Ge Meilin thought for a moment and nodded. "I remember, you were attending a girls' high school there. To save you from having to commute long distances to and from school every day, your parents bought you a small courtyard there. You lived there throughout your high school years."
Bai Qingxia nodded. "That's the small courtyard. I let Bai Cuicui live there. Firstly, it gave her a place to stay, and secondly, the house needed cleaning and maintenance. I gave her ten yuan a month as a subsidy. Later, when Song Hao and I fell on hard times, she probably thought I'd never come back, so she started to make advances on the house. How shameless of her! She saw me just now, probably because she was afraid I'd ask her for the house."
Ge Meilin was furious. "I gave her a place to stay, but she still caused trouble. Why didn't you tell me earlier? Now that we're back, it won't be difficult to help you get the house back."
Bai Qingxia shook her head. "There's no rush. Xiaoyun said it's not the right time yet. When the time is right, we'll take back not only the house in Baihua Lane, but also the houses on Guangfeng Road and Pingyang Road."
Bai Qingxia was afraid that Ge Meilin would feel uncomfortable knowing that her family had left her so many houses, so she quickly said, "Now that you're back, the houses on Guangfeng Road and Pingyang Road will be given to Ruan Ruan and Shu Ting."
Ge Meilin glanced at her, "What nonsense are you talking about? These are given to you by your parents. What are you going to give them to Ruanruan and Shuting? Do we need a house?" Then she took Bai Qingxia's hand and said seriously, "Qingxia, our parents did leave you a lot of things, but compared to what they gave to me and Qingfeng, these are nothing. You can keep them for yourself and give them to Xiaoyun and Ziyi in the future. Now that you have Tangyu, you won't have enough to share."
Bai Qingxia knew that Ge Meilin was speaking the truth. She really didn't care about these properties and it was impossible for her to covet her sister-in-law's things.
Even if Ge Meilin doesn't miss her, someone else will.
Bai Cuicui originally came to the department store to buy shoes, but when she met Bai Qingxia, she recognized her at a glance. Bai Qingxia was exactly the same as before, without any change.
She was so scared that she turned around and ran all the way back to her home in Baihua Lane, her heart still pounding.
Sun Daniu was repairing a stool in the yard. Seeing Bai Cuicui looking like she had seen a ghost, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you? Did you see a ghost?"
Bai Cuicui would rather she had seen a ghost today.
But she knew in her heart that it wasn't a ghost. How could a ghost with such a rosy complexion? Moreover, she recognized the woman with Bai Qingxia. Wasn't that the Bai family's eldest wife, Ge Meilin? Didn't she go to Gangcheng with the Bai family? Why did she come back?
"Daniu, what should I do? Bai Qingxia is back. I just saw her in the department store."
Sun Daniu frowned and dropped the hammer in his hand. "Are you sure?"
Bai Cuicui nodded, "How could I be wrong? Not only Bai Qingxia, I also saw Ge Meilin, Bai Qingxia's sister-in-law, the one who went to Gangcheng with the Bai family in her early years."
Sun Daniu frowned and said nothing.
Bai Cuicui grabbed Sun Daniu's arm and said, "Daniu, what should we do if she comes to ask us for the house? Where will we live in the future? And, and those things, we-"
Sun Daniu glared at Bai Cuicui. "What? Did we take anything from them? Did she entrust anything to you before? Stop talking nonsense and acting crazy."
Bai Cuicui understood and nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, she didn't entrust me with anything. If those things are gone, it has nothing to do with us. Then what about this house? What about the house? Should we really return it to her?"
She really couldn't bear to give it up. She had lived in this house for more than ten years. In her heart, this house had long belonged to her. Asking her to return the house now was like asking for her life. What was the difference?
