I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 217 I can’t tell you the pain

Baiyunxi turned his head and looked at Baiyunsong at the door, his eyes were surprised.

 “How come my cousin is free to come over?”

Bai Yunsong stood at the door with his hands behind his back, his face a little unnatural, and he didn't know whether it was because of a guilty conscience or something else. When he saw his cousin's cool eyes, he felt that he lacked confidence.

 “My cousin came in to talk.”

 Watching his two nephews and wives serving him tea and water, Bai Yunsong coughed.

 “Cousin, about that house...”

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Baiyun Xi.

“Cousin, there’s no need to mention the house anymore. I’ve told my sister-in-law a long time ago that the house has nothing to do with us. It doesn’t matter whoever buys it. Besides, my cousin didn’t buy the house for himself.”

“Now everyone in the village knows that my cousin is an affectionate and righteous brother. I just told my daughters-in-law about you, and they admire you in their hearts.”

Being praised by his cousin in front of his face, Bai Yunsong felt even more guilty. He has not been out for the past few days.

He felt aggrieved and anxious at the same time. Because of the house, Mrs. Zheng was at odds with him every day, crying and scolding him, saying that she was unwilling to give up the house to her second brother's family.

He also said that after Anbang gets married, if he gives birth to two or three grandchildren, the house will come in handy.

Even though he wanted to do this, the public opinion in the village made him breathless. His cousin's old house was like a hot potato, and he felt uncomfortable even if he lost it.

For this reason, his father also talked to him separately. If he wanted to suppress public opinion and keep his reputation, only by giving the yard to the second brother's family can he calm the speculation in the village.

Sure enough, as soon as the news was revealed, the trend in the village changed.

How did you scold him with his teeth before, how can he boast now.

 After this morning, the second brother led the whole family to thank him.

By now, the second brother and sister had taken the children to clean the yard. Mother Anbang couldn't tell her the pain, and she was still lying on the bed panting.

At this moment, Mrs. Li placed a bowl of sugar water in front of Bai Yunsong and added with a smile.

“Uncle Datang, don’t you know that people in the village now regard you as a role model for their elder brothers? You also want to form a group and let those who are elder brothers learn from you.”

Hearing Li's praise, Bai Yunsong twitched the corner of his mouth. The compliment made him a little swollen, made him bleed with heartache, and at the same time made him feel guilty.

 Because of the original intention of buying the house, I didn’t even want my second brother to live in it.

According to custom, after the death of an elder, the brothers divide the family. Except for the eldest son who stays at the old house, the rest of the brothers divide the family property and then buy a house.

 At that time, the village will allocate housing land and build a house for them to live in.

 The custom has always been like this, and my second brother is no exception.

 But now, because of the turmoil in his cousin's old house, he directly resettled his second brother's family. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had done something very depressing and embarrassing and had no place to complain.

Thinking of this, Bai Yunsong shook his head and looked at his cousin.

 “Ahem~, I have another thing to ask my cousin for help today.”

Baiyunxi raised his eyebrows,

"Tell me, cousin, you also know my current status. It is not convenient for me to have too much contact with outsiders. Moreover, I also have filial piety. It is good for others and ourselves to be more taboo."

Hold your ugly words upfront to avoid him making unreasonable demands.

 At this point, Bai Yunsong nodded understandingly.

“This matter shouldn’t be too difficult for my cousin. Do you still remember Chang Xiucai who was in charge of the private school?”
