"Pack everything up."
"I'm here to deliver a gift, not to poison anyone, so what are you afraid of?"
"If I'm not taking it, then I won't go. I'll just wait until it gets dark!"
Guan Yuxi stood on the tractor, gesturing with her hands to direct everyone to stuff all the local specialties they had brought into their pockets.
Although the leader agreed to the meeting, it was inconvenient for the tractor to drive in.
Assistant Lin was very upset.
Although those fruits, vegetables and dried goods looked pretty good, how could the leader lack such things?
Besides, with two huge carts full of food, how long will it take to finish eating?
However, he didn't dare to say no, otherwise people would have to wait until dark to take him back to feed him, you know.
Fortunately, Leng Lie and Fang Yuan were very helpful.
With the guards also eagerly coming forward to help, the things were quickly packed up.
They each carried a load, and even Guan Yuxi prepared one for herself.
However, Leng Lie, who loved his wife dearly, couldn't possibly let her jump.
Without saying a word, he placed the carrying pole on Assistant Lin's shoulder.
Assistant Lin: "......"
“We’re tall and strong, so we have to do more physical work. You can’t really let a little girl do it, can you?”
Leng Lie looked at him with disdain.
Assistant Lin was even more frustrated. What kind of adjectives were these? If you can't speak properly, just shut up.
What does it mean to be tall and strong?
But if he retorted, wouldn't it make him seem petty since the other person included him in the argument?
"Sorry, my brother Lie is just used to being informal."
"I'm a rough man, I don't have many fuss oversights."
Leng Lie pulled Guan Yuxi over, easily picked up the load, and left.
"Brother Lin, do you need our help?"
The guards crowded around and asked.
Looking at the swaying carrying pole ahead, Assistant Lin was suddenly filled with competitive spirit and gritted his teeth to pick it up. "No need!"
Guan Yuxi turned around and gave him an apologetic smile.
When packing, Leng Lie didn't intend for her to do anything, so he packed almost all the items.
Leng Lie picked it without any problem.
But you could tell from Fang Yuan's clenched teeth how heavy this thing was.
Not to mention Assistant Lin, who has hardly ever done physical labor.
Assistant Lin smiled at her with great courtesy.
Why should he care about a young girl?
However, the load became heavier and heavier, and he felt that the skin on his shoulders was about to be rubbed raw.
Fang Yuan next to him wasn't having an easy time either; he was not only grimacing from picking through the food, but also had to stop and rest from time to time.
On the contrary, Leng Lie, who was ahead of them, walked with ease and freedom.
Mr. Bai personally greeted people at the entrance of the courtyard.
Upon seeing Guan Yuxi, he joked, "What? Did you bring all your belongings to give to me?"
I didn't return the favor.
Guan Yuxi raised an eyebrow, saying meaningfully, "Didn't you already pay it back, sir?"
By simply agreeing to see her, one has already reciprocated her kindness.
Now that those watching her know she's gotten involved with Old Bai, they probably won't dare to do those underhanded things anymore.
Old Bai was taken aback, thinking she was referring to the house.
He burst into laughter, "You're just like your grandfather; you're the kind of person who won't suffer even the slightest loss."
Don't worry, your house won't be missing!
Guan Yuxi: "......"
She wanted to say that she really wasn't there to ask for the house, but would he believe her?
He led the three of them to sit down in the courtyard.
Old Bai then asked, "Didn't you say it would be a few more years before you came to Kyoto?"
It's been less than a year since then.
And why did they approach him in such a high-profile manner?
Old Bai glanced at Assistant Lin, who then turned and left.
Guan Yuxi stopped him, "There's no need to investigate, it's too much trouble. Since I've come to you for help, I certainly wouldn't dare to hide anything from you..."
She said only the most important things she could.
Finally, he added, "Even if it's because of my grandfather, he has long since passed away."
I don't think he has any further value to me.
Now, the only two things I can think of are: one is how Brother Lie and I helped Grandpa Dai set up a trap to hunt down the antique dealers.
Secondly, some people have realized that Secretary Song Jingqi is helping us behind the scenes and want to deal with him, or his patron.
As for the key to it, I don't think I understand it, and I can't figure it out.
But I believe you, Grandpa Bai, will surely figure it out, won't you?"
She looked at Old Master Bai with sincere and resolute eyes.
She knew something was wrong the moment Secretary Song approached them and hinted that they should visit relatives and friends.
However, neither she nor Leng Lie held any official position or had any wealth, so what did they have to fear?
In their eyes, they were nothing more than two ants that could be wiped out without lifting a finger.
Secretary Song's anxious and guilty expression made her realize that he had only come to them out of desperation.
However, Secretary Song did help her bury Grandpa Guan in the Martyrs' Cemetery, so that he could receive what he deserved and be remembered forever.
She couldn't help but reciprocate.
Old Master Bai held his teacup, frowned, and asked, "Song Jingqi?"
A hint of worry appeared on Assistant Lin's face as she leaned close to his ear and whispered a few words.
Old Master Bai's expression was rather unpleasant.
Guan Yuxi took out a letter at the right moment and gently pushed it over.
"Grandpa Bai, why don't you take a look at this first?"
Assistant Lin quickly pushed the letter to Guan Yuxi, saying, "Old Bai can't help, you should go back!"
Guan Yuxi didn't look at him, but stared straight at Old Bai.
"This is not for you, I just wanted you to pass it on."
My grandfather never uttered a word of regret in his entire life, but I know he did.
