    Chapter 84

    Du Shiyi had never been so embarrassed in his life, and wished he could find a hole to burrow into.

    "Isn't it 80,000 taels..." As soon as the words came out, he regretted that he had said the wrong thing, which was equivalent to a disguised admission. "I mean, if you think too much, our Du family will definitely not rob other people's things for no reason. I... I don't have that much money with me, so I go back and get it... After all, I didn't plan to go out."

    Mu Wanqing bowed gently and skillfully, "It turns out that I misunderstood, and I will make up for the Eleventh Master, the shopkeeper, don't panic, the Eleventh Master is just going back to withdraw the money, ah, in fact, why is it so troublesome? Write a note and ask Xiao Er to pick it up, it will save you running back and forth, it's too hard."

    Xiao Er immediately took out a pen and paper and sent it to Du Shiyi.

    Du Shiyi was unable to ride a tiger, and his face was flushed, but he could not lose the reputation of the Du family.

    Otherwise, the up and down of the Du family will make him unable to eat and walk around.

    When it reached Du Shuai's ears, it was even more fatal.

    "Book half upfront..."

    The shopkeeper ran over quickly, holding an exquisite treasure chest in his hand, and carefully opened the box, "Eleventh Master, how about this finished product?"

    The crowd erupted violently with the sound of air-conditioning, and was taken away by the bright light of the jewels.

    So beautiful, exquisite craftsmanship, ruby ​​and sapphire complement each other, it can be called a work of art.

    He introduced with a smile on his face, "Look at this golden phoenix inlaid with treasures, its head is high, its wings are ready to fly, the phoenix body is covered with beautiful scales and feathers, and only four sapphires and five rubies are inlaid in each part. The materials used are all rare, lifelike and magnificent, it is the highest craftsmanship in the world, and it is hard to find.”

    This is just one piece of jewelry.

    More and more people were watching, and they were all shocked.

    Someone couldn't help but ask, "This is too beautiful, the shopkeeper, do you sell it alone?"

    The shopkeeper shook his head slightly, "I'm sorry, Master Eleven has already bought a unique treasure."

    The man looked at it eagerly, "Can you make a pick with this style? I'll buy it for any amount."

    The shopkeeper looked embarrassed, "I'm sorry, this set is from the top craftsmen in the capital, and the small shop can't imitate it, let alone the ability of the small shop to collect such a good gem."

    Everyone's envious eyes were red and drooling.

    "Eleventh Master, it's because you have a good eye and you start fast, which is really enviable."

    "Eleventh Master, this set of jewelry is a palace style. It is very rare. You can earn it when you buy it."

    Good is good, but how can he have that much money?

    The shopkeeper didn't rush, just waited quietly.

    The others looked at the exquisite jewelry and Du Shiyi, who had a bad face, and couldn't help but make up their minds.

    Does he have no money? So why place an order? Isn't this a joke?

    Perhaps, the girl's accusation is true, and this is not the Du family's style.

    There were dense beads of sweat oozing from Du Shiyi's forehead.

    He calculated people, and he couldn't be blunt, he could only act secretly, and he had to turn a few corners.

    Like Li Baihu, the targets of his bullying are exiles and slaves, all of whom are the most deprived of human rights. It doesn't matter if a few die.

    However, ordinary good people dare not touch it.

    At this moment, a gorgeous carriage came over, and a lady was helped down by the maid.

    She looked anxious, "Husband, why do you want to buy any jewelry? I don't lack these, don't buy it, let's go, let's go home."

    How can there be 90,000 silver in the family? The house and carriage they live in are all handed down from their ancestors, and there is a set-in fee for the side branch. The usual expenses are provided by the clan, so there is no need to worry about food and drink, but there are also restrictions.

    Twenty taels of silver are issued every month, four sets of clothes per season, and a batch of New Year's goods at the end of the year.

    Those in the army also have a salary.

    But it's not enough to want brocade clothes and jade food, it depends on each family's ability to make money.

    Business is allowed, but it cannot be bullied or robbed.

    Most of the shops in the most prosperous Cross Commercial Street are opened by the Du family.

    However, Liangcheng is not a commercial center, the people don't have much money, it is not prosperous enough, and the Du family does not have any outstanding business talents.

    Of course, those whose ancestors were rich were still rich, and those who were particularly poor could not survive.

    "Puchi." Mu Wanqing smiled.

    Mrs. Du Shiyi glared at her, "What are you laughing at?"

    Mu Wanqing raised her eyes slightly and let out a sarcastic smile, "It's...it's interesting, hahaha."

    She didn't seem to say anything, but in fact, she said everything.

    Three points of ridicule, three points of disdain, and four points of banter.

    Du Shiyi felt an evil fire rushed towards his forehead, and he brushed away his wife's hand, "Who said I wouldn't buy it?"

    Her tone and eyes were so irritating that even a man with self-respect couldn't bear it.

    "Wait a moment, I'll be right back."

    He left in a hurry, leaving Madam Eleven looking annoyed.

    What to buy? What does he buy? What's wrong with him?

    "The shopkeeper, what the hell is going on? You don't give him some kind of drug, do you?"

    "Look at what you said, how can I have that ability?" The shopkeeper laughed, "Open the door to do business, Eleven will buy it, and I will sell it."

    Madam Du Shiyi stared at Mu Wanqing, her eyes full of displeasure, "Who is she?"

    The shopkeeper was silent, "Customers who come to buy jewelry."

    Yes, the little girl has checked your details thoroughly, but you don't know anything, so it's no wonder that you don't lose.

    Madam Du Shiyi kept interrogating her, but the shopkeeper explained patiently, but Mu Wanqing ignored her, treating her like air.

    Just when Mrs. Eleven became more and more anxious, Du Shiyi came back, followed by a few clan brothers.

    "The banknotes are all here, you can count them."

    The shopkeeper smiled and counted the money in person, "Yes, the number is correct, Eleven Master, this set of jewelry is yours."

    He took the treasure chest from the small second-hand and respectfully handed it to Du Shiyi.

    Du Shiyi took the treasure box and thought about it, then turned it over and brought it to Mu Wanqing, "Miss Mu, this set of jewelry is for you."

    Everyone was shocked.

    Madam Du Shiyi was even more shocked, "Husband."

    Mu Wanqing stood with her hands behind her back, her brows unhappy, "No merit will not be rewarded."

    Du Shiyi's eyes were burning, and he was bound to win, "This is a dowry gift, I will come to welcome you in three days."

    His wishful thinking started, and the dowry will be brought along, and there are many secret recipes as dowry.

    This is a great deal.

    One word stirred up a thousand waves, and immediately triggered a wave of upsurge.

    There were more and more people watching, and the discussions were extremely noisy.

    Mrs. Du Shiyi's eyes turned black for a while, "Husband, what did you say? Say it again."

    Du Shiyi laughed, full of will, "Madam, she is a flat wife. In the future, you will all be the daughter-in-law of my Du family, regardless of age. You are a little older, so you should take good care of your new sister."

    Madam Du Shiyi was trembling in her heart and couldn't believe it, "You... are you serious?"

    The man was high-spirited, as if everything was under his control, "Women should be generous and virtuous. You should let her be more when she is young. Sisters are friendly, can you promise me?"

    "I..." Mrs. Du Shiyi's eyes were red, but she couldn't utter those two words.

    "Pfft." Mu Wanqing, the party involved, was amused.

    Puxin man, he is so ordinary and so confident.

    Du Shiyi waved at her, "Miss Mu, come over to see your sister."

    Mu Wanqing stood still, her tone was cold and solemn, "Eleventh Master, are you mentally ill? How can you be so affectionate? You think you are the emperor, so you can marry whoever you want? Even if you are a flat wife, you swear. Are you worthy of taking your urine photos?"

    These words are too ugly, and Du Shiyi's expression changed.

    Mrs. Du Shiyi became unhappy, "You won't marry?"

    Mu Wanqing said with a smile, "What do I want? To picture him being old? To picture him not taking a bath? To picture him sassy?"

    "Hahaha." The onlookers burst into laughter.

    Du Shiyi became angry, "Mu Wanqing, you are so courageous."

    Mu Wanqing gave a strange surprise, "How do you know my name? Today is the first time we meet."

    "My surname is Du, the eleventh master of the Du family. It is your luck that I see you."

    Mu Wanqing looked at him like an idiot, and was completely unmoved, "I am a person who pursues one person for the rest of my life, and my husband can only have me alone, otherwise, I would rather be alone for the rest of my life, Master Eleven, you have already Marrying a wife is disqualifying."

    Who knows, Du Shiyi said, "You have to marry if you don't want to marry. The face of the Du family is not something that a mere woman can afford..."

    Not only is Mu Wanqing not afraid, she is even more mad than he is, "Then I have to go see Du Shuai and ask myself, the Du clan is tyrannizing, bullying men and bullying women, and using their surname as a gold medal for the common people to avoid death, Whether he cares or not? If not, I will ask the king if the guarding side is qualified to fish and meat border with the people?"

    Everyone's face changed, especially the clan brothers who followed Du Shiyi to watch the fun.

    I thought it was a romantic affair that you love and I want, and I spent a lot of money just to get the beauty back, but the result is not?

    Mu Wanqing said righteously, "The Du family has guarded one side for generations, resisted foreign enemies, and sheltered the people of one side. The people cherished their hearts and dared not forget them for a moment. Trample and spoil."

    Du Shiyi was dazed by his anger, "Hehe, you seem to have forgotten your identity, you are just a refugee."

    Refugees? Everyone looked at each other with complicated expressions.

    Refugees who make mistakes have no human rights, and anyone can step on them, but this Miss Mu is imposing, and Gao Hua cannot commit crimes. How can she look like a refugee?

    "But, the refugees don't look down on you either. You have the honorable surname of Du, but you do filthy things. I feel sorry for the ancestors of the Du clan, and the descendants of the heroes of the ancestors are bears, hey, no matter what."

    Her mouth was too poisonous, causing Du Shiyi to tremble in anger, "You...you..."

    Mu Wanqing glanced at him contemptuously, then turned her head and revealed a sweet smile.

    "Hello everyone, I'm Mu Wanqing, the patriarch of the Mu clan. Our snack street in Nancheng will open on the 18th of next month. If you don't give up, the people in the city can go get a free sign and get a snack for free. One thousand in total, first come, first served."

    Taking this opportunity, she advertised her own snack street, and she must let the people of the city know about it.

    As soon as they heard this, everyone immediately forgot about the refugees. "Eat for free?"

    Nothing is more exciting than free.

    Mu Wanqing nodded with a smile, "Yes, there are a total of 1,000 free places, and there are hundreds of delicious foods, you can choose at will."

    The people were curious, "Is it true? Why have we never heard of a snack street?"

    Mu Wanqing has always been an impeccable workman, and likes to kill two birds with one stone, or kill several birds with one stone.

    "It's a snack street run by our Mu family. The specific location is in Shazi Hutong. There will also be various celebration activities, such as buy one get one free in the first three days, and lottery activities. By the way, the grand prize is free for one year. ."

    She is willing to play with Du Shiyi, just want to make things bigger, and step on Du Shiyi to advertise.

    Yes, Du Shiyi is a tool man.

    When they heard this, everyone was excited. "Do I have to wait until next month? Couldn't it be earlier?"

    Mu Wanqing smiled brightly and said, "We also want to go earlier, but all the preparations have not been completed, we must do the best we can, so that the people of Liangcheng can taste the rich and delicious snacks, our Mu family sincerely invites Everyone's coming."

    This remark aroused everyone's curiosity and filled with expectations.

    Someone suddenly exclaimed, "Ah, you offended the Du family, can the snack bar still open as scheduled?"

    Mu Wanqing couldn't help laughing, these people were so cute, they were worried for her. "Of course, the Du family is good, and we mustn't let a mouse feces ruin a pot of porridge. I believe in the clear name accumulated by the Du family over the generations, and I believe in Du Shuai's character."

    "But please keep your eyes open and supervise. If something happens to me, it must be the Du Shiyi brothers. I have three longs and two shorts. It doesn't matter, but I definitely can't let the Du family's clear name be ruined."

    "No one with a conscience would allow something like that to happen, right?"

    The people nodded subconsciously, "Yes." They all have a conscience and hold their chests!

    Seeing her take control of the situation, the expressions of the Du family members were extremely ugly, especially Du Shiyi, whose family seemed to be dead.

    Mu Wanqing walked over slowly, lowered her voice and chuckled, "Du Shiyi, have you seen it? This is public opinion, this is public opinion, and public opinion in my hand is a sharp sword, I want to fight where I want, what happened to the refugees? Still crushing you, idiot."

    Du Shiyi gasped, "You...you already know who I am?"

    Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows, "Of course, Du Jiu's brother Du Shiyi, all your information is in my mind. From the moment you stepped into the store, I knew who you were."

    "Unfortunately, you are so stupid and still want to plot against me. I will push the boat and accompany you to play with you. Thank you for helping me promote it. My snack street has become famous, hahaha."

    Du Shiyi's qi and blood rolled, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

    Mu Wanqing looked in her eyes and looked surprised, "Hey, I'm vomiting blood in anger, how can I be so narrow-minded? Should I talk to Du Shuai? We can't just fight the war, we should take care of our ideology and morality.."
