her nephew and your family!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could you be so selfish?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re telling me I can’t hit her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you don’t save Sanlang today, Lin Ping’er will no longer be a part of the Bai family.” Grandpa Bai bellowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Supporting the teary-eyed Lin Ping’er, Bai Ruozhu said to the family, “Let’s all go back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’re not saving him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nobody is leaving my mother, we’ll leave the Bai Family Sect if we have to!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The onlookers were taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some of them tried to mediate, “You can’t do that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can’t a family solve their problems amongst themselves?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandpa Bai, just let your eldest and second sons go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy is still screaming on the hill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you don’t hurry, his leg may not be repairable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Fu was also anxious and pained for Sanlang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stomped his foot in frustration, “I’m not stopping my eldest son from going, but he really doesn’t have the strength to carry a person.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With two lifting him, they wouldn’t need to carry him alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they really can’t, they might as well have the second son carry him.” Someone suggested, clearly out of options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was told that if he was carried on their back with a broken leg, it wouldn’t heal properly.” Bai Fuxi expressed his worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu led her family back, saying as they walked, “I’m not afraid of offending people anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today it’s either my father and uncle going to carry him together, or we’re dropping the matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why isn’t my uncle rescuing his own son?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is he afraid of bad luck?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What about my father?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And my older and younger brothers?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We have already separated from the family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We are the ones tilling the fields and my uncle doesn’t lift a finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We have already done more than our due, we don’t owe him anything!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bastard!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You don’t owe your uncle, but you owe me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I gave birth to Bai Yihong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He will owe me for his whole life!” Having forsaken all decorum, Grandpa Bai glared and yelled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Bai Ruozhu only sneered, nonchalantly replying, “That’s correct, my father does owe you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it’s bad luck, he will go to help you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you won’t let your eldest son take a risk, my father is willing to do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But my older and younger brothers are not your children, they don’t owe you anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it is about obeying their parents, our mother will not allow them to go no matter what.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shouldn’t they be filial to their Mother first?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing, Bai Ruozhu revealed a contemptuous smile, airily remarking, “What a spectacle, my uncle can’t even save his own son out of fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any other parents would risk their lives to save their children.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Bai Ruozhu asserting herself against her grandfather, the villagers disagreed regardless of whether her arguments were valid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, when she directed her words towards Bai Yibo, the attention of many was drawn away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They quietly speculated amongst themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some said Bai Yibo was a coward, neglecting kinship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others said Bai Yibo often put his father in a difficult position, pushing his brother’s family to take risks, and even cursed his brother’s family not long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandpa Bai’s hand shook as he pointed at Bai Ruozhu, hysterically yelling, “You lowlife, who has lost all face for the Bai family, I will remove your name from the ancestral hall!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Generally only women who have brought disgrace upon the family have their names removed from the ancestral hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it usually happens when a woman gets married and enters her husband’s family, Bai Ruozhu was an exception since she had a husband move in with her family, and thus her name remained in the Bai family’s ancestral hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Grandpa Bai’s words, Bai Yihong and Lin Ping’er both grew anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Bai Ruozhu’s name were removed from the ancestral hall, she wouldn’t be able to face anyone or even remarry!\u003C\u002Fp>",1375,"2026-05-30T14:08:51.305Z","2026-06-01T04:31:25.023Z",1,"novelbin.me","52439f948135107412aa793e697931c7d04aed87fed20af14f844d9b87bad295","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-174","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-172",2707,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabandoned-woman-busy-farming-cover.jpg"]
