Chapter 353: A Hoax
"Where did you go just now?" Seeing Bai Yu coming in from outside, Grandpa saw her at a glance and hurriedly asked with concern. He was afraid that his granddaughter, who had not returned to the village for too long, would not be able to return if she left home, so he was looking for her everywhere.
Even though Lu'er had been telling him just now that Bai Yu was just blowing the wind outside, the old man was still muttering, worried that she had been abducted and run away, and then worried that she didn't know the way and couldn't come back.
"You don't know the elm girl, the elm girl doesn't know the road very well, she always gets lost when she is a child, every time I find her, she cries and cries, holding my leg and not letting go," the grandfather looked at Bai Yu and sat down next to him, as if he suddenly remembered the old things from a long time ago, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't finish the story.
As he spoke, Grandpa's voice slowly weakened, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep leaning on the chair, which he usually likes to shake to sleep, and now he is so happy to feel it, he almost said a lot of things that he can't say on weekdays, and now he is very tired.
With the joint efforts of Yang Yanxi and Lu'er, Grandpa lay down smoothly back into the bedroom, the bedroom was very simple, there was almost no superfluous decoration, only a bed, which was covered with a somewhat old mat, and there was a sunflower fan in the corner of the bed that had been fanned to some tatters.
After placing his grandfather, Yang Yanxi carefully covered the door, came out of the inside, and Lu'er also came out, Bai Yu waited for the two of them outside early, and when he saw them come out, he made a gesture of silence.
A few people walked outside with very small movements, as far away from the bedroom as possible, so as not to disturb the sleeping old man.
"Grandpa, my mother said let me come over to you to get some grain and oil, and you can decorate it for me," not long after they sat down again, a very loud boy outside broke in without knocking on the door, and he still had a cigarette in his mouth, looking like he was flowing and angry, and he was not serious at all.
The kid probably didn't expect that there would be so many people in the old man's house, and he was completely frozen in place for a while, and after seeing clearly that there were Bai Yu among those people, he just spat contemptuously.
"Yo, isn't this Cousin Baiyu? Aren't you thriving in the county? How did you think of coming back to this dilapidated mountain village to take a look? What, want to come back and show off your wealth? Bai Song was holding an empty oil drum in his hand, shaking it there without any seriousness, and teased Bai Yu, who was sitting inside.
There was a sourness from the inside out in his tone, that is, the kind of situation that said that grapes were sour when he couldn't eat grapes, and his white eyes almost didn't fly to the sky.
It's not just him, their family, Bai Yu's uncle, and aunt are all like this, anyway, they can't see Bai Yu doing well, and they want to make fun of her and get a benefit from her.
"Please be quiet, Grandpa Bai fell asleep just now, and your voice is so loud, it will wake him up." Yang Yanxi got up expressionlessly, and walked towards Bai Song, who was standing at the door, he was already tall, and standing in front of Bai Song, he was even taller, so who was more imposing, in fact, it was already clear at a glance.
Although Bai Song was unforgiving in his mouth, in the face of Yang Yanxi, who was more intimidating than him in size and figure, he was also unconsciously coaxed, and immediately left, and before running, he also put a few cruel words.
"You wait, I'll tell my mother when I go back, saying that you guys are coming together to bully me, and see how my mother cleans you up tomorrow!" Because Bai Song was angry, he also dropped the oil drum, and the sound of the oil drum hitting the ground was very loud, and it was so noisy for a while that Bai Yu only felt that his ears hurt.
He is really a person who will sue, he has been like this since he was a child, and even when he grows up, he can't change his, relying on someone like him to inherit, what benefits can the Bai family get in the future? I'm afraid I won't have to rush to the street to eat the northwest wind in the end. Bai Yu shook his head, not knowing how to feel.
"Speaking of which, just now Aunt Chen said that Bai Song's kid asked his grandfather for a sum of money, saying that he wanted to pay money to the ruffian Li, what hurt his life, roots, and son, now looking at his carefree and carefree appearance, it doesn't look like he got into trouble? The ruffian Li is a gangster, how could he let him go so easily? If it's really hurt," Bai Yu didn't continue.
In fact, it wasn't just Bai Yu who felt suspicious, even Yang Yanxi, who had been observing Bai Song, was also suspicious at this time, the kid just now seemed to be in good limbs, and there was no place to hurt at all, if he really got into trouble with the ruffians, and hurt people's lives, roots, and children, I am afraid that even if he loses more money to go out, he will have to leave a pair of hands in the end.
The ins and outs of the matter were quickly recovered, Bai Yu slapped his thigh and stood up from his seat angrily, only to say that Grandpa Bai was cheated of money by their family and was kept in the dark!
"It's really unreasonable, grandpa has saved so much money as a langzhong, and he was deceived by this gang of white-eyed wolves, there is really no royal law, I am going to go to them now to ask for an explanation!!" Bai Yu was so emotional for a while that he almost slammed the door and went out to ask Bai Song's family for an explanation.
Yang Yanxi stopped her in time, took her into his arms, and grabbed her tightly, because of the strong poor body shape, no matter how much she messed around, in his eyes, it was just a child playing a prank, or joking, and it couldn't form a deterrent effect at all.
She fluttered her arms for a long time and still couldn't struggle, and in the end, she gave up too, stayed in his arms obediently, and didn't speak, just sulking there with her cheeks puffed out, just looking bad.
"Okay, okay, it's so late, let's talk about it tomorrow, okay? This is not the county seat, it's so late, everyone in the village is sleeping, even if your uncle's family doesn't rest, others have to rest, but you can't disturb others," Yang Yanxi said with a straight face, and for a while she couldn't refute it, so she could only pout like a goldfish.
When he saw that she had finally relented, he gently patted her on the back as if coaxing a child, and gently hugged her again, and then reluctantly let go of his embrace.
"Sir, madam, the room has been cleaned up, you can go in and rest." At this time, Lu'er, who had finished cleaning up, came out of the room where Bai Yu had slept in this house before, holding a few rags in his hand, and he should have cleaned it up very neatly just now.
