Chapter 42: Just to Survive
In the eyes of the elders of the He, Lu, and Pei families, starvation was a minor offense, while a loss of chastity was a major one. Now, someone from each of their families had been kidnapped by thieves and sent to be used for entertainment, which was a slap in their face.
It's good to be alive in exile.
Those women must have sacrificed themselves for the family, and were not abducted by thieves.
No one at home got any benefit.
Scarface Peng stayed in the room and never came out.
He, the man with a mustache, and Old Yellowhead belong to different camps.
I won't cut off other people's financial resources.
But not wanting to help the evil, Peng Scarface wrote a secret letter in his room. When he opened the back window, a white dove flew down and landed on the windowsill.
Scarface Peng first fed the pigeon steamed bread crumbs, then sealed the secret letter and tied it to the pigeon's leg, watching it flap its wings and fly away.
The noise outside alarmed the owner of the inn.
The poor shopkeeper was grabbed by the collar and scolded by other customers:
"Your inn is colluding with thieves. Where are you selling the women you kidnapped?"
The shopkeeper had gray hair and a trembling body like a puddle of mud.
Thick lips trembled:
"Sir, I would never dare to do such a thing even if I had ten times the courage. Our shop has been open here for over twenty years. Nothing like this has ever happened before. Please be kind, Sir."
The shopkeeper didn't reply to the customer.
A pair of cloudy old eyes looked at Huang Chatou pleadingly.
The waiter next to him also hurriedly explained:
"Sir, we are open for business. How can we do such things?"
Huang Chatou remained silent.
The man with the mustache calculated the number of people who had been abducted, and it was still less than the number mentioned above. Then he looked at the women peeking out of the houses, and he felt that he had just brushed shoulders with the richest man in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
I have to say.
These exiled prisoners all look good.
Especially those young girls and wives, even if they are thin and haggard, you can still see that they have a good foundation. The daughters of official families have the heritage and temperament accumulated by their families.
It is incomparable to the specially trained skinny horses and singing girls.
Such women are especially popular among wealthy businessmen and generals. With a little training, even wealthy families are willing to have fun with them.
The man with a mustache squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Yunyue.
There was a hint of cruelty on the corner of his mouth. "Were they kidnapped or did they collude with outsiders to escape? We still have to say."
Several people from the He family looked at each other and silently swallowed what they wanted to say.
The Pei family members didn't say anything else.
The other families didn't dare to say anything more.
If they run away, they will be held jointly responsible. It is useless even if they say they did not run away.
It all depends on the officer's words.
Others will not meddle in other people's business.
The person who helps out will not meddle in other people's business. Letting go of the shopkeeper's hand, the rugged-looking man said in a deep voice:
"I'm disturbing my sleep."
After saying that, he left without caring about anything else.
The man with the mustache looked at Shen Yunyue sinisterly, "Ms. Shen. I underestimated you."
"I don't understand what you mean, officer. We are a family with only one life, and we are just trying to survive." Shen Yunyue didn't look timid at all. She stood at the door with her small body and looked at him.
Ignore his warning and threatening eyes.
After looking at each other for a while, the man with a mustache looked away first.
In his heart, he was wondering what kind of person Shen Yunyue, this young girl, was. No one in the capital had ever heard of such a noble lady. Instead, the girls of the He family were more famous.
Because of this matter.
No one wanted to sleep anymore.
Shen Yunyue looked at the Shen family members who were still in a coma and did not go to the waiter to ask for a doctor. She just let them sleep a little longer while the drug was working.
"Yingfeng. You stay here and guard it. Don't let anyone take advantage of the opportunity."
"yes."
"Yun Yue. Where are you going?" Fu Xuanheng supported himself with his hands and sat on the wheelchair, turning it around to go out with her.
"Brother, please calm down and go back to have a good rest." Shen Yunyue slapped her forehead in pain when she saw Fu Xuanheng sitting in a wheelchair.
Fu Xuanheng's expression was cold, "Do you dislike me?"
I complained in my heart, who dares to despise you, the big villain? But I had to coax him:
"It's not that I dislike you. It's just that things are very chaotic outside right now, and you might become their target."
"I can protect myself."
"You only have a few hidden weapons. Fu Xuanheng, there are too many people who want you dead."
Hearing Shen Yunyue's words, Fu Xuanheng silently loosened his clenched hands.
There is no time to coax this arrogant boy.
Shen Yunyue went out and closed the door. There were several people whispering at the door of each house.
She came to the stable.
"Uncle Si."
"Ms. Yue."
Ah Si fell from a big tree nearby.
"What did you see?"
Ah Si approached Shen Yunyue and whispered a few words, then frowned and said:
"Ms. Yue. It doesn't look like this is your first time doing this."
"Let's not worry about it. As long as the Shen family is together, it's fine. But he has added another mark to my list of offenses against the mustache. From now on, you should pay more attention to his whereabouts and the people he associates with."
"Yes. I understand."
"Uncle Si, be careful, otherwise you and Yingfeng will be eliminated." Shen Yunyue repeatedly reminded him.
Ah Si nodded.
He and Yingfeng were obtained through a backdoor deal in exchange for a secret.
Normally, it's no problem to mingle with the exiles, but if you offend the police, you will be cleared out.
Shen Yunyue was still resentful of the incident with the mustache, and she was also thinking about breaking up the relationship between him and Aunt Feng. Her eyes were rolling around, and she was bargaining with the little fool.
"Little fool, give me a tasteless invisibility pill."
It was rare for the little fool to see Shen Yunyue, who was acting badly, take the initiative to do business, so he became much more talkative.
"You have to spend money to buy tasteless invisibility pills."
"Who are you looking down on? Do you think there is not enough silver in my space?" Shen Yunyue's words were full of pride.
"You are incredibly poor. Your assets are really pitifully small. Can you broaden your horizons? Don't compare your wealth with that of poor people." The little fool was speechless.
None of her spatial assets can be turned on to exchange for things from other worlds.
What's there to be so arrogant about?
This was too much. Shen Yunyue used her consciousness to slam the computer screen fiercely. "Give it to me first. I'll take care of this first. I'll pay you back when I make money later."
The Piranha Plant shook its body.
Spit out a pill from your mouth.
"Can we change places? This place has bad breath, right?" Shen Yunyue said with disgust, and quickly took the pill and put it into her mouth.
The Piranha Plant opened its mouth angrily and secreted more mucus.
The little fool cried out: I'm dying of the suffocation.
The Piranha Plant laughed even more happily.
Shen Yunyue took the invisibility pill and swaggered open the door of the man with the mustache. It was like a gust of cold wind blowing open the door. The man with the mustache was drinking inside.
Squinting his eyes, he thought it was Feng Xiao'e and Zhou Ying approaching, but when he turned around, he saw a cold wind blowing towards him. He cursed a few times, then stood up and closed the door.
"Damn it, why don't you come over here and serve me?"
Shen Yunyue walked towards the bag he had put his things in. She reached out and pinched it, feeling the thickness, and saw that there was quite a bit of silver and banknotes inside.
Take away the things in the bag and put them into the two small clods of earth in the space.
He went to the head of the bed, touched the pillow, and took away the things under the pillow.
When Shen Yunyue was about to leave.
The door was opened.
Zhou Ying and Feng Xiao'e rushed in, pushing the door open.
One said, "You stepped on my foot." The other muttered, "You got caught on my clothes."
"What are you arguing about?" The man with the mustache was not in a good mood today, and the atmosphere in the room was very low.
"Master, what's wrong?" Zhou Yingxian rushed over, twisted his waist and sat on the mustache man's legs. "Let me have a drink with you, and tomorrow will be smooth sailing for you."
Feng Xiao'e also rushed over.
No one closed the door, and Shen Yunyue just walked out.
Feng Xiao'e turned her head to look at the door, as if something had just flashed by.
