Chapter 32 Why does Sixth Brother scare me?
"They are all heartless people," Bai Yu'an, who had been standing silently behind Bai Yunfeng, said, "They are just ungrateful wolves who can never be tamed."
"Yu'an, stop talking nonsense!" Bai Yunfeng glared at Bai Yu'an in a warning tone, then said to Bai Qing'an, "The third brother... has been out all the time and probably won't be back until the New Year. The sixth brother should be in his yard, why don't you go and check?"
"Forget it, the New Year is coming soon. See you after the New Year." Bai Qing'an said hesitantly, "Father, since mother is fine, son..."
The smile on Bai Yunfeng's face faded a little.
The fourth and fifth brothers immediately said reluctantly, "Brother, are you going back so soon? Why don't you have lunch at home before leaving?"
"Father, there are less than three months left until the Spring Examination, my son..." Bai Qing'an knew in his heart that he hadn't come back for several months. Now that Wei Ranzhu had just given birth, he was back and had to leave again, but...
"Dad understands. You can go without worry." Bai Yunfeng took a deep breath, "Go in and take a look at your mother and your brothers and sisters before you leave."
"Okay!" Bai Qing'an went into the house immediately.
In an instant, everyone who was just overjoyed became lost, especially Bai Shi'an and Bai Ruian, whose eyes were red.
Li Suining could see that his elder brother didn't want to leave either, but it seemed that the Spring Examination was very important.
After seeing Wei Ranzhu, Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu, Bai Qing'an left quickly. Everyone sent him to the gate and watched him ride away quickly on horseback.
"Okay, you guys haven't slept all night, so go back to sleep." Bai Yunfeng handed Li Suining to Bai Shi'an. Obviously he still had to continue working.
Bai Yu'an also left on his own.
There were only three little guys left, walking back slowly together.
"Fourth brother, fifth brother," Li Suining said suddenly, "I seemed to see sixth brother last night."
"Really?" Bai Shi'an was slightly surprised. "When? Fifth brother, did you see it?"
Bai Ruian shook his head.
Li Suining continued to explain, "When Grandpa Wen went in to rescue my mother and my younger siblings, a little brother came and helped me. But when I wanted to find him later, I found that he was gone."
Bai Shian nodded in understanding, then asked worriedly, "Are you... scared?"
"What scared you?" Li Suining was very confused. "You mean... Sixth Brother? How could Sixth Brother scare me?"
"Ah?" Bai Shi'an reacted. It was too dark, and Li Suining probably didn't see anything. "Nothing. Fourth brother meant that the sudden appearance of the sixth brother scared my sister."
Li Suining shook his head. "No, Sixth Brother didn't say anything. He left secretly before I had the chance to thank him."
Bai Shi'an's expression changed slightly, and he tugged at Bai Ruian's clothes.
"Sister, Sixth Brother is different from us..." Bai Ruian sighed, "And Third Brother, in fact, we don't even see these two people once a year. Maybe in their eyes, this place is never their home."
Li Suining was confused. "Fifth brother, why isn't this the home of Sixth and Third Brothers?"
"Sister, actually," Bai Shi'an squatted in front of the little girl and tried to explain, "My third brother and sixth brother are just like you. They don't have the last name Bai."
Li Suining was slightly surprised. She stood more obediently, but her little hands at her side unconsciously tugged at her clothes.
It seems that the third brother and the sixth brother are children picked up by their father, just like her.
As expected, Bai Shian continued, "Third brother is the child of Daddy's subordinates. He once went to the battlefield with Daddy, and later..."
A trace of sadness was evident on his face. "Then something happened, and Third Brother came back. But he only stayed at home for a dozen days before leaving again. Now, he might not come back for several years."
Li Suining nodded. For some reason, she felt a little sad.
"As for my sixth brother, he was picked up by Daddy on the battlefield," Bai Shi'an said with a smile, "When he first came, he was even younger than you. He almost never spoke and didn't hang out with the others. But Mom and Dad would occasionally visit him in his yard, especially Mom, who always loved him dearly."
"Dad and Mom are both very good and kind people." Li Suining said softly, "My brothers are the same."
She could actually understand her third and sixth brothers a little bit. The two brothers probably felt that they were causing trouble for the general's mansion.
The same goes for her, so she has to be more well-behaved and obedient, and do her best to help the General's Mansion.
"What are you thinking about?" Bai Shi'an looked at the little girl with a worried look on her face and couldn't help but pinch her little fat. "Don't take your fifth brother's words to heart. Sister, remember, even if your surname is not Bai, this is your home, and it will always be."
Bai Ruian laughed innocently twice, "Yes, Fifth Brother just said the wrong thing. No matter what Third Brother and Sixth Brother think, in our eyes, they will always be people from the General's Mansion."
Li Suining looked at her two brothers and grinned, but deep down in her heart, she felt a little uneasy for some reason.
After returning home, she quickly lay down, but she couldn't sleep. Her mind kept recalling what happened during the day.
She suddenly missed Li Tianfu.
If her father had not saved General Bai, she would not have entered the general's mansion, nor would she have such good parents.
And what about her third and sixth brothers? What can she do for them?
Especially Sixth Brother, he clearly came last night, he should have been celebrating with everyone that Mother and his brothers and sisters had escaped death...
After tossing and turning for a long time, Li Suining finally fell asleep, but she had a dream. She dreamed that things were wrong. The person who saved Bai Yunfeng was not Li Tianfu, so the general's mansion wanted to send her back.
She woke up in fright, sat up, and tears fell unconsciously.
——
At the same time, after Qian was exposed in the street that day, she had no hope and could only return to Li Tianfu's hometown with Li Changan in disgrace.
But she didn't expect that after returning, she would learn shocking news.
It turned out that Li Suining was not Li Tianfu's biological daughter, but was picked up by Li Tianfu when her mother was pregnant with her.
Moreover, the woman gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, but the boy died later.
The most important thing is that in the past two years, people from the imperial city have been going back to look for them, and they left tokens for the Li family to pass on.
Qian got the token and prepared to return to the imperial city. The child who died that year could be the little bitch Li Suining. Then, her Chang'an... was the child of that wealthy family.
The more Qian thought about it, the more excited she became. As expected, her Chang'an was destined to become a big shot, and no one could stop him.
