Chapter 204
Boss Shen and Liu Suniang actually have no grudges against each other.
They were not very familiar with each other, but Liu Suniang had an inexplicable hostility towards Boss Shen.
In the past, Boss Shen didn't take her hostility seriously, until Liu Suniang danced in front of Boss Shen with her hostility, and then she had to take it seriously.
According to Boss Shen, she was jealous.
Thinking back to the past, when they were still children, they used to play together.
But not long after, Liu Suniang refused to pay attention to her and had no time to pay attention to her.
She was busy working all day, looking after the store, cooking for her father and brother, and taking care of her younger brother.
As for Boss Shen, it was very difficult for her to read and write, and she would feel sleepy. Her favorite thing was to run around and play everywhere. She also loved to go out with her parents to visit friends.
Her parents didn't restrict her and taught her everything slowly. If she liked to go out, she could go. They would let a maid or a servant follow her.
Everyone in the town knows each other, and children rarely get lost outside, so I feel relieved.
There is no need to go into detail about how happy she was as a child.
"Anyway... if I were Liu Suniang, I'd be jealous too," Boss Shen said. "When I was little, I wasn't very sensible. I always said things that seemed so natural. Maybe the happiness I showed hurt her, so she started to hate me. Whenever she saw me, her nose wasn't a nose, and her eyes weren't eyes."
Tian Bajiao felt...that this was not impossible.
She really disliked people like Boss Shen, but...
"There's no need to pursue it relentlessly, right? Besides, that happened a long time ago."
Boss Shen has lost her parents now, but she still lives so happily, which is indeed a bit hateful.
Tian Bajiao thought rather darkly.
Boss Shen sighed and said, "Who knows what people like her are thinking? Maybe they are petty and vindictive."
Tian Bajiao: ...
You say it as if that's a bad thing.
Isn't being petty considered thoughtful?
Isn’t holding grudges considered a good memory?
These are two advantages too. Are you allowed to live a good life but others are not allowed to have strengths?
You also need eyes that can discover beauty!
If this continues, I really want to find another Boss Shen. Be careful next time, I’m telling you!
Tian Bajiao looked at the back of the head of this person who was ignorant of the sufferings of the world with deep resentment, and asked without any emotion:
"So what should we do? Reconcile with her?"
"Alas," Boss Shen sighed, "It's too late to reconcile now. Besides, colleagues are enemies. Even if we show up to her with a smile on our faces, she'll think we're a weasel paying New Year's greeting to a chicken, with bad intentions. The same goes for the other way around. All we can do is be extremely careful, never trust a word she says, and always be on our guard, Bajiao!"
She stood up, grasped Tian Bajiao's shoulders, shook them vigorously, and said solemnly, "You must remember every face next door. If they take a step towards this side, call me immediately. Do you understand? You are still young and don't know how jealous people are. She wants more than just money. She also wants to destroy me!"
Tian Bajiao: ...I want to too.
There's still something wrong with Boss Shen. Her words weren't so offensive before.
And you want to destroy her? What's there to destroy about her?
In the morning, Boss Shen confidently said that the other party was jealous, but in the afternoon, when he saw the money tree made of copper coins in someone else's store, she became the one who was jealous.
"With so much money lying out there, it would be a disaster if it didn't attract thieves."
She said it sourly with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.
Liu Suniang, who had followed stealthily, immediately shouted, "We're rich, so we're not afraid of theft. Unlike Boss Shen, you've almost taken out all the bones and flesh of these few saplings, small potted plants, small flowers and grasses, right? You must take good care of them. If they're accidentally blown by the wind and rain, they'll all break. Wouldn't you be heartbroken?"
Boss Shen's face turned red with anger: "Liu Suniang, if you dare to touch them, I will fight you to the death! Fight you to the death!"
If Tian Bajiao hadn't held her quickly, she would have rushed forward.
"It's not worth it, it's not worth it. If you break it, you have to pay for it."
She was trying to remind Boss Shen, but Liu Suniang's eyes lit up and she quickly took two steps forward.
"Don't stop her. Tell her to hit you, the harder the better. It doesn't matter if you don't have money. Even better, just give me this shop as compensation. Then I'll break through the wall and sell half of it for perfume and the other half for rouge and powder. I'm sure I'll make a lot of money!"
"It's so beautiful that your nose is bubbling! If you don't lose money doing business like this, I will write the word "sink" upside down."
"Why change it upside down? Just change it with me. You're embarrassing Uncle Shen and the others anyway. You might as well change your surname to Liu. You can also get some family members for free."
Isn't it too obvious that this statement is about wanting to replace someone else?
Boss Shen was dumbfounded and said, "Why didn't you say you got some of the family property for free?"
"If you have the ability, it's not impossible," Liu Suniang said nonchalantly, "It won't cost me money anyway. I'm just worried that if you don't have the ability, not only will you fail to run this shop, but you'll also have to watch me rake in the profits!"
She looked around with a smile, rolled her eyes and said, "What's the point of all this fancy stuff? In the end, customers only care about whether the product is good and whether the price is reasonable."
She was just saying that, Tian Bajiao saw it with her own eyes on the opening day.
She plagiarized Tian Bajiao's good idea.
The box they used was almost identical to the one they had at home.
The way they do business is similar. One side sends things, the other side also sends things. One side has private rooms for tasting incense, the other side also has a room for tasting incense. This side is very fancy, the other side... just look at the money tree, it's even more fancy than this side, and they also give the spices all kinds of nice names.
It's almost like just shuffling and reorganizing their names. They are all very similar, which is really disgusting.
The only thing that made Boss Shen feel happy was that Liu Suniang was indeed unpopular and there were far fewer customers there than on their side.
"It's worth it that I rushed to buy firecrackers and specially arrived on the same day as their opening. Look, all the people who want to watch the fun have come to our store."
At night, Boss Shen fiddled with the copper coins and laughed loudly towards the sky. He looked like a villain who had succeeded in his villainy.
Tian Bajiao had been so busy that his shoes were practically sparking. He tiredly reminded, "Today, when I was looking for someone to share the news, I saw the employees from the shop next door. They were also looking for someone to talk to about what happened the past few days. I saw they had already paid, so I didn't look for them again."
"Well done," Boss Shen praised, "We can't spend any money we can save, so let them spend it. After all, the legs are on the customers.
They just want to come to our side, there is nothing we can do about it!!!"
She almost shouted the last sentence, and it was so deafening.
It looks like he is deliberately looking for trouble.
