With Bai Yunchen's empty head, there's a high probability he'll believe it. "If this knife is used well, it could hurt your heart and your body..."
She wouldn't give Bai Lao Er any face; she'd say what needed to be said, lest the old man harbor any illusions.
Old Master Bai gave her a reproachful look.
"You little rascal! Your old man may be stupid and clumsy, but he still has some filial piety. He wouldn't do such a thing. Otherwise, I would suspect that your grandma might have switched someone else's baby at the hospital back then!"
"Oh, right, keep this. It's your mother's keepsake. Take good care of it and keep it as a memento."
He then handed her the jade pendant with the double fish design that the Qin family had returned.
Bai Yajing took it, held it in her hand and played with it. Her nose tingled with emotion. She had never met her mother, but she had heard many of her glorious deeds since she was a child.
Of course, her grandparents always talked about her achievements and her character.
As for the uncles and elders in the village...
She remembered how sometimes the uncles and elders would pull her aside and complain, saying that her mother had been the village bully and leader of the kids since she was a child, leading them to fish in the river, climb trees to steal birds' nests, and hunt pheasants in the mountains...
Sigh, we overpowered them and beat them until they ran away with their tails between their legs...
Her uncles and elders were afraid she would grow up to look like that, so every time they met her they would give her a long lecture, telling her that girls should be ladylike and gentle...
But if any of the mischievous kids ever made her cry, they would stand up for her, spank them until they were crying for their parents.
Well, in short, she has always been proud to have such a mother.
"Grandpa, I will keep it safe. When I get married and have children, I will pass it on to my children."
When it comes to getting married and having children, she isn't shy at all, as if it's just a perfectly normal thing.
Grandpa Bai and Fourth Brother Bai looked at her with some surprise. Normally, even if a girl isn't shy, she wouldn't be so frank when talking about her life's most important matter!
"My dear niece, why aren't you a little shy about talking about having a baby? It's like it's nothing, like drinking water or eating..."
Bai Yajing waved her hand dismissively, "Hey! What's the big deal? Several girls my age in our village are already married, and I've even gone to see them have babies."
That's all there is to it, nothing special. I've watched the village women fight with their husbands before, and I've come to the conclusion that as long as you have the strongest fist, no man will dare to defy you.
Besides, my grandparents said that getting married doesn't mean anything; it just means you've found someone you like and started a family together.
If the other one isn't good enough, we'll just move on to the next one! Besides, if a man is disobedient, a good beating will fix him; if one beating isn't enough, a few more will make him obedient.
These remarks left the father and son completely stunned.
"My goodness! This local custom is quite fierce, no wonder my niece has such thoughts. But... old man, do you think our niece will ever be able to get married?"
With her fighting skills, he was afraid she might beat his future nephew-in-law to death or maim him!
He shuddered at the thought of that scene.
Old Master Bai swallowed hard. "Heh... well, let's live further away after she gets married."
I have a feeling that her in-laws will come knocking on my door to cause trouble someday. Hehe, anyway, I'll just stay far away so they can't find me..."
Out of sight, out of mind; as long as my own girl doesn't suffer any loss, that's fine.
