Chapter 176 Smart people only know how to shift the problem



Faced with a suspicious mother and two equally remarkable brothers beside her.

Bai Yun'an has an incredibly good mindset.

I predicted it long ago, how could it not be good?

He looked at his mother and calmly shook his head: "How could I have such a thing!"

Jiang Dai: Stare.

Really? There still seems to be something wrong.

Is she being paranoid?

Or perhaps it's because too many people traveled through time, causing a bug?

Jiang Dai turned her gaze slightly to her eldest son.

"dog……"

Bai Yunqi raised an eyebrow and looked at his mother.

Jiang Dai readily changed her tune: "Yunqi, didn't you say last time that you sensed a strange fluctuation near our house? Could it be that besides our family, someone else has transmigrated?"

Now that the topic has come up, Bai Yunqi's gaze fell on his third brother again.

His dark eyes were fixed on Bai Yun'an, not missing a single unusual reaction from him.

“Last time, when the black dog brought back the severed hand, and Tie Zhu and the others from next door went out to explore, I actually left marks on all of you so I could detect your movements.”

"So, I knew he left home to find the manager of Zhenxiulou Restaurant, and I followed him. That's not surprising. What's surprising is..."

Bai Yunqi looked at his third brother: "When you returned home, the mark on your body disappeared. Did you encounter some strange person?"

Are they settling scores together?

Bai Yun'an sighed helplessly.

Who knew this family was so extraordinary? If he had known earlier, he would have been more careful.

However, Bai Yun'an's reaction to his older brother's question was quite normal.

"No!" He looked at his older brother suspiciously and asked, "Brother, what did you leave on me? How could you know where I went?"

Did you run into someone?

No, he didn't encounter anyone, nor did he know how the so-called things on his body disappeared.

Such an answer would actually be more credible.

Since so much time has passed and I haven't brought up the stranger I met, it would seem somewhat deliberate to bring it up now that I'm being asked.

It would be better to just say that you didn't encounter anyone and don't know how your belongings disappeared.

Without realizing it, they got their mother and older brother to pin everything that couldn't be explained on that "mysterious" person.

Only a fool would bother with such a complicated explanation.

Smart people will simply shift the focus away from the problem.

...

The move was a bit rushed, but thanks to Mu Zhaoyuan's help, it was actually much easier.

I picked through some things at home and didn't bring any that weren't necessary.

The journey is too long, so traveling light and quickly is the most important thing; the goods and money are secondary.

They still had enough money to buy some things after arriving in the capital.

Perhaps because she had already moved once, Juanjuan wasn't as nervous or reluctant as she was the first time.

This time, instead of crammed together in an oxcart, they rode in a horse-drawn carriage that Juanjuan had only seen a few times.

A horse-drawn carriage is definitely more comfortable than an oxcart; there's a soft cushion under your bottom.

Juanjuan sat on the mat, looking down at it intently.

I just think the pattern on this mat is really beautiful.

"Juanjuan, what's wrong? You're not moving at all. What's wrong with this mat?"

Juanjuan looked up at her mother, a little embarrassed, and said, "The flowers on this cushion are so pretty, they'll make beautiful clothes..."

Jiang Dai hadn't expected the little guy to be thinking about this.

"I'm going to the capital. Mommy, work hard to earn money and make pretty clothes for our Juanjuan, okay!"

Juanjuan nodded at her mother, then hesitated and said, "Mother, earning money is tiring, and the clothes I wear now are very nice!"

"I don't feel bad about playing with it. If I were to actually wear such beautiful clothes, I wouldn't dare to play, and I wouldn't be as happy."

Juanjuan knew that her parents were under pressure about going to the capital, and they were constantly thinking about what to do once they got there.

Actually, Juanjuan felt that as long as she could be with her current parents, that would be enough.

Even without money, she was still happy.

She doesn't need to wear pretty clothes, eat delicious food, or live in a big house; as long as her parents love her, she's happy.

A child who seems sensible, and whose words make sense.

Jiang Dai just chuckled: "Juanjuan has a point, but since Mom and Dad love Juanjuan, of course they want to give her the best!"

"When you only have one piece of clothing like this, you will indeed be hesitant to play around with it because you cherish it. But if all your clothes are like this, you can play around with it freely."

"It's like..."

Jiang Dai handed a small piece of mung bean cake to Juanjuan, "You only have one piece of mung bean cake right now, would you give it to someone else?"

Juanjuan: "Give it to our parents, give it to our brothers, and as for Dachui... split it in half!"

Hearing the little guy give it to her without hesitation, Jiang Dai smiled helplessly, her eyes full of affection. It was clear that she was quite happy to receive this answer.

“But if you had many pieces,” Jiang Dai said, giving the remaining mung bean cakes to Juanjuan, “would you still only give Dachui half a piece?”

Juanjuan looked at the many mung bean cakes in her hand and honestly shook her head.

"Give the sledgehammer two, three, or four pieces, it's all fine."

Jiang Dai nodded: "That's the point. Juanjuan thinks this fabric is very beautiful now, and is even reluctant to part with it, because Juanjuan doesn't have enough of it. Once she has it, she won't be so reluctant to part with it."

Juanjuan looked at the mung bean cake in her hand, pondered for a moment, but had not yet spoken.

Then I heard the older brother sitting outside talking.

"If I had this many mung bean cakes, I'd eat one and throw the other away!"

The next second, the second brother slapped the eldest brother.

"We must not waste food!"
