Chapter 298: Scolding the Lecher
Chen Hansong cupped his hands and agreed to Qin Huiyin's proposal.
Jiang Qibin said goodbye with a smile and took Chen Hansong to the store to familiarize himself with the environment.
Qin Huiyin called the steward and asked when Jiang Qingnan would be back. The steward said that there was also a problem at the snack shop in the provincial capital, and Jiang Da, the general steward, would not be back so soon. Qin Huiyin understood the situation and asked the steward to do his own thing. However, the steward did not leave in a hurry, but expressed his dissatisfaction.
"The workshop is an important confidential place. Only the guys who have signed the confidentiality agreement can enter. Manager Jiang brought outsiders to watch, which should be against our rules. Fortunately, the boss is here today, so they didn't stay too long. If the boss wasn't here, I'm afraid the workshop would be in chaos."
Qin Huiyin understood the manager's concerns, and that was why she had just transferred Chen Hansong to the sales department. The workshop was full of old, weak, women and children, and these old, weak, women and children had all received favors from Song Ruize. Everyone signed a contract to promise not to disclose the recipe or betray Song Ruize. Even if the workshop was short of people, they would select supplies from Song Ruize's trusted family members, and never recruit people from outside. The person brought by Jiang Qibin was an outsider to them and should not be brought in here.
"If this happens again, just push the person out. If they don't agree, just say it's me who said that the workshop doesn't accept outsiders."
"If it was anyone else, I would definitely not be polite. The one who brought the people here today is Manager Jiang, he is a trusted subordinate of Mr. Song, so..."
"No matter who the trusted subordinate is, does he have to pass the test of me as the boss? Just let the other party come to me, and I will be the bad guy."
Early the next morning, Qin Huiyin and Xia Ruwan took a carriage to the provincial capital for a banquet.
I was going to take Tang Luwu with me, and I had packed my luggage, but Tang Luwu caught a cold. Now I left her in the store to rest. After all, there are still many opportunities, but I only have one body, so I have to take good care of it.
Not long after the carriage left the city, the sound of horse hooves was heard from outside.
The maid Shuhui raised the curtain and looked outside. When she saw who the person on horseback was, she said to Xia Ruwan, "Miss, it's the young master of several other shops."
Before Xia Ruwan could say anything, one of the young masters spoke up, speaking in a nonchalant, frivolous and dissolute manner.
"I was wondering why I could smell the rich fragrance from such a distance. It turns out that the girls in the carriage are Miss Xia and Miss Qin! Ladies, since we are going to the same place, why don't we travel together? We are a group of grown men traveling together, and it's really boring without any flowers to appreciate!"
The owners of several other shops laughed.
Xia Ruwan looked outside from the car window, her eyes swept over the silent Li Congxiao, and finally stopped at the speaking Dengtuzi.
"I was wondering why your mother pulled me aside yesterday and said she was worried about you, an unfilial son. It turned out that it was because you felt like you had lost your backbone without your mother on this journey. You should have told me earlier. Although I am still young, if you really want to recognize me as your mother, I will recognize you, an ugly son."
"Hahaha..." The several grown men nearby were amused and laughed at the young master surnamed Wang. "Brother Wang, the girl from the Xia family is not the fragrant grass of Baihua Tower, but has thorns. Now she is pricked!"
Young Master Wang sneered, "It's really immoral for a woman to run out and show her face in public instead of staying at home to nurse her child."
"If I were your mother, I would rather come out and show my face to the public than give birth to an ugly, stupid, blind and ignorant son like you after staying at home all day nursing my child."
"Hahaha……"
Young Master Wang was ridiculed by his friends, and he was even more embarrassed. He waved his hand and said to his men, "Pull this woman down. I'm going to teach her a lesson."
Qin Huiyin poked her head out and said with a smile, "Master Wang, you don't think we'll be afraid of you just because we only brought four people with us, do you?"
The young master next to him lowered his voice and reminded, "These four people were hired by Song Ruize from the underworld at a high price. It is said that they were professional killers in the past."
Master Wang felt a chill on his neck.
"Miss Qin is Song Ruize's favorite. Although he is no longer here, he has left many good fighters for her. Brother Wang, forget it."
Young Master Wang sneered and said, "Let's go. Wanhua Tower has a new batch of girls. I'll treat you all. Brothers, you can pick whatever you want."
Several shop owners and young shop owners rode by on horseback.
Li Congxiao's gaze stayed on Xia Ruwan's pink little face. She glared at him fiercely with the corners of her mouth raised.
The group of people did not stop until the horses had run far away and the exquisite and magnificent carriage was out of sight, and then they drove slowly.
"Brother Wang, don't be angry. I heard that Xia Ruwan is going to meet the second son of the Rong family this time. If the meeting is successful, the Xia family will climb up the Rong family's big tree. The Rong family is an imperial merchant and knows many nobles. As long as they casually give the Xia family something, the Xia family's status will probably be higher than ours."
"The Xia family has no men. If Xia Ruwan marries the Rong family with the Xia family, wouldn't that be equivalent to giving her own property to the Rong family for free?" The young master next to her said, "The Rong family got such a large property for free, it's really a great bargain. No wonder they are the royal merchants, look how good they are at calculating. With so many young talents among us, why didn't we think of taking Xia Ruwan in before? This would double our family property."
"I heard that the Rong family would let this second son be their son-in-law."
Li Congxiao lowered his eyes and asked, "What kind of person is this Rong family's second son?"
"I heard that he is handsome, good-looking, gentle and polite. He is a good boy."
Xia Ruwan drank two cups of tea and took a bite of peach blossom pastry.
"This bunch of playboys can't do business with us, so they only talk about men and women. What? Are they noble just because they are men? Without us women, would their men have popped out of stones?"
"You were so brave just now." Qin Huiyin praised him endlessly.
"That's because of your confidence." Xia Ruwan leaned on Qin Huiyin's shoulder. "Your brother really loves you and left you such a good helper."
"I haven't received a reply from him recently, and I don't know how he is doing in the capital. Although my brother is very capable, he is a stranger in the capital, and he has to start all over again. In addition, the capital is a place where the powerful and wealthy gather, and anyone you bump into has a backer. My brother has a tough personality, and I don't know if he will suffer. And my eldest brother, his imperial examination results should be out, and I don't know what his ranking is."
"You don't need to worry about your two brothers, so just take good care of yourself! As long as you take good care of yourself, they will worry less."
"Are you nervous?" Qin Huiyin asked, "This time I'm going to meet the young master of the Rong family. The Rong family is an imperial merchant, and the eldest son of the Rong family is also the chairman. I don't know if it's easy to get along with him."
"I don't care if he's easy to get along with or not. As long as I don't like it, I have plenty of ways to make him dislike me and take the initiative to reject the marriage. Anyway, I don't want to offend anyone."
