~8 min read 1,416 words

It was just that ever since returning from the Bai family, the Qin family hadn't mentioned the Bai family's old man's current wife, who was also Bai Jinyan's stepmother, Lu Yaqin, and that person hadn't come either.

Lu Qiaoge didn't let Little Cangcang pay deliberate attention, but Little Cangcang discovered it inadvertently.

Little Cangcang had now taken half of Jiangcheng, which was the north of Jiangcheng, as its own territory.

Actually, Lu Qiaoge wanted to tell it, it didn't matter; it could have as large a territory as it wanted, no one could stop it.

Now, relying on its intelligence and speed, there was no place it couldn't go.

The provincial courtyard had naturally been visited several times.

And then it learned about a matter that happened in the Bai family.

That was the day before Old Man Qin and the others went.

The cause of the matter was that Old Man Bai was preparing to retire to the second line, but he wasn't prepared to continue living in the courtyard.

However, Lu Yaqin firmly disagreed with Old Man Bai retiring to the second line.

She shouted at Old Man Bai with a sharp voice: "You surnamed Bai, what are you suddenly retiring to the second line for? Don't you know that when people leave, the tea goes cold? When you really retire to the second line, who will take you seriously?"

"Besides, you can't just arrange Bai Jinyan and the others well while ignoring Bai Xiaoze and me. You tell me, since I married you, what have I gotten from you?"

Old Man Bai didn't ask back at all, but directly said: "After you married me, you transferred from agricultural household registration to urban household registration and started eating commodity grain. You were originally a farmer who farmed, but now you are a national cadre, enjoying section-level treatment."

"After you married me, through tutoring and training, you rose from a primary school education to your current junior college education."

"After you married me, your parents entered the county food factory, your older brother and sister-in-law entered the commune, and your younger brother joined the army; he is now a company-level cadre."

"After you married me, which of your relatives, aunts, and uncles hasn't relied on my name to fish for benefits."

"Since you married me, my children have distanced themselves from me one by one. Except for necessity, they don't even appear in front of me, so as not to see your cold face."

"Of course, you will definitely say. You have times when you greet with a smile."

"I admit you have times when you greet with a smile."

"In places I can't see, what kind of face do you have?"

"Don't think I don't know."

"It's just that I can't argue with you because of this."

"And I want to reiterate one point: Bai Jinyan has studied well since she was a child. Becoming a scientific researcher and entering the Academy of Sciences was by her own efforts."

"Jinxin and Jinjun both entered the factory through recruitment exams and then walked to today step by step."

"Of course, they can have today's achievements, it must have my relationship. But I am their father; isn't this what should be?"

Lu Yaqin was stunned.

Looking at Old Man Bai with some disbelief.

It seemed like Bai Lao had said so many words to her for the first time.

Ever since she married him, the two of them had rarely communicated.

Even if they rarely communicated, she didn't regret it. Having the current life, what did losing some things count for?

But now Bai Xiaoze was still young and didn't have a clear goal; he himself didn't know what he wanted to do either.

If Bai Lao was going to retire now, people would leave and the tea would go cold; what would happen to Bai Xiaoze's future?

Bai Xiaoze was also his biological son.

Old people often say the eldest grandson and the youngest son.

How come it was different in the Bai family?

Everyone says everyone is equal, but equal my ass. If it wasn't for her former identity as a nanny, could Bai Xiaoze be secretly mocked?

Lu Yaqin had long forgotten what she was like before.

After all, no matter how others discussed and mocked her behind her back, on the surface, they were all respectful and polite, even flattering to her.

She also enjoyed these.

Anyway, no one dared to say anything to her face; behind her back, they could say whatever they wanted, she didn't care at all.

But if Bai Lao retired to the second line, it would be different.

Not to mention, he just said he was going to move away from here.

So she felt angry and aggrieved.

Originally, she was theorizing with Bai Lao like usual, and Bai Lao would also not pay much attention to her like usual.

Who would have thought he said so many words.

Lu Yaqin only felt her face suddenly flush red, feeling her face burning, as if she had been slapped a few times.

And at this moment, the skin on her body was also peeled off layer by layer, exposing everything she had to the public.

Lu Yaqin was suddenly full of tears.

She was ashamed and annoyed, and said with a trembling voice: "No matter what, I gave birth to a son for you. I am Bai Xiaoze's biological mother; how can you say that to me? Isn't Bai Xiaoze your son? He looks so much like you."

Old Man Bai said impatiently: "This is a matter I reported to the organization to decide. You have no right to participate, and I also hope you have a sense of proportion, don't say things you shouldn't say, and don't do things you shouldn't do; otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite to you."

Pausing for a moment, he continued: "Of course, if you really can't bear to leave this family courtyard, you can divorce me. As for how to stay, I think you should have a way."

The old man had many things to do and wasn't prepared to explain too much to Lu Yaqin.

This woman had fished for too many benefits from him.

She didn't agree with him retiring to the second line, not just for Bai Xiaoze; it was because she had a nephew who wanted to enter the ** Secretariat. He had been very busy recently, and she was becoming more and more arrogant.

After Old Man Bai finished saying these words, he entered the study and slammed the door shut with a bang.

Lu Yaqin was locked outside the door by Old Man Bai. She looked at the heavy wooden door, her eyes full of hatred.

It was really heartless, not considering Bai Xiaoze at all, and even less considering her.

They say a day as husband and wife is a hundred days, and a hundred days as husband and wife is like the deep sea.

How come there was nothing left when it reached her?

Lu Yaqin stood outside the study door, hating and angry and feeling embarrassed. Suddenly, she banged on the door.

She knew the old man could hear.

Lu Yaqin shouted through gritted teeth outside the door: "Don't treat me like a fool. For no reason, why did you suddenly want to retire to the second line? There must be a reason."

"So, you aren't doing it for your children, you're doing it for your grandson Qin Hengzhi, or even very likely for that food factory director Lu Qiaoge."

"Now many people are talking about Lu Qiaoge of the Xiang Yang Food Factory, and some people often mention that she is your grandson's partner."

"I also know that someone reported you for nepotism, forming cliques, and seeking benefits and opening green lights for your family members."

"You are worried about affecting your children. Surnamed Bai, you also know that I am a woman who can let go of everything. Otherwise, I couldn't have married you."

"Either you kill me, or you cut off the thought of retiring to the second line. In these three years, arrange Bai Xiaoze well."

"Otherwise, I will absolutely not let you off."

"Maybe by then, I will do something unimaginable."

Old Man Bai opened the study door.

Staring gloomily at Lu Yaqin, who seemed to no longer care.

But in his heart, he was very surprised, because a part of what she said was correct...
