Chapter 197 Being Blocked
The next day, after Xu Zhiyi delivered cakes to Su Ji Lou, his mule cart was stopped on East Street.
Shen Wuyou looked at the two men who stopped the mule cart and said coldly: "What are you doing? Get out of the way!!"
Xu Zhiyi came out of the car, looked at the two people blocking the road, and frowned: "What's wrong with you two?"
"Girl, our host invites you."
The other one glanced at Shen Wuyou and Shen Changan, and corrected: “Our boss said that we only invite the young lady, so please come down and go with us.”
When Shen Changan heard this, he grabbed Xu Zhiyi's hand and shook his head slightly, indicating not to go.
Xu Zhiyi patted Shen Changan's hand, then looked at the two people standing in front of the mule cart and sneered: "Who is your boss? Is he so shameless? Do I have to go if I am asked to go?"
"Wuyou, they want to die, help them, just run over to me"
Upon hearing this, Shen Wuyou fiercely whipped the mule's hind legs, and the mule cart rushed over directly. The two were so scared that they almost couldn't dodge it, and rolled to the side, looking a little embarrassed!
The two men who got up from the ground looked at the mule cart going away and spat viciously.
"Bah! Our boss really honors her by inviting her over? I think we should just tie her up and take her over!"
"Let's go back and report to the boss and see what he plans to do."
When the two returned to Yunlai Restaurant and told the owner what had just happened, the owner of Yunlai Restaurant was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up:
"How dare a village girl be so arrogant? If I hadn't been so kind as to take a liking to her pastry recipe, would she be worthy of meeting me?"
"Hmph, that's great. I was originally planning to pay her twenty taels for the recipe, but now I've decided on the recipe. Silver? She won't be lucky enough to get it!"
Before going home, Xu Zhiyi was thinking about the shop and wanted to go over to see how it was going!
But when he arrived at the shop, he found that all the craftsmen who were supposed to decorate the shop were sitting at the door of the shop.
"What are you doing? What happened in the shop?"
When the craftsman saw Xu Zhiyi coming, he immediately stood up and said with a look of embarrassment:
"Boss, we are not lazy, it's just that a shrew came to the shop and insisted that the shop belongs to her."
"Yeah! Kick us all out!"
Xu Zhiyi was very confused when she heard this. She rented this shop from Xue Yinyin, and Xue Yinyin also had the key to the shop that day, so who else could this shop belong to?
When I entered the shop, I saw Xue Yinyin's aunt. She was directing the people she brought to tidy up the shop.
"Stop right there, I rented this shop and I have the deed in my hand. If any of you move it again, I will have to come with me to the government office."
Everyone who was busy was so frightened when they heard Xu Zhiyi's roar that they stopped immediately.
The woman looked at the motionless people, glared at them with her hands on her hips, and said, "Who told you to stop? Hurry up and continue working!"
"Bah, so what if there is a deed? The owner of this shop is my niece. When she comes, she has to let her aunt give way."
Xu Zhiyi: "Oh, the king of heaven is here, you are not allowed to move"
"So what if it's your niece's shop? I paid her a sum of money and signed a lease to rent it. From the date of the contract, I am the owner of this shop!!!"
Upon hearing this, the woman put one hand on her waist and pointed at Xu Zhiyi with the other hand: "You... I took this shop from my niece! So this shop is mine. I am informing you now that the deed is invalid."
Xu Zhiyi stared at the finger pointing at him with cold eyes. He went over and grabbed her finger and twisted it. With a click, he heard the woman's crying and screaming like a pig.
The woman looked at her hanging index finger, which was obviously broken, and screamed again: "Ah! My finger! Someone come! Someone come quickly! Someone is killing someone!"
"Aunt, what are you doing? I rented out this shop, what do you mean by bringing people here to cause trouble?"
Xie Yinyin originally wanted to ask the maid to come and find out whether Sister Zhiyi's shop had started hiring craftsmen. If not, she was planning to ask someone to come and help.
Unexpectedly, the maid came back to report that she saw the aunt having a conflict with the craftsmen hired by Miss Xu in the shop. After hearing this, Xue Yinyin rushed over without stopping and just heard her aunt's screams.
When the woman heard what Xue Yinyin said, she burst into tears and said, "Yinyin! I am your aunt. Now your aunt has had her fingers broken by this vicious woman. You have to testify for me. I am going to sue her at the government office."
Xu Zhiyi: "Oh, then go and sue now, so I don't have to go to the government office all the time!"
Xue Yinyin: "Aunt, I have already rented out this shop. You brought people here to make trouble today, but you are wrong. Even if we go to court, I can only help the right side and not the relatives."
"You...you...I am your aunt. You knew I had wanted this shop for a long time, but you actually rented it out."
"Aunt, what are you talking about? This shop is under my name. Do I need your permission to do anything I want to do with it?"
"Besides, aunt, you said before that you wanted my shop, and I made it very clear at the time that although we are relatives, we still have to sign the contract. It was you who was unwilling to sign. My shop is empty here, and I have the right to rent it out."
The woman was angry and her fingers hurt when she heard this. Her whole face wrinkled up. "You... I'm your aunt. Do we need to be so polite to a contract signed by an outsider? Can I, your aunt, owe you less money?"
"Didn't I agree to pay you once a year? Once your aunt's shop is up and running and she makes some money, how can I be reluctant to part with those dozens of taels of silver?"
Xue Yinyin: "Now that I've leased it out and signed the contract, it's useless even if you give me a hundred taels of silver!"
Then he looked at Xu Zhiyi, full of apology: "Sister Zhiyi, I'm sorry to have caused you trouble, but don't worry, Sister Zhiyi, the shop has signed a deed. If my aunt makes trouble again, you don't have to worry about me, you can just sue her directly to the government office."
Xu Zhiyi: "I have rented this shop. If anyone dares to cause trouble again, it won't be as simple as cutting off a finger. I will also be in the right if I go to the government. If you don't believe me, try it."
Hearing this, the woman glared at Xu Zhiyi angrily: "You...just wait, if there is any problem with my hand today, I will never let you go, humph!"
The craftsman the woman brought with her saw her leave angrily and hurriedly chased after her:
"Madam, you haven't been paid yet. After all, we've been working for the whole morning!"
"Yes! At least you have to pay us half a day's wages."
Upon hearing this, the woman yelled, "Bah, the shop is not mine now, go find the owner of the shop to settle the dispute."
Having said that, he endured the pain in his fingers and quickly ran to the clinic.
