Chapter 293 The White-Faced Scholar's Brother



The pale-faced scholar winced in pain and retaliated by punching him.

After that, Aries left.

The pale-faced scholar sat on the ground, dejected. He knew that from today onwards, he would probably never be able to get close to Song Qingqing again.

Even if he explains, he may not be able to get her forgiveness.

Because he saved Yin Xiaozhi, who had blinded Song Qingqing.

Meanwhile, the area outside Huangcheng Xingfu Vegetable Store was being sealed off with layers of cloth strips.

Looking at the vegetable shop in front of him, Song Guoqiang was very worried. "Qingqing will be very sad if she comes back and sees that the shop has been forced to close."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoxiao stepped forward smugly, "Hmph, who told you your dishes came from dubious sources?"

This is something that goes into the mouth, so it naturally needs to go through layers of inspection.

But what about you? You didn't do any tests, yet you dared to sell them, claiming they were good for your health.

Haha! I think you guys are just obsessed with money.

Liu Xiaoxiao was overjoyed to finally see Song Qingqing's vegetable shop shut down.

She still vividly remembers what happened at the auction last time.

Especially Sikong Xingchen's face, which finally appeared in her midnight dreams.

Jiang Yiman, however, could no longer muster any interest.

She no longer goes to the Jiang family; now she only wants to steal Song Qingqing's boyfriend away.

Although it was her first time doing it, she was still very excited.

"Doesn't everyone know whether this dish is good or not?" Song Guoqiang knew that there was nothing wrong with their dishes.

Now that it has been seized under the pretext of safety concerns, the Liu family must be behind this.

Unfortunately, they were outnumbered and outmatched. If Sikong Xingchen were there, he would have helped them resolve the situation immediately.

Unfortunately, it seems he's not here.

"That's just sophistry. If your dishes were really as good as you claim, they would have been famous all over the country long ago. Why are you still unknown?" Liu Xiaoxiao retorted, glancing at the expressions of the onlookers.

I had expected to see faces filled with righteous indignation.

No, I didn't want to.

These faces showed doubt, worry, and curiosity, but not fear.

madness!

In just over a week, have these people been won over by Song Qingqing's cooking?

But it's too much of a scam.

Liu Xiaoxiao was unwilling to admit that the new variety of vegetable that Song Qingqing was selling was indeed tastier.

She tried it yesterday.

"You know nothing! We only discovered this dish two months ago, how could it have become popular yet?"

According to Song Guoqiang, their vegetables are really good; the only pity is that they were planted a little late.

"Hehe, good food is never too late, you're kidding me."

Forget it, I can't be bothered talking to a vegetable seller like you; it lowers my status.

After finishing his story, Liu Xiao happily returned to the Liu family home.

Unexpectedly, her father, Liu Dazhuang, pulled her aside and asked about yesterday's cucumbers, saying, "Xiaoxiao, yesterday's cucumbers were delicious. Why don't you buy some more for your dad?"

No, I'll buy it every day from now on, it's so delicious!

After saying that, he strode away, leaving Liu Xiaoxiao furious.

"You've never eaten cucumbers before? What's so good about them? And you buy them every day?" Liu Xiaoxiao was so angry that she started cursing.

Before we knew it, it was dinnertime, and to make matters worse, Old Master Liu brought up the matter as well.

"Xiaoxiao? The eggplants you bought yesterday were so delicious! Which farm grew them? From now on, we'll buy all our vegetables from them."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoxiao immediately lost her appetite and slammed her chopsticks heavily on the table.

Grandpa Liu glanced at her, his expression authoritative without being angry, and said, "What? Do you have a problem with what your grandfather said?"

Old Master Liu is not like Jiang Xu; he is an extremely old-fashioned man who favors sons over daughters and is the sole authority in his family.

Even Liu Dazhuang would have to give way.

"Dad, how could that be?"

Xiaoxiao is so well-behaved and cute, how could she possibly have any objections to what you said?

"She must have accidentally dropped the chopsticks; it was a misunderstanding." Liu Dazhuang, who was standing nearby, immediately spoke up for his daughter.

Liu Xiaoxiao regained her composure and immediately smiled apologetically, "Yes, Grandpa, I don't have any problem with you, I'm just worried about you."

"Oh, what do you mean?" Old Master Liu became interested, stopped what he was doing, and waited for him to continue.

Under pressure, Liu Xiaoxiao explained in detail: "The vegetables yesterday were sold by my rival, the woman who made me sell my land at a high price last time. She grew them."

I heard it's a new variety, and it even has some life-prolonging effects.

Isn't this just bragging?

Therefore, I am very worried that her food is not safe.

"After all, it's something that hasn't undergone a security check; how could we let Grandpa eat it so easily!"

Upon hearing her words, Old Master Liu suddenly remembered that he hadn't had a headache today, and the aroma of the eggplant from yesterday.

Mmm, it really smells delicious.

If this can be studied, it might have some effect on their cosmetics.

The Liu family made their fortune in daily necessities.

I've recently started researching facial cleansers and skincare products.

However, progress was not smooth.

If we can obtain the method for improving this new variety, it can also be applied elsewhere.

Thinking of this, the old man of the Liu family said to Liu Xiaoxiao, "Buy some more another day, and we'll have someone study it. Let's see if we can improve our medicinal herbs."

Liu Xiaoxiao was furious. Clearly, her grandfather didn't believe there was anything wrong with the vegetables and was even planning to use them in their Liu family business.

But she didn't dare say anything. However, getting Song Qingqing's food was no easy task these days.

"Grandpa, it's not easy to get her vegetables now. Because I had her shop shut down today."

And her vegetable garden isn't in Huangcheng either; I heard it's in a small county town, so it might take quite a while to get my hands on it.

“Our Liu family is neither short of money nor manpower. Xiao Xiao, your vision is too narrow. You will never amount to anything.”

"......"

Song Qingqing had no idea that someone else was eyeing her vegetables.

She had already arrived at the entrance of the vegetable shop.

When she saw that the store had been sealed off, she was surprised and immediately found Song Guoqiang to ask about the cause of the incident.

“They said these are our vegetables, but they haven’t undergone professional testing and can’t be sold. I think it must have been the Liu family who did it.” Song Guoqiang wasn’t making baseless accusations.

This week, Liu Xiaoxiao has become increasingly arrogant.

Seeing that Song Qingqing was not there, they were trying to find ways to make them close the door.

After learning the cause of the incident, Song Qingqing comforted him, "Uncle Guoqiang, don't worry. Since they said our vegetables are substandard and haven't been tested through proper channels, then we'll get them inspected and submit a report."

Song Qingqing is quite confident in her cooking.

Because she had previously had Mr. Fan conduct this kind of examination.

It's just a matter of going through the proper channels now.

"Okay! But what about these few days of inspection? Closing the shop is a huge loss." With Song Qingqing by his side, Song Guoqiang felt reassured.
