Quick Wear: I've never been a good person

Chapter 408: Dressed as a Widow Without a Man (23)

"Oh, it wouldn't hurt to check in the car.

I'm just wondering which family these young men are from? They're actually setting up a roadblock here without permission. I wonder if the magistrate is aware of this."

"Hey, my lady, how can you say that? We are only searching for a fugitive slave in the mansion. The magistrate will certainly understand."

"Oh, checking for runaway slaves? Shouldn't they be checking those who have left the city? Why are they checking even those who have entered the city? This is really strange. Is that runaway slave so stupid? He escaped and came back on his own initiative?"

Shuangshuang's words resonated with the people waiting for the inspection nearby.

There are a few people here who are burning incense and praying in the temple outside the city. They are tired from climbing the mountain and just want to go back to take a bath and have a good rest. Anyone would be in a bad mood if they were stopped like this.

Several of them were taking their children out of town to visit relatives. The children were already tired of riding in the carriages, and when they were stopped from leaving, they started crying.

Seeing that Shuangshuang spoke in a rather tough manner, the servant immediately nodded and begged Shuangshuang to let him check.

"I'm fine with you guys checking, but all my stuff was exchanged for money by the mountain folks. Be careful, the car's damaged."

When the servants heard that they were mountain people, their attitudes immediately became more friendly. Who doesn’t know this mountain person?

Even if they kill people, there is nothing we can do to them. The worst that can happen is that they will never come to this place again in their lifetime.

Shuangshuang was also very generous and directly lifted the curtain to let them see.

At first, when the two men saw the two moving sacks, their eyes changed and they immediately opened the bags to check.

As a result, several pheasants flew out, and so did the rabbits. It was as if they were waiting for the bag to open so that they could escape. Two of them jumped out as soon as the bag was opened.

Shuangshuang was so angry that she started to yell, "Are you guys doing this on purpose? Are you blind and can't you see? Is there anyone hiding in here?

"The sack is packed with things, so they're obviously wild animals, right?"

The servants ignored Shuangshuang's shouting and cursing and rushed to catch them. Unfortunately, these pheasants could fly and the rabbits ran even faster, so they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The servants all looked at Huanyan with sad faces, "My dear lady, I... this... this..."

"What's this? Three pheasants and two rabbits, you lost them, you must compensate me! I don't ask for much, just give me one tael of silver."

"One tael of silver? How can it be so expensive?"

"Then go and get all mine back. I don't want your money either."

"Catch them back?"

In the end, the few people could only blame themselves for their bad luck and lost a pair of coins.

Shuangshuang was in a very good mood when she saw the money. She took the initiative to greet people, "Come here, there are still a few bags. Come and take a look."

As he spoke, he took the initiative to open a sack. When the servants saw the delicious bacon, they all swallowed their saliva.

He continued, "Madam, what are your other bags?"

"It's bacon too! You can all take a look."

Shuangshuang opened a few more bags and showed them to them.

When they saw Shuangshuang opened several bags and found they were all filled with bacon, they knew that there was definitely no one hiding in the car.

After all, they all knew how badly the Third Young Master was injured, and there must have been a smell of blood.

So he personally helped tie up the opened sacks, and said to Huanyan in a flattering manner, "My dear lady, please come in, please come in. Please don't blame me for being so rude."

What the servants didn't know was that the bacon in the car had been smoked for so long that the smell covered up the bloody smell on Duan Ruichen's body.

As soon as we arrived at Hongyun Tower, the shopkeeper was sitting there dejectedly, with no mood to entertain guests.

His boss has been missing for three days. During these three days, he sent people to search the entire county and surrounding towns, but he still couldn't find him. He didn't know how he was doing now?

They both went upstairs and shouted directly, "Boss, I brought you some smoked bacon. Come down and take a look yourself, and then ask someone to carry it."

When the shopkeeper saw that it was Shuangshuang, he said "oh" twice and responded with energy.

"Mrs. Qi, how many pounds of bacon do you have?"

2 “Not much, just over pounds.

Because I made it myself, if you take a look at it and it’s okay, I’ll go buy a few more pigs and make some.”

The two men came to the mule cart while talking, and saw the bacon sacks being opened one by one. Although the shopkeeper was very happy, he really couldn't muster up the energy.

The shopkeeper was about to assign someone to unload the goods when Shuangshuang suddenly whispered to him, "Duan Ruichen is inside."

"What?" The shopkeeper was so excited that he thought he was hallucinating.

"Shopkeeper, let me move it for you. It's so late, I need to unload the goods and go back early.

As she spoke, she moved over and opened the sacks, taking out Duan Ruichen's as well, "Come on, I'll carry it up for you."

The shopkeeper was still very excited and quickly said, "Thank you, Madam Qi. Could you please help me move this upstairs?"

Then he instructed the waiters, "Move carefully and move all the goods to my room.

The Young Master had previously instructed that these be sent to the capital."

Shuangshuang didn't say anything, and carried the desperate Duan Ruichen upstairs, while the shopkeeper hurriedly led the way.

Knowing that the young master is back, he now feels like he is walking with the wind.

He kept thanking her, "Mrs. Qi, you don't know, but this batch of goods from you has been a great help to me.

I will buy as much of this stuff as you have in the future."

"Okay, I'll help you when I get back."

He took the payment from the shopkeeper and went straight home.

The next day, she came to Xu Yougen's house and told the three brothers to collect pigs for her.

It doesn't matter how much they weigh, you just charge fifteen cents for buying from them.

The Xu family was naturally very happy, as this was a business that was sure to make a profit.

Niuniu also asked happily, "Aunt, have you sold the bacon?"

"I sold it, but the boss still wants it."

Yuan asked hurriedly, "How many do you want this time?"

"Ten, maybe. They have to weigh at least 150 kilograms. The bigger the better."

The next day, starting in the morning, people started delivering pigs to the door one after another, all of them were villagers.

It took me a whole day to finish all the ten pigs.

It was Xu Yougen and his wife who came over to help when they saw their son and daughter-in-law had not returned after sending them off.

My eldest cousin and second cousin’s wife cooked dinner in the evening.

Shuangshuang cut a piece of meat weighing three or four pounds and asked them to make braised pork, but they were unwilling to do so.

It would be a waste if so much pork offal is not eaten.

The next day, Shuangshuang did not go to the mountain again, but caught two wild boars and divided them to make bacon.

The main reason is that the smokehouse is so big, it would be a waste to leave it empty.

Another night, wealth came to the family, and even a huge fortune came.

They came here specifically to bring wealth and fortune, because Dunzi was going to the provincial capital to take an exam, and asked the two boys to take care of him.
