Chapter 98 A Happy Consensus
The power of King Wei's mother's family is so complicated that they would have taken him down long ago if they could have!
To be honest, Bai Li's request really pissed Zhou Yu off.
It’s unbelievable that he, the king of a country, can’t do anything to a vassal king!
He didn't even dare to tell his wife about this, it was too shameful!
However, every request she made was reasonable and he had no objection.
But if you think about it carefully, there is something wrong.
Bai Li dropped another bombshell before he could think about it.
"King Wei, I can help you solve the problem, but sometimes I need some privileges."
Zhou Yu was overjoyed when he heard this. It was like someone had brought him a pillow when he was dozing off. If he could deal with the traitor King Wei, half of his worries would be relieved.
The King of Wei is powerful and it is impossible to take him down without some rights. It is reasonable for her to ask for some privileges.
Without saying a word, he took something off his waist and handed it to her.
"I give you this gold medal. You can do whatever you want without any worries."
Bai Li reached out to take it. It felt heavy in his hand, and it seemed to be made of pure gold. On the gold plate were four big words "As if I were here in person".
Oh, with this thing she can walk around the Great Zhou with ease!
Then she thought secretly: I wonder if her father will kneel down to her when he sees this gold medal?
Zhou Yu: ...
He was smiling in a lewd manner. Could it be that he wanted to spend his gold medal like it was worth gold?
“…Bai Li, Bai Li!”
"ah?"
Bai Li woke up from the memory that everyone would kneel down and shout "Long live her" when they saw her, and wiped away the non-existent saliva.
"Don't worry, the battle plan will be ready tonight, and we will take immediate action against the King of Wei."
Zhou Yu: "...There's no need to be so hasty, it won't be too late to do it after the New Year.
As for restoring your family's freedom, I have kept it in mind. Wait for the news!"
"No, Your Majesty, you are showing your appreciation and recognition for me by letting me take on this important task. I will definitely complete it in the shortest possible time, ensuring both quality and quantity, right?"
Bai Li was so happy that he didn't care about what he said.
Zhou Yu looked at the hand on his shoulder, turned his head silently and pretended not to see it.
Bai Li imagined a wonderful life in the future where he could use chicken feathers as his authority, and he had no sense of being servile at all.
"You trust me so much, I will definitely not let you down, just wait and see!"
"Well, I believe you."
He was afraid that if he said he didn't believe her, his shoulders would be crushed by her!
So powerful!
He used to believe in her abilities only 50%, but now he believes in them 90%.
How could a little girl with such strong hands be a mortal?
"Well, that's it. I'm going back to the barracks now that I've finished talking.
My whereabouts should not be known to too many people, remember to keep it confidential."
Zhou Yu took the opportunity to escape from her clutches, rubbed his shoulders and took a few deep breaths.
He had also practiced martial arts since he was young, and was not a weak person, but he could not even withstand the slightest touch of her hand!
Haha, his grand plan is expected to come true!
The king and his minister happily reached a consensus. Zhou Yu put on his hat and left in a hurry, just as he came.
When he walked out the door, he seemed to catch a glimpse of a familiar figure, but before he could take a closer look, the figure disappeared. He was afraid of being recognized, so he got on the carriage outside without stopping.
Nangong Min followed behind and said goodbye to the Bai family, then jumped into the carriage and drove away as the coachman.
When Bai Zongshen came out pushing his daughter who was dressed up, he was dumbfounded. There was no trace of the carriage!
"Brother, why did that distinguished guest leave? You didn't even invite him to have a meal!"
Since his goal was not achieved, Bai Zongshen suppressed his anger and questioned Bai Zongren.
"You said they were honored guests, so what do you want me to serve them? Whole grain pancakes or steamed buns with wild vegetables?"
Bai Zongshen choked and wanted to refute, but he didn't know what to say.
What they ate were the coarse grains distributed by the village, beans and black noodles. Bai Li's family had the money they earned from hunting to buy food, so her family often ate rice and noodles, but his family had not eaten fine grains for a long time except for a few eggs!
These are far from enough to entertain distinguished guests, but...
"Okay, stop asking about things you shouldn't ask about, or you'll get into trouble!"
Bai Zongren glared at him warningly, telling him not to think that others could not see what he was planning. If he wanted to die, he should not drag others down.
Bai Zongshen laughed it off and changed the subject, but when he turned around, the viciousness in his eyes could not be hidden.
"Hey, Yu'er, why don't you come into the house?"
Mu and Yang, who had just returned from digging wild vegetables, saw Zhou Yu, who had returned before them, hiding in the firewood pile at the door, peeking out of the room, which was very strange.
"Ah? I, I'm waiting for my aunt?"
Zhou Yu stroked his frightened heart and quickly found an excuse.
"Kid, what are you waiting for now that you're already at the door? Let's go home."
Zhou Yu is also amazing. After being rescued by Bai Li, she became very friendly and got along with the Bai family even closer than her own family.
She also made up a tragic story about her life in which both her parents had died and her vicious uncle forced her to sell herself, and the money she earned was squandered by her cousin on gambling.
This made Mrs. Li cry and say that the child was pitiful and could never go back to that home, but she would not need a pair of chopsticks if he stayed.
Zhou Yu naturally agreed with great pleasure, and soon followed Bai Li's way of addressing everyone in the family, and no one thought there was anything wrong with it.
Bai Yue looked at Zhou Yu, who was wearing a coarse cloth dress but could not hide her nobleness, glared at her fiercely, then walked away with her head held high.
Zhou Yu: Is this person sick?
Not only does he always find fault with her, he also tries to trip her up secretly.
If the Bai family had not been kind enough to her and trusted her enough, she would have suffered a lot of grievances.
Zhou Yu shrugged and ignored her. The basket in her hand was taken away by Mu. She hooked one with each hand and pulled the two aunts into the house.
"Bai Li? You're back!"
When Zhou Yu saw Bai Li, he immediately let go of his two aunts and pounced on the newcomer.
Behind them, they heard two people teasing, "Oh my, Yu'er doesn't want us anymore after seeing Li'er. It's really sad!"
When Bai Li saw her, he patted his head and then remembered who she was.
Isn't this a trouble that I saved myself?
Why is she still here?
Especially since the Chinese New Year is coming soon, won’t she go home to celebrate the New Year?
Before he knew it, she had already caught him in her arms.
Bai Li: ...
Really enthusiastic!
Bai Li's return filled the granary with rice, flour, and other fine grains. Mrs. Li happily shouted, "Go buy a pound of pork from Zhang the butcher in the village, and go to the backyard to cut some leeks. We'll make dumplings today!"
Li Mingyue replied softly, "Mom, we don't have any fine flour at home. Should we use black bread?"
Mrs. Li smiled in an enigmatic manner, "Now that Li'er is back, does she need our fine noodles?"
Dawn Moon:? ?
Her daughter came back with only a light cloth bag. How much food could it hold?
But the old lady was happy, so she did it.
At worst, she could go to the village and ask who had white flour, and then she would use the private money her daughter secretly gave her to buy some.
