Bai Qianmo let out a soft snort.
"First, I won't slander others before I've figured out the truth. Second, whether I have character flaws or not, you can refute me with evidence. Third, I'm in the Bai family because my surname is Bai. It seems like Bai Xiruo is the one who doesn't deserve to be in the Bai family, right?"
After saying that, Bai Qianmo gave a disdainful laugh.
The way they looked at Bai Yitang was like the way they would look at someone with an intellectual disability.
"I won't comment on whether Bai Xiruo is good or bad, but someone who is good at smearing others behind their backs can't be much better, don't you think?"
"You..." Bai Yitang clicked his tongue. Did he say that Xi Ruo told him?
"You're deliberately slandering Xi Ruo. She...she would never say such a thing to me. I'm just guessing."
Bai Qianmo scoffed coldly: "With your talent, why don't you focus on buying lottery tickets? Maybe you'll be the next billionaire."
After saying that, Bai Qianmo left.
Even if Bai Yitang was stupid, he could tell that Bai Qianmo was mocking him for lying.
He was so angry his face turned ashen: "This country bumpkin is simply unreasonable!"
Bai Qianmo returned to the backyard kitchen
Xu Hualan was busy in the kitchen with Zhao, the maid of the old house.
Xu Hualan was picking vegetables, chatting with Sister Zhao from time to time, showing no airs of a wealthy lady.
"Aunt, is there anything I can help you with?"
Upon seeing Bai Qianmo enter, Xu Hualan immediately smiled.
"Qianmo is back. Did you have fun with your friends yesterday?"
Bai Qianmo nodded, walked over and sat down next to Xu Hualan, and helped her pick vegetables.
Xu Hualan stared at her with a smile: "Did your grandfather say something to you?"
Bai Qianmo shook her head, but didn't say anything to her; she simply detained Gu Jueye.
“The old folks are conservative. Even though they know you went to a bar with your friends and got caught in the heavy rain and couldn’t go home, they were still worried about you. If they said a few words to you, don’t take it to heart.”
Bai Qianmo listened quietly, looking obedient.
Xu Hualan looked at her with a touch more tenderness: "What kind of dishes do you like to eat? I'll cook lunch today."
"I'm not picky about anything except seafood."
Xu Hualan frowned slightly: "Seafood allergy? Sister Zhao, please remember this: when Miss comes to the old house for meals in the future, it's best not to have seafood on the table. Also, it's best not to put any seafood seasonings or oyster sauce on the table either."
"I've made a note of that, madam!"
Bai Qianmo looked at Xu Hualan, her feelings inexplicably complicated.
"What are you thinking about?"
Seeing Bai Qianmo lost in thought, Xu Hualan smiled and looked at her.
Bai Qianmo didn't hide anything and looked up at her: "I was thinking, how wonderful it would be if my aunt were my mother."
Xu Hualan's smile froze slightly, and a hint of heartache appeared in her eyes.
"Silly girl, even though I am your aunt, I will still love you sincerely."
Xu Hualan's words were indeed full of sincerity.
Due to health issues, she had difficulty conceiving and took herbal remedies for many years to improve her health before finally giving birth to Yitang's son.
In fact, she really wanted to have another daughter, but her health wouldn't allow it, and Bai Kangcheng didn't approve of her taking any more risks, so this became her regret.
Seeing Qianmo, I felt a strange fondness for her, whether out of pity or sympathy.
Han Songyan is ungrateful. She carried this wonderful girl for ten months and gave birth to her. How could she be so heartless?
