The vicious lady who wears books and becomes the villain

Chapter 25
Qi Yu was called by name, but he just said lightly, "This year's tax is owed, and I can't pay the tax. I will tell the county magistrate, maybe the bandits can pay some tax money."

After he finished speaking, the green snake looked him a little more squarely.

The government probably thought that Li Xiaoxiao's going to make a fuss about the bandits would be a good excuse to get rid of the bandits. In addition, this man should have sent Mrs. Dong to the bandits so that the leader of the bandits drank the wine and fainted. I told the government about the matter, and the government thought it would be easy to deal with the bandits, get a lot of taxes, and win a good reputation, so they agreed.

These bandits have been making more trouble recently, many women have been victimized, and the government really can't ignore it, but they have been collecting stolen money from the bandits all these years, how can they easily wipe out the bandits.

Only she, who knows the inside story, knows these things, how could Qi Yu guess it, it is rumored that he is clearly just a son-in-law who can only wash clothes and cook.

On the other hand, Shan Yunfang asked curiously, "Sister Xueqing, how did you know that you are the benefactor's Xianggong reporter." When she asked, the other sisters also opened their eyes wide and looked at Chen Xueqing curiously.

"Sister Fang, who is the only one going down the mountain in this whole team?"

"Yes, my benefactor's husband, but what does it have to do with it? I still don't understand." Shan Yunfang is the youngest child in the group, and she is only 14 years old this year. If she hadn't been infected by these bandits, she would be at the age of youth and ignorance. .

Chen Xueqing touched her head, "Simply speaking, most people dare not offend the government. The only person who has some knowledge is the benefactor's husband. In addition, there are not many people who know that Li Xiaoxiao is on this mountain. Ladies, there are only benefactors who are worried about what will happen to the lady."

Only then did Shan Yunfang nod, seeming to understand, while Qi Yu was holding Li Xiaoxiao in a daze, staring at the front without knowing what he was thinking, it was not difficult to see anger and unconcealable coldness in his eyes, as if he was plotting what a big deal.

A few people went down the mountain, and a few women came down the mountain, but Chen Xueqing had something hard to say, "My benefactor, I don't care if you can stay in your house for one night, but my sisters are all homeless. My benefactor also said before, She wants to open a shop, and we sisters can just help sell some rouge and gouache, but we just stay for one night tonight, and tomorrow I will find a place for myself."

Qi Yu nodded, "Well, there is a spare room at home, just go back and let the steward arrange it." Shan Yunfang laughed happily when she heard that, "Benefactor, that's great, thank you benefactor."

Several women sitting next to him also thanked her, only Green Snake explained lightly, "I helped the master donate firewood, and I secretly placed something, and I have already recognized Li Xiaoxiao as the master."

He Chunying tentatively asked, "Green Snake, since you have the ability to escape from the cottage, why do you still stay in the cottage?" Most importantly, why didn't you help the other sisters before? Of course, she could only hold back this question. heart.

The green snake's green eyes were squeezed between the flesh, revealing some narrowness and viciousness, "I was not trapped in the cottage, I just stayed in the cottage voluntarily. If any of these men dare to touch me, I will poison him to death on the spot. The room I live in is full of poison, and I follow my master, just admiring his strength, which is different from weak creatures like you."

That ugly face was full of disdain, and He Chunying was furious on the spot, "Green Snake, do you have any sympathy, no wonder the women in the camp don't like you."

The five of them were originally like sisters, and they helped each other on weekdays. This scene was actually looked down upon by the green snake. How could she swallow her breath? Gui Sujuan put He Chunying on the shoulder, "Forget it, Chunying, don't talk about it." .”

Gui Sujuan was the oldest among them, and she was the most calm. Her face was covered with scars. When she was caught going up the mountain, she self-destructed, but she still did not escape the bandits' grasp.

The women were suddenly gloomy. If they couldn't find a good job, they would probably be servant girls or laundry ladies, earning a few hundred pennies a month, or begging on street corners.

There was silence along the way, only Li Xiaoxiao was sleeping all the time, and finally arrived at Li's house, all the sisters looked at the house in the distance in surprise.

Originally, they had heard on the mountain that the Li family had only developed in the past few months, and inexplicably gained a lot of money. Looking at this big courtyard, they don't know how much money was spent. Although the house is not very luxurious, it is The blue bricks and white tiles are much better than the straw houses.

Uncle Luo sent the man to the door, and Qi Yu took out twenty cents from his sleeve and handed it to Uncle Luo. When the two wolves at home saw Qi Yu coming, they all ran over to greet him, and made low, howling noises. song.

The women turned pale in shock, and they recognized the wolf in front of them. Manager Hu came out of the room, showing a decent smile, "Miss, don't panic, it's probably because these two little guys miss her master."

As soon as the words were finished, the big wolf was about to pounce on Qi Yu, the man's cold eyes swept away, and the two big wolves were much more peaceful, following the women and sniffing.

"Master Qi, the food has been prepared in the house. Let the girls come in. It's still cold in the spring, so it's unavoidable to be cold." As soon as Guanshi Hu finished speaking, Bai Yi, who was indifferent all the time, and Bai Han, who was smiling beside him, came out of the room.

"Hello, sisters." Bai Han is a cheerful child, Qi Yu hugged Li Xiaoxiao and saw Bai Han's face warm up, "Han'er, today is also very cute."

Because Bai Han is talkative, when everyone just sat down at the dinner table, Bai Han insisted on asking questions, which made the sisters even more affectionate, but Qi Yu hugged Li Xiaoxiao and whispered in her ear, " Ma'am, it's time to eat."

The aunt sitting in the upper seat beside her couldn't help but covered her mouth with her long sleeves and laughed. Everyone saw that the old lady was also politely saying hello when she took the seat. Butler Hu explained, "This old lady is little aunt Li. Call it auntie."

Everyone praised the aunt for her extraordinary bearing.

Li Xiaoxiao's ears moved, and Qi Yu said it again, Li Xiaoxiao opened his eyes with water in them, "Husband, I'm hungry, have you eaten yet?"

Qi Yu turned her over, Li Xiaoxiao was facing the dining table, and when she saw a table of dishes, she immediately rubbed her eyes, picked up the chopsticks beside her hand, and Qi Yu said in a timely manner, "Everyone eat Let's go." After speaking, Li Xiaoxiao got up and sat beside the man and began to eat.

Only then did the crowd begin to move their chopsticks.

Half an hour later, everyone finished eating, and Li Xiaoxiao nestled in Qi Yu's arms, Qi Yu stopped chopping, Chen Xueqing saw that the timing was right, and took out five liang of silver from his arms, "Benefactor, oh, no, Master, this is my temporary savings, and my group of sisters don’t know how to make a living in the future, so I want them to make some money to open a pawn shop. I used to do business at home, but I have some experience.”

"Then what kind of pawn shop are you going to open?"

Li Xiaoxiao looked at Chen Xueqing seriously, and the other sisters also stared at Chen Xueqing, waiting for her to come up with an idea, Qi Yu looked calm, but it was Bai Yi, Hu Guanshi, and Gui Sujuan who cleaned up the leftovers on the table .

"I don't know yet, I have to investigate the market, but the money can be deposited with the benefactor. Since she escaped there, Xueqing has already been regarded as the master by the benefactor." As soon as Chen Xueqing finished speaking, the other two people on the table also Following Ying He said, "We agree with Xueqing."

Li Xiaoxiao clapped his hands, "That's fine, that's it, tomorrow Xueqing will go to Lao Wu, there is a mountain in the backyard, it belongs to our family, go to expand some houses, call all the little sisters over, shop It will be decided another day, and the money will be collected by myself."

Seeing this, Green Snake quickly interjected, "Master, I do have one or two hundred taels of silver with me. I just need to call more people tomorrow. I also want to build a house."
