Chapter 49: 49 Scoundrels

49 Scoundrels

The 20 roasted ducks were quickly snatched by the regular customers. Those who did not manage to snatch them all had a look of regret on their faces. “Little Lady, grill more tomorrow. This isn’t even enough.”

Jian Qingqing smiled. “Auntie, I’m sorry. My family’s grill can only roast 20 ducks at most. In the future, there will only be a supply of 20 ducks every day. You can also buy stewed meat. Stewed meat is also very delicious.”

Hearing this, all the guests present felt sorry. They also knew that stewed meat was delicious, but the roast duck also looked very delicious. It would be wonderful if they could take turns to buy it.

“Then can you accept a reservation? That way, I won’t have to fight over it tomorrow.” Someone thought of another idea.

“I’m sorry, reservation is not accepted.”

“Okay.” It seemed that she could only come earlier tomorrow to fight over it.

After selling the stewed meat, Jian Qingqing planned to go around the county town and buy some things for her family.

When she passed by the jewelry shop, Jian Qingqing thought that Mother Jian did not seem to have any jewelry. So, she wanted to buy something for her.

The jewelry shop in Shifeng County was not very big. The things inside were exquisite and plain. She liked a plain silver bracelet and a gold-plated hairpin. Now that she had a small fortune, she paid the money without hesitation.

When she left the jewelry shop, she felt that someone was staring at her. She looked left and right, but she did not see anything wrong. However, she trusted her intuition, so she turned around and walked in another direction.

She walked quickly to the middle of the crowd and took advantage of the crowd to turn into an alley. She hid behind the alley and carefully poked her head out to look.

Jian Qingqing’s guess was right. There were indeed people following her. They were three shifty-eyed men. When they saw that she had disappeared, they looked around in the crowd.

Who was it? Was it for money or something else?

Thinking that she would have to travel to the county town every day in the future, she could hide for a while but could not hide forever. Jian Qingqing decided not to let this hidden danger go. She took a deep breath and reappeared on the street. There were so many people on the street now, she bet that they would not dare to attack her openly.

As expected, when the group saw her appear on the street, they pretended that nothing had happened and followed her at a leisurely pace.

Jian Qingqing led them to the county office. The closer they got to the county office, the fewer people there were. In this era, ordinary people usually hid from the officials, so the three people following behind them were very prominent.

When she saw the official on duty standing in front of the county office, she suddenly ran over and shouted, “Help! The three people behind me want to harm me!”

The three people behind her jumped in fright and ran away.

The two officials on duty glanced at Jian Qingqing, hesitated for a moment, and then immediately chased after her, “Stop! Don’t run!”

Seeing the figure of the officers chasing after her, Jian Qingqing stood where she was and heaved a sigh of relief. She was originally afraid that the officers would ignore her, or that those people had colluded with the officials. Now, it seemed that there were still good officers.

Actually, Jian Qingqing was right to be worried. In the past, the two officers would not have bothered with her at all. However, now, there was a new County Magistrate. This County Magistrate’s methods were cruel. If they did not care and the new County Magistrate found out, losing their official position would be a light punishment, they might even lose their lives. So, they hesitated for a moment before chasing after them.

The two officials quickly pressed the three people down and brought them back to the Yamen.

“Don’t move around! Behave yourself!”

Jian Qingqing also followed them back to the Yamen. This was the first time she saw a real-life version of the Yamen, so she looked around curiously.

“Miss, wait a moment. We will go and ask the County Magistrate to judge the case right away.”

Jian Qingqing retracted her gaze. “Alright, thank you for your trouble.”

One of the officers handed the scoundrels to his colleague and went to the back.
