Huang Yu noticed Bai Zicheng's appearance and almost had the same thought as her husband. She then glanced between Bai Moye and Bai Zicheng. They looked alike.
Bai Zicheng smiled, "This is Brother-in-Law Xiao. Nice to meet you. I'm Moye's father. Thank you for taking care of my naughty boy all this time."
Huang Yu was a little dazed. She didn't think this was Moye's father. At least, she only thought this was her brother. However, Bai Moye had said that he was her eldest son.
Huang Yu nodded politely. She looked at her husband, who was busy gathering things. Huang Yu immediately helped Xiao Heng, and the two of them worked well together.
Bai Moye, who happened to see Xiao Li also arrive, immediately smiled. "Little Xiao Li."
When Xiao Li looked at Bai Moye and remembered the man's actions, she immediately blushed. Bai Zicheng, who was watching them, felt something was wrong with Xiao Li's demeanor. Bai Zicheng smiled, "This is Little Xiao Li. Very beautiful."
Although the villagers couldn't compare to city dwellers, Xiao Li was indeed beautiful. Her round eyes, oval face, and fair skin combined with her small fangs revealed when she smiled.
Bai Zicheng subconsciously thought, "She looks like a kitten."
Xiao Li looked at Bai Zicheng and smiled, "Uncle Bai."
Bai Zicheng smiled, "You're so cute."
Bai Moye glared at his father, while Bai Zicheng continued to talk to little Xiao Li.
Xiao Heng and Huang Yu were busy, but they still listened to their conversation. Both of them immediately concluded that the Bai family was a good family. Xiao Heng stood up.
"Brother Bai, this is everything you need. The total is 525 cents. You only need to pay 500 cents."
Bai Zicheng immediately smiled when she heard the price. "How could Brother Xiao lower the price like that? I'll take this price."
Bai Zicheng handed over a 5-tael silver note. Xiao Heng saw that it was 5 taels. He didn't have any change. Xiao Heng said, "Brother Bai, this is too much. We don't have any change."
Bai Zicheng waved his hand. He picked up all the items on the table. "Brother Xiao, there's no need to be polite. I really like your little family. I hope we get along better in the future. Moye, let's go back. Your Grandpa and Grandpa must be waiting."
Bai Moye nodded. He looked at Xiao Li and immediately waved goodbye. Then, he left the grocery store with his father.
Both Xiao Heng and Huang Yu were stunned until Xiao Li spoke up. "Daddy, Daddy, why do you look so confused?"
After speaking, his parents immediately came to their senses. Xiao Heng held the five-tael note in his hand and remained somewhat dazed.
Huang Yu looked at her husband. "What should we do? Should we return the change?"
Xiao Heng was confused. "I don't know. Judging by his appearance, he doesn't want to accept the change. Wife, what does Young Master Bai's father mean? Does he know that Young Master Bai likes our ger?"
When Xiao Li heard this, she immediately blushed. Not knowing what to do, she quickly said, "Dad, Daddy, I'll go back to my room right away."
After speaking, Xiao Li indeed returned to her room. Her parents were left behind in the shop. Their stock of refined salt and sugar candies was out. So they needed to buy more items to fill the gaps in their shop.
Since they opened the grocery store, their life had been quite good. They had a steady income every month. With the money from Young Master Bai's father, this month's profits had increased significantly.
Xiao Heng looked at the empty inventory and smiled. "I'll buy some things tomorrow morning. There might be quite a lot. I can't go alone. I'll ask Xiao Xun to accompany me to the market tomorrow."
Huang Yu listened to her husband and nodded. It was true that their shop had sold out of many items. Huang Yu smiled, "I feel that Young Master Bai's father is very kind. No wonder his grandfather and grandfather are so friendly to the villagers."
"Yes." Xiao Heng glanced at the five taels in his hand. "No wonder Bai's parents have a good life. I'm pretty sure they're wealthy."
Huang Yu was a little worried. "Is that so? We definitely can't compete with their family. My little Xiao Li will definitely feel pressured. Even if Young Master Bai likes him, what about his family? His father or his brothers?"
Xiao Heng looked at his worried wife and shook his head. "You're thinking too quickly. Our Xiao Li is still young. So don't worry too much."
Huang Yu could only nod his head.
On the way.
Bai Moye glanced at Bai Zicheng, who was carrying some of the items they had bought. He let Bai Moye carry the rest. So the two of them walked together. "Dad, why did you..."
Bai Zicheng looked at his son, "I heard from your Grandpa Ger that you like that little Ger from the Xiao Family?"
When Bai Moye heard his father's words, his entire face turned red. "Dad, you..."
Bai Zicheng sighed softly, "That little Ger is so cute and pretty. How could she like a naughty, smelly brat like you?"
Bai Moye glared at his father. "Dad!! You can't judge me like that. I'm very good. Everyone in the village praises my kindness and devotion to my Grandpa and Grandpa Ger."
When Bai Zicheng heard his son's words, he immediately scolded him. "Filial? Where's the filial piety? I heard directly from your grandfather that he wants me to take you back to the city immediately. Don't think I don't know what you've been doing in the village all this time."
Bai Moye's face flushed red. He knew his father was definitely watching him. "Dad, you're watching me!"
Bai Zicheng snorted, "If I don't, you'll become even more stupid and naughty." He looked at his son, "You know what? Ger doesn't like naughty and smelly men. So you have to improve yourself from now on! Do you understand?"
Bai Moye looked at his father. "I understand, I understand. After I return to the city, I'll study hard. He said it's really cool to be a Xiucai. So I'm determined to become one before I become his husband."
Bai Zicheng furrowed his brows. "You're a lucky stinky brat. No wonder you don't want to go back. It turns out it's the cute little Ger in the village."
"Hehe..."
Bai Moye felt like they were being watched. "Dad, do you think we're being watched?"
