Chapter 2 Visiting New Neighbors

Bai Xiaoman walked forward with bated breath, always paying attention to the changes behind her, maybe her action was too obvious, there was a sound of footsteps from behind, Bai Xiaoman exhaled, turned around, and several masked black-clothed people quietly moved their steps, half-surrounding her, Bai Xiaoman took a look, all the best escape routes had been blocked by them.

Seeing Bai Xiaoman's unflustered appearance, the people in black didn't take any action, and it seemed that they were planning to stalemate like this.

Bai Xiaoman laughed: "In the middle of the night, I thought you were going to invite me to tea?" It seems that I have thought too much, you are willing to stay in the middle of the night, please, I will not accompany you if I have something to do, go first. ”

As soon as the words fell, one of the men in black stepped forward, and his voice was deliberately low: "This girl, holding such a valuable item, must be from an extraordinary background, my master wants to get acquainted, and asks the girl to move." ”

After listening to this, Bai Xiaoman couldn't help but scold: "Damn! Black shop! Are you colluding with Yutong? If anyone goes and becomes something of value, you will stalk and kidnap him? That's too immoral, isn't it? Aren't you afraid of retribution? If you do this business, you will be imprisoned sooner or later! ”

The man in black didn't seem to expect Bai Xiaoman to curse, and was stunned for a second before saying, "Girl, don't do this kind of vain struggle, no matter how much you delay time, it's useless." ”

Bai Xiaoman smiled slightly: "I don't have to delay time, just a few of you, you want to take me away?" Just kidding! ”

The people in black looked at each other, no longer wasting words with her, and pounced forward, Bai Xiaoman quickly took a few steps back, hurriedly turned around, and the sound of a fight with ping-pong weapons behind him came.

The feet did not stop, and after walking almost two feet away, Bai Xiaoman stopped, and when he turned around, he only saw the men in black falling to the ground one after another, only the man in black who spoke just now and a man in purple shirt with a strong and upright figure were inseparable. Bai Xiaoman clasped his hands on his chest, with a look of watching a good show.

After fighting for about dozens of rounds, the man in black who spoke just now seemed to be a little invincible, whistled, and quickly retreated backwards, the man in purple shirt was about to chase, and several men who fell to the ground just now had already gotten up, and after distinguishing the form, they wanted to withdraw, Bai Xiaoman shouted: "Catch a live mouth!" ”

As soon as these words came out, several men each took something out of their pockets and threw it on the ground, and a thick smoke suddenly rose all around, and after a while, the smoke dissipated, and there was no trace of people on the street.

The man in the purple shirt who came to the rescue, although he was not masked, wore a hat with a very high brim, and only a few flickering lanterns on both sides of the street projected dim lights, so he couldn't see his appearance clearly. He kept his back to Bai Xiaoman, and he didn't seem to have the intention of turning his head to say hello.

Bai Xiaoman smiled: "Muller, I haven't seen you for a long time, I know that the smoothness of the past two months or so is not for nothing, you have been following me." ”

The man called MΓΌller did not answer, and one fell into it, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Bai Xiaoman raised his eyebrows, didn't chase or ask, and swaggered back to the inn.

After packing up and living in the new house, Bai Xiaoman felt comfortable, scurrying around in the yard, climbing the wall for a while, enjoying the freedom he had never had. This is her home, she can do whatever she wants, who cares?

After staying for a while, she suddenly felt deserted, Bai Xiaoman glanced at the huge room, she was the only one, it was fine during the day, if it was night, wouldn't it be scared to death, there was not even a person who lit candles and lanterns, she had to do everything herself, and when she said something in the middle of the night, the echo spread far and wide.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt panicked, and Bai Xiaoman decided that the first thing he did when he moved into his new home was to hire a few servants to come back and let the family accumulate popularity.

But where to hire, can you ensure that the hired people are capable and down-to-earth? Bai Xiaoman knows almost nothing about Jincheng, so he can't go to the place where he usually eats, drinks and has fun, right?

Suddenly a flash of inspiration, by the way, what did the guy in Yaxing say, saying that although this area is not a gathering place where the eunuchs live, but there is a Qing Yuan, which is the most famous merchant home in Xuanguo, rich and rivals the country, although the family has been in business for generations, has never entered the official career, but has a very close relationship with the royal family, it is rumored that with their funding, the Yu family was able to lead the Xuanguo and establish a dynasty, so they are not relatives of the emperor, better than relatives of the emperor, there is also a saying in Jincheng, called Ning stealing the palace and not entering the Qing Yuan.

If you steal the eunuch's house, they will use the power of the government to clean you up, but the people who provoked Qingyuan, they didn't go through the government at all, just a word, some Jianghu organizations are willing to work for them, and they will make you die, and they haven't reasoned yet.

That's him! Don't they all say that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, go and visit your neighbors! With such a high-quality resource, of course, we must have a good relationship, and it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree!

Bai Xiaoman got up, picked out a few eye-catching and chic objects from the luggage, found a delicate box to put it in, changed his clothes, and picked out a moon-white coat to put on, so that he looked solemn and pure, women, you still have to be good at using your advantages.

Bai Xiaoman looked at the person in the mirror and touched her face, she is now completely adapted to this body, and she is quite satisfied with the posture of this body.

When the door opened, it was a white-faced little guy, Bai Xiaoman sighed in his heart, he was worthy of a big family, and even the doorman's appearance was so thoughtful.

Explain the meaning clearly, the little guy said; "Please wait a minute, and tell the little one."

Bai Xiaoman responded with a smile, look, he is still so polite when he speaks. Those who can train such an outstanding subordinate must not be ordinary people, and the favorability of the master of Qingyuan in his heart suddenly climbed by several hundred points.

The little servant told her, and the master invited her in for a while.

Along the way to the hall, Bai Xiaoman couldn't stop admiring again and again, the winding path is quiet, the fragrance is true, the green bamboo and beautiful water, the garden is simply a copy of the paradise, after coming in, I feel relaxed and happy, the whole body is comfortable, not at all like the magnificent decoration of other rich merchants, I can't wait for the plates, dishes and chopsticks to wear with gold, just write a 'I am very rich', cheesy. Bai Xiaoman thought to herself, if she lived in such a place, she would definitely cultivate herself and be a rich idler.

In the distance, I saw that the porch was open, and there was a person standing in the hall, with a very beautiful posture, long hair like a waterfall, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but his good temperament could be seen from afar, Bai Xiaoman was secretly happy in his heart, could it be that he met a superb here, the legendary rich and handsome? Haha, then she's really earned!

As I got closer and closer to the door, I became more and more excited, and I couldn't help myself. Bai Xiaoman silently lowered his head to show politeness, so as not to make the master of Qingyuan feel abrupt, especially since she was now with a straight face.

When he stepped into the hall and heard the other party's polite greeting, the moment Bai Xiaoman raised his head, it was as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Almost blurted out: "How are you?" ”

The person in front of her was none other than the accomplice of the man in the green shirt who almost slighted her in the Lanyue Pavilion, the man in white.

He is still dressed in white today, looking harmless to humans and animals, limited by the situation that night, Bai Xiaoman did not look at his appearance carefully, and now he looks at it in broad daylight, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a tall nose bridge, and a positive lip, but the color is very light, not ruddy, making his whole person look extraordinarily white.

Bai Xiaoman muttered in a low voice: "I'm white every day, what about acting and chatting?" ”

The man in white didn't hear this sentence clearly, looked at Bai Xiaoman's eyes a little puzzled, and introduced himself: "Down there is the owner of Qingyuan, Qingyang Xiaocen, the girl's surname?" ”

If Bai Xiaoman hadn't known about their 'marriage' two days ago, he would almost have thought that Qingyang Xiaocen would also use this ancient method of pickup.

Bai Xiaoman pointed to the clothes on his body and said with a smile: "My surname is Bai, Bai Xiaoman, I am your new neighbor, and I am here to visit him today." ”

Qingyang Xiaocen smiled again and said, "I saw that the girl was familiar with her eyes, have you ever seen it?" ”

Bai Xiaoman snorted with a smile on his face, thinking: Of course I have seen it, the old lady was almost insulted by your accomplices!

Bai Xiaoman didn't want to say much about that day, his favorability towards Qingyang Xiaocen declined, a man who is willing to visit the Qinglou with his fox friends and dog friends, what kind of good bird can he be?

Qingyang Xiaocen stared at her for a long time, revealing a strange expression of sudden realization and then a strange expression, and after looking at it for a while, he finally believed that the girl in front of him was the man who was almost rude to Yu Zifei that day. No matter why Bai Xiaoman disguised himself as a man, their behavior was inappropriate after all, and an apologetic look flashed on his face, explaining: "I'm really sorry that night, I offended the girl, and I hope the girl doesn't mind." ”

Bai Xiaoman laughed dryly: "It's okay, nothing happened in the end, your friend drank too much, and it is inevitable that he will lose his temper when he is drunk, I can understand." ”

Qingyang Xiaocen smiled lightly and thanked him, and then looked at Bai Xiaoman's eyes a little more embarrassed, opened his mouth, and seemed to want to explain a few words, Bai Xiaoman didn't want to continue the topic, pretending to look around, and Qingyang Xiaocen didn't speak again.

Bai Xiaoman only thinks that Qingyang Xiaocen is fake, obviously a hooligan, and pretending to be a cultural person. Looking at the surrounding scenery anymore, she couldn't get into her eyes, so she turned around and didn't say a word about the events of that night: "Mr. Qingyang, you have extraordinary taste, as soon as you enter Qingyuan, it is like entering a fairyland on earth." ”

Qingyang Xiaocen smiled slightly, did not answer, but asked: "I just heard that the owner of the courtyard next door is coming, and the girl has become a neighbor of Qingyuan, I don't know what to do when I came today?" ”

Bai Xiaoman was not polite to him, and asked: "I want to hire a few servants, but I am new to Jincheng and I am not familiar with Jincheng, and I don't know where to hire reliable people, so I want to ask Mr. Qingyang if you can give some advice." ”

Qingyang Xiao Cen groaned slightly, raised his hand and shouted: "Jing Zhuo! ”

A thin man walked in quickly, bowed his head and asked, "What do you command, sir?" ”

"Take this white girl to Teahouse Street, go to the shop where we hired maids and subordinates, and choose a few competent people."

Fang Jingzhuo looked at Bai Xiaoman in a little surprise, but he was used to carrying out all of Qingyang Xiaocen's orders and did not question it.

Qingyang Xiaocen looked at Bai Xiaoman and said: "This is the head of my Qingyuan, Fang Jingzhuo, he is very familiar with the inside and outside of Jincheng, today he accompanies Miss Bai, not only the maid, if you have other needs, you can also tell him, he can help." ”

Bai Xiaoman didn't expect Qingyang Xiaocen to be so generous, and he was speechless for a while.

Fang Jingzhuo turned to Bai Xiaoman and nodded slightly: "Wait for Miss Bai's orders." ”
