Chapter 259: I Can't Betray My Sister Bai
Today is the fourth day without any news from my aunt.
Bai Shanquan came to the cabin again.
But after half an hour, he didn't get anything out of the big guy and was about to leave angrily when he was stopped.
"Can you bring me some water? The lunch was too salty."
"You think you are here to have fun, do you have any sense of being a prisoner?" Bai Shanquan said angrily: "No!"
When the big guy heard this, he thought, are they trying to kill him with thirst?
He immediately said, "Does your salt cost money? You sprinkle it on the food and don't even give people water to drink. What? Are you trying to kill me with thirst?"
"My sister Bai said that we should treat the prisoners well."
The big guy discovered that the villagers from Taohua Village seemed very interested in what his Sister Bai had to say.
So every time he used Sister Bai as an excuse, these people would reluctantly agree, even though they were unwilling.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Bai Shanquan glared in dissatisfaction, but still went to fetch a bucket of water: "Drink, drink, drink, you won't die from drinking."
The big guy looked at the bucket in front of him, but didn't move forward. Instead, he looked at Bai Shanquan with suspicion: "You didn't poison it, did you?"
Bai Shanquan roared: "You are not worthy!"
As he spoke, he picked up the gourd ladle, scooped up a gourd of water, and started drinking it with gulps.
The food at lunch was indeed a bit salty, but since everyone was worried about my aunt, it was normal for Bai Duoxi to be absent-minded while cooking.
Seeing that Bai Shanquan had finished drinking, the big guy took the gourd ladle and muttered, "I'm telling you, eating too much salt is not good. This is what my sister Bai said. No matter what, you have to eat it in moderation."
"If you always eat a lot of salt like me, your body will be seriously ill..."
Bai Shanquan inexplicably felt that the big guy's words were somewhat familiar, but he was worried about the fact that there was no news about his aunt, so he didn't think about it too much.
Seeing that the big guy was still mumbling in a muffled voice, he said impatiently: "Drink your drink. You just talk nonsense all day long and don't say what you should say."
Having said that, Bai Shanquan walked out of the wooden house angrily, but he did not forget to lock the wooden house.
The big guy curled his lips and said, "That's right. Eating too much salt will increase the sodium ions in the body, causing excess water to not be excreted and accumulate in the body, causing edema... putting a burden on the kidneys. This is something my sister Bai specifically looked up on Baidu for me."
Perhaps knowing that the food in the morning was too salty, Bai Duoxi made an especially light dinner. The light-hearted guy couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Can you give me some salt?"
Bai Youli, who was delivering the meal, also learned about what happened at noon from Bai Shanquan. Hearing this, he sneered, "No, salt is too expensive."
Big guy: "Uh...how stingy."
"My sister Bai said that we should treat prisoners well. You really don't follow the moral code of martial arts..."
Every time the big guy would mention his so-called Sister Bai, but every time the villagers wanted to know more, he would keep silent, making the villagers so angry that they wanted to beat him up.
Bai Youli took a deep breath, gave a friendly smile, and coaxed: "If you tell me who the Bai Jie you mentioned is, and what you want, I will give it to you, how about that?"
"Not so good." The big guy shook his head: "There is no way I would betray my sister Bai."
"Besides, you may not be able to give me what I want."
When Bai Youli heard this, he immediately said, "Tell me what it is first. Whether it's gold, silver, jade, or food or drink, as long as you tell us, we will definitely find a way to get it for you."
Big guy: "I don't want these."
"My sister Bai and I are lost. Can you help me find my sister Bai?"
"Get out!" The smile on Bai Youli's face disappeared.
She got lost, and we still helped her find someone. Our aunt is missing and we haven't found her yet.
"If you don't want to say it, forget it. Why do you have to play tricks on us like this!"
The big guy looked at Bai Youli who was angry and left again, shook his head helplessly, and muttered: "Another one is angry and left." "He is so easily broken. Sister Bai said that people like him are emotionally unstable and can't do anything big." He was obviously telling the truth, so why didn't these people believe it?
These days, no one believes the truth.
The fifth day since Bai Tao had no news happened to be the first day of the new year.
Early in the morning, before daybreak, the people of Taohua Village started working.
The villagers, young and old, all put on bright red flowered jackets and began the sacrifice.
In the past, the villagers would at most kill two chickens and buy a pig's head, and pray for good weather, peace and health. Now they kill pigs and cows, and pray that God will bless my aunt to return safely as soon as possible.
Many people said silently in their hearts: As long as our aunt comes back safely, I am willing to give up ten years of my life.
As long as my aunt comes back, I don’t mind if I lose arms and legs.
I would exchange my failure to give birth to a son for my aunt's safe return.
If God could let my aunt return safely, I wouldn't even frown even if he took my life away.
The sacrifice ended at noon.
Bai Qiao entered the warehouse as usual. She thought it would be the same as before, and the brocade box on the table would still contain the stack of letters she had put in.
Unexpectedly, the letter that the villagers had sent to my aunt was gone, but in the brocade box lay a reply letter from my aunt.
Bai Qiao froze at the table in disbelief. It took her a while to come back to her senses. She happily grabbed the letter and rushed out of the warehouse.
"That's great, that's great, my aunt has replied, my aunt has replied..."
Except for those who had gone to the town to look after the shops, those who stayed in the village to work rushed over immediately when they heard the shout.
Bai Dashan: "Really? Did your aunt reply?"
"Is grandma okay?"
"What does the letter say?"
"Have you suffered these days, grandma?"
"Has grandma lost weight?"
The villagers were talking at once and were extremely anxious.
Bai Qiao shook her head and mumbled, "I, I don't know. I haven't read it yet. I took it out as soon as I saw the reply."
"What about the letter?"
"Here, here it is." Bai Qiao responded and quickly handed the letter to Bai Dashan: "Village Chief, please take a look."
Bai Dashan's hands were shaking as he received the letter. Great! My aunt finally replied.
Some elderly women had tears in their eyes. Finally there was news. God is watching over us.
"If we had known earlier, we should have slaughtered the pigs and cattle earlier."
As soon as these words came out, other people also echoed.
Yes, there was no news from my aunt for a few days, and then after the sacrifice was over, my aunt’s letter arrived. They didn’t believe that there was no connection between the two.
During the sacrifice just now, everyone had arranged people to go to the Snow Mountain Festival to look for people.
"Village Chief, please take a look at what the aunt said in the letter."
The wooden house where the big guy was imprisoned was also in the village. Bai Qiao was too excited just now and his voice was quite loud, so he also heard it.
The big guy was lying on the floor of the wooden house with his legs crossed. When he heard the news, he immediately jumped up and asked, "What? Their aunt was found?"
Sorry for keeping you waiting. Thank you for your company~~~
