The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 26

Yang Hao was immediately furious: "You little bitch, you caused my hand to be injured that day. Humph, let's see how I deal with you, little bitch!"

"Come here! Catch this girl!"

The shopkeeper and clerk in the drug store were already hiding. Before Yang Hao's servant could get close, Jing Li kicked Yang Hao out.

Yang Hao fell to the street outside the drug store, shouting with blood on his mouth: "Take her down, take her down! Little bitch, I will make your life worse than death!"

Jing Li stepped out and kicked him again, then stepped on his chest: "Then tell me how you want to deal with me?"

"Brother!" Someone exclaimed from behind, and a girl hurriedly stepped forward: "Girl, how did my brother offend you? Do you want to be so cruel?"

Jing Li didn't let go and took a look at the girl in front of her. She was about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was as gorgeous as a peach and a plum. She was a pretty girl.

This girl was dressed in excellent fabrics all over her body, and she also wore headdresses such as gold hairpins and precious stones. She must have a pretty good family background.

"Girl, if you ask how your eldest brother offended me, why don't you ask me what caused me to offend you, a good eldest brother, who has made things difficult for me over and over again. Do you think I'm just a commoner and can be easily bullied?"

"Ah Li!" Chen Yuzhang heard the sound and came over: "This is Mr. Yang, how can you trample on someone without any dignity and not let him go quickly?"

Yang Hao lay on the ground and groaned. Seeing that Chen Yuzhang knew Jing Li, Yang Shiyue frowned and asked, "So Brother Chen knows this girl. It must be a misunderstanding."

Jing Li said coldly: "Misunderstanding? I have never met your brother, but he is always thinking of ways to harm me. Do you think this is a misunderstanding?"

Yang Shiyue smiled softly and said: "Girl, there is nothing wrong with my brother. I apologize on my brother's behalf, but can you let him go first?"

Jing Li raised her eyes and looked at her: "Let him go? And then wait for you to come and catch me with a bunch of people?"

Yang Shiyue said calmly: "I have a very strict upbringing, and my words are naturally true to my word. I will never do this again and again."

Chen Yuzhang said displeasedly from the side: "Miss Yang is from a famous family, how can she be someone who goes back on her word?"

Jing Li said in a long tone: "Oh, it's Miss Yang!"

This should be Yang Shiyue, the heroine destined in the original book. Suspicion suddenly arose in Jing Li's heart. Shouldn't she have met Chen Yuzhang after Chen Yuzhang arrived in Youzhou?Why did we meet in Qingzhou Mansion in advance now?

Yang Shiyue sounded a little confused, and Chen Yuzhang's face turned slightly red. He knew that Jing Li was thinking of the noble daughter of Kyoto that Chen's mother said.

"Since Miss Yang was born into a famous family, I think she means what she says and won't embarrass ordinary people like me!"

Yang Shiyue nodded in assurance, and Jingli moved her feet away. Yang Hao coughed and stood up. After calming down for a while, he pointed at Jingli and said, "Catch this little bitch!"

Jing Li crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows to look at Yang Shiyue. Yang Shiyue scolded him unhappily: "Brother, what are you doing? Where can anyone talk and act like this?"

Yang Hao still wanted to make a move, but out of the corner of his eye he saw his sister's face was gloomy, and he didn't dare to speak anymore.

Yang Shiyue looked pleasant and said, "Young lady knows Brother Chen, but I don't know which girl she is from?"

Jing Li smiled half-heartedly: "I'm not familiar with him!" After saying that, he turned around and left.

Chen Yuzhang felt embarrassed, and Yang Shiyue became even more confused. Who is this girl?Why does Brother Chen seem to have some friendship with her?
Yang Hao covered his chest and looked at Jing Li's back, his eyes as cold as quenched poison.

Jingli bought some more necessities and booked a room in the inn. It was not until night fell that the Lin brothers came back looking exhausted.Jingli hurriedly asked the waiter to bring some food, but Lin Dalang pulled Jingli into the room and closed the door, leaving his brother to guard outside.

"Sister, things don't look right in this city!"

Jing Li asked with doubts hidden on her face, "Did Dalang see something?"

Lin Dalang lowered his voice and said: "The boss of the car shop said that there are a lot of people customizing carriages these days. Even this afternoon, there were several shops. Fortunately, sister, you paid quickly, otherwise he wouldn't have done it for us first. .”

"When I came back, I met a few people and were dragged out of the city by the government officials. I heard those people crying and saying that the bandits from Xia Mi were looting, and the White Lotus Army also followed them. They couldn't survive until they escaped. Here we are.”

"We finally entered the city, but before we could even get a bite of hot food, we asked the yamen to catch us and throw them out of the city. How can we be better off if we throw them out?"

Jingli's expression became more solemn: "Have you two been seen?"

Lin Dalang shook his head: "No, I saw these officials were so fierce that I and Erlang came back in a hurry and didn't dare to stay outside."

Jingli paced: "You two have a full meal tonight and go to bed early. We will go to the car dealership early tomorrow morning and watch the boss fix the carriage and hitch the mule before leaving."

Jingli didn't sleep well that night. Several customers came and went during the night, and sounds came from time to time. Early the next morning, when Jingli went to the counter, she saw the shopkeeper listless and dozing off.

"Have you not slept all night, shopkeeper?" Jing Li asked casually.

The shopkeeper said with a grimace: "No, I don't know what happened these past two days. There are so many people coming to stay at very irregular times. The city gates were closed in the middle of the night. I don't know how they got in." .”

"It's a good thing to have many customers. Isn't the shopkeeper happy that business is booming?"

The shopkeeper sighed again: "Don't mention it. It would be nice if they were all living in dormitories, but most of them sleep in Datong bunks and ask for hot water. It's really annoying!"

Jingli knew in her heart that such people were probably not the normal floating population in the city, and were more likely to be refugees from Xiami.

The Lin brothers also came over after finishing their meal at this time, and the three of them went straight to the car dealership without talking.

The owner of the car dealership was instructing two workers to install the car. When he saw a few people, he came up to him and said, "You guys are so early! It will be done in a few hours."

The Lin brothers helped without Jingli talking. Jingli was chatting with the boss. As he was talking, a man in his forties who looked like a butler came over: "Old Song, hurry up and pack a few cars for me." Get out of the carriage."

The owner of the car dealership rushed to the man and saluted: "Steward Zhao, you suddenly want a few carriages, but what's the urgent matter at home?"

Butler Zhao replied: "My wife is going back to her parents' home, which is a bit far away, and she has to take the young master and lady with her and a bunch of servants, so we don't need a few carriages!"

The owner of the car dealership bowed and said, "That's right. When Mrs. Zhao goes out, there must be a lot of boxes and boxes. Unlike us ordinary people, one basket and one baggage can contain the whole family's belongings."

Butler Zhao sneered: "I've been too busy making carriages these days, how can you, the old boy, carry the whole family with just one bag?"

"Okay! You can do it first. I have to buy some snacks for the young master and young lady."

The owner of the car dealership nodded and bowed as he sent Butler Zhao away. Jing Li stepped forward and said, "Which house is this butler from? So impressive!"
