However, considering that Peng Lei was indeed the one who put a lot of effort into it, if he was pulled out because of such a small piece of information, it would indeed be a bit of a loss.
So after thinking for a while, Zhu Yuewu just waved his hand and said, "Okay, I understand, you can go down."
When Peng Lei saw that Zhu Yuewu finally stopped hinting at him, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After Peng Lei left, Zhu Yuewu immediately called the attendants around him and said, "Help me ask the steward why Jixiang left."
After hearing Zhu Yuewu's words, the attendants around him just nodded and said yes.
Then the attendant hurried down, and the attendant quickly brought relevant information to Zhu Yuewu.
"Master, I just asked them. They said that Jixiang's departure was not registered by her in person. They said that Jixiang had been gone for a while, and Zhu Zanxi just arranged for someone to come over and inform everyone. He said that Ji Xiang was released because his mother was seriously ill."
Hearing this, Zhu Yuewu felt even more strange. Why should a maid who had signed a contract of prostitution be released because of her serious illness?
Zhu Zanxun's words were obviously just an excuse, but now that he had a direction, Zhu Yuewu was naturally unwilling to miss this direction.
So he then only said to the people around him, "Where does the Jixiang family live? Find it out for me quickly. I want to go and see it myself."
Zhu Yuewu's thinking was simple. As long as Jixiang really returned to his home, he could detain him with any excuse he could find.
When the time comes, he will be tortured and served, and he thinks he can always hear some news.
And his men were very cooperative with Zhu Yuewu's requirements. After they heard Zhu Yuewu's words, they immediately asked the housekeeper where the Jixiang family's address was.
After asking these questions, they immediately arranged a carriage, and then they led Zhu Yuewu directly to Jixiang's home.
Jixiang's home lives in Yunyong Lane, where all you can see at a glance are low and dilapidated thatched houses and a dark, dirty and smelly street environment.
Zhu Yuewu actually has some memories of this kind of place. During the most difficult times, he and his mother also stayed in this kind of place.
Zhu Yuewu couldn't help but frown when he thought of those unpleasant experiences in the past.
It's been so many years, why am I still thinking about this?
Anyway, this kind of shabby place is just a place he occasionally passes through. He will never be able to, let alone want to, return here.
Dressed in rich clothes, he walked indifferently through the dark streets. People on the streets looked blankly at the young man who seemed to have come from another world. Everything he represented was so bright and beautiful, and people seemed to be able to see from his gorgeousness. From his clothes, he could see the glory and wealth behind him.
The children didn't have so many thoughts. As soon as they saw this glamorous person, they immediately gathered around him and said auspicious words to Zhu Yuewu. For a moment, they seemed to want to exchange something in this way. .z.br>
However, Zhu Yuewu only felt that these little devils were very annoying.
It happened that a kid was almost in front of his eyes. The kid held a few dirty and broken dolls and said to Zhu Yue, "Master, buy one of my dolls. My dolls are very cheap. You can take home ten copper coins."
"Master, buy one, buy one."
Seeing the dirty kid approaching, the dirty smell on his body almost made Zhu Yuewu feel sick and want to vomit.
It happened that the child was trying to grab Zhu Yuewu's sleeve with his dirty little hands.
Therefore, Zhu Yuewu, who was extremely annoyed, just pushed the child down with one blow.
The child was immediately pushed down by Zhu Yuewu before he could react.
After the child was pushed down, he immediately started crying.
Although Zhu Yuewu felt annoyed, he had no feelings for this kind of brat.
Don't want those original
The adults who were watching Zhu Yuewu suddenly stood up, and they all walked towards Zhu Yuewu's direction.
The children who were originally surrounding them dispersed after the adults came over.
At that time, one of the men only helped the little boy who was still crying, and he only brought the little boy to Zhu Yuewu.
As soon as he saw this situation, Zhu Yuewu felt that the situation was not good.
However, before he could react, the adults immediately surrounded Zhu Yuewu like iron barrels.
Although Zhu Yuewu and the people around Zhu Yuewu have never looked down on these poor people.
But at the moment, there are only a few of them, but there are more than a dozen poor people surrounding them. If they are surrounded like this, they will obviously not have the upper hand in a fight.
Therefore, the followers around Zhu Yuewu immediately said, "What do you want to do?"
After hearing the words of the entourage, one of the lean men just looked at Zhu Yuewu expressionlessly. For some reason, this man obviously didn't look as tall as him, but his aura obviously overwhelmed him. The man only looked directly at Zhu Yuewu. He looked at Zhu Yuewu, and he only told Zhu Yuewu expressionlessly, "Apologise! Apologize to this child in person! It was you who pushed him just now."
Hearing the man's words, Zhu Yuewu couldn't help but sneered, apologizing to a poor man or a yellow-haired boy? Over the years, he had caused so many families to be broken up and killed. When had he ever apologized to those people? Now, he just slapped the kid and they wanted him to apologize. All of this was too ridiculous.
However, although he didn't bother to apologize, Zhu Yuewu didn't want to make the matter bigger. He didn't think that these poor people really wanted him to apologize. The reason why they were like this was probably just to find an excuse to ask for money.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuewu just said with disdain, "Don't you just want money? Okay, I'll just give you the money."
After saying this, Zhu Yuewu only said to the attendants around him, "Since these poor ghosts want money, just take the money and throw it to them. It will be a good deed."
After hearing Zhu Yuewu's words, the attendant immediately grabbed a handful of copper coins from his purse.
However, after he took out the copper plate, he did not directly give the copper plate to the children. What he did was to throw the copper plate directly to the ground of the group of adults surrounding them.
After he threw a handful, he did not forget to taunt the adult, "Take the money and buy a meal."
What they said was undoubtedly a mockery to an adult. The leader's face was ashen, and naturally he was even less likely to give way to them.
On the contrary, when the children who were originally making birds and beasts saw the copper plates on the ground, they immediately wanted to run back and pick up the copper plates on the ground.
However, when they had just gotten in and were about to pick up the copper plate.
The adult suddenly spoke, and he said expressionlessly to the children who were busy picking up the money, "Throw them all away!"
Obviously the other party didn't say anything more extreme, but the group of children seemed to have received a lesson. They just threw the copper coins that were thrown on the ground back to the ground.
Even Zhu Yue Wudang said unhappily, "What? Do you think you don't have enough money? Do you want some more?"
The attendants around him immediately imitated Zhu Yuewu's disdainful tone and said, "I didn't expect a group of poor people to be quite greedy. Isn't this amount of money enough to compensate?"
After saying this, the man just threw a handful of coins on the ground.
Then Zhu Yuewu just said to the other party, "It should be enough now, right?"
After saying this, Zhu Yuewu even tried to push the other person away, but unexpectedly, the young man remained motionless at this moment.
Zhu Yuewu said dissatisfiedly, "Get out of my way!"
However, the man was very insistent. He stood in front of Zhu Yuewu and just said, "Apologise to me, apologize to this child, otherwise I won't let you go!"
After hearing the man's words, Zhu Yuewu suddenly understood the man's thinking logic.
He really wanted to apologize to this child.
I didn't expect that in such a poor place, there would actually be poor people who really valued face more than money.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuewu couldn't help but laugh out loud, but he didn't think what this kid was doing was very smart at all.
He even thought the other party was a fool.
He didn't even have food to eat, yet he still wanted to be respected by others.
But does he deserve this kind of respect?
Seeing Zhu Yuewu's sneer, the young man said coldly, "Why are you laughing?"
Zhu Yuewu just said, "Nothing."
Then he said again, "If I apologize to this child, will you let me go?"
Upon hearing Zhu Yuewu's inquiry, the young man nodded.
Zhu Yuewu then said nonchalantly, "Okay, since you said so, I'll just apologize."
He doesn't care about apologizing to people. To be honest, among the things he has caused in the past, no one has ever solved the problem in such an easy way as him.
Isn't it just an apology? It's not like he has no mouth. When he thought of this, Zhu Yuewu couldn't help but said "I'm sorry" without any sincerity.
However, this man seemed to have no requirements, but in fact he was not easy to get rid of. He felt very dissatisfied when he saw Zhu Yuewu acting carelessly, without even seeing the child's light apology.
Zhu Yuewu didn't know what the other person was thinking. He just looked at Zhu Yuewu after saying sorry, "Okay, now that I'm sorry, can you let me go?"
However, the man said resolutely, "No!"
When Zhu Yuewu heard this, he immediately said, "I apologized, why can't I do it? Don't you even mean what you say?"
After hearing Zhu Yuewu's words, the young man immediately said, "I want you to look at the child and apologize sincerely. Your apology just now is nothing!"
Zhu Yuewu didn't feel that he had done anything just now, he just felt that the other party was looking for trouble with him.
Therefore, he was very unhappy at the moment and said, "I think you are deliberately looking for trouble!"
