Chapter 375: Desperate to see through
But no matter how hard Qiao Yueru knocked, the door remained motionless.
Qiao Yueru spotted a large brick on the ground, bent down to pick it up, and then pounded it against the door with great force.
The crowd that was originally watching the excitement now gathered around when they heard the noise, and they all stretched their necks to look over here.
Si Xinyue hid inside and refused to come out, but Qiao Yueru was standing outside the door and seemed to be getting more and more courageous as she hammered.
Bang, bang, bang! The bricks hit the door with a loud noise, almost knocking a hole in it.
Thinking that Si Xinyue was afraid of her, Qiao Yueru beat and scolded her, and a series of unpleasant words came out of her mouth.
She had a brick in her hand and was about to hit it again when the door suddenly opened from the inside.
Qiao Yue was stunned and stopped what she was doing consciously. Two guys came out with unfriendly faces, and Qiao Yue subconsciously took a few steps back.
The last person to come out was Si Xinyue. She had a frosty face and eyes filled with contempt and disgust.
"Go to the government office and report that someone is causing trouble outside my store. Ask the prefect to arrest her and put her in jail for a few months."
"You are not allowed to go." Qiao Yueru became anxious when she heard this. She had just been released from prison today and did not want to go in again.
The prison is simply not a place for human beings to stay. It is cold, damp and the environment is extremely bad. The food we eat every day is not even as good as the water used to wash pots.
"Go quickly and come back soon." Si Xinyue ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes, the boss." A young waiter answered, and he stepped sideways past Qiao Yueru and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
"Si Xinyue, you vicious woman, not only did you not help me, you also wanted to send me to jail. You have such a vicious heart." In fact, Qiao Yueru knew that she was not in the right in today's matter, but she refused to give in.
"Qiao Yueru, you came to my shop and made a scene today. I don't want to waste any more time talking to you. If you leave now, it's still not too late. If you wait a little longer and the bailiffs come, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave even if you want to."
At this moment, Si Xinyue regretted very much. She shouldn't have been soft-hearted and sympathized with her, which caused so many troubles. Some people just couldn't pity her.
The more you pity her, the more she becomes arrogant. Doesn't she know her own weight?
"Give me the silver and I'll leave immediately." Qiao Yueru was anxious. The waiter had already gone to report to the police. She believed that the bailiffs would be here soon, and by then she might not be able to leave.
"That silver originally belonged to me, but now I don't want to give it to you, so I'm taking it back, and you don't have to think about it anymore."
Although the amount of money is not much, Si Xinyue doesn't want to give her a penny now. If she gives it to her today, with Qiao Yueru's temper, she will come to her every now and then to ask for money, and she won't be able to get rid of her by then.
In this case, then kill her hopes in the cradle. Everyone has their own way of living. What does it have to do with her what happens to Qiao Yueru in the future?
"Just wait for me, I will come again." Seeing that she really couldn't come, Qiao Yueru had to leave first. If she didn't leave now, the yamen runners would come and she would not be able to leave.
Picking up the tattered clothes on the ground, Qiao Yueru, leaning on her walking stick, quickly disappeared into the crowd.
As soon as she left, the young man came back from the crowd. It turned out that he did not go to the government office to report the case, but it was a trick used by Si Xinyue.
Qiao Yueru pounded the ground hard with her crutch, as if that was Si Xinyue, venting all her resentment.
Damn Si Xinyue, sooner or later he will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death.
Before, at Si Xinyue's place, she took a shower and changed clothes, but was thrown to the ground by the waiter. She was covered in mud and her hair was messy, but Qiao Yueru didn't care about that now.
It was already evening and people were hurrying along the road, all eager to get home, but Qiao Yueru had nowhere to go. As she walked, she arrived at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion.
If she can't find a place to live today, she will really be homeless. She was a high and mighty official's daughter just a few days ago, but now she has fallen to this point. Qiao Yueru is unwilling to accept it. She is really unwilling to accept it. Why does the damn God treat her like this?
When she arrived at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, Qiao Yueru did not rush over, but hid in a corner and observed secretly.
Her grandmother was just a concubine in the Marquis's Mansion. If she wanted to live here, she had to inform the old lady. Given the relationship between Li Xiaoxiao and the old lady, it was probably impossible for her to live here.
Then she would have to think of another way. In this Marquis' Mansion, the only people she could have a say over were Tang Xiuwen and Si Wei Zhong.
I just don’t know when Si Wei Zhong will come back. If I go to his restaurant at this time, I probably won’t find him. So I’ll just wait here. He probably hasn’t come back yet.
The sky gradually darkened. Qiao Yueru hid in a corner. The buns that Si Xinyue gave her had long been digested.
Now she was thirsty, hungry, tired and sleepy, but she dared not close her eyes for fear of missing Si Wei Zhong. But why was it so late and he hadn't come back yet?
The weather was fine during the day, but at night the temperature dropped and Qiao Yueru was shivering from the cold.
Finally, when she was looking forward to it, a carriage slowly passed by her. Qiao Yueru recognized the owner of the carriage at a glance.
"Uncle, please stop the carriage. I am Yueru, I am Yueru." This carriage belonged to Si Wei Zhong.
Qiao Yueru took two quick steps and grabbed the edge of the carriage to prevent it from moving forward. Si Wei Zhong, who was sitting in the carriage, had a splitting headache, and the increasingly bleak business was extremely annoying.
When he suddenly heard the voice, his brows frowned even deeper. He and Qiao Qingze were officials in the same dynasty. He had heard about Qiao Qingze's affairs a long time ago, but he didn't take it seriously.
I heard that he was reported by someone and left evidence of his actions, so he couldn't blame others. On the day when Qiao Qingze and his wife were exiled, he did not go to see them off.
At a time like this, he must draw a line in the sand, otherwise he might be implicated by them for no apparent reason. He still has a bunch of things to deal with, so why would he go looking for trouble?
Another point is that Qiao Qingze was exiled and he probably won't be able to come back in this lifetime. So let's just break off this relationship. There's no point in keeping it.
When he first heard Qiao Yueru's voice, Si Wei Zhong's eyes flashed with deep impatience and disgust. Last time Qiao Yueru said she would deal with Li Xiaoxiao, she failed to do so and got herself into trouble.
But now Qiao Yueru was pulling the carriage and wouldn't let him go, so Si Wei Zhong had no choice but to be patient and pull open the small curtain on the window beside the carriage.
It was completely dark. The moment the small curtain was drawn, the faint light from the oil lamp in the carriage shone through the small window onto Qiao Yueru's face.
