Chapter 103: Group Rising
"I asked the people in the mansion, and they said that the silver had already been given to the second young lady!"
After a square-faced, bearded man said this, everyone's eyes turned to Shen Qingyu.
Taking someone's money is like killing your parents.
These people looked at Shen Qingyu with hatred in their eyes.
It turned out that it was the second young lady of the Shen family who withheld their money. On weekdays, the second young lady seemed easy-going and approachable, and they were grateful in their hearts that she was a kind-hearted master. However, they did not expect that she was two-faced and so greedy behind the scenes.
"Second Miss Shen, you should have a conscience!" Someone sneered, "You hid such dishonest money, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Someone spat at Shen Qingyu in disdain, and cursed, "Bah, you little girl, you are so cruel, you only care about enriching yourself, but don't care about our lives!"
"Second Miss, please, this is our life-saving money!"
Some people begged desperately, as if Shen Qingyu was deliberately withholding their money.
A hint of coldness appeared on Shen Qingyu's face. Aunt Liu had also deducted her monthly allowance. Who should she ask for money?
She calmly glanced at the people who came to cause trouble. Most of them were farmers who grew tea for the Shen family's tea house, but there were also some unfamiliar faces, like local thugs and bullies who came to take advantage of the situation and rob.
Now Shen Qingyu still has nothing to understand. All of this was arranged by Aunt Liu.
The Shen family was a well-known family in Jinling Prefecture. If the wages were paid a month late, the farmers nearby would not dare to come to the Shen family's villa to cause trouble. But now, so many people gathered together and surrounded the Shen family's villa. How could it be possible that there was no one instigating behind the scenes?
Next, no matter what she said, it would be useless, because these people had already determined that she was the one who took the silver.
Aunt Liu, are you so impatient to let me go back that you are not hesitating to use such despicable means to embarrass me and prevent me from gaining a foothold in Yuntai Mountain?
The crowd was getting more and more excited. Even though Uncle Tian and his servants were guarding Shen Qingyu, they were outnumbered. If this continued, they would be swallowed up by the crowd sooner or later.
"Second Miss Shen, if you don't take out the silver today, you can't leave!"
"Second Miss Shen, you are a lady from a distinguished family, with delicate skin and tender flesh. If you are scratched by rough people like us, or if your precious body is touched, please don't blame us!"
"Brothers, look at the silk and satin that the second young lady of the Shen family is wearing. It should be worth a lot of silver. Even the maids around her are wearing the best quality materials. We have worked hard all our lives and have never touched such things. If we use their clothes to pay off the debt, it will be worth a lot of silver!"
The way they looked at Shen Qingyu and the others was somewhat lustful, as if they wanted to strip them naked.
It makes people extremely uncomfortable.
"How dare you! My young lady is the legitimate daughter of the Shen family. She has a noble status. How can I allow you to humiliate me so wantonly!"
Xiangyun was so angry that she felt like exploding. This guy was a thug and was so rude to the second young lady.
If the Second Miss were to be touched by these people today, her reputation would be ruined. Even if she could return home safely, I'm afraid the Master would deal with her first without waiting for Aunt Liu and the others to take action.
No, we must not let this happen.
"Oh, the maidservants around the Second Miss are quite pretty. How about this, Second Miss Shen, if you really can't come up with the money, we can give you a few days, but you have to give us a few of your maidservants to play with. How do you think?"
What a bunch of despicable, shameless and vulgar people!
Xiangyun and the others' faces suddenly turned pale.
If you fall into the hands of these people, at best your innocence will be lost, and at worst your life will be in danger!
"Second Miss, you run first. We, the servants, will protect you until death!"
Even though they were filled with fear, for Shen Qingyu's safety, the three of them all agreed to let Shen Qingyu survive first.
run?
Can you run away?
Where else can you run to?
She, Shen Qingyu, never thought of running away!
The small purple gold hand warmer in his arms had gradually grown cold and no longer had a trace of warmth.
Shen Qingyu knew in her heart that if these people destroyed the innocence of her personal maid, it would be equivalent to destroying her, Shen Qingyu, and it would become a handle to control her.
If a personal maid of a young lady from an aristocratic family had her innocence ruined, who would believe that the young lady from an aristocratic family who was with the personal maid could still retain her innocence?
"Second Miss Shen, what do you think?" A man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks smiled lewdly, "If Second Miss is reluctant to part with your personal maid, then we will have to be disrespectful to you, Second Miss. Second Miss, if we offend you, you will have to bear it!"
"How dare you!" Shen Qingyu said coldly, and with a throw of her white hand, the small purple gold hand warmer in her hand fell directly at the man's feet, scaring the pointed-faced man. When the second young lady got angry, her eyes were really scary, full of scarlet blood, as if she was bloodthirsty.
This shout, with an unbearable majesty and the innate nobility of a prominent family, made everyone present subconsciously afraid. After all, she was a daughter of a prestigious family, who was not someone that ordinary people like them could afford to offend. Normally, they didn't even dare to look at her from afar. Now, if they were not desperate, how could they dare to go to the villa to force the high and mighty Second Miss Shen.
"You said that the mansion gave the silver to me. Then I want to ask you, which bastard servant of our Shen family said that and dared to frame the master like this!"
Those farmers came here because they were instigated, so they are not to be feared. However, these ruffians who led the riot probably took the money from Aunt Liu, so it would be difficult to get rid of them.
Shen Qingyu suppressed her anger and calmly observed the people in front of her. These people came to make trouble under the pretext that the Shen family had withheld the farmers' wages. If she had money, it would not be difficult to solve the problem. However, she did not have much money left. She could afford to pay the wages of dozens of farmers, but not hundreds of farmers, and the managers of the tea house. That was not enough.
"Yes, it's Steward Wang from your mansion!"
These people were obviously well prepared, so they could naturally answer the questions asked by Shen Qingyu.
He immediately mentioned a manager of the Shen family named Wang.
Shen Qingyu understood in her heart that the man was promoted by Concubine Liu, so he must follow Concubine Liu's orders. It seems that in order to make such a scene, Concubine Liu had planned everything out, so that she would fall into this trap and could not escape.
