Chapter 44
Bai Ping and An Yan approached, Bai Ping greeted everyone with a habitual smile, but was surprised to find that everyone looked a little weird, looking at himself and An Yan beside him with a weird look.He had always been thoughtful, and he was only puzzled, but he couldn't understand it. He just stretched out his hand and scratched his head in a daze.

But An Yan on the other side was sensitive enough to notice something was wrong. The villagers looked at her and Bai Ping with a sad expression.Something must have happened, and it must have had something to do with them.

Immediately, An Yan had a bad thought in his mind, and quickly pulled Bai Ping's arm, "Go quickly, let's go home and have a look." Before he finished speaking, An Yan pulled Bai Ping and ran quickly .

Bai Ping didn't know why, but he still followed An Yan.

Originally, the entrance of the village was quite a distance from the Bai family, but the two of them ran fast all the way, and within a short while they had arrived in front of the Bai family.

That ghost paper flying all over the sky, that low and suppressed cry, that deep sadness that seemed to have no breath.

An Yan seemed to have realized something suddenly, he staggered heavily, and fell to his knees on the ground all at once.

On the other hand, Bai Ping's face was pale at this moment, and he walked towards the house in a nonchalant manner.

After a while, I heard earth-shattering wailing from inside the house, "Father, father, father..."

It's uncle, it's uncle...

An Yan's mind was blank at the moment, only the word "uncle" kept turning around.She suddenly felt very empty in her heart, and there was a little barren color in her eyes.She got up slowly, but because of her weak footsteps, she knelt down on the ground again.She lowered her head and looked at her feet in a daze.

Why is she so, so sad?
Haven't you always been sober in your heart?Tell yourself to earn a bright future for the Bai family, in order to repay the kindness of the Bai family and repay the guilt for the Bai family.Then, everything will be cleared up, and I can live the free life I want.But why, now I feel so sad in my heart?
An Yan's face was almost pale, and he stretched out his hand to caress the position of his chest helplessly.There, it seems uncomfortable.

She stood up again, this time her legs and feet seemed to gain strength, and she finally stood up.Although it has a slender body, it seems that it will fall to the ground when the wind blows lightly.But those firm and heavy steps made people feel as tenacious as a mountain.

The persimmon trees in the yard had already grown a few green and shriveled persimmons, and the green bamboos in the corner became more and more lush.However, the scenery is still there, but the people are gone with the wind.

The wind blew gently, and her face was immediately icy and cold. She raised her eyes slightly, and her eyes were full of sadness.Reaching out her hand to touch the moisture on her cheek, she was crying.

"Father, wake up quickly and take another look at the child..."

The desperate weeping in the room is still there, and the sad and desperate breath is faintly flowing out, making people feel a suffocating void.

She didn't know how she walked into the room, she only knew that tears welled up in her eyes at the moment when the eyes were filled with white.

Uncle Bai Qi was being placed on the bed at this time, his face was slightly bruised, his brows were tightly furrowed, and the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed.

The eldest cousin, Liu's second cousin, Xiuniang, was completely naked at this time, kneeling on the ground with a desolate complexion, and her face was full of despair.Especially Xiu Niang, her eyes were dim, and she knelt there as if she had no life.Brother Qing, who was held in Xiuniang's arms, didn't know anything at this time, but opened a pair of big black eyes, looking at the world curiously.Fat Ya's small body was also kneeling beside her mother Liu with tears in her eyes.

As for Aunt Wang, she was kneeling at the head of the bed, her face ashen.

Bai Ping threw himself on his uncle Bai Qi, his voice mournful, his body trembling like the autumn wind.

An Yan suddenly found that two people were missing, his mother Bai Shi and second cousin Bai An.

She exited the house and looked for Mrs. Bai, and after a while she found Mrs. Bai cooking in the kitchen.

After a few days of seeing each other, Bai's body became weaker and weaker, his whole body was broken, and his complexion was as pale as paper.Even so, Mrs. Bai was still dragging her broken body, busily cooking food for everyone in the kitchen.

Looking at such a scene, An Yan felt unspeakable sadness welling up in his heart, and the tears that had been so hard to stop almost burst out of his eyes again.She always thought that although she was not decisive enough, she was still strong and open-minded enough.But at this moment, she realized that she still had such a weak and sentimental side.When facing the impermanence of life, she was equally at a loss and suffering.

"Mother..."

An Yan stood at the door of the kitchen, his voice was as soft as the wind blowing.But Bai Shi seemed to be struck by lightning, all movements stopped in an instant.Mrs. Bai turned around slowly, looked at her daughter whom she had not seen for a few days, suppressed the tears that had been held back for many days, at this moment it seemed that she had found an outlet, and slowly overflowed her eyes.

"Jinxiu, you're back."

It was just a sentence, which made the two of them feel as if they were separated from each other.

When she went, the Bai family was full of hope and was looking forward to creating a better future with everyone.But what comes back here is that things are different and people are different, and the entire Bai family has fallen into deep grief.

"Mother, what happened?"

Hearing this, Bai couldn't help covering her mouth with her hand, and then burst into tears.An Yan knew that Bai Shi's health had never been good, so he hurried over to help her, and reached out to pat Bai Shi's back lightly.

"Mother, you should take care of your health."

Apart from saying this, An Yan didn't know what he could say or do at this moment.

Bai-shi leaned on An Yan's body and cried for a while. After recovering, Bai-shi told what happened intermittently.

It turned out that on the day An Yan and Bai Ping left, a major event happened in Hsinchu Academy.

That is, Bai An was reported for theft, which caused a great commotion in the academy.As soon as Bai Qi and Wang heard the news, they rushed to Hsinchu County immediately.By the time the two arrived at Hsinchu Academy, Bai An was already kneeling at the entrance of the academy with injuries all over his body.

Bai Qi and Wang immediately stepped forward to understand the situation. It turned out that Wu Kai, the young owner of Qingfenglou, reported to the academy that Bai An had stolen his money.The academy expelled Bai An from the academy on the grounds that there were all personal and material evidence.What the dean of the academy meant was that Bai An was a student of the academy after all, so he couldn't bear to send him to the officials for further investigation.As long as Bai An gets Wu Kai's understanding, then this matter will be turned into a big deal, and a small matter will be turned into a small one.

But Bai An couldn't accept this result at all, he studied hard, and prepared to participate in this year's Autumn Festival full of fighting spirit and confidence.But now, he was going to be accused of stealing, so his official career was over from now on.Such a result is definitely a heavy blow to him or the Bai family.
