Chapter 250: The ultimate goal is to separate
Mrs. Zhang said: “So, we must not participate in this matter. We must clear our connection in this, as to not get in trouble later on. Otherwise, our family will be unlucky.”
Bai Erzhu replied: “But if we don’t go, and they got some melons. We won’t get any share. What will we eat then?”
Mrs. Zhang gave him a bad look and pointed her finger at Bai Erzhu’s head: “When are you going to use your head? Can’t you think anything else with that brain of yours? What is actually there inside your head? A paste?”
Bai Erzhu didn’t understand the meaning of his wife. He scratched his head and said: “If you have something to say, just say it. I don’t understand what you are calculating.”
Bai Zhenzhu, who has been silent for a long time, opened her mouth: “Father, don’t you understand it yet? Just let them dig the melons, if something happened, let them face it on their own. If they succeed, as a part of the Bai Family, we will naturally have our share.”
Bai Erzhu frowned his eyebrows: “But, what if they refused?”
Mrs. Zhang coldly sneered and said. “Refused? That’s good. I wish they would refuse. I really want to separate with them. This is a good opportunity! Besides, all they do is just to lazying around. They let us work all day, while they only enjoy our hard work. Isn’t this the first time that they do something? And if we eat one or two melons, they won’t be willing? Well then, let’s separate and no longer bother each other.”
Bai Erzhu understood the meaning of his wife. She said a thousand words, but her ultimate goal is just to separate. The melons were just an excuse. She was sure that Mrs. Liu will be unwilling to share.
Seeing her husband not making a sound, Mrs. Zhang said again: “Bai Erzhu, do you have a brain? You have already seen your elder brother and his family’s attitude many times, but you’re still reluctant? Sister-in-law has always been lazy, but she likes to point her finger and giving orders. Brother-in-law looked very strong but has no initiative. Although he has a lot of strength, he is not willing to work. There is no difference between them. What I’m trying to point is, Dabao needs to get married, he needs money. Do you want to pay for his marriage? Xiaofeng needs money every year for his school. After the test, he will need to spend a lot more money right? Where will he get this money? Your niang have money in her box, but you know it’s only a little. When your elder brother’s business finished, do you think there will something left for us? What about Fugui’s study? What about Zhenzhu’s marriage? Before they spend all the money that’s left, let’s separate with your family, alright?”
Bai Erzhu was completely awakened by his wife’s words. After he listened to it, he nodded his head: “Right, right, that’s right. Why I never thought of this?”
Mrs. Zhang gave him a blank look: “What can you think with that pig-like brain of yours?”
Bai Zhenzhi released a sigh of relief. At last, they will separate. She was really glad.
As long as they separate and draw a clear line with her grandmother and first aunt, she can make peace with Bai Zhi. She can get close to Hu Feng with Bai Zhi’s help. As long as she can get close to Hu Feng, she was sure that she can get his attention… …

At night, Bai Dazhu took Bai Dabao to Bai Zhi’s melons field.
The night sky was beautiful. Today, it was the 13th day of the month, the moon will be full soon. Some part of it was still missing though.
At this time of the night, the moon was like a hanging lantern on top of their head. Although it was not as bright as the sun, their surroundings were visible.
“Father, I’m scared… …” Bai Dabao tightly grabbed the sleeve of his father as his eyes kept wondering in the surroundings in panic.
This was the first time he went out at night. The villagers usually won’t go out at night. No need to mention about the night, even during the daytime, they often heard people being bitten by poisonous snakes in the fields. Some people even have seen beast killing people.
