Chapter 36: Robbery

After listening to Shen Xiao's instructions, after Qin Feng saluted, he retreated, Shen Xiao leaned back in his chair, thinking of what Qin Feng had just said, his brows couldn't help but furrow slightly.

There was a knock on the 'door' outside the 'door', the subordinates had prepared hot water, Shen Xiao commanded, the subordinates carried the bath bucket in, and a maid put the pastries on the table, and then withdrew with the subordinates.

Glancing at the pastries on the table, Shen Xiao found a change of clothes, went around behind the screen, and changed clothes and bathed.

…………

After leaving her mother's house, Yan Su returned to the Hou Mansion, she didn't know that at this time, the Hou Ye Shen Xiao had returned, and she didn't know that during this time, her every move had been known by Shen Xiao.

In order to return to the Hou Mansion as soon as possible, Yan Su took a small road, which was very remote, and there were few people who usually walked.

"Stop!" As he was walking, a voice suddenly came from behind him, Yan Su paused, and continued to walk forward without looking back.

"Tell me about you, little girl, you stop for me!" The people behind didn't expect that after hearing the voice, Yan Su still walked forward, and he spoke again, with a little more anger in his voice.

Ignoring the voice behind her, Yan Su continued to speed up her pace and returned towards the Hou Mansion, at this time she vaguely regretted in her heart, she had a hundred taels of silver tickets on her body, and she shouldn't have taken the path.

The people behind saw that Yan Su refused to stop, and they were immediately annoyed, he shouted at the front, and immediately someone came out and blocked Yan Su's way.

It was a man in tattered clothes, Yan Su estimated that he was 'touching', and the person behind him was not much better.

Someone blocked the way, and the footsteps naturally stopped, Yan Su turned his head to look behind him, and behind him, there were three people who were also dressed in tatters.

Looking at the costumes of several people, Yan Su estimated that they should be beggars in the capital, but because they formed gangs, they were more courageous than ordinary beggars.

After all, Yan Su is a 'woman', and she has taken such a remote path, plus she is only one person, so it is naturally easy to become the target of others.

"What are you going to do?" Although she was a little flustered in her heart, Yan Su understood that panic could not solve the problem, and she had to find a way to escape from these people's obstacles.

If you are not far ahead, you can turn into the street, and as long as you can break through the man in front of you and run out of this road, you will be considered safe.

"What? Keep the money on you, and we will let you leave safe and sound, otherwise......" The leader was the man who spoke behind Yan Su before, and his eyes looked at Yan Su with a hint of ill will.

You know, these beggars usually beg on the streets, and eating is still a problem, not to mention anything else, for them, in addition to the 'women', men can also solve the problem.

On weekdays, they are looking for someone to solve it, but now, they suddenly met a lonely 'woman', and if possible, they would not let it go.

Hearing the leading beggar say this, Yan Su couldn't help frowning, if it was only the idea of making money, it would be okay to say, but if it was even the idea of people, it would be more troublesome.

"What are you doing?" Just as Yan Su was about to speak, a voice suddenly came, attracting everyone's attention.

"Yan Zhong?" When she saw the person behind the beggar, Yan Su couldn't help but speak in surprise, she didn't expect that Yan Zhong would follow behind her.

"Miss, Madam doesn't worry about you, so let the old slave follow you." Hearing Yan Su's voice, Yan Zhong hurriedly spoke, and when he finished talking to Yan Su, Yan Zhong set his eyes on the beggars.

"You people, don't leave quickly, do you know whose family our young lady is?"

When Yan Zhong said this, he naturally hoped to scare these beggars away, after all, there were only two of them, and the beggars combined were four.

"Don't be afraid, he is just scaring us, who of you has ever seen everyone show off when they go out of the 'door', and they are the only ones?"

The leading beggar smiled and spoke, with disdain in his eyes, obviously, Yan Zhong's words did not scare him.

Hearing what the leading beggar said, the beggars who had 'exposed' their fears before suddenly returned to normal, and they looked at Yan Su and Yan Zhong with fierce eyes, wondering how to do it?

Seeing that he didn't scare this group of beggars, Yan Zhong's heart couldn't help but worry, no matter what, his own young lady is also a 'girl', how can he entangle with these beggars?

It's me, I'm not afraid of anything, even if I get beaten a few times, it doesn't matter.

Qin Feng squatted on the roof not far away, looking at the situation below, he couldn't help frowning.

I have to say that this new lady's courage is really big enough, a 'girl', not to mention going out alone, even picking a small road, isn't this obviously asking for trouble for herself?

But...... Looking at an alley not far away, there was a young 'girl' hidden there, who seemed to know the new lady.

Qin Feng estimated that the young 'girl' might be the maid in the house, because he knew that the master was back, so he deliberately came out to find the new lady, but when he encountered such a thing, he didn't dare to go out.

"Yan Zhong, leave me alone, go directly to the official! Let's just say that in broad daylight, there are a few beggars who intend to commit murder against the 'daughter' of the Ministry of Works, if the official doesn't care, you tell him, if something happens to me, Shen Houye will not let him go! ”

The situation was deadlocked, Yan Su looked at Yan Zhong, and when he saw Yan Zhong's embarrassed face, he shouted at him.

"Miss, how can this be done? The old slave must not leave you alone, but you can rest assured, even if you die, the old slave will protect you, this is the capital in the end, if these people really dare to be unfavorable to you, the old man and the young master will not let them go! ”

Listening to Yan Su's words, Yan Zhong hurriedly responded, and the beggars couldn't help but look at each other one by one as they listened to the words of the two.

"Little lady, whose 'daughter' did you just say you are?" The leading beggar looked at Yan Su, because Yan Su was wearing a veil, so the beggar couldn't see Yan Su's appearance clearly at all, only knew that she was a 'woman'.

"Ministry of Works, Yan Zhe." Although he didn't know why the other party asked, Yan Su still said it, "The one behind you is the housekeeper of the Yan Mansion, Yan Zhong, the big housekeeper of Yan, if you don't believe it, just send someone to ask." ”

In fact, Yan Zhong is not a housekeeper in the house, but he is the son of a family, and now there is no housekeeper in the house, and Yan Zhong basically does everything in the house, so he can also be said to be a housekeeper.

"No need to ask, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu is indeed called Yan Zhe, Miss, I'm really sorry, the villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, I don't know that you are Lord Yan's daughter, otherwise I wouldn't dare to stop you, you go."

I thought that after the leading beggar asked, he would have the same disdainful expression as just now, but he didn't expect that after listening to Yan Su, the leading beggar arched his hand at Yan Su with a very respectful attitude.

"No more robbers?" Looking at the beggar in the lead, Yan Su asked suspiciously.

"Don't dare, you are Lord Yan's daughter, how dare we rob? Don't hide it from the eldest lady, if it wasn't for Lord Yan's help, our brothers would have starved to death a long time ago, where can we still stand here? ”

"Lord Yan is our savior, reborn parents, if we rob your money, wouldn't it be ungrateful?"

"As for why the villain believes that you are the eldest lady, it is because the situation in Lord Yan's family is basically known to everyone, and it is possible for you to go out without taking anyone with you."

Hearing Yan Su's question, the leading beggar waved his hand again and again, "It was all a misunderstanding just now, please don't take it to heart the eldest lady, the villains will leave, the eldest lady will go slowly." ”

Seeing that the beggar in the lead was like this, Yan Su nodded, "Since that's the case, then you can go, but ...... Things like robbing roads, don't do it in the future, people are doing it, and it's not a good thing. ”

"Hey, don't hide it from Miss, a few of us have only been like this recently, but don't worry, we haven't hurt anyone, although we ...... just now It was very disrespectful to you just now, but don't worry, you are the first person we robbed. ”

After hearing what Yan Su said, the leading beggar couldn't help but smile bitterly and said to Yan Su.

Although they looked fierce and vicious just now, and they were very disrespectful to Yan Su, but they were all pretended, they tried to rob the road in the past few days, but they didn't dare to really do it, it can be said that Yan Su was the first person they robbed.

Hearing the lead beggar say this, Yan Su nodded, she thought about it, and took out a few taels of broken silver from her body.

"Take this money, you take it, I don't have much silver on me, don't rob it."

"Look at all of them are not very old, but they also have a lot of strength, even if they go to find some work, it is better than being a beggar or a robbery, especially robbery, it is a crime, this is the capital, if you are caught, then you will never be able to come out again."

Walking in front of the leading beggar, Yan Su handed the silver in his hand to him, because he paid attention to the rules, so Yan Su's hand was not 'exposed'.

"Or, if you can trust me, take the money first, clean up yourself, and then find some work, and when I have the ability to open my own shop, let you go to my shop as a buddy."

Looking at the silver handed over by Yan Su, the leading beggar couldn't help but be a little surprised, although the silver was not much, but there were a few taels, enough for a few of them to 'spend' for a while.

"If you find any work, go to Yan's Mansion and talk to Yan Zhong, so that I can know where you are, and it will be convenient to find you in the future."

Seeing that the leading beggar did not accept the silver, Yan Su spoke again and said to him, and when he finished speaking, Yan Su looked in the direction of Yan Zhong.

"Yan Zhong, if they look for you, you must remember where they are, do you know?"

"Yes, don't worry, Miss." Hearing Yan Su's voice, Yan Zhong hurriedly spoke and responded to the matter.
