The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 516 The Store Can Be Saved

Mrs. Yun looked at Yun Song with an expression that said, "Son, what a joke!"

Yun Song: “…”

If Baozhu wanted to hire a maid or a strong servant in Taichen Courtyard, she could just tell Shangchun. But if she wanted a guard in Meng Mansion, she still had to report to Shangshi.

Shang asked Meng Shisan why he wanted to guard the courtyard and learned that it was to fight for justice. She confirmed with Baozhu again and again that Meng Shisan was not present and far away from any trouble, and only then did she approve Baozhu's request.

Her only meaning was that her eldest niece could help but she must not be hurt.

When Baozhu and a few bodyguards arrived at the Lu family's noodle shop, the sun had not yet set, and there was still some time left before the three-day deadline mentioned by the noodle shop next door, so they arrived in time.

Lu Man, the owner of Lu's Noodles, and his nephew Lu Cheng looked at each other in bewilderment.

After a long while, Lu Man finally approached the last table and said, "This girl..."

Baozhu immediately stood up and said, "Shopkeeper, please don't be polite. Just call me Baozhu. They are all guards of our Meng Mansion. We came here to sit down under the orders of the young lady. If anyone dares to come into the shop and cause trouble, the shopkeeper has nothing to fear. We are here to ensure that the noodles of the Lu family are safe and sound."

Lian Baozhu stood up, and the guards who were sitting around the table also stood up.

They were all tall and strong, exuding a masculine aura that made them look tough and masculine, which stunned Lu Man.

The guests at several tables in the restaurant were also stunned.

Fortunately, the guards quickly sat back down at Baozhu's signal, otherwise, before the people from the noodle shop next door could come and cause trouble, their momentum might have scared away several tables of regular customers in the restaurant.

Seeing this, Lu Cheng came over and whispered to Lu Man: "Uncle, you still don't admit that you have a relationship!"

Lu Man looked back at Lu Cheng blankly. Under Lu Cheng's winking and admiring gaze, he turned back and asked Baozhu: "Miss Baozhu, may I ask which Meng family your mansion belongs to?"

Lu Cheng also looked at Baozhu expectantly. He also wanted to know which Meng Mansion it was.

There are quite a few mansions with the surname Meng in the capital, and when it comes to power, there are huge differences among them!
"My young lady's grandfather is Tianguan, the current head of the Ministry of Personnel." Baozhu skillfully called out Meng Tianguan's name.

Needless to say, as long as Meng Tianguan is mentioned, everyone can immediately guess which Meng Mansion it is.

“Tianguan?” Lu Man was still reacting.

Lu Cheng took a deep breath and said, "It's Meng Tianguan's residence!"

"That's right." Baozhu smiled.

Lu Cheng bowed deeply, crossed his arms and said, "Miss Baozhu and all the heroes, enjoy your meal. There is plenty of noodles and tea in our store!"

"Thank you." Baozhu sat back on the bench.

Lu Cheng then pulled Lu Man back to the narrow kitchen. Lu Man was confused and let him be pulled. The uncle and nephew came to the kitchen.

"Uncle! Now our store is saved!" Lu Cheng's face was rosy, and he was so happy as if he had just beaten up all the people in the noodle shop next door.

Lu Man's reaction was a little slow, but he had been running this noodle shop in the capital for so many years and had spent half his life selling noodles here. Jifei Street was one of the streets with the most noble and wealthy people. Even if his brain was not very good, he had reacted by now.

After realizing what was happening, he was speechless for a long time. His mind kept echoing with his nephew's words: "Uncle, you still don't admit that you have a relationship!"

Is he related?

No, he's OK.

Even if he had connections, it would be impossible for him to establish connections with the Meng family outside the Eastern Palace. He really didn't have the ability to do so.

If he had this ability, why would he have allowed that black-hearted bastard from the noodle shop next door to bully him for so long?

Absolutely not!

Lu Man then worked in the kitchen, and from time to time he would pause and look at Baozhu and the guards at the last table outside, which was the table closest to the kitchen.

As he looked at it, his heart slowly calmed down.

No matter how this relationship was established, my nephew is right. Now this century-old store passed down from their ancestors can finally be saved!
Once he figured it out, he kneaded the dough with even more force.

Lu Cheng came out from the back kitchen, feeling very elated. He was very attentive to Baozhu and the guards' table.

Meng Shisan didn't know the situation of the Lu family's noodles. After she handed the matter to Baozhu, she didn't think about it anymore.

Baozhu's ability is enough to take care of the Lu family's noodles business.

Chen Sheng watched Baozhu bring out a few guards from the Meng Mansion, and then watched Baozhu and the guards return to Jifei Street. He originally thought they were going back to Quexian Tower, but unexpectedly they went into Lu's Noodles, a small noodle shop.

After staring outside the store for a while, he returned to Quexianlou, the Man Han Banquet, to report.

Dong Kuan was still there, still sitting alone in the lobby, drinking tea and eating snacks, looking leisurely.

Chen Sheng approached and said, "Sir, I'm back. After Baozhu left here, she first went back to Meng's house, brought out a few guards, and returned to this street directly, but did not return here, but went straight to Lu's Noodles. After entering Lu's Noodles, Baozhu and a few guards sat down at the last table. The shopkeeper seemed to recognize Baozhu and even said a few words to her. Later, the shopkeeper went back to the kitchen to work. The waiters came and went in the shop, and were very attentive to Baozhu, asking if she wanted more tea, and if she wanted to eat noodles..."

Dong Kuan saw that Shen Sheng's throat was a little hoarse, so he poured a cup of tea and handed it to Shen Sheng.

Chen Sheng took the teacup and drank the tea in two gulps. "Thank you, sir. I also found out that the reason why Baozhu brought the Meng family guards to stay in the Lu family noodle shop was because the noodle shop next door wanted to bully the Lu family noodle shop and wanted to take over the Lu family noodle shop and merge the two shops into one. The Lu family noodle shop did not agree, saying that it was a century-old shop passed down from their ancestors and could not be sold no matter how high the price was. The noodle shop next door relied on the fact that the owner was a relative of Minister Ming, so it wanted to forcefully buy the Lu family noodle shop at a low price and gave the Lu family noodle shop a three-day deadline. Today is the last day. If the Lu family noodle shop still refuses to sell the old shop passed down from their ancestors by the time the lights are turned on, the noodle shop next door will deal with the Lu family noodle shop."

"How to clean up?" Dong Kuan asked.

Chen Sheng said carefully, "Before, the noodle shop next door ran into trouble, so they harmed the daughter of the noodle shop owner of the Lu family. As a result, the daughter of the noodle shop owner, who had already been engaged, was cancelled by the man. This time, they gave the shop owner another three days to warn him that if he didn't know what was good for him, not only would the daughter of the shop owner suffer, but also his son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren would be in trouble!"

Dong Kuan frowned: "Has the owner of Lu's Noodle Shop ever thought of suing the authorities?"

"Maybe he thought about it, but when he thought about the fact that the owner of the noodle shop next door is the cousin of Minister Ming, he might have backed off and never actually went to the Beijing government to file a complaint." Chen Sheng could actually understand the thoughts of the owner of Lu's noodle shop.

Since ancient times, people have not fought with officials.

What's more, that official was a Shangshu.

If the people just think about it that way, how could they not be terrified and dare to sue the officials?
