Chapter 12 Fighting
Liang He was alert: "Madam, do you have anything else to do?"
Zhu Mingqing didn't hide it either: "Indeed. I hope you two can keep today's events a secret. If anyone asks, just say you bought it."
"But there are women's clothes in here..." They are a group of grown men and they won't buy this stuff.
“There aren’t many ready-made clothes, mostly made of various fabrics.” We can make both men’s and women’s clothing.
Chang Wu's eyes revealed a pleading look: Boss, please agree to it.
Liang He gritted his teeth and said: Okay, let’s do it!
Finally, Liang He drove the horse-drawn carriage, Chang Wu drove the donkey cart, and Zhu Mingqing casually sat on it, and the few of them returned to the post station.
…
In a room in the post station, an old man and a young boy were sitting far apart from each other.
The old man had a stubborn look on his face and ignored the young man Luo Huai.
Luo Huai drank a glass of water and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He felt that he had said more today than in the past fifteen years combined.
But it's useless.
No, he had to convince his grandfather before his mother came back.
The hot steam from the kettle on the table drifted away, and the atmosphere became increasingly quiet. The two of them took on an attitude of not moving unless the enemy moved.
Luo Huai thought about it for a long time. His grandfather felt that they were unable to support themselves and therefore did not want to divide the family. So why not just let him know that they were capable?
"Grandfather..." He just stood up when he was sternly stopped by Old Prince Luo, "Stop, stay there!"
Luo Huai had no choice but to continue sitting under the old prince's coercive gaze.
But as soon as he sat down——
Old Prince Luo escaped from the room very swiftly.
With a click, the door locked.
Luo Huai hurried over and pushed the door, but it didn't move. "Grandfather, open the door quickly."
Old Prince Luo breathed a sigh of relief. He had never known Huai'er was so eloquent. He was almost persuaded.
Fortunately, he has a strong character.
It’s better to go sleep next door for a while. Maybe you won’t want to separate at night!
But he didn't know that the real time for separation was at night!
Luo Huai listened to his grandfather's footsteps disappearing into the distance and sighed helplessly.
He couldn't get out of the main door, so he looked at the window on the top of the wall, wondering about the feasibility of getting out from here.
…
The sun sets in the west, and the evening mist is red.
Two carts stopped outside the post station.
The officers were stunned when they saw the two carts of things Liang He brought back.
"Boss, so many!"
"He even bought a donkey cart."
Liang He nodded nonchalantly, wondering how he could afford to buy so many things.
Chang Wu jumped down quickly, suppressing the desire to share, and asked everyone to come over to collect their things.
A short, thin man patted Chang Wu lightly and said, "This thing must have cost a lot of money, right?"
Chang Wu unloaded a bag of grain and said, "Needless to say. But, Lao Xin, don't be confused."
The officer named Lao Xin chuckled and said, "Am I that kind of person?"
Chang Wu rolled his eyes at him. He didn't know who he was, but now that he had money in his hands, he wanted to go to the gambling house.
He would borrow money from them every now and then.
"Just know your limits! Go back and rest quickly, or your leg injury won't heal."
Lao Xin grimaced and carefully touched his left leg. Damn, I made such a huge sacrifice last night!
Zhu Mingqing also got off the donkey cart. She yawned and paused for a moment, then looked at Captain Liang. "Thank you for your hard work, Captain Liang. I'll go back to my room first."
As for these supplies, Captain Liang and Chang Wu promised to keep them confidential. She took out a few pieces of clothing she had bought and handed the rest to the officers for safekeeping. When she needed them, she could just go directly to Chang Wu.
However, she probably didn't have many opportunities to use these things. She actually bought them specially as a gift to Captain Liang.
With this source, it will be much more convenient to take items from the space in the future.
"Don't worry, madam." Captain Liang patted the donkey cart, stepped forward and whispered, "We'll leave these items with us for now. If we need them, we'll let you know in advance."
Zhu Mingqing smiled slightly, so that she could replenish supplies at any time according to the situation.
She likes dealing with people who know their limits.
…
"Brother, hold Luo Xiao down for me. I must avenge what happened last year."
"Third brother, be careful."
As Zhu Mingqing stepped into the post station, he heard shouting from not far away. Then he saw several children fighting over there, and his expression turned cold.
Luo Xiao and Luo Wei were fighting, Luo Fu was pinned to the ground by Luo Dan, and a boy was curled up on the ground, holding his stomach in pain.
In addition, Luo Xiu from the third room was standing nearby, trying to stop the fight with an anxious look on her face, but she couldn't hide the ulterior motive of watching the fun in her eyes.
Zhu Mingqing no longer had any feelings for the two children and could not bear to see them being beaten in front of him.
Isn't this a slap in her face?
The sound of footsteps approached from afar. Luo Xiu looked up, startled at first, and then hurriedly called out, "Auntie."
The scene suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere became visibly tense.
Luo Fu's face was red and swollen, her eyes were blurred with tears, and she bit Luo Dan's right arm tightly, wishing she could tear off a piece of flesh.
The corner of Luo Xiao's mouth was also cracked by the beating, and he glared at Luo Wei fiercely.
"Get up!" Zhu Mingqing's voice was cold, and his eyes, as if hardened by ice, shot at Luo Wei and Luo Dan.
However, these two people seemed not to hear it.
Luo Dan raised his hand with a ferocious look on his face. When it was about to fall on Luo Fu's face, his arm was stopped and he was lifted up and thrown to the side.
“Ah—it hurts!”
Luo Dan's face was distorted, his arm was bitten and bleeding, the wound looked horrible.
She cried out loudly, "Someone is being beaten, help!"
Seeing this, Luo Wei swallowed his saliva, climbed up from Luo Xiao, and stood away from Zhu Mingqing.
"Why are you running? Come and help me." Luo Dan looked at Luo Wei while crying.
Luo Wei took two tentative steps forward, then wanted to take Luo Dan away quickly.
But Luo Dan wasn't afraid of Zhu Mingqing at all. She covered her wound and threatened, "Aunt, I'll definitely tell Grandmother!"
Luo Wei also glanced at the other party, then opened his mouth and said silently to Luo Xiao: "Coward!"
The implication is that you are nothing without your mother.
Luo Xiao is smaller than Luo Wei and not as tall as the other. He was already full of anger because of the beating he had just received, and now he was even more irritated.
He ignored the injuries on his face and got up as if he was determined to fight until the end of time.
But then someone grabbed him.
He turned his head and said angrily, "Let go."
Zhu Mingqing laughed instead, and said something heartbreaking: "If you can beat me, I'll let go. After all, I'm not the one getting beaten."
Luo Xiao's face was grim, and he said stubbornly: "None of your business!"
He thought he would have to talk some more, but Zhu Mingqing quickly let go.
Luo Xiao looked at her blankly, and then showed an expression of "as expected". You see, this woman has no feelings for them at all.
Fortunately, Zhu Mingqing didn't know what he was thinking, otherwise he would have given him a good beating.
It is you who let go, and it is you who blames others after letting go.
"Go ahead." She crossed her arms, nodding reassuringly at the Luo Wei siblings, with an expression that looked like she was enjoying the fun. "If you don't go now, you'll be gone forever."
It turned out that Luo Dan and Luo Wei ran away with Luo Wei after making threats.
And Luo Xiu disappeared without a trace.
Luo Xiao looked at the direction where the few people disappeared, feeling very frustrated. He wanted to catch up with them, but... he was really outnumbered.
But I don't want to be looked down upon by her.
His breath was stuck in his throat, and his face turned blue and purple unpredictably.
Zhu Mingqing curled his lips. These two children...
It’s stupid, indeed.
But he has some self-awareness and is not hopelessly stupid.
As for the child curled up on the ground, Zhu Mingqing felt sorry for him because his thin body was covered in bruises, but since the child did not ask her for help, she turned around and was about to leave.
"...Wait!" Luo Xiao didn't know what was going on in his mind, and blurted out, "You're doing this again!"
