Chapter 447 Invitation from the Metropolitan Government

Yesterday.

Several people in Chuci were called out to go shopping by the princess Yan Li.

When he came out of Wangyue Tower, Shi Liang stepped forward as usual and asked Chuci if he needed help.

Chu Ci rejected Shi Liang, and let Shi Liang rest today so that he could go home to take care of his younger sister.

Shi Liang’s home is in Commoner Lane in Xicheng District.

A narrow alley was packed with hundreds of people.

The people who live here are the people living at the bottom of Xiancheng.

The guard, the groom, the Ye Xiang Lang, the thieves, the orphans and the widows…

Brother and sister Shi Liang and Shi Yue have lived in this alley since they were young, struggling with food and clothing every day.

If it weren’t for Shi Liang to come out early to make money, I’m afraid the two brothers and sisters would have to rely on the charity of the neighbors to live.

When Shi Liang returned to Commoner Lane, he was surprised to find that the original noisy alley was strangely quiet.

Shi Liang’s heart jumped suddenly.

Did something happen? !

With an anxious look on Shi Liang’s face, he rushed into the alley.

When approaching the door of the house, Shi Liang suddenly stopped, and his expression was in a daze.

Because right at the door of Shi Liang’s house, the neighbors on the left and right surrounded him, all tiptoeing into the yard.

“younger sister!”

Shi Liang couldn’t help but exclaimed, pushing away the crowd and rushing into the yard.

“It’s a little stone!”

“Little Rock is back!”

“Everyone, get out of the way!”

The onlookers left and right neighbors saw Shi Liang, and they turned sideways and gave up a path leading to the gate.

Shi Liang ignored the thanks and hurried into the house.

Shi Liang didn’t see his sister in the cramped and broken courtyard.

Looking up at the window, through the opening of the window, Shi Liang saw that there was not only his sister but also one more person in his house!

“who is it?!”

Squeaky

Shi Liang picked up a wooden stick at the top of the door, pushed open the door and walked in.

Huh!

Shi Liang clasped the wooden stick tightly in both hands, and stood in front of Shi Yue.

“Who are you?!”

“What are you doing here?!”

Shi Liang stared at the middle-aged man in front of him tightly.

The man in brocade and silk robe is well-dressed and looks like a big shot.

It shouldn’t have any intersection with the people living in Commoner Lane, but now it appears in Shi Liang’s home.

“You are Shi Liang, right?”

The man looked at Shi Liang with a gentle smile, “Relax, I am not a bad person.”

Shi Liang’s hands holding the stick became harder.

“Who are you? What do you want to do when you come to my house?”

Seeing that Shi Liang was wary of himself, the man directly revealed his identity.

“I’m Sun Er, the housekeeper of the Metropolitan Government. I am here specially to welcome your brother and sister to the palace on the order of my wife.”

Shi Liang was taken aback when he heard the words.

Metropolitan Government? lady?

Shi Liang instantly remembered Mrs. Du Tong who had met at the underground auction on Cross Street.

She had indeed invited herself and her sister into the house to accompany Miss Dutongfu to play.

It’s just that Shi Liang thought that Mrs. Du Tong was just being polite, and didn’t think that the high-ranking big person would pay attention to the small role like himself.

However, Shi Liang did not expect to receive an invitation from the Metropolitan Government today!

“Master Shi.”

The housekeeper, Sun Er, looked at Shi Liang and said with a gentle smile, “You brothers and sisters, hurry up with me. The carriage is waiting outside.”

Shi Liang hesitated.

People from two different worlds shouldn’t have any intersection, but Shi Liang didn’t dare to directly reject the kindness of the Dutong Mansion.

“this···”

Shi Liang hesitated for a moment and said, “I need to ask my sister.”

The butler stretched out his hand and made a please gesture, motioning Shi Liang to ask.

Shi Liang put down the top wooden stick in his hand, and turned to look at his slightly confused sister, who was still not sober.

“Sister, do you want to go to the Metropolitan Government?”

When Shi Yue heard Shi Liang’s question, his head gradually became sober.

When the housekeeper, Sun Er, arrived, Shi Yue, who had not seen much of the world, was frightened.

Gudong!

Shi Yue swallowed and watched Shi Liang cautiously said, “Brother, I, I don’t know.”

“I listen to my brother!”

Shi Yue’s small hands gripped Shi Liang’s clothes tightly.

Sun Er on the side heard that the corners of his mouth turned slightly, and said aloud, “Master Shi, please leave with me?”

“Madam and Miss are still waiting for two at the house!”

Shi Yue had no idea, so Shi Liang couldn’t directly refuse Sun Er.

“Well, you wait for us for a while, let’s wash and go!”

“Okay, then I’ll wait for two people outside the door!”

Sun Er stepped away from the Shi family.

When he left the door, Sun Er’s eyes turned around on the onlookers.

“It’s all gone!”

With an order, the crowd of onlookers rushed out of sight.

The Xiancheng garrison is unified, that’s a big man second only to Xianwang!

Regardless of whether Sun Er’s intention is good or bad, the people living in Commoner Lane can’t afford to provoke the capital.

In the Shi’s house, Shi Liang carefully reminded Shi Yue what to pay attention to.

This trip is unknown, so please don’t provoke Madame Dutong and Miss Dutongfu.

“Sister, do you remember everything?”

“Well, brother, I know.”

Without letting Sun Erduo wait, Shi Liang took Shi Yue’s hand and walked out of the house.

“Steward Sun, let’s go!”

“Okay, please come with me!”

Sun Er took Shi Liang and Shi Yue, boarded the carriage and left Commoner Lane.

After a few people left, the surrounding neighborhood cautiously poked out their heads to observe.

“The lord of the Metropolitan Government is gone?”

“How can Little Stone have anything to do with the people in the Metropolitan Government?”

“Does the little stone provoke the capital?!”

“Then, isn’t that little stone brother and sister?

“Don’t talk nonsense! I think the people in the Metropolitan Government took away the little stones with a carriage. It must be a good thing!”

“Hi…Xiao Shitou has a relationship with the Dutong Mansion, so will we benefit from it?”

“That’s enough! How good is everyone to the little stone? The little stone will definitely repay us!”

The surrounding neighbors walked out of the house one after another and gathered together to discuss eagerly.
