Chapters 597 and 598. Similarities
Bai Suihe learned a lot, especially things that were difficult to learn before, such as bone setting and suturing, and made great progress in one night.

As the master and servant boarded the small boat to return to the large ship, they noticed that the guards were looking at them with more awe.

The two men didn't mind, and when they left, they only asked them to give Tanoshita and the others a quick death as a reward for their cooperation last night.

As for the valuables they found, although there were some, Bai Suihe and the others didn't intend to keep them. Gu Kaiyuan immediately distributed them among everyone as extra rewards for them.

The guards, having received such a great reward, instantly felt that this mission was incredibly lucrative. If such a good thing happened a few more times, they could go back and buy some property for their families, and then work for the Bai family patriarch for a few more years before retiring.

As for whether saying it will cause any psychological burden?
Just kidding, they're doing this to rid the people of a scourge. That's exactly why they learned martial arts back then.

It's a win-win situation – you can get rid of the pest and earn money at the same time. There's nothing better than this.

I also gained a new understanding of Gu Kaiyuan. It seems that he had done a lot of preparation beforehand, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to predict things so accurately every time.

And then there's the great-aunt, who, as the great-aunt of the Bai family, is actually studying medicine and is skilled in using poisons. Such a well-bred young lady can endure such hardship and still study so hard. They are still not working hard enough.

In just these two days, they have gained and learned so much, so they must work even harder.

Back on the ship, Bai Jiannan held Gu Xingyang in his arms. The two of them looked at them with the same disgusted eyes. Since nephews and uncles often resemble each other, Gu Kaiyuan felt a little jealous when he saw this little expression.

It was clearly a child he and his wife had worked so hard to have, so how could he be like Bai Jiannan?

He hurried over, wanting to take his daughter away, but before he knew it, Gu Xingyang had also wrapped her arms around Bai Jiannan's neck, which made the old father extremely jealous.

He glared fiercely at his brother-in-law, then turned to his wife and complained, "Suihe, look at our second brother, he just glared at me."

Bai Suihe, "..." I've already seen it; now I'm the next victim.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Bai Suihe sneered. "I haven't done anything to wrong you."

"How could you run away in the middle of the night? Leaving me and Little Star here, how could you do this to us?"

Bai Suihe took a deep breath. These were her own younger brother and her silly, adorable daughter. "It's the middle of the night, and I have important business to attend to. I'm not going out to play. You two shouldn't be making trouble."

“Xingxing, listen, your mother says we're being unreasonable…”

Gu Xingyang also looked accusing, "How could you leave your daughter alone on the boat? Aren't you afraid that bad guys will kidnap me...?"

Bai Suihe glanced at the guards standing around them, then looked at the vast ocean outside. In this place, who has the extraordinary ability to take you away?
However, he couldn't say it like that, so he smiled and said, "It's not that you're sleeping soundly, and it would be inhumane to wake you up in the middle of the night. Anyway, that island is right there. If you're curious, I'll take you to see it."

"What's there to see now?" Shan Shui and the others had seen plenty along the way, and Bai Jiannan said irritably, "Next time you go there, we have to follow you."

Taking advantage of his sister's momentary guilt, Bai Jiannan quickly set forth his conditions.

Bai Suihe didn't answer him and went straight back to her room. "You should be more mature. You're the head of the family now, after all."

"What's the big deal? Those who came out with me are all my trusted confidants. Even if I throw a tantrum right now, they won't let this get out."

Gu Xingyang looked at her uncle with admiration. She hadn't realized her uncle had such a powerful trump card. She had learned something from him.

Bai Suihe rolled her eyes at him. "I'll remember what you said. When you're seventy or eighty years old, I'll tell it to your children and grandchildren."

"Hehe, do you think I'm afraid?" Bai Jiannan, whether out of boredom or a bit of letting loose, blurted out, "My mother has told me a lot about your embarrassing past before, so what? Shall we hurt each other?"

Gu Xingyang blinked her starry eyes, “…” Uncle, she was curious and wanted to hear it… Bai Suihe took her daughter from him, “If that’s really the case, then we’ll wait and see.”

What dark history could she possibly have? It can't compare to all the mischief and pranks the person in front of her had as a child.

"Sis, this is not nice of you. Can't you just give in? Anyway, I'll follow you next time no matter what."

If all else fails, you can let your brother-in-law stay on the boat. I can do anything he can do.

"Your brother-in-law has sources of information, do you?"

Bai Jiannan: "...I will definitely be prepared for the next sea voyage."

I'll put a bounty on them when we get back. I don't believe these little dwarfs won't produce a few traitors.

"Don't worry about your business anymore, but don't forget who you are," Bai Suihe said irritably. This time, she only wanted to let him relax a bit because she saw that he was carrying such a heavy burden at such a young age.

Moreover, this time when he went back, he was busy enough promoting various dishes with chili peppers. How could he possibly want to go to sea again?
Bai Jiannan: "How about letting my younger brother be the head of the family?"

Wealth is very tempting, but no matter how much wealth you have, it's just a number. Yet, he, the head of the family, lives like a beast of burden, working from dawn till dusk.

My younger brother's life is much better than mine. He sleeps until the sun is high in the sky every day and goes around calling out to his friends...

"Do you think that's possible?" Bai Suihe ignored him. If he weren't her own sister, she would have thought this kid had come to Versailles in front of her.

"Go back and work hard. From now on, your good days for your sister and third brother will depend on you." Bai Suihe said, adding insult to injury, and then stood on tiptoe to pat his shoulder encouragingly, "Your sister is rooting for you."

Bai Jiannan, "..." He came here to fight, but how did he end up being someone else's slave...

Gu Xingyang, “…” My uncle is so pitiful, so young. I wonder if baldness was common in ancient times…

Bai Suihe patted her buttocks lightly, “…” How is your uncle pitiful? He possesses wealth that others can only envy. He has the responsibility to fulfill his duties. You can’t lead your uncle astray. In the future, our family will still rely on him to help us earn money.

"Mother, you're so naughty..."

"Yes, I'm so bad. You'd better think about how to appease your own father."

"I didn't do anything?"

"You glared at him..."

"I do not have……"

……

Over the next few days, they sailed on and made some gains along the way. Although they didn't have much, they managed to vent their anger.

After several days of questioning, it has been learned that these people were just bluffing; they couldn't make a living in their homeland, so they came out to become bandits.

Moreover, it is said that their harvest this year has been bad, with several earthquakes occurring. People are now in a state of panic and are only focused on rebuilding their homes, so they have no spare energy to help them.

Bai Suihe also learned that the island nation was currently just a disorganized mess...
