And besides, even if I wasn't here today, wouldn't there be a second Bai Xinyi? Since their feelings for each other are already gone, can death really make up for everything? Isn't that just torturing the man, and using death to torture you relatives who still love her.
"As for your family's daughter, although she has passed away, I'll say something unpleasant - she was an unfaithful and unfilial person."
When a mother's own children have not yet established their own families and careers, they are still running around looking for death in the midst of worthless things.
There is still a high hall in the world, she also has the nerve to shirk her own support responsibility and leave.
I think you all understand this matter today, it's just that my uncle and his ex-wife didn't have deep feelings for each other. If two people really had feelings for each other, no one could get in the way, right?
Besides, even if I wasn't here today, wouldn't there be a second Bai Xinyi? Since their feelings for each other are already gone, can death really make up for everything? Isn't that just torturing the man, and using death to torture you relatives who still love her.
You want to torment my aunt in this way, but in my opinion, isn't this also a form of self-torment for you?
Some things are better left unsaid, and past events are also something we didn't wish to happen.
Even if my aunt and uncle got divorced today, what's the big deal? Your daughter can't come back to life, and my uncle will find another woman anyway. Who knows what that woman will be like, whether she'll be as kind as my aunt, and whether you'll still have everything you have today?
"Think carefully in your own hearts, don't push honest people to desperation. Even a rabbit will bite when it's desperate. The person is already gone, let the deceased rest in peace. Those who are still alive should live well..."
The sound of the rain is not loud, but it's like a needle that pierces into the heart of everyone present.
Just now, the relatives from the bride's family were still in a state of righteous indignation, but now each and every one of them had an expression of despondency on their faces. Yu Xi's words struck at everyone's heart, not because she was speaking nonsense, but because everything she said made sense. The people present weren't fools, and if things continued like this, it would be really difficult to bring the situation under control in the future.
Seeing everyone not speaking, Yu Tong used another heavy hammer again.
"Everyone, if you want to settle accounts, you can't put the blame on my aunt's head. To say something so disrespectful, divorce is also a matter between my uncle and his ex-wife. If you really want to find the culprit, you should go and settle accounts with my uncle, he's standing right here, you..."
Yu Sai pointed at Qin Baihe's son with his finger.
"You're not thinking of avenging your mom, are you? Fine, go ahead and take a knife to kill the old man in your family right now. If you're still not afraid of making a big tragedy out of this, then just do as I say. Then let the police catch you and give you a bullet to the head. As for the rest, I won't say any more. If all of you think what I'm saying makes sense, hurry up and leave this place. From now on, go ahead and do whatever you want."
After saying so much, her own emotions were also somewhat agitated, and she leaned against the railing of the corridor and took a light breath.
The old lady wanted to say something, but she closed her mouth tightly again, and looked at her with a somewhat complicated gaze.
"We're walking..."
Qin Baichuan's daughter still had some hesitation.
"Grandma..."
The old lady sighed and took her granddaughter downstairs first, while the others, although somewhat resentful, had to follow behind.
Watching people disappear below, Yu Tong finally let out a sigh of relief, "Geez, I'm scared to death..."
Bai Wengui felt a pang of heartache as he picked up his daughter, "Meimei..."
Yu Tong burst out laughing, "Dad, don't blame me for saying this today. I don't want any of you to get hurt, but I also can't bear to see my aunt living like this anymore. This matter must be settled once and for all today, so..."
Bai Wengui knew what was on his daughter's mind, but he couldn't help feeling heartbroken that such a young child had to start taking care of her elders. With a child like this, what more could he ask for?
Bai Xinyi wiped away her tears. Before, she had thought that not having children was pitiful, but today she realized that with a nephew and niece around, even if she didn't have kids of her own, what could be done about it? Today, the two children's protection of their aunt was something she had witnessed firsthand.
Yu Sai said to Qin Baihe with some apology, "Uncle, I'm really sorry about earlier. I had no choice but to say that. Otherwise, you and my aunt would still be disturbed by them. Now that this is out in the open, they probably won't come again today."
How could Qin Baichuan blame his niece who had helped him and his wife out of trouble?
"Girl, thank you, Uncle. If it weren't for your words, our days would have continued to be difficult in the future. Alas, it's all my incompetence, not handling family relationships well, and making your aunt suffer with me."
Things have come to this, and it's no use blaming anyone. From now on, the couple should live a good life, that's the real thing.
"Brother-in-law, what are you talking about? We're all relatives, we can't turn against you, who else can we turn to? You two haven't eaten yet, why don't we go downstairs and have a snack first, then I'll talk slowly when we get back."
The couple had originally planned to cook a good meal to entertain their young brother-in-law, who came from afar, but unexpectedly the meal was not cooked and they made such a fuss.
Qin Baichuan felt a bit embarrassed, "Wen Li, we made fools of ourselves today, let's go, brother-in-law is treating you to dinner."
"Hey, brother-in-law, don't be in a rush. Let's get our stuff inside first."
Bai Xinyi came over and hugged the two siblings, "Yu Tong, Hao Ran, Auntie is really happy today, my nephew and niece can protect their elder sister."
Bai Haoran scratched his head awkwardly, "Auntie, don't be sad, when I grow up, I'll definitely not let others bully you."
Yu Tong stretched out his small hand to wipe away the tears flowing from the corner of Bai Xinyi's eyes, "Auntie, you're not alone, we're here with you. From now on, you have to be stronger too, there's no hurdle in this world that can't be overcome."
Bai Xinyi asked with a mixture of joy and tears, "Little girl, can you tell your aunt who taught you the words you just said?"
Bai Xinyi was not surprised, this little niece actually said such words to those people without any fear, thinking about it, she herself probably didn't have the ability to say such standardized words.
Yu Yu crouched on her shoulder, "Auntie, since you left, my second uncle and dad have bought me a lot of books. All the principles I've learned are from those books."
Isn't there a saying that goes like this, "In the book there is a jade-like beauty, in the book there is a house of gold. The more you read, the more you'll understand." But, Auntie, it was you who led my brother and me into this world in the first place. If it wasn't for your guidance, we wouldn't have learned so much either.”
A warm and comforting phrase that made Bai Xinyi feel both relieved and happy. As long as the nephews understood their own good, that was enough.
Wiping away tears, she led her brother and sister into the house to wipe off their sweat. In just a short while, the siblings' bodies were all drenched in sweat.
Yu Sai took a look at her aunt's home, which was nicely decorated and gave off a warm and cozy feeling. This must be all thanks to Bai Xinyi's touch.
The house is a three-bedroom one-hall, looks very big. After wiping the bathroom clean, Bai Xinyi took out new clothes she bought for them and wanted to change into them.
Yu Tong smiled and took out two sets of spare clothes from her bag.
"Auntie, don't wear your new clothes, they'll get dirty on the way back. I brought some spare clothes, just wear these instead."
Bai Xinyi didn't expect her niece to become more and more like a grown-up as she grew older, even thinking of this.
"Alright kids, let's put on the new clothes you brought and take the old ones back home."
"Hey, sis, are you okay?"
Xin Yi smiled and shook her head, "Sister is fine, with all of you here, sister isn't afraid of anything..."
Bai Wenlie patted her back, "Sister, don't think about anything, just live a good life from now on. We brothers will support you from behind. By the way, this medicine was obtained by me from a friend."
"I heard it's been passed down through generations, you try it out and see if it works well. If not, at least it won't harm your body, just be careful not to waste it, it's hard to get from others, one spoonful at a time until you finish."
Bai Xinyi understood that her younger brother gave her the medicine for what purpose, gave Bai Wenli a grateful look, put away the things, and the couple took their family out.
Seeing the neighbors around looking at Bai Xinyi with strange eyes, Yu Tong pulled her hand up and lifted her head.
"Auntie, don't mind their gaze. As time goes by, people will naturally understand what kind of person they are. Besides, you two are living your own lives behind closed doors, don't live according to others' facial expressions."
Bai Xinyi was really a bit ashamed this time, having lived for so long, how come she still didn't have a child to rely on, her originally lowered head raised again.
Bai Haoran clapped his hands on one side, "That's right, my aunt was originally good-looking, why bow your head, you didn't even lose your wallet."
After being said by her little nephew, Bai Xinyi's mood improved a lot, and she happily pulled the hands of two people to follow behind her husband and brother.
Qin Baihe originally wanted to take them to a better restaurant, but was persuaded by Bai Wenli.
"Brother-in-law, isn't eating just about filling our stomachs? No need to go somewhere expensive. Let's find a small shop and have two cold dishes with some noodles soup, that's good enough. In the summer, we don't have much appetite anyway, something light is actually more appetizing. Listen to me, let's go to this place."
A small but clean-looking store of Baiwenliexuan.
Several people were also very hungry, so they ordered food that could be prepared quickly and fill their stomachs.
After eating his fill, Yu Rong finally had the energy to argue with others, which wasn't just a matter of talking back, but also physically exhausting.
"Girl, come and drink some soda water to relieve the summer heat. Later when we go back to your aunt's house, I'll bring you popsicles."
Bai Haoran felt a little envious, "Your family has already bought a refrigerator, but when will our family be able to buy one?"
Bai Xinyi smiled as she saw the child's envious gaze.
"Brother, why do we need a refrigerator at home? The voltage over there is unstable, and the power often goes out. Besides, winters are so long where we live, having a fridge doesn't make much sense. We can just buy fresh meat from the minority villages nearby."
