55: Chapter 55: Confronted at the Door 55: Chapter 55: Confronted at the Door An Hao glanced at her and said nothing.
She had done everything she needed to do; all that remained was to watch Bai Xue.
Sure enough, Bai Xue spoke up, “Mom, Jianshe, since it’s like this, just go!
It’s for Fengzi’s sake and for An Hao’s good!
If you want to visit in the future, co back then, but let’s not make a spectacle of this matter for all the neighbors to know.
You know how gossip can kill people.
Being a stepmother is hard; even if you won’t consider my feelings, you should leave for your own sake.”
Bai Xue felt for her family, but her family didn’t seem to care for her, and life had to go on; the house was already out of grain.
She couldn’t just feed her brother’s whole family for no reason, as they would just up and leave when it suited them, while she still needed to survive.
Her daughter, Bai Yanjiao, was already dissatisfied, complaining every day about not having decent als.
For the sake of Yanjiao, she couldn’t let her family stay any longer!
What’s more, they couldn’t be allowed to stay!
Bai Jianshe was about to say sothing when he heard soone pounding on the door outside, “Xue!
Xue, co out quickly!
There’s a crowd outside, with rolling pins and spades, asking where your house is!”
Upon hearing this, Bai Jianshe was instantly alard; perhaps he had slept with so family’s chaste daughter, and her relatives had co looking for him.
With this thought, he could no longer care about anything else, “Let’s just go!
Quick, pack up the stuff!”
With one sentence, the Bai Family knew what was happening and hurried to pack up their things.
Bai Jianshe stuffed his clothes in a bag, turned to Bai Xue and asked for money, “Sis, give so money!
We won’t even have money for a hotel to hide out.”
“You’ve eaten everything in the house, where would I get any money from!” Bai Xue frowned, reluctant to give any.
“Are you telling you have no money?
Isn’t all the money in the house in your hands?
Sis, hurry up and give it to !
Do you want to see your brother gambled away and killed with spades and rolling pins in his own ho?” Bai Jianshe said impatiently.
“Wait!” Bai Xue pulled out ten dollars from her pocket, money she had scrimped and saved for Bai Yanjiao to secretly buy so eggs in the afternoon to nourish her health.
Just as she was about to count it out, Bai Jianshe snatched it away, “Don’t count it!
Just give it all to !”
“Jianshe, that’s not okay!
You need to leave so!” Bai Xue said as she tried to grab it back.
Bai Jianshe didn’t say another word, picked up the luggage, and ran out.
“Hey!
Hey!” Bai Xue cried out, but she couldn’t keep him from leaving.
The family of four, as if fleeing for their lives, opened the door and ran out of the village!
After the Bai Family had finally left, An Hao didn’t even have a chance to catch her breath before people blocked her door.
It wasn’t strangers but the relatives of the chaste girl Bai Jianshe had slept with, each holding a spade or a rolling pin as they stord into her house.
“Bai Jianshe, get out here!” shouted a man with a scruffy beard at the forefront, who seed to be in his fifties, just like An Shuchao, and he stood with his arms akimbo, shouldering a spade.
As he shouted, those following him beca agitated and began pointing and cursing.
“Get out here!”
“Get out here!”
The throng of over twenty people made An Hao dizzy to see.
The Bai family really was relentless, eating his food, drinking his wine, taking his belongings, and leaving him with trouble as they left.
The furious crowd could easily beco a problem if a single wrong word was spoken.
“Gone mute?” The man glared at An Hao’s family, and when no one spoke, his eyes scanned over each person before settling on Bai Xue, “Are you Bai Jianshe’s sister?”
Bai Xue, usually a sharp-tongued woman, felt terrified by the scene, “I am…
I am…
Big brother, where are you from?
Why have you brought so many people to my house?”
