Chapter 342 Cover
"Miao Miao." Gu Yuan's mother called Xu Miaomiao softly and looked at her with a mother-in-law's eyes. Xu Miaomiao knew exactly what she wanted to say. She quickly shook her head at Gu Yuan's mother, turned and left.
He mumbled, "Okay, hold back all those words of thanks. Just stay here with him and don't worry about the other things. I'll bring Ling'er to see you every three days."
Gu Yuanniang looked at Xu Miaomiao's graceful figure leaving and smiled sweetly. It is a blessing in this life to have such a friend.
Xu Miaomiao had just returned to the store and confirmed that Xuguo had not returned yet. She couldn't help feeling a little worried and immediately drove the carriage towards the restaurant. The two streets were a little distance apart, but it was still relatively fast with a carriage, and Xu Miaomiao arrived in a short while.
Xu Miaomiao pretended that she was going to check at Xiangchunfang, but she kept her head tilted up curiously, trying to find out the situation in the restaurant.
When Shopkeeper Wan saw Xu Miaomiao coming, he immediately came up to greet her, "Mrs. Xu is here."
After saying that, Shopkeeper Wan looked behind Xu Miaomiao again. He didn't see anyone, and there was a little disappointment between his brows. He was expecting someone to come. Xu Miaomiao naturally knew clearly in her mind, so she immediately explained, "Weiwei is busy counting the accounts in the department store, and she didn't come with us."
Shopkeeper Wan was exposed, and he scratched his head in embarrassment. He looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "It's good that Madam Xu is here, it's good that she is here, but I don't know if Madam Xu is here to check the accounts today or not. "
Shopkeeper Wan hesitated to speak, wanting to listen to Xu Miaomiao's further arrangements, but Xu Miaomiao kept shaking her head and did not tell Shopkeeper Wan about the restaurant and department store. After all, the fewer people involved in this matter, the easier it would be for them to resolve it.
Xu Miaomiao explained, "It's nothing serious. I just happened to come over to see you. Shopkeeper Wan, don't worry about me. Just take care of your own things."
Seeing that Xu Miaomiao said this, Manager Wan did not accompany Xu Miaomiao anymore. He nodded at him, then turned and left.
Xu Miaomiao found a conspicuous seat at the door and sat down, staring at the situation in the restaurant opposite. She looked around the restaurant for a long time before she found Xuguo. He was sitting there drinking like everyone else, but his brows were tightly furrowed.
Xu Miaomiao also knew that there were fewer people on the opposite side, and that she might be being watched closely, so Xu Miaomiao took the initiative to walk out and came to the restaurant.
The people in the restaurant had experienced what happened last time, so they naturally knew Xu Miaomiao. When the shopkeeper saw him coming, his brows slightly frowned, but when he saw Xu Miaomiao the next moment, he changed his expression to joy, took a step forward, took Xu Miaomiao's hand and said, "Madam Xu, why are you here? It's a great honor to see you!"
Xu Miaomiao nodded slightly to him, and then the shopkeeper waved his hand, looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "I haven't done anything harmful these days, and the wine in my house is all legitimate. Madam Xu, are you here to cause trouble?"
"From what the shopkeeper said, I am the one who is wrong."
Xu Miaomiao asked back. This person put all the blame on her in just a few words, saying that she was just finding fault due to industry competition. Xu Miaomiao was very dissatisfied.
Seeing Xu Miaomiao coming, Xuguo also made a gesture to him. Knowing that Xu Miaomiao was helping him delay time, he immediately found a hidden place to put down the contraband salt.
"Hey, sir, what do you need?"
When the shopkeeper saw Xuguo stand up, he immediately wanted to step forward and ask.
Xu Miaomiao stepped forward, took the shopkeeper's hand and said, "Let those guys take care of the customers' problems. I have something to say to the shopkeeper today."
Seeing Xu Miaomiao say this, the man thought for a while and nodded to Xu Miaomiao, then invited her to the attic.
Before going upstairs, Xu Miaomiao gave Xuguo a look.
Xu Guo understood what was going on. As soon as she came in, the man respectfully poured a cup of tea for Xu Miaomiao. He looked at her and said, "I wonder what you want to teach me today, Madam Xu?"
When Xu Miaomiao saw that he looked playful but was actually a two-faced person, she suddenly felt nauseous and almost vomited.
Xu Miaomiao pretended to be calm, looked at the man and said calmly: "I reported a salt smuggler a few days ago. What do you think of my approach, boss?"
Xu Miaomiao's question suddenly startled the man, who almost dropped the teacup in his hand. He immediately said, "Madam Xu, it is of course righteous to do this. I heard that your uncle is also in there. How can we not learn from such a fair person?"
Hearing these compliments, Xu Miaomiao smiled slightly. She didn't expect that this man could be so cunning. Even after she said such things, he could still endure it.
Xu Miaomiao smiled. The man was a little puzzled, so he asked Xu Miaomiao, "Madam Xu, is there something wrong with what I said?"
Xu Miaomiao shook her head, looked at the man and said, "No, boss, you are right, but I also think that I reported them, which is obviously a good thing. But who knew that the private salt dealer would retaliate against me and secretly put some salt in my shop, intending to frame me. He also shot arrows into our store and said something about reincarnation, which really scared everyone in my store."
The man widened his eyes in surprise when he heard this. He looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "There is such a thing. I never thought that in the capital, under the feet of the emperor, such a person would come out to harm others. I just don't know how Madam Xu is going to solve it now?"
Xu Miaomiao looked at the man, smiled, picked up the teacup beside her, took a sip, looked at the man and continued, "Shopkeeper, what else can I do? Now that person can't be found, I can only swallow this loss and let it go. I just hope that the person who sells private salt in the future will not embarrass us again because we are all women of the same family."
The man nodded when he heard this, and immediately picked up the teapot beside him and poured some water into Xu Miaomiao's cup. Ami said flatteringly, "Madam Xu is right, but think about it, the people who sell private salt are always vicious and cunning. Since you have offended them, I'm sure they won't let you go easily. I'm afraid you have to be careful in the future."
"Actually, there is another way." Xu Miaomiao straightened his clothes, straightened his body, and spoke calmly.
"What?" The man asked when he heard this.
Xu Miaomiao looked at him coldly and said, "Report to the police."
