Chapter 478: Stop Pretending and Show Your Cards
When Manager Yao rushed over, Zhang Juexia had just slowly finished drinking the chicken soup that Li Yun had asked Taohua to make.
When Shopkeeper Yao saw Zhang Juexia, he asked her to stand up, "Well, you've gained weight. Come on, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?
If Aunt Wang hadn't come to my place yesterday and mentioned your story, I would still be in the dark."
Zhang Juexia explained with a smile, "I just wanted to give you a surprise! Come on, sit down!"
After sitting down, Manager Yao continued to stare at Zhang Juexia, "Well, your face is quite rosy. It seems that Ye Beixiu is taking good care of you."
"My face has gotten fatter too!"
Shopkeeper Yao took his hand away from Zhang Juexia's face and said, "It's better to be a little fatter than to be pale and skinny.
Seeing you like this now, your mother can also feel at ease."
Zhang Juexia felt a little disappointed when she heard Shopkeeper Yao sigh, but she quickly adjusted herself and tried to persuade Shopkeeper Yao, "Shopkeeper Yao, it must be a blessing for my mother to have a little fangirl like you!
No, this blessing has fallen on me. Thank you, Shopkeeper Yao, for always caring for me silently when I can't see you. "
"Okay, we're living such a good life now, let's stop being sentimental.
To be honest, if you hadn't come to me on your own initiative, I would have forgotten about your mother and you.
Alas, sometimes I regret that I had paid attention to you earlier. How great it would have been!
Perhaps your life would be better before you get married."
Zhang Juexia leaned against Shopkeeper Yao and started to act coquettishly, "We agreed not to talk about the past. I've forgotten all the bad things."
"Okay, it's better to forget. Only by forgetting can you live a better life."
Shopkeeper Yao helped Zhang Juexia up and said, "You're such a grown-up, yet you've already learned to act like a spoiled child. I've brought a lot of things in the carriage outside. Have someone unload them quickly."
"I'm sorry to have cost you money again."
"What's the big deal? As long as you can give birth to the child smoothly, I'll be happy to give you anything, not to mention a whole carriage of stuff."
Zhang Juexia let Manager Yao drink tea, and placed the plate of snacks next to her, letting her eat the snacks.
"Manager Yao, do you want to try the food at Zuixianlou for lunch, or the food made by my cook?"
Shopkeeper Yao thought for a moment and said, "It's a little late today. Let's eat the meal your cook prepared first. Tomorrow, you can accompany me to Zuixianlou."
Zhang Juexia looked at Manager Yao in surprise, "You're not going back to Jinshui Town today?"
Shopkeeper Yao took a bite of the dessert and said, "I didn't say I was going back today! I'm in a good mood, so I thought I'd stay at your house for a few more days. I wonder if you'd welcome me?"
"Welcome, welcome, definitely welcome."
After lunch, when Shopkeeper Yao and Zhang Juexia woke up from their nap, Shopkeeper Yao asked Zhang Juexia mysteriously, "I have another big happy event that I haven't told you about yet. Can you guess it?"
Zhang Juexia had guessed what was going on long ago. She knew that given Manager Yao's personality, it was not easy for him to hold it in until now.
She shook her head deliberately and said, "My brain is all about eating and sleeping these days, I really can't guess!
Shopkeeper Yao, please, for the sake of my pregnancy, it is not easy for me, and please tell me quickly!
People can’t wait any longer.”
Shopkeeper Yao glared at her with disdain. "How can you belittle yourself like that? Alright, if you don't say anything, I can't hold it in any longer."
Zhang Juexia quickly sat down obediently and pretended to listen attentively.
"Yesterday, I heard that Fang Lan is in town, asking people to borrow money."
"Why would she borrow money? Didn't her family just get a big deal? Wouldn't she be getting the money soon?"
"Don't mention it. I heard that Liu Hong was detained outside. If you don't come up with enough money, they won't release him."
"Is it really that serious? I really don't understand. Didn't he go to Qingling City to deliver goods to his customers?
How could he be detained? Did he offend someone?"
Zhang Juexia's string of questions made Manager Yao push her arm and say, "Alright, stop pretending and tell me what's going on!"
I knew that Liu Hong’s incident had something to do with you.”
Zhang Juexia pretended to be innocent and pitiful, "Manager Yao, you are really wronging me. I am obviously taking good care of my pregnancy at home.
I haven't been anywhere these days, how could I know so much?"
Shopkeeper Yao glared at her and said, "How dare you say this has nothing to do with you? Come on, stop messing with me.
As soon as Liu Hong got into trouble, I knew it, and I'm sure you'll know everything about it."
Zhang Juexia felt that Manager Yao's patience had reached its limit. If she continued to argue with her, she would probably get anxious and angry.
She picked up a glass of water, moistened her throat, and then briefly explained the whole story.
After he finished speaking, Manager Yao looked at her with an even gentler look in his eyes, "I didn't expect this, I didn't expect this, I originally thought you inherited your mother's cleverness, but it seems that you are even less capable than your mother!
Yao admires it. "
Shopkeeper Yao bowed to Zhang Juexia sincerely.
"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it! I just guessed it right, and then asked our partners in Qingling City to add fuel to the fire. I didn't expect that this thing would be successful."
"Juexia, do you think Liu Hong can escape this disaster?"
"It's hard to say. This time he offended Zhao Fumin from Qingling City. I heard Gao Xing say that he has a bandit background and is ruthless. He hates being deceived the most."
"Then he has hit a wall this time."
“In fact, when Liu Hong took over Zhao Fumin’s business, as long as he didn’t play tricks and pass off inferior products as good ones.
It's just a matter of earning less money, not losing money."
Shopkeeper Yao disagreed with Zhang Juexia's words, "Liu Hong is not the same kind of person as us. How could he be willing to earn less money in business if you ask him to?
So, this time it's all his own fault!"
"Um."
"I'm telling you, if Fang Lan comes to borrow money from you, you can't lend it to her."
"No way, how could she have the nerve to come to me to borrow money."
Shopkeeper Yao rolled his eyes at Zhang Juexia and said, "I know her personality best. In her heart, there is no such thing as face.
As long as it's profitable, she doesn't care about appearances or things like that."
Zhang Juexia's mouth opened wide. "Oh my God, where is her bottom line?"
"This kind of person has no bottom line. Forget it, let's not talk about her anymore. Tell me quickly, what should we do with the embroiderers at the Xiucai Embroidery Workshop?
It's just as you said. As soon as Liu Hong took the goods to Qingling City, Fang Lan drove away these embroiderers.
Before chasing them away, he scolded the embroiderers. You have no idea how harsh his words were.
Several embroiderers who couldn't help themselves came forward and slapped Fang Lan in the face.
