Chapter 76 The truth of that year
Uncle Bai, who was walking beside Bai Quanfu, sighed and said, "Brother, you must be nicer to your sister-in-law and nephews and nieces in the future. They have suffered a lot over the years."
"I know." He responded, but in his heart he was thinking that there must be a future.
After returning home, the three brothers sat together in silence. Bai Jing distributed the things she brought back to her younger brothers and sisters, and asked about their days at home. Then she sent them out to play in the yard.
"Dad, isn't he really the one who killed grandma?" This was the first time Bai Jing spoke to Bai Quanfu after she came back.
Bai Quanfu smoked his pipe and looked up at his daughter.
"Your grandmother died of illness. I can testify to that. As for whether it has anything to do with him, it certainly has some."
"For example?"
"He was unwilling to spend money to treat your grandmother. Does this count?"
Bai Jing was silent because she knew what it meant to be unwilling to take the money.
I guess after escaping from home, the things he had on him were very sensitive and he didn't dare to take them out.
"Have you ever resented him? Hated him?"
"It's meaningless. He was truly grateful for our upbringing before he married Zhang Zixue. Without them, we, as children at the time, would not have survived."
Also, because he raised his two younger brothers during those years, he had to repay this favor.
Bai Jing said nothing more.
The three brothers are all contradictory people, but also grateful people.
well.
"Will you still care about them in the future?" This matter is very important. If he can't do it, she feels that her mother will not forgive him.
Bai Quanfu sighed, "My ability is limited. I can't control it, and I can't afford to control it."
Bai Jing understood.
She was naturally happy in her heart, because she knew that her father was a good father, but he was also cold-hearted.
Over the years, he watched his family's life deteriorate day by day, but he still did nothing.
As long as no one died, he would pretend not to see it.
It's really selfish. Knowing his own situation, why did he still want to get married?
Isn't this harming others?
Why have children?
Isn't this harming your own child?
I can't figure it out.
I thought there would be a bloody storm, but unexpectedly it was resolved so peacefully.
Just when everyone was silent, Bai Quanfu threw another bomb.
"When Mom passed away, she told me the name of a place. When you have time, come with me to see it, my dear brothers."
"Where?" Bai's second uncle.
"Where?" Uncle Bai.
Bai Quanfu took two puffs of his pipe and spat out an address, "City C, Lijiang Town, Zhou Shanlin's ancestral grave."
"What is this place?" The two brothers were confused. City C was very far away from them. How could they be connected with a place thousands of miles away?
Uncle Bai San had more contacts with outsiders and knew more than Uncle Bai Er, so he asked, "But is it our family's ancestral land?"
Bai Quanfu nodded. "Well, I can't remember it since I was too young, but before my mother died, she told me to remember the name of this place and to visit it if I had the chance."
He had no idea what he was going to do specifically.
After hearing this, Bai Jing contacted Xiao Jin in her heart, "Xiao Jin, help me find out what this place has to do with my family."
Xiao Jin was very capable and quickly investigated the matter. [Host, that is your Bai family's ancestral land, where the Bai family's ancestral property is hidden. However, it is now deserted and the Bai family has long been razed to the ground. This system advises you not to act rashly now, as someone is still watching the Bai family.]
It’s different if you spend money, Xiao Jin gave a very detailed explanation.
"So, there are treasures passed down from our Bai family's ancestors. From the time the Bai family was exterminated until now, there are still people eyeing the Bai family's things, right?" Bai Jing was somewhat excited.
After all, these things did not exist in her previous life, and she was not aware of these things.
I don’t know whether the treasure of her Bai family was found in her previous life, and who found it.
[That's right, host. Please be careful. There are many people watching these things.]
【For example, your second grandfather. 】
When Bai Jing heard this, she had every reason to believe that her grandmother might have been killed by old man Bai.
"Xiao Jin, was my grandma killed by him?" Bai Jing asked.
[Yes and no.] Xiao Jin flipped through the things he had found and began to explain to Bai Jing.
He used his three children to interrogate his sister-in-law, but she denied it, saying how could a woman like her know the family secrets? Whether Bai Qingwen believed it or not is unknown, but from then on, he no longer cared about your grandmother's life or death, and let her endure her illness on her own.
"My father said he raised them. Is that true?" Bai Jing didn't believe her father's memory.
[It's half true, half false, but it was because of him that the three children were raised. This is an indisputable fact. Although your father joined the army at the age of fifteen, he didn't mistreat your second and third uncles. He didn't let them starve to death, so that's also his contribution.]
Xiao Jin explained to Bai Jing in cold words.
Bai Jing naturally heard the meaning that Xiao Jin did not say.
"He only wanted to see if my father and second uncle knew about the Bai family's treasure by supporting them. When he used his kindness to control my father, he believed that my father and his two brothers didn't know about it. Otherwise, my father and his brothers wouldn't be alive today."
But he didn't expect that her foolish and filial father actually knew it. Well, it can't be said that he knew it, but he listened to his grandmother and didn't tell anyone the address.
After learning the truth, Bai Jing became nervous. Second aunt, third aunt, second uncle and third uncle all knew about it now. What if Bai Qingwen found out?
So, let’s leave Baijia Village as soon as possible.
Bai Jing looked at the few people in deep thought and said, "These are grandma's last words. It's best to keep them secret. We should always be on guard against others. What do you think, Uncle Two and Uncle Three?"
Bai Jing's words still carry some weight. As soon as she opens her mouth, her second uncle and third uncle's families naturally listen.
"That's right, let's listen to Xiaojing. This matter must not be told to anyone else. The same goes for you, big brother. Just like before, you can't tell anyone."
Bai Quanfu nodded and said, "I know, but I won't tell anyone."
He has been hiding it for so many years, and everyone still trusts him on this point.
Since the favor is still good, then what happens next has nothing to do with them.
"Brother, we bought a house in town. Do you want to live with us?" Uncle Bai took out a certificate, which was the property certificate given to him by Bai Jing.
Bai Quanfu took a look and envy flashed in his eyes, but he quickly hid it.
"No, your sister-in-law and the children are still in the village, and I can't bear to leave them alone." Bai Quanfu glanced at Bai Jing and then looked at his children playing outside.
Bai Jing opened her mouth but still didn't say that she also had a house.
She also wanted to see her father's determination, otherwise there would be endless troubles. She didn't want to spend the rest of her life supporting someone else's family in a muddle.
