Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

Kong Dai was stunned.

Su Bai told him clearly that no matter what purpose he and the second young lady had in protecting her, the eldest young lady, Kong Dai had to understand that he was taking care of the Kong family only out of affection, not an obligation.

What kind of friends you make and what you do outside have nothing to do with the Kong family, and no one has the right to interfere.

"What did you do yesterday? I don't need to explain it to you here, do I?"

Kong Dai knelt down in front of Su Bai and said, "Madam, my life is yours. You can take it anytime you want. I can't leave you. I am surrounded by tigers and wolves. I am worried!"

This sentence of being surrounded by tigers and wolves almost softened Su Bai's heart, but she still made up her mind: "It's no use saying anything, just go, you can come back to the Confucius Mansion in the future, I will treat you as a guest."

Su Bai also told him that she would not take a penny less of the wages he deserved, and this was entirely due to Kong Dai's great help to her over the past six months.

"If one day I leave the Confucius Mansion completely, I will leave you some money for your retirement."

Seeing that Su Bai had made up his mind, Kong Dai shook his head and slowly stood up from the ground, saying only one sentence: "Young Madam, if you have anything to say, please send a message to the mountain. I will not refuse even if I die!"

The grain has been loaded onto the cart. After Su Bai and Xiao Wei deliver it to Beishankou, Yang Huasen's men will take the grain away there. Kong Dai will also follow them up the mountain, and Xiao Wei will drive the carriage back.

Su Bai felt bad when Kong Dai left. She was not sure if what she did was right.

Wan Qili gave her confidence that she was doing the right thing.

Kong Dai dared to harm Zhou Beiwang without Su Bai's knowledge, so it was already a great mercy that he didn't take his life and gave him a chance to live.

However, she added that if Kong Dai was willing to admit his mistake and swear never to do such a thing again, Su Bai might consider keeping him.

But even if we do this, it will be later. At least we have to let him go up the mountain and suffer for a few months first.

"How many months?" Wan Qili said and laughed again: "After a few months, we won't be in this hellhole of Longxing anymore, right?"

Less than ten minutes after Kong Dai left, the second lady Kong Yun came running over with the eldest lady Kong Man.

"Sister-in-law, I heard that you kicked Uncle Kong out of the house?" the eldest lady asked breathlessly.

The news came really fast. Xu Tianyi whispered to Su Bai that the second young lady was very concerned about delivering grain to the mountain and had been in the yard just now.

The grain cart was loaded at the back door of Li's Mansion. She originally wanted to go out from the back door of Kong's Mansion to take a look, but was stopped by Xu Tianyi.

Except Kong Dai, no one in the Kong Mansion knew what happened in the backyard of the Li Mansion.

It was not known whether the second young lady heard in the courtyard that Kong Dai was driven out of the Kong Mansion by Su Bai, or whether Kong Dai told her after he came out, so she called the eldest young lady Kong Man as well.

The three of them are truly united from heart to body.

Facing Kong Man's question, Su Bai replied coldly: "I drove him away, what's wrong?"

What surprised Su Bai a little was that Kong Man did not raise any objections, but just wanted to know what mistake Kong Dai had made.

"He did something he shouldn't have done!"

Kong Man was quite smart. After Su Bai said this, she understood that he would not go into further details.

He just pleaded for Kong Dai in a low voice: "Can't you forgive him once?"

"cannot!"

"Isn't it okay to not let him be the housekeeper?" The second young lady also came to plead.

Su Bai ignored her, sat back in his chair and picked up the tea bowl.

She saw Kong Man quietly pull Kong Yun's sleeve, signaling her to stop talking.

Su Bai then told them that after Kong Dai went up the mountain, if he wanted to come back to the Kong Mansion, he could do so, but he could only take a look and could not live in the Kong Mansion anymore.

"Then can we live somewhere else?" Kong Man meant to find him a house in Longxing City.

She said that Kong Dai was old and had suffered for the Kong family all his life. Even if he didn't want to enjoy a good life, he shouldn't go to the mountains to suffer.

"Should we buy or rent a house for him?" Su Bai asked.

"All is fine." The eldest lady replied.

"I won't pay for it!"

The second young lady immediately said, "We'll pay for it, okay?"

Kong Man said to her, "Didn't our money come from our sister-in-law?" Then she sighed, "If our sister-in-law doesn't agree, then we'll have to let Uncle Kong suffer. After a few days, when our sister-in-law has calmed down, maybe she'll let Uncle Kong come back."

She also said that it would be good for Kong Dai to learn a lesson from this so that he wouldn't dare to do it again.

It's human nature. Kong Man and Kong Yun both grew up under the care of Kong Dai. If they turn a blind eye to Kong Dai's expulsion, Su Bai would think they are heartless.

"You guys go back. Although he is no longer in the Confucius Mansion, I will still pay him his wages. When he can no longer work, I will also give him some money for his retirement so that he will have no worries about food and clothing."

Kong Yun wanted to say something, but was pulled by Kong Man and bowed to Su Bai together: "Thank you, sister-in-law, let's go back!"

Kong Man has become so well-behaved?

In fact, Kong Man has been very obedient these days, but Su Bai still feels that her change is a bit sudden.

After the two sisters left, Wan Qili was a little worried about Su Bai driving Kong Dai up the mountain. After all, Kong Dai knew too many secrets. If he felt resentful towards Su Bai because of this, would he tell these secrets to other people?

Su Bai was still confident about this. Unless it was under extreme circumstances, Kong Dai would not tell these secrets to his enemies.

"What about Yang Huasen and the others? What about Liu Yiyan?" Wanneng Qili asked again.

This is possible. It has to be said that this is a hidden danger. Once Kong Dai tells these secrets to Yang Huasen and Liu Yiyan, these two will intentionally or unintentionally let their confidants know this information...

The final result will inevitably be uncontrollable spread, and eventually it will reach Kong Li's ears.

Although Kong Li arranged Captain Tian to live in the Kong Mansion in recent times, Su Bai did not feel like he was being monitored, and no one ever asked about his going out.

It is most likely because Kong Li was busy expanding the iron mine and neglected his side.

It would be different if he knew that the medicine came from his hands. It would be much more important than his iron ore.

"or……"

"I'll go call Kong Dai back!" Wan Qili immediately understood what Su Bai meant and ran out of the house.

In order to keep it secret, Su Bai had to take back her decision. She had already made up her mind that she must make Kong Dai promise her that such a thing would never happen again.

After a while, the sound of gunfire was faintly heard.

Su Bai came to the yard and heard gunshots coming from the north.

The gunshots were not frequent, but they continued.

She immediately realized that something was wrong and that the grain truck had an accident.

Wan Qili hurriedly opened the back door and ran in. She chased out the north gate but didn't see Kong Dai.

She told Su Bai that there was an exchange of fire at Beishankou.

It’s over. Yang Huasen’s observation of Kong Li’s surveillance post was not accurate.

The fact that he was delivering food to the mountain was exposed.
