Yi Xin as a concubine

Chapter 271 "Do Something Good"

The old men became even more angry when they heard this. Yingzhou is such a small place and everything is purchased from other countries. This time, they have been besieged by Simon for so long that they cannot buy many supplies.

Every household has long been short of daily necessities such as charcoal and food, but these old men have a high status in the family, so naturally the good things are reserved for them. They have been staying in this teahouse for so long today, and they are also bored. However, due to the sake of face, no one said anything.

How could the old Confucian scholars, who only care about their face, bear having their face exposed so suddenly?

"If you're afraid of the cold, just stay in your boudoir and embroider. Why are you running around outside?" An old man in the corner sneered with a red face and thick neck.

"You are old, so don't be angry. My sister has a lot of important things to do. She is only taking the trouble to help Mr. Mo Xuan because he helped her before. If you don't agree to her conditions, our Xin family will naturally have other ways to repay this favor."

Xin Chengzhi couldn't stand it anymore. Why should they listen to a bunch of old guys scolding the baby that the Xin family held in their hands?

"Mr. Mo Xuan, my sister has traveled thousands of miles to make so many arrangements for the sake of the Mo Xuan family and at the request of Master Yifan. Since they don't appreciate it, we won't bother her any more. After we have a day's rest and my sister feels better, we will leave. But don't worry, we will deliver all the daily necessities to the Mo Xuan Mansion as soon as possible."

After saying that, he glared at the others angrily, then pulled Xin Baoer's sleeve and said, "Little Eighth Sister, let's go. Why should we endure the nonsense of these people who talk about morality but do nothing? I think they are used to being praised, so they don't care about the lives of the people below."

"Not only the servants, he probably doesn't care about the life and death of his own wife and daughter. He looks down on women so much. Could it be that they are all born out of cracks in the rocks?" Qin Chu interrupted Xin Chengzhi before he finished speaking, his words full of sarcasm.

Without waiting for the old men to jump up and beat people, Xin Baoer stood up, bowed, and said with a smile: "Since the position of crown prince is not needed, Baoer will not interfere. Yifan, I'm sorry, I'm afraid that what you entrusted to me will not be fulfilled."

"Sister-in-law, this..." Mo Xuan Yifan scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, looking like he didn't know which side to persuade.

"Fan, take your sister-in-law home and settle down. Your uncles are still strong and healthy, so it's okay for them to skip a few meals, but I, an old man, can't do that. I can't stand being hungry or freezing."

Mo Yuan, the great scholar, scanned the old brothers and finally landed on Xin Baoer. He said, "Little girl, I appreciate your kindness. Otherwise, if that kid finds out, he will make trouble with me. When I return, I will pack up all the younger nephews and apprentices in my family and send them to you. Don't let them live too comfortably. It would be good for them to have some experience."

After saying that, he looked at his old brothers again, and said in a helpless and sad tone: "Alas, since the old brothers all have their own plans, then I won't accompany you. I've been sick for a while, and my old bones can't stand the tossing and turning!"

After saying this, the great scholar Mo Xuan, with the help of the man in gray, stood up tremblingly, without even looking at anyone, and walked towards the door.

"Hey! Old man Mo Xuan, you..."

"I won't stay much longer, everyone. See you later...never!" Xin Baoer's smile was gentle and harmless, but the meaning of her words was very infuriating.

After the carriage left the teahouse, Xin Baoer said leisurely: "Add fuel to the fire. Some people always think they are the best in the world if they don't push them."

Wei Yu responded coldly, and cracked the whip hard, and the horse started running away with a "da da da" sound.

Xin Baoer and others were settled by Mo Xuan Yifan in a small courtyard with two entrances not far from Mo Xuan's mansion. The courtyard was very exquisite. It was the coming-of-age gift given to him by the old man when he just came of age.

"Sister-in-law, what are your plans next?" Mo Xuan Yifan instructed the servants in the courtyard to serve his distinguished guest well, and then he went into the main hall to ask, his attitude unconsciously flattering.

"Close the doors and windows at night and sleep well." Xin Baoer said with a smile.

"Okay! Then I won't disturb your rest. I'll come and bring you breakfast tomorrow." Mo Xuan Yifan responded tactfully and left like a gust of wind.

It was a dark and windy night, perfect for doing some "good things" that could not be done in public.

Early the next morning, Xin Baoer was half asleep when she heard Wei Yu and Zhao Xian talking outside.

"A group of old men are blocking the gate and making a lot of noise. I really don't know what they call decency!" Zhao Xian complained.

"Let them be, just don't disturb Baoer's rest." Wei Yu's voice was a little cold, and he was obviously angry.

"Well, let the Mo Xuan family worry about it themselves. But what happened last night?" He lowered his voice and leaned towards Wei Yu, asking mysteriously, "Did you do something big again?"

"If you're curious, then go ask Baoer yourself." Wei Yu said.

Zhao Xian curled his lips and muttered in dissatisfaction: "I don't want to know."

"What are you two doing guarding the door?" Xin Baoer opened the door and stuck her head out to ask.

In someone else's house, since he was awake, he would not stay in bed. After being asked, he did not listen to the answer, turned right and went back to the room, but did not close the door, which was obviously left open for the two of them.

"Where are my second brother and cousin?" Xin Baoer asked while getting dressed.

"I'm watching the fun at the door." Zhao Xian spoke quickly and walked over to help her hold up her clothes.

"Oh, now you know you're in a hurry. It seems Simon was holding back before." Xin Baoer joked meaningfully.

"How do we deal with those things?" Wei Yu asked with a snort of laughter.

"Let's get together with ours. After we leave, let Yu Si also experience the joy of making money." Xin Baoer said without thinking.

"Okay, the girls should be very interested." Wei Yu replied with a smile.

The girls under her used to complain that their masters were so good at making money but never taught them a lesson, even though they aspired to be the most versatile guards.

"What are you two talking about? I don't understand anything." Zhao Xian asked foolishly while combing Xin Baoer's hair skillfully.

"It's okay. I just did a good deed and helped those conservative guys to consume some supplies. As I said before, this guy will never feel pain unless the knife stabs himself." Xin Baoer looked left and right in the mirror, smiled with satisfaction, and gave Zhao Xian a thumbs up.

"You stole their food?" Zhao Xian covered his mouth and shouted in surprise.

Wei Yu and Xin Baoer nodded together and gave her a surprised look.

In order to achieve the goal, Xin Baoer used some harmless "little tricks" and felt no pressure in her heart. Instead, she felt more comfortable.

No matter what her original purpose was, she helped them in the end. She didn't expect them to be grateful, but at least they shouldn't speak ill of her and make people feel disgusted.

Xin Baoer packed up and waited for a while before she saw Mo Xuan Yifan carrying two large food boxes and walking into the yard in dishevelled clothes. Behind him were Qin Chu and Xin Chengzhi, who were still enjoying the show.

"These old guys are too difficult to deal with." Mo Xuan Yifan put down the lunch box and tugged at his clothes with lingering fear.

"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place! Ayu, come and have dinner." Xin Baoer sat down and helped Zhao Xian distribute the food, sighing leisurely.

"What should we do next?" Mo Xuan Yifan had no mind to eat. His door was blocked and his old man had just recovered from an illness, so he couldn't sleep well.

"almost."

Xin Baoer was not joking when she said this. Just after they finished their meal, there was a noisy sound at the door.

"Here I come." Xin Baoer smiled with curved eyebrows, like a little fox who had stolen some meat.

"Ayu, let them in!" He wiped his mouth, motioned Zhao Xian to take away the food, and then gave the order.

As soon as the door opened, a group of people rushed in, rushing one after another. Even though she had prepared herself mentally, she was still startled.

When they ran outside the main room, they felt that there were several pairs of eyes watching them. They belatedly began to pay attention to their image, pulling this and that, and straightening their backs, as if by doing so they would not be seen as coming to beg for help.

"Gentlemen, what brings you here so early in the morning?" Xin Baoer asked knowingly, but before anyone could answer, she added leisurely, "Could it be that you didn't scold me enough yesterday, so you came to my house today?"
