Without thinking twice, Qin San Niang pulled out her tranquilizer gun and fired a shot. The dose was enough to take down a bear last time, so it should be more than enough to deal with the out-of-control horse.
"Xiao Wu, pull back, the horse is about to fall over."
"Madam Qin, what did you say?"
"Dismount! Quickly!"
Perhaps out of natural trust in Qin San Niang, Xiao Wu didn't ask any more questions and kept turning back to look for an opportunity to jump down.
For some reason, he felt that the horse was not as agitated as before, so he took the opportunity to quickly move from the horse's back to the back of the carriage.
Qin San Niang pulled Xiao Wu along and dragged him off the horse from the side. Almost the instant they were out of danger, the horse crashed to the ground, causing the carriage to tilt to one side.
Qin San Niang firmly believed that this was no accident; someone must have tampered with it! She was furious. How dare they do something under her very nose? Not only did they threaten her safety, but they also disregarded the lives of other innocent people. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them a heinous villain.
Seeing Qin San Niang's sharp gaze sweeping over them, Wang Laishun felt a pang of fear. The woman's eyes shone with anger, as if she wanted to devour him alive!
Almost instantly, he realized that this man was no ordinary worker. Although Qin San Niang was dressed as a man, her hidden weapons were truly formidable, managing to subdue Crazy Horse in an instant!
"Retreat immediately!" Wang Laishun ordered. Now that the mission was complete, there was no need to surrender here.
The leader behind him also gestured for his men to retreat! That man's skills were impressive; no one knew what kind of hidden weapon he used to bring down the raging horse in one go.
At this moment, Wang Laishun and the foreman were both a little scared. They hadn't expected that Sili Ren would have such a master hidden away. No wonder he wasn't afraid of their boss! They should go back and report this matter.
Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, "Madam Qin, what are you looking at? Did you see someone causing trouble? It must be Chen's group! They're just a bunch of cowardly scoundrels!"
"I didn't see anyone, they left a long time ago! But I will definitely not let them go. If it really is Chen Ji, I will skin him alive!" Qin San Niang said viciously, her hands were burning with pain from the reins.
"Oh no! Our cake! What are we going to do?" Seeing the fallen horse and the overturned carriage, Xiao Wu was about to cry. This was a big deal for the boss, and now he had ruined it! What should he do?!
Qin San Niang wasn't worried about that. The cake was already hidden in her spatial storage. Seeing Xiao Wu like this, she said, "Alright, stop crying. Go quickly and bring a cart over so we can push the cake over." That person had already succeeded and certainly wouldn't send anyone else to follow!
"Madam Qin, this? The cake isn't spoiled? Can it still be used?" If you bring a spoiled cake to the magistrate's daughter's birthday party, it's better not to go at all. Otherwise, it would displease the magistrate, which would be even more troublesome.
"What are you thinking? I've already placed the cake safely in the alley across the street. When I turned the corner just now, I noticed something was wrong, so I moved the cake out of the truck. I never expected this to happen. Thank goodness!"
Xiao Wu had no suspicions and thought to himself, "Thank goodness that Madam Qin is so meticulous! I'm so glad I invited her along this time, otherwise I would be in deep trouble!"
When the two arrived at the Jia mansion, the banquet was in full swing, and many guests were praising the delicious food and the excellent pastries!
Donkey rolls and hawthorn shortbread were things that most people from outside had never tried before. These unfamiliar delicacies were sure to be a hit! After finding out where they came from, I thought I'd ask my servant to buy some and bring them back for my family to enjoy.
At this moment, Sili Ren was anxiously waiting at the back door. Those who provided services naturally could not use the front door and all entered and exited through the back door, which was also closer to the kitchen.
Seeing Xiao Wu and Qin San Niang pushing the cart over, Si Li Ren looked suspicious, but he knew this wasn't the place to talk, so he quickly invited the two of them into the kitchen. Seeing that the cake was intact, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and knew that they must have encountered some mishap, otherwise they wouldn't have abandoned the carriage and switched to the cart.
"Master, Madam is asking if our surprise is ready? The main course is about to be served!" A maid dressed in a peach-colored cotton dress strolled over.
Seeing the cake on the table, her eyes widened in surprise. It looked so beautiful! Could this be Si Ji's surprise? Miss and Madam would surely love it!
Little kids love sweets, and they have little resistance to these milky and fragrant pastries, especially since these pastries are so...unique!
The maid was Yang's dowry maid and also her confidante. She had seen a lot of the world since childhood, but she had never seen these pastries before.
Without waiting for Si Liren and the others to reply, he urged, "Hurry up, Master Si! This surprise is wonderful, why don't you send it up quickly!"
"Alright!" Sili Ren turned around, waved to Xiao Wu, and was carefully escorted into the front hall by two maids standing on either side.
At this moment, Qin San Niang, dressed in men's clothing, sat on a stool and recounted in detail to Si Li Ren what had happened that morning, believing it to be a premeditated accident.
While Xiao Wu went to find the cart, she carefully inspected the horse. There was an embroidery needle on its hoof! Moreover, there were many other needles scattered around, clearly indicating that someone had arranged this in advance to embarrass them today.
"This is infuriating!" The Master of Ceremonies clenched her fist hidden in her sleeve. "Did you see what that person looked like, sister? I'll send someone to investigate right away!"
When his elder sister came last time, she assigned him a few capable guards, which are now coming in handy!
"I didn't get a good look at those people, but Xiao Wu and I both guessed that they must be connected to Chen's business."
“I understand. If it really was Chen Yushan who did this, I will not let it go! Doesn’t his family want to do wine business? He’s allowed to cause trouble for me, but can’t I play dirty tricks with him?” Sili Ren said in a deep voice.
His elder sister valued him highly because he was able to revive a dying pastry shop!
Since her elder sister currently lacks suitable manpower, her half-brother has become her best partner. Otherwise, she wouldn't have entrusted him with the carefully trained guards; their indentures are now in her hands, which speaks volumes about her sincerity!
Since these people came along, Sili Ren felt more confident walking around!
"Brother, do you also want to get involved in the wine business?" Qin San Niang asked in surprise.
"Of course, why not? You might not know this, but the ancestors of the Si family in Jiangzhou made their fortune in wine, right? Our ancestor once brewed Peach Blossom Wine, which was later selected as a tribute wine!"
However, as the family business grew larger and larger, the wine business, which they were so proud of, gradually declined!
Fortunately, my elder sister was a remarkable woman; she always harbored the ambition to restore our family's honor.
