Stunning elegance

Bai Shao walked out of the Lu residence with the envelope Shan Xuemei gave her.

There were some beggars with scarred faces sitting on both sides of the street, their long hair was hanging down their faces, and their bony bodies were covered with ash visible to the naked eye.It was already late autumn, and most of the pedestrians on the road were wearing long-sleeved dresses.Those beggars lying on the street are still dressed poorly.

Bai Shao couldn't find anyone to deliver the letter for a while, so Bai Shao was a little anxious.Standing under the towering bluestone brick wall, she turned around and saw a group of people sitting in rows under the wall.

With a plan in mind, Bai Shao stepped forward with her skirt up.To the farthest beggar, he said, "Master, can you do something for me?"

The person being questioned didn't raise his head, but just squinted at Bai Shao.Then he turned around and found a comfortable position and fell asleep again.

Among so many beggars, the reason why Bai Shao was able to take a fancy to this man at a glance was that besides the fact that he was lying far away from those people, another important reason was that she saw that this man was a little withdrawn. If something goes wrong, it will not attract the attention of others.

Seeing that the beggar ignored him, Bai Shao was not annoyed, changed direction and squatted down again.He took out a string of copper coins from his purse.He shook the red rope tied with copper coins, making a series of crisp sounds.

Sure enough, as soon as the long-lost copper coin sounded, all the beggars around turned their heads to look at this side.The old beggar was certainly no exception.

Although this string of copper coins is nothing more than tea money for ordinary people, or it is not as much as a reward from a wealthy family.But for these beggars who eat and sleep all day long, it is a huge sum of money.

Seeing the eyes of the people around, Bai Shao put the string of money in the old beggar's arms.

"Master, it doesn't matter if you don't help, I will treat you to tea with this money." Bai Shao smiled, she was already pretty, even among Shan Xuemei's maidservants, she was considered the middle class posture.When she smiled like this, all the beggars lying at the base of the city wall were dazzled.

The old beggar looked at the charmingly smiling Bai Shao through the gaps in the clumps of white hair drooping in front of his eyes.He looked down at the string of copper coins on his chest again.Sighing, "You little girl has a lot of thoughts."

If he doesn't agree, with his unsociable character here, I'm afraid these people will grab the money without waiting for this girl to leave.If he didn't get any money, he might even get beaten up.

Bai Shao smiled, "This is just a bounty, if you agree, the money in the future will naturally be yours."

The old beggar is naturally very happy to be able to escape from this kind of life of sleeping on the streets.It's just that he looked at Bai Shao warily, afraid that she would let him do the task of licking blood with the tip of a knife.Then he is not willing, even if there is more money, so what?It is true to have a flower of life.

The time he has been lying under this city wall is not short, so it is not uncommon for him to encounter such things like pie in the sky.Some time ago, a middle-aged man also came here to find a person to do something, and that person was lying beside him.Before leaving, he said that after success, there will be endless glory and wealth.

As a result, no one saw him after it was done.Another month later, people found his body floating on the water in a river outside the capital.

So in the future, if someone comes to find someone to do something, even if it is a reward for Jinshan Yinshan, he will never participate.

But this time he saw that it was a woman who came, and seeing that she couldn't lift her shoulders and resist, she was nothing more than a maid from some family.Even if he came to find someone to do something, he couldn't escape the trivial matters in the inner house, so he restrained himself and listened.

"My little old man's ugly words come first," he coughed, coughing up a mouthful of ten thousand-year-old phlegm from what seemed to be his throat, and spat it on the ground with a "slap".He continued: "If what I do is something shameful, I will not do it even if I pay more."

Seeing the mouthful of yellow phlegm spit at her feet, Bai Shao quickly covered up the disgust in her eyes.The smile was still full of spring breeze: "Of course, I just trouble you to send a letter."

"Send the letter?" The old beggar glanced at her, and picked up a wooden stick he was leaning against the wall.Leaning on the ground, he stood up.

"Girl, it's good that you lead the way." The old beggar walked step by step.

"You're not dead, you're walking quite fast." Bai Shao cursed secretly in her heart, but said with a smile on her face: "If you don't go now, how can you deliver a letter in your body? You have to find a hotel to pack it for you first. Only clean."

Hearing that you can take a bath for nothing, how can you not agree to such a good thing.In an instant, the old beggar agreed.

Bai Shao took the beggar into an ordinary hotel.Opened an ordinary private room, went in and asked Xiaoer to prepare hot water for bathing.

The shopkeeper saw a beggar coming in, with a look of reluctance.The sour smell of this beggar's body, I'm afraid I don't know how many times I have to wash it to see the original appearance.Besides, I don't know if the beggar has an infectious disease or not. Although their small hotel doesn't make much money, they can still make ends meet.

A piece of broken silver was placed in front of him.The embarrassment on the shopkeeper's face disappeared in an instant, and he hurriedly said with a smile on his face: "Xiaoer, an ordinary single room. Prepare hot water for the guest to bathe."

A young man wearing a white turban came in nodding and bowing: "Please—"

Bai Shao threw the sign to Xiaoer and said, "Just wait for this old man to take a bath, buy him a suit of clothes, and prepare a full meal."

"Don't worry about the little one." Xiao Er took the old beggar upstairs.

Bai Shao waited downstairs for about an hour, and the old beggar came down.At this time, after he washed himself clean, he wore a soap-colored long gown, and the messy bun was also freshly washed and tied firmly on top of his head.

Looking at him like this, he is only about fifty or so, not as old as when he first met him.That's okay, this really looks like an ordinary messenger.

The old beggar had enough to eat and drink, and with a toothpick in his mouth, he walked down in a hurry.

"Grandpa, you are full of wine and food. It's time to do things." He said and took out a certain amount of money from his arms.

The old beggar's eyes were shining, and he was about to take it.Bai Shao suddenly put away the money and said with a smile: "After the matter is done, the money will naturally not be missing from you."

As he said that, Bai Shao took out the sealed letter from his sleeve, and said: "You only need to send this letter to Miss Lu in Taiwei's Mansion. Remember that it must be handed by Miss Lu herself." Just get it."

The old beggar smiled and accepted the envelope handed over by Bai Shao: "Okay, I will definitely deliver it to you. After the matter is completed, the money can be given to me"

"That's natural, as long as you do things well, the money will naturally not be lost to you." Bai Shao got up and left the seat.

As the night gradually darkened, the old beggar came to Taiwei's Mansion with an envelope in his arms.The steward who happened to come out to get the envelope was seen by the old beggar.

The old beggar naturally knew what the steward was doing, so he hurried forward and said, "Brother, are you in charge of the letters from the Taiwei's Mansion?"

The butler said defensively, "What are you doing?"

"Don't worry, big brother, I'm here to deliver the letter." The old beggar looked honest and honest.

After hearing this, the defensive look on the butler's face disappeared a little. "Who are you sending this letter to?"

"This letter is for Miss Lu." The old beggar said.

"Then it's a coincidence for you. I'm in charge of sending and receiving letters. I just happen to deliver them to the eldest lady's yard." The housekeeper stretched out his hand, implying that the old beggar would bring the letters.

The old beggar reached out his hand to dig in his bosom, and handed the letter over.Seeing the housekeeper took a look at the letter, he put the envelope and the letter in his hand together, turned around and was about to leave.

"You must deliver it to Miss Lu." The old beggar ordered worriedly.

The butler opened the door and walked in. Hearing what the messenger said, he couldn't help but smiled: "Okay, I understand, you can go now."

After closing the door, the butler delivered the envelopes one by one to where they should go.Especially the letter that the old beggar Qian Ding Wan Wan asked was sent to Tingzhuyuan.

The little maid in the yard took the letter and went to the back room.Met Lan Xiang: "Sister Lan Xiang, this is a letter from Miss."
