Chapter 230: Expelling Madam Liu
Prefect Liu was discussing the direction of the autumn wind with Magistrate Wang.
"Sir, does Guancheng encounter this situation every year?" Wang Tongpan frowned.
Magistrate Liu nodded slowly: "Yes, it's the annual strong wind season again."
"Sir, someone from the Luo family has reported a case." The bailiff knocked on the door hurriedly.
When Prefect Liu heard the name Luo Family, his heart couldn't help but tremble: "Lord Wang, do you know what happened to the Luo Family?"
Judge Wang shook his head and said, "Let's go and take a look."
When the door was opened and he heard what the visitor from the Luo family said, his forehead throbbed violently.
He could no longer suppress his anger: "Go and bring him back!"
"yes!"
…
Luo family.
Mrs. Liu had a bad temper and kept making threats one after another.
"Mr. Zhu, you still think you are the former Crown Prince's Consort. In my eyes, you are worse than an ant on the ground."
Luo Xiao was so angry that he threw the teacup to the ground with a bang and said viciously: "Evil woman, I think you are the maggot in the ground, dirty and ugly, and you dare to scold my mother. I, Luo Xiao, will never let the Liu family go."
"Bah, who the hell do you think you are, a junior? How dare you threaten me?"
Mrs. Liu was used to being arrogant. In Guancheng, she had never been afraid of anyone except the wife of the prefect.
Now I go to someone’s house to ask them to sell it, but they don’t know what’s good for them!
When has she ever felt so aggrieved?
"Haha, I'm just a poor man. I can only die in this city in the future."
Madam Liu said as she glared at the other person fiercely:
"I'm here to advise you to let me go now, or you'll have a rough time in the future!"
"Pah—" Zhu Mingqing looked at her coldly, "It seems you don't want this mouth anymore today!"
The lady was stunned. She looked at the teacup on the table. She started to go crazy after she came over. She stomped on the ground and tried desperately to break free from the old woman who was holding her down.
Zhu Mingqing gave them a look and they indeed let go.
"You dare to hit me?!"
Mrs. Liu rushed forward.
Zhu Mingqing raised his leg and kicked the man directly to the door.
Just then, Mr. Liu came in and caught the other person directly.
Mr. Liu heard his wife's crazy talk from a distance, and he held her down hard. The other party didn't care and scratched his face, leaving bloodstains all over it.
Behind Mr. Liu were two officials sent by Prefect Liu. When one of them saw this, he cursed Madam Liu in his heart.
But he still stepped forward and respectfully said to Zhu Mingqing, "I'm sorry to bother Madam Zhu today. Magistrate Liu ordered us to take the man back. I hope Madam Zhu won't blame me. I will definitely have Master Liu and his wife come to apologize another day."
"Yes, yes, apologize!" Mr. Liu held his wife's hands tightly, feeling that he was extremely unlucky today.
He had just complained to his wife about wanting to buy a house, but who knew that this man was so used to being sought after that he actually came here alone.
Did she still think that Madam Zhu was one of those women who didn't dare to talk back when bullied in the past?
Madam Liu was still refusing to give in, but when she saw the attitude of the yamen runner, she struggled less vigorously.
Master Liu took the opportunity to whisper in her ear, "Behave yourself! Your brother-in-law doesn't dare to provoke the Luo family anymore!"
This sentence made Mrs. Liu's eyes widen immediately: "But she hit me!"
Master Liu was so disappointed: "Serves you right. Who told you to come here and cause trouble?"
"I just want to help you. Besides, why didn't you tell me earlier about such an important matter?" Mrs. Liu panicked for a second. She was taking advantage of her power to bully others, and the person she was taking advantage of was her brother-in-law, Magistrate Liu.
"I told you to behave yourself long ago, but you're still so arrogant. You'll have to bear the consequences!"
"You two!" Zhu Mingqing stepped forward and said coldly, "No need to apologize. If you want to quarrel, get out!"
When Mrs. Liu heard that she was told to get out, her face changed again. If her husband hadn't stopped her, she really wanted to go up and slap this bitch.
"Let's go!"
Mr. Liu was also unhappy, as he was angry with his wife and also because Madam Zhu was so disrespectful to him.
"That's right!" Zhu Mingqing's eyes were calm, but they made people's backs cold: "This lady will not sell the house in Chengliu Lane!"
Mr. Liu's heart sank. After what happened today, how could Madam Zhu still do business with him?
He glared at Madam Liu fiercely. Madam Liu felt a pang of relief, and she always felt that she might have done something wrong today.
Watching the two people walk out of the room, Luo Xiao really wanted to go up and beat up the couple.
She had broken into the house without permission. If the servants and guards had not been concerned about her identity, they would have thrown her out long ago.
One who relies on someone behind him to force purchases and sales.
"Mother, why don't you say anything? How can you bear it?" Luo Xiao was indignant.
Zhu Mingqing: "How can I not be angry? Are you going to beat her up? Whose influence does the Liu family rely on? As long as that person is gone, can the Liu family still stay in Guancheng?"
Those who are bullied can bite the other person to death.
She loves to hit the target with one blow!
"But are we just going to let them be so arrogant now?" Luo Xiao was still angry.
Zhu Mingqing said calmly, "Tell Baolu that we can open a Mingjia rice shop in Guancheng."
Luo Xiao showed a hint of joy on his face: "Really?"
Zhu Mingqing nodded and said, "Open it. We have to open a few more Ming family rice shops."
Only in this way can you accumulate the favorability of tens of thousands of people as quickly as possible.
"Mother is wise." Luo Xiao felt relieved. "The Liu family's main business is rice. As long as we open a Ming family rice shop, we can suppress them to the end!"
"I'll go discuss this matter with Brother Wen right now." Luo Xiao stood up quickly, and in his haste he accidentally touched a stack of books and papers on the table.
It fell all over the floor with a loud noise.
Zhu Mingqing had no choice but to get up and pack up.
"Mother, what is this?"
Luo Xiao was holding a topographic map in his hand and asked curiously.
Zhu Mingqing saw it and said: "Other people's house!"
Luo Xiao: "Whose family is this? Did something offend you?"
Zhu Mingqing snorted: "It's nothing, just a casual drawing."
At that time, she wanted to draw Feng Yu's side and take the opportunity to find someone to investigate.
But so much time has passed, and the other party's house is as tight as an iron barrel, and there is no way to get in.
This matter can only be put aside for now.
"This room is quite empty." Luo Xiao was holding the room where Zhu Mingqing and Luo Tingshan had met. "Hey, there's also sorghum cake. Not many people eat this now."
As he said that, he rolled it up and put it away.
"What is sorghum cake?"
"It's made with sorghum and is popular in the southwest. I heard that soldiers in the southwest love to eat this. It tastes sweet and is very filling!" Luo Xiao explained, and finally muttered softly, "It's also my father's favorite food."
Zhu Mingqing was concentrating on cleaning the table and didn't pay much attention to it. "Okay, hurry up and find Baolu. I'll leave the rice business to you."
"I'll go right away!"
But not long after he left, he came back with a serious look on his face and suppressed excitement.
"Mom, something happened!"
