Chapter 297 Imposter
A few days later, the little boy came back from school very excited, "Mother, mother, Da Lin and Xiao Lin's father was really beaten."
Yu Zhi was arranging flowers, when he heard this, he put down the scissors in his hand, and asked casually, "Who beat you?"
"Dalin and Xiaolin's uncles, mother, they have three uncles. Xiaolin said that his elder uncle and second uncle didn't do anything, and it was his third uncle who beat him. His third uncle was so strong that he knocked his father down with one punch. The little brat gestured joyfully, and finally said regretfully, "Why don't I have an uncle?" He wasn't greedy either, as long as he had one.
Yu Zhi is in a complicated mood, this unlucky boy, does he just want your father to be beaten? Even if you have an uncle, do you think he dares to beat your father? Didn't you see that your uncle and second uncle are a little cowardly in front of your father?
"How did Dalin and Xiaolin solve the problem of studying in the end?" Yu Zhi asked.
The little boy said: "Of course I continued to study. The three uncles of their family and Dalin even went to the school to find Mr. Kang. Mr. Kang praised Dalin and Xiaolin, saying that they have talents. As long as they don't get distracted, they can still pass the exam to be a scholar." Xiaolin secretly told me that his grandfather scolded his father when he got home, and his stepmother was scolded by his grandmother. Now his father dare not scold them easily." The boy is very happy for his good brother .
"Why did his grandfather ignore it before?" Yu Zhi was curious.
The little boy said: "His family is separated. Dalin and Xiaolin's father is the youngest son, and their grandparents lived with the uncle. Dalin said that his grandfather and grandmother didn't like the one his father married, and they didn't go to his house very often. .”
Yu Zhi was thoughtful, and took the opportunity to teach him, "You see, you still have to be able to do it yourself at any time. You can do it for a while just relying on external force, but you can't control it for a long time. Just like Da Lin and Xiao Lin, if their homework is not good, Will his grandfather and grandmother support them so resolutely? After all, the stepmother also gave birth to two boys, and even if they don't like the daughter-in-law she married later, she will also give birth to their grandson!"
Seeing the obvious confusion in the little boy's eyes, Yu Zhi continued: "They are also grandsons, so they shouldn't treat each other too favorably. In the hearts of the elders, they are brothers in the same family, and everything is going well together. Besides, their father just doesn't let Da Lin Kobayashi studying is not ill-treating them."
The little boy's eyes lit up, and he blurted out, "It's like grandfather always wanted to make peace between father and uncle?"
"You still know He Xi Ni?" Yu Zhi was surprised.
"Of course I understand!" The little brat looked proud, "They pretended that I didn't understand, and they didn't avoid me when they were talking. I think my grandfather probably knew that my second uncle was not very smart, so he always wanted Dad to help me. He, dad just hums like this, mother, I will teach you, dad has this expression."
The little boy squinted his eyes, narrowed his eyes slightly, and drooped his face... He interpreted the word "disdain" very well. Not to mention, he really looks like his father.
"My father is definitely not willing."
Yu Zhi was overjoyed, "Zi Er, how do you know your father is not willing? After all, they are brothers."
"It's not a mother. My second uncle has wronged me and quarreled with our family. Can dad help him?" The little brat didn't think so, and used himself as an example, "Just like me, my classmates in school bullied me. , He still speaks bad things about me behind my back, he still wants to copy my homework, he wants to eat ass, there is no door."
Yu Zhi was even happier, "Yes, yes, yes, you're right! You're so smart!" She put her arms around the little boy, thinking that the boy was a villain, "That's right, boy, let's do it. A civilized child can't swear."
"Understood." The boy acted cutely. He was like this in front of his mother, even in front of his father, he carried it. Who would not praise him as a sensible and polite boy?
While the mother and son were chattering, Wen Jiuxiao came back, and when he saw that his son had usurped his wife again, he quietly drove him away to do his homework.
Is there something wrong with him driving his son away? Couldn't it be that he wants to get tired of being with her? Wen Jiuxiao hesitated for a moment, but still nodded, "Well, Zhou Mao is back."
Zhou Mao? who? Yu Zhi looked over in puzzlement.
Wen Jiuxiao reminded, "Bai Youfu."
Yu Zhi understood in seconds, Zhou Mao was the person sent by Wen Jiuxiao to confirm whether Bai Youfu was in exile, "Back so soon?" Yu Zhi was surprised.
You must know that traveling in ancient times was not as convenient as in modern times. Five hundred miles is nothing to modern people, but in ancient times, traveling five hundred miles took several days. In addition, I still need to inquire about some news, so it will take a month to go back and forth, right?
"It's not too late. It took more than two days to inquire about the news." Wen Jiuxiao said, "Do you want to see me? I'll let him come over."
Yu Zhi thought for a while, then refused, "No need, he's tired from running around for days, let him have a good rest. You just tell me the result, is that **** Bai Youfu going to kill himself?" , the leg was broken, so good at being a monster, it is conceivable that he will not be honest in the second half of the journey.
Wen Jiuxiao shook his head slowly, "I didn't see anyone, there was no such person as Bai Youfu in the entire exile area, and it doesn't mean that there is no one named Bai Youfu, but this Bai Youfu is a strong man, not Bai Youfu of the Duke of Bai's mansion at all."
"Impersonator! Bai Guogong really dare? Five hundred miles is not too far away, he is not afraid of being found out? Also, where is the real Bai Youfu?"
"I don't think Duke Bai knows about this. He's not so stupid." He has already taken care of everything, and sent someone to take care of him with money on his back. Bai Youfu won't suffer a lot, and Duke Bai won't be fooled into cheating. King's crime.
"Who would that be?"
"It is very likely that Mrs. Bai, Mrs. Bai, did business behind her back."
"Huh?" Yu Zhi was even more surprised.
"Zhou Mao was afraid of showing his traces, so he didn't dare to go to the local government, but he found out that the local county magistrate's ancestral home is from Changnan, and Mrs. Bai's natal family is from that place."
"You mean Mrs. Bai knows the county magistrate?"
Wen Jiuxiao nodded, "Even if you don't know each other, there are some connections."
Yu Zhi's heart moved, "Could it be that Bai Youfu just went to Changnan?"
"No." Wen Jiuxiao said with certainty, "Changnan is too far away, Mrs. Bai is reluctant to let her grandson suffer. The ancestral home of the Bai family is possible, and it is only three or four hundred miles away from the place where they were exiled."
Yu Zhi’s heart moved again, “Then did you choose such a place on purpose when you were exiled?”
"It's hard to say." Wen Jiuxiao also thought it was too coincidental. After a pause, he said again: "Zhou Mao still attracted the attention of others when he was inquiring about the news. He didn't dare to go to the ancestral home of the Bai family, so he came back first. Anyway, he is investigating the Duke of Bai, and his ancestral home cannot be ignored. I'll send someone over there."
Yu Zhi nodded, she always felt that as long as she found the thread in the fog in front of her, everything could be solved easily.
