Chapter 68 New Neighbors

Inside the Yufang Pavilion.

The shopkeeper can only look at the few unwilling ones with regret, but they have missed the opportunity to make a fortune.

"Madam, please wait a moment."

Soon a new group of people arrived, and Zhao Mingruo explained his purpose of buying servants again.

This time, the person she selected didn't say no more. Zhao Mingruo picked ten maids and fifteen servants to negotiate the price with the shopkeeper, but found out that inhuman torture was going on in the next room.

A boy who was just sixteen or seventeen years old was cornered by a wall. There were countless scars on his body, scabs of blood, stained so badly that his tattered clothes were black, and his face was also covered in blood. Eyes are clear.

The guards with long whips still cursed, most of them had already entered their Yufang Pavilion, and even if they didn't want to be servants, they had to resign themselves to their fate and wait to be sold.

The people who appear in the market are basically the same as the goods. It is a good fortune to be sold to decent people as servants. There are many good-looking boys and girls who are sold to shady boats for human body There is also fun.

It was indeed pitiful, but Zhao Mingruo could only take care of himself, he couldn't save others, and he didn't want to cause trouble for himself, so she just took a look and then withdrew her gaze and left.

Unexpectedly, the man in the room rushed out to Zhao Mingruo's side like a madman.

"help me."

Zhao Mingruo frowned slightly.

Are you still so stubborn to ask for help?
Seeing that Zhao Mingruo remained unmoved, the guarding man in the room had already run towards him with a whip, the man said again, "I know martial arts, you save me, I will protect you for five years."

This reason did not impress Zhao Mingruo.

"You know martial arts and you were arrested? You can't get away and need help from others? It's useless for me to come if you don't have good martial arts."

Zhao Mingruo is very confident, the confidence given by Yuan Wei, this little girl looks young and weak, but her martial arts are not low, she can go in and out of a well-guarded family like the Duke of Yan's mansion without being noticed, naturally she has her ability .

"Accidentally poisoned."

The young man lowered his head, remorseful and resentful, "It was my carelessness, and I will never easily believe that others have been tricked and poisoned in the future."

"Then why do you trust me?"

"I'm not a good person either." Zhao Mingruo's rhetorical question directly stopped the young man.

He didn't expect a woman who looked charming and bright to be so straightforward.

The caretaker came over and gave Zhao Mingruo an apologetic smile, "Madam, I'm sorry for disturbing you, the villain will take him back."

"You brat who deserves to be beaten, I beat you lightly. You just ignored our words, didn't you? I'm going to beat you to death today."

Facing the thug's whip, the young man didn't show any cowardice or fear, but his eyes were firm and determined, and he was ready to fight.

Zhao Mingruo frowned and thought for a while, then whispered beside the young man, "If you rely on yourself to ask these people, follow me to the shopkeeper in the front hall, and I will help you."

After she finished speaking, she really walked towards the front hall without saying a word of nonsense.

Seeing this, the young man was in a hurry. He braced his weak body to face the group of thugs who abused him, and shot suddenly.

There were endless screams in the backyard.

"Boss, I've finished the selection." Zhao Mingruo took out the cards on the servants who were selected.

Seeing that she has a lot of money in her hand.

The shopkeeper smiled brightly, "Madam, you are really generous. Don't worry, even if you don't take the initiative to say it, the villain will definitely give you a fair price."

The abacus was crackling, and soon the boss said, "These are dead contracts, the price is higher, you can just give 2000 taels."

Zhao Mingruo raised his brows, "Say it again, how much, you don't have to be fooled."

"I often buy for our master."

The shopkeeper was a little bit embarrassed. Originally, she was dressed like a lady from a wealthy family, and she was so young. She must have been ignorant and took advantage of it. But I didn't expect to know so much.

I can't fool around anymore.

But the shopkeeper quickly adjusted. After working for so long, he knew that long-term is the reason, "Madam, the villain sees that Madam is destined, as long as Madam can come more in the future, this time I will give Madam 1000 taels of silver. What do you think?" how?"

"can."

Zhao Mingruo readily agreed and gave the money to the shopkeeper. She felt a little sorry. It seemed that the young man was just talking nonsense and didn't have the strength of high-strength martial arts.

She was about to take someone away.

But he happened to see two more bloodstains on the young man's face, but they did appear in front of him. Zhao Mingruo couldn't help but raise his lips slightly, and when he looked at the young man's eyes, he also had a bit of appreciation.

The shopkeeper's expression changed, he gritted his teeth and ordered to his subordinates, "Are they all dead people? I can't even look down on anyone. Am I raising waste by paying you?"

Immediately, people surrounded him.

"and many more."

Zhao Mingruo interrupted the shopkeeper in time, "I want to buy as much as he has."

-

Yan State Duke's Mansion.

The servants filed out, carrying backpacks and luggage in their hands.

Yan Huai'an's thin body seemed to be much thinner, his face was pale, without any blood, and he coughed several times even while waiting for the carriages and horses.

Several blood-stained handkerchiefs were changed.

Duke Yan was furious, "Go, you go now, don't come back later."

"You treat me as your only son, can't I leave you?"

Yan Huai'an's voice was hoarse, "Yes, father still has Huaiyang, Huaiyu and sister Yi by his side. They are in good health and can share father's worries, unlike my son who is so disappointing."

Another burst of coughing.

The handkerchief on his hand was not covered for a while, and the blood just oozes out along the slender fingers with clear bones, and the weak wind supports the willow, as if it will disappear at any time, which is pitiful.

Duke Yan's heart tightened, and he couldn't hide his distress on his face, but his anger was also there.

He just didn't understand why his son was against him everywhere, and he didn't even have a good face in the past.

"Okay, you go. If you have this ability, you will never come back." Yan Guogong was very angry.

"My lord, don't be angry." Mrs. Zhang immediately comforted her, "An'er is not feeling well, so it's fine if he wants to go out to relax. Both are in Lin'an City. If you're worried about seeing him, don't delay too much. of the hour."

"An'er, you live outside alone, don't neglect your daily necessities, and prepare commonly used medicinal materials. If you need anything, just come back to the Duke's mansion and tell me, and mother will send someone to deliver it to you."

Mrs. Zhang looked at Yan Huai'an lovingly, "Come back as soon as you feel better. Don't worry your father, do you hear me?"

Yan Huai'an nodded, "It's... mother."

Aye led the carriage over, Yan Huaian got into the carriage, and went to Yulin Lane without looking back.
