C19 (2/2)

On the morning of the second day, the two of them rode together to look at the ground.

Putting everything aside, the hundred acres of land that Zhao Shiqian had bestowed upon her was not bad. Although it was located in the outskirts of the capital, the nearby streets were filled with merchants and citizens, it was still a good choice to establish a shop here.

After watching the entire morning, the two of them rested for a meal at an inn. An old man brought his daughter along to sing at noon.

Two or three men in noble clothing were sitting on a table beside him. At first, they were just teasing him, but later, they actually started using their skills.

How could Zhou Leping tolerate this kind of thing happening right under his nose? He wanted to slap the table and stick his head out for the girl on the spot.

Zhu Guanliang pressed her hand down, and advised her not to be impulsive, ”You can help her for now, but if these people start a fight to get revenge later on, it will harm the young lady.”

”Then we'll just watch idly?”

The girl was already crying for help, but those men didn't seem to be easy to deal with. The people below the stage might be afraid of getting into trouble, or they might not dare to, but none of them actually stood up to stop her.

Zhu Guanliang sipped his tea and spoke slowly, ”If it were any of the children of influential families in the capital, they would not have come so far to have fun. When we came earlier, there were a few carriages parked in the courtyard, and beside the carriages, there were also a few attendants. They should have come from somewhere else, and at this time, three to five people came to the capital.

Zhou Leping snorted, slapping the table and stood up, ”Stop!”

The few people who were pulling the girl to kick the old man stopped, and turned to look at Zhou Leping in unison.

The leading one, who was also the one who had the most fun, put down the finger that was pinching the girl's chin and pointed it at Zhou Leping.

The attendant who was waiting outside saw the sound and rushed over. The tactful customer had already left and the shopkeeper was about to start a fight. He wanted to stop them but was afraid of getting beaten up so he could only sigh gloomily.

Only Zhu Guanliang seemed like an outsider as he drank his tea and watched the show.
