Chapter 100 Dealing with the Slave
Then he stood up, clasped his fists towards An Xin who was at the front, and said, "May I know your name, young lady?"
Although An Xin dressed in men's clothes for convenience, she did not deliberately dress herself up as a man. Her every move was natural and generous, so people were not surprised when they could tell that she was a woman at a glance.
However, she did not perform the female kneeling salute. Instead, she put her hands together and performed a scholar's salute. "My name is An Xin, nice to meet you, General."
Yuchi Yong was dressed like a military general, so it was hard not to know that he was a military officer.
"Oh, Miss An, were you the ones who saved these guys?"
An Xin was not modest and told the truth, "I was hunting in the mountains and happened to see him, so I took advantage of it."
Yuchi Yong was stunned, then he looked at An Xin carefully.
When they came to pick up people, they did not hide their identities. Anyone who was not stupid could tell that they were of high status.
If she became the savior of these children, there would be many benefits, but this girl just thought she was saving people and didn't seem to want to accept this favor.
This, in turn, made General Yuchi, Madam Gao, the chief steward of Prince Nanjun's Mansion, the steward of Duke Cheng'en's Mansion, and the people from other families look at him with a higher regard.
"Humph, forget it if you don't want to thank me. You didn't even want to save us at that time anyway."
Yuchi Yi saw that An Xin seemed to want to get rid of them as if they were a problem, and didn't even want to admit that he saved them, so he said angrily.
An Xin took a glance at this arrogant little bully and felt that he really deserved a beating, so he poked the wound on his arm.
"Hiss!" Yuchi Yi's body trembled in pain.
An Xin saw him grinning, and then she smiled in satisfaction, "Whether you want to save me or not, I have saved you.
Otherwise, you would have become food for the hungry wolf yesterday, and today you might have been excreted by the big bad wolf and turned into poop."
Yuchi Yi gritted his teeth and seemed to want to refute, but he knew that what An Xin said was true.
It was basically impossible for them to escape from the wolf pack safely yesterday. It is an indisputable fact that An Xin saved them.
When General Yuchi saw his little bully being humiliated, he was not angry. Instead, his eyes lit up with joy.
An idea gradually formed in my mind.
Mrs. Gao knew that it was An Xin and others who saved her son, so she enthusiastically pulled An Xin and kept saying that she wanted to thank them.
As he was about to take down the things he brought from the car and give them to her, he was stopped by An Xin.
"We are also staying here temporarily. It is inconvenient to carry these things. You should not be polite."
Afterwards, several families thanked An Xin and his friends for saving their sons and young masters, asked where they lived, and said they would come to apologize after they returned.
Hu Zhuangtou and Cao Zhi saw that An Xin refused all those good things, and their eyes turned red with jealousy.
"It's fine if she doesn't give it to us! Since she lives in our village, we should also have a share of those thank-you gifts."
Cao Zhi looked at the shiny silks and satins, and many other good things, but An Xin refused them all and took them back by their host.
He was so angry that he poked Hu Zhuangtou's lower back.
Yuchi Yi and Si Wei, as well as Jiang Chenxi, Gao Tai, Chen Qibao, the son of the fourth-rank general Chen Gang, and two other teenagers.
The servants brought by their family helped them onto the carriage, and they all looked at An Xin and the others with strange eyes.
And before leaving, Si Wei, who had been taken care of by An Rui for a whole night, proudly invited him to visit him at the Prince of Nanjun's Mansion in the future.
Yuchi Yi glanced at Liu Boxing, who lived in the same room with him last night, opened his mouth, and then closed it again.
This guy is too talkative. As long as he is awake, he never stops talking. Although Yuchi Yi likes his heartlessness, he really can't stand this chatterbox.
Jiang Chenxi looked at An Xin calmly and said gently, "There are many books about the imperial examination in the Cheng'en Mansion, I heard from Master Leng last night.
You will take part in the imperial examination after the New Year. I can discuss with Uncle San and lend you the book. "
An Xin was delighted, thinking this was possible.
The books collected by the original owner's father, a Jinshi, were limited. If they could read the books collected by the aristocratic families, the knowledge of Li Ziyu and others would be greatly improved.
An Xin was not polite and said sincerely: "Thank you, Master Jiang."
When the other families saw the promise made by Jiang Chenxi, they knew that he was willing to lend his family's collection of books to An Xin and others in order to repay them for saving their lives.
After getting ready to go back, they discussed adding some more substantial food to repay the kindness to the little brat at home.
"See you later!" General Yuchi clasped his fists and said goodbye.
An Xin, Li Ziyu and the other six also put their hands together and returned the greeting, "The road is slippery, everyone please be careful."
Watched several families leave.
Hu Zhuangtou and Cao Zhi tried several times to curry favor with them but were ignored by General Yuchi and the other families. After they left, they attacked An Xin and the others.

"Our temple is too small to accommodate your big Buddha statues. You don't even look at all the good things. Do you really think that by not accepting thank-you gifts, those nobles will look up to you?
In the future, you can use this favor to ask those companies to help you more. I think you are just dreaming."
An Xin and the others looked at Cao Zhi without any emotion in their eyes, as if they were looking at a clown.
At this time, Hu Zhuangtou also looked at An Xin and the others with a gloomy face, and said in an unhappy tone: "You have lived here for four days, and there are also those teenagers who have just been taken away by their families.
I won’t ask you how much you charge for food and lodging, one hundred taels per person is not too much, right?”
After saying this, Hu Zhuangtou looked at An Xin and the others with relief. He wanted to find someone to vent his frustration at being looked down upon by those nobles.
There are several scholars from other places here, they are ready-made scapegoats.
As a small village head, he didn't dare to offend the nobles in the capital, but he didn't care so much about these scholars who came from other places and had some spare money at home.
After all, his master used to be a third-rank Huaihua general in the capital. Even if the old general resigned and returned to his hometown, these servants could not be bullied by just anyone.
"Give me the money now, and get out of here."
Hu Zhuangtou scolded rudely.
Cao Zhi looked at the young Li Ziyu and his companions with pride and regret.
She had long been fed up with the old man Hu Zhuangtou, and when she saw these young and handsome boys, she almost drooled at their greed.
She had tried every possible means to seduce one of them to have sex with her, but no one paid any attention to her, which made her very angry.
At this time, most of the servants on the farm gathered in front of the door.
Another old woman, accompanied by a young woman and a burly man, stood in the crowd and watched Hu Zhuangtou and his two men committing suicide.
An Xin and the others couldn't help laughing when they saw Hu Zhuangtou's smug look on his face.
Then An Xin and Li Ziyu looked at each other, and moved aside, giving the home court to his real owner.
Only then did Liu Boxing look like a young master. His face was as gloomy as water and his eyes were as cold as stars as he looked at Hu Zhuangtou.
At this time, the old woman walked out of the crowd with her daughter and son-in-law, and knelt in front of Liu Boxing with a plop.
