Chapter 232 Noisy
Aunt Zhao took the copper coin immediately and said, "Don't you think I'm late? You only saw that I was late, but didn't see that I did a good job."
Liu Xiaoru looked down at the messy work she had done, and finally toughened her attitude: "Aunt Zhao, hiring someone to work is a matter of mutual consent. I gave you an extra day's wages. If you are not satisfied, then return the extra money."
When Aunt Zhao heard this, she put her hands on her hips and said, "Why do you want to take back the money you gave me? This is what I deserve."
"Then what do you want to do?" Liu Xiaoru asked.
Aunt Zhao said confidently: "I want to stay here and I want a pay raise!"
The other three employees were all looking at Aunt Zhao in shock.
But Aunt Zhao had no intention of giving in. Instead, she puffed out her chest and said, "You are a woman, and you run a workshop in this alley. If you don't raise my wages, I will let my whole family come to make trouble for you!"
Aunt Zhao lives near Hongye Lane. There are many men in her family, and they have always been a bully in the neighborhood. When she said this, she was very confident.
Liu Xiaoru's face darkened. There were constant troubles in opening a shop in Guang'an County. She didn't expect that even after coming to the emperor's feet, she still couldn't live in peace.
"You are being dishonest and it is your own fault. I don't care what you think, I will never hire you." Liu Xiaoru was firm in her attitude.
She absolutely cannot keep such a troublemaker.
"Okay, you are so brave, I will send someone to smash your workshop right now!"
Aunt Zhao took the money and ran out.
Niuniu looked worried and said, "Aunt Liu, did I hurt you? If I hadn't said anything, it probably wouldn't have gotten to this point."
Liu Xiaoru naturally would not blame Niuniu, but patted the little girl's head and said, "People like this are bad apples if we keep them. It's okay, I can handle it."
She looked at the other three women working there, gave one of them a silver coin, and said, "Go to the government office and tell them that someone is causing trouble."
The woman took the silver and before she left, she ran into Shopkeeper Luo who came in.
"No need to go to the yamen, just go to Xianyue Tower to call people." Manager Luo instructed his servant as soon as he entered the door.
Xianyuelou is the restaurant he opened. There are many guests there, most of whom are adult men.
Liu Xiaoru saw Manager Luo at this time, with an awkward look on his face, and she asked, "Why don't you go to the government office?"
Manager Luo patiently explained, "The government office has been busy these days, so I'm afraid they don't have time to deal with these little things."
Liu Xiaoru stopped talking.
The Zhao family arrived first. Liu Xiaoru thought she would have to face a whole family, but she didn't expect that there were only four strong men.
Perhaps because they thought four people were enough to deal with a few women, they did not send too many people. When they arrived, they saw Manager Luo who was on high alert and their expressions were slightly stunned.
But soon, they realized that it was just one man, and they still had the upper hand.
"I heard that you don't agree with my mother working for you, and you bully her?"
Aunt Zhao's tall and strong son questioned Liu Xiaoru angrily.
Liu Xiaoru was holding a broom in her hand. She was not afraid of the Zhao family, but repeated the facts.
But if the Zhao family were reasonable, they would not have the nerve to come here and cause trouble.
After just a few words, the two groups were about to start fighting, and Manager Luo hurriedly stopped them.
"Calm down, harmony brings wealth. Let's talk it over nicely." Shopkeeper Luo said with a smile.
Zhao Da didn't rush to take action, but said: "You few outsiders, do you still want to bully us locals? We are born and raised in Beijing. Even if we take the matter to the government office, we are in the right!"
Liu Xiaoru said, "They are just a group of people who want to extort money. Why waste your time talking to them? If you want to fight, just fight. I am not afraid of them." Shopkeeper Luo looked at Liu Xiaoru in surprise and whispered, "Don't be impulsive. Wait for someone to come first."
Liu Xiaoru turned her face away.
Shopkeeper Luo added, "Niuniu is still here. What if someone hurts the child?"
Liu Xiaoru immediately stopped talking and let Manager Luo negotiate with the people in front of him.
Just as a cup of tea passed, the sound of footsteps came from the alley.
Seeing a large group of people coming, the Zhao family was also dumbfounded.
When Shopkeeper Luo saw the newcomer, he felt confident and pulled Zhao Da aside and whispered, "You should know better than me what kind of person your mother is."
Zhao Da Ziran knew that his mother was lazy and gluttonous, but he just couldn't bear to give up this good job.
"My mother works hard..."
Zhao Da had just started to speak when he was interrupted by Manager Luo.
"Don't say these empty words. It's true that you Zhao family members have more people, but we have more people here. If you really want to be stubborn with me, I can just give up the business of Xianyue Tower and send people to confront you here."
"But if you really want to go against us, we will take back the money your mother got after we sue the authorities. You brothers, don't even think about finding a job outside in the future. If you really want to make up your mind, then keep making trouble."
If Manager Luo had said this at the beginning, the Zhao family would naturally not listen, but with so many men coming now, the four of them were obviously no match.
"My mother was also injured. We can't just let it go like this." Zhao Da said with his neck stiff.
Shopkeeper Luo said simply: "Your mother is lazy and still gets paid. Where did she get hurt? Our Shopkeeper Liu didn't say that when you extorted money from her. Since you don't understand what I'm saying, let's have a fight!"
After saying this, Shopkeeper Luo immediately called for people to take action.
Seeing that he was serious, Zhao Da hurriedly said, "No, no, no, let's talk it over! That's not what I meant."
Shopkeeper Luo looked at him coldly.
Zhao Da's fists were hard, but he could not withstand the opponent's number which was several times his own. Seeing that he could not continue to extort money, he changed his previous ferocious attitude and nodded and bowed to Manager Luo.
"I'll take people back now..."
After everyone had left, Shopkeeper Luo waved his hand and asked everyone in Xianyue Tower to leave.
After he entered the workshop, he said to Liu Xiaoru: "For this workshop you opened, either hire a few people or recruit people from a farther place. It is better to know the people who are too close to you well."
Liu Xiaoru didn't say anything.
Shopkeeper Luo realized something was wrong at this moment: "Did I offend you in any way?"
"It's nothing. We are just partners. Are you blaming me by saying these things to me?" Liu Xiaoru asked.
When Shopkeeper Luo heard these somewhat aggressive words, although he didn't understand why, he still asked in a gentle voice: "If you have any dissatisfaction with me, you can just say it directly. With a relationship like ours, what can't be said?"
Liu Xiaoru was unhappy and said, "What's our relationship? We have no relationship at all."
Shopkeeper Luo's face went blank for a moment.
Niu Niu stood aside, tilting her head to look at this one, then that one. The little girl couldn't help but frowning and thinking that the atmosphere between the two people was weird.
