Chapter 10: Weird Team

Bai Zongren felt a little uneasy at first. After all, obeying the emperor's orders was ingrained in his bones, and now they were just disobeying the emperor's order.

But when he saw his mother, who was in her seventies, with her red and swollen hands and feet, he silently shut his mouth.

Bai Li winked mischievously at her brother. Bai Liulang and Bai Yu beside her saw it and giggled. Everyone in the Bai family was in a good mood and felt less worried about the exile.

Before arriving at the next post station, Bai Li took the opportunity to rest and brushed off the dust on the corners of his clothes to give everyone a heads-up.

His eyes swept over the yamen runners calmly, his tone filled with unquestionable majesty: "My Bai family was framed to begin with, and now we have fallen into such a miserable state. If you still want to continue to embarrass us, don't blame me for being rude.

However, as long as you lead the way quietly and do what you are supposed to do, we will not make things difficult for you, and you will naturally not miss out on the benefits.

What should I do next? I don’t need to teach you, right?”

Upon hearing this, the runners hurriedly nodded in agreement, like chickens pecking at rice. The leader, Li Dong, even said with a smile, "Don't worry, young lady, don't worry. We will pass through the post station according to the previous rules and will definitely not let anyone see any flaws."

The feeling of being whipped on the flesh is too sour and refreshing, they don’t want to experience it again, it is their nightmare.

Bai Li glanced at the yamen runners again, taking in their expressions one by one.

If she didn't have to go through so many check-in and report stations, she wouldn't bother to talk to them.

He casually took out a few banknotes from his sleeve, actually from the space, and handed them to Li Dong.

"Go buy three horses, load them up with a spacious, sturdy, airtight carriage, and some grain and meat. Exchange them for five hundred taels of silver and give it to me. The rest will be divided among you brothers!"

Li Dong opened his palm and saw a stack of banknotes inside.

After counting carefully, there are two bills worth 500 taels and six bills worth 100 taels.

Oh my goodness, one thousand six hundred taels of silver in one go!

The Bai family could easily come up with this amount of money before their house was raided.

But after their house was searched, even their hair was turned over. How did Bai Li hide it?

But no one dared to find fault with Bai Li at this moment. Li Dong was completely immersed in the joy of getting a huge sum of money.

It would be enough to spend only a small fraction of what she requested, and the remaining one thousand taels would belong to him...them!

The yamen runners were watching helplessly. Well, forget it, they were all his brothers who had been through thick and thin with him, so he would just take out half and share it with them!

"Brother, are you really not going to report it to the police?"

Li Rong secretly grabbed him, this was a rare opportunity.

"You're stupid! If you report it to the police, the money won't fall into our hands!"

Li Rong was silent. He wanted the money, but he wanted his life even more!

If you can get money and save your life, then why not report it to the police?

Li Dong rolled his eyes at him and was about to leave happily, but was stopped again.

Li Dong frowned and looked at Ma Dehai, implying impatience.

"Sir, I want to buy something too. Can you please excuse me for a moment?"

Li Dong was about to explode when he forced a smile when he heard that he wanted to buy something.

"You still have money?"

Ma Dehai looked around, turned his back like a thief, and reached into his crotch...

Li Dong looked disgusted. No wonder this kid was able to hide it. It turned out that he had left it there!

Then the banknotes in his hand are also...

Bah, bah, bah, how is it possible that such a huge stack of banknotes doesn’t even have a crease!

While Li Dong was daydreaming, Ma Dehai took out a piece of paper folded into the size of a fingernail and carefully unfolded it. It was a silver note worth one hundred taels.

He pressed the banknote into Li Dong's hand and said, "We want an ordinary carriage and a stone of rice, and the rest will be yours."

Li Dong did not throw away the banknote that smelled of feces and urine, considering that he could get fifty taels of silver in total.

"Just wait!"

Ma Dehai nodded and agreed. He was not worried at all that Li Dong would embezzle his one hundred taels.

Because he knew that Li Dong was a man of conscience in his line of work, and he would not rob prisoners of their belongings unless they voluntarily gave them gifts.

Of course, if you don't want to show filial piety, it won't work. He will naturally find ways to make you show filial piety on your own initiative.

Li Dong said goodbye to Bai Li happily and took his three helpers with him.

Everyone in the Bai family looked at this dramatic scene, stunned for a while, and then smiles of relief appeared on their faces.

Bai Li's father, Bai Zongren, had eyes full of emotion and pride.

But, there is no doubt.

He walked over to his daughter and patted her shoulder gently. "Li'er, I didn't realize when you developed such powerful Kung Fu skills. It's all thanks to you. Otherwise, we wouldn't have suffered so much on this journey."

Bai Li turned to look at his father and forced a smile, "Dad, these years I have also learned some skills from a hermit master by chance, thinking that they might be useful in the future.

I didn’t expect that I would actually use it today. No one will dare to bully us from now on!”

Find a reason for yourself first, no matter whether they believe it or not.

Bai Li's mother, Lin, stood by with tears in her eyes. She took her daughter's hand and stroked it lovingly, "My poor child, you must have suffered a lot over the years, and you kept it a secret from us."

Li Mingyue followed the army, and Bai Li was left at home to grow up with his grandmother Li.

Li was in charge of the huge general's mansion and had to take care of several children and grandchildren, so naturally he couldn't pay attention to her all the time.

It's not that Li didn't like her, but she adopted a laissez-faire approach to raising her children. She found teachers to teach her children literature and martial arts and then left them alone. Her sons all grew up this way and became successful.

Li Mingyue imagined Bai Li's growth process and felt more and more distressed the more she thought about it.

Bai Li hugged his mother and said stiffly, "Mom, I'm not suffering. As long as our family is together and alive, that's all that matters."

Her mother died early, and she hadn't received maternal love for a long time. She didn't know how to comfort her mother for a while.

Li Dong bought a carriage and the Bai Li family got into the spacious and bright carriage with carriages.

The reason she bought three cars was because she didn't want to share one with Bai Yue.

How good it is now. His father takes the men in one car, she and her grandmother, mother, and Aunt Bai who serves her grandmother take one car, and the remaining car is given to her aunts and cousins.

If it weren't for the fact that her father was implicated and convicted, she wouldn't have wanted to let Bai Yue and her daughter ride in the carriage.

The carriage was returned to the yamen runners, and naturally they were grateful to him again.

Because they had just received huge benefits from Bai Li, and now they had to return to the carriage, which was something they could not even imagine.

Based on their previous income, they could not earn this much money even if they worked hard all year round.

After these adjustments, the path of exile began to go smoothly.
