Chapter 14: Chapter 14: She Won't Take the Blame
Bai Zhi followed them out and didn't forget to call back to Bai Dan,@@@@
"Grandpa, remember to come pick me up later!"
She was scared; otherwise, she wouldn't be able to come back later. Anyway, she wouldn't be mixing with them,
"Okay!"
Bai Dan's voice was robust and warm. In fact, he heard everything and was also afraid that Xingxing wouldn't return, then he would be left alone in this small courtyard. Since Xingxing had said so, he naturally had to go pick Xingxing up,
Hearing Bai Dan's voice, Bai Zhi felt more reassured, and naturally, a smile appeared on her face, Go ahead then,
After all, Bai Yu was still a child now, how badly could he harm her?
He wasn't yet the Bai Yu who could overturn clouds with his hand, harm people, and still smile about it,
So, he was just a mischievous kid, what was there to be afraid of, especially since...
Bai Zhi's glance inadvertently caught the group pet female lead's face, always smiling adorably,
That person was practically a saint, she would definitely not let Bai Yu bully her,
The four children walked a few hundred meters, Bai Yu's gaze turned towards the bamboo forest, and Bai Ye quickly understood,
"Bai Zhi, let's rest for a bit,"
Then, holding Xixi's small hand, his face full of sympathy.
"Xixi, are you tired? Let's rest for a bit,"
"Mmm~" Xixi quickly shook her head, very obediently smiling at Bai Ye, pulling his hand,
"Brother Ye, I'm not tired, but sister might be tired. It's good to rest for a bit, sister, is your injury better?"
The group pet looked at Bai Zhi with concern,
The concern in her eyes seemed genuine. The book always said how kind this group pet was, no matter how the original owner hurt her, she would forgive time and again because she treated the original owner as family,
But was it really so?
Bai Zhi was skeptical; even if the group pet was genuinely kind in her childhood, but later, as the group pet, she'd been through numerous plots and schemes with the male lead, could she continue to be perpetually kind?
Several times it seemed she was pleading for the original owner, but in reality, she was only adding fuel to the fire!
So...
She really couldn't grow fond of the group pet, but then again, she was indeed well cared for, chubby and round-faced, wearing a pink little dress, adorable no matter how you looked at it!
Bai Zhi looked at Bai Ye indifferently, as if he were a stranger,
She casually looked at her hands, which were gaunt and bony looking, quite ugly indeed,
"You say I'm greedy, but I'm just a young girl. Is it wrong for me to be greedy, to ask you to buy me candy?
I cook for you, do your laundry, take care of all the household chores to give you time to dig fish mint. Isn't it right for you to buy me a piece of candy?
Couldn't I buy it myself if I went digging too?"
Household chores aren't easy, because of Bai Da's job, Bai Zhi was handling all the meals, feeding the chickens and pigs, all by herself!
Not to mention the work in the fields. Even though she didn't farm, wasn't she the one weeding and fertilizing?
She carried a large basket to the fields to cut pigweed, and once back, she had to cook,
Then she had to feed the pigs—which was easy, right? Every time lifting things into the pigpen was incredibly exhausting. How could they, who only went out to dig fish mint, qualify to judge her?
"I... Aren't household chores supposed to be your responsibility? You're the girl; so what if you cook?"
Bai Ye seemed at a loss for words; when had Bai Zhi become so articulate?
But he quickly recovered,
"Then why don't you let Xixi do it?"
Bai Zhi looked at Bai Ye sarcastically, as if he had made a joke!
Just because she's a girl she should cook? Why?
"How can you say that? Xixi is still young, and aren't you aware of her poor health? How can you be so unreasonable?"
Bai Ye exploded in anger, stepping in front of Xixi to protect her,
Huh...
Young? They both share the same birthday. Moreover, it's clear who's really in poorer health, isn't it?
With Bai Zhi's frail body that could be blown over by a breath and her plump appearance, who's actually unwell?
However, discussing this was pointless.
Bai Yu also stood there with a dark face and a frown, his gaze towards Bai Zhi filled with displeasure and a flicker of disgust?
"Bai Zhi, you shouldn't talk about Xixi; you clearly know Xixi was nearly in grave danger before due to your negligence. Isn't it right for you to take extra care of Xixi?"
See, this rank is much higher than simply yelling. Bai Ye just knows how to shout loudest; it really hasn't much impact, but Bai Yu is different, he specifically targets the original owner's heart. But this blame, neither she nor the original owner will take it!
