Enter Chang Xiangsi and help Jingzhai fight
Chapter 101 Thief
Yu Xin nodded and said yes, looking very respectful.
I looked at Tu Shanjing again, and he nodded again. Only then did I dare to stretch out the hand that didn't hold the candied haws and take the garnet bracelet. Tu Shanjing saw that my hands were full, and helped me put the bracelet on my hand.
Boss Long stroked his beard and smiled, "Thank you, Master Qingqiu! Look, this bracelet is so suitable for this girl with fire in her eyes!"
Tu Shanjing looked at my wrist and praised, "It really makes my skin look as white as snow, so beautiful and charming."
After hearing his praise, the bitterness that had surged in my heart disappeared without a trace. His words seemed to have some kind of spiritual power, making me feel like I was falling into the deep sea and leaping into the clouds.
I bowed to Boss Long and thanked him.
At this time, Yu Xin bowed and said to Boss Long: "Then Boss Long, I will come to Fenglin Tower to pick up the goods in three days, and I will thank you then. Unfortunately, you and I have other things to do today, so we have to leave now. We will meet again tomorrow."
Boss Long waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay!", and pretended to send us out.
Tu Shanjing hurriedly stopped him: "Boss Long, please stay! You don't have to see me off."
Boss Long uttered a “cough!” and said, “There’s no reason for me to sit in front of the store when my customers and friends are leaving. I’m not too old to move, so it’s no big deal if I send them off!”
Tu Shanjing then put down his hand, bowed to him, and led us out of the store with him seeing us off.
Not far from the store, Ruiyang came running over with a bag of meat patties. The aroma of beef mixed with a hint of black pepper and chopped green onions wafted over from a distance. It was just as he said, he had never smelled such fragrant meat patties anywhere else.
He saw Tu Shanjing and Yu Xin, waved his arms from a distance, ran closer and called out, "Miss, I had a hard time looking for you! How come Master and Brother Yu are here too?"
Tu Shanjing said, "We met by chance. It was cold standing outside, so I asked her to go into the store. But where did you go?"
Ruiyang held up his bag of meat patties like he was presenting a treasure, and said excitedly, "Ma's Meat Patties, the most famous around here! I'm lucky today, they're not sold out at this time, I'll go queue up and buy a bag. Sir and Brother Yu, would you like to try some?"
Yu Xin stroked his beard and laughed, "You little brat! Even with your claws broken, you still don't forget to grab the delicious food! You are such a greedy cat!"
Tu Shanjing also smiled: "I won't eat yet. I have something to do with Yu Xin later, so I have to go now. You guys have a good look around, and buy anything you want to eat or need."
When I heard that he was leaving, my little thought that he would walk around with us was dashed. I felt a little reluctant, but I couldn't ask him to stay and delay his work, so I could only whisper, "Then be careful, young master and brother Yu. Come back soon after you finish your work. We have some good food for you to taste when you come back."
Tu Shanjing lowered his head and looked at me with a smile, his eyes full of tenderness, and replied, "Okay."
As soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed, and he raised his hand and a light blue light shot towards me.
I was startled and looked back, only to see the boy who bumped into me before entering the store, covering his arm and rolling on the ground in pain.
Tu Shanjing said sternly: "It was you who tried to steal her sword just now, but I let you go because you were young. Why don't you learn your lesson and still hang around us and steal his purse?!"
Ruiyang shuddered, moved the meat pie bag to the hand with the hanging arm, touched his waist with the other hand, his face changed color, turned around and picked up the boy, took back a brown satin sycamore leaf embroidered with gold rims purse from him, and said angrily: "Great! You are so bold! You stole from your grandfather?! Tell me, did anyone instruct you?!"
The kid cried out in pain, barely raising his arms to block the attack, begging for mercy again and again: "Masters, spare me, please spare me! No one ordered me to do this. I just saw that you were dressed luxuriously and had many treasures on you, so I had evil thoughts... I was starving and had no other choice, so I did this evil thing. Please, let me go!"
I saw that his raised hands were covered with chilblains and his clothes were torn, and I felt a little sympathetic. Looking around, people who were originally strolling around were looking around and gathering to watch the fun.
I was afraid that Tu Shanjing and Yu Xin were doing something secret, and it would be bad if it got out, so I winked at Tu Shanjing and said, "Even if you are poor, you should have ambition! You have hands and feet, and you can earn a few buns by doing something. I will report you to the authorities now, so that you won't go down a wrong path in the future. I will teach you a lesson!"
The boy struggled to get away, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "Madam, you are right! But my sister has caught a cold and is bedridden at home. I am busy taking care of her and have no time to go out to work. Medicine is expensive and the money is quickly spent. Both of us have lost our parents and have no one to rely on. If I am locked up in jail, my sister will have no one to take care of her. I am afraid... I am afraid she won't last more than a few days! Please have mercy on me, Madam!"
I turned to Tu Shanjing and said, "Sir, this..." I didn't look at him, but still stared at the boy on the ground. He was lying down and thought I wasn't looking at him, so he raised his head slightly, turned around, and looked at the people around him, as if he was looking for something.
I then turned my gaze to Tu Shanjing. He exchanged glances with me calmly and said, "It is understandable, but the crime is unforgivable. Lanxiang, what do you think we should do?"
I replied, "Sir, he is pitiful and does have a hidden problem. Why don't we let him go today and let him atone for his sins when his sister gets better in the future? What do you think?"
When the boy heard this, he kowtowed to me several times and thanked me, "Thank you, the Bodhisattva! Madam, you are so kind and compassionate. I will definitely repay you!"
I saw that he seemed to thank me in advance so that my words would not go to waste, so I smiled bitterly, shook my head, and looked at Tu Shanjing.
Tu Shanjing nodded, took out some silver coins from his bosom and handed them to him: "Here is some money, you can use it to pay for your sister's medical treatment. When she recovers, go find a job. If you can't find one, go to Chenrong Mansion and find a man named Rongxin, and tell him that Tu Shanjing ordered him to find a job for you. Do you remember it?"
The boy's eyes lit up. He took the silver coins and thanked them repeatedly: "My lord, you are so kind. I will never forget it! Remember, remember, I will find Rong Xin from Chenrong Mansion. When I cure my sister, I will definitely repay you two for your kindness!"
Tu Shanjing said calmly: "Besides, you can go back now."
The boy kowtowed again, got up, turned around and looked at us, then nodded and walked away.
Tu Shanjing saw him walking not far away and said, "Yu Xin, I have set a tracking spell on the silver. Follow him and see who he reports to. I will do the rest by myself. You can go back to the inn directly after you find out."
Yu Xin said yes and followed in two steps.
