Early the next morning, a government officer called Pei Shu'er over. Seeing the officers unloading horse carts, Pei Shu'er knew they were going out to procure supplies today.
Lu Qing said, "Pei Shu'er, you're strong. Join us in procuring supplies today."
Pei Shu'er nodded with a smile and slipped ten taels of silver into Lu Qing's hand.
Lu Qing had a handsome and upright appearance, the type that was evidently incorruptible at first glance.
Yet he also knew that too much purity leaves no room for pragmatism. If he didn't accept, it would imply that those who did were not reasonable people.
So he did not refuse and accepted the money.
There were three government officers accompanying everyone, and Pei Shu'er had never interacted with them. At this moment, she smiled and nodded at them.
She looked at those accompanying her.
Lin Yu, herself, and a stranger with a dark face, along with a chubby man.
