"Hand over all the valuables you have and get out!"
They brought an old woman back and had no use for it. Instead, they had to feed her with food. She was already so unlucky today and they didn't want to kill anyone anymore.
But the prerequisite is that the old woman must hand over her belongings.
They have robbed a lot of people over the years. Looking at the clothes of the young lady and the maid, you can tell that they are not from a poor family, and they must have gone to live with their relatives. Even the servants must have something.
.
Naturally, the old woman didn't want most of her life savings to be taken away like this. Without money, she could just leave. How would she live in the future?
"Sir, I really have no money, so I asked someone to take it all back, but who knew those people were just white-eyed wolves..."
The old woman said with tears and snot mixed with the rain. It was really disgusting to death.
Shen Minqing didn't know anything about what happened above.
Her leap was made with the determination to die.
Everything during this period was beyond her endurance. The day her parents left, she was already ready to follow them. If her father hadn't held her hand tightly and forced her to promise to live well,
Otherwise, I will die in peace.
Now, she probably doesn't break her promise.
"Father~mother~ my daughter is unfilial! She failed to keep her promise..."
The sound of wind in her ears gradually blurred her consciousness.
“Believe what you say!”
Suddenly, a pair of strong arms were tightly wrapped around his waist, and a whisper came from his ears.
Shen Minqing's consciousness gradually returned. Looking at the man holding his waist, she panicked and started to push him, completely forgetting what her current situation was.
"You, what are you doing? Let me go quickly."
Cang Muchen didn't pay attention to such a cliff at all. He could have taken her up the first moment he caught her, but he didn't. Instead, he continued to let the two of them fall down, just to have a look.
her reaction.
Under normal circumstances, people who jump off a cliff will regret it on the way, but at this time it is basically hopeless, so if someone rescues them on the way, they will definitely feel lucky to survive the disaster.
But now...
That doesn’t seem to be the case!
This girl has no intention of going back on her word at all, she really wants to die.
"I will help you kill the bandits. Do you choose to continue to die or live?"
The sound of wind filled her ears and nose, making her feel uncomfortable. Shen Minqing unconsciously buried her head on his chest to block the wind that made her uncomfortable.
The man's words reminded her of what her father said when he held her hand before he died.
"Qingqing, you have to live well, otherwise your parents will never die in peace!"
Shen Minqing grabbed Cang Muchen's collar with both hands and looked up at him with difficulty, "I can't die!"
Cang Muchen understood, and with a boost of energy, the two of them stopped falling. However, the feeling of breaking wind made her even more uncomfortable, as if the speed of going up was faster than the speed of falling.
Shen Minqing felt that she was not an ignorant girl, but she still knew that this was impossible, so she just thought that she had an illusion.
After going up, Cang Muchen didn't let her go, and still held her tightly, but this Miss Shen family was really very sensible. She had just saved her life, and now she started again as soon as she stood still.
Pushed Cang Muchen aside.
Cang Muchen didn't force it, but said lightly when she pushed him away, "Lower your head."
Shen Minqing lowered his head subconsciously, his face immediately turned red, and he quickly moved a few steps to hide behind Cang Muchen.
Because of the rain, the clothes on her body were completely stuck to her body. Although it was opaque, her exquisite curves were fully exposed.
Cang Muchen is tall, so blocking her is a piece of cake.
At this moment, Qingfeng also came over with Shen Minqing's little maid, "Sir, those bandits have been captured, what do you want to do with them?"
After all, these people didn't cause anyone's life here, so they didn't kill them on the spot. They were all tied up now and waiting for their master's disposal.
Cang Muchen casually glanced at the bandits over there, "Throw them into the county government office and see what kind of face the county magistrate has!"
Bandits are so rampant in his own jurisdiction, what on earth is this parent official doing!!
Qingfeng agreed and mentioned another thing.
He turned to Shen Mintao behind Cang Muchen and clasped his fists, "Miss, the old woman and the coachman around you have all rebelled."
It was a simple statement, just telling her a fact without saying a word more, but Shen Mintao had already thought about it a lot.
Of course, it was not because of their rebellion that they were sad.
After coming up from below, she had actually seen through a lot more.
Isn't this what people are going through this time? They can only live for the people they care about, or the people who care about them. As for the rest... it doesn't matter.
Therefore, the betrayal of the coachman and the old woman could not cause any harm to her.
The first thing she cared about was her maid, "What happened to my maid?"
Although she was hiding behind Cang Muchen, she saw that this man had brought her maid here, and she was worried that something had happened to Danyu.
Hearing her question, Qingfeng lowered his head and glanced at the maid, "It's just that she was crying too sadly. Don't worry, Miss."
Shen Minqing:......
Listening to these conversations between her and Qingfeng, Cang Muchen had some thoughts in his heart, but he didn't show it. He just took two steps back calmly, allowing Shen Minqing to be completely blocked by him, even if he tried again.
If he took a step back, Shen Minqing should be directly pressed against his back.
He wanted to do this, but he also knew that the people behind him would be embarrassed.
He seems to be indifferent to the world, but he is very thin-skinned.
"First find an inn, and then prepare a new carriage."
Cang Muchen didn't want to listen to them anymore. Standing in the rain talking like this made them look particularly shameful.
"The old woman next to you should have been dismissed a long time ago. The way she looked at your things earlier must be a habitual offender. She is very skilled. I will ask my subordinates to help you find someone with clean hands and feet who can serve others."
Shen Minqing didn't dare to accept his help anymore, so she quickly refused, "I don't dare bother you anymore. I will go back and handle these matters myself. Today's life-saving grace will be unforgettable."
These words clearly set a clear boundary, but Cang Muchen has been instilled by his mother and concubine since he was a child with the idea of losing money in business. Now that he has taken action, he will not let himself get any reward.
Listening to Shen Minqing's words, he turned his head slightly and looked at her, half-smiling, "Young lady will not forget, but she has no intention of repaying the favor."
