Chapter 20 - Her Secret

Old Madam Bai finally believed that Bai Jinyao was not joking with her!

If Bai Jinyao really told others about the secret, the situation would be really bad.

At the thought of this, Old Madam Bai calmed down.

"Yaoyao, I'm still your grandmother. Even if you and your mother and brother have left Qianshui Village, we're still related!"

"Now that your father has passed away, you only have us, the Bai family, as your backer. If there is something wrong, we could figure it out together."

"But I hope you can keep your word. It seems that you're not in a good mood today, so we'll be leaving now."

"We'll come back someday!"

Old Madam Bai stopped being a shrew and suddenly became reasonable, which made Bai Jinyao even more vigilant.

Old Madam Bai left with her daughter after she finished speaking.

Aunt Bai did not know why her mother suddenly wanted to leave. She was unconvinced and wanted to say something more, but Old Madam Bai pulled her and left.

The onlookers were dumbfounded. They didn't expect the excitement to end like this.

It was obviously different from what they had expected.

Bai Jinyao glanced at the crowd and took a deep breath. Then she smiled at the people around.

"A few days ago, I was in a hurry to get married, so I didn't invite you guys to the wedding. I'm really sorry. These are the wedding candies for you guys."

As Bai Jinyao spoke, she took out a bag full of candies and handed it to the woman closest to her.

"Auntie Li, I'll have to ask you to distribute these wedding candies to them."

The woman who was addressed as Auntie Li by Bai Jinyao subconsciously took the bag. "Oh, okay. I'll distribute the candies to them. Well, Manager Bai, I wish you and your husband a happy life!"

"Yeah! We all wish you two a happy life! Hope you get a kid soon!"

The rest of the neighbors who finally came out of their trances also started to give their blessings to Bai Jinyao.

"Thank you for your blessings, thank you!"

Bai Jinyao thanked them with a smile and chatted with them for a while before closing the door to the courtyard.

As soon as she turned around, she met Mrs. Bai's worried and somewhat surprised gaze.

"Mother, what's wrong?"

Bai Jinyao's heart skipped a beat. She was shocked by her mother's expression.

Could it be that her mother felt that she had changed too much and was suspicious of her?

However, from the day she came here, she had already told her mother that she was going to make changes.

Her performance today was also one of the changes she had told her mother about.

"Yaoyao, you've really grown up! As expected, it's because you have a family, right? And when did you buy those wedding candies? I didn't know and didn't think of asking you to buy some wedding candies to share with the neighbors."

"And have you really thought it through? You really didn't give your grandmother any money!"

"In the past, I had told you many times, but you didn't listen. Now, you've finally thought it through! I am really happy for you!"

Mrs. Bai could not hold back her tears as she spoke.

She said that she was happy, but her tears kept streaming.

Bai Jinyao heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that her mother did not suspect her.

"Mother, I said that I would make some changes and I definitely will. Don't cry anymore. Let's make breakfast."

Bai Jinyao changed the topic.

Mrs. Bai wiped her tears and nodded.
