After rebirth, the female supporting role only wanted to have a grand funeral

Chapter 71 The Salesian Bureau was robbed

Xue Shu and Qing Yu didn't return home until it was getting dark.

Today, the master and the servant have gained a lot. Xue Shu also accomplished a big thing. She was humming a little tune all the way home and was in a very good mood.

After getting off the carriage, I happened to meet Jing Xing who had also just gotten off the carriage.

Compared to Xue Shu, Jing Xing's mood was not so beautiful.

When he went home, he was first criticized by his biological father for disturbing their world, and then scolded by his biological mother, who reminded him not to forget the business of staying at the Xue family.

He was worried and didn't know what to do next, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Mr. Jing, what a coincidence." Xue Shu said hello and took Qingyu straight into Xue's house without any intention of stopping.

Seeing the little girl leaving heartlessly, Jing Xing looked up to the sky and sighed.

Xue Shu was in a hurry to go back and unpack things and didn't pay much attention to Jing Xing behind her.

When a noble lady of Xue Shu's status goes shopping, she can't just buy one or two pairs of clothes. Most of these wealthy ladies can't carry them on their shoulders or carry them with their hands, so merchants on Jinyu Street have launched delivery services.

.

Customers only need to order what they want in the store, and after paying the money, they can go to the next store empty-handed, and the store will pack what the customer wants and attach a small gift to it.

Guest's home.

It sounds simple, but in fact, this small delivery service contains a lot of thoughtfulness.

First of all, the packaging box cannot be careless. It must at least be a carved wooden box or even a brocade box. In short, it must make customers feel that this product is of high quality at the first glance.

As for the small gifts sent out, even more effort is required, they must be fresh and exquisite. Sometimes a unique small gift can bring hundreds or even thousands of taels of business to the store, so there is nothing to be careless about.

The competition among stores has become increasingly fierce, and no one wants to fall behind. Each store has come up with better products than the other, so customers have fallen in love with unboxing and never tire of it.

Back at Tangli Residence, the maids had neatly stacked the things sent by the shops on Jinyu Street and were waiting for their master to come back and unpack them.

Looking at the packaging box that almost blocked the entire corridor, Xue Shu and Qing Yu looked at each other, and both felt a sense of pride in their hearts.

Look! This is the country they have built!

It was getting late now, so the master and servant only unpacked a few boxes, and then the kitchen brought dinner over.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest thing.

"Girl, this box won't run away here. Let's unpack it after we finish eating!" Qingyu pulled Xue Shu, who was still obsessed with unpacking the box, to stand up. "Eat, eat, eat is the most important thing!"

Xue Shu had no choice but to look back at the pile of unopened boxes step by step, lingering and refusing to leave. Qingyu really put all her effort into sucking, and finally pressed Xue Shu in front of the dining table.

Alas, with such a troublesome master, there is really nothing we can do.

Xue Shu ate this meal so much that she didn't know how to taste it. She took a few mouthfuls and then sat back to unpack the box.

Qingyu shook her head helplessly and ordered: "Take away the food and tell the kitchen that the girls didn't eat well at night. Ask them to turn on the stove to warm the food and not to slack off.

Also, move everything back to the girl’s bedroom and be more agile!”

"Yes." The female envoys in the courtyard saluted and said yes, and went to do things according to Qingyu's instructions.

There was a heater in the room, the golden candlelight was beating, and accompanied by a few cheers from the girl, it was warm and peaceful.

Outside, the cold and damp air descended with the night, and even the ground became slippery.

——

"Stop pretending to me! Do you really think it's a big deal that you have become a noble? Bah! Let me tell you, either let us go in and live together, or you all get out of here and make room for us!" A tall, thin, well-dressed man

A ragged man was standing in front of the courtyard, cursing, and behind him were a group of beggars with dirty hair and a stench all over their bodies.

The yard in front of them seemed to have been renovated not long ago, and the dilapidated wooden doors had been replaced with brand new ones, which looked quite impressive.

"Stop dreaming! There are children in the yard. If you come in, they will be kicked out! We will not open the door. You leave quickly, otherwise I will report it to the police!" In the yard,

An old but powerful voice came.

Hearing this, the beggars outside the door burst into laughter. The tall and thin man leading the door said in a sinister voice: "Ouch, you scared me to death! Old man Wei, let's see what you can do. Why don't you report yourself to the official? Go ahead."

Ah! I'm watching you go! Open the door quickly! Aren't you going to report to the official!"

In the yard, Wei Nan's face was gloomy. He looked at the brand new wooden door in front of him, his eyes already filled with bloodshot eyes.

"Those little bastards inside are humans, but we are not humans anymore? Old man Wei, open the door quickly! Tell us to go in and warm ourselves up! Otherwise, we will freeze to death in front of your house and turn into popsicles.

When the officials ask, how will you explain?"

"That's right! Our lives are also our lives!"

The beggars outside were still shouting noisily.

"Grandpa Wei, you can't open the door!" The children, who had been hiding in their own rooms, ran out now. "They are not good people! If they come in, they will drive us away! We...

We'll freeze to death!"

The beggars don't know what it means to respect the old and cherish the young. As long as they are allowed in, the children will be the ones outside.

"Don't open the door!"

"Never open the door!"

So the children in the yard also started shouting at the top of their lungs, as if they could drive away the group of beggars outside the door as long as their voices were loud enough.

Wei Nan looked at the wooden door in front of him with worry.

They are old and weak in the courtyard, and there are young and middle-aged people outside. If the beggars break in, they will not be able to stop them at all.

Their place is remote and is a gathering place for beggars and gangsters. The officers and soldiers patrolling at night do not like to come here. Therefore, their only support is the courtyard wall and the newly replaced wooden door.

The entire Salesian Bureau was in chaos with shouting and crying. Even Wei Nan didn't know what to do.

Only one person remained calm and composed.

Zhu Yaoxing was still lying on the warm fire bed. He closed his eyes and counted the time silently in his heart.

As early as when the group of people first arrived, he had already called Chu Chu directly.

He told Chu Chu that the situation in the Salesian Bureau was urgent and asked Chu Chu to come over quickly to relieve the siege.

Calculating the time, it should be almost here.

The beggars outside were not very particular people, and they were not interested in scolding a group of children. Seeing that the wooden door did not open, the beggars immediately began to smash it.

Some beggars even climbed over the courtyard wall directly on a ladder.

There were many newly added things in the yard, but the beggars did not care about these for the time being. Their eyes lit up and they rushed into the warm bedrooms with cheers.

It wasn't until the beggars broke in, pulled Zhu Yaoxing up from the fire bed and threw him to the ground that Zhu Yaoxing suddenly opened his eyes.

Ignoring the severe pain in his body, he looked at the beggar who had occupied his position with a confused expression, and then looked back at the children crying in a ball in the yard. His heart seemed to have sunk to the bottom of a cold well.

Why……

He clearly told Chu Chu that a group of children were in danger...

Why doesn't she come?

still……

Delayed on the road?

Zhu Yaoxing smiled bitterly and closed his eyes.
