Rules Strange Story: My Family Is Not Normal

Chapter 241 The Big Aunt's Entrustment
Zhou Bai jumped out of the box.

The doubts in his head made him involuntarily pace back and forth in the room.

[The old patriarch is not a good person. 】

This rule made it impossible for Zhou Bai to think so simply when judging the behavior of the old patriarch.

Is protecting the interests of the family still his most important mission?
Or, does he also have his own selfishness?
Zhou Bai recalled the conversation he had just heard.

The old patriarch focused his search on the outside of the old house.

So, he really thinks that what happened last night was done by foreign thieves.

Even if Zhou Bai hadn't stuffed that form under his door last night, as the manager of a big family, it didn't feel unreasonable to react so arbitrarily.

Did he really have no doubts about the members of the Wu family?
Or did he know that there was a traitor in the family, and was he deliberately covering him up?

When the last guess came to Zhou Bai's mind, he was taken aback by his own guess.

If even the old patriarch could be a traitor, then the difficulty of clearing Zhou Bai's dungeon would simply rise in a straight line.

How should he use the power of a kitten to protect the seemingly impregnable Wu family that is actually riddled with holes?
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai felt a little headache.

At this time, Wu Ying rubbed her eyes, then sat up from the bed.

She just woke up, and the first thing she saw was the kitten walking around on the ground.

"Little black cat, you woke up so early?"

Wu Ying stretched her waist, put her feet into the cotton slippers on the ground, picked up her toiletries, and prepared to go out to the toilet outside.

"I can't sleep in late today, I have to go out and gather more herbs for my second brother."

Wu Ying seemed to be talking to the kitten, but also seemed to be talking to herself.

After speaking, he opened the door and walked out of the room.

Zhou Bai was worrying about how to get out of Wu's old house to see the situation outside.

Now that she heard that Wu Ying was going out to gather herbs, she felt that this was a good way.

So, he walked to Wu Ying's row of baskets.

Looked at the biggest and tallest one, then jumped into it.

Zhou Bai guessed that when Wu Ying went out today, she should carry this basket.

In order to avoid Wu Ying's refusal to take him out, he decided to take the initiative to lie in the back basket first.

Wu Ying came back from the toilet, found a thicker floral padded jacket for herself in the closet, and put it on, then walked to the side of the row of baskets.

"Hey, where is the little black cat?"

She questioned in a low voice, and stretched out her hand to the biggest pannier.

Then, she saw that the kitten she was looking for just now was actually lying in the back basket in her hand.

Wu Ying suddenly laughed.

"Little black cat, do you want to go out with me?"

Zhou Bai was lying in the back basket, while Maozhuo quietly grabbed the back basket tightly, for fear that Wu Ying would carry him out.

Fortunately, Wu Ying didn't have this plan.

They found another piece of cloth and covered it over the basket, then they took Zhou Bai with them and walked downstairs together.

Zhou Bai was in the basket and saw pedestrians passing by Wu Ying from time to time.

However, they seem to have ignored Wu Ying's existence.

When seeing Wu Ying, he didn't stop to talk enthusiastically like seeing others.

Wu Ying seems to be very used to this.

On the other hand, Zhou Bai, the little black cat, was lying in the back basket, looking at those indifferent clansmen, he felt bad for Wu Ying in his heart.

And at this moment, a gentle female voice finally sounded, calling to stop the little girl who was walking down the stone ladder.

"Wu Ying, are you going out to gather medicine again?"

Zhou Bai hurriedly moved closer to the basket, trying to see through the gap in the basket to see who the woman who was talking to Wu Ying was.

Then, he saw a middle-aged woman with an oval face and delicate features, but her face was full of wrinkles, standing next to Wu Ying.

"Yes, great aunt."

Zhou Bai remembered that she was Wu Chong's mother.

And the night before yesterday, Zhou Bai saw her chatting with Wu Chong in their room.

"Wu Ying is really diligent."

Seeing the woman in front of him, Zhou Bai showed a kind smile to Wu Ying.

"Also...it's okay.

The old patriarch criticized me yesterday for not being diligent enough. "

Wu Ying felt a little embarrassed when she was suddenly praised.

"how could be?

Wu Ying always picks a lot of herbs and brings them back to Wu Chi. She is a diligent and kind sister to her brother. "

Wu Ying was even more embarrassed by the praise.

"By the way, I heard that recently there was an old man who always came to sell sesame seed cakes nearby, and they tasted delicious."

When Wu Ying heard about her favorite biscuits, the expression on her face immediately became excited.

"You mean Uncle Wang, right?
The biscuits he made are delicious, and he is also a very nice person.

It's a pity that his legs and feet are not very good, and he is limping. It's really pitiful to walk such a long mountain road to sell sesame seed cakes. "

Zhou Bai saw that the expression on the eldest aunt's face had changed significantly after hearing about this old man Wang.

It was as if, talking about this old man Wang was the real reason why the aunt stopped Wu Ying today.

"Yeah, limping, poor thing."

The eldest aunt lowered her eyes, and her voice became much quieter.

"Then... when Wu Ying comes back today, can you buy me a biscuit too?

I hear it's delicious.

And... and... Hearing you say so pitifully, let me take care of his business too. "

After the aunt finished speaking, she took out a large amount of money and stuffed it into Wu Ying's hands.

Wu Ying looked at the extra money in her hand, and hurriedly wanted to return it to her aunt.

"It's too much. A sesame seed cake doesn't cost that much money."

As for the aunt, she turned around and wanted to go back.

"Not much, not much. Isn't old man Wang very pitiful?
Just give him all the money. "

The auntie walked up the stairs without waiting for Wu Ying to continue to answer, not giving Wu Ying a chance to refuse her at all.

Seeing the behavior of this eldest aunt, Zhou Bai felt something was wrong in his heart.

Are there any normal people in this old Wu family house?

And Wu Ying held a lot of money in her hand, and the expression on her face was also a bit embarrassed.

However, since the eldest aunt asked her for help, it was hard for her to refuse.

And the eldest aunt has already run away, and now it is too late to refuse.

I could only stuff the large stack of money into my pocket, then carry the basket on my back and continue walking down.

At the door of Wu's old house, there are now a row of people with weapons standing on the left and right sides.

Zhou Bai thought, if the old patriarch is really acting for the clansmen, then his posture is very good.
