Chapter 54: Furious
If it happened once or twice, she could pretend not to know, but if she continued to do so for a long time, Shen Yuefu was not someone who could swallow her anger.
"Aren't there a lot of people in the village who want this rouge but think it's too expensive? Maybe it was stolen and sold cheaply to those people." Liang Huanxue guessed.
"Then she might as well take it to the city to sell it." Shen Yuefu didn't think that someone as smart as Liu Chunhua would do business at a loss.
"Isn't she lazy?" Liang Huanxue said with a smile.
Everyone in the Liang family knows how lazy Liu Chunhua is.
She would never spend several hours walking back and forth to the county town and back.
"Mom, I will go to the county town with you tomorrow. I want to see Brother Wenxuan." Liang Huanxue originally didn't plan to follow Shen Yuefu to the county town.
But for some reason, she felt uneasy.
I always feel that Liu Chunhua had other purposes in stealing rouge.
It's better not to take it lightly.
"I see you want to ride the ox cart? Have you told your second uncle? You can only go if he allows it, otherwise just go to school obediently." Shen Yuefu scratched her nose lightly.
Liang Huanxue touched her nose and said, "My grades are the best. There is no reason for Second Uncle not to agree."
She immediately went to Liang Yuanwen to ask for leave.
Although he didn't like students missing classes, Liang Yuanwen didn't say anything and agreed since she liked Xue after all.
Liang Huanxue set out with Shen Yuefu early the next morning. In addition to rouge, there were two baskets of rice cakes on the ox cart, which gave off a sweet aroma.
When she arrived at the county town, Shen Yuefu discovered that the place where she used to set up her stall had been occupied by someone else.
There is no problem parking a bullock cart there.
But if you want to go somewhere else, this ox cart will take up space.
After all, the road was not very wide.
This made Shen Yuefu very troubled.
"Mom, why don't we go and ask him if he can give way?" Liang Huanxue took a look and thought that the man seemed easy to talk to.
Shen Yuefu shook her head and said, "I didn't buy that seat, so how could I let someone else give it up?"
She was too embarrassed to ask this, but Liang Huanxue was willing to do so.
She ran over, smiled at the man, and first said that it was not easy to park the ox cart somewhere else, and then said that her mother had always been at this location and she was afraid that the regular customer would not be able to find it.
Then he said he was willing to compensate him and asked him to move to the side.
The man simply couldn't say "no" to Liang Huanxue's lovely face. He looked up and saw Shen Yuefu's ox cart, and it would be difficult to park it somewhere else.
His position is the most suitable.
So I agreed.
Shen Yuefu had not expected that the other party would give up his seat so readily, and she thanked him repeatedly.
"What's the big deal? It's a small matter." After moving his stall away, the uncle helped Shen Yuefu park the ox cart.
Liang Huanxue sat on the ox cart with a piece of rice cake in her hand, intending to serve as a living advertisement here.
People who come to buy rouge can't help but buy one or two pieces with a smile when they smell the aroma of the rice cake.
Soon, the rouge and rice cakes were almost sold out.
But the uneasy feeling in Liang Huanxue's heart did not dissipate.
"If mother knew that so many people like her rice cakes, she would definitely be very happy..." Shen Yuefu looked at the rice cakes with only half a basket left. She was thinking about going back to tell the old lady about it. She was about to be very happy, but then she saw several people walking towards her in a hurry.
It looked like he was coming for her, and judging from his expression, he was definitely not a good person.
"Huanxue, come down quickly." The first thought in Shen Yuefu's mind was to protect her daughter.
She called out, but seeing Huanxue didn't respond, she immediately stood up and carried her down from the ox cart.
Liang Huanxue leaned in Shen Yuefu's arms and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Her intuition is really accurate.
I thought there would be trouble, and trouble really came.
"Sister, did you buy rouge here?" The leading man was burly, with a scar across his face, and looked as ferocious as he could be.
A girl of about sixteen or seventeen followed behind him, covering her face with her sleeves, leaving only her eyes exposed. She looked at him and then nodded.
When the man saw her nod, he waved at the people behind him and shouted, "Smash it!"
"There is really no law anymore."
"It's not impossible to smash the stall, but there must be a reason, right?" Liang Huanxue saw that they stopped and her eyes fell on the woman behind the scarred man.
I guess she was the reason.
Seeing that she was covering her face, something must have happened to her face.
But this rouge is made from flowers in space, so it shouldn't be a problem no matter what your skin type is.
Could it be that Liu Chunhua really did something?
"Reason? What other reason do you need? Look at my sister's face!" The scarred man pushed the woman behind him in front of Liang Huanxue and pulled her hand off forcefully.
The face that was hidden by the sleeve was revealed, and it was covered with dense red rashes, which made people feel uneasy.
"She bought rouge here before, and her face became like this after she used it. What else do you have to say?" The boy with the scar got angry, and his face became even more terrifying.
It can simply be described as ferocious and evil.
Shen Yuefu was frightened and subconsciously wanted Liang Huanxue to come back to her side.
But Liang Huanxue turned around and gave her a reassuring look, then continued to say to the scarred man: "How do you prove it?"
"How do you prove it?" The scarred man was a little confused by her question.
"You said she bought rouge from us. How do you prove that she bought it from us?" Liang Huanxue didn't look panicked at all.
She was an expert in medicine, so she could tell at a glance that the rash on the woman's face was indeed caused by an allergic reaction.
But it has absolutely nothing to do with the rouge they sell.
"You little girl are really funny. Do I have any reason to lie? Look at what has happened to my sister's face?" The scarred man was furious.
But even he could only remain calm and restrained when facing Huanxue.
He was afraid of being laughed at for hitting a little girl who was only a few years old.
"If you can prove that the rouge you bought from me was used improperly, I will certainly take responsibility. But if not, your behavior is fraudulent."
Liang Huanxue saw that he looked so anxious and pale, and he didn't seem to be here to cheat, so his acting skills probably weren't that good.
For him to be so sure, either his sister was lying or she was deceived by someone.
There were many customers who had just bought rouge around the stall, and they were all scared when they saw the woman's face covered with rashes.
But seeing Liang Huanxue's calm and composed look, he felt relieved a lot.
"Sister, you still have some unused rouge, take it out!" The scarred man was very upset after being accused of cheating, and immediately asked his sister to take out the unused rouge.
"Let me see." Liang Huanxue stretched out her little hand.
