"I think this Miss Su is really pretty. No wonder her business is so successful. How do you say that?"
“A feast for the eyes!”
"Ah, yes, beauty is a feast to the eyes. Madam Su's appearance makes me very hungry. No wonder I feel that this herbal jelly honey becomes sweeter the more I eat it. It turns out it's because Madam Su is so sweet~"
"How do you know if it's sweet? Have you tasted it?"
"I would like to try it, but I'm not familiar with them. We're not from the same village, so I don't have such a good opportunity. It would be better if I were from the same village. I could eat the herbal jelly and taste—"
The man deliberately dragged out the last syllable, and then looked at Su Liuer unscrupulously.
The meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Mrs. Wang was caught by Su Liuer and couldn't move forward. She said angrily, "These two bastards are clearly plotting against you!"
"Mother-in-law, being angry is bad for your health. We are in business and can't control what others say. Just pretend you didn't hear it." Su Liuer was calm and composed, not angry at all, and even had a smile on her face.
Mrs. Wang didn't believe that Su Liu'er was such a good-tempered person. She felt that she must have some hidden tricks.
"Okay, then just pretend you didn't hear it."
Su Liuer nodded. She turned her head to look at Zhu Hongan who was sitting next to her and learning to read seriously. Fortunately, her son was only three years old and could not understand what the two were saying.
"Did she smile at us?"
"That's right! She's smiling at us. Hahaha, she's really a feast for the eyes, very sweet!"
"Maybe we can have a chance to try it too?"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Obscene laughter echoed in the restaurant. Su Liuer withdrew her gaze and continued to sell grass jelly honey. Seeing her like this, the two men did not continue. After eating the grass jelly honey, they left. One of them even threw a wink at Su Liuer as he left, thinking he was looking handsome.
"Follow them two and see who they contact and what they do." Su Liuer went out and gave Dali an order before returning to the restaurant to continue doing business.
Not long after, Dali came back.
"Both of them went into the gambling house. I followed them in and took a look. They were just gambling and didn't do anything else."
"Gambling house?" Su Liuer had never seen a gambling house in this town.
"Boss, you may not know this, but this gambling house is quite hidden. I asked Xiao Li to keep an eye on it."
Su Liuer nodded, Dali was quite smart in his work.
"I don't have anything to do here. You can go too. If you find anything, tell me immediately."
"Okay, boss."
Back at the restaurant, Mrs. Wang frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Not yet." Su Liuer smiled. She suspected that the two people just now were instructed to come and cause trouble, but now she couldn't guess who wanted to ruin her reputation.
There were people in Shangyou Village who had grudges against her or didn't want her to have a good life, and there were already several in the Zhu family alone.
There is also the farmer's unreasonable daughter-in-law. Many people are jealous of her making money selling herbal honey. It's really hard to guess.
We can only wait and see if Dali and Xiaoli can find some clues.

Inside the gambling house.
Ying Li moved closer to the two men.
But after listening for a long time, I didn't hear the two men mention Su Liuer. They were just addicted to gambling. However, they had bad luck and lost all their money soon.
The two men who lost all their money had no way to turn the tables and could only leave. Otherwise, if they couldn't come up with the money, they would be beaten and kicked out by the gambling house.
When Ying Li came back, he happened to see the two men coming out of the gambling house from a distance. He winked at Ying Li who followed him out, and Ying Li continued to follow him. Ying Li then took another route to the exit of the alley where the two men were walking.
