"Thank you, young master. I will go with you again in three days. Don't worry, leave the arguments and disagreements to us."
"Alright!" This is exactly the result Ningbao wanted.
These women were able to live comfortably in Nanzha City, and their families were doing well enough; they weren't people who lacked a few taels of silver.
They went to the Li residence today simply to join in the fun.
Ning Bao needed to gather more people, so she didn't mind spending a few taels of silver.
Back at the inn, Bai Ming instructed his trusted confidant, Bai Dong, to keep an eye on Li Ming.
He wanted to see how Li Ming managed to amass so much silver in just three days.
Unexpectedly, Li Ming did not disappoint Bai Ming. That very night, he had his advisors invite wealthy people in Nanzha City to drink.
The same thing happened on the second and third days. Three days later, Bai Ming received the full amount of silver notes and swaggered away from the Li residence under the murderous gazes of Madam Feng and Feng Yu.
After receiving the divorce papers and doubled dowry, Bai Ming turned around and ordered all of Li Ming's criminal evidence to be sent to the capital.
The wrongful convictions and miscarriages of justice handled by Li Ming over the years, including the tragedy of the Sun family and the tens of thousands of taels of silver he accepted in exchange for money to raise dowry funds, are enough to get Li Ming fired, imprisoned, or even have his property confiscated and exiled...
Of course, that's a story for another time.
Let's get back to the main topic.
When Ningbao and Baiming returned from the Li residence that day, they found that Baizhi and the child had both woken up.
Although the child has been eating, drinking, and defecating every day for the past few days, it has all been unconscious; he has not been fully conscious.
Bai Ming also secretly brought Bai Zhi and her child into the laboratory for a full-body examination.
Apart from being weak and needing rest, no other problems were found during the examination.
Even so, Bai Ming was still worried as long as the person hadn't woken up.
After all, there is another type of healthy living dead: the vegetative state patient.
Now that the person is awake, Bai Ming is much more relieved.
"Zhi'er, how are you feeling? Is there anything that's bothering you?"
Bai Zhi was somewhat disoriented upon waking.
"Big brother..."
Because she hadn't spoken for a long time, Bai Zhi's throat was not only hoarse but also dry and sore.
Ningbao quickly handed over the water glass.
"Sister Bai, have some water first."
Bai Zhi nodded to Ning Bao to express her gratitude. After drinking the water and feeling much better, she smiled and looked at Ning Bao and Bai Ming.
"Brother, who is this young lady?"
"Sister Bai, I am the junior sister of the eldest brother. My name is Zhou Wanning, and my nickname is Ningbao. You can just call me Ningbao, Sister Bai."
Bai Zhi nodded.
"Ningbao is so beautiful."
At this moment, the wet nurse came in carrying the child. The child woke up a little earlier than Bai Zhi and was taken to the next room to be breastfed by the wet nurse.
Bai Zhi was stunned when she saw the child, and at the same time, she felt a pang of heartache when she thought of her own child.
"Brother, who is this child?"
Bai Ming took the child from the wet nurse and brought him to Bai Zhi.
"Zhi'er, look, this is your child, my nephew."
You might not know this yet, but I went to the Li family today and got your dowry back. I also got Li Ming to sign the divorce papers. From now on, you'll only be the eldest daughter of the Bai family. With your older brother around, no one can bully you.
Looking at the child in Bai Ming's arms, Bai Zhi recalled her experiences in the Li family over the past few years and couldn't help but burst into tears.
