Chapter 61: Sending Silver?
It's good that it doesn't stop, but as soon as it stops, those in the government find that they are very thirsty.
At this time, it was already noon, and they were sleepy and tired after a long day's journey, especially when they saw those who were doing things, drinking tea and eating pastries, and soon some people couldn't sit still.
Although Luo Lijuan and the others also prepared water and food, there was only a small amount, which was only enough for three or two people to eat and drink, and the rest of the people only had to look at each other.
"Hey, give us some of your tea and pastries!" Someone walked over to the people who were working.
Those who worked were plasterers and carpenters, as well as a few people who cut down and carried trees, and Shen Manqiu found a more flexible person from them, said some precautions, and then asked him to improvise, which can be regarded as a comfortable coping.
He asked people to bring some tea and pastries to the people in the government, and said with a smile: "We didn't bring much, and we had to work for half a day in the afternoon, so we can only give you so much." ”
"Where did you get all that!" As he spoke, the people in the government snatched most of the tea and pastries from them.
When the people who worked saw the government eating their cakes and drinking their tea, they all glared angrily, but they dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.
After a cup of tea, those people in the government all ate and drank well, and rested enough.
Luo Lijuan just glanced at the pavilion being built hastily, and gradually lost interest, and said tastelessly: "Cousin, continue on the road, or it will be dark when you go back." ”
"Got it, cousin!" Zhu Xiaoming nodded, turned around and impatiently said to those who were working: "Hurry up and get out of the way, don't delay the uncle to continue to hurry!" ”
When the people in the government heard this, they all stood up and looked at those who were working.
Seeing that Shen Manqiu's side was not moving, the workers had to slowly start moving the trees on the road. Just as Zhu Xiaoming and the others patted their butts and were about to leave, Shen Manqiu walked out of the hiding place and shouted, "Wait! ”
The people in the government were stunned when they heard this, and then their eyes lit up, and they couldn't imagine that such a beautiful woman would appear in this barren mountain and wilderness.
When Zhu Xiaoming saw Shen Manqiu again, he still had a feeling of amazement, and said curiously: "Why are you?" ”
"Cousin, do you know her?" When Luo Lijuan saw that the eyes of the people who had been paying attention to her all the time were attracted by this woman who suddenly appeared, she couldn't help but feel a little jealous and unhappy.
Seeing Zhu Xiaoming nodding helplessly, Shen Manqiu walked out with a smile and said with interest: "Master Zhu, knowing that our cottage is poor, did you send us silver again?" ”
Many of those people in the government had seen Shen Manqiu in the basin, and they were still a little unsure, but when they heard her say this, they couldn't help but remember that the beautiful and moving woman in front of them was the eldest lady of Qi Fengshan.
Zhu Xiaoming couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, he was taken captive by a female thief up the mountain, and his father spent a lot of ransom to let him go, which was an eternal pain in his heart. At this moment, when Shen Manqiu mentioned this matter in public, he did not hesitate to reveal his scars.
He looked around, and there didn't seem to be anyone else, and said with a gloomy face: "Whoever takes her down for me, this son will be rewarded!" ”
"Yo, I'm still annoyed!" Shen Manqiu looked at the people in the official mansion indifferently and slapped his palms three times.
Suddenly, dozens of figures appeared around and surrounded them.
Zhu Xiaoming's face changed, and he said with little confidence: "What do you want?" ”
Shen Manqiu smiled slightly and said, "Tea and pastries, don't you need to give money?" Don't you have to pay for crossings? ”
Luo Lijuan is not a stupid person, it is not difficult to guess from the conversation between the two that Zhu Xiaoming had suffered a loss at the hands of this woman before, and then understood that the eldest lady who was talking about by those who worked was her, and suddenly said: "It turns out that they are all your people!" ”
She heard that Shen Manqiu's purpose was just for money, but she didn't take things too seriously.
Shen Manqiu and Xiaohong saw her in the city that day, so they could naturally recognize her, but Luo Lijuan failed to recognize the beautiful woman in front of her who made her feel envious, jealous and hateful, and it was the ugly woman she didn't put in her eyes that day.
At this time, the person who reminded Zhu Xiaoming said something in his ear again.
Zhu Xiaoming was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect that she had actually drugged the tea, and then looked at the thieves around him, and he no longer had the courage to fight with the other party, and said weakly: "How many silver taels do you want?" ”
"Tolls, one tael for three people, one tael and one pot of tea, three taels of pastries and one plate, together is sixty-six taels, just six or six Shun!" Shen Manqiu said lightly. ?????
