Bai Yalan was right next to it, and looking at all the random things inside, she also felt that something seemed a little strange. But Captain Fu had specially sent it to her door, so it was not easy.
Then he said, "Grandpa, maybe they just want to show their appreciation."
Mr. Bai casually put the box of royal jelly aside and snorted with disdain.
"I don't think it's that simple. Look at what these things are, they're all for nourishing the body. Women only eat these things during confinement. Don't tell me that old man Fu is sending them here to insult me."
Bai Yalan felt that her grandfather was making a big deal out of nothing and couldn't help laughing. "Grandpa, are you thinking too much? Grandpa Fu shouldn't be so boring."
"Who knows what this old guy is up to? He's been sitting around doing nothing all day, so he must be bored out of his mind, so he's bothering the kids with all these toys." Old Master Bai paced back and forth in the living room, saying, "A weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken has no good intentions. I guess he's trying to bribe me with these things and get his hands on you. He's even thinking of you becoming his grandson's wife, the granddaughter-in-law of their old Fu family!"
Bai Yalan found it hilarious and covered her mouth with her hands, laughing, "Grandpa, you have such a rich imagination. Captain Fu is quite an excellent person, so Grandpa Fu shouldn't be that bad."
When Mr. Bai heard this, he was not happy. "Well, his old master's grandson is excellent, so my granddaughter is not so good?" Mr. Bai stopped and tapped Bai Yalan's head. "You little girl, you only boost others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige. Don't underestimate my grandfather's sharp intuition. How can I not see what his old master is thinking? You think you can impress me by giving me some gifts? No way!"
Bai Yalan touched the head that had been hit, hissed exaggeratedly, and said with a smile, "Grandpa, please stop guessing. Even if you say so, and Grandpa Fu chooses me as his grandson's wife, it depends on whether we are willing. Captain Fu may not even have such an idea. Besides, I just want to work hard now and don't want to think about these things."
But Old Master Bai refused to agree: "Son, work is work, and it shouldn't interfere with personal relationships. Didn't Grandpa tell you before? Grandpa will help you choose, and we'll carefully select and keep him for our Bai family, looking for an excellent grandson-in-law."
Bai Yalan had no choice but to say: "Okay, okay! But Grandpa, I'm not that old, let's not rush it."
This time, Mr. Bai seemed to agree: "Well, there's no need to rush."
Mr. Bai sat back on the sofa, looked at the big bag of supplements again, and expressed his opinion very seriously.
"I see that Old Man Fu has sent so many things over here. He must be preparing to mobilize his army and get food and fodder first. He wants to bribe me with these things... No, I'm not that easily bribed! Girl, they might be sending these things just for you. He might have a trick up his sleeve. We have to be on our guard. You must not be bribed by his sweet talk."
Bai Yalan was at a loss for words. Even the theory of sugar-coated bullets came out. Grandpa was so adorable.
She put the things away and tied the bag tightly again. She didn't mind at all and just said casually, "Grandpa, don't worry about it. Maybe they just want to give you something, nothing more."
But Mr. Bai said, "Hey, little girl, just watch, I'm sure Grandpa is right."
Bai Yalan just said a few perfunctory words and laughed it off.
