Farmer girl swaps husbands: buys a sickly villain and pampers him

Chapter 91 Provoking trouble
All the customers in the store came out, and Zhang Zhaodi and others followed them out and closed the store door to prevent anyone from entering and stealing.

Zhang Zhaodi put her hands on her hips and glared at the man angrily.

"Tell me, when did you buy it? How much did you buy? How much did you spend? We've sold so much stuff, and you're the first one to come and cause trouble. If there's really something wrong with our stuff, why hasn't anyone else come to cause trouble? Don't think anyone will believe you just because you picked up a bottle and framed us. People are smart, and no one will believe your slanderous words."

After Zhang Zhaodi said this, the onlookers calmed down a little.

Yes! Taoyaofang has just opened, but they've already sold a lot of their products. If there really is a problem, it can't be just one person's fault. That's really a bit strange.

Seeing that the people around him believed Zhang Zhaodi's words, the man pointed at the woman's face and said, "Can I really change her face like this?"

"I happen to know some medical skills. I can take her pulse to find out why her face looks like this," Jiang Jing said.

"Yes, let's just treat it as a free consultation. Do you dare to let the female doctor next to us check you out?" Su Yaoguang asked, "If you don't dare, it means you are guilty and don't dare to confront us."

The man opened his mouth, gritted his teeth, and said in an unnatural tone: "Why wouldn't we dare? Of course we dare..."

Oh no, this family is so difficult to deal with. I’m afraid I’m going to be in trouble today.

Jiang Jing walked forward and took the woman's pulse.

The woman looked at the man nervously, and the latter winked at her, telling her not to panic.

Jiang Jing said, "Your rash is caused by using too much low-quality powder. It has nothing to do with the things in our store. Even if the things in our store are cosmetics, they still have the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin."

"You say it doesn't matter, so it doesn't matter? We used the stuff from your store and that's why it became like this. Everyone heard it, and they themselves admitted that they used inferior cosmetics. We only used the stuff from their store, and we bought this inferior cosmetics from their store." The big man took the opportunity to yell loudly.

"The smell on this lady's face is pungent. Our shop can't make that kind of rouge and powder. Since we deny it and you don't believe us, we have no choice but to report it to the authorities," Jiang Jing said. "Yaoguang, just report it directly. We just opened our business, and our reputation is so important. Someone is deliberately causing trouble, obviously wanting to shut down our shop. We can't tolerate such people."

"If the officials find out that it's slander, they will have to compensate us with a lot of money, right?" Zhang Zhaodi asked the onlookers.

"If this is truly slander, each of you will receive thirty lashes of the cane and will be required to compensate you for your losses. If you are truly being wronged, report it directly to the police. There's no need to waste time with them."

Su Yaoguang clapped his hands and cheered: "That's it. Which big brother can help us report it to the authorities? I'm willing to pay for the errand."

The woman said fearfully, "What should I do? I told you this method wouldn't work, and you can't make this kind of money, but you wouldn't listen. If they were so easy to deal with, Manager Chen wouldn't have paid you to help them."

Wang Huanzhi approached the man and said in a low voice, "If you don't want to be beaten, you still have time to leave. But you have to tell us who ordered you to cause trouble. If you tell me, I will give you a suggestion so that you don't have to go to the government office."

"It's the manager of Jinlefang. He said that if we come to cause trouble, he will give us five taels of silver." The woman confessed honestly.

"You bitch, why did you tell him?" The man's face changed drastically when he heard the woman's confession. "Can we afford to offend the people from Jinlefang?" "Well, I don't want to go to the government office and get beaten!" the woman cried. "Because of causing trouble, my face has become like this. If I don't go back and apply medicine quickly, I might really be disfigured."

The man saw that the matter was exposed and that it was useless to continue making a fuss. A cunning look flashed in his eyes: "I can change my words immediately, as long as you give me a little hard work fee, how about two taels of silver?"

"The police are coming." someone shouted.

"Who reported it to the authorities? Even if the boss had someone report it, it happened too quickly. Who has such good legs and feet?"

Su Yaoguang saw Zhou Wangshu coming from the opposite direction and happily went to greet him: "Why are you here?"

"It's a holiday," Zhou Wangshu said. "Isn't that the address you left me? I was there just now. When I saw someone causing trouble, I didn't greet them first, but went to the government office to get someone to come over."

"Not bad, young man, you're quite smart." Su Yaoguang patted Zhou Wangshu on the shoulder and turned to the officers, saying, "Officers, these two are the ones who came to our shop to extort money and slandered our products, ruining our reputation. They seemed to have just revealed that this matter was related to Chen, the manager of Jinlefang. I'm going to report this to the authorities for a detailed investigation."

The people nearby were discussing: "Why is it related to Jinlefang?"

"Jinlefang sells rouge and powder. I heard that after Taoyaofang appeared, Jinlefang's business plummeted. Now they sell less in ten days than in one day before. Are you jealous?"

The man and woman tried to flee, but the police arrived, and they couldn't escape. They both looked as if the sky was about to fall.

The man knelt in front of Zhang Zhaodi and cried, "Sister, please be kind and forgive us. We just saw that your business was doing well and wanted to make some money. We won't dare to do it again!"

"Everyone heard it! This thief admitted that he was deliberately blackmailing us! Our goods are genuine and this would never happen. Everyone must testify for us." Zhang Zhaodi shouted to the people around her, "Today is our store opening day, and we didn't expect to encounter such an unlucky person."

"Mom, you guys take care of the business in the store. I'll go with the officials to take these two people to see the officials and handle this matter." Su Yaoguang said.

"I'll take care of it," Zhou Wangshu said. "The store can't do without you. If you leave, they'll lose their backbone, and today's opening will be a pity. I don't know how to do anything else, so leave these chores to me!"

"Can you?"

"Okay, leave it to me." Zhou Wangshu said.

After Zhou Wangshu and the officers escorted the two troublemakers away, Zhang Yingdi came over and said to Su Yaoguang, "This young husband is quite good. Yaoguang, you have good taste. I heard from the villagers that you didn't choose the scholar named Xiao, but instead bought someone with a good face at the cheapest price. I actually believed it. Now it seems that their eyesight is not very good. Our Yaoguang's eyesight is very good."

Zhang Zhaodi loved hearing people praise Su Yaoguang the most. She used to like hearing people praise Su Yaoguang for his ability, but now she likes hearing them praise Su Yaoguang for his good taste and for choosing a good husband.

"Wangshu is a very smart kid. We sent him to school so that he could learn to read and write and support the family. He's not like other scholars. He usually helps with the chores when he comes home."
