If anything else, we can sell this kid to another man as their XXXX toy. With that look, at the very least heâs worth a Dan pill.
âUncle.â
When Bai Xiachen (baby boy) heard those hollering words from the old granny, he immediately took on a shocked and frightened appearance: âThis old woman is so scary. She wouldnât be trying to sell me, right?â
Going soft in his eyes, Bai Xiao (brother) attempts to calm the boy: âDonât worry, she doesnât have anything to do with you so she has no grounds to try anything like that.â
âIs that true?â Wrinkling his cute little nose, âBut back when I was on the Holy Island, I saw a fox tricking a crow so that it could snatch the food right out of its mouth. The eyes it made is exactly like this woman, tricky and scheming. Iâm scaredâ¦â
Old Madam Yuâs face didnât look so well right now because she was constantly trying to suppress her urge to lash out at the boy.
âDonât worry, my tone was a little heavy there, but thereâs no way I would sell you. In the end you are still our blood.â Through much difficulty, the shameless old woman finally manages an awkward smile that even a kid can see through it.
Although the old granny went by the surname Yu, she had for many years considered herself a part of the Bai family, hence the reason why she could say such outlandish lies so smoothly.
âMoreover, donât you want to see your grandfather?â
Grandfather?
Pinching his small little mouth in displeasure, That bad man wouldnât even get a doctor for my uncle when heâs sick. Now this old woman actually wants me to go see him instead?
âEven if you wonât recognize me as your great grandmother, your grandfather is still your grandfather. That wonât change no matter what. Now that you are here in the city, you must go meet him. If not, your motherâs reputation will only get worse if the word spreads.â
The plan here was that she will first trick the foolish boy back into their home. Once thatâs done, they can do whatever they want afterwards.
âLittle Xiachen.â Watching the scheming old woman in front of him, Bai Xiaoâs expression grew even darker: âLet me bring you back to your mother.â
Contrary to what the young man expected, his nephew didnât follow him when he tried to pull him away.
Blinking those na?ve looking eyes, âOkay, I will go see my grandfather.â
Humph!
That old baddie bullied Mother, so this time Iâm going to have a whack at him!
Old Madam Yu was quite complacent in her devious smile here, but before she can get cocky over her lies, a series of persuading voices broke out from the onlooking crowd.
âLittle one, you mustnât go with her to the Bai House, she already called you a wild child earlier. if you do, you will definitely suffer at their hands.â
Six years ago the world had assumed Old Madam Yu fainted on the street because of her good relationship with Bai Yan after she eloped with another man. But now, after witnessing the insulting words from this old woman here, the crowd can see thatâs clearly not the case. Furthermore, thereâs been word coming out from the palace since this morning that the Sovereign Prince was the one who forced his way onto Bai Yan back then. If thatâs the truth, then the story preached around by the Bai House wouldnât stand anymore. Clearly there are many details missing from the original storyâ¦
âDear uncles and aunties,â Bai Xiachen politely made a bow to greet the good people. âBack when my mother held the banquet at the Lan House, she had already dissolved any relationship she had with the Bai house. However, this old woman keeps on bothering me despite that fact, claiming I will humiliate my mother if I donât go with her. In order to not bring shame to my mother, I can only make a trip back with her to settle this for good.â
