Just then Aunt Chen came out and said: "This old man, our master has always been honest and fair as an official and never bullied the people.

You are the village chief and chief of the village. Our master has always respected you who work for the people. How could we take your things for nothing and not give you money? "

After saying that, he asked the maid next to him to take out the money bag, took out two ingots of silver, about 20 taels, and handed them to Li Kaishan.

If people who don't know see her upright and awe-inspiring look, it will really make people feel good.

Li Kaishan's hand shook as he wondered if he should accept some money. Yan Qingqing said at the right time: "This lady is really righteous. At first glance, she looks like everyone's wife. I wonder which lady in the house she is? How do you call her?"

Yan Qingqing knew this and asked, and Aunt Chen looked a little proud when she heard this, because as long as she went out with the eldest lady, no one would treat her as a concubine.

Of course Aunt Chen doesn't think she is a concubine. Who allowed her to have three sons by her side?

The maid next to Aunt Chen was about to introduce her master. Mrs. Shen replied with a dark face: "They say country people have bad taste, and it seems that's true.

What kind of wife is she? She's just a concubine who doesn't deserve much attention. "

Aunt Chen clenched her fists tightly when she heard this, her nails almost dug into her flesh, and she bit her lips tightly. But she couldn't argue with Mrs. Shen on this occasion.

Upon hearing this, Yan Qingqing glanced between the two of them and then smiled and said: "Oh, it turns out it's the second lady of the house. It's really disrespectful."

Several other ladies around covered their mouths and snickered. They thought Yan Qingqing was very interesting. Madam is madam, concubine is concubine. She is sincerely trying to cause trouble for others.

Sure enough, Mrs. Shen and Aunt Chen both looked a little ugly after hearing this. But it’s hard to say anything else.

Yan Qingqing saw that these noble ladies did not make another attack. He quietly waved his hand and asked someone to "carry" Li Kaishan out.

Before Li Kaishan left, he glanced at Yan Qingqing worriedly, and Yan Qingqing gave him a reassuring look.

No matter what, this was Canghe Village's territory, Yan Qingqing couldn't let herself suffer.

Mrs. Liu watched with cold eyes, watching Li Kaishan go from being made things difficult to now getting 20 taels of silver and exiting safely.

Mrs. Shen and her aunt in the house, who had the same hatred at the beginning and now are at odds with each other, couldn't help but admire Yan Qingqing from the bottom of their hearts, and at the same time developed a lot of good feelings.

Originally, Mrs. Liu was the wife of the magistrate, so she should be above Mrs. Shen in terms of status and rights.

However, Shen Tongzhi took advantage of the fact that he was the eldest prince and did not take Magistrate Liu seriously at all. The Liu family did not have a strong backer in the capital, so when they were in the capital, Mrs. Liu, a fourth-grade scholar, was defeated by Mrs. Shen, a fifth-grade magistrate. People are overwhelmed everywhere.

This time, she wouldn't have come out with Mrs. Shen and the others if it were not to prevent Tong Shen from making things difficult for her master.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Liu looked at Yan Qingqing and smiled and said: "I just heard that this garden belongs to this lady. We are new here and are not familiar with the place. I wonder if you can show us around."

Yan Qingqing was a little surprised when she heard her being so polite, but she replied without a smile on her face: "Of course it's no problem. Ladies, please invite me."

Yan Qingqing began to take them on a tour of the garden. Except for a few sarcastic remarks from Mrs. Shen and the Chen sisters from time to time, nothing else happened.

Yan Qingqing was very imaginative. The first level of officialdom was overwhelming, and besides, he had a high-level official title, many levels higher than his own, and even being ridiculed would be a piece of meat.

Mrs. Shen and the others felt like fists hitting cotton.

Yan Qingqing originally thought that no matter how hard it was, it would be just one day, but who knew that these people were still staying in the inn in their village.

He said that he didn’t have enough fun in one day and would have to continue traveling again tomorrow.

What can Yan Qingqing do? Naturally, he will arrange for them to stay, but the room fee must not be less.

Probably the people in the inn have also heard about the tempers of these ladies, and everyone is trembling with fear.

Yan Qingqing comforted them that they didn't need to be so afraid. Although they were ordinary people, they were good people who abided by the law. Even though they were wives of officials, they couldn't do anything to them for no reason.

With Yan Qingqing's words, everyone working in the inn felt confident. Yan Qingqing is their major shareholder, so what do they have to worry about even if she says it?

After Yan Qingqing returned home from playing with this group of people for a day, she asked Ruyi to take off her headdress and change into light clothes.

Ruyi looked at Yan Qingqing's eagerness to change clothes and said distressedly: "Are you exhausted today, madam?"

Yan Qingqing smiled and said: "I'm tired, but not tired. We are farmers and are used to hard work.

It's just that this outfit is too hot on my body, and it's quite heavy with these things on my head. If these people are so arrogant, I shouldn't be so arrogant. It's really embarrassing for them. "

But Yan Qingqing then sighed with emotion: "Have these women been waiting in Fucheng for too long to be able to go shopping like this? I have visited a garden over and over again, and there are still a few who want to get out of my garden for nothing. Pick flowers.”

After hearing Yan Qingqing's complaints, Ruyi smiled and said, "Why don't you give me money in the end? Madam, you never engage in loss-making business."

Yan Qingqing gave her an appreciative look after hearing Ruyi's words.

While the master and servant were talking, Ada walked in and reported, "Madam, Mu Xi is here."

After hearing this, Yan Qingqing quickly said: "Let him come in."

Soon a handsome and tall boy walked in.

Yan Qingqing's eyes were dazed for a while. Was this still the Mu Xi in her memory? Not only had she grown taller, but her whole spirit was different.

After seeing Yan Qingqing, Mu Xi hurriedly knelt down and said, "Mu Xi has seen the master and wishes him well."

Yan Qingqing looked at him and smiled and said: "Get up quickly, you have worked hard during this period."

Mu Xi stood up and said, "It's not hard, we all cherish this opportunity given by the master."

Yan Qingqing nodded when he heard this and then asked: "Is there anything strange about them?"

Mu Xi replied: "Nothing has been discovered so far, but the servants of the Shen family are trying to get close to the villagers and inquire about their master.

I think they are looking for a breakthrough. Therefore, the master and all the young masters in the family must be extra careful. "

Yan Qingqing's face turned gloomy when he heard this. It seemed that these people really had a purpose and were still lingering.

However, Yan Qingqing doesn't know their plan now and can only take precautions just in case.

So he thought about it and said to Mu Xi: "Send two people to Xifeng Academy to protect the fourth young master, and send another person to keep an eye on them. If anything happens, tell me immediately."

After hearing this, Mu Xi quickly agreed.

Yan Qingqing then ordered Ada: "Tell the embroidery shop and the workshop to be very careful these two days, and no strangers are allowed to enter. In addition, people must be on duty at night."

After hearing this, Ada also accepted the order and left. It was not that Yan Qingqing was too cautious, but that a villain like this with no bottom line could do anything.
