Chapter 51: Things Are Not People (4)
Before going home, Bai Mo was already mentally prepared, but he was still stunned by the cold in front of the door.
In a huge house, there is only Grandma Su alone.
The flowers in the garden are blooming just right, but the branches have not been pruned for a long time, and they have long lost their delicate appearance in memory, and only a few towering trees have grown wildly, taller and denser.
"Grandma, are you the only one here?" Bai Mo clearly remembered that in addition to the driver, there were three or four workers at home, but now there was no one.
"yes." Grandma Su sighed deeply, got up and said, "You wait, I'll pour you a cup of tea." ”
"I'll do it myself." She replied subconsciously, but suddenly remembered that she was no longer Bai Mo, so she stopped.
Grandma Su got up with a smile, dragged her heavy legs to the kitchen, and muttered, "How do you know where the things are when you come for the first time?" ”
Bai Mo looked at everything that was familiar and unfamiliar in front of him.
There used to be an oil painting of three generations on the fireplace, but now it is covered with a white cloth.
On the Bogu shelf there is my grandfather's favorite antique vase, which is now gone.
A gust of wind blew and the door rattled.
"Kid, come and play when you have time. Anyway, I'm the only one here. Grandma Su handed her the tea and opened the conversation again.
From her grandfather to her mother to Bai Mo, she said a lot.
Bai Mo has been listening, and it is heartbreaking and sad to hear.
If it weren't for Grandma Su's eyes, she might never have known that the lives of the three generations of the Bai family were so ridiculous.
"Now that the Bai family is dead, I only have a lonely old woman, I know that they will sell this house just waiting for me to die!" Grandma Su said, wiping her tears.
"Grandma," Bai Mo was sad for a while, and persuaded her, "How dangerous it is for you to live in this place alone, and you don't have any companions, and it's far away from the city, it's not convenient to buy anything, to put it mildly, in case you have a headache and brain fever, you have to walk a few kilometers to go to the toilet and hospital, so it's better to move away!" ”
That's what they thought they would fire everybody! Just want me to move out quickly! Grandma Su said with tears in her eyes.
"Then you can go." Bai Mo never knew that Grandma Su, who was easy to discuss everything, was such a stubborn person.
"Nope! I can't get what they want! This is the ancestral property of the Bai family, how can it be sold! Grandma Su shook her head, "Besides, if I also leave, if they want to come back, they have nowhere to go!" ”
Bai Mo burst into tears.
That night, Grandma Su made bamboo shoot soup again, Bai Mo drank it all, Grandma Su was very happy and invited her to go again when she was free.
When she went out, Bai Mo left her phone number with Grandma Su and asked her to call her if she had something to do.
The house was far from the city and lonely, and now everyone had evacuated, and even the security system at the entrance was deactivated. Fortunately, the valuable things at home have been taken away, and there are traces of people climbing on the back wall, it should be a thief in the house, and there is nothing to see, but I am afraid that I am crying and leaving.
Most of the things in the house were messy, only the house of the three grandparents was quite clean, according to Bai Mo's guess, it was probably cleaned up by Grandma Su later.
It's not surprising that her stuff is still there.
She has almost no gold and silver jewelry, never buys products such as fund stocks, and most of them are books, and all her income is in her personal account.
Living alone in New York for a long time, she is used to putting cash on the inside of the computer bag, the laptop has disappeared, fortunately the computer bag is still there, she found the cash and phone number to Su Apo, she only took the business card.
Bai Mo knew in her heart that once she became Xiao Ningning, she should let go of everything she had before, but her father's turn of face ruthlessly stabbed her fiercely.
Even if he didn't like the Bai family's mansion, it shouldn't be like this, after all, he married his mother there, and Bai Mo was born and raised there. Even if people go to tea and cool, he will not be so indulgent to this old place.
