Chapter 206: The Wolf and the Crow

"I told you not to come, don't come! Now you see, I've lost face, but they don't want me, and I didn't even get to eat breakfast. Hurry back and pack your things, and go home early. It's okay for you and me to be hungry, but don't let the child get hungry."

Jiang Lingu's stomach was rumbling.

He glared at Zhou Gaier unhappily.

The gentle attitude he had towards her in the past had long since disappeared.

"How could I know that they were so arrogant and dared to beat me in broad daylight? Oh my, my boss, my whole body hurts. I can't swallow this anger. When I go back, I will definitely complain to my father and drive them all out of Jiangjia Village and let them die on the streets. Oh my, it hurts so much."

Every step Zhou Gaier takes.

It's so painful.

She cursed the Jiang family and moaned, completely ignoring the fact that they were on the street.

The people coming and going all looked at her with strange eyes.

Jiang Lingu's already dark complexion became even gloomier.

"Shut up! Isn't this embarrassing enough?" he cursed angrily.

Zhou Gaier could only bite his lips.

Swallow the sound of pain.

Just as the two were leaving Baishi Street and preparing to go to Wanlu Street.

The Wan couple stood in front of them.

"Just now I saw Zhang chase you out. Do you know Zhang? What is your relationship with her?"

Bai Qianshan didn't even introduce himself, he just started asking questions.

Jiang Lingu was about to get angry, but when he saw how luxuriously they were dressed, he immediately changed his expression.

He said it in a particularly flattering manner.

"We are from the same village as Zhang's, and we are from the same clan. I used to work as a bookkeeper in the town, but the shopkeeper had some family problems, so I closed the shop. As you know, life is hard now, and I can't find a job. I happened to know that Aunt Zhang opened a shop in the town, so I thought of asking her if I could work as a bookkeeper in her shop.

After all, they are illiterate and can't read the account book. I was just trying to help them. Who knew that after we spoke to them in a nice way, they took advantage of the money they made and ignored everyone. Not only did they beat my wife, they also drove us out. If it weren't for the child who I had to protect, I would have fought with them to the death."

Jiang Lingu didn't even blush after telling such a lie.

He was filled with righteous indignation, as if the coward hiding in the corner just now was not him.

"Humph, isn't it just selling some meat cakes and mung bean soup? She asks the villagers to send bamboo tubes to her house all day long. When I get home, I will tell my father-in-law to drive them out of Jiangjia Village. I don't know where they can go to buy bamboo tubes. The shop is so small, with only four tables. If they can't buy bamboo tubes, they can't take the mung bean soup away.

I don’t think her business can be that good. And the meat skewers she makes are so expensive, and she even deceived us and said we can’t make any money. Who can believe it? It’s obvious that she doesn’t want to help us make money. She doesn’t give us any benefits. How can it be a good thing? The owner of the shop should just chase them away!”

Zhou Gaier also echoed Jiang Lingu and loudly cursed the Jiang family.

She has adapted to the pig-face.

The speech became much clearer.

Bai Qianshan looked them up and down.

His eyes gradually deepened.

"So you and she are from the same village, so you also know what kind of food she sells? What's that bamboo tube you mentioned just now?"

Bai Qianshan continued to ask.

But the streets were crowded and noisy, and ox carts passed by from time to time, and the narrow streets had to give way to the ox carts.

It's really troublesome.

He and Wan Zhen took Jiang Lingu and his family of three to a steamed bun shop.

"Waiter, give me ten meat buns, oh no, ten vegetarian buns."

Bai Qianshan has always only eaten meat buns, but buns are expensive nowadays, and it would hurt if he really bought ten.

He was also reluctant to treat the family of three to meat buns.

Just change your words.

I am also a vegetarian.

At this time, it was already morning and the business of the bun shop was very quiet. There was only one table in the shop.

On the table were ten vegetarian buns brought by the waiter.

The two-year-old Jiang Muyao didn't know any rules at all. Without waiting for Bai Qianshan to speak, he grabbed a vegetarian bun and stuffed it into his mouth.

It's like I haven't eaten in eight lifetimes.

Even worse than a beggar on the street.

This made Wan's brows furrowed.

If her husband couldn't use them, she would have cursed them long ago.

"Are you hungry? Eat quickly, poor child. Zhang is really too much. How can she be so noisy in front of the child? Even if she is wild, she can't beat you in front of the child.

Isn't it obvious that she is bullying you by relying on her numbers? Hey, let me be honest with you, the shop she rented is actually mine. If I had known she was such a person, I would never have rented it to her!"

Bai Qianshan pretended to be kind and touched Jiang Muyao's head.

In fact, the smile was very fake.

The couple heard that the shop rented by the Jiang family belonged to the man in front of them.

There is nothing else in my eyes.

His face was full of excitement.

"Is the shop yours? No wonder. I was wondering why you asked me these questions and even treated us to buns. You are such a good person. What should I call you, old man?"

Jiang Lingu became more attentive.

"Just call me Mr. Bai. Oh, I regret it. If I had known that they were such a person, I would never have rented the shop. Forget it. I will take the shop back in a few days. I can't let them ruin the reputation of my shop. Otherwise, who would dare to rent my shop in the future? Don't you think so? Besides, I don't plan to rent this shop again.

The food made by the Jiang family is very popular in the town. Who hasn't heard of it? I'm afraid they made a lot of money. I thought, why not sell it myself? Unfortunately, I don't have anyone I trust to help me run the shop. I just heard that you used to be a cashier? In that case, why don't you come to my shop and I'll give you a job as a shopkeeper, how about it? "

Bai Qianshan continued to fake a smile.

What he said made Jiang Lingu completely stunned.

"What? Shopkeeper? You want me to be the shopkeeper? Really?"

Even Zhou Gaier couldn't care less about the pain in his body.

She also asked, "Master Bai, please don't lie to us. We can't say anything nonsense about this. This is the shopkeeper. Do you really want my husband to be the shopkeeper?"

Both of them stared with their eyes wide open.

Two-year-old Jiang Muyao, however, was busy eating.

He didn't care what they were saying. At this moment, the only thing in his eyes was the vegetarian bun in his hand.

"Really, not only the shopkeeper, but also the food preparation has been handed over to your wife. I will give you one tael of silver per month, of course, for both of you. If the business of the shop is particularly good, I will reward you with another two taels of silver before the New Year. However, I have some things for you to do."

Bai Qianshan kept it a secret.

He also picked up a vegetarian bun, put it to his mouth and took a bite.

There is no oil or water in it.

It's not even as good as meat.

But it's too late to treat.

Just eat whatever you want.
