Chapter 11

In the sub-city, Bai Su felt ten years older after the phone call.

The wife saw that something was wrong with her husband, so after asking for a long time, Bai Su held his forehead and couldn't speak.

If he had known that there would be today, Bai Su should have resolutely opposed Yu Wu to follow Bai Li back then.

As the daughter grows up, she is used to doing more things and less talking. Many decisions are no longer discussed with her parents. Being the master of the family needs to be independent as soon as possible, so Bai Su will not ask her daughter for an explanation, and insists on an explanation.

In the history of the family, there has never been a special situation where the Yu family followed the Bai family. Bai Su thought that Yu Wu was a novelty. The Bai family did all the dirty work, and Yu Wu would leave voluntarily after not staying for long.

Doing that well will neither offend the Yu family nor cause trouble to Bai Li.

Who would have thought that in the first nine years, Bai Su would lose the right to speak, and the Bai family had already been handed over to Bai Li to be the master, and Bai Li could do whatever he wanted.

.....

Doing ideological work well, Bai Su took a day off to go to Yu's house to find Yu Cunzhuo.

He didn't sleep all night, the man had bags under his eyes and was extremely old.

Yu Cunzhuo was drinking tea in the study, while Bai Su, led by his servant, knocked on the door and stood waiting at the door. Not long after, a voice came from the room asking him to come in.

The Yu family lived in a courtyard, and the house has been handed down from generation to generation. Since Yu Cunyu was seriously ill, his younger brother Yu Cunzhuo managed everything in the Yu family, including the branch of the Bai family.

As soon as he entered the door, Bai Su smelled a scent of tea, and was about to half-kneel on the ground, but Yu Cunzhuo stopped him without haste: "Brother Su, there are no rules for outsiders."

When he was young, he fought and killed. That era was not as peaceful as it is now. Bai Su had a whole body of flaws, not to mention half-kneeling, even squatting was difficult.

The words spoken by the acting head of the house were equivalent to those of the head of the house, Bai Su nodded his thanks, and the servant closed the door and left quietly without disturbing.

Two brothers, two completely different temperaments.

Bai Su used to follow Yu Cunyu, Yu Cunyu was a taciturn and majestic patriarch.

The younger brother, Yu Cunzhuo, wears glasses with a bookish face, meticulous hair care, likes simple and clean things, can paint and recite poems, is elegant and humorous, and is knowledgeable and versatile.

The men, women and children of the Yu family all have a god-given good skin. Yu Cunzhuo is middle-aged, and he can still be described as vigorous.

The two had just talked on the phone a few days ago, when Bai Su came over suddenly, Yu Cunzhuo knew that he had something to say.

"Brother Su, does he know that I brewed a good pot of Pu'er?" Yu Cunzhuo smiled, and brought Bai Su a clean teacup and beckoned him to sit down quickly.

Bai Su didn't speak, and sat opposite Yu Cunzhuo.

"People, you should drink more hot tea when you are old." Yu Cunzhuo boiled water to make tea, his tone was quiet.

There are several brothers in the Yu family, and Yu Cunzhuo is the most popular. He has a high emotional intelligence, is good at communicating without putting on airs, and makes people comfortable and relaxed when getting along.

"Patriarch, there is something I want to say hello to you." Bai Su was not in the mood to drink tea with him.

"Oh?" Yu Cunzhuo smiled and took a sip of tea, "Is it about Bai Li?"

The two looked at each other, and Bai Su didn't seem to care much when he saw his expression and tone as usual.

But those eyes stared at him, and the smile continued. Bai Su felt uncomfortable all over, with thorns on the soles of his feet. Yu Cunzhuo seemed to see through his thoughts, so he gritted his teeth and murmured: "Bai Li encountered a little trouble in the outer city. There is nothing I can do this time." Be back in time."

The tea cup was gently put down by Yu Cunzhuo, he was surprised, "Wang Zuoshan is so difficult? I called Bai Li, why didn't she tell me?"

It's against the rules to hide something.

The tea is very fragrant, and the aroma penetrates into the nose and has the effect of calming the nerves.

Yu Cunzhuo likes to drink tea, and spends an hour in the study every day drinking tea and reading.

Bai Su adjusted his sitting posture, and tried to make his tone as relaxed as possible: "That child doesn't want to trouble you, and you know her personality is just like that."

"Indeed." Yu Cunzhuo nodded, pushed down his glasses, and asked, "Do you need my help?"

Bai Li is already catching up with her father at a young age, if she lives longer, she must be even better.

"She can handle it, as long as you allow her some time."

"Okay." Yu Cunzhuo agreed very happily, "We are all a family, do you still need to come to me in person for this matter? It's too outlandish."

Yu Cunzhuo stroked the mouth of the teacup with his finger, the heat was hot, he thought for a moment before withdrawing his hand, puzzled and said: "What about Yu Wu? When will Yu Wu come back? The fourth brother said he can't get through on the phone."

Yu Wu...Bai Su held his breath in his chest, he couldn't get up or down, the person sitting opposite was Yu Cunzhuo, Bai Su quickly adjusted his expression, and took a cup to drink tea.

Bai Su smacked his tongue after drinking it, and boasted happily: "The owner has a good taste for the delicious Pu'er."

He was afraid that Yu Cunzhuo would become suspicious, so he immediately answered, "Yu Wu's phone is broken, go back to Fencheng and fix it."

"Brother Su, look at my memory." Yu Cunzhuo slapped his forehead and shook his head looking very annoyed: "I remember wrongly, this is not Pu'er or Jasmine, can't you drink it?"

The flattery is too deliberate, unlike Bai Su's usual straight-talking style.

The air froze, and Bai Su's face froze.

"Brother Su has something on his mind. I'm absent-minded. Didn't sleep well?" Yu Cunzhuo poured out the jasmine tea in his cup, found Pu'er again, and asked Bai Su politely: "Do you still drink?"

Bai Su swallowed and shook his head.

Jasmine has a strong fragrance, and he doesn't believe that Yu Cunzhuo will remember it wrong, unless he is testing himself.

Every set of tea sets on the table is very valuable, and the tea sets that Yu Cunzhuo likes will try his best to get them at a high price. He is a gentleman and personable, but he is not a kind person, and he likes to win favors from others.

This man's horror is not outside, but inside.

The gentle knife, the knife kills people, silently.

Yu Cunzhuo slowly made tea again, muttering: "I'm old, I'm old."

He said with a smile: "After becoming the head of the family, my memory is not as good as before."

old?Yu Cunzhuo is less than 40 years old and pays attention to maintenance. His face looks the same as that of his [-]s.

Strictly speaking, Bai Su and Yu's brothers grew up together and belonged to the same generation.

The Bai family has witnessed and participated in all the ups and downs that the Yu family has experienced in the past few years.

When the old patriarch of the previous generation was alive, Yu Cunyu was appointed by name and surname to inherit the position, and the remaining brothers were there to assist him, feeling unwilling.

The old patriarch has no preference for anyone, he tested many aspects, and finally decided on Yu Cunyu, the eldest son with both character and ability.

After Yu Cunyu fell ill, Yu Yinwan, the quasi-patriarch, never saw anyone alive or dead.

Several younger brothers couldn't hold back their temper and scrambled to be the acting head of the house, but the second eldest brother Yu Cunzhuo kept silent, took care of the elder brother dutifully, accompanied the bed and waited on the excrement and urine in person, and worked hard without complaint.

The surviving elders of the Yu family investigated the views of Yu Cunzhuo from top to bottom, and pushed him to the stage.

Some people say that Yu Cunzhuo has no heirs and is not capable enough to take on important responsibilities.

Such voices did exist in the early years, and there were many.

Later, Yu Cunzhuo was busy looking around, keeping Yu's house in order, and he still didn't forget to serve his eldest brother. Those who disagreed with him shut up and followed him to work honestly.

.....

"That's all." Bai Su kept silent, Yu Cunzhuo waved his hand, and laughed again: "It's just a cup of tea, Jasmine or Pu'er is not important, Brother Su, it's rare for you to come here, let's not talk about work, just chat like when we were young, okay?"

After Bai Li took charge of the family, Bai Su retreated to the second line and rarely saw Yu Cunzhuo, but the two of them never stopped talking on the phone. He liked Bai Li and thought that Bai Li was a rare talent in the Bai family as a female streamer.

Bai Su gradually regained his composure. He realized that he was too nervous, and instead he was self-defeating.

"Nowadays young people are different from us. They have their own opinions and like to make some achievements by themselves. I can understand." The birds and flowers were singing outside, and Yu Cunzhuo seemed to have a bit of nostalgia on his face, "Tell Bai Li, don't work too hard, she has more important things Isn't it the thing?"

"Yes." Bai Su bowed his head and answered, no matter what, at least he bought time for Bai Li temporarily.

In the remaining ten minutes, Bai Su did as Yu Cunzhuo wished, the two talked about the past, and even talked about Yu Cunyu's illness.

The daughter disappeared, and she was ill for four years, and there was no hope for her.

Yu's family spent a lot of money on Yu Cunyu's illness. They have sought folk remedies and so-called genius doctors, and his heart disease is hard to cure. Besides, stomach cancer is at an advanced stage, and taking medicine is nothing more than delaying time. One day counts as one day, and it is not enough to suffer.

When he got sick, Yu Cunyu injured himself several times, and none of his wife or younger brother who was with him survived.

The ward has already taken away all sharp objects that may cause harm, for fear that Yu Cunyu will be overwhelmed with suicide one day.

It is taboo for a hundred-year-old family to commit suicide, but if word spreads, the Yu family will be ashamed to continue to gain a foothold in Fencheng.

Yu Cunzhuo felt sad when the once majestic elder brother became like this, and he didn't want to mention it. For Bai Su's safety, Yu Cunzhuo didn't agree to let him see Yu Cunyu.

After the tea was finished and the chat was successfully concluded, Bai Su lied and prepared to leave.

As a bystander, Bai Su has different views on Yu Cunzhuo.

It stands to reason that the men cultivated by the Yu family are all competitive, bloody and fighting spirit.

And Yu Cunzhuo was not greedy for the position of Patriarch from beginning to end. After he came to power, he told Bai Su that if Yu Yin could come back, he would immediately abdicate and find a mountain to live in seclusion, and would not bother about anything about the Yu family.

The Yu family cultivated all masters. Even without the father and daughter Yu Cunyu and Yu Yinwan, there must be someone who can lead the Yu family to continue to make achievements. Yu Cunzhuo doesn't have to fall out with his brothers because of the position of the head of the family.

Brothers and sisters fought each other openly and secretly, and the Bai family stood by the patriarch unconditionally to protect him and keep him safe.

Yu Cunzhuo spent half his life with nothing to worry about, what is he planning?

.....

A long time after Bai Su left, Yu Cunzhuo opened the drawer and picked up a photo.

In the photo, he was standing in the middle, with two girls holding him on the left and right. Yu Cunzhuo took off his glasses and put them on the table. He rubbed the yellowed edge of the photo with his fingertips. He closed his eyes and said to himself: "Wanwan still remembers?" Second uncle?"

"Second uncle is very tired." Yu Cunzhuo touched his face.

Wrinkles can already be felt in the corners of his eyes, and his hands, which are good at playing the guitar, now need to read countless documents.

But no matter how tired he is, can he be more tired than Bai Su?

Putting on his glasses again, Yu Cunzhuo's eyes shined, he smiled silently, toasted and continued to drink tea, Bai Su, A Baisu, the man the old patriarch trusted most when he was alive, was also the man of the Bai family he respected since he was a child.

All his life as a soldier, he was capable of both literature and martial arts, and his ability was comparable to that of his elder brother Yu Cunyu.

Is Bai Li his hope or a burden?
