Chapter 191 A Group of People is Worse than a Child
"I……"
Li Rong shook her head twice in displeasure. Gu Yuru felt sick seeing this. She had asked a maid from the palace to teach her the rules, but she really didn't learn anything at all.
The posture now doesn't look like it was learned at all.
Li Mumu looked at the people with different expressions with pride, not caring about their envy and jealousy. She would never let her family suffer like this anyway.
"Sir, now that we have paid the money, can the people go?" Gu Mingyu asked.
"this……"
"Are you planning to go back on your word, sir?" Gu Mingtang said with a smile, "Everyone is listening. If you do, then our present will be everyone's future."
Gu Mingjing didn't say anything, but just raised a cold smile at the corner of his lips, his eyes full of murderous intent.
If Dong Zixu dared to say that the money was not right, or asked for more, the people present would probably make a fuss.
Dong Zixu was not a fool, and only then did he realize that he had fallen into the Gu family's provocation.
If they came to pay the ransom privately, he would definitely keep it or find an excuse.
But I can’t do that now, with so many eyes watching me.
He almost gritted his teeth and said, "Who wants to go back on their word? Come here, the Gu family has paid off the cost of exile, and they don't have to come to the quarry anymore."
"etc!"
Dong Zixu looked at Li Mumu who was speaking with a fierce look in his eyes, "What else?"
"One hundred taels per person. I still have money here, and I want to take the people from the Bai family with me."
As for money, she has plenty of it, but favors can save lives at critical moments.
The three masters of the Bai family were flattered, especially Old Master Bai, who stroked his beard and looked at Li Mumu with interest.
"Mumu, this is a lot of money. We can't accept it. Let's slowly..."
Li Mumu raised her hand, "But I have a lot too. I can't spend it all. I can't spend it all at all."
This arrogant little look is so annoying that those who hate him will hate him to death, and those who love him will love him to death.
"Sir, please keep these three hundred taels of silver."
In fact, the Bai family has a large population, and Li Mumu can afford it. It’s just that the Bai family is not as difficult as the Gu family. The three of them come to the quarry, and the rest of them make money slowly.
In fact, Li Mumu knew that it would be easy for the Bai family to come up with the money, and she was just doing a favor.
Dong Zixu glanced at Mr. Bai, wary of his connections in the court, and said, "Okay."
Li Mumu smiled, "Uncles and aunts, please watch us. We will each pay 100 taels. If anyone says that we haven't paid it back in the future, you must bear witness for us."
"Who do you think I am?" Dong Zixu gritted his teeth.
Li Mumu thought to herself, they treat you as a dead person.
If he accepted the money, his death would not be far away.
However, she would not tell her at this moment.
In full view of everyone, the little Li Mumu stood at the front, followed by several people from the Gu family and the Bai family, and then left in such a leisurely manner.
Li Rong was so angry that she almost felt sick. "Sir, her money... there's something wrong with her money. Where did she get so much money? She shouldn't have so much money."
However, Dong Zixu shook her hand away and asked, "Then where did she get the money?"
"I..." How would Li Rong know?
But she believed that no matter what business she did, she would not be able to make so much money in such a short time.
On the way back, Mr. Bai kept smiling, and his eyes were full of doting when he looked at Li Mumu.
The Bai family's eldest brother assured: "Mumu, we will return the money to you."
"Brother Bai, you are too polite."
"No, no, no, three hundred taels is not a small amount." said Old Bai.
He was also curious about how the Gu family got the money, but he was not stupid enough to ask.
If people want to say something, they will say it naturally.
Even the closest relationships require a sense of boundaries.
So if the Gu family didn't say anything, he would never ask.
"It's only three hundred taels. He thinks it's too little. Grandpa Bai wants more than three hundred taels."
Mr. Bai didn't hold back and immediately laughed, "Exactly, I also think that the number is more than that."
The Gu family also laughed when they saw this. They were really worried that the little girl's words would make Mr. Bai unhappy.
But it seems that they were worrying too much. Old Master Bai liked the little girl and would not be angry no matter what she said.
"It's a pity that we don't have that much money while we're in exile. This Dong Zixu is simply corrupt and abuses his power."
Li Mumu smiled, "Yeah, he can't get away this time."
"What...what do you mean?" asked Boss Bai.
Mr. Bai's eyes were full of smiles and he nodded slightly.
"Isn't the evidence here? He took so much money from me, and in front of so many people. He's going to be in trouble later."
Mr. Bai smiled and said, "You guys, a bunch of people are not as good as a child. No wonder your grandfather loves you like the apple of his eye. I wouldn't trade you for such a treasure even if I had a mountain of gold."
But the more this happened, the more curious he became about Xie Xun's identity.
How good a child must he be to make him willing to let the little girl get engaged to him?
Boss Bai said in surprise, "Everyone is a witness, but...even so, what can we do to him?"
"We can't do anything to him, but the prefect can." Li Mumu said with a smile, "He should be on his way."
"The prefect... do you know him?"
Song Qiang smiled and said, "Come to think of it, the prefect is Mumu's godfather. She saved the prefect's daughter, and the prefect's wife liked her and immediately adopted her as her goddaughter."
The Bai family finally understood, and it was no wonder why the little girl was so sure that she could bring down Dong Zixu this time.
Back at the Gu family, Gu Mingtang couldn't help but sigh, "I can finally sleep in tomorrow."
"You can't sleep in. Tomorrow is market day and you have to go with me to set up the stall." Song Qiang muttered.
Gu Mingtang looked dotingly at me, "Okay, okay, go set up your stall. From now on, I'll listen to whatever my wife says."
Song Qiang was overjoyed. "That's more like it. From now on, you'll have to rely on me for support."
Shi Zecheng returned home with a depressed look on his face. Wang Yufen smelled it and realized that the Gu family would no longer have to go to the quarry.
"Why?"
Shi Zecheng said angrily, "Just because he paid off his debts and is now debt-free, and look at his wife, how capable she is, what can you... do?"
Wang Yufen didn't expect that her frugality at home would result in her being criticized by the man, and she immediately started arguing with Shi Zecheng.
The brothers Shi Wen and Shi Wu were also very depressed, especially Shi Wen. He had a high opinion of himself and felt that he had the talent to be the top scholar, but now he was not even as good as an ordinary person.
"Lan'er, the weather is cold, put this on and don't catch a cold."
Shi Wen looked at Gu Lan who was standing in the yard not far away, with a somewhat intriguing look in his eyes.
