Grandpa Ger Bai looked at his grandson. He was pleased that he accompanied them. However, this time he agreed that his grandson should return to their main house.
"Your father said that you should continue your education. You've already postponed it for a year. You should go back now." Grandpa Ger looked at Bai Moye gently.
The little boy furrowed his brows. "Grandpa Ger, isn't there a school in the village? Why don't I study there?"
Grandpa Bai looked at his grandson, "How is that the same? The education there is quite low. The teachers are only Tongsheng. If you study in the city, at least your teacher will be a Xiucai. After graduating from Xiucai, you can study with a Juren or above."
"I don't want to go back. I don't want to be a scholar. I just want to be a merchant."
Grandpa Bai glared at his grandson. "Even if you want to be a merchant, you have to take the exam!"
Bai Moye glared at his grandfather with hostility. Grandpa Ger Bai looked at his grandson, who was reluctant to study, and gently advised him. "Ye Er, what your grandfather said is true. Even if you want to be a merchant like your father, you have to pass the exam, at least you can understand reading and writing, arithmetic, and many other things."
Bai Moye looked at his grandfather weakly, "But I don't want to go back to the city."
Grandpa Bai looked at his grandson and mocked him, "Oh, little rascal! Who comes to the village first and wants to come back the next day? Even trying to escape to the city again."
Bai Moye blushed, "That... that was so long ago. Why are you still bringing it up?"
Grandpa Ger Bai smiled, "Ye Er, isn't the city and the village very close? Even though it's four hours away, you can visit on your days off. Your daddy has been getting more and more anxious lately. He even fainted because of it. You should go back."
Bai Moye widened his eyes, "D-Daddy fainted? Why?"
Grandpa Ger shook his head. "I only heard what your father's subordinate said. He didn't say anything else. Your daddy is worried about you, even though you're here with us. He's still worried. You should go back. I suggest your father come pick you up personally."
Bai Moye didn't say anything else, as his father had come to pick him up.
Grandpa Ger Bai saw that his grandson was very reluctant to return to the city. He smiled, "Do you like the little Ger from the Xiao Family?"
As soon as Bai Moye heard his grandfather's words, his face immediately turned red. Grandpa Ger Bai smiled, knowing that his grandson must have liked the Ger from that family.
Grandpa Bai looked at his grandson. "You're still young, but you've already thought about who you like?"
Just as Grandpa Bai finished speaking, he felt a harsh pinch on his waist. He couldn't help but groan.
Grandpa Bai smiled, "Actually, the little girl from the Xiao family isn't bad. She's pretty and cute. She sometimes helps her daddy look for wild vegetables around the mountains. If she joins the Bai family, she probably won't cause any trouble for them."
Bai Moye listened to Grandpa Bai's words and smiled brightly. "Grandpa Bai, do you think so too? I think so too."
Grandpa Bai looked at his granddaughter. "Grandpa Bai is very satisfied with her. But I don't know about your parents. We're a merchant family, and it's no secret that merchants and traders will marry their children off to someone of their status."
Bai Moye listened to Grandpa Bai's words and immediately pouted, "I won't marry anyone's choice but mine."
Grandpa Bai smiled, "Good, Grandpa will support your choice."
Bai Moye was excited, but a second later, his mood returned to normal. Grandpa Ger Bai looked at his grandson and asked, "You were so energetic earlier, but now you're so down again. What's wrong?"
"Grandpa Ger, but he doesn't like me. What should I do?" Bai Moye looked at his Grandpa Ger. Grandpa Ger smiled, "You're still young, don't think too much about it. Maybe it's because you act like a young master that he doesn't like you. But if you change your attitude, he'll definitely like you."
Bai Moye heard this and immediately smiled. "Grandpa Ger is right. When will Dad pick me up?"
"Your dad said he'll pick you up this afternoon."
"I understand." Bai Moye immediately stood up and ran out. Grandpa Bai and Grandpa Bai were shocked by their grandson's actions. Grandpa Bai stared at his grandson, who had disappeared. He then looked at his wife.
"Look at him. Running so fast. Why did you say that?" Grandpa Bai looked at his wife. The Ger smiled, "Your grandson's gone. You're looking at me."
Grandpa Bai shrugged. "That brat will definitely confess his feelings to the Xiao Family's little Ger. Just let him be!"
Grandpa Bai smiled, "You're right. We don't need to keep an eye on him now. He'll return to the city."
Grandpa Bai looked at his wife, "Why didn't you tell him that our Ger's daughter-in-law is pregnant with our third child? Look at his face, he's so anxious."
Grandpa Bai smiled, "If he just said she was pregnant, he definitely wouldn't want to come back. That brat will definitely find every excuse to stay in the village. I actually really want him to stay, but the education in the city is better than here."
Grandpa Bai nodded his head. "You're right."
While the two elders were discussing, their beloved grandson was already in front of the house they were heading to. Bai Moye ran over quickly. It just so happened that Xiao Heng was waiting for them at the grocery store.
He smiled, "Young Master Bai, do you want to buy something?"
Bai Moye looked at Xiao Li's father, his face a little embarrassed. "Uncle, can I meet Xiao Li? I have a few things to say before I return to the city."
When Xiao Heng heard him, he was a little surprised. Then he nodded his head. Xiao Heng smiled, "Wait a moment. I'll call Xiao Li."
They were still young, so it was fine to leave them alone.
Xiao Heng entered the house and finally found his little Ger helping his father cook. "Xiao Li, come here."
Xiao Li accidentally touched the charcoal and blackened his hands. He also rubbed his nose with his hands, making him look like a little cat. With his little canine teeth. He was truly a cat now.
"Daddy, what's wrong?"
"Come here. Come with Daddy."
Xiao Li immediately stood up and ran to his father. They left the kitchen and went to their grocery store. There, Xiao Li saw Young Master Bai Moye coming in. Bai Moye was a little surprised to see Xiao Li's black nose. Bai Moye's face turned red.
Xiao Li was small, looking like a kitten.
