Chapter 75 -75: Break and You Can Still Jump

Aunt Niu couldn’t stand it any longer and instantly pulled Bai Zhi behind her for protection, glaring at Bai Ye as she began to yell.

“Aunt Niu, didn’t you see? Bai Zhi injured my foot.”

Bai Ye was super frustrated, Aunt Niu had clearly seen everything, but she still protected Bai Zhi.

“I did see, and it was actually you who twisted your foot. Bai Zhi kindly tried to fix it for you, and you still pushed her. It really seems like you and the others must be bullying Bai Zhi behind my back. Bai Zhi, let’s go, I’ll walk you home.”

While saying this, Aunt Niu wanted to take Bai Zhi home, forcing Bai Dan to come looking.

She is typically not afraid of trouble and loves to be involved in drama.

Bai Zhi silently pulled her hand back; although she had wanted to deal with Er Bai secretly, it didn’t mean she wanted Aunt Niu to make a big scene.

Are the Braised Pork Intestines not fragrant enough, or is the bun not tasty? There’s no need.

“Aunt Niu, it’s okay, I won’t blame my brother. He was just in too much pain, it wasn’t on purpose.”

While saying this, she even winked at Bai Ye, but her eyes carried a tone of sarcasm.

It was as if to say, see, I can play this game too.

Bai Ye was so angry he felt like vomiting blood; the more pitiable Bai Zhi’s expression, the more helpless and vulnerable her voice sounded.

Like a poor little thing that had been bullied.

“He doesn’t act like it, he looks like he’d devour you! No, I can’t be at peace, I’ll walk you to the street corner, okay?”

Though Aunt Niu had never had a good reputation, she indeed disliked Bai Ye’s behavior.

And Bai Zhi, she was just a bit too weak.

“Aunt Niu, how can you blatantly lie like that? It’s obviously Bai Zhi who wanted to hurt my foot.”

Bai Ye was resentful, at that moment he even thought his foot was going to break.

“If it was broken, could you still be jumping up?”

Aunt Niu sarcastically looked at Bai Ye, this child really could lie with his eyes wide open.

“I…” Bai Ye was at a loss for words, now it seemed like nothing was wrong at all.

“Bai Zhi, let’s go.” Aunt Niu didn’t even want to talk to them anymore.

“Thank you, Aunt Niu.”

That would be great, she was going to eat something delicious now.

She’d really given it her all just now, making sure Bai Ye would never forget.

Bai Zhi felt that these kinds of tactics could be used more often, they were quite effective. No wonder they always treated the original owner like this in the past.

Clearly, it was all Bai Zhi’s doing, but in a minute, it all became someone else’s, others’ mistakes also became the original owner’s.

Turns out, blocking Bai Ye’s reconciliatory words and leaving him speechless felt pretty good.

She walked a few steps, then Bai Zhi stopped.

“Why aren’t you walking?”

“I’m saying goodbye to them.”

Bai Zhi smiled sweetly, immediately ran to Bai Ye’s side, and leaned close to his ear.

“Kid, don’t mess with me, or I’ll make sure you’re topsy-turvy. How can you never learn?”

In Bai Zhi’s eyes was a cold disinterest, and her mouth twisted into a smirk that made Bai Ye’s heart sink.

He looked so small and thin, like he could be pushed over with one hand, where on earth did all that strength come from?

“What do you mean, why are you so strong?”

Bai Ye, utterly confused, just blurted it out.

At this question, Bai Ye himself was stunned, while Bai Zhi’s gaze grew even colder.

“You’ll know once you go carry the corn and pigweed.”

After saying that, Bai Zhi turned and walked away, not forgetting to look back at the ground with a tinge of heartache.

“Ah, brother, your clothes need to be washed again. I’m going home to eat, goodbye.”

Bai Zhi simply followed Aunt Niu without looking back.

Bai Yu hadn’t said a word from start to finish, but that didn’t mean he was calm; he was just enduring.

He couldn’t beat Bai Zhi now, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t in the future. The memory of Bai Zhi breaking his arm was clear in his mind—the feeling of helplessness and despair as he watched helplessly, unable to control anything. Once was enough.

It was something he would remember for the rest of his life.

As for Bai Zhi, she didn’t care. They had never gotten along, so what was there for her to be afraid of?

“Brother, what should I do? I need to wash them again.”

Bai Ye was truly the most unlucky one—he was in pain both physically and emotionally. He had to wash the clothes again. Although playing with water was refreshing at this time, it was tiring to squat all the time, and it made his back especially sore.

“You go wash; I’ll go back first to help cook.”

Bai Yu nodded faintly, took his wooden basin, and left without any hesitation, leaving Bai Ye feeling cold inside. It was just too bad that he wouldn’t wait for him.

He couldn’t beat Bai Zhi, couldn’t argue with his big brother, and now even his clothes were against him. It was just too heartbreaking.

At the crossroads, Bai Zhi parted ways with Aunt Niu. She was certain that the news of Bai Ye and Bai Yu bullying her would spread by tomorrow.

Aunt Niu, seeing Bai Zhi’s forced smile, felt truly sorry for her.

But Bai Zhi wanted to say that she was actually happy.

Back home, she even ate an extra bun.

The bun was particularly delicious, full of sweet corn flavor. Paired with the Braised Pork Intestines, the Sichuan peppercorns and chili perfectly completed it.

The intestines were soft and chewy with each bite.

Spicy and tingling, the more she ate, the more she craved. Each mouthful made her want another bite of bun—it was truly irresistible.

Even Bai Dan and Bai Ming had more than usual.

The leftovers were simply placed in a cabinet—made of bamboo, it was well-ventilated so leaving them overnight wasn’t a problem.

That evening, the grandfather and granddaughter didn’t go out but sat in the courtyard counting money.

All in small denominations, it was a large pile.

Although they weren’t yet at the point of counting until their hands cramped, at least they had the idea to start counting, right?

“Grandpa, we’ll be better off in the future.”

Seeing his granddaughter’s happy smile, Bai Dan felt a tinge of sorrow for the first time because the little amount of money they had was hard-earned by Xingxing.

“Yes, with Xingxing, Grandpa will definitely do better.”

Bai Dan patted Bai Zhi’s head. Xingxing was so good, he had to live a few more years, to give her support.

He also wanted to see Xingxing go to college, get a secure job, have something to rely on, so he could then go meet his wife.

Her parents were just for show, so as a grandfather, he couldn’t be vague.

Bai Zhi counted all the money—they had 80 yuan in pure profit, which was quite good. She never dreamed of getting rich overnight but thought of building up slowly.

At least by the time she was in high school, she might have some savings and then could buy a house in the county for herself and her grandfather.

Yes, she now had a goal; Bai Zhi, you have to work hard.

In the past, Bai Zhi had similar goals, but by the time she bought the house, her grandfather wasn’t there anymore. Now that she had another chance, she was determined to seize it.

…

At dawn, as the sky began to show the first sign of light, Bai Zhi got up.

From now on, she would get up every day to practice; she was determined to thoroughly defeat Bai Yu and the others. After yesterday, Bai Zhi believed, they surely hated her even more now. She wasn’t scared; in fact, she was a little excited.
