The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 27: Lessons Learned
Lin Bai looked towards the pavilion.

Pei Ning was still dressed in black, with a beautiful woman accompanying him.

The beautiful woman was none other than the one I had seen at Ren Biao’s manor. She was Ren Biao’s biological sister.

Lin Bai heard from people on the street that the county magistrate's first wife died early, and this beautiful woman was his second wife, named Ren Qiaoyun.

However, in Lin Bai's opinion, the dog county magistrate's decision to marry a gangster woman was really a result of lust and blindness.

Cicadas chirped as Lin Bai stepped forward, put down the gift box, and said with a bow, "Greetings, sir."

"You're welcome." Pei Ning put his hands behind his back and stood straight.

She is tall and the black clothes make her look even thinner, especially her waist.

I don't know if he wrapped something on his chest to facilitate martial arts training or if he was born like that, but there's nothing to say about it.

Lin Bai felt that she could never catch up with Sister Zhen no matter how hard she tried.

But she does look good, especially her fair skin, which looks even whiter against the black clothes.

The beautiful woman Ren Qiaoyun was not bad looking either, with a particularly slender figure, but in terms of temperament and aura, she looked more like Pei Ning's wet nurse.

"Mr. Bai said that the gift is valuable and he dare not accept it. Please take it back." Lin Bai bowed again, very politely.

"Since Mr. Bai doesn't want to accept it, there's no need to force it." Pei Ning nodded slightly, looked at Ren Qiaoyun, and gestured to leave.

This look was actually very impolite, but Ren Qiaoyun was not angry at all. She still had a smile on her face, bowed her head and knelt, and said, "Please chat slowly, my lord. I will go to the kitchen to prepare lunch for you."

After saying this, Yingying retreated, without any trace of the fierceness she had shown in the manor that day.

Lin Bai looked at the beautiful woman's back and wondered what the Qingyang Sect was like. The wife of a county leader was so servile and subservient, like a servant! Or was Miss Pei a great noble? When she was sick as a child, why was there no one to take care of her, and instead, Xiuxiu's mother had to make medicine for her?

"If you like her, I'll let her accompany you at night. She's very coquettish." Pei Ning suddenly spoke, interrupting Lin Bai's thoughts.

I just took a second look at her waist... Lin Bai blushed, and quickly bowed his hands, apologizing, "I dare not."

"It seems that you have only learned Mr. Bai's medical skills, but not his medical heart. I hope you will keep this in mind." Pei Ning still stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at him.

"Thank you for your advice. I will keep it in mind and act with a compassionate heart as a doctor in the future." Lin Bai was very honest.

"I heard that your family has been weaving mats and selling shoes for generations, and you are an old family in Huaxi County. Have you heard any rumors recently?" Pei Ning asked again.

You really asked the right person!

"They are nothing but bandits, knife-wielding assassins and the like." Lin Bai replied.

Pei Ning asked casually, not expecting to get any clues from Lin Bai, so he asked again: "Has anyone bullied Baicaotang?"

"That's not the case." Lin Bai shook his head gently and said, "Mr. Bai is kind and treats people based on his heart, not seeking fame or fortune. Even the gangs that are rampant in the North City rarely make things difficult for Baicaotang. But..."

Lin Bai hesitated to speak.

"Just say it." Pei Ning said in a light tone.

"Then I have to ask you a question first." Lin Bai showed his true colors, "May I ask how long you will stay in Huaxi County? If it's three to five days, I won't tell you."

Lin Bai felt that today's trip was not in vain and he had to get some news back.

"I came here to look for something and check on some people. I'm afraid I'll have to stay a few more days."

Pei Ning was actually outspoken. She put her hands behind her back, turned around, and with her back to Lin Bai, she lectured him again, "You are hesitant, your words are unclear, you are hesitant, you don't act like a man at all!"

This is the second time! So you are here to teach me a lesson today?

"I make a living by weaving mats and selling shoes, and I am often exploited by gangs. How can I be happy about this? If I hadn't been so cautious and submissive, I would have been thrown into the Huaxi River to feed the fish, and I wouldn't have angered you today." Lin Bai bowed.

Hearing this, Pei Ning turned around, stared at Lin Bai for a while, and said with a smile: "You have the same personality as my good friend, soft on the outside but strong on the inside, and can't stand being insulted. Well, I just said it without restraint, please don't take it to heart."

Lin Bai didn't say anything, but bowed again, but said in his heart: You'd better stay here for three to five months, until my Wuji Gong is stable, you'd better not be left alone!

"Where were we talking about just now?" Pei Ning changed the subject. "We were talking about whether someone bullied Baicaotang."

Lin Bai wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "A few days ago, the leader of the Qinglong Gang was killed by a flying knife assassin, and many gang members were also injured. Doctor Bai and I were called in overnight to treat the injuries. We didn't rest all night, but the Qinglong Gang didn't pay a penny for the consultation."

Lin Bai complained frantically.

"I see." Pei Ning nodded and asked, "Anything else?"

"There is nothing else. Most of the people who cannot afford the medical fees are from poor families and have no money." Lin Bai said honestly.

"I think Mr. Bai's health isn't very good, do you know that?" Pei Ning asked.

"The situation is too bad to be reversed. Mr. Bai is a kind-hearted doctor, but unfortunately God has no mercy on him." Lin Bai shook his head slightly and sighed sincerely.

Pei Ning was silent for a long time, and then he said, "Take good care of Mr. Bai in Baicao Hall, and don't let him work too hard. If you have any problems, come to me. Of course, I will not treat you unfairly."

Lin Bai leaned forward and saluted.

Pei Ning nodded and said nothing more.

Lin Bai went back the same way and met up with the little maid who had been waiting there. Not long after he walked out, he heard a loud shout.

"I'm exposed again..." Lin Bai was startled and quickly stood against the wall, looking towards the source of the voice.

I saw two people facing each other.

One of them was the person Pei Ning called "Senior Brother Jiang".

Senior Brother Jiang's clothes were in disarray. He covered his body with his grey robe in one hand and held a sword in the other.

The other person was the county magistrate. He was holding a knife in his hand and his eyes were bloodshot, as if his wife had been slept with by someone else.

"It seems that I overestimated the Qingyang Sect. The county lord is still brave enough to confront Senior Brother Jiang." Lin Bai began to doubt the strength of the Qingyang Sect.

Just as I was thinking about it, a woman ran out of the room, her clothes half covered and her hair messy, "Master..."

This person was none other than the county lord's second wife, Ren Biao's sister Ren Qiaoyun, whom I had just met.

"Whore! I was out there tracking down the murderer who killed your brother, but you were sleeping with someone else behind my back?" The county magistrate was furious and pointed a knife at Senior Brother Jiang, his eyes bloodshot.

"Let me make it clear first, I haven't eaten it yet." Senior Brother Jiang held the sword in his hand, his expression relaxed and he didn't care much.

There was no need to hear anything more, Lin Bai already knew what had happened and also knew that Senior Brother Jiang was actually one of my generation.

"It seems that the strength of Qingyang Sect is really unfathomable. The county lord's woman can sleep with him at will! She is not afraid at all even when caught in the act!" Lin Bai recognized the strength of Qingyang Sect again.

"Is she white?" someone asked.

"Not bad." Lin Bai replied casually, turned his head and saw it was Pei Ning, and quickly bowed, "What did you say, sir? I didn't hear it clearly." He thought to himself, you are no match for me.

"Are you going to keep looking?" Pei Ning said again.

Lin Bai immediately left.

Pei Ning leaned against the wall, watching the adultery drama with great interest.

After leaving the county government office, Lin Bai suddenly had an idea.

"I have never been able to think of a reliable way to test Sister Zhen... The Qingyang Sect is quite powerful. Do I have a chance to take action against them? How can I prove my guess?"

"Huaxi County is a dragon that has crossed the river, a local snake, and a chicken that has walked on the ground..."

"The more you stir the water, the more muddy it becomes! So why can't I secretly be a person who stirs up trouble...stirs up the situation?"

Lin Bai suddenly felt enlightened and his mind was clear.
