Bai Ruoyun was a little scared and nodded, "It's my duty. I'll just drink this to satisfy my craving." Although she liked to take advantage and play tricks, Bai Lishan came out with her after all, and she really never blamed him. But her eldest sister's words made her feel a little uncomfortable. Why did she say it was because Lishan's family was poor? In her opinion, it was her eldest sister who made them poor.
"Look, a nine-year-old child is more sensible than you, Bai Ruoxin. You've been eating for nothing for the past twenty years." Bai Ruozhen had never lost his temper so much before. "I'm telling you, don't even think about drinking a single sip of this chicken soup. If you dare to have any thoughts about Li Shan's things, I'll dare to pour the chicken soup on you."
Bai Ruoxin shuddered and felt that Bai Ruozhen was a little scary. Bai Ruozhen was quite powerful before he was hit on the head, but he didn't dare to hit her. After the hit, he became a completely different person and acted pitiful all day long. How come he became so powerful after not seeing him for half a year?
Bai Jiansheng looked at Bai Ruoxin, pulled her over, and kicked her. Bai Ruoxin screamed and fell to the ground, not getting up for a long time.
Li Qiulan wiped her tears, not understanding how it turned out like this. It seemed like there was no peace in this family as long as the eldest daughter was around. Why couldn't she just stop?
"If you don't want to live here, get out of here." Bai Jiansheng squeezed out the words from between his teeth, completely forgetting that he had to be patient in front of the guests. This eldest daughter was really good at challenging his patience. If he continued to endure it, Gu Changqing would think that he, as a father, was condoning his eldest daughter to bully her younger siblings.
Gu Changqing sighed and said, "Uncle and aunt, I'm going back first and will come back tomorrow."
"Alas." Li Qiulan wiped away her tears and said to Bai Ruozhen, "Go see Xiao Gu off."
Bai Ruozhen nodded and pushed the door open, closing it. Gu Changqing took her hand and said, "Zhenzhen, you've worked so hard." Living in such a home was thanks to her parents' clarity of mind. If her parents had continued to favor the eldest child, it would have been even more difficult for them, the younger ones, to survive at home.
Bai Ruozhen was stunned, "Brother Changqing, I'm sorry."
"What's there to be sorry about? It's not your fault." Gu Changqing said.
Bai Ruozhen hummed, "I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself."
"It doesn't matter. Every family has its own problems." said Gu Changqing.
"Do you have any at home?" Bai Ruozhen asked.
Gu Changqing hummed, "Of course, Xiaoli probably didn't say it either, but my eldest sister-in-law is a real troublemaker. But my eldest brother is blind and thinks that's just her true nature. In fact, if my eldest sister-in-law's father wasn't capable, my eldest brother wouldn't think so." He sneered, "Only my eldest brother would curry favor with others for his own future."
Bai Ruozhen didn't know about these because she had never met Brother Gu or Sister-in-law Gu. However, she had met all the other brothers and sisters, and they were all good-natured people.
Gu Changqing shook her hand and stopped, saying, "Okay, don't think too much, just go up, we'll be leaving in a few days anyway."
Bai Ruozhen smiled and said, "Well, I won't pick you up tomorrow, you can come by yourself."
Gu Changqing sighed, "Okay."
After watching Gu Changqing leave, Bai Ruozhen's smile disappeared from her face. Bai Ruoxin was completely confused. It seemed that she would have to find Pei Guohong tomorrow and ask her to help find a good place for Bai Ruoxin.
When she went upstairs, she ran into Aunt Wang who was peeking into her house. Bai Ruozhen smiled and said, "Aunt Wang, what are you looking at?"
Aunt Wang turned around and patted her chest. "Oh, you scared me to death, girl! I just heard a quarrel at home. What's the quarrel about? Are your parents unwilling to let you marry into the countryside?"
"The countryside? Who said I'm going to marry in the countryside?" Bai Ruozhen raised his voice slightly. "Although my partner's family is from the countryside, he has a city hukou and is a formal employee of the Yancheng Transportation Company. His brothers and sisters are also very successful and are either workers or cadres."
"Ah? So good?" Aunt Wang was stunned. "I don't believe it."
Bai Ruozhen smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't believe me. Look at what I'm wearing. They were all bought by my boyfriend. Look, I've gained a lot of weight. My boyfriend's family treats me to delicious food. I have to eat even if I don't want to."
The more Aunt Wang talked, the darker her face became. "I still don't believe it. Then what's the quarrel about in your family?"
"We don't have arguments in our family," Bai Ruozhen said. "My boyfriend bought an old hen for our family today, and after it was stewed, no one wanted to drink it. Now we wanted our parents to have some, but they didn't want to, so we started arguing."
"You're not even happy to drink chicken soup, tut tut." Aunt Wang stopped watching the fun and went back to the house smacking her lips. If she was given a pot of chicken soup, she would want to swallow it all. She was still being modest, what a fool.
Seeing Aunt Wang go home, Bai Ruozhen also pushed the door open and went home. The people in the room must have heard what she said. It was very quiet at the moment. Bai Ruoxin hid in the corner and sobbed. Bai Ruoyun drank chicken soup as if no one was around. Bai Lishan sat at the table full of uneasiness. Bai Jiansheng and Li Qiulan sat facing each other in silence.
Seeing her come in, Bai Jiansheng asked, "Are you going home?"
Bai Ruozhen nodded.
Bai Jiansheng looked at her apologetically, "It's all because your parents didn't take good care of your eldest sister, and she brought shame upon you."
Hearing this, Bai Ruozhen glanced at Bai Ruoxin and said, "Dad, this is none of your business. Some people just deserve to be punished. Once they get hurt outside the house, they'll know how good their family members are."
Bai Jiansheng and Li Qiulan both agreed with this statement, but Bai Ruoxin felt that her second sister was simply born to be against her. She felt that no matter how bad others were, they were not as bad as her. She had received all these beatings because of Bai Ruozhen.
