Chapter 1159: I Kneel for My Brother

“It’s useless for you to go home like this.” Bai Zhun held Little Baldy in his arms as he applied medicine on the child. His eyes revealed a depth that did not match his age.

Xiao Lin was smart to begin with. “You mean you want to use some tricks?”

“Yes.” Bai Zhun’s voice is very faint. “I’ll take care of the Lin family. Hailou, go home first and bring some steamed buns that Auntie Wang made. Don’t go out even if Uncle Li knocks on the door. Persist until the afternoon and don’t eat. Just say that you have no appetite because you’re mad at the Zhang Family. Then tell Uncle Li that the Zhang family has been in contact with the Sun family in the south recently, wanting to remove some of the veterans’s subsidies. “…”

“F * ck! How did you know about this?” Little Gangster Li was utterly impressed. He could only hear his father discussing these kind of things with other adults. How did Master Bai Know? But his father hated people who were harsh on veterans the most.

Bai Zhun lowered his eyes and blew on Little Baldy’s hands. Seeing that the child drawing back in pain, his hands also tightened. “This will not be forgotten just like that.”

Xiao Lin understood what Bai Zhun meant. He did not continue speaking and brought Little Gangster Li out of the door.

Since noon that day, the Xiao and Li families began to get anxious.

Especially the two grandmothers.

“What’s going on? Why isn’t my grandson eating anything?” Little Gangster Li’s grandmother, too, used to have a rank in the military. Usually, her grandson ate like he was at war, but why was he so listless today?

Grandma Li’s first thought was to ask Little Gangster Li’s father, “Tell me, did you hit Hailou again? !”

“How could I dare to hit your precious grandson?” Little Gangster Li’s father was also puzzled. “What’s going on with that kid today? What mischief is he up to now?”

Grandma Li slapped the back of her son’s head. “How could you say that about your son? Why don’t you go up and ask!”

Little Gangster Li’s father thought that he had to ask. If he didn’t ask clearly, the Li family wouldn’t be able to have peace.

When there was a knock on the door…

Little Gangster Li was happily eating meat buns. When he heard his father’s voice, he choked. Only after drinking three big mouthfuls of mineral water, did he regain his breath by forcefully patting his chest.

“Phew, I almost choked to death,” Little Gangster Li muttered as he quickly packed the remaining buns into plastic bags and stuffed them into the drawer. He even began fanning himself. When the taste was gone, he opened the door from the inside.

As soon as Little Gangster Li’s father entered, he saw his son leaning against the wall, imitating Lin Daiyu. He still looked a little sick.

“Don’t you have a fever?” Little Gangster Li’s father examined him from head to toe. “Why is your face so red?”

That was because he choked on water, but afraid that his father would find out, Little Gangster Li immediately changed the topic. First, he told him everything that happened this morning, then he told him about the exploitation of veterans.

Little Gangster Li’s father immediately slammed the table and stood up. “Soldiers, come back to the army with me!”

Little Gangster Li knew that Bai Zhun’s method was working. He finally did not have to pretend anymore. He went downstairs and began to gobble down the food.

Grandma Li was a sensible person. She knocked on the table and asked him, “Tell Grandma the truth. Did that kid from the Bai family tell youth do this?”

“Yup.”

Grandma Li was first stunned when she saw her grandson admit it so readily.

Then she heard Little Gangster Li say, “When we came back, Bai Zhun said that if Grandma asks, just tell her the truth. He said that you feel sorry for us children.”

“This little fox.” Grandma Li smiled. “Aren’t you afraid of being betrayed by others?”

Speaking of this, Little Gangster Li decided it was time to give her Grandma a little lecture. “Grandma, first of all, I think Bai Zhun didn’t do anything wrong. You can’t compare him with me. I have a father and mother, and you and Grandpa by my side. He only has Grandpa Bai. Grandpa Bai is still in the army and isn’t even here all year round. Now that he finally has a sister, his sister went out to buy breakfast for him, but she got targeted and called a country bumpkin. Who can tolerate this? I can’t be like Bai Zhun, who can control the situation, but what I admire most is his dedication to protecting his own people! Also, even though Bai Zhun was a little fox, he wouldn’t sell me out. Grandma, do you still remember that one winter when we went out to play, and the river froze, and I fell into a hole in the ice? If Bai Zhun hadn’t grabbed me and refused to let go, I wouldn’t even be here right now. At that time, everyone else had run away, and him and Xiao Lin were the only ones left. We were so young back then, not even four years-old. Xiao Lin was scared silly, and he kept crying while pointing at me. Only Bai Zhun didn’t let go even though the ice was about to crack. Grandma, you also know that I don’t have many things in my heart. I think this is good. Let Bai Zhun worry about the complicated stuff. I’ll fight whenever and wherever he wants me to. With him behind me and giving me guidance, I can rest assured. He’s also good to our Li family. He never thinks that we’re barbaric, unlike some people who show respect for us and have military merits but always laugh at me for being wild. Bai Zhun said that it would be good for people like me to join the army. I want to be a general in the future. I, Xiao Lin, and Bai Zhun, the bond between the three of us will always be like an iron triangle. This is not just casual talk.”

After Little Gangster Li finished speaking, he began to swallow big mouthfuls of the white rice.

Grandma Li was left speechless for a long, long time.

On second thought, wasn’t this what they wanted?

A hundred years later, her grandson would be able to protect the country, and someone else would be able to protect her grandson.

With such a solid relationship between the three children, they could also rest assured.

Although the situation on Xiao Lin’s side was different, the result was the same.

Before the two women who had bad-mouthed Bai Zhun knew what was going on, they were called to have a “talk” with their husbands.

In the afternoon, Old Master Bai rushed back from outside the city with a very bad look on his face.

“Bai Zhun, who allowed you to draw your gun? Kneel!”

Bai Zhun was still holding Little Baldy in his arms. He looked up at Old Master Bai and said, “Grandfather, go and call the Lin family over first. Then I’ll kneel.”

“You’re really provoking me now!” Old Master Bai slammed on his military cap.

Little Baldy, who had been asleep, opened her eyes in an instant. She knew that something was wrong and immediately fell off the sofa with a grunt. “Grandpa Bai, I’ll kneel on behalf of Brother.”

Old Master Bai looked at the child and the anger in his heart lightened. “Why are you kneeling? Make your brother kneel!”

“Brother drew his gun because of me.” Little Baldy’s palms were scalded. When she was asleep, Bai Zhun had just wrapped them with a white bandage. Now, she’s like a little panda. “I shouldn’t have lived and ate in the Bai family for free. This way, people won’t say anything about me, and Brother won’t get angry. If Brother doesn’t get angry, Grandpa Bai won’t get angry. I have already decided. When brother falls asleep, I’ll go and settle the score with those people. I’ll beat them up directly. In the future, I’ll settle my own matters by myself. I won’t drag brother into the mess. I don’t even know why, but in the end, I was the one who being comforted.”

Speaking of this, Little Baldy even frowned in distress. She said seriously, “In the future, I must change my habit of taking afternoon naps. It always makes me miss important business!”

Vice commander Zhang: … Your so-called business is to comfort the young master and then go beat people up? !
