Just as Shen San went out to order food, Shopkeeper Yang sent someone to deliver a cloak made of brocade. This dress was just as Shopkeeper Yang said, as beautiful as the clouds in the sky, and Shen Yueqiao liked it very much.

She thought, if Lin Hongle wore this dress, wow, he would look so handsome!

This person, once she has something, wants to send it out quickly, so after Shen San came back, she sent Shen San to investigate twice again.

At noon, Shen Yueqiao's good mood was gone. She looked at the large amount of food sent by Zuixianlou. How much did it cost? The key point was that it was a waste! She and Lin Hongle would have to eat it for a week!

And Lin Hongle hasn’t woken up yet!

Forget it, she waved her hand and told everyone in the mansion to come to the banquet.

Afterwards, Shen Yueqiao was dumbfounded, she almost didn't eat enough of this huge meal, her belt was getting loose because these people knew to give in to her, Shen San, Shen Liu and An San ate in such an unscientific way!

The funniest one was Shen Liu. She was scratching her back with one hand, and putting food into her rice bowl with the other hand.

When the palace doctor saw this, he smiled disdainfully and said saltily: "If your skin is itchy, you can't eat these greasy foods anymore."

"It's okay, it's okay, it will be fine after a while!" Shen Liu's mind was fully on the food, and he said perfunctorily.

They used to go out with Shen Yueqiao for a good meal, but Shen Yueqiao hasn't been to Zuixianlou for nearly a month, and his mouth is almost dry. Can't he make up for it quickly?

However, Shen Liu was also careful for once. She saw that Shen Jian seemed a little uncomfortable, but it was not easy to take special care of him, so she had to pretend to move the dishes, but actually put a plate of braised pork closer to him.

After the meal, Shen Liu felt itchy not only on her back, but also in her stomach. An San kept staying away from her.

Although Shen San was puzzled, she knew that following An San was definitely the right thing to do!

"Doctor from the Palace, please take a look at me. Why am I getting more and more itchy?" Shen Liu couldn't stand it anymore. Doctor from the Palace was here, so it would be a waste not to use him. He didn't have to pay for it anyway.

"The consultation fee is two taels." The palace doctor said directly with a stern expression.

"Ah?" Shen Liu's face fell and he said, "You want more money!"

Afterwards, she looked at Shen Yueqiao with a flattering look on her face. Shen Yueqiao didn't look at her and went in with the bowl.

He had no choice but to go to Shen San with a sad face. Shen San, who was far away, spread his hands, indicating that he had no money.

She didn't want to pay, but her body was really itchy, so she took out two taels of silver from her pocket and handed it to the doctor in the palace as if cutting meat.

The doctor in the palace did not take it. He just threw a handkerchief over and said, "Put it inside the handkerchief."

"Oh." Shen Liu obediently wrapped the silver in a handkerchief and put it back in front of the palace doctor, smiling awkwardly, "Princess doctor, what's wrong with me?"

The doctor waved his hand and said, "Are you still itchy now?"

After hearing his question, Shen Liu suddenly realized that the strange itchy feeling had disappeared!

She was immediately happy, but also a little sorry for the money. However, she had already given it away and didn't dare to ask for it back. She felt so depressed!

At the end of noon, the human trafficker brought thirty men into the east house.

This time, Shen Yueqiao didn't keep anyone casually. She carefully interrogated these people's family backgrounds and deliberately selected some men who were slightly older, around 20 years old, to prevent any men from having any improper thoughts! Some of these men were sold by their wives, and some were originally slaves of aristocratic families. Ten people were left.

This time the names were chosen more casually. Shen Yueqiao pointed at these people and said one by one: "Shen Chu, Shen He, Shen Ri, Shen Dang, Shen Wu, Shen Khan, Shen Di, Shen Xia, Shen Tu and Shen Zhi."

You see, naming is so easy!

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, thinking that the name was too casual, but it was always good to be able to stay, so they quickly knelt down to express their gratitude.

"Shen Xia, Shen Tu and Shen Zhi, go and serve the master." Shen Yueqiao always felt that there were too few people serving Lin Hongle, and then said to Shen Wei: "You can arrange the others."

"Yes, Master!" Shen Wei took the order and took these people out.

As for matters such as selling one's body indenture, Shen San followed the human trafficker to register with the government.

The first time was when Shen Daer took Shen San and the human trafficker to handle it together, so Shen San also understood the process.

The human trafficker was naturally very happy to have made a deal. The most important thing was that Shen Yueqiao not only did not bargain every time, but also gave some tips.

Even though someone like Shen Hui happened last time, Shen Yueqiao didn't bother the human trafficker, but she was still worried for a while.

In fact, it’s not that Shen Yueqiao didn’t want to cause trouble. It’s mainly because she thought Shen Hui had the antidote, which was what she wanted to keep in the first place. Although human traffickers did conceal their identities, such things were not uncommon.

The most important thing is, it is better not to fall out with people of all kinds like human traffickers.

"Ms. Shen, you bought eighteen people these two times. I am grateful, so I will give you one extra person. Would you like to choose more?" Shen Yueqiao did not pursue the matter, but the human trafficker was very good at dealing with people, and she said with a charming smile.

"Oh?" Shen Yueqiao thought about it and shook her head. Since ancient times, cheap goods are not good. She said: "No, I still need to recruit a few guards. This matter is still entrusted to you. Just do this job well."

As soon as Shen Yueqiao finished speaking, he heard a "thump". It was Shen He, the servant who had just come to buy things. His droopy eyes opened wide, and his eyes were full of tears. He cried and begged: "Master, Master, I dare to ask you to save my poor wife and children."

After saying this, he kowtowed continuously.

Seeing this, the trafficker cursed: "Your wife sold you here, and you still beg Miss Shen to save her. Are you a cheapskate?"

"Speak!" Shen Yueqiao glanced at Ren Yazi, who immediately fell silent. She was afraid that Shen Yueqiao would go back on his word and quit Shen He, but now in the Shen family, naturally Shen Yueqiao should have the final say, and she had overstepped her authority.

"Master, please, it's not my wife who sold me, I asked her to sell me. My wife is injured at home, and I have no money. My children are starving to death. Only by selling me can I survive." He said while crying: "But the money won't last long. My wife is too seriously injured. Please."

After he finished telling the whole story, he kowtowed repeatedly.

Shen Yueqiao frowned. She would not be so kind now. Isn’t it enough that Shen Hui had done this before?

"You get up first." Seeing that his head was bleeding from knocking his head, Shen Yueqiao had no choice but to let him get up first.

Shen He just kept crying and begging, but no one heard him.

Shen Liu hated men crying the most. She walked up to him and said coldly, "The master of the house asked you to stand up. Do you dare not stand up?"

Shen He heard this and he knew he had to obey, so he stood up.

Shen Yueqiao ignored him and looked at Ren Yazi and said, "I'll trouble you to guard the courtyard."

"Okay!" Ren Yazi was afraid that Shen Yueqiao would go back on his word, so he nodded hurriedly.

After Shen San and the human tooth left, Shen Yueqiao frowned and ordered: "Shen Wei, except for the three people I just assigned to the master and Shen He, you take the others and make arrangements."

"Yes!" Shen Wei responded respectfully.
