Bai Shuyu is very good at playing hypocrisy, and he also said hypocritically: "Uncle, don't blame for greetings for a long time."

"Hey, what did you say?" Bai Yanzhao said generously, "It's all my own family. Come, come, I've seen your seventh grandfather."

Bai Haichao is the seventh in their generation.

Bai Shuyu walked up to Bai Haichao, saluted and said, "Grandson Shuyu, I've seen Seventh Grandpa."

Bai Haichao didn't have any expression on his face, waved his hand, and said, "Sit down."

Sitting down to watch tea, the family chatted happily.

Bai Shuyu asked, "Seventh Grandfather, Uncle, and Aunt are all right?"

Bai Yanzhao replied, "Your aunt and I are very tough, your seventh grandfather is old, and occasionally has a minor illness, but it doesn't matter. Shuyu, why did you come to Chuzhou this time?"

Bai Shuyu replied: "My nephew is going to Yangzhou, passing through Chuzhou, and I came to visit."

"Yes, you have to recognize the door."

was chatting "happily", Bai Haichao suddenly coughed, and the lobby was quiet, and they all looked at the old man. The old man opened his slightly closed eyes, and his eyes were very serious.

"Alright," came the old man's majestic voice, "don't pretend to be, what family? Do you think you're a family? I hung at the door for half an hour, and I didn't even treat myself as a guest, and I returned my family."

This sentence embarrassed the other three people in the room, and everyone simply stopped talking.

The old man looked at Bai Shuyu and asked, "Your father, your grandfather, when they were alive, they would say whatever they had to us as collaterals, and they would never be coy. How? The Bai family was not besieged back then, but they were just frightened, and their backbone was broken?"

Bai Shuyu didn't answer, and the smile on his face did not decrease.

"Hmph," the old man said indignantly, "Bai Ruoyun made people burn the golden-domed pagoda and abolish their martial arts, and only one of the children had a daughter. Your eldest brother, Bai Boju, has not made a name for himself in the rivers and lakes. Your second brother is an outsider. Your Bai Shuyu is the most famous, and at the age of fifteen or sixteen, he was famous in Fireworks Willow Lane. Hehe, Bai family, it's really good."

Bai Shuyu slowly stood up and said with a smile, "Since Seventh Grandpa doesn't like to beat around the bush, then, Shuyu has something to say."

Bai Haichao picked up the teacup and drank tea, not looking at Bai Shuyu.

Bai Shuyu opened the folding fan with a "snap", fanned the wind in makeup, and said calmly, "I won't talk about what happened back then. The major subordinate departments are trying their best to dissociate themselves from Luoyang, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, we understand this truth. Each family has a big business, and it is not worth it to follow the master to the soup, but ...... Seventh Grandfather, your Chuzhou Bai family, is it too much?"

Bai Haichao sneered: "What's wrong?"

"The Bai family's various dark piles on the rivers and lakes have been wiped out in a few years. The dark pile in Chuzhou disappeared the fastest, and the news of Chuzhou, Fengyang, Huai'an, and Yangzhou could not be received in less than half a month. Who betrayed these secret piles?"

The smile on Bai Shuyu's face had disappeared, replaced by a murderous aura. Originally, Bai Shuyu didn't think about Xingshi to ask for guilt, he just wanted to rub some friendship with the same clan and stay for a few days. Who knew that he was hung at the door for half an hour, and before he could say a few words of greeting when he entered the house, he was exposed. Rao is Bai Shuyu, no matter how good his temper is, he can't hold it back.

When Bai Yanzhao's father and son heard Bai Shuyu's words, the two of them pinched a cold sweat. The Bai family in Chuzhou has long since withdrawn from the rivers and lakes, and there are only about 20 nursing homes in the family, if you really tear your face...... At that time, the Luoyang Bai family was not a good man and a woman, although their strength has been greatly reduced over the years, but it is more than enough to deal with ordinary businessmen like them.

Bai Haichao still had a sarcastic smile on his face: "What? Settle accounts after the fall?"

"When it comes to camaraderie, this can be done in the past. But...... Seventh Grandpa, you have to give me a list, Shu Yu has to know who betrayed the Bai family's secret pile!"

"Got it? The Bai family in Luoyang still has the ability to wrestle with the Jianghu people?"

"With my Bai Shuyu here, the Bai family will return to the peak of eighteen years ago just around the corner. Wrestling your wrists? What about a wrist wrestler? Back then, there were the Li family and the Shangguan family who fought against us, but now, there are no two. In the future, the Bai family will dominate the intelligence of the rivers and lakes."

"Hmph, the gentleman who lingers in the Chu Pavilion of Qinlou will have such ambitions?"

The murderous aura on Bai Shuyu's face disappeared, and the warm smile returned to his face: "Seventh Grandpa, it's almost there."

"Shine a trail."

"Baihualou is my property."

"Not enough."

"If it's not enough, you have to rely on Seventh Grandpa to make up for it."

"Hahaha!" Bai Haichao suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed. Bai Yanzhao was stunned, his father hadn't laughed in the past ten years, and now he didn't look like laughing angrily.

"Good! Good! Okay!" Bai Haichao said three good words in a row, leaning on the armrest of the chair and trying to stand up, but Bai Linju hurriedly supported him.

The old man pushed his grandson away, stood up by himself, bowed deeply to Bai Shuyu, and said loudly: "Chuzhou Bai family, only the third son is the first to look forward! From today, the Chuzhou dark pile will be restarted!"

Bai Yanzhao's father and son were even more confused, what does this mean?

Bai Shuyu hugged Bai Haichao and said, "Seventh grandfather, torment your grandson."

Bai Haichao raised his head, tears flashed in his eyes, as if the resentment that had been held back for many years had been swept away, and the old man's spine was straightened.

"Uncle Yu's grandson, tell me about Luoyang over the years."

Bai Shuyu looked outside the lobby and whispered, "Seventh grandfather, the wall has ears."

Bai Haichao patted his head and said, "I'm old, I've been absent from the rivers and lakes for a long time, and I'm negligent. Come with me...... Yan Zhao, Lin Ju, you also follow."

The three of them followed Bai Haichao and walked into the backyard. The old man took these few steps, Bai Yanzhao and his son understood that what rickets and illnesses were all pretended. Look at the old man like this, he probably won't be able to breathe for two miles. Bai Yanzhao's father and son glanced at each other, their eyes were bitter, and they said in their hearts: "It's over, the Bai family in Chuzhou will be completely inseparable from the rivers and lakes in the future."

The four of them entered the old man's room, and the old man walked to the Bogu shelf, knocked on the wind bottle a few times, and a secret door opened on the wall behind the desk.

Bai Yanzhao's father and son glanced at each other again - after so many years in this family, they didn't know that there was a dark room in the old man's room.

The darkroom was not big, and there were not many things, just a table, a chair, an oil lamp, and a few wooden boxes.

Bai Haichao sat down on the chair and said, "Let's talk here, no one knows." The old man's words are full of anger, not to mention two miles, it is estimated that he can run three miles.

Bai Linju smiled bitterly: "Grandpa, no one really knows, I don't even know that you have a dark room here."

Bai Haichao waved his hand, didn't talk about the dark room, and asked Bai Shuyu: "Shuyu, let's talk about it."

Bai Shuyu briefly talked about the Bai family in the past ten years, and then focused on the alliance with Changfeng Tower.

Bai Haichao nodded: "It's a bit of a scale, but it's still a lot worse than eighteen years ago."

Bai Shuyu said: "You can't do it overnight, you have to figure it out slowly."

"That's the truth, you just asked me for a list, Shu Yu, there is no list. Some of the hidden piles in Chuzhou, Yangzhou and other places have been pulled out, but they are all about to be exposed. The other stakes are fine."

Bai Shuyu was surprised: "Still operating?"

Bai Haichao shook his head: "It's good to be able to keep it, where do you dare to operate." Those people are also old, and they must be given a stable life, and they can no longer be used."

Bai Shuyu nodded: "That's good, doing things for the Bai family can't make people jealous."

"It's not easy to bury the stakes, and you have to take your time. Fortunately, my family has been doing business for many years, and I have a lot of spare money, so I can still operate."

"Seventh Grandfather," Bai Shuyu was a little embarrassed, "Grandson's visit this time is really not to ask the teacher to ask for guilt. I'm really going to Yangzhou...... Now that your family has lived a stable life, it is not good to set foot in the rivers and lakes again."

Bai Shuyu didn't tell a lie, and he did feel a little emotional about the separation at first. But seeing that the old man had endured for so many years, Bai Shuyu was a little unbearable. In the end, he is young, and he doesn't have that hard heart.

"Hmph," I didn't expect the old man to get angry again, "Safe? Eighteen years ago, when that incident just happened, eight of the children of my clan died in two years, and they were all young people in the clan

Talent. Avenge? I don't have that guts, I don't have that strength, and I don't even know who the murderer is. Is this called stability? Being ridden on the neck and, hum, I can't swallow this breath. Your father and your grandfather can't swallow it, and the ancestors of the Bai family can't swallow it!"

"Okay," Bai Shuyu couldn't persuade again, "Originally, there was no Chuzhou family split in the plan, but Seventh Grandpa understands the righteousness, and our plan will naturally be smoother." From today onwards, Luoyang and Chuzhou will resume secret communication, and there should be nothing to do with it on the surface."

Bai Yanzhao was a little dissatisfied, he didn't bother to pretend to be close now, and said, "Virtuous nephew, you entered our house, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are watching, this is still called nothing?"

With a "snap", the old man slapped the table and shouted, "You useless thing! You don't want to avenge your brother's revenge?!"

Bai Yanzhao plucked up the courage to say, "Dad! Think! I also want! But do we have what it takes? We finally withdrew from the rivers and lakes, and finally had a stable life. Shuang'er hasn't married yet, and Lei'er is only six years old, why should we go to the troubled waters this time?"

The old man blew his beard angrily and glared, but what the son said was the truth. The granddaughter Bai Shuang'er is nineteen years old, a big girl, but she has a brutal and willful personality and has never married. The great-grandson Bai Lei is just six years old and is not sensible yet. If this is mixed into the grievances of the Bai family in Luoyang, nothing will happen.

Bai Shuyu hurriedly played a round: "Uncle, Seventh Grandfather, you don't have to quarrel, I really have nothing to do with the Bai family in Chuzhou."

Bai Linju asked, "Why do you say that?"

Bai Shuyu smiled: "You made me wait at the gate for half an hour, and they also saw this, and the separation family treated me like this, clearly trying to clear up the relationship."

The three ancestors and grandchildren of the Bai family thought about it, it seemed that it was such a reason, and Bai Yanzhao's unintentional move could have such an effect.

Bai Yanzhao clapped his hands and said, "Seconds! Nephew, you can leave later. It's not your uncle who drove you, if you let you stay for a few days, won't it be exposed?" It's really not Bai Yanzhao who drove him away, it's the truth.

Bai Shuyu said, "Uncle, I really have to bother for a few days."

"Why?"

"It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that my Uncle Bai Yu is the best in the world, if you don't have the ability to eat here for a few days, no one will believe it."

…

Bai Shuyu lived in Chuzhou in the end, he is still a little selfish, although he is not a master who can't endure hardship, but since he was a child, he has been used to eating and drinking, and he is really a little unbearable during this period of time sleeping in the open air. Chuzhou is not as good as Luoyang, Bai Xueyan has the courage to replace all the subordinates, Bai Haichao does not have that ability, so Bai Shuyu has to be careful everywhere in the past few days.

lived in the Bai family in Chuzhou for a few days, and was stunned that he had never seen his aunt and cousin, so he made room for a small courtyard alone. Bai Haichao's ancestors and grandchildren also rarely came, and Bai Shuyu was happy and clean, just to rest and rest.

After lunch that day, Bai Shuyu was doing idle work in the backyard, and he heard a noise outside the courtyard.

"Miss, the master said, don't let us disturb the third son."

"What third son? It's just a lost dog! Staying in our house, I can't see it anymore? Get out of the way!"

"Miss! I really can't go in!"
