Fifty-two: The money is in hand, and the steward is suspicious

Previous Chapter

But the steward knew that he could not do this, because he knew that there was probably someone behind the beggar.

When this beggar saw himself coming, his first reaction was not to look at himself, but to keep looking around, his eyes were full of anxiety, and he was obviously looking at the people around him.

After seeing himself, he was desperate to look at the clothes by himself, and when he was obviously stunned, his face showed a relaxed expression, and then he kept looking around, as if he was looking for someone.

Through these performances, it is obvious that the steward can be sure that this beggar is clearly behind it.

And this man made him have a sense of fear.

And the manager can do the position of manager, obviously not mediocre or the like, let alone a short-sighted person, so after he saw the opportunity, his first reaction was to seize the opportunity, and he grasped it with certainty, rather than giving up the big watermelon behind for a small benefit.

Clearly, the steward realized something when he saw the clothes in the beggar's hand.

"Let's go in and talk." The steward handed the garment to the beggar, and his attitude became very gentle, no longer ignoring the previous ignorance.

The beggar looked at the steward with some hesitation, did not speak, and looked around involuntarily again, wanting to see if any hero was there, or if he expected this situation.

The beggar was a little unsure whether he wanted to go in or not.

The steward looked at the beggar's appearance, his eyes flashed, and he did not urge the beggar.

Because he wants to talk to the people behind this more.

The surrounding little guys and strong men were all stunned, obviously they didn't expect such a development, and they didn't know why this beggar just took out a piece of clothing, and his attitude towards things changed.

But they didn't dare to say anything, because they didn't deserve it.

The people around looked at this change and whispered, obviously not expecting such an ending.

The steward felt the commotion around him, but his expression remained unchanged, still patiently waiting for the beggar's answer.

He could even imagine what would be said on the street after that.

For example, what Pinxiang Pavilion invites beggars to come in and so on.

Or the beggar made a big fuss in the Pinxiang Pavilion, and finally succeeded in entering the Pinxiang Pavilion.

Even the family will definitely make a big fuss in this regard, after all, their Pinxiangge signboard has always been quality, and set the threshold of identity.

Aside from the good qualities of Pinxiangge itself, this is also the reason why Pinxiangge is popular among noblewomen, because it is a status symbol, a status, and a capital to show off.

And if it is later reported that Pinxiang Pavilion is a place where beggars can enter, it is conceivable that Pinxiang Pavilion will be hit in the future, especially from the opposite family.

Not to mention the noble ladies who pride themselves on their own innocence.

The steward's eyes were dark, but he didn't hesitate because of the whispers around him.

He has always believed that if you want to succeed, you need to take more risks, and these are obviously the obstacles in the way of his success.

The person in charge believes that if he has the clothes supplier behind the beggar, he will definitely be promoted to the next level.

So!

The steward's expression was heavy, and he must not let go of this opportunity.

Not only to seize this opportunity, but also to make yourself successful.

The steward's heart was ruthless, and he looked at the beggar.

"Let's go."

The beggar didn't get a hint from the hero, so he had to follow the steward in.

The lady in the Pinxiang Pavilion thought that the steward went out to deal with the beggars, but he did not expect that not only did he not drive the beggars away, but instead brought the beggars back to the Pinxiang Pavilion.

The ladies were shocked, even panicked, like frightened swans, looking at the ugly and dirty ducks that suddenly appeared.

The beggar, however, was not restrained, but walked in very boldly, swaying left and right, as if the gentry were patrolling his territory.

"What's going on?"

"Steward!"

"I'm going to give you shopkeeper a reaction!"

"Refund the money!"

……

The steward looked at the panicked ladies below, their handmaidens were constantly saying threatening words at their signals, and even noblewomen had gone out with the support of their handmaidens.

But there were still some people who were watching and didn't move.

The steward looked at the beggar next to her, glanced at the package in her hand, and then looked at the noble ladies around her, and the servants around were all flustered, constantly looking at the steward, obviously wanting to make up their minds.

The steward beckoned to a servant who was constantly looking at him.

"Steward, how is this to be?" The servant is a very clever looking woman, with two balls on her head, a very friendly smile on her face, usually very good at talking, and very popular with noble ladies.

And she is also the apprentice brought out by the steward, in such a situation, the steward found her, obviously trusting.

"Xiaohe, I've always been optimistic about you, you know what to do." The steward whispered to Xiaohe.

Xiaohe nodded to the steward, and went to the lady's area.

The steward took the beggar upstairs quickly, after all, he took a fancy to the clothes in the beggar's hand, and what he wanted to inquire about was the person behind the beggar, not the beggar himself, so naturally he would not let the beggar stay below for too long.

The longer you stay, the greater the loss.

And he brought the beggar in, just to make an appearance for the people behind the scenes, to show that he valued him, and for another reason, but also because he wanted the people behind the scenes to come out by himself after seeing his actions.

After all, he wanted to talk to the person behind the scenes.

However, it was clear that he was disappointed, and the man did not appear until the beggar entered the Pin Xiang Pavilion.

It seems to be very cautious.

"Tell me, how much does this dress cost?" The steward took the beggar to the room and asked his own questions directly.

The beggar looked at the furnishings in the room with glowing eyes, these things were really rich, he had never seen them before.

The beggar glanced at the steward, then at the package in his hand, but did not answer.

He knew that the person in charge was still patient with him.

"It's so fragrant, no wonder those girls want to come in." The beggar wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve and smiled covetedly.

The steward's expression faded a lot, and he said coldly, "Pay attention to your words." ”

The beggar didn't care about the gentleman's words, just looked at the teacup on the table, obviously wanting to take a sip.

The steward naturally noticed the beggar's expression, and a trace of impatience and disgust flashed in his eyes.

"Want to drink?"

The beggar looked at the teapot without turning his eyes and nodded straight.

"I can give you this tea, but you're going to tell me about the package." The steward looked at the beggar with a cold look.

The beggar's eyes lit up instantly, and he nodded. After making trouble outside for so long, he was already thirsty, not to mention that now he saw the tea he had never drunk before and smelled the tempting aroma of tea.

The steward took the teapot, poured it into the teacup, and handed it to the beggar.

The beggar picked it up and sniffed it, drank it all in one fell swoop, and after drinking, he wiped his chin and said, "This is the smell." ”

The steward looked at the beggar's rude movements, frowned, who knew that the beggar directly took the teapot on the table, opened the lid directly and poured tea into his mouth, drinking very embarrassed, and the tea was constantly going down.

"Huh." The beggar shook the teapot to make sure there wouldn't be a drop of tea, and then licked his mouth, "It's so cool." ”

"Let's talk about it now." The steward's cold reminder.

The beggar didn't do anything, and directly said what he knew.

"60 taels of silver? to really be able to speak. The steward looked at the note on the package and smiled meaninglessly.

The beggar was a little unsure of what this steward meant, so he could only watch from the sidelines.

Just when the beggar thought that the steward was going to refuse, the steward nodded.

"Yes, but aren't the people behind you going to come out to get the money?" The steward looked at the beggar, and the oppression in his eyes was very strong.

"Nope. Let me take it. The beggar shook his head.

The steward was a little disappointed, listened to the beggar's words, looked at the beggar with some suspicion, and obviously distrust in his eyesβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€” he didn't think that this beggar would really bring the money, more of a private take the money and run away.

The beggar saw the suspicion of the steward, and his heart was even more bitter to death, in his opinion, he was not a fat errand, but a terrible errand, and he was also the road that he had only taken today after eight lifetimes.

"My lord, you have to believe me, the person behind this is a hero, if I dare to take this money privately, I will die." The beggar looked at the steward with a bitter face.

The steward nodded, and gave the beggar the money very happily.

Although there was an element of exaggeration in the beggar's words, it can be seen from the beggar's words that he did not have the courage to do so.

The beggar looked at the silver in front of him, his eyes lit up, he held the teapot with one hand, and eagerly touched the silver with the other, but he was slapped before he could touch it, and when he looked up, he saw the smiling eyes of the steward.

The beggar had no choice but to retract his hand, wrap the silver in a cloth, and tie it firmly to his body, holding the teapot in his hand all the time, reluctant to put it down.

After sneaking a glance at the steward who didn't respond, he was about to turn around and leave.

"Wait! Your teapot. A little guy stopped the beggar.

"Ahh I forgot, this ...... This ......" The beggar looked at the little guy a little crampedly, kept snorting at the teapot, and then wiped it with his sleeve.

The little servant watched the beggar's movements and was about to take back the teapot, and the steward spoke, "Take it." "With disgust in his eyes, it's just a teapot.

When the beggar heard the steward's words, surprise flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly thanked him, bent down and went out.

"You, follow him to see." The steward beckoned to the man on the beam.

I want to see, who is behind this scene?

The steward smiled.
