Bai Erzhu thought about it, and then shook his head: “If they were me, now that I have a lot, field and money, I will not return again.”
Mrs. Zhang looked at her son and asked the same question: “Fugui, how about you? If you are Bai Zhi will you come back again in the Bai Family?”
Bai Fugui also shook his head: “Of course, I won’t. Why should I go back? They’re making me work all day long, but will only let me eat leftover rice soup. They’re also scolding and beating me all the time. Even the place I lived was leaking everywhere. In that kind of life, I will absolutely never return.”
Mrs. Zhang open her mouth and said: “See? Even you all know their situation in this family very clearly. So, do you think Bai Zhi doesn’t know? It’s not easy to separate in this family. But now they did, and they have a lot and field. Do you think Bai Zhi will return to suffer once again? Impossible! Unless she has lost her mind.”
Bai Erzhu seems to understand the meaning his wife: “So, you mean to say, no matter what they do, we shouldn’t care?”
When Mrs. Zhang saw her husband finally opened his mind, her facial expression soften by 3 points: “That’s right, no matter what they do, don’t pay attention. Don’t partic.i.p.ate. Just let them go to cause trouble for themselves and see how Bai Zhi clean them up.”
If it was like before, Bai Erzhu will not listen to his wife. But now, he has suffered a big loss. In addition to that, he also saw how biased his mother to his elder brother’s family to his family. It’s better to stay in their room and don’t pay attention to their activities. At least, he will not suffer as much as he did today.
“Alright, I will listen to you.” Bai Erzhu responded.
Mrs. Zhang secretly sighed with relief and felt a little better. Then, she said to her husband and son: “You two rest first. I will cook with Zhenzhu.”
After Mrs. Zhang walked out of the room, she shouted at her daughter that was still standing in the courtyard, refusing to enter the house: “Zhenzhu, what are you doing? Come over here and help me make fire.”
Bai Zhenzhu reluctantly walked into the house. Their house was in a big mess. The floor was filled with broken debris. Their tables and chairs were smashed and thrown in the corner. Was this place really their house?
“Niang, how did our house become like this?” Bai Zhenzhu frowned and asked.
Mrs. Zhang took Bai Zhenzhu into the kitchen. Their kitchen looked horrible like the front hall. Even their pots on the stone stove were not spared… …
Mrs. Zhang sighed and said: “Your Grandmother and Aunt received silver coins from someone in the Baiyang Village. They intend to marry off Bai Zhi to that person and collected 10 silver coins in advance. But as a result, the day before the marriage, rumors about Bai Zhi cannot give birth spread all over the village up to the Baiyang Village. That person from the Baiyang Village learned about this and thought that your grandmother and aunt are only trying to swindle him. So, he brought many men into our place and cause trouble. That’s why our house looked like this.”
Bai Zhenzhu lived in her uncle’s house in these past few days, she only heard some rumors, but she didn’t expect that things escalated like this.
“So, Bai Zhi didn’t get married?”
Mrs. Zhang replied: “Of course, she didn’t get married. That person from the Baiyang Village took back his money to your grandmother. Your grandmother was so angry and drive away Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan in our family. They made a written agreement that they are now separated from us. They don’t have any relationship to the Bai Family anymore.”
When Bai Zhenzhu heard those words, her face glowed with excitement: “That’s great. That dead girl, Bai Zhi, finally disappeared under my nose.”
How can Mrs. Zhang doesn’t know what her daughter was thinking?
Bai Zhi has a delicate appearance, she was born with smooth and fair white skin. Although her complexion was tan right now, it can turn white any time soon. Every time Bai Zhenzhu stand next to Bai Zhi, people always try to compare them, which started Bai Zhenzhu’s envious hatred.
