Chapter 590: Invasion
The villager shook his head: “I didn’t take a closer look, it seemed that he didn’t take anything with him. When Zhenzhu saw their house was on fire, she seemed wanted to go back, but she was taken away by Bai Dazhu and Liu Guihua. I was surprised at the time. The house was on fire, but they didn’t stay to extinguish the fire. Where are they going?”
As soon as the villager’s words came out, the faces of Bai Zhi and others changed. This villager didn’t know that Bai Erzhu’s family had been poisoned, so they felt strange, but Bai Zhi knew that the answer to this incident was almost coming out… …
Village Chief Li said: “I will report this case tomorrow morning. If they did this, they have no conscience.”
Conscience? Bai Zhi sighed again, but said nothing, and simply pulled Zhao Sue back.
Zhao Sue asked in a low voice: “Look at it, Bai Dazhu poisoned them?”
Bai Zhi nodded her head: “8 out of 10.”
“But why? It doesn’t make sense. Bai Erzhu and Zhang Shumei are very diligent and can make a lot of money. The first branch can’t even afford to buy food to eat. This winter, they rely so much on the second branch. They killed the second branch’s family, what good it will bring? They also burned their house and ran away, what will they do survive? Beg outside?”
Bai Zhi shook her head: “There must be other reasons for this, but we don’t know. Whatever it is, it has no relation to us. Let’s just our own lives. Let the Bai Family worry about themselves.”

Early the next morning, Bai Zhi went to the town with Zhao Sue after giving Bai Erzhu’s family needle treatment.
In the afternoon, Bai Zhi saw that there was no business in the store, so she planned to go back to sleep for a while. When she was about to close the store door, Boss Chen rushed over in a hurry with full of sweat and shouted as soon as he saw Bai Zhi: “Zhi’er, it’s good you’re here. Hurry up and go with me.”
Bai Zhi was confused: “What do you mean? Where are we going?” Then, she realized that the people on the street were running desperately. She didn’t know what they were running for.
Boss Chen anxiously said: “The Xiye Country sent several armies to cross Luoying Mountains. The nearby villages were captured and killed. We should enter the city. We had to go there quickly, otherwise, it will be too late.”
The hand stove in Bai Zhi’s hand slipped and fell on the ground, as her face drastically changed. She immediately called Zhao Sue next door: “Sister-in-law, something happened, come out quickly.”
Zhao Sue was sewing handmade dolls. When she heard Bai Zhi’s cries, she immediately put down the work in her hands and ran out: “What’s the matter? What happened?”
She took Zhao Sue’s hand and said with reddened eyes in anxiety: “The troops of Xiye Country entered our border. I’m afraid our village has been affected. We have to go back now.”
Zhao Sue was so scared, she almost faint to floor. Zhao Lan and Ru’er were both in the village. What if something happened? What should they do?
Boss Chen grabbed Bai Zhi’s wrist and said anxiously: “Zhi’er, you shouldn’t be like this. If you go there now, you will die.”
Bai Zhi shook her head: “I can’t care so much, I want to save my niang and Ru’er. She’s still so young. I must go back, don’t stop me.” She pushed away Boss Chen and quickly led the carriage over and helped Zhao Sue, who’s legs softened, get in the carriage: “Sister-in-law, don’t worry. Maybe they haven’t entered our village, we should hurry up and go there now.”
