After crossing, I was miserable.

Qian Duoduo ran home in shame and anger, her face red. She ran back to her room and leaned against the door. She was a little nervous and a little flustered, but she felt like she had forgotten something important. She touched her face and decided to forget it.

After a moment of calm, he went to find Qian Yi. But Qian Yi was not in the house, so he asked, "Layue, where is Butler Zhou?"

"To reply to the eldest lady, Butler Zhou and the eldest young master went out together."

"Do you know where you went?"

"Miss, I'm not sure. I heard that he seemed to be going to look for some workers?" Layue said uncertainly.

"What about the young master? Why is he gone too?"

"Replying to Miss, it seems that they went out together."

Qian Duoduo held his forehead with his hands, feeling helpless. The brat who let himself go as soon as he came out said he was helping himself, but it was not clear where the help was from.

It's really worrying.

"Okay, I got it. I bought some fruit and forgot to tell you. In the kitchen, you, Qiudong, and Aunt Liu, go and clean it up, make some fruit salad, and then put it in the ice trough and wait for us to come back and eat it. Chunxia, ​​you go out with me, the old rules."

"Yes, Miss."

Qian Duoduo took out some of the ripe fruits in the space to avoid accumulating too much and having too little space.

There are some seasonal fruits such as lychee, watermelon, cantaloupe, bayberry, banana, dragon fruit, cantaloupe, etc. She also grows some seasonal fruits in the space.

These fruits all leave seeds and will be planted when the season is over. Some seeds will also be left in the winter. As long as there are enough seeds, you can plant whatever fruit you want to eat in the future.

The people in the mansion were no longer surprised by Qian Duoduo's purchase of fruit. At first, when they found a large ice jar in the kitchen, they were curious about how the young lady got so many fruits. Later, because there were so many fruits, everyone got used to it. Anyway, it was fine as long as there was something to eat.

Because Chunxia knows some martial arts, Qian Duoduo sometimes asks Chunxia to dress up as a man and go out with him. She also thought about changing back into women's clothes, but it is really inconvenient to communicate. Many people discriminate or bully because they are women. Qian Duoduo is too lazy to argue with such people, so it is better to make things more convenient for herself.

Chun Xia has a scar on her face, so she looks naturally fierce when she puts on men's clothes. Ordinary people are a little afraid of people with this kind of appearance. Qian Duoduo doesn't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Qian Duoduo went out this time mainly to go to the gold and silver shop and the bookstore to see if she could get some money in advance. The investment in this villa is indeed not small. She also wants to start construction in advance, and the investment from other people has not come in yet, so...

"Ah, my money!" When Qian Duoduo thought about investing money in the villa, she suddenly realized why she was panicking. She was in a hurry to run away. Chu Yan hadn't given her the 10,000 taels of silver he promised to give her yet? She said why did she feel like someone owed her money.

"Chun Xia, go back and remind me to go to the Chu Mansion."

"Yes."

Qian Duoduo decided to go to the bookstore first. She wanted to visit the old man first. She hadn't been there for a long time. Since her novels were serialized normally, she asked Qiu Dong to deliver them on time every time she finished writing. But she had never been there once, let alone to see her old friend.

"Miss, that person seems to be Butler Zhou."

Qian Duoduo looked to the left and saw a man who looked like Zhou She turning into the alley next door. He walked hurriedly and there was no one around him. But Qian Duoduo and Chunxia were not mistaken, that man was Zhou She.

Although Qian Duoduo had no intention of prying into other people's private lives, Layue said that Qian Yi and Zhou She went out together. Now he only saw Zhou She, but not Qian Yi. Zhou She's footsteps were hurried, and Qian Duoduo suddenly remembered that Qian Yi was bullied last time he went out. Could it be this time too?

Just as Qian Duoduo was standing there with his mind wandering, Qian Yi appeared. But from the looks of him, he was secretly following Zhou She. Qian Duoduo didn't think about anything else and just followed him.

"go!"

The two men followed him into the alley next door and heard the sounds of punching and kicking.

Just when Qian Yi was about to step forward to argue with the other person, Qian Duoduo quickly covered his mouth and pulled him back.

Qian Yi was startled and turned around reflexively. Qian Duoduo put her index finger to her mouth, signaling him not to make a sound.

Qian Yi was relieved when he saw that it was Qian Duoduo. But he didn't understand why Qian Duoduo didn't go to save Zhou She immediately. He could only look at Qian Duoduo anxiously, and Qian Duoduo shook his head slightly. Qian Yi understood.

The three men hid in the corner, listening to the group of people inside beating and cursing Zhou She.

"You're screwed! You look so well dressed, but you say you have no money. What did you say when you borrowed the money? Now you want to default on the debt. Do you really think men are easy to bully?" After saying that, a group of people beat him to death again.

Zhou She didn't say anything to defend himself, but just held his head with his hands. He only knew that his face couldn't be hurt, otherwise Qian Yi would be worried if he saw it.

He didn't know what was going on. What he was worried about at this time was not what to do if he couldn't pay back the money, but what to do if Qian Yi got anxious because he hadn't been back for too long.

There was another sound of fists and kicks. Qian Yi couldn't stand it anymore. He turned around and looked at Qian Duoduo, his eyes full of anxiety. He was asking when he would help.

Qian Duoduo drew a "W" on the palm of his hand, and Qian Yi knew it meant "wait".

Qian Yi tried hard to open his eyes wide to prevent the tears from falling. At this moment, he did not have any calculating look on his face, but was a man with the word "worry" written all over his body.

"Boss, what should we do? This brat won't talk?" one of them said.

Although these people are not afraid of causing loss of life, their main purpose is still to get money. A life is not as important as money.

"Oh, you won't talk? Then we'll beat him so hard that he can't talk. You won't pay back? Then we'll use his new master as collateral. I've seen the fair-skinned and handsome young master next to him. Wow, he's really good-looking. Otherwise, you can bring your master over and let us have a taste of him. Then maybe he'll be happy and forgive your debt."

"Hahaha...hahaha..." Just as a group of hooligans were laughing there,

"court death!"

"court death!"

Qian Duoduo and Zhou She attacked almost at the same time. Qian Duoduo ran out and kicked the man who was talking, kicking him against the wall next to him.

The man bounced off the wall with a bang, spitting out blood. He couldn't speak clearly.

Seeing this, the others hurried to help their boss.

Zhou She was lying on the ground, and he immediately got up to beat the man, but he saw this scene.
