Chapter 71
Xue Shu and Qingyu didn't return home until it was getting dark.

Today, the two master and servant have gained a lot, and Xue Shu has accomplished a great deal. She hummed a little song all the way home, and she was in a great mood.

When he got off the carriage, he happened to meet Jing Xing who had also just got off the carriage.

Compared to Xue Shu, Jing Xing's mood is not so beautiful.

He went home for a trip, firstly his father disliked him for disturbing his two-person world, and then his mother pointed his nose and scolded him, reminding him not to forget the business of staying in Xue's house.

He was preoccupied and worried about not knowing what to do next, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Mr. Jing, what a coincidence." Xue Shu said hello, and went straight into Xue's house with Qingyu, without any intention of staying.

Seeing the back of the little girl leaving heartlessly, Jing Xing looked up to the sky and sighed.

Xue Shu was in a hurry to go back to unpack things, but she didn't pay much attention to Jing Xing behind her.

For noble girls like Xue Shu, when they go shopping, they can’t just buy a pair of clothes. Most of these rich ladies can’t carry them on their shoulders, so the merchants on Jinyu Street have launched delivery services one after another. .

Customers only need to order what they want in the store, and after paying the money, they can go to the next store empty-handed, and the store will pack and pack the things the customer wants, and then attach a small gift and send them to the shop. Guest home.

It's simple to say, but in fact, this small delivery service contains a lot of thoughtfulness.

First of all, the packaging box should not be sloppy, at least a carved wooden box or even a brocade box should be used. In short, customers must feel that this product is high-grade at the first glance.

As for the small gifts that are sent out, it takes even more thought. They must be fresh and exquisite. Sometimes an ingenious small gift can bring hundreds of taels of silver to the store, and it must not be sloppy at all.

The competition among the stores is becoming more and more fierce, and no one wants to lose out. The things they figured out are better than the other ones, so the customers fall in love with unboxing one after another, and they never get tired of it.

Back at Tangli Residence, the female envoys had neatly arranged the things sent by the shops on Jinyu Street, and they were waiting for the master to come back and unpack them.

Looking at the packing box that almost blocked the entire corridor, Xue Shu and Qingyu glanced at each other, feeling a sense of pride in their hearts.

Look!This is the country they laid down!
It was getting late now, the master and servant only opened a few boxes, and the kitchen brought the dinner.

The world is big, and the food is the biggest.

"Girl, this box won't run away here, let's open it after eating!" Qingyu pulled Xue Shu, who was still obsessed with unpacking, to get up, "Eating is the most important thing!"

Xue Shu had no choice but to look back at the pile of unopened boxes, lingering and refusing to leave, Qingyu really put all her strength into feeding, and finally pushed Xue Shu to the front of the dining table.

Alas, with such an uneasy master, there is really nothing I can do.

This meal, Xue Shu couldn't taste the taste, and after a few mouthfuls, she sat back and opened the box again.

Qingyu shook her head helplessly, and ordered: "Remove the food, and tell the kitchen that the girl didn't eat well at night, and tell them to turn on the stove to warm the food, so don't slack off.

Also, move everything back into the girl's bedroom, be quicker! "

"Yes." The female envoys in the yard saluted and said yes, and went to do things according to Qingyu's instructions.

There is a fireplace in the room, and the golden candlelight is beating, accompanied by the girl's cheers, warm and peaceful.

Outside, the clammy cold air fell with the night, and even the ground became wet and slippery.

-

"Stop pretending to me! Do you really think that you are great after being a nobleman? Bah! Tell you, either let us go in and live together, or you all get out of my way and make room for us!" A ragged man stood cursing in front of the courtyard gate, and behind him was a group of beggars with messy hair and stinky bodies.

The yard in front of them seemed to have been renovated not long ago, and the dilapidated wooden door was replaced with a brand new one, which looked quite grand.

"Don't dream! The yard is full of children. If you come in, you will drive them out! We won't open the door. You leave quickly, or I will report to the police!" In the yard, There was an old but powerful voice.

Hearing this, the beggars outside the door suddenly burst into laughter, and the tall and thin man at the head said in a strange way: "Oh, I was scared to death! Old man Wei, if you can do it, report it to the police? Go Ah! I'm watching you go! Open the door quickly! Aren't you going to report to the police!"

In the yard, Wei Nan's face was gloomy. He looked at the brand new wooden door in front of him, his eyes were bloodshot.

"The little bastards in there are human beings, so we are not human? Old man Wei, open the door quickly! Tell us to go in and keep warm too! Otherwise, we will really freeze to death in front of your house and turn into popsicles. When asked by the government, how do you explain it?"

"That's right! Our lives are also our lives!"

The beggars outside were still yelling loudly.

"Grandpa Wei, you can't open the door!" The children were hiding in their own rooms, but now they all ran out, "They are not good people! If they come in, they will drive us away! We... We'll freeze to death!"

Beggars don't know what it means to respect the old and love the young. As long as they are allowed in, the ones outside must be children.

"Do not open the door!"

"Absolutely don't open the door!"

So the children in the yard started shouting desperately one by one, as if they could drive away the group of beggars outside the door if they were loud enough.

Wei Nan looked worriedly at the wooden door in front of him.

They are old and weak in the yard, and there are young and middle-aged people outside. If the beggars force their way in, they can't stop them at all.

Their place is remote, and it is also a place where beggars and hooligans gather. The officers and soldiers patrolling at night don't like to come here. Therefore, their only support is the courtyard wall and the newly replaced wooden door.

The entire Salesian Bureau was in chaos, shouting and crying, and even Wei Nan didn't know what to do.

Only one person remained calm.

Zhu Yaoxing was still lying on the warm kang, with his eyes closed, counting the time in his heart.

As early as when the group of people first arrived, he had already called Chuchu directly.

He told Chu Chu that the situation in the Salesian Bureau was urgent, and asked Chu Chu to rush over to make a rescue.

Calculate the time, it should be almost here.

The beggars outside are not very particular about people, and they are not interested in scolding a group of children. Seeing that the wooden door has not been opened for a long time, the beggars immediately started to smash it.

Some beggars even climbed over the courtyard wall with a ladder.

There are a lot of new things in the yard, but the beggars don't care about them for the time being. They cheered and poured into the warm bedroom with bright eyes.

It wasn't until the beggars broke in, dragged Zhu Yaoxing up from the kang, and threw him on the ground, that Zhu Yaoxing opened his eyes suddenly.

Regardless of the severe pain in his body, he looked at the beggar who occupied his position with a confused face, and then looked back at the children crying and screaming in the yard, his heart seemed to sink to the bottom of a cold well.

Why……

He clearly told Chu Chu that a group of children are in danger...

Why is she refusing to come?
still is……

Delayed on the road?
Zhu Yaoxing smiled bitterly and closed his eyes.
