Chapter 852: Let’s Talk About Life
Ye Ying said worriedly, “Princess, I’ll go and find a chair. Don’t tire yourself out from standing.”
Gu Bailu waved her hand. “Go. If the kid doesn’t come out today, I won’t leave.”
Ye Ying worked quickly. She got a chair from a neighboring shop and went to a stall to buy some sugar water.
Gu Bailu sat down and drank some sugar water. She looked at the carriage and asked the crowd, “Whose carriage is this? Can you move it?”
It was winter and the ground was really cold. She had taken a look at the child just now and he was dressed very thinly.
He had to rely on stealing to survive, so he didn’t have much spiritual power.
He definitely wouldn’t be able to bear it, lying on the ground like this.
The child refused to come out and was pretty stubborn.
As soon as she asked the question, the carriage moved two steps forward, exposing the child’s butt.
Gu Bailu was speechless.
The carriage moved even without a driver?
She swallowed some sugar water. “Thank you for your cooperation.”
She stood up and walked over to kick the child’s butt. “Come out, little turtle.”
“Madam, do you still need the carriage to move?” A deep male voice came from the carriage.
Gu Bailu was speechless.
“F*ck, kid, there’s someone in the carriage. You just crawled under someone else’s butt. If you look up, you’ll see someone else’s butt through the planks…”
The onlookers: “???”
Something like that could be said?
The little brat finally moved. He took a few steps back and got up. “You’re so noisy! It’s just two silver taels, but you chased me for half a street. I’m so unlucky to run into you.”
He threw the purse at Gu Bailu impatiently.
Gu Bailu bent her waist. “What’s wrong with these two taels? Did they offend you? You’ll make these two taels feel very inferior; even a thief is looking down on them. How will they still have face to be taels?”
“I’m the one who’s too embarrassed to steal them.”
It hadn’t been easy for him to find such a rich mark, but in the end, he only stole two taels?
“You should change careers as soon as possible. You tried to pickpocket me when you would clearly fail; why are you so blind?” Gu Bailu felt that she had to try and save this flower of the motherland.
“Heh… What do you want?”
He sounded like a little boy just four or five years old. His face was so dirty that it was hard to tell what he looked like, but his eyes were black and clear.
“Seriously, being a thief isn’t the way to go. Switch to a different path. Off you go.”
Gu Bailu asked Ye Ying to help her stand up. “Let’s go back.”
Now that her body was heavy, she felt very tired.
The crowd snorted.
After running for eight hundred meters and wasting so much time, this was the result.
Wasn’t this letting the audience down?
“Madam, please wait.” The voice came from the carriage again.
Gu Bailu turned around. “What’s up?”
“Madam, you caught the thief, but didn’t send him to the official. You let the thief leave just like that. Don’t you know he will go on to steal from even more people? So… you should report this to the official.”
The male voice in the carriage carried a tone that brooked no refusal.
Gu Bailu was speechless.
Am I in the wrong for letting a little flower of the motherland go?
Is it also wrong to let a thief go after catching him?
“Heh… none of your business.”
Gu Bailu turned around and walked away. She was exhausted. She had to go back and lie down on the wide bed in the inn.
“Madam, this incident took up half an hour of my time. Shouldn’t you give me an explanation?”
“Pfft, you were here for so long and I didn’t ask you to pay for watching the show. Come… show your face. Let’s talk about life.”
