Chapter 15: Miss Lan Family
"It is said that there has been a man of the year in Yangcheng recently. Although this person is a woman, her ability is not small. Definitely a hot character in Yangcheng right now. ”
In the teahouse on Yangcheng East Street, a storyteller is telling a story on stage.
"Who does this old gentleman ask?"
"It's Zhuang Jinse, the owner of a tavern!" As soon as the storyteller slapped the waking wood, the eyes of everyone on the stage were attracted.
Through the gauze curtain, a young girl in the private room listened very carefully.
"This Zhuang Jinse was originally the only daughter of the owner of the Zhuang Tavern. After her father died, her uncle ran away owing a huge sum of money. Leave her alone to pay the bill. ”
How should an orphan girl cope with arrears? Jinse's plight was sympathetic to everyone, and many people shouted that her uncle was not a thing.
She didn't give up, and changed the name of the tavern and started all over again. A female streamer opened the tavern with a good voice. It's funny that there is a tavern that doesn't buy alcohol! The storyteller deliberately stopped.
"The milk tea, fruit tea, coffee, and cakes on the bulletin board are sold in the tavern. No one knew about these things before, and no one had tasted them. They are all present in a tavern. ”
A woman created the fame of the tavern with her own efforts, and became the guest of the richest man in Yangcheng.
The storyteller's story was a success, and everyone was still talking about it after it was over.
The woman in the private room walks out wearing a hood, "Fluttershy, go and reward the storyteller." ”
The maidservant behind her answered the next voice and rewarded the storyteller.
The storyteller thanked him again and again, this East Street is really a rich place, and you can get a reward by saying a paragraph casually.
"Miss likes Zhuang Jinse's story very much?" Fluttershy walks slowly down the street after the girl.
The girl just chuckled: "She is free and can live the life she wants." When will I be able to live a free life. I'd love to see a woman like that. ”
The hood obscured her countenance, and her voice was graceful and beautiful, with a hint of weariness in it.
This young lady is a nobleman of Yangcheng, the second lady of the Lan family, Lan Yuyan.
The Lan family is a family, and there were concubines in the palace three generations ago. Bringing infinite glory to the family, the Lan family is a special existence in this Yang City.
The Lan family's eyes are above the top and they are not in the company of mortals. In their hearts, only people from wealthy families can match them.
And Lan Yuyan is an alternative inside, she is the ** in the family, and there is an elder brother on it. As the only girl in the family, her family demanded a lot of from her.
Under the pressure, there will be resistance, she doesn't like to learn female virtues and female precepts, and she doesn't like to be locked up at home as a canary.
She yearns for freedom and the outside world.
In her heart, being able to be as unrestrained as Zhuang Jinse and think whatever she wants is really a dream life.
"Miss, there are silk flowers sold over there, and the style is so special." Seeing that the young lady was in a low mood, she diverted the topic.
Looking at the various forms of silk flowers on the stall, Lan Yuyan's mood was better.
She picks two silk flowers at random and gives one to Fluttershy.
Fluttershy pulls out her purse and pays, unaware that someone is already eyeing her behind her.
She had just hung the money bag on her waist when a hand reached out from behind her back and quickly snatched the money bag from her waist.
By the time the lightning flashed, the thief had already run away.
"There are thieves! Catch the thief! Fluttershy screams in horror.
The money bag was sewn by the young lady herself, and it also contained the jade pendant of the eldest young master. If it falls into the hands of outsiders, Madame will strip her skin!
Lan Yuyan was also frightened, and the thief ran past her just now.
This is East Street, the richest place in Yangcheng. No one thought that someone would dare to steal things on the street on East Street.
Fluttershy doesn't dare to leave Lan Yuyan's side, she and Miss come out alone to avoid the guards. If something happens to Lan Yuyan, she won't have to live.
Just as she was in a dilemma, a man rushed out of the crowd and chased after her.
"Stop!" The thief heard the sound and ran faster.
The man's speed was not slow, but the thief was faster. Dodging left and right, he was about to shake off the man when he opened his eyes.
No one expected that a harmless girl on the road silently stretched out her feet.
A few days after the money theft incident, Zhuang Jinse finally came out of the grief and anger of being stolen.
Qian Guangren invited her to sit in the Moon Tower again, ready to borrow her money to tide over the difficulties.
Jin Se refused Boss Qian's help, she had already taken on a debt of 500 taels, and she really didn't want to carry some more.
When she came out of the Moon Tower, she saw this scene.
Zhou Zimu was chasing a guy who didn't look like a good person, so she silently stretched out a righteous kick.
The thief tripped over her and fell into the mud.
"Oops, oops." The thief broke his nose and bled straight out, and knocked out a tooth.
"Are you alright?" Zhou Zimu chased after him.
Jin Se smiled: "It's okay, I'll help you catch someone." ”
Zhou Zimu also smiled: "This guy dares to steal things on the street, I'll take him back first." ”
He caught the thief in three or two strokes, leaving him immobile.
"Who are you? Why meddle! The thief yelled at Zhou Zimu viciously, "Let go of me, otherwise you will look good!" ”
"Yangcheng catches quickly, Zhou Zimu. Follow me back to the Yamen! ”
As soon as he heard the yamen, the thief's face immediately turned pale: "Big brother, I have something to say." I was wrong! ”
"Big Brother Guancha." Fluttershy chases after her. She didn't expect to catch the thief, but she didn't expect someone to help.
Lan Yuyan, who is also worried about her eldest brother's jade pendant, also comes with Fluttershy.
"Thank you very much for your help, dare to ask the girl's name?" Lan Yuyan saluted Jin Se. Jin Seleng for a second, and hurriedly returned the salute.
It was the first time she had returned the favor in ancient times, and she moved quickly, trying to finish it before others saw it.
"My surname is Zhuang, Zhuang Jinse. It's nothing, I'm just here to help. My house has also been stolen recently, and this kind of person is the most hateful. ”
Thinking of the 100 taels of silver she had been stolen, Jin Se's heart hurt again, and she really wanted to beat up that thief.
I heard that the girl I saw was the Zhuang Jinse I wanted to see. Lan Yuyan grabbed Jin Se's hand: "Miss Zhuang, I didn't expect to see you here." ”
Jin Se didn't see himself going out, and he could still help others. The other party enthusiastically expressed his gratitude to the door.
Zhou Zimu, who had been left to the side for a long time, returned the money bag to Lan Yuyan, and he caught the thief back to the yamen.
Jin Se was stolen 100 taels, and he had to find a way to help her get it back.
The thief only glanced at Zhou Zimu's expression and didn't dare to look at him anymore. This guy isn't easy to mess with! It's really unlucky today, I knew that I wouldn't have acted on my own.
When the boss knew that he had sneaked out to do private work, and he was caught, maybe he would be kicked out of the thief group.
The gate of the prefect's yamen soon appeared in front of his eyes, like a man-eating beast with its mouth open.
"I don't want to go in!" With a scream, the door of the yamen slowly closed.
