After Her Divorce, She Escaped With A Strong Man To Farm
Chapter 57 - 57 I Won't Let Them Leave Jin City Alive57 I Won’t Let Them Leave Jin City Alive
The noble young man’s eyes were wide open. These two women were truly peerless beauties!
Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying did not notice this young master. Ji Xiaoying’s eyes could not take in all the colors after she entered the clothing store. She liked fresh colors, such as emerald green, pink, rose red, delicate yellow, and all kinds of bright colors. Ji Xiaoying was overwhelmed by the sight.
There were also two noble ladies choosing clothes in the shop. Based on the size of the shop, it seemed to be the kind of clothing shop that only sold high-quality goods, specially serving the young ladies and madams of rich families.
The shop owner saw that there were guests, and they were wearing the ready-to-wear clothes from his store. It seemed that they wanted to buy two more sets, so the boss hurriedly asked the waiter to serve them.
“This way, please. We have the latest dresses in our store. Both the style and color suit you very well.”
The waiter was honey-tongued and had a warm smile on his face as he invited Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying in.
The designs of the clothes inside were more avant garde than the ones outside. There were made of light muslin and satin, all of which were gorgeous fabrics. The embroidery on the clothes made them look more expensive.
“This yellow dress is very suitable for this young lady’s sweet temperament. You may try it on. It can be tailored to suit your size.”
The shop assistant picked out a yellow traditional dress from the shelf. The fabric was fine and light, and the embroidery was even more exquisite. A layer of light muslin covered the dress, giving it a fairy-like feeling.
Ji Xiaoying fell in love with it immediately, but she did not dare to touch the fabric. It was such a fine material that she would definitely get prickles if she touched it. She knew that she could not afford it and did not dare to try it on, but she really liked it so much that she could not take her eyes off the clothes.
“How much does it cost?” Su Qing asked the shop assistant coldly.
She wasn’t sure how much the clothes would sell for, and she wondered if the 500 taels of silver in her pocket were enough.
She asked for the price first, and if she did not have enough money, she would sell the kusk. As long as Xiaoying liked it, she would buy it for her, no matter how much it cost.
“It’s not expensive. It costs only 38 taels of silver.”
When the shop assistant saw Su Qing asking for the price, his smile became even more enthusiastic. He extended three fingers and gestured an eight again. He made 38 taels of silver sound like it was nothing to him.
“Ah? It’s so expensive?”
Ji Xiaoying was dumbfounded. 38 taels of silver was enough to cover her and her brother’s living expenses for a year. What clothes were those? How could they be sold at such a high price?
“Sister, let’s go. Let’s not watch anymore.”
Ji Xiaoying was scared out of her wits. She was afraid that the shop assistant would cling onto them if they stayed any longer, so she pulled Su Qing and left.
“Take care, young lady. If you really like this dress, I will gift it to you.”
A luxuriously dressed young nobleman walked in from outside and stopped Ji Xiaoying. His peach blossom shaped eyes narrowed as he stared at Xiaoying’s delicate little face.
“No need.”
Ji Xiaoying was frightened by his lecherous gaze. The boys she had met since she was young had always treated her honestly like an older brother, but she had never seen such a glib-tongued man. She did not want to say anything more to him, so she pulled Su Qing and wanted to walk past the man to leave the clothing store.
“Hey, don’t go? It’s fate that brought us together. It’s my honor that you like the clothes in my store.”
The man used his fan to block Ji Xiaoying’s path, and his smile became even more ambiguous as he looked at Su Qing.
This silent and cold-faced girl’s appearance was even better. Her eyes were intoxicatingly beautiful, like a rose with thorns, making people willing to bear the thorns and cut their hands to pick it home.
“Get lost,” she snapped.
Su Qing pulled Ji Xiaoying behind her and scolded the noble young man coldly. She then pressed his murderous aura down on the man.
“Psht… What a fierce girl, but I like that. You two sisters can be my concubines, I guarantee that you will live a life of luxury.”
Not only did the man not leave, he even opened his arms to stop them and spoke even more vulgarly. His eyes were like that of a pair of flies as he stared at Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying.
“You’re looking for death.”
Su Qing didn’t want to cause any trouble. After all, the Wan family Army had just left. If they were alerted and returned, it would cause unnecessary trouble. But this kid didn’t know what was good for him and wanted to mess with the emperor. Su Qing couldn’t bear it anymore and kicked him away. The man, who weighed more than a hundred pounds, slid in an arc and flew a few meters away. He crashed into the finished clothes rack, tore off the new dresses on the rack, and fell heavily to the ground.
The eldest young master, who had lived a luxurious life, had never been beaten before. Su Qing’s kick almost made him pass out. The waiter and the shopkeeper helped him up and patted his chest and back to calm him down.
“Young Master, Young Master, are you alright?”
The shopkeeper was scared out of his wits. Their young master was the only son of Guo Gang, the county Magistrate. He was like a treasure that was incredibly fragile. If anything happened to him in his shop, the old master would skin him alive.
Young Master Guo let out an “ah” and said while sobbing, “Ah that hurts so much.”
He had just said one sentence when his ribs hurt so much that his face turned pale. He gasped and pointed at Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying as he ordered his men, “Catch them and send them to the Jadeite Tower. I want them to suffer a fate worse than death.”
Su Qing kicked the greasy-haired young master away and pulled Ji Xiaoying out. However, just as she reached the door, she was blocked by the thugs that Young Master Guo had brought. The other party rolled up his sleeves and threatened them with his fangs and claws,
“You injured our young master and you still want to leave?”
Su Qing saw that there were only four thugs, and they were the kind that did not have any real ability and only knew how to use their power to bully others. She did not care about them at all and continued to pull Ji Xiaoying out.
Su Qing felt that Ji Xiaoying’s hands had turned cold from fear, and a fierce look appeared in her eyes. Did these dogs think she was a pushover just because she hadn’t taught them a lesson yet?
Su Qing’s heart was boiling with anger, and she was ready to start a massacre.
Since when could the God of War tolerate this? No matter who he was, she would kill him first. At all costs.
Just as Su Qing was about to kill them, the guards that Li Wu had sent to protect Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying pulled out their knives and rushed into the boutique. They shouted at Young Master Guo and the four thugs, “How dare you! Who dares to move?”
The four thugs were usually able to bully honest people, but when they saw the guards with steel knives and murderous intent, they immediately cowered.
“You guys… Who are you people?”
The innkeeper gathered his courage and asked. The noble young man had suffered such a big grievance today. If he didn’t even know who the other party was, their old master would definitely blame him.
The two guards were also from the capital and had an air of superiority. They did not take the people of this small border town seriously at all. They looked at the shopkeeper with disdain, “Who are you to ask?”
The shopkeeper choked and didn’t dare to speak. Based on his accent, he was from the capital. Given the sword he was carrying, he seemed to be a guard. He started to feel apprehensive. It looked like he was a guard of some important figure from the capital. No matter which big shots they were, he couldn’t afford to offend them.
Watching the guard and Su Qing leave, Young Master Guo couldn’t take it anymore and ordered the shopkeeper, “Let’s go and have a look. No matter who they are, I won’t let them leave Jin City alive.”
