Chapter 1048 Aren’t you cheated?

Bai Ruozhu glanced in the direction where Xiao Si left, then stood up and saluted Xuan Jizi, "Thank you, elder, for not asking more questions just now."

Xuanjizi smiled and stroked his snow-white beard, and said, "You have your reasons even if you don't tell me. I'm not a meddlesome person. It's just that Mr. Niu knows the way to Huashan, and he will be able to find it again sooner or later."

Bai Ruozhu heard it. Elder Xuanjizi hoped that she could explain, otherwise the Bai family would be unreasonable. Elder Xuanjizi would not let the Huashan sect drive Cuicui away. After all, the Huashan sect also wanted reputation, otherwise it would be rumored to be bullied. A lonely widow.

"The elder is Xiaosi's master, the person closest to him, so there is no need to hide this from you." Bai Ruozhu then briefly explained how he found out that Xiaosi was not a Bai family member, and then learned about his life experience from Mrs. Niu. Speak out.

Xuanjizi frowned when he heard this, and understood why Bai Ruozhu didn't want Xiao Si to know. He saw how bumpy the child's life was, but he didn't want him to have this kind of life experience.

"Elder, please don't misunderstand my Ruozhu family. That Niu family is indeed evil." Bai Yihong also said angrily.

Bai Ruozhu smiled at her father. She knew that the whole family supported what she just did.

"Should the elders know about the rebellion of King Duan before? That was when martial law was enforced everywhere in Beiyu City. The Niu family suddenly came to the door and shouted outside the gate that he wanted to recognize his relatives. Later, because he did not have identity documents, he The ultimatum was seized by the government." Bai Ruozhu said and sighed, "I knew at that time that Batian Village was colluding with the Turkic Kingdom and was also related to King Duan's rebellion, so I was afraid that this matter would implicate Xiao Si. Later, the woman came to find him again. Come, I'll have a good talk with her and ask her to come back ten years later to recognize her, for the sake of Xiaosi's safety and future."

Xuanjizi nodded, "It was indeed too dangerous at that time. Fortunately, Zeqing followed me to Huashan."

"I saw that she was lonely and helpless, so I said I would give her two hundred taels of silver, but I asked her to agree to give me forty years. She agreed at that time, and also accepted the money and said she wanted to go back to her hometown to live, but she didn't want to go to Huashan. I found Xiaosi, so I felt that she had evil intentions, and even more doubted whether she was Xiaosi's biological mother."

Bai Ruozhu looked at her father, "Dad, Mrs. Niu told us everything back then, and there were no other witnesses. That woman was so greedy and shameless, and we all felt that her daughter's reputation was involved. She would not tell nonsense, nor I believed her words. But now I see Niu’s appearance several times, which always makes me feel unusual. How could she find our home in Beiyu City at that time? How did she find Huashan by herself later? "

Bai Yihong looked surprised, "This, this...were we really deceived by them?"

"I don't know. I have to find someone to investigate. But Batian Village was just destroyed, so the bandits were all labeled as traitors and killed. It's not appropriate to talk about things related to Batian Village now." Bai Ruozhu said and thought about it. The man who looked very much like Shi Feiming couldn't help but twitch his eyelids.

"Whether Mrs. Niu is Zeqing's biological mother or not, she can't be recognized now. You are right to drive her away." Elder Xuanjizi sighed, "She doesn't keep her word, and she still doesn't care about Xiaosi." For the sake of her safety, after going to Huashan, I didn’t even mention that I had received two hundred taels of silver from you. Instead, I mentioned intentionally or unintentionally that the Bai family didn’t want to return the child to her, and wanted to send her away with money. Before, I thought it was just a woman. He is very nagging, but now that I think about it, he is quite a scheming person."

Bai Ruozhu saluted Elder Xuanjizi again, "Thank you very much, Elder, for trusting our family."

Xuanjizi waved his hand, "Zeqing is not a member of the Bai family. You have done so much for him, and whatever you do is for his good."

At this time, Xiaosi returned with Dengdeng chatting and laughing, and everyone winked and stopped talking. It was not that he deliberately hid it from him, but that no one knew what was going on. What if? Let the child know and feel sad but then find out that he has been cheated. Isn’t that a blow in vain?

"Sister, you just called me uncle!" Xiao Si looked excited and had already forgotten about Niu's matter.

Bai Ruozhu stood up with a smile and went over to meet her, "That's really not easy. It's not easy for uncle to shout out "Teng Deng". Your second brother teases him a lot, and he also likes to scream."

Xiaosi smiled even happier, "Dengdeng likes me."

Dengdeng does like to play with Xiaosi. The age difference between the two is not that big. In Dengdeng's eyes, Xiaosi is a big brother, so of course she likes to play with him.

At this time, Rong'er also came over, and shyly stepped forward to talk to Xiaosi. The two playmates had not seen each other for a long time, and they had a lot to say, so they simply ran to the yard to play. Poor Xiaodeng followed. No, he frowned unhappily. Xiaosi suddenly started playing with Dengdeng first, then turned around and returned, taking Dengdeng with him, and said, "Sister, I'll take Dengdeng out to play for a while."

"Go, be careful." Bai Ruozhu winked at Grandma Zhang, and Grandma Zhang immediately followed her with two maids.

Seeing Xiaosi leaving, Elder Xuanjizi spoke again: "I will tell you on the other side of Huashan that the woman will not be allowed to linger."

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "I will arrange for someone to check. If there are any results, I will write to the elder to inform him."

"good."

In the evening, Bai Zepei came back and there was a lot of excitement again. Bai Zepei also asked the fourth grader to take an exam and asked him some questions. The fourth grader answered clearly and clearly. Elder Xuanjizi was stroking his beard very proudly beside him. Bai Zepei saluted him, "Thanks to the elder's teaching, Xiaosi has made great progress."

Xuanjizi said with a smile: "It's because he has a high understanding and is willing to work hard. Master led him in. Cultivation is personal. If he doesn't work hard, it will be useless."

After hearing this, everyone naturally praised Xiaosi. Afterwards, the Bai family served wine to Elder Xuanjizi and Xiaosi. Everyone had a lively meal. Bai Yihong accompanied Xuanjizi and drank a few glasses of wine.

When the night got late, everyone dispersed. Bai Ruozhu arranged a place for Xuan Jizi and Xiao Si. The master and apprentice still lived together, which made Xuan Jizi feel that Bai Ruozhu was very good at doing things.

"Master, did my sister say something to you?" Xiao Si asked after returning to the house.

Xuanjizi stroked his beard and said, "You kid seems to be silent, but in fact you know what's going on in your heart. In this case, why don't you ask her yourself?"

"I believe sister, she's just out of curiosity. Asking her would make things difficult for her." Xiaosi lowered his head and said.

"That's the right thing to think about. Your sister won't harm you, just do as she says. Don't think too much about anything else. If you want to get ahead, you shouldn't be distracted. Spend your time practicing martial arts and studying." Xuanjizi said.

Xiao Si nodded and didn't ask any more questions. However, when he took Xiao Deng Deng to play in the garden before, he heard Niu's cry from a distance...
