Upon examination, it was discovered that both of them had the disease, and for a moment, everyone in the hospital wanted to stay as far away from them as possible.
Mei Hanxiao looked utterly disappointed; she felt like she was doomed.
Zhou Xuan, on the other hand, hated Mei Hanxiao, saying that if she hadn't said that, she wouldn't have ended up in this situation.
He beat Mei Hanxiao up. Mei Hanxiao hadn't eaten for days and had no strength to fight back.
She could only beg for mercy. Seeing her beg for mercy, Zhou Xuan felt extremely pleased. Before Mei Hanxiao could react, Xiao Ke, who had come to the hospital for treatment, also noticed her.
The two of them worked together to knock Mei Hanxiao unconscious. They only stopped when she was unconscious. Xiao Ke asked Zhou Xuan with a frightened expression.
"Brother Zhou, what should we do?"
"Let's go see a doctor."
The two women left, ignoring Mei Hanxiao behind them; the doctors had spotted her.
They disliked her and dumped her at the back gate of the hospital. A beggar on the roadside saw a woman lying in the middle of the road.
They took Mei Hanxiao home. When Mei Hanxiao woke up again, she found that her hands and feet were tied up and her mouth was sealed.
Fear flashed in her eyes as she looked at the beggar in front of her.
What do you want to do?
You'll find out soon enough.
Realizing what they wanted to do, Mei Hanxiao quickly explained that she was ill.
But these people didn't care at all. No matter what she said, she couldn't escape today. Mei Hanxiao was in despair.
I recalled her days as Minister of Foreign Affairs, how glamorous they were.
Everyone used to fawn over her, so how did things turn out like this? In the end, she thought of Ye Zhaozhao.
Yes, it's all Ye Zhaozhao's fault. If it weren't for him, Qi Lan wouldn't have discovered her. From then on, Mei Hanxiao wanted to escape every day.
But different beggars come in every day; there are probably dozens of beggars in this area.
Mei Hanxiao couldn't escape, so she could only transfer all her hatred to Ye Zhaozhao.
It was another weekend, and Liu Shu was going out to check on the shops. She was about to leave.
Ye Zhaozhao figured she had nothing better to do, and since she had decided to invest in Liu Shu, she had to do it well.
"Comrade Ye, I've looked at several shops before, but those people are unwilling to rent them to me."
These days, Liu Shu is also very troubled by the shop. Ye Zhaozhao thought she would go and take a look first, and if it was suitable, she would just buy the shop.
"Sister Liu Shu, from now on we'll be business partners. You can just call me Zhao Zhao."
"good."
When the two of them arrived on the street, the shopkeepers immediately poured cold water on her when they saw her.
"Why are you here again? Haven't I already explained everything to you?"
"There's no way we'd rent the shop to you. You're a woman, you should just stay home and behave yourself. What kind of business would you be doing?"
When Ye Zhaozhao saw that the people who said this were all men, and heard the discrimination against women in their words, she directly retorted.
"What's wrong with women? Isn't your mother a woman? Isn't your wife a woman? Who says women should stay at home?"
Seeing that Ye Zhaozhao was quite pretty, no one spoke to her, but their eyes were full of mockery.
Ye Zhaozhao and Liu Shu went to ask around.
Sure enough, when people heard that the two of them were going to start a business, no one wanted to rent out their shops anymore.
If they lose so much money they can't even pay the rent, they'll be losing money instead.
Seeing that they couldn't rent the shops they wanted, the men began to gloat.
Another reason why they were unwilling to rent to them was that they were also in business.
Of course, it's impossible to rent the shop to competitors, let alone them.
Even grown men struggle to run a business, so they simply didn't believe that two women could make it work.
There was only one old man who was willing to give them the entire shop, but he was too old.
There's no point in guarding this shop every day; it's better to rent it out so he can go home and lie down.
Ye Zhaozhao and Liu Shu looked around and were quite satisfied. The shop was on the second floor, which was perfect for opening a clothing store. Ye Zhaozhao asked about the rent.
The old man felt that the shop couldn't be left empty and unattended, so he asked for a monthly rent of five yuan.
Ye Zhaozhao and Liu Shu both thought it was suitable.
"Sir, you really believe those two? Be careful, or you might not even be able to collect the rent back later."
"That's right. Look at us businesses, we don't even make more than a few dollars a month."
The old man hesitated after hearing their words, so Ye Zhaozhao spoke up directly.
How much did you pay for this shop?
The old man was surprised that Ye Zhaozhao wanted to buy it, and even Liu Shu was shocked.
The way those men looked at Ye Zhaozhao changed; they thought to themselves, "This woman really can afford to buy a shop."
"Is he just putting on a show of wealth?" the old man thought. "If he were to actually buy it, that would be wonderful."
He wasn't worried about the subsequent rent and said the purchase price was two hundred yuan.
Two hundred yuan for such a shop is really not expensive. Ye Zhaozhao and the old man quickly completed the transfer procedures.
The shop now belongs to Ye Zhaozhao, and Liu Shu is still in a daze.
The old man took the money, gave them the keys, and left. The men were surprised that Ye Zhaozhao could actually afford to buy the shop. Ye Zhaozhao looked at them.
"You should spend more time worrying about your own businesses. If you can't make money, it's because you're incompetent."
They were all angry when a woman told them they were incompetent, but they couldn't retaliate.
All we can do is wait and see her fail. On the way back, Ye Zhaozhao told Liu Shu that the shop needed to be renovated and that they needed to buy a sewing machine.
"Zhaozhao, leave these matters to me."
"good."
When Ye Zhaozhao returned to the family compound, she saw Sun Xiuhua coming to find her, saying that Gu Yunduan and the others had returned.
