Chapter 42 The Turn of the Situation
The woman took a deep breath and plucked up the courage to say, "He is not the father of my child. He, he just lives next door to my house. The child's father passed away two years ago. He has been coming here often. At first, he was just like other villagers. I will bring some food for you, but at the end..."
At this point, the woman couldn't help but squat down, cover her face and cry.
After a while, the woman said: "He is a devil. Whenever anything goes wrong, he beats and scolds us. Yesterday, I was pushed to the wall by him yesterday and fainted. I woke up today." , I woke up and found that the child was missing."
The woman couldn't help but hold the child a little tighter, her tears couldn't stop flowing, and her body couldn't help but tremble.
"How dare you talk nonsense!!" The man glared at the woman fiercely.
Shen Zhao had a cold face and struck out with a palm. The man was hit so hard that he became dizzy and couldn't speak.
"Send him to the official!" someone in the crowd shouted.
"Yes! Such scum should be locked up!!"
"It's best to let him stay in there for the rest of his life! Don't come out to harm other innocent people again."
The man was still dazed and could not react at all.
Shen Zhao handed the man to Xuan Yu and said quietly: "Then send him to the government. I think the prefect will give justice to the innocent."
"Okay, it's okay. There's nothing serious about your child. Just have a good rest for two days." Sheng Qingyuan comforted the woman with a warm voice.
"Thank you, Mr. Sheng." The woman said gratefully to Sheng Qingyuan.
"But, but..." After the woman thanked her, a little worry appeared on her face.
Shen Zhao came over and said to the woman: "Don't worry, he has committed many things. At least in the past few years, he will not be able to get out."
Sheng Qingyuan turned her head to look at him, and Shen Zhao gave her a reassuring smile.
The woman bowed to the two of them again, and then took the child home.
About half an hour later, the sentence came out about the man. He poisoned a child, beat others multiple times causing serious injuries, and committed theft. The situation was so bad that he was finally sentenced to twelve years in prison.
After the news came out, Sheng Qingyuan immediately asked someone to tell the woman.
What the woman was worried about just now was that if the man came out of the government soon, he would definitely seek revenge on her, but he was imprisoned for more than ten years. These more than ten years were enough for her to save enough money and move to another place to live. .
"Did you arrange it?" Sheng Qingyuan asked Shen Zhao with a smile.
Shen Zhao admitted frankly: "Yes."
While he sent people to find the woman, he also checked the man's identity and what he had done.
"Did someone instruct him to come today?" Sheng Qingyuan asked.
Shen Zhao said: "Well, I found a sum of money in his home. Given that man's normal situation, he would not be able to save such a large amount of money."
"Can you find out who ordered him?" Sheng Qingyuan continued to ask.
Shen Zhao said: "Zuo Mang. It's just that there is no substantial evidence to prove that he was the one who made people move his hands."
Sheng Qingyuan was not surprised, "After he was rejected, he became angry and took revenge?"
Sheng Qingyuan couldn't help but twitch her lips, "The eye of a needle is bigger than his mind."
Shen Zhao said to Sheng Qingyuan: "You don't have to worry about these things in the future, I will take care of them."
Sheng Qingyuan raised a smile and said, "Okay, then I'll leave it all to you."
"Yeah." Shen Zhao nodded, with a bit of endearment in his eyes.
This incident caused quite a stir today, and it reached the ears of Han Shouli and Meng Kun. The two of them got to know each other, and by the way, they also learned that Sheng Qingyuan's properties had been affected these days.
Meng Kun looked at Han Shouli and said, "Someone is bullying my girl. You can't ignore this matter."
Han Shouli glanced at him and said, "Do you still need to say this? I will definitely help. But let me think about how to help."
Meng Kun glanced at him with disgust and said:
"What else do you need to think about? Is Fushou Academy just a decoration? The academy has not been renovated in recent years, and now it is time to replace it with new things."
Han Shouli was stunned for a moment, "You mean, go to the girl's shop to buy something and then put it in the academy?"
Meng Kun nodded, "This money should be nothing to the academy."
Han Shouli said quietly: "I have to calculate this carefully."
Meng Kun continued: "Whatever, it's decided like this! Also, just replacing some basic facilities is not enough. Our Fushou Academy is the largest academy in Fushou City, and it is not bad at all even compared with the academies in the capital. , so I also need some more expensive ornaments, bamboo carvings and the like are very good."
Han Shouli: "…………"
He felt that Fu Shou Academy's small treasury might not be able to support it.
Seeing that Han Shouli was still hesitant, Meng Kun immediately slapped the table and said, "If you don't agree, I will go directly to pick you up, as well as the academy's warehouse, and send them to the girl!"
Han Shouli: ".........can you pay attention to your own identity? You are also the master of His Highness King Jing now. Can you pay attention to your image?"
Meng Kun slapped the table directly, "Just give me an accurate answer, should you do this or not?!"
Han Shouli: "...can I still choose not to respond?"
Meng Kun snorted, "You know what I mean."
Since the man made such a scene in Yixintang, not only could he not damage the reputation of Yixintang, but he even helped to improve the reputation of Yixintang. More people in Fushou City knew that there was such a conscientious doctor. Museum.
After Zuo Mang learned of the result, he was so angry that he smashed a bunch of things at home.
"One trouble is nothing. I don't believe that she can be so lucky every time!" Zuo Mang's eyes were cold and he gritted his teeth and ordered: "And those two workshops of hers, if anyone else wants to cooperate with her, If I want to go buy something from her, she just won’t get along with me!”
Lin Shuang quickly conveyed Zuo Mang's meaning.
For a time, the business of Zhushanfang and Zhuxinfang became increasingly cold.
The situation in Tianxiang Tower is slightly better, but it is also much colder than before.
Zuo Mang deliberately "passed by" Zhushanfang and Zhuxinfang, and when he saw how empty they were, the smile on his lips became more and more proud.
He believes that not long after, these shops in Shengqingyuan will all close down!
Without money, life is miserable. Let’s see if she can still say those ambitious words!
Just when Zuo Mang was feeling proud, he saw several well-dressed people walking into Zhushanfang. As soon as he entered the door, he raised his voice and said, "Is your shopkeeper here? We would like to order a batch of bamboo tables, bamboo chairs, and other items." Some bamboo products."
The waiter immediately happily welcomed the people in, "Guys, please wait a moment, I'm going to invite our shopkeeper."
A few people nodded lightly, looked at various things in the room, and said from time to time: "This seems to be suitable for the academy."
"And these, the ones in the academy are almost worn out, it's time to replace them with new ones."
"Hey, look at this umbrella, why is it so big? However, it seems to transmit light well. If it is placed outside, it can also block the sun."
"It's very good, let's buy some."
"This set of bedroom supplies seems to be good. It can be used to change the wife's room. The more I look at these, the better they get. It makes me want to get a set for my home."
The people sent by Zuo Mang quickly relayed what these people said to him in real time.
Zuo Mang clenched his fists, his eyes filled with anger, "Who are they?! Don't they know I said you can't buy things from Sheng Qingyuan?!"
Lin Shuang lowered his head slightly and said cautiously: "My subordinates went down and asked, they are from Fushou Academy."
When Zuo Mang heard this, his face became even more ugly.
Those old guys from Fu Shou Academy thought so highly of themselves just because they knew a few words and could write a few acid poems that they didn't even take him seriously.
inside.
How could this be so great?
However, there was just a group of people rushing to support and defend him. If anyone dared to do anything to Fushou Academy, these scholars would be like crazy people. No matter what your status, they would still scold you.
After a while, the people in the academy signed a contract with Du Shujun and then went to Zhuxinfang.
Zuo Mang couldn't help but follow them to Zhuxinfang. Watching them picking out bamboo carvings, he couldn't help but complain: Do they think these bamboo carvings are just Chinese cabbage and don't cost money?!
There are so many to choose from, but he still likes some of them!
I’ve picked out the best ones, don’t you know how to leave some for others?!
How could a poor academy have so much money?!
After the people from the academy finished picking them, they specially asked the people from Zhuxinfang to pack them up. The group of people took the bamboo carvings from Zhuxinfang back to the academy in a swaggering manner.
I don’t know if I was so happy with the purchase that I actually chose a relatively long way back to the academy, which saved me a lot of time.
When curious people asked about it, the people in the academy readily admitted their identities and boasted about the things in Zhuxinfang and Zhushanfang.
After hearing this, many people went to Zhuxinfang one after another. If they couldn't afford the bamboo carvings in Zhuxinfang, couldn't they still afford it in Zhushanfang?
At lunch time, many scholars came out of the academy, and they all came to Tianxiang Tower at the same time.
Some people couldn't help but ask: "Why do you all go to Tianxianglou to eat? Isn't Xianpinlou better these days?"
The scholar snorted, "When it comes to taste, Tianxiang Tower is naturally better. Moreover, the environment of Tianxiang Tower is so nice. After the meal, we can order a pot of tea and ask for advice together."
"Hurry up, hurry up, if you go late, there won't be a place."
The common people who had never eaten at Tianxianglou were even more puzzled when they looked at the anxious scholars, and couldn't help but murmured: "Is it really so delicious?"
A passing scholar happened to hear this question and immediately said: "Of course it's delicious. The masters in our academy are notoriously picky about what they eat. That's why every master is thinner than the other, but these...
Tian noticed that they all seemed to be a little rounder, and after asking around, he found out that they had been eating at Tianxiang Tower during this period. Sometimes Tianxiang Tower was too crowded, so they would ask the waiters to send them directly to the academy to eat."
"Can it be delivered to your home?" the people were surprised.
The scholar looked unusual and strange, "This is the characteristic of Tianxianglou. If you don't want to eat out and want to eat at home, you can have it delivered to your home. The delivery fee is not expensive and only requires a little money.
If you order a lot of food, you don’t even need to pay the delivery fee and it will be delivered directly to your home for free.”
The scholar's voice was loud and immediately attracted many people nearby.
Even the masters at Fu Shou Academy agree that it is delicious. It is definitely a delicacy in the world, and it is so convenient? You have to give it a try.
With the cooperation of the masters and scholars of Fushou Academy, the three properties on the bright side of Shengqingyuan have once again restored their former glory.
Some businessmen who were originally in awe of scholars began to reconsider their cooperation with Zhushanfang.
