Chapter 103 The Mermaid Baby's Innocence



Baili Wanwan's actions shocked everyone.

After all, these were vicious pirates, and one wrong move could cost you your life.

"If it weren't for you, little brat, we wouldn't be in this situation. Now you're putting on this fake act of kindness. I don't need it. Get lost!"

The pirate captain was once a powerful figure, but now he has been defeated by a little girl. If this gets out, he will probably become a laughing stock.

“But if you bleed like this, you will die.” Baili Wanwan took a deep breath and then tried to persuade her gently.

Although this person is a big bad guy, he is not yet ready to die.

"Little sister Wanwan, these pirates are really despicable. Now that the government officials have arrived, let's take them away quickly."

Before anyone knew it, Lin Lan had also arrived.

He kept watch from the shadows for a long time and witnessed everything that happened between Baili Wanwan and the strategist.

The strategist is indeed handsome, but he's hardly a match for his beautiful sister.

"Yang'er, why don't you take the fairy sister home?"

Lin Lan didn't want to see Baili Wanwan get involved with any other men of unknown origin, so he instructed Lin Yang'er, cleared his throat under her puzzled gaze, and explained, "These are all vicious people. You two are still young and young ladies. It's not appropriate for you to watch them being taken away by the government officials."

"Why wouldn't it be appropriate? They've already been taken down, they won't do anything to us."

Baili Wanwan had an innocent look on her face.

Unable to find a good excuse, Lin Lan's face turned red, and he stammered.

"It's because these pirates are all rough men, and they're bound to say some vulgar things. Those things are not suitable for children, and you're young ladies, so hurry up and go."

Lin Lan waved her hand, hoping that Baili Wanwan and Lin Yang'er would stop arguing here.

Lin Yang'er was very well-behaved. She turned around and took a step, but after only two steps, she stumbled and was fortunately supported by Baili Wanwan.

"Fairy sister is indeed amazing."

Lin Yang'er lowered her head somewhat embarrassed.

But Bai Liwan didn't want to leave.

In her opinion, since the county magistrate and Grandpa Wan were on good terms, if Grandpa Wan pleaded with the county magistrate, there might be room for the matter to be resolved.

She still didn't want to see her strategist brother get into trouble.

How unjust it is for good people to be mistaken for bad people.

Baili Wanwan stared intently at the strategist, and perhaps because her gaze was too intense, the strategist suddenly turned his head away.

Baili Wanwan was stunned and somewhat embarrassed. She opened her mouth, but in the end, disregarding everyone present, she ran towards the county magistrate.

"Grand Magistrate, Wanwan has something to say."

The magistrate was negotiating with Wan Suizhou when he saw a small figure rushing towards him from afar. Before he could react, the little child grabbed his leg.

"There were actually good people among those pirates. Wanwan could tell."

Baili Wanwan raised her delicate hand and pointed directly at the strategist not far away: "Strategist brother is a good person."

No one believed her when she said that.

This strategist is the one who devises plans for all the pirates; whatever the treacherous scheme, it must be his idea.

"Nonsense!"

Wan Suizhou snorted coldly: "Don't be too willful, or you'll be punished by copying the Book of Songs when we get back."

In the past, Baili Wanwan would obediently shut up whenever the topic of copying the Book of Songs came up, but this time she did not choose to compromise.

In his haste, his voice cracked.

“That’s not true at all. You two grandfathers must believe Wanwan’s words. Wanwan can see it.”

Baili Wanwan could only say that, but everyone took it as a joke, since no one would take the baby's words seriously.

Wan Suizhou bent down and picked up Baili Wanwan, his face kind, but he still tried his best to pretend to be angry.

"It seems you need me to personally take you home."

Baili Wanwan shook her head: "Actually, Wanwan can go home by herself, but can we please let that strategist go? He's really not a bad person..."

Children speak without restraint.

No one took Baili Wanwan's words to heart, and the county magistrate's men quickly took the pirates away.

Baili Wanwan was completely devastated.

The strategist's face often appears in my mind.

The storyteller called this "lovesickness".

But the storyteller also said that only when you like someone and can't have them will you suffer from lovesickness.

But she didn't seem to like that brother; she just felt sorry for him.

Baili Wanwan was sullen all day.

...

The next day.

The villagers of Hailan Village woke up early, planning to go to the village where the pirates lived to bring back the two boxes of gold and silver jewelry.

The matter has been reported to the county magistrate, but after learning that the gold and silver jewelry were not relics of the previous dynasty, the magistrate gave up the idea of ​​bringing them as tribute to the imperial court.

Therefore, after discussion among everyone, it was decided that these gold and silver treasures would naturally be handed over to Wan Suizhou for distribution.

"It doesn't seem reasonable to give so much gold and silver treasure just to the people in our own village."

Wan Suizhou stood with his hands behind his back, pondering for a long time.

"Otherwise, we can donate half of these things to the imperial court, which would be a small token of our appreciation from the villagers."

It is true that these things were discovered by the villagers, but they should not have swallowed them all for their own selfish desires.

If they keep one box and hand over another to the imperial court, their village will naturally attract the attention of the court, which will then promote the development of their village.

However, the villagers considered these ideas foolish. After all, when faced with such a good thing, who wouldn't want to take these treasures for themselves?

Are you stupid?

Upon hearing this, Zhao Damei immediately began to curse and swear, her face full of disgust: "How can there be such a stupid person? Our own villagers are already so poor, and we've finally found a treasure, and you still want to give it away."

Zhao Damei's behavior is extremely disrespectful.

A woman who marries and follows her husband should be punished by being drowned in a pig cage for speaking such disrespectful words to her husband's elder brother.

However, since everyone knew what kind of person Zhao Damei was, no one paid any attention to her for the time being.

However, Wan Suizhou's proposal has aroused dissatisfaction among many people.

But it was someone else who discovered this treasure and rescued the people from the treacherous path.

If we were to refute Wan Suizhou now, we would be seen as ungrateful.

"Brother Wan is in charge, and leaving behind a box of treasure is enough for our village."

One of the villagers spoke first.

People should know how to be grateful. If it weren't for Wan Jia, they probably wouldn't have gotten a single penny.

Finally, the box of gold and silver jewelry was distributed among the villagers, with those who went out to sea to salvage the items receiving a larger share and those who did not participate receiving a smaller share.

All the rest were confiscated.
