Chapter 1184

"These hateful thieves -"

Xu Pei's relatives were sent back to the residence by the soldiers sent by Qin Gong. As soon as they entered the gate, they saw the cold and empty courtyard.

Because they want to run for their lives, they can only try to pick expensive small pieces. The large pieces are left in the old house to be guarded by domestic servants, and they can move again when they have a chance.

I didn't want to escape and failed. When I came home, I found that the house was patronized by thieves, and many domestic servants were injured.

Several concubines were about to cry and found that the large pieces they had not taken away in time had been emptied by the thieves.

The shelf of Duobao Pavilion loved by a concubine room also disappeared, and all the things on it disappeared.

Asked the servants who stayed at the old house. The servants said that they had just left before long, and a group of masked bandits broke in and looted.

Fortunately, these bandits had no vision. They only robbed gold and silver, more valuable objects, such as antique books.

Compared with the latter, those stolen gold, silver and worldly objects can only be regarded as the tip of the iceberg.

Mrs. Xu Pei's face was angry. At the same time, she was glad that the bandits who took advantage of the fire had shallow eyelids and didn't know good goods.

"It's been a frightening day. Let's all go back to their courtyards and have a rest. The next thing will be discussed tomorrow."

Mrs. Xu Pei casually dismissed the crying concubine room, impatient and somewhat happy.

These concubines are empty, beautiful but without details. The private Treasury is full of gold and silver, cloth, clothing and rouge powder. At the same time, it is also the hardest hit area frequented by bandits. They lose the most, but it's no use crying in front of her. She won't be kind to subsidize it.

Xu Yanxiao looked at the good play coldly, and there was no waves on her face.

When the eldest lady spoke and let people go, she followed the other women's family members to salute, step down and go back to her yard.

"Go check the private library and see what's missing -"

Xu Yanxiao casually found an excuse to support the first-class servant girl she served.

She wants to be alone.

The servant girl muttered, "the bandits are so greedy. How can they leave us anything? It's also a white check. They must have been robbed."

His feet seemed to plunge into the ground and refused to move at all.

Xu Yanxiao held back his anger.

"Let you go, you go, find any excuse."

The servant girl never took Xu Yanxiao's words to heart because she was the first lady. She would complain if she asked her to do something.

The servant girl shrunk her neck, looking very timid. As soon as she turned around, she showed a contemptuous expression, and the tip of her nose hummed slightly.

"It's just an orphan girl without a father or a mother. She doesn't have the money for a servant girl. What's the private library?"

The servant girl muttered and complained, so she had to get the lock and open the private library.

Although Mrs. Xu Pei never cared about Xu Yanxiao, she also prepared many good things for Xu Yanxiao in order not to be criticized by the outside world.

However, although things are good, they are not commonly used and marked valuables. They are large and impractical. They can only be put in the private warehouse for ash.

Most of the few items that can be exchanged for silver have also been secretly changed by servants.

Xu Yanxiao's life in Xu's house is very unhappy.

"Eh?"

The servant girl looked at the things in the private library and said in surprise.

All the people's private storehouses were looted by the robbers, but Xu Yanxiao's private storehouse was neat, and the dust on the ground didn't even have a footprint.

Knowing this, Xu Yanxiao thought, "maybe the courtyard is too humble, and the bandits have no time to search. Go and get the Buddhist scriptures and prepare the pen and ink, and I'll recite scriptures and copy books for my mother. Don't spread the private library, so as not to cause unnecessary discussion."

The whole family was robbed, but I was safe here, which inevitably caused red eyes.

Clinker, the servant girl turned her head and passed this matter and Xu Yanxiao's words to the eldest lady.

The eldest lady sneered and said contemptuously, "raise an unfamiliar white eyed wolf."

There's nothing to hide about this. Will they be greedy for her money?

The next day, Xu's house welcomed special visitors.

Qin Gong has a tender face, but no one dares to treat him as a child with his tall body and armor. "When the eldest lady and Mr. Xin Zhaogong have been separated from each other for a long time, you might as well write a letter to report peace, so that Mr. Xin Zhaogong won't worry about the safety of his family in the front line."

The eldest lady looked gloomy and put a knife in Qin Gong's eyes.

In her opinion, this is not writing a letter to reassure Xu Pei. It is clear that it is threatening him with his family members and ordering him to obey.

She won't be fooled.

The eldest lady said bitterly and bluntly, "it's really the eldest husband's act that the Lanting Duke, who had never thought of the beautiful moon, used such means?"

Intimidate others with relatives, she is still a man

Bah, is she still a hero?

Qin Gong said with a smile, "Madam really misunderstood my Lord. There is no malice in this move."

No malice?

Ghosts don't believe it!

The eldest lady refused to write a letter. Who knows what tricks the enemy will play with this letter?

Qin Gong didn't force her to refuse.

He didn't show it on his face, but he secretly felt that he was far less farsighted than the eldest lady.

The eldest lady in Qin Gong's mouth is not Mrs. Xu Pei, but Xu Yanxiao's biological mother and Xu Fei's wife.

If she meets this scene, she will write a letter to her family, explain the situation at home in detail in the letter, and appease her husband who is fighting outside.

With a letter from home, it proves that the family is safe and sound.

If the husband is at the end of his rope, he will worry about his family more or less, so he won't go all out.

If there is no letter from home, maybe the husband is angry, desperate to fight the enemy to the end, and finally lost his life.

Qin Gong is too lazy to mention each other, so as not to be a donkey's liver and lung.

He turned the topic to Xu Yanxiao, pretending not to know, "I heard that the old lord ordered the daughter of Duke Wen to live in his house now?"

The eldest lady nodded.

Qin Gong said, "yesterday, I heard from my soldiers that it was a gang of bandits with a size of 1000 people who robbed and committed crimes everywhere while our army entered Zhejiang county. Even Duke Xinzhao was poisoned. Today, I specially sent some chewing. Please don't dislike it."

The eldest lady suddenly heard that it was fishy, and the bottom of her heart was not the taste.

Qin Gong first mentioned Xu Yanxiao, and then said that he was worried that his family didn't have enough to chew. What does that mean?

Although the family is patronized by bandits, it's not too poor. Qin Gong is worried that she will starve an orphan daughter?

The eldest lady was unhappy and even colder on her face.

Qin Gong didn't seem to see it and asked to see Xu Yanxiao.

The eldest lady was even more angry.

Is this to see if she abused an orphan?

Because the defense between men and women is not serious, Qin Gong is an old minister of Xu Fei, and Xu Yanxiao is still young. He cares about the orphan daughter of the old lord, and others will not gossip. Seeing Qin Gong, Xu Yanxiao blushed, "Why are you here?"

"The last general will set out for the southern expedition in a few days. While the momentum is still high, he will win the residual boundary of Zhejiang county in one fell swoop." Qin Gongduan was sitting and said, "this is a small half month. At the end of the month, he will be afraid of Mrs. Xu's worry, so he came to report."

"Who's worried?" Xu Yanxiao added shame to his face, realized that he had said something important, and said with a red earlobe, "remember to come back."

Qin Gong nods. After a while, he gets up and leaves.
