Old Master Bai sighed; how could he bear to part with it!
"My dear, something bad is going to happen to the Bai family soon. It's dangerous for you to stay here. He didn't ask you to come back; he has no good intentions! Listen to me!"
Although the news has only just begun and the common people have no idea, these old folks know it's coming soon! And there's already some commotion; it won't quiet down anytime soon.
Bai Yajing had discussed this matter with her maternal grandparents before, and she knew what her grandfather was talking about.
"Grandpa, didn't you say you were leaving? Why haven't you actually left?"
Also, as long as I don't agree, it's impossible for him to make me and his daughter switch household registration status.
Grandpa Village Chief won't agree, and neither will the Brigade Leader. Without the consent of the three most important people in our lives, one report against them would render all our efforts futile.
Just tell everyone that I'm a junior member of a distant relative's family in the countryside, seeking refuge with them.
Grandpa Bai's face was full of worry and confusion.
"Nannan, why do you insist on staying? I had already boarded the ship, but Bai Yazhu secretly got off, and she and..."
Sigh! She's gotten involved with your fiancé. I originally planned to forcibly take her away, but after a while, when you come of age, Qin Xuanyi will have almost forgotten about her, and you two can live a good life together.
Unfortunately, I was too optimistic. They wanted both! Not only did they want to change the engagement, but they also wanted to change your status! Sigh!
Bai Yajing was also a little surprised. She had thought that the Qin family boy's thoughts might change, but she didn't expect that the two of them would actually get involved together. Sure enough, like father, like son, and like son of a mouse, the child is always looking to steal other people's things!
"Grandpa, I won't lie to you, I came here this time because I'm afraid the Bai family's things will fall into other people's hands. I want to take everything with me and not let others benefit from it."
And also…
She glanced at Grandpa Bai, worried he might be angry. But if she didn't say it, Grandpa would probably be even angrier if she did it later...
After thinking about it, I said, "I want to avenge my mother and get justice! She was a woman of integrity who made so many contributions to the country, but she died such a tragic death. It's just not worth it!"
Another thing is the annulment of the engagement with the Qin family. I wrote a letter to Qin Xuanyi a couple of years ago, but he didn't reply to me at that time, so I knew that his mind had changed.
Now that they're together, I'm even more determined to call off this engagement. A man's infidelity is like a rotten cucumber—inedible, disgusting! He'd rather just rot in the ground!
Grandpa Bai looked at her seriously, wanting to confirm whether she really thought that way. After all, not to mention that Qin Xuanyi was indeed confused about his personal feelings, just look at him as a person.
He was handsome and talented, with impressive looks and good skills, making him a suitable son-in-law. This was why, even after learning about his relationship with Bai Yazhu, he still wanted to leave him to his granddaughter...
As for the child's talk of avenging her mother... sigh! He truly owes them both so much. He's old now, he can't worry about that anymore, let her do as she pleases.
"How about we give Grandpa some face, spare his life, and then you can do whatever you want with him?"
"Also, we have quite a lot of stuff. Most of the shops and factories have been sold, but some are still stuck with us. Your uncle and aunt's family can't take much with them by boat; the bulk of it is still there."
How are you going to take them with you? Besides, it's too risky. Those are inanimate objects; you can't take them with you when you die. There's no need to risk your life for them.
Remember this: nothing is more important than your life. If you stay alive, you'll have endless possibilities in the future! Holding onto things doesn't guarantee you'll stay safe; others might covet them, and you could lose your life at any moment!
Sigh, she's still just a child. She doesn't understand that if she takes those things, it's like a child carrying a gold brick and parading it around in the street. How could those wolves and tigers not be envious? How could they not try to take advantage of her?
Therefore, he didn't dare to send her too much dowry, because it would be too conspicuous!
Bai Yajing knew what he was worried about, but she was really touched. Her grandfather was letting her take revenge, as long as he left Bai Lao Er alive. She had no problem with that!
Sometimes living is more painful and unbearable than dying!
As for whether I can take it with me... hehe, maybe not before, but now...
She picked up a Hero fountain pen from the desk. "Grandpa, look."
After saying that, he demonstrated the art of disappearing into thin air to Old Master Bai.
