Chapter 121 Shameless Person

Mrs. Liu cried even harder, "Stop talking, kid. This is all my fault. Just blame me, okay?"

"Now that we've said everything we need to say, it doesn't matter who's right or wrong."

Zhang Juexia took a step and walked out.

Mrs. Liu burst into tears, "Child, don't you really want to listen to me?"

Zhang Juexia was speechless. "Just tell me, tell me now."

She sat down again and fiddled with the empty tea bowl in front of her.

Mrs. Liu wiped the tears from her face gracefully, took another sip of tea, and calmed herself down.

"I heard that the canned hawthorns sold at Manfu Restaurant were made by you, and the good cotton gloves sold at Yaoji Cloth Shop a while ago were also your idea."

"Mrs. Liu is quite nosy. You've even found out such confidential matters."

"Kid, doing business is not what you think. You haven't experienced the dangers of the world yet."

Zhang Juexia looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "Just say whatever you want to say. You've put so much thought into it, aren't you trying to remind me of the dangers of the martial world?"

"According to common sense, your mother and I are old friends, so we are also relatives. In the future, if there is such a good thing, can you cooperate with our Liu family? Or, you can sell the recipe for canned hawthorn to our family."

When Mrs. Liu said this, she saw that Zhang Juexia remained silent, so she continued, "My boss and I have been working in this town for many years, so we have some connections. If you sell the recipe to us, you will earn more than if you painstakingly make it yourself and then sell it."

"I wonder how much Mrs. Liu is willing to pay for my recipe?"

Mrs. Liu raised the corner of her mouth, a smile appearing on her face. "I told you, you're not the kind of child who doesn't know how to appreciate favors. You know who's close and who's far away. How about a hundred taels?"

Zhang Juexia had a sullen face and was unwilling to pay attention to Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu smiled awkwardly, "Don't be unhappy, kid!

I'll add another hundred taels, so it'll be two hundred taels!

Look around, who in our town would pay two hundred taels for your recipe?

This is what I think, if I buy your recipe, you don’t have to worry about anything else.

You can free up your time to think about other things, like gloves, and don't think about looking for Yao Tao anymore.

If you come to me for cooperation, I will make sure you don’t lose out!"

"How much can the loss be? You have to give an amount, right?"

"I'll give you 70% and you'll give me 30%. How's that? Isn't that sincere enough?"

"Mrs. Liu, you are truly well-planned. You are indeed the head of the Liu family. Unfortunately..."

In a rage, Zhang Juexia threw everything on the table to the ground.

The guys waiting outside immediately rushed up.

"Get out of here, and tell your boss how much money I'll pay you. I'm not the kind of person who's stingy and only knows how to take advantage of others."

Seeing that the talks had fallen through, Mrs. Liu stopped pretending.

She pointed at Zhang Juexia and asked, "Who are you calling a villain?"

"It's up to whoever agrees."

"I'm telling you, don't be ungrateful. Don't refuse a toast and then drink the wine for punishment. My master has everything he wants in this town."

"I want to see what your Liu family has in store. Since you're so powerful, just come at me. I just don't know if your Liu family can afford to offend the Li family."

Mrs. Liu's eyes widened in surprise. "What did you say? The Li family? What does the Li family have to do with this?"

"I gave the recipe for canned hawthorn to the Li family. They're much more generous than you."

Zhang Juexia looked at Mrs. Liu with contempt and turned away.

There was the sound of horse hooves outside, followed by hurried footsteps.

"Manager Wan, where is Miss Ye? I am Li Zhong, and I am here on the orders of my wife to invite Miss Ye to our house for a chat."

Manager Wan diligently led Li Zhong into the house, where they happened to meet the angry Zhang Juexia.

"Manager Wan, if you still want to make money from me in the future, just mind your own business."

After that, she took out a piece of silver and placed it on the table, "This is to compensate you for the tea bowl."

How could Wan Xi accept it? He wiped the sweat from his forehead tremblingly, picked up the change, and insisted that Zhang Juexia accept it.

Li Zhong coughed dryly at the side, "Manager Wan, you've made our guests angry. This is not right!"

"Miss Ye, since Shopkeeper Wan won't accept the money, that means he won't let you pay. Just keep the money! Our wife is still waiting for you in the mansion, don't make her anxious."

Zhang Juexia put away the silver and followed Li Zhong.

Li Zhong stopped the carriage about 200 meters away from Manfu Restaurant.

Zhang Juexia jumped off the carriage and said, "Butler Li, thank you very much. I wonder what the Madam wants to see me about?"

"Madam just heard that you were invited to the Manfu Restaurant, and asked me to come and help you with the event, but she didn't say she had anything to do with you."

Zhang Juexia understood. She happily took out a piece of silver from her pocket and handed it to Li Zhong sincerely, "Thank you for making this trip, Steward Li. It's a token of my respect."

Li Zhong accepted it without refusing.

"Butler Li, I won't be going to your house today. Please tell my wife that I will visit you another day.

Li Zhong bowed to Zhang Juexia and said, "I will definitely pass on Miss Ye's message."

After saying that, the man got on the carriage.

Zhang Juexia watched the carriage disappear, jumped on it, and prepared to go home.

On the way home, she thought about what Mrs. Liu had done and felt indignant.

There are such shameless people in the world.

She is still young and deserves a slap in the face.

Mrs. Liu looked at the mess in front of her and felt secretly resentful. If she had known this would happen, she would not have done it in the first place!

She sat there for about half a quarter of an hour before leaving the room.

Shopkeeper Wan came forward and said with a shameless face, "Mrs. Liu, look at this?"

Mrs. Liu pretended to ignore it and continued walking forward.

Shopkeeper Wan was a little embarrassed. "Mrs. Liu, you are a well-known figure in this town. It's not right to break someone's things and then just walk away like that!"

Mrs. Liu turned around and glared at Shopkeeper Wan. "I didn't break the things. Go find whoever broke it."

Shopkeeper Wan was furious. "Mrs. Liu, is that human language? If I hadn't found you, who would I have found?"

Besides, today, I offended Miss Ye while trying to help you. Do you know how serious this matter is?

Well, let me tell you this, if I don’t come to apologize, this matter will not be resolved.”

"That's your business, not mine."

Seeing that Mrs. Liu was unmoved, Shopkeeper Wan no longer cared about their own dignity. "Listen carefully, everyone! This man drank our tea, smashed our tea set, and refused to pay."

After hearing what Manager Wan said, the guys came forward and surrounded Mrs. Liu.

"Either pay the money or see the authorities, Mrs. Liu, it's your choice!"
