After returning home from school, Gu Yan did not come to pick them up from school again. Bai Tang was not at all surprised by this result, but Bai Nan was a little inexplicably disappointed. It can be seen that Gu Yan already has a good place in the hearts of the children.
"Cousin, I heard they said that you had a fight with someone at noon?" Rumors spread at an astonishing speed, not to mention that there were some people who fueled the flames, so Bai Feng, who was a grade lower than him, also knew about the situation at noon. fights. "That person is too hateful. If you make a fuss about the second uncle, you should hit it harder, cousin."
Baitang still leaned on the back of the sofa and closed his eyes to rest. Hearing Bai Feng's indignant words in his ears, he felt a little emotional. Their uncle himself is not very good, but the two sons he raised are good, especially Bai Feng, who is too pure and kind.
"Yes." Bai Nan got approval from others for the first time, and immediately forgot that she felt that Bai Feng talked too much and was a bit annoying in the morning. Can't do it."
Bai Feng followed with a regretful expression, "Why did your teacher come so early? It must be that person who can't beat my cousin. It's so irresponsible to find someone to inform the teacher!"
"Yes, it must have been tipped off."
"It's okay, we'll get the venue back later."
Bai Nan suddenly felt that this cousin was pleasing to the eye, but the child's father was too unreliable, otherwise he could have gotten closer. Thinking of this, Bai Nan lost interest in Bai Feng again, and stopped talking to him on the excuse of being too tired and wanting to rest. Poor little Bai Feng couldn't understand why the two people who had a good conversation just now didn't want to talk to him all of a sudden.
Back at Bai's house, Cheng Bo told the three siblings that Bai Jingyang, Bai's father and Gu Yan would work overtime at the company, so they would not come back for dinner. The three nodded and went upstairs to do their homework.
In fact, Bai Tang didn't really do his homework, went back to his room and went straight to bed, and fell asleep. After a day at school today, and the injury she suffered yesterday has not fully recovered, her spirit has reached its limit.
After sleeping for about two hours, Bai Nan knocked on her door and asked her to go down for dinner. She slowly sat up from the bed, went to the bathroom to wash her face before going out. Bai Nan didn't notice her strangeness, and when she saw her coming out, she started nagging: "You didn't see Bai Feng's mother yesterday, she seems much easier to get along with than uncle."
Baitang was noncommittal, the two arrived at the dining table, the old man and Li Shuqian mother and son sat down at their seats, and they greeted the two elders together.
"Baitang, I heard that you were sick when I came back yesterday. Are you feeling better now?"
"Thank you, auntie, for your concern. It's all over."
Li Shuqian showed a relaxed expression, and continued to care in her mouth: "Winter is coming soon, you and Bai Nan should pay attention to your health. Xiaofeng and you too, if there is something uncomfortable, don't procrastinate and refuse to talk about it, thinking that your body Well, you won't get sick."
"I know, Mom." Bai Feng had heard such words a lot, so of course he didn't take them to heart.
The Baitang siblings also expressed their gratitude to Li Shuqian for her concern.
Hearing their polite words to each other, the old man also opened his mouth: "Today is the first day of school at Qiming, how do you feel?"
Bai Nan glanced at Bai Tang quietly, and took the lead in answering: "It's good, some of the classmates in the class are very interesting." He felt that he didn't tell the rumors, which proved that he had become mature. Baitang's answer slapped her face.
So, in Bai Nan's shock, Bai Tang gave a different answer: "Grandpa, are there many students who know Dad in school?" The old man was puzzled, and Bai Tang continued, "At noon, everyone in our grade I know what happened to my father's legs."
The old man's eyes suddenly became more energetic, and Li Shuqian next to him also had a thoughtful expression. After a while, the old man replied lightly: "I know about this matter. You are studying hard at school. What's wrong with you?" Tell Lao Cheng where he went, and he will arrange it."
Afterwards, as the dinner came to the table, the family began to enjoy the dinner quietly. After dinner, the three juniors were unwilling to stay to watch the news and current events, so they all went upstairs. Cheng Bo asked his servant to bring up three plates of fruit.
Upstairs, Bai Feng wanted to play with Bai Nan, but Bai Nan tricked him out of the room, and he turned around and went to Bai Tang's room. Baitang was doing homework, but he didn't raise his head when he heard his footsteps, "What's the matter?"
"Why did you tell grandpa about your father?" Bai Nan didn't understand, because Baitang had always objected to him telling his father about outside affairs before, and he didn't like him making trouble outside irrationally, why did the opposite happen today? Did she make the report herself
Baitang put down his pen and turned around, looked at the child's puzzled expression, couldn't help but sighed: "Don't you always say you're smarter than me? Sometimes why don't you remember to turn a few more corners?"
"What turn?"
Seeing his expression, Baitang sighed even more, and the child opened his eyes with disbelief. She smiled slightly: "Shall I explain it to you more clearly?" The child became even more dissatisfied, "Today's incident, at a young age, is that some people think that our siblings are not pleasing to the eye, and want us to have a hard time at school. When we grow up To put it bluntly, it was a festival with the Bai family, but we first introduced the matter to our two juniors to test the Bai family behind. Probably just want to find out what status Dad will be after returning to the Bai family. "
Bai Nan blinked again and again, as if she couldn't believe that it was just a rumor, how could there be so many messed up things. "Then why did you tell Grandpa?"
Baitang smiled and saw that he didn't give an answer. Bai Nan knew that she was testing herself, so she lowered her head and meditated. After a while, she sorted out what she was thinking: "If you mean to grow up according to what you just said, it is to let Grandpa know that someone started Target our Bai family. In this case, grandpa will find someone to find out who is stalking us, and then I will follow the vine and find out who is behind the scenes, right?" At the end, the child felt that he said He was definitely right, looking at Baitang with bright eyes and waiting for her to reveal the answer.
Baitang rubbed his head habitually, and said with a smile: "Only half of what you say is right, and the other half is up to you. I have to do my homework." Now the old man seems to have let go of power and let things go, but this This is a good excuse to preemptively strike, and it will not be missed.
"You haven't finished writing it yet, no, why am I half right?" Bai Nan didn't believe it, thinking that Bai Tang just didn't want to please him.
Could Baitang still fail to see his small thoughts, and directly killed the child with one blow: "Did you get a result of your father's matter?"
"I'll find out, just wait." After finishing speaking, he walked out angrily.
Baitang shook his head, turned his attention back to the homework on the table, stared at the reading questions on it, and felt depressed again after just mentioning it. It would be great if they were all translated into classical Chinese.
The next day, when Baitang went downstairs, he first saw Gu Yan who was reading the morning newspaper at the dining table, called "Uncle" from a distance, took another newspaper from the table and sat opposite Gu Yan .
"I heard about the second brother."
Bai Tang raised her face from the newspaper, Gu Yan put down the newspaper in her hand, looked at her expression as if she wanted to express concern or comfort, but because she was not good at it and was not used to it, her facial expression became more cold and hard. What he said couldn't be compared with the slightest concern: "Second brother and I don't care about what happens in school, that's something that needs to be dealt with by you and Bai Nan."
"I know." Baitang couldn't be more clear about what kind of person Gu Yan is. This man never thinks that children should enjoy the protection of their elders for granted. What he believes in is that what happens to him should be resolved by himself. . What's more, it's just rumors, and this man doesn't take it seriously at all. "I will also tell Bai Nan."
Gu Yan nodded and stopped talking.
Bai Tang didn't want to talk to him at first, but when he suddenly remembered about the Jade Buddha, he still couldn't hold back: "Uncle, where did you buy the Jade Buddha you gave me last time?" But if there is a chance, she doesn't want to give up.
Gu Yan was also surprised at Baitang's initiative. When the two of them got together, he was the one who spoke first. "Jade Buddha? I ordered it from a friend."
Baitang frowned, "Then where did the jade you found come from?"
"Saw it at the auction."
Sure enough, luck is not so easy to come by, and getting a piece is already a sign of her luck. Baitang quickly adjusted the disappointment in her heart, and Gu Yan did not miss the disappointment that flashed across her, "Is there something wrong with the Jade Buddha?" He found out the next day after giving the jade, and Bai Nan immediately hung the jade he gave on the around the neck, but Baitang never wore it once.
Baitang shook his head, "I just feel that the workmanship of this piece of jade is very special, so I asked a few more questions."
With such an answer, Baitang knew that he couldn't fool Gu Yan, but it was enough to deal with Gu Yan's questions, the latter is not a person who asks the truth. Facts proved Baitang's judgment, Gu Yan just glanced at her and didn't speak until he finished breakfast and went out.
After Bai Tang had finished his breakfast, Bai Nan and Bai Feng arrived at the dining room belatedly.
Going to school the next day, the siblings no longer had the privilege of yesterday, and were required to participate in morning exercises with the students in the class. Standing on the playground, Baitang listened to the "No. XX Radio Gymnastics" broadcast from the loudspeaker, with a slightly distorted expression on his face. For some unknown reason in the previous middle school, students in the third grade of junior high school were not required to attend.
Three to five minutes of morning exercises, she would rather go back to Qing Yunzong to practice a set of swordsmanship repeatedly for several hours. The past cannot be recalled, so she should look away and treat herself as a teenage child like these children.
But, it can't be done. But in the eyes of the teachers in front, Baitang's movements are more pleasing to the eye than the students around him, so they feel that this student is really serious about doing morning exercises, and their favorability gradually rises.
Baitang didn't know anything about it, after finishing morning exercises, he didn't want to say a word anymore. But no one talked to her, except Zhou Chen who was at the same table. "You know my uncle?"
Hearing this, Baitang's mood worn down by morning exercises became clearer, and her medicinal bath was almost done. "How many times have you seen it?"
Zhou Chen sized her up with strange eyes. He was very surprised when he heard Baitang's name from his uncle when he went back yesterday. The rumor about the transfer student was confirmed by Baitang himself, so how did my uncle know about this person? Or, is there anything special about this person that caught my uncle's attention
"Tell me your mobile phone number, my uncle said I have something to do with you." After Zhou Ting asked for Baitang's mobile phone number, Zhou Chen confirmed the latter's guess. With his brother-in-law's personality, he would not naively think that a man simply fell in love with a little girl, and his brother-in-law couldn't deal with female students.
Bai Tang picked up a pen and wrote down a series of numbers, tore off the page and handed it to Zhou Chen. Although the Zhou family is in deep crisis now, it is quite easy to check her mobile phone number. Then, the investigation either went smoothly, or some clues were found to prove that what she said was true, and I wanted to ask her for help. Either way, it's a good development for her.
Zhou Chen took her mobile phone number and sent the number on it to his uncle in front of her.
Seeing his action, Baitang confirmed the second guess.
