Chapter 17 The disciple surpasses the master
Bai Li, who was running fast, sneezed violently and rubbed his nose.
I was thinking: Who is cursing me?
It’s also possible that my mother is nagging me and I have to go back quickly.
On a hilltop one mile away from Jincheng, Li Dong stopped the team and told them to take a break before entering the city.
In fact, his heart was beating fast. He was about to enter the next station, but the female devil was still nowhere to be seen. He was gradually feeling uneasy.
That female devil, wouldn't she take the opportunity to run away?
"Brother, how long will it take us to get into the city?"
Li Dong was yelled at by Li Rong and almost dropped the dried meat in his hand.
He patted his chest and glared at him unhappily.
"What are you doing? You're walking without making any sound!"
"Brother, I called you twice and you didn't respond."
"Okay, okay, go and keep an eye on it!" He threw the remaining half bag of dried meat in his hand to him.
"Brother still loves me!"
Li Rong happily took the dried meat and went to the side to be on guard.
The wild boar meat they hunted last time was not finished, so the servants of the Bai family made it into jerky for easy carrying. His brother got two bags and was very greedy.
Now that I can finally eat it, how can I not be happy?
Li Dong felt even more depressed. His younger brother could not help him in any way except causing trouble. If he had not been there to cover for him all these years, his younger brother would have lost his job long ago.
If he hadn't hit her so hard this time, the devil wouldn't have resisted, and he wouldn't have...
"Hey! What are you thinking about?"
Bai Li appeared behind him like a ghost, scaring him so much that he jumped three times.
"Hey girl...when did you come back?"
Li Dong almost uttered something, and his tongue twisted to come back.
"Why, are you unhappy that I'm back?"
"No, no, you're most welcome."
"But why do I see that you are not looking forward to my return?"
"Heaven and earth are my conscience! Heaven can bear witness..."
"Come on, come on, I'm just teasing you!"
Bai Li smiled evilly, "Since you are so tactful,"
As he said this, he threw a silver ingot to him.
"Here's a reward for you!"
"Hey! Hey! Thank you, sis!"
"Who is your sister? You're calling me old!"
"Boss, you will always be my boss from now on!"
"Come on, let's go into the city!"
"Okay!"
Bai Zongren felt relieved when he saw Bai Li returned safely.
I was secretly thinking: I wonder which unlucky guy has been unlucky, I hope it doesn’t implicate the Bai family.
He didn't dare to question her, but just winked at her mother Li Mingyue to ask.
Li Mingyue rolled her eyes at him. She didn't know what was wrong with her man. He was actually afraid of his daughter while on the road of exile.
Her daughter was so thoughtful. Look, she brought her a mink fur coat when she came back this time, saying that she wouldn't feel cold even in heavy snow.
When did those two brats in her family ever think of these things?
Bai Zongren's face looked a little unnatural. He looked up at the sky and down at the earth, but not at his wife.
His daughter always likes to compete with him, but now he gets scared when he hears the word "compete".
If you want to spar, then let's spar. The key is that he can't beat a little girl.
They said they were sparring, but that little bitch always beat him up so hard that he had no chance to fight back.
He was better off, the girl saved his face and never hit him in the face again.
Look at his brothers and his eldest son, which one of them was not beaten black and blue by her?
Thinking of this, he felt more balanced and had a sense of superiority.
At least as a father, he gets some special treatment and he also thinks of his daughter's kindness.
Thinking of this, he remembered that he always sought out his subordinates for discussions in the military camp. His subordinates should be feeling the same as he is now, right?
Otherwise, why would they run faster than rabbits when they heard about the competition?
Thinking of this, he became proud again.
She is worthy of being his daughter. A tiger father has a dog daughter. A disciple is better than the master. Why should he be ashamed of losing to his own daughter?
It was my daughter who said that he had such good genes that he produced such outstanding offspring.
While Bai Zongren was trying to build up his mentality, Li Mingyue found his daughter frantically rummaging through things in the carriage and pulled her out for questioning.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
"Tell me the truth, have you gotten into trouble?"
But she had to ask clearly to see how serious the disaster was. She could just send a letter to her daughter's family to help her pay compensation and make amends. But if it was revealed that someone had been killed or set a fire, it would be difficult to deal with. She had to ask clearly about the details and let her daughter take the blame.
In just a short moment, Li Mingyue even thought about how he would die...
"Mom, don't worry, even if we get into trouble, it won't be traced back to us!"
Bai Li suddenly thought of that unlucky guy. He knew her, so he wouldn't betray her, right?
But it’s okay to know her. He didn’t see her emptying the vault. If she denies it, who can convict her?
Li Mingyue: What should I do if I become even more worried?
"Okay, mother, we'll be in the city soon. Tell Li Dong to buy anything you need, and I'll pay for it."
Li Dong happened to come over, and Li Mingyue didn't ask any more questions, so the mother and daughter ended the conversation.
"Boss, are we ready to set off?"
If we don’t go into the city soon, it will be dark and it will be difficult to find a seat in the post station.
An exile group like them could not stay in an inn, even if they had money.
"Let's go! Tell the brothers to buy extra warm clothes when we get to the city. It's snowing when we get to Guizhou!"
"Thank you, Boss!"
Another ingot of silver was thrown over, and this time Li Dong expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart.
In previous years, when they traveled to Guizhou, those brothers from better-off families had thick clothes to keep warm, while those from poorer families only had thin clothes. They shivered in the biting cold wind and heavy snow, with their hands and feet turning red.
Many people need to lie down for one or two months to recover after a trip, and those with weak bodies simply cannot endure it.
The more the yamen runners hated Bai Li before, the more grateful they were to her now.
Although Li Dong had given them more than ten taels of silver before, they kept that money and took it home, and had already thought of everything to buy for their home.
Now that the money she gave is for buying clothes, then buy clothes.
Everyone has a clear idea of the purpose of a few dollars.
There is no other way. My family is too poor. Otherwise, who would come out to travel such a long and dangerous distance for a dozen taels of silver?
cut!
How much is it?
I was so grateful that I almost worshipped her as a Bodhisattva.
Bai Yue had only felt comfortable for a few days, but she felt unbalanced again.
In the past, she could easily take out this amount of money, so why was Bai Li so proud?
Mu pulled her and signaled her not to talk nonsense. If she angered Bai Li and ignored them, they would definitely live a worse life than before.
Her father had warned them twice, and if they did it again he would sell them out.
Mu didn't dare to do that. She knew her man's temper and knew he could do what he said.
Seeing that her mother was so afraid that Bai Li looked down on her, Bai Yue didn't believe that her father had really sold them.
Since she was a child, she has often snatched Bai Li's things and bullied her. Her parents know it.
Why didn't her father say anything at that time?
Now it's nothing more than seeing Bai Li become more powerful, so he just pretends to say a few words.
But Bai Yue didn't say anything in the end, because the carriage started moving.
"Hey! Wait for us!"
Bai Yue and her daughter climbed onto the carriage in a hurry. Before they could sit properly, the carriage drove away with a "go!". They stumbled and fell together.
