"That's incredibly unethical of you!"
"Yes, how can you put someone down like that? I think you only dared to do this because you think they are from out of town and their foundation is unstable."
"Hmph, I used to think your shop was such a good shop! Now it seems that not only are the things not clean, but you two are also questionable in terms of character."
"Let's go, let's go. Staying here is bad luck, let's get out of here!"
“That’s right. Next time we come to Xiaoye City, we’ll eat at that noodle shop across the street. I’m never coming here again.”
"Let's go!"
As they talked, the group left noisily.
Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Song He'er didn't want to continue arguing with the couple and turned to leave.
The shop owner was still a little uneasy, but he breathed a sigh of relief and called out to Song He'er, "I have done as you said, young lady. Will you keep your promise and not cause us any more trouble?"
Song He'er gave a sarcastic smile and retorted, "Didn't you bring this trouble upon yourselves? How come you're saying I came to cause you trouble now?"
The shop owner looked rather displeased, but he didn't lash out. He simply replied in a low voice, "What I mean is, let's just drop this matter. I hope you won't hold a grudge anymore, young lady?"
"Of course not. Since you have cleared our name in front of everyone, I am not the kind of person who goes back on his word. As long as you behave yourself and don't harm us again, this matter can be left at that..."
Upon hearing this, the shop owner breathed a long sigh of relief. "That's good. We will move away from Xiaoye City and never come back. Don't worry, young lady."
Don't worry? Even if he doesn't move out, Song He'er won't care about him at all.
How can mere ants possibly shake an elephant?
"You guys were right to have foresight. After all this commotion, even if you manage to reopen the shop, no one will buy from you anymore."
After saying this, Song He'er turned around and walked towards the backyard.
At this moment, Zhang Xiu'e was staring intently at the ragged Xu Niang, unwilling to leave for even a moment.
The once spirited proprietress now sits on the ground like a defeated chick, saying nothing.
"Third Aunt, the matter has been resolved, let's go."
Zhang Xiu'e was skeptical and hesitated to let Xu Niang go. "Really? That man explained it to those people outside himself?"
Song Xiaoyu repeatedly emphasized, "That's right, when would He'er lie? Let's hurry up and leave this mess for them to clean up themselves, so that the government officials won't come and ask us all sorts of questions later."
Zhang Xiu'e then brushed the dirt off herself, looked up and glared at Xu Niang again, before turning around and leaving the backyard.
When they returned to their shop, they saw a tall, elegant young man sitting at a square table, carefully sipping the tea on it.
Seeing that he was wearing an embroidered, moon-white satin robe and a jade hair crown, Song He'er knew that this person was no ordinary person.
"Young master, is there anything else you need?" Song He'er asked politely.
The man was taken aback at first, and after a long while, he finally replied:
"What? Have we become so estranged after just a few days?" A familiar yet magnetic voice rubbed against my eardrums.
Song He'er paused, her expression stiffening slightly...
