Chapter 004: Trick You Without Negotiation
The next morning, the people of the Li family were put in shackles and fetters and driven out of the general's mansion.
"She...she's pregnant. Could you please spare her the shackles?" Li Yuan said to the officer escorting them. "If you want to wear them, then let her wear them."
The scumbag dad pointed his finger at Li Mumu without any guilt at all.
Li Mumu was so angry that she wanted to curse. How old was she?
If her scumbag father and his mistress hadn't been so anxious, they would have taken Lin Siyan into the Li family as a co-wife before returning home, and she wouldn't have had to be exiled.
However, the reason the scumbag father told her mother was to protect Lin Siyan and the baby in her belly. After all, his men were dead, and they died to save him. It would be difficult for her, a woman with a child, to live outside.
So, she was just his concubine in name only.
Gu Yuru thought that her husband was also trying to repay her gratitude. Although she was still a little dissatisfied with this method, she was reluctant to let her husband bear the stigma of being unkind and unjust, so she nodded.
Li Mumu looked at her vicious scumbag father and secretly thought that with her around, the scumbag father and his mistress's journey of exile would surely be colorful.
"Pregnant? Is it my child?" The man looked at Lin Siyan with a lewd smile. She looked delicate and weak, which really made the man want to conquer her.
Li Yuan frowned, so angry that he forgot his identity. "Asshole, what nonsense are you talking about?"
However, the officer didn't waste any time talking to him. He whipped him in the face, and blood instantly seeped out of his handsome face. "Do you still think you are a general? How dare you talk to me like that?"
The escorting officers did not make things difficult for the Li family at first because a large amount of property was found in their home. But this time it was different. They must have received some instructions from their superiors.
"I..." Li Yuan was very reluctant, but he still remembered his identity at the moment, and the arrogance in his eyes suddenly subsided.
How could Li Mumu, who had seen everything, let the good show end like this? Yesterday, before her scumbag father left, he had his elder brother who spoke for her beaten up.
That's fifty lashes. Not to mention a ten-year-old child, even an adult man couldn't bear it.
In that time, the original owner's elder brother Li Yunchao died within a few days due to injuries, lack of medical treatment, and continuous hard work.
The officer grabbed Lin Siyan's butt with a lustful look. Lin Siyan waved her hand, and Li Mumu also seized the opportunity and flicked out the golden beans in his hand. To outsiders, it looked like the beans rolled down from Lin Siyan's body.
"stop!"
The official bent down to pick up the golden bean, curled his lips, and smiled sinisterly, "It seems that the Li family is not completely empty-handed. They have hidden all this on their bodies. Let me see what else you have hidden?"
The man originally wanted to wait until he was out of the city before taking action. If it weren't for the free women to play with, he would not have rushed to take this job.
But now, he had a legitimate reason and didn't have to wait until he left the city. Of course, he could also show his loyalty to Lord Liang and humiliate the Li family.
"Brothers, please search their bodies thoroughly to make sure they haven't hidden any valuables. This way, I can report your achievements to Lord Liang."
After that, he touched Lin Siyan all over her body. Lin Siyan was so scared that she screamed, "Brother Yuan, save me, I'm not hiding, don't touch me."
The man gripped her slightly bulging belly with disgust, "Is there a baby in here, or money?"
Li Yuan clenched his fists, but he was trapped in the shackles and could do nothing. "Let her go, don't touch her."
"Let me go, take your dirty hands away. Do you know who I am? My fiancé is the third son of the Minister of Revenue. If you dare... he will come to save me and he will deal with you."
Li Mumu raised her eyebrows. This stupid aunt wouldn't think that her uneducated fiancé, a bastard, would really come to rescue people. She would soon find out.
The women of the Li family were the main targets of the search, but the search was not in vain. In addition to the golden bean that Li Mumu threw out to attract jade, several gold jewelry were found on Li Rong and the eldest and second aunts of the Li family. The eldest aunt Zhao even stuffed the gold jewelry in her crotch.
When the man took it out, his face was full of disgust.
Without gold and silver jewelry, life in exile would definitely not be easy, and there would not even be money to pay tribute to the officials.
Just as she was thinking about it, Li Mumu's mother's hand tightened, and a younger official came to her mother, with a red face, and was about to take action.
Gu Yuru was naturally nervous. She had just seen the women being searched in public and felt humiliated. "Don't touch me. I have nothing on me."
The young officer was a little embarrassed and hesitated whether to take action.
"Sixth son, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and don't delay leaving the city. We have to walk eighty miles today."
"Brother, when will that uncle buy me some candy yesterday?" Li Mumu looked at the official named Liuzi in a foolish way.
"Buy candy? Liang... Lord Liang?"
"Uncle said he wanted to buy some candy for Mumu." Li Mumu said loudly on purpose.
The officer who had just ordered the body search also heard it. When Liang Long was mentioned, a trace of fear flashed in the man's eyes. He also heard what was said yesterday, and Lord Liang's attitude towards this girl was quite good. He was a little confused for a moment.
The officialdom is complicated, and Mrs. Li is the youngest daughter of the Gu family. Lord Liang only ordered that the Li family be taught a lesson on the way, but he never mentioned making things difficult for the Gu family.
He thought for a moment, maybe there is some connection between the Gu family and Lord Liang.
"Okay, she can't hide anything like that, let's go."
Gu Yuru breathed a sigh of relief. She could never accept being touched by a man in the street. If that happened, she would really have no choice but to die.
She escaped this danger, but the other female members of the Li family, who had been molested and had no dignity left, looked at her with anger.
After walking a few steps, the Li family met the Gu family.
When Gu Yuru saw her relatives, she burst into tears instantly. However, she could not walk around casually. She just held her daughter's hand and looked back at her family.
Although the Gu family suffered innocently, they did not blame him at this moment because they did not know the real reason for Li Yuan's defeat. Victory and defeat are common in the military, but the casualties this time were too heavy, and as the leader, he had to take responsibility.
"Cry, cry, cry, you still have the nerve to cry. It's all your Gu family's fault that we are like this." Old lady Li complained bitterly while staring at her face that was swollen like a pig's head.
Gu Yuru was busy looking after her family and ignored them, but Li Mumu was not going to indulge them.
She deliberately said, "Grandma buys candy."
When she heard about buying candy, Old Lady Li thought of the beating she received yesterday and trembled with fear. "Get out, you idiot."
"Grandma, what's in your mouth? Give Mumu a bite."
"What, there's still something in your mouth?" The officer on the side quickly pried open Old Lady Li's mouth, not caring at all about pulling her wound from yesterday. He found that there was nothing but a foul smell, and slapped her again.
Old Mrs. Li glared at Li Mumu hatefully, while Li Mumu clapped her hands and laughed happily.
Lin Siyan was crying so delicately that I felt sorry for her. She lowered her head, not daring to look at the official's wretched face, "Brother Yuan, I... I..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he was choked with sobs and unable to speak.
"I don't blame you. It's not your fault." Li Yuan gritted her teeth, but she still felt a little bothered in her heart. However, the look in her eyes when she looked at Gu Yuru became more complicated.
