You scoundrel, you actually flirted with my sister in the street, come with me to see the official," the big man next to the woman shouted as he tried to drag him to the government office.

It was late spring, and the night wind blew. It was a gentle warm breeze, but it still made Li Yu shiver. If this matter were to be reported to the government office, it would be embarrassing for him alone. His father valued the reputation of the Duke's Mansion more than his life. If his father knew about this, he would definitely break his legs.

Moreover, it was not easy for him to get this official position. If the Censorate reports him, he would be in big trouble.

"I hope this good man will show mercy. As long as you don't go to the government office, you can make any demands. I will never refuse."

Li Yu spoke hurriedly without caring about his injuries.

But seeing that the big man hesitated, Li Yu was afraid that he would not agree, so he hurriedly said: "After all, your sister is still an unmarried girl. If this matter is reported to the government, it will also damage your sister's reputation. It is better for us to solve it privately."

The woman who was molested seemed to be concerned about what Li Yu said, after all, it was a matter of the woman's reputation.

"Brother!"

The woman shouted, and the meaning was self-evident.

Three thousand taels!"

The big man said, "If you give it to me, this matter will be settled naturally."

"Three thousand taels!"

Li Yu screamed in pain.

"Why, if you don't give it to us, then we will go to the government office and let the judge decide for us!"

The big man refused to give in.

Li Yu calmed down and thought that this matter must not be made into a big deal, it would be better to lose money to avoid disaster.

"Then you have to let me go back home to get it!"

He had just given Wang Shuyi a sum of money, and he still didn't have much money left. Now he had to take out another three thousand taels. He would have to tighten his belt in the days to come, and he couldn't be as carefree as he is now. What was going on?

Li Yu wanted to go back to the mansion alone to get the silver, but the big man did not allow him to do so, so he had to take others with him.

Li Yu didn't even have time to say goodbye to his companions and went straight back home.

After returning to the mansion, the butler Li Yu was shocked to see the bruised and swollen face. Li Yu had to say perfunctorily that he accidentally fell into the ditch.

The housekeeper was puzzled and couldn't understand why the second master would go to such a dangerous place for no reason, so he went to find a doctor.

Li Yu certainly couldn't say that he was horny and molested another girl.

He had no choice but to go and get the silver, feeling annoyed and distressed. After taking away three thousand taels, he only had one hundred taels left in his hand.

He took the silver and gave it directly to the big man.

Looking at the big man's back as he left, he couldn't help but spit, "I'm so unlucky, what kind of thing is this?"

"Pah, what a damn bad luck!"

The big man left the Duke's Mansion and turned around to a dark alley, where someone was waiting for him. It was the person he called sister.

"Got it"

The woman no longer looked as weak as a willow in the wind, but now she looked very heroic and her voice was crisp.

The big man took out the banknote from his pocket and tapped it twice. "Not a penny less, all here."

There was a carriage parked not far away, and a veiled woman got out of the carriage, with only a pair of sparkling eyes exposed.

"Miss, it's all done. Here's three thousand taels." The big man was very respectful. Perhaps because the eyes were too alluring, he didn't dare to look directly at the woman in front of him.

"You're doing great!"

The woman's voice was like the willows in the south of the Yangtze River.

Song Qingcheng took the banknote. Her cousin Wang Shuyi did not have a good life in her previous life. This Li Yu would be a man who favored his concubine over his wife in the future. In her previous life, she herself was involved in a lawsuit and had no time to take care of Wang Shuyi. In her new life, she had to watch Wang Shuyi live a miserable life.

Holding the banknote in his hand, he said, "This thousand taels is for you. Give it to the brothers in Black Wind Village."

"Girl, how can this be possible? You have helped Black Wind Village a lot. We cannot take your money anymore."

The big man felt a little embarrassed. He had a ferocious face, but at this moment he was as embarrassed as a child.

The pretty woman beside him also waved her hands repeatedly.

The man and woman were none other than Zhang Lin, the boss of Longmen Escort Agency, and Qiao Xiangyu, the second in command.

When Song Qingcheng was fifteen years old, he returned home from the military camp one day and happened to meet two people who were being hunted. Song Qingcheng rescued them out of kindness. Afterwards, he learned that they were the leaders of the Black Wind Village. The Black Wind Village has always been practicing robbing the rich to help the poor. However, one day, there were disagreements in the sect. Wang Shi, the third in command of the Black Wind Village, ignored the rules of the village and went down the mountain to burn, kill and loot. The imperial court would not allow anyone to make trouble under its noses, so it ordered people to suppress the bandits. The third in command was a two-faced person. He even slandered that those dirty things were done by the first in command Zhang Lin and the second in command Qiao Xiangyu. Because of his meritorious service in reporting and Guan Hui's flattery, he was selected into the Jinyiwei as an exception.

Poor boss Zhang Lin and second in command Qiao Xiangyu were chased and had nowhere to go, almost losing their lives, and unfortunately met Song Qingcheng.

At that time, Song Qingcheng naturally did not believe their one-sided words, and she asked her father to check it out, and only then did she believe that these two people were indeed not bad people.

People in the underworld value loyalty the most, so Zhang Lin and Qiao Xiangyu both respect Song Qingcheng as their savior.

Song Qingcheng naturally didn't want them to go back to being bandits. Although they did all kinds of good things to help others, they were after all under the emperor's feet, so they couldn't do such things again. So Song Qingcheng gave them some money and let them buy land and build houses in Tongzhou. They usually escorted the convoys. Now the Black Wind Village has been transformed into the Longmen Escort Agency.

In her previous life, Song Qingcheng was content to stay in the back house and seldom looked for the two of them, but now they could help her a lot.

Song Qingcheng insisted on giving it to Zhang Lin, and he wanted to refuse, but Qiao Xiangyu said, "Since you've given it to me, just take it. It's a good opportunity to take in more orphans."

"That's what I meant."

"It's getting late, you should go back soon."

"Girl be careful"

Zhang Lin clasped his fists.

Song Qingcheng put the remaining silver in her arms, thinking of finding time to give it to Wang Shuyi.

The moon was at its zenith when Pei Huaizhi finished processing the last stack of documents in the government office before returning home. It was already late and there was no one on the street.

Turning the corner, he saw a familiar figure. Although she was wearing a hood and her face could not be seen clearly, he knew at a glance that the woman was Song Qingcheng.

Shuqi was standing on one side and naturally recognized Song Qingcheng.

He wondered what the Third Madam wanted to do, but since his master hadn't spoken, he naturally didn't dare to say a word, because he could already feel the chill emanating from his master.

Pei Huaizhi looked at the three people and the money transactions in the distance, his cold eyes were like a deep pool, but in a moment he concealed all the expressions in his eyes.

"Go check it out!"

"Yes, master"

Books and chess should be.

At the same time, after dealing with Li Yu's problem, she prepared to return to the carriage. Just as she was about to lean in, she suddenly felt a cold gaze on her, which made her feel a chill in her heart.
