After being forced to leave the marriage, I became the wife of a top scholar.

Chapter 82 Broken Relationship
After Lin Yunche came out of the county government office, he returned to Linjia Village as if nothing had happened, but things were in chaos at the Bai family's place.

Because Bai Chenming was carried back to the Bai family, Chen was startled when she came out to greet him. She immediately ordered the servants to carry the master back to the courtyard and told Uncle Liu to go to the century-old medical clinic and invite the best doctor.

She knew that Bai Chenming had gone to the county government office with Bai Qinglian, so she quickly looked around but couldn't see Bai Qinglian. She was very anxious. "Qiuwen, hurry up and go find the Third Miss. She can't be in any more trouble."

Qiuwen agreed and turned to go out to look for him.

Bai Qinglian did not go anywhere else at this time. She had just left the county government office when she was invited back by Magistrate Hu. He sternly warned her again and gave her a conclusion, saying that Li Ding was actually seeing things and there was no such thing as a man in black. If she dared to go out and talk nonsense, she would be imprisoned for false accusation.

Although Bai Qinglian was resourceful, she was still just a teenage girl. Startled by this, she didn't bother to ask Li Ding what would happen in the end and immediately ran out of the county government office as if her life depended on it.

She ran and thought all the way, but she couldn't understand why this had become her fault.

On the other side, after hearing the news that her father had fainted again, Bai Wanqing immediately brought Master Luo to the Bai family.

She came to the bedside and saw that Bai Chenming's eyes were closed and his face was even paler than last time. "Grandmaster Luo, please come and see Father."

Bai Wanqing then asked Chen Shi, who was gathered around the bed, to give way. Doctor Luo placed his hand on Bai Chenming's wrist and immediately frowned. "He was overcome with anger. Fortunately, someone immediately administered acupuncture to Master Bai, and his condition is currently relatively stable."

After finishing his speech, Master Luo wrote out a prescription for Bai Chenming, saying, "Take this medicine for three days. If there is no improvement after three days, I will prescribe another one!"

Master Luo handed the prescription to Bai Wanqing, and Bai Wanqing asked Ruixin to go back to the clinic with Master Luo to get the medicine.

After seeing off Doctor Luo, Bai Wanqing turned her gaze to Madam Chen, but Madam Chen quickly waved her hand, "Qing'er, why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I'm the one who angered your father?"

"Then you've wronged me! My lord only became like this after he went to the county government office!"

After listening, Bai Wanqing looked at Uncle Liu, and only after Uncle Liu nodded did she turn her gaze back.

"Does Mother know why she sent Father to the county government office?" Bai Wanqing's voice was cold.

Madam Chen shook her head. "How would I know! Maybe you caused some trouble that led to your father becoming like this."

Chen's words were pointed; the first thing that came to her mind was the betrothal gifts, and something must have happened to them.

Just then, Bai Chenming, who was lying on the bed, finally stirred. Bai Wanqing, unable to continue arguing with Chen Shi, quickly helped her father up, "Father, how are you?"

Bai Chenming opened his eyes, looked around, and realized he was back home. He suddenly sat up, "That rebellious daughter! That rebellious daughter! She's going to watch the Bai family be destroyed!"

Bai Chenming's angry outburst made everyone present afraid to even breathe. Madam Chen thought he was referring to Bai Wanqing, so she glared at Bai Wanqing and said, "Master, Master, please calm down. If you had known this would happen, you shouldn't have let her come to the Bai family at all!"

Bai Chenming then realized something and immediately said to Chen, "You're right! We shouldn't let her stay in the Bai family anymore. Have everyone go to the front hall now, I have something to announce."

Chen glanced triumphantly at Bai Wanqing, then left the house with Qiuwen.

Bai Wanqing didn't know why her father was so angry. Could it really be related to Lin Yunche's betrothal gifts?
"Father," Bai Wanqing called out tentatively.

Bai Chenming slowly regained his senses. He looked at Bai Wanqing, and tears streamed down his face. "Qing'er! Qing'er! It's all because of your father that you've suffered so much."

Bai Wanqing didn't know what her father meant by that, but she saw Bai Chenming immediately summon Uncle Liu in.

"Steward Liu, go to the county government office right now and find out what's going on with today's case!" Bai Chenming was extremely anxious. Only then did Uncle Liu remember that when the officials escorted the master back, they also brought back a letter.

He immediately took it out of his pocket and handed it to Bai Chenming, saying, "Master, take a look at this. It was sent by Magistrate Hu."

Bai Chenming perked up, picked up the letter, and read only one sentence: "Rest assured and recover; this is a false accusation."

Bai Chenming finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. He still had some doubts, and then looked at Uncle Liu, "Steward Liu, are you sure this letter was sent by the magistrate?"

Uncle Liu nodded, "They were indeed government officials. They handed them over to me when they brought you back, sir."

Bai Chenming's body went limp again after receiving a positive answer. "That's great! That's great!"

Then Bai Chenming looked at Bai Wanqing beside him, his eyes still red, "Qing'er! Father almost couldn't protect you."

Although Bai Wanqing didn't know what was going on, she understood the seriousness of the matter. At this moment, Madam Chen acted quickly, efficiently summoning everyone in the Bai family together, even Furong, who had married into the Du family, was called back.

Bai Qinglian tentatively asked Chen what she was doing. Chen only told her it was a good thing, so she didn't ask any further questions and quietly waited for her father to arrive.

When Bai Chenming and Bai Wanqing arrived at the front hall, everyone was already there.

Bai Chenming sat in the main seat, and Bai Wanqing sat to his lower right, a seat that Furong had specially reserved for her.

Bai Chenming glanced at Bai Qinglian, his eye twitching slightly, and said, "Although my Bai family is not a prominent clan, from the moment you were born, I have hoped that each of you could uphold kindness and stand firm in this world."

“But some people forget their original intentions and are left with only jealousy, hatred, and even the desire to harm their own siblings. I have already forgiven her once and punished her once.”

"Now she's gone even further, disregarding the lives of the Bai family, and has even taken this baseless accusation to the authorities!"

"What is this? This is putting our whole family's lives at risk!"

Bai Qinglian knew she had angered her father greatly this time, so she just pursed her lips and didn't dare to say a word.

Chen glared angrily at Bai Wanqing, but the more she listened, the more something seemed off! Bai Chenming doted on Bai Wanqing so much, when had he ever punished her without even saying a word?

Bai Furong and Bai Chengnan were both shocked by their father's words and dared not utter a sound. Furong looked at her older sister with some worry, fearing that their father was angry with her.

Seeing that no one was speaking, Bai Chenming said, "After doing such a thing, the Bai family really cannot keep her."

"Qinglian, I'm giving you one month. Find a place to move out as soon as possible!"

"From now on, I will pretend that the Bai family has no daughter like you, and you should pretend that you have never had a father." After Bai Chenming finished speaking, he closed his eyes tightly, unwilling to look anymore.

"What?" Madam Chen was the first to stand up, looking at Bai Chenming in disbelief.

Even Bai Wanqing and Bai Furong were shocked, and Bai Chennan burst into tears, "Father, why...why did you send Third Sister away!"

While others were shocked, Bai Qinglian was filled with hatred, especially when Bai Chenming said he would kick her out of the Bai family.

"Father, are you really siding with your eldest sister? Are you going to force your youngest daughter to die for her sake?" Bai Qinglian burst into tears, not expecting her father to make such a decision.

Madam Chen cried out and begged for mercy, "Master, have you gone mad! That's our daughter! What did she do to deserve being kicked out of the house!"

Bai Chenming gave a wry smile and slowly opened his eyes. "What did she do? Do you want to hear what she has to say?"

Immediately, Bai Wanqing and the others turned their attention to Bai Qinglian.

But how could Bai Qinglian say that? She pursed her lips, tears streaming down her face, but refused to reveal what she had done.

Bai Chenming's eyes also welled up with tears. "Go! Leave the Bai family! The Bai family can't tolerate you anymore." It was clear that Bai Chenming was truly disappointed in Bai Qinglian this time.

Madam Chen immediately pulled Qinglian aside and said, "Lian'er, no matter what you did to make your father so angry, you should apologize to him and tell him that you will never do it again! Your father will definitely forgive you."

Bai Qinglian was afraid. She couldn't leave the Bai family, so she listened to Chen and immediately knelt on the ground.

"Father! I didn't think this through! I know I was wrong, you can't disown me!" Bai Qinglian said, crying.

"Inconsiderate?" Bai Chenming said with his eyes closed. "You've been too thorough. Others may not know what you've done, but I do. You're going to ruin your eldest sister and the entire Bai family!"

"I'm just asking you, what good will doing this do you?"

Bai Chenming's voice was almost a sob.

Bai Qinglian looked at Bai Wanqing, then chuckled softly, "Father, my life is ruined."

"It's one thing for my daughter to become a concubine, but that Master Huang is impotent. If my daughter marries him, she'll never be able to turn her life around. Who's to blame? Father, who do you think is to blame?"

Bai Chenming and Chen Shi suddenly looked at Bai Qinglian. What had they just heard?
It turned out that Master Huang was impotent.
