Gu Zhinian briefly told Yun Muye about Li Guiying's situation. Yun Muye frowned.
"Sister-in-law Li, if you want your compensation back, you should go find someone else. Zhinian can't help you!"
Li Guiying raised her head and said anxiously, "She can help me. She has a good relationship with Judge Sun Qiuxia. If I just tell her, she will definitely help me get the compensation back when she makes the judgment!"
"Li Guiying!" Gu Zhinian scolded harshly, "What do you think of the law? You're smearing Judge Sun! The court makes decisions based on evidence, not connections."
Sun Qiuxia walked out of the court, "Zhi Nian, don't bother with her! She's just being unreasonable."
Li Guiying stood up and questioned Sun Qiuxia, "Isn't the court a place to redress grievances for the people? Yet you're helping the people who harmed me and refusing to seek justice for me. Did the market manager pay you? You're not fit to be law enforcement officers!"
Sun Qiuxia's face turned cold as she scolded, "Li Guiying, the court handles cases based on evidence. Without evidence, you are making up nonsense and wrongly accusing law enforcement officers. I have the right to sue you!"
Li Guiying shrank back in fear, but still argued.
"They destroyed my goods, isn't that evidence? Why did they close my shop? I'm just doing business honestly, who am I bothering?"
Sun Qiuxia spoke in a calm tone.
"You run a lingerie store and hire girls to wear clothes in public. This behavior is indeed inappropriate. It is the market manager's responsibility to close your store. If you continue to make trouble, it will not benefit you in any way!"
Li Guiying was so anxious that she went crazy.
"What about my goods? What about my lost goods?"
Sun Qiuxia: "We originally wanted to save your face, but since you've been causing trouble, I can only say that the market manager came to me and said that the underwear you sell is immoral and has a negative impact on people's thinking."
Li Guiying sneered, "That's because they're conservative! They don't allow us to innovate!"
Sun Qiuxia could no longer bear it.
"Is your innovation that women wear underwear with just two tiny pieces of cloth? You... if you wanted to wear it, you could have done it secretly. But you wore it in public for everyone to see! You're so shameful! I'm embarrassed to even say anything to you!"
"What do you know! That's a bra! It's not good for women's breasts if they wear a vest every day!" Li Guiying retorted.
Everyone present listened with red faces and started a heated discussion.
"What's a bra? I've only heard of wearing a tank top, but what the heck is a bra?"
"What do you know? That's called fun! Everyone in the city loves it!"
"This woman is too fashionable. She might as well not wear a bra at all!"
"Foreign women wouldn't dare dress like that!"
"Have you ever seen foreign women dressed like this? Haha!"
Gu Zhinian didn't want to listen to these dirty words anymore, so he dragged Yun Muye back home.
Yun Muye was afraid that she would be unhappy, so he comforted her.
"Don't make yourself angry because of others, it's not worth it."
"I'm fine!" Gu Zhinian smiled at him, "Let's go home!"
When the two of them went upstairs, they ran into a group of women coming down from upstairs angrily. Li Xiufang was also in the crowd. When she saw Gu Zhinian, she grabbed her and asked:
"Xiao Gu, have you seen Li Guiying? She borrowed money from all of us to open a shop and do business. I heard her shop was closed down. What about our money?"
"That's right! We go looking for her every day, but there's no one at home!"
"She won't run away!"
Gu Zhinian was very curious. At this time, when every family was struggling, why would they willingly lend money to Li Guiying? "What did Li Guiying say that made you willingly lend her the money?"
Everyone was a little embarrassed to speak, Li Xiufang spoke,
"It's not a loan. Li Guiying said, what do we call it? Oh! Investment. She said we give her money to invest, and when she makes money from her business, she will give us dividends in proportion. The more money we get, the more we will get at the end of the year. We didn't just give her the money in a moment of confusion!"
Mrs. Zhou sighed, "Fortunately, I gave little, only ten yuan."
"I gave her twenty dollars! I'm so heartbroken!"
"I took more than I deserved. I gave her fifty, thinking I could double the money later. Now it's all gone."
"You seem to trust her quite a bit." Gu Zhinian said.
The sisters-in-law said one after another:
"Li Guiying did make a lot of money before. Look at her new clothes and shoes. She looked so beautiful. We all saw it and envied her for being able to make money. When she approached us about investing, we all agreed."
"We were just trying to make some money for our family, but we got scammed!"
"Oh my! What am I going to do with my fifty dollars? That's several months' worth of living expenses for my whole family! It's all gone down the drain!"
Gu Zhinian pursed his lips and said nothing. Everyone was anxious to get money and went downstairs to find Li Guiying. Gu Zhinian and Yun Muye made way for them to go down.
When she got home, Li Yuling also talked about this matter. "This Li Guiying also came to me before. I was cheated by Wang Zhaodi before, so I don't believe Li Guiying at all. No matter what she says, I won't invest!"
Gu Zhinian praised: "Mom, you did the right thing! Anyone who wants you to take money is a liar, don't trust him!"
After a while, there was a noise in the corridor, which became more and more intense, and someone knocked on the door.
"Captain Yun! Come out and break up the fight! It's started!"
Yun Muye opened the door and it was Li Xiufang's man, Liu Qiang. Liu Qiang hurriedly pulled Yun Muye,
"Captain Yun, come and help! Those women are fighting with Li Guiying!"
