410 Madam Qiu’s Gift of Thanks (1)
“How dare you hit me? Do you know that I…”
“You’re all… dead meat…”
It would have been better if he hadn’t reminded her. With this reminder, the alley, which had only him crying out in pain, immediately became lively.
“Ah!”
“Don’t hit my face!”
“I won’t do it again!”
Shen Yijia played with them for a while and looked at the six people lying on the ground with swollen faces.
One of them wasn’t her victim.
She clapped her hands in satisfaction and squatted down in front of them. She reached out. “Where’s the money?”
The five of them looked at each other and looked at Shen Yijia in horror. They trembled and took out their money bags and placed them in her hand.
Shen Yijia shook the five money bags in her hand. It was not a small amount!
She poured out all the money and placed it in her pouch. It added up to about a hundred taels of silver.
Shen Yijia could not help but sigh at how rich the people in the capital were. Everyone had all their assets. She liked it!
She threw the money bag back to them and thought for a moment. “If you still want to play next time, come here and wait for me. But remember to bring more silver.”
The five students’ heads buzzed.
Why did this scene look so familiar?
They had always treated others like this. The money was just an excuse for them. They mainly enjoyed bullying others.
Shen Yijia did not know what they were thinking. She was about to get up and leave.
A dirty hand was stretched out in front of her. In that hand was a battered but clean purse.
Shen Yijia was stunned. She looked in the direction of the owner of the hand. It was a young man with a broken mouth and a dirty face. He looked about the same age as Lin Shao.
There was a stubborn look in the young man’s eyes.
Shen Yijia wanted to say that she didn’t want it, but when she saw the indignant gazes of the others, she reached out and took the money bag.
She stood up and walked around them. After taking a few steps, she stopped and turned around to smile at them. “I’ll wait for you here next time.”
Just now, she had asked them to wait for her here, but now, she said she would wait here for them.
Did this mean that this demoness would come here often in the future?
The few of them originally wanted to wait for her to leave before venting their anger on the person they had bullied.
Hearing this, their pupils constricted. They endured the pain in their bodies and ran away.
Soon, only one of the six people was left lying there.
Shen Yijia clicked her tongue. It seemed that this way of earning money would not work.
She glanced at the remaining student and took out the old money bag. There were only a dozen copper coins inside.
He was even poorer than her.
Shen Yijia was speechless. Brother Hao at least had a tael of silver that she had given him.
She took out a piece of silver worth about two taels from her pouch and stuffed it into the money bag. She casually threw the money bag back and said indifferently, “Those people compensated you for your medical expenses.”
“I’m not being kind, understand?” she thought.
The young man looked in the direction Shen Yijia had left in a daze. He only retracted his gaze when she disappeared at the end of the alley.
With red eyes, he picked up his money bag and took out the piece of silver. He was about to throw it away when he thought of something and paused. He closed his eyes and put the silver back.
The current Shen Yijia did not know that the young man she had casually saved would play a role in her life in the future. If she knew, she would only sigh at how magical fate was.
Because of this delay, there were only a few carriages left at the entrance of the women’s school. Therefore, she immediately saw Sister Huan and Lin Miaomiao standing at the side.
The two of them also saw her. Their eyes lit up and they pounced on her. “Sister-in-law, we thought you had forgotten about our school hours.”
“How could that be?” Shen Yijia rubbed their heads and explained, “I was delayed by something.”
“There were too many carriages here just now. I asked Mo Yuan to park the carriage at the boys’ school. Let’s walk over.”
The two of them naturally had no objections.
At this moment, a carriage with bells on its body drove in their direction.
Shen Yijia frowned and protected the two little girls.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the women’s school. Mo Yu took out his foot pedal and placed it there.
“Young Master, we’re here.” She reminded the person in the carriage.
The curtain was lifted by a fair hand. Ji Yunxi, who was wearing a veil, got out of the carriage.
She frowned and looked back at Shen Yijia.
A few female servants welcomed her. “Miss Ji, you’re here. Our Madam is waiting for you inside.”
Ji Yunxi retracted her gaze and followed them into the academy.
