"Mom, I brought a few guests to choose things." Hu Ya hurried forward to support the old woman.

The old woman was not happy when she heard this, but nervous and scared: "Hu Ya, no, no! What if those people find out?"

"Mom, we can't stop doing business because of those scoundrels, can we?" Hu Ya said indignantly, "It's been several months and we haven't made any deals. If this continues, our family will be left with nothing. Xiaorong also needs money to buy medicine."

"But, but..."

"Mom, don't panic! I don't believe they dare to come and make trouble again. If they come, I will report to the police!"

"But, we have reported it before, but no yamen runner dared to offend them..."

"Mom!" Hu Ya interrupted her hurriedly, "Mom, please go inside and rest. I still have to entertain the guests."

Without saying anything, he helped the old woman into the house.

Ye Feng took off his mask and looked at Lu Ke'er.

Huya returned from the house and was stunned when his eyes met Ye Feng's face without the mask.

"Sir...you...you are so handsome!" He smiled naively, revealing his little canine teeth.

Seeing that his eyes were clear and without any distracting thoughts, Ye Feng relaxed his expression, nodded, and asked, "What trouble has your family gotten into?"

Huya shook his head: "It's okay, it's okay. Sir, Miss, let me show you the carriage."

The carriage was placed in a corner of the yard, covered with a layer of opaque oilcloth. When the oilcloth was lifted, a brand new carriage came into view. The carriage was made of elm wood and painted with purple paint, which looked simple and elegant. The carvings were exquisite, the lines were beautiful, and the parts fit very tightly, looking strong and durable. The two wooden wheels were made of pine wood, and the arc of the circle was also very standard. It can be seen that a lot of effort was spent on making and polishing.

"You have good skills." Lu Ke'er praised sincerely.

"This carriage should be customized by another customer, right?" Ye Feng's deep eyes fell on Hu Ya's face, "Why does that customer want to return it again?"

The smile on Huya's face suddenly froze.

"Sir... Sir, what are you talking about?" His eyes wandered, "Don't worry, there is really no problem with the quality of this carriage."

"The biggest problem is that the product was returned even though there was no problem." Ye Feng's indifferent eyes darkened slightly. "Who did you offend? Or who was maliciously targeting you?"

Huya was stunned.

Lu Ke'er was also stunned.

Thinking of Huya's mother's reaction when she learned that Huya was selling furniture, Lu Ke'er had a guess in her mind: "Xiao Xiao, do you mean that Huya's family got into trouble? Those people don't let Huya sell things?"

Ye Feng nodded: "Even the yamen runners dare not offend this man, it seems that this man is a bully in the county."

Huya looked at Ye Feng with more and more surprise and admiration.

Lu Ke'er frowned and argued, "But Lord Fang is not such a person. I won't be wrong. He still has some character of a wise minister. He would not be afraid of offending this bully!"

"He himself is not afraid, but what about his subordinates?" Although Ye Feng did not want to praise Fang Xingzheng's character in front of Lu Ke'er, he still recognized Fang Xingzheng and said frankly, "In the officialdom, there are many bad behaviors of deceiving superiors and hiding the truth from subordinates. Fang Xingzheng's connections are mostly in the capital, but he has no foundation in this small Xilin County of Luzhou. I guess there are still some subordinates who take advantage of the situation and deceive him."

Lu Ke'er thought about it and realized that it was true, so she asked Hu Ya, "Who did you offend?"

Hu Ya looked very conflicted. He just wanted to sell some of the finished products as soon as possible to earn some money to supplement his family income, and he didn't want to involve customers.

Deep down, he was also afraid to tell the truth and scare away customers.

"This is our family's business, please don't ask too much." Hu Ya gritted his teeth and finally chose not to say anything, "Don't worry, this carriage was indeed returned. But I assure you that the carriage is new and has never been used. It is of absolutely top quality and the price is absolutely fair. As you can see, my family is in urgent need of money, so I can sell it to you at a lower price..."

At this moment, a sneer came from outside the courtyard gate, and then the gate was kicked open by someone.

Several men dressed in tight clothes walked in. They glanced at Ye Feng and Lu Ke'er, and there was a flash of surprise in their eyes.

The man in the lead had a rat-like face. He stared at Lu Ke'er with lustful eyes and a lewd smile on his face.

Although the girl was dressed simply, she was bright and beautiful, with a pair of cold and charming eyes that seemed to be able to speak. When had such a beauty appeared in Xilin County?

And the boy next to the girl is also top-notch.

Ye Feng's eyes suddenly turned cold, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Tiger Fang's eyes were blazing with fire. He hurriedly walked in front of Lu Ke'er, blocking the man's sight, and shouted angrily: "Jialu, it's you again! What do you want to do?"

"What?" Jialu glanced at him contemptuously and snorted, "Our young master has long said that if your sister spoils his fun, he will make your family miserable!"

He turned his head to Lu Ke'er and grinned, "Little girl, are you here to buy furniture? What kind of furniture? With your beauty, as long as you are willing to follow me, I promise to let you eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks, live in a house inlaid with gold and jade and enjoy a comfortable life."

As soon as he finished speaking, the people behind Jialu burst into laughter.

"The young lady has fair skin and beautiful looks, she will definitely win the love of our young master."

"Maybe our Master will take her as his eighteenth concubine if he falls in love with her."

"Look at her attire, she looks like a commoner and doesn't seem to know anything. Why does she need to learn more to serve others..."

"Don't worry, our young master is the most compassionate and kind to women. He will teach the young lady well. Haha!"

Lu Ke'er's face was cold.

She didn't notice that Ye Feng beside her had cold eyes. He raised his hand and made a strange gesture.

Huya's face turned red with anger.

"Shut up!" He yelled, "This girl is a customer who came to buy things. She has nothing to do with my family. Whatever you want to do, just come at me! Don't involve her!"

Looking back, he whispered to Lu Ke'er, "Girl, you and this young man should leave quickly!"

Lu Ke'er secretly clenched her fists and gathered her spiritual energy on them.

Anger rose in her chest.

These people were all shrouded in a layer of black evil spirit, which showed that they had done many evil things!

"Go? Where to?" Jia Lu sneered, "Little girl, who told you to enter the Zhu family's courtyard today? If you don't want to suffer, just follow us."

"Where do you want me to go?" Lu Ke'er suddenly smiled and asked.

Seeing this smile was like a plum blossom in full bloom, Jia Lu couldn't help but be moved. He couldn't help but soften his tone and patiently explained: "Of course it's the Jia Mansion."

"Which Jia Mansion?" Lu Ke'er asked curiously, "Is it the Jia Mansion of the foster brother of the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo? Could it be that Master Jia is the son of that foster brother?"
