Before the house is confiscated, the enemy's warehouse is emptied and exiled

Faced with the sudden approach of the officer, Shen Qingge became alert instinctively.

However, she still planned to deal with it calmly and see what he was up to.

She took two shallow steps back, keeping a proper distance from Li Tian, ​​with a smile on her face. "Thank you for your concern, sir. I'm quite used to your care now!"

These were all distant and polite words. Li Si couldn't help but pause, not knowing how to continue.

He glanced at me cunningly and then said:

"What are you talking about, Madam Shen? There's no such thing as taking care of each other! Although I'm just a minor official now, you're a commoner. Life in exile is hard, so we should always take care of each other!"

After saying that, he laughed again, showing his big yellow teeth, and he didn't look like a violent official at all.

"Oh, you're really pretending. Stop wasting time and just tell me what you want to do!"

Shen Qingge thought to herself, but still smiled at him.

Seeing that Li Tian didn't continue speaking, she nodded to him and prepared to leave.

As a result, the next moment, Li Tian followed her directly to the Shen family's resting place and started chatting with his grandmother.

"Mrs. Shen, have you been okay these past two days? It's hard for you to walk such a long distance at your age."

Li Tian's tone was so sincere that his grandmother looked at him with gratitude.

Seeing this, Li Tian struck while the iron was hot and said, "Hey... I have great respect for General Shen. He is a first-class hero of our Beiling Kingdom. Your Shen family is also full of loyal and righteous people, but I never thought you would end up like this!"

As he spoke, his eyes revealed regret and heartache.

Hearing these words, my grandmother's eyes gradually turned red, and tears welled up in her eyes. She said in a trembling voice: "Could it be that the adults also think that our Shen family is wronged?"

Li Tian nodded slightly in agreement and was about to say something else.

At this moment, Shen Qingge suddenly interrupted and said seriously, "Sir, this order of exile and confiscation of property was issued by the Emperor. The evidence is irrefutable. Please do not speak nonsense, or you will be charged with the crime of slander!"

She knew perfectly well that the evidence was irrefutable; it was simply a case of "finding a pretext to accuse someone." But now, they were lowly exiles. If these words were heard by someone with ulterior motives, wouldn't they be given leverage to take advantage of the Shen family? She wondered if Li Si was deliberately trying to trick them, or if he was trying to leave the Shen family isolated and helpless.

As Shen Qingge thought about this, she glanced at the Zhao and Wu families next to her. The way they looked at the Shen family seemed to be filled with poison.

Seeing that Li Tian was a little embarrassed, she smiled and said humbly:

"Of course, we all know that you have good intentions. You are a good official who cares about us. We must not let you bring trouble to us and affect your career."

Shen Qingge also spoke in a high-sounding manner, giving Li Tian a way out and leaving him with no way to refute.

The sisters-in-law around were naturally aware that the official Li Tian's behavior was quite strange, but they did not dare to offend him, so they could only respectfully agree with Shen Qingge's meaning, "Yes, yes."

At this time, the grandmother also reacted and looked at Li Tian with a much more distant look.

How could Li Tian know that the Shen family was so vigilant, but he still did not give up and threw out a very tempting bait.

"Didn't we say earlier that after arriving at Tianfu Post Station, Brother Gui asked our officers to select two people to go with them to the county town to make purchases. I saw that Miss Shen was quite skilled, so I thought of letting her go."

When he said this, his voice was extremely low, as if he had some shameful dealings with the Shen family. After he finished speaking, he did not forget to check the reaction of the Shen family, and a trace of calculation flashed in his eyes.

Sure enough, when the Shen family heard that they could go out to the streets to buy things, they could hardly contain their joy.

Fourth sister-in-law Jiang Yue even took Shen Qingge's arm and whispered, "Little sister, I never thought such a good thing would happen to us!"

Shen Qingge leaned close to Fourth Sister-in-law's ear and warned, "Don't be too happy, be careful of fraud!"

The fourth sister-in-law was so shocked that she immediately shut her mouth.

Li Tian's words were definitely a huge temptation for these fugitives! After all, if you miss this opportunity, you won't be able to get it again.

If there was a chance to let them buy some handy and practical items, it would definitely make their exile much more convenient.

Unfortunately, Shen Qingge had everything she needed, so she wasn't really interested in this market. But since the official had already said so, she might as well take this opportunity to legitimately take something out of her space. So, she was happy to wade into this mess and see what Li Si wanted!

So, she pretended to smile exaggeratedly and said, "Really? Thank you very much, sir. I will definitely remember to honor you when the time comes!"

After hearing this, Li Tian couldn't hide the satisfied expression on his face.

He received instructions from Brother Gui, which was to, on the one hand, integrate with the women and children of the Shen family at all costs, and on the other hand, to leave these women of the Shen family isolated and helpless.

The reason was simple: a group of women, dragging along several half-grown children, were already having a very difficult time on the road of exile. Furthermore, they were being ostracized by several other families, so they had no choice but to seek help from the officials. If the officials could find a way around it, they would just say whatever they wanted and let them manipulate them!

The abacus beads are jingling so loudly that they are about to hit people's faces!

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Li Si stopped pestering her, but he still wanted to put on a complete show. He bowed and left.

As soon as Li Tian left, he was exiled to a group of prisoners, and the sound of ridicule and sarcasm could be heard everywhere.

Wu Shenghao, the third son of the Wu family, said bluntly, "They say the Shen family is a family of generals, and their family tradition is upright. I don't know where these women learned these seductive tricks. They've been flirting with the police officers in just two days. It's really shameful to watch..."

"Who says it's not? It's just imitating the styles of those brothels!"

"Oh, don't talk about them like that. We are a group of women. We should always think about how to survive!"

"I don't want anything the Shen family brought back. I'm afraid my hands will get dirty and I might get a strange disease like bayberry sore!"

The person who said this was Wu Yujie, the younger sister of the Wu family. She looked like a woman still in the boudoir. She deliberately raised her voice very high, and after she finished speaking, she did not forget to use a contemptuous look to provoke Shen Qingge.

The Shen family, listening to the abuse from the people around them, were at a loss for a moment.

Grandmother lowered her head in silence, and second sister-in-law Ye Yurou blushed and looked at Shen Qingge helplessly.

Shen Qingge, however, showed no fear at all. She curled her lips and smiled, "Sister Wu, huh? You seem younger than me, so I'll call you sister. I never knew that a young lady from an official family, waiting to be married, could understand the illnesses of prostitutes so well? The Wu family's tradition is truly upright!"

"you……"

This one sentence made Wu Sheng, the third son of the Wu family, so choked that he blew his beard and glared.
