Bai Feng shook his head and looked at the other photos. A family photo caught his eye.
"Hmm?" He was puzzled. He frowned as he tried to distinguish the appearance of the person on top of it.
The photo was an old black-and-white photograph. There were four people in total. Two middle-aged men and women were sitting in front of the photo while a sister/brother appears to stand behind it. They looked like a family of four.
The man sitting in front looked very familiar. Bai Feng rolled his eyes, unable to figure out what was going on.
At this moment, Bai Zhexi returned with the soy melon.
"Auntie, who's the man in this picture?"
Bai Zhexi moved closer to take a look, and her breathing paused for a moment before she said indifferently, "Oh, this is my father."
It was obvious that she didn't want to say more. Bai Feng's eyesight was very good.
With a "Oh," it looked at the basin in Bai Zhexi's hand. Inside was a fist-sized melon with a dark brown color unique to soy sauce.
"Bai Feng, I've brought back the soy melon. While you're eating, wash it with water and cut it into strips to eat." Bai Zhexi told her about the way the melons were eaten.
Bai Feng smiled and said, "Got that. You can tell that it's not bad with a glance."
It was probably very tasty. Otherwise, Wan Chao wouldn't be so stingy. Bai Feng smiled as it took the soy melon and left.
A group of children surrounded Bai Feng's car downstairs and scattered when they saw him coming.
Bai Feng drove the car all the way to the Beijing Hotel and headed straight for his brother.
"Hey, brother, guess who I just saw at Wan Chao's house?" Bai Feng shouted loudly.
On the way, he finally figured out who the man in the photo, that is, Bai Zhexi's father, looked like.
Bai Lanting, who was looking at the restaurant bill, raised his eyebrows and asked perfunctorily, without taking his eyes off the bill, "Who is it?"
Bai Feng did not care about his brother's perfunctory attitude and said while waving his arms around:
"There was a big picture frame hanging on the wall of her house, and there were a lot of them. I also saw a picture of Wan Chao'er when she was young, it was really cute, not like the sharp end of her head right now. Right now, she's just like a proud rooster, and the years are really like a pig slaughtering knife."
Bai Feng's way of speaking had no ends to it. It should have been talking about how Bai Zhexi's father, but now it wanted to talk about Wan Chao.
Bai Lanting casually replied with an "En."
Bai Feng continued, "But what I want to say is not Wan Chao'er, but Auntie Bai's dad. So she has a brother, and I don't know what that brother of hers is doing. Look at how embarrassed Chao'er is, the house is filled with pickles, there isn't even a place to eat.
Bai Lanting could not hold it in any longer and growled, "Get to the point!"
"What I want to say is that Auntie Bai's father, also known as Wan Chao's grandfather, looks really like our grandfather. No, he looks even more like our father from ten years ago."
Grandfather Bai passed away when he was seven or eight years old. The grandfather that Bai Feng remembered was an old man with wrinkles all over his face.
Bai Lanting paused for a moment, then raised his head to look at Bai Feng and asked seriously, "Really?"
"Well, I won't lie to you. The photo is on the wall of Wan Chao's house."
"Are you sure it's Auntie Bai's father?"
"Confirmed. Auntie Bai said it herself. Her father. But I saw Auntie Bai's expression that she did not really want to talk about it. I don't know if there are any secrets behind it." Bai Feng had a probing look on his face, causing it to look rather gossipy.
Seeing that his little brother was so excited, Bai Lanting looked at him as if he was a fool and said, "If I'm not wrong, Auntie Bai's dad should be our grandpa."
Bai Feng jumped in shock and opened its mouth wide. It pointed at the door, then pointed at itself.
"Are you joking?"
Bai Lanting shrugged and said lightly, "Then just take it as a joke."
Bai Feng was speechless. This was the only thing wrong with his big brother. He was always so boring.
He hurried over to Bai Lanting, looking anxious. "Tell me, what's going on? Wan Chao'er has really become our cousin? "How could I be so good at prediction?"
He remembered what he had said at the Glassworks House. He said he was the cousin of Chao'er.
Bai Lanting paused for a moment and thought deeply for a few seconds, then said, "Bai Zhexi isn't our aunt, but Wan Chao's grandmother is our grandmother."
Hearing that, Bai Feng widened his eyes.
Then, his eyes lit up as he guessed, "Could it be that Bai Zhexi was picked up from the outside by our grandmother?" Or did our grandma break off her legs and put on a green hat for our grandpa? "
Just thinking about it made his blood boil. I didn't expect his grandpa's generation to have something as juicy as this, it's enough for him to gossip for a while.
Bai Lanting frowned and said, "I don't know the specifics, but grandpa divorced our grandma. When dad was 18 years old, grandpa took dad and grandma took Auntie Bai. Don't spout nonsense, it's all the matters of our elders, don't you go to Auntie Bai's house and spout nonsense. "
Why was Bai Lanting so sure of this?
It turned out that once, he had brought home some sauces cooked by Bai Zhexi.
After tasting it, the old man did not say anything for a long time. Finally, he said, "It's very similar to your grandmother's craftsmanship."
Furthermore, he knew a little about his grandparents. Now that his younger brother mentioned that photo, Bai Lanting was sure that Bai Zhexi was the aunt that had left with his grandmother.
Bai Feng's eyes lit up. "I didn't expect that we were related by blood with Wan Chao'er, I have to properly manage this little girl from now on"
"She doesn't study well at such a young age, go to any nightclub, and she has a cold look on her face. She doesn't look like a little girl at all."
Seeing that his little brother was unreliable, Bai Lanting reminded him repeatedly, "Don't meddle blindly in these matters. Just take care of Auntie Bai and Chao'er in the future, don't leak any information."
"Why not?" Bai Feng did not understand, "If Wan Cha'er knew I was her cousin, then her expression would be interesting."
Bai Lanting was a bit tired. When would this little brother grow up?
"If you want to recognize someone, then our dad would have long recognized them. We're all living in Wutong County, and the place is so small, so there must be some gap inside. So, you don't need to trouble the elders."
Under Bai Lanting's repeated orders, Bai Feng unwillingly agreed and grumbled unwillingly, "Then, can't I teach Wan Chao'er well?"
However, in his heart, he decided that he would find a chance to secretly tell this to Wan Chao.
"That nightclub of yours should be opening soon. Hurry up and leave."
Bai Lanting finally sent Bai Feng away after a great effort.
