Hearing Wu Wa’s voice, Bai Zhi finally felt the reality of her return.
She had really come back home and could now get a good night’s sleep.
"I’m fine; I’m just a little tired. Wu Wa, are you busy? Could you heat some water for me? I’d like to take a bath."
But she wanted to sleep even more.
Wu Wa was the first to discover that Bai Zhi had returned. Today being the weekend, Bai Xiang and Bai Fei were in charge of selling soap. Although they had started a collaboration, the factory was still under construction, so they were still making some to sell themselves.
It had been a long time since there had been any innovation. Bai Xin’s business was getting better and better; he was already planning to take over another store after the new year and then open a small one.
Bai Dan had been very busy recently, but he still made time to come back and train them, which made Bai Xiang and the others feel like crying.
Wu Wa quickly heated the water and was about to call Bai Zhi, but found that she had already fallen asleep.
Wu Wa then realized that Bai Zhi had gained a little weight recently; her small face finally had some flesh, and her hair, although messy, was no longer like weeds. Newest update provıded by 𝖓𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖑~𝖋𝖎𝖗𝖾~𝖓𝖊𝖙
She wiped Bai Zhi’s face with a towel and noticed her small face had a bit of rosiness, just like Grandpa Bai had said, Ah Zhi had gone to get her health in order.
When she awoke again, there was a layer of snow outside, appearing pure white in the distance, like the soft clouds at the edge of the sky.
Bai Zhi stepped outside and realized that her clothes had been changed, and the scent of food wafted from the kitchen.
Bai Zhi walked over and saw Wu Wa and Bai Xin cooking.
Bai Dan wasn’t home and Bai Xin hadn’t gone to the county town, just selling clothes in the town. Thinking that they didn’t know when Bai Zhi would be back, she and Wu Wa came back every day.
"Xingxing is awake, we can eat soon. Come over and try this cured meat."
At that moment, Bai Zhi’s nose felt a bit sour; this was the taste of home. Just as she was about to walk in, she heard a distant voice.
"Xingxing, come out, your Third Grandpa is here to see you."
This vigorous voice made Bai Zhi’s mouth twitch; it was like a nightmare.
"Xingxing, did I hear wrong? I thought I heard something about your Third Grandpa, wasn’t he..." long gone.
"Oh, he recently found Grandpa. No one would believe he’s not Third Grandpa based on his appearance."
Bai Zhi thought of Ancestor’s face and realized she really didn’t want to see him.
Wu Wa and the others believed if Grandpa was the Devil because they hadn’t met Ancestor—who was truly without conscience. Never mind, Bai Zhi rubbed her forehead; she didn’t really want to think about the past few days.
Bai Zhi opened the door, and indeed Ancestor was already dressed up nicely and brought lots of small packages with him.
"Third Grandpa, you’re back. Come in."
Bai Zhi led Bai Meng inside to sit for a while as she went to find Great Grandpa.
Before she could leave, Great Grandpa had already come over, having met him at the village entrance, his old tears flowing freely.
He walked right over and slapped Bai Meng.
That sound was so loud, not only was Bai Zhi stunned, but Bai Meng probably was too.
Because Bai Dan had forgotten to tell Bai Ming about this, he had always thought this person really was Third Grandpa Bai Shuang.
Indeed, naming in the Bai Family was quite casual.
Bai Zhi felt that Ancestor was about to explode. His face darkened, and he looked like he was about to hit someone, but looking around at everyone, he restrained himself and even had to call out.
"Brother," how could he suddenly have the crazy idea to pretend to be Bai Shuang?
Bai Ming had always been worried about this runaway brother. He glanced around; were those fellows about to come over and smack Bai Meng directly?
Bai Zhi saw something was amiss and quickly intervened.
"Great Grandpa, this is not good. This could cause trouble."
