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

Chapter 96 Apology
Zhou Wangshu came to the kitchen and saw Su Yaoguang and Jia Chunni bringing out the steamed buns and dumplings, so he went forward to help.

Su Yaoguang saw him and looked at his expression: "It seems that he had a good rest and looks good."

Zhou Wangshu had no memory of last night and asked her, "How did I get back?"

"How else could it come back? Of course I carried it back." Su Yaoguang placed the steamed buns and steamed buns on the table and began to serve the porridge.

Zhou Wangshu looked at himself, then at Su Yaoguang: "You carry me?"

"Or you'll carry me?" Su Yaoguang stopped and pinched Zhou Wangshu's cheek. "Do you know how noisy you get when you're drunk? I'm telling you, you're not allowed to drink a single sip from now on, okay?"

Zhou Wangshu brushed her hand away, frowned and tried hard to recall what happened last night, but his mind was blank and he couldn't remember anything.

Su Yaoguang deliberately teased him, imitating his behavior, holding the bun and said, "Oh, why can the bun talk? My throat hurts so much, am I going to die?"

Zhou Wangshu was stunned. Those fragments suddenly flooded into his mind, like a blockage suddenly cleared. He remembered not only what Su Yaoguang had said, but also what she hadn't said.

——Sister, sister, sister…

——Fifty taels of silver!

——Why did you take my bed away?
Seeing him standing there in a daze, Su Yaoguang waved her hand in front of him. "Are you still awake? Damn, just one sip of wine has made you stupid. Is that wine poisonous?"

Zhou Wangshu fled into the kitchen: "I'll go get the chopsticks."

He can't drink anymore.

If he drinks again next time, he will...

He is just a fool.

He didn't say anything he shouldn't have said last night, did he?

Zhou Wangshu counted his chopsticks while recalling last night's events. If it was just embarrassment, he could just pretend he didn't remember. But if he said something he shouldn't have, then he couldn't stay here.

However, he thought about it for a long time and had no memory of that, so he must not have said it.

"Does it take that long to count the chopsticks for eight people?" Zhang Zhaodi stood beside Zhou Wangshu, looking at him in confusion. "It seems you really can't drink alcohol. Just one sip has turned you into a fool. If you drink a few more, I'm afraid you won't be able to get up for days."

"I suddenly remembered the homework assigned by the teacher and was stunned for a moment." Zhou Wangshu said embarrassedly.

"If you're busy, just do your thing. We're in the store, so you don't need any help."

"I'm not busy. I also want to do something for the family."

Zhang Zhaodi became even more satisfied with Zhou Wangshu.

If only I were two years older, I could have held the wedding banquet.

It was still early, so they didn't need to open so early. After all, most of the people who came to the early market were poor families or businessmen, and their customers usually didn't come so early.

However, they also have to make some preparations in advance. First, they have to fill their stomachs, then clean the inside and outside, and then they have to arrange the goods, replenish the goods, and even count and calculate the goods.

Zhou Wangshu had been off for three days and had just returned yesterday, so he wasn't familiar with the shop's operations yet. After spending a few hours getting acquainted with the shop, he took on the role of sales assistant today, attracting quite a few young female customers. Today's customer flow was indeed half that of yesterday's. Yesterday, there were more customers buying skincare products, but today, most of them were trying out makeup. If the results were positive, they'd inevitably buy a cosmetic item or two.

Su Yaoguang kept Jia Chunni by her side and taught her how to put on makeup for customers.

After seeing off the last makeup customer, Zhang Zhaodi came over and said, "Judging from today's situation, we'll leave two people in the shop to watch over it, and the others will go to the backyard to continue making the next batch of goods. If we're short-handed and can't handle it, just give a shout and everyone will be in the backyard ready to help at any time."

"After I teach Chunni how to put on makeup, I'll leave the store to you and Chunni. My uncle will help with the bookkeeping, and Jing'er and I will take my second and third aunts to the backyard to rush the next batch of goods. If we still don't have enough manpower, we can hire a few more people." Su Yaoguang said, "We've just opened the store, so let's observe first and don't rush to hire anyone."

"Yaoguang, I'll tell the teacher to come home every day from now on, okay?" Zhou Wangshu said, "That way I can help with the work at night."

"We've moved to the city now, so you can definitely come home and live here. However, helping with the chores is secondary. The main thing is that it's more lively and popular here. But doesn't your academy forbid you from going out?"

"The dean will agree," Zhou Wangshu said. "I'll talk to him when we get back to the academy."

If he could come and go freely, he wouldn't be restricted by the academy's rules and regulations, and it would be more convenient for him to enter and exit the dance studio.

Early in the morning of the third day.

Knock, knock! Knock, knock! Someone is knocking on the door in the front yard.

Several people who were busy in the backyard heard the sound and rushed to the front yard.

There was someone in the front yard, but they were taking inventory with the door closed. Then they heard someone knocking on the door and immediately opened it.

When Su Yaoguang arrived, he saw Zhang Pandi talking to the person who knocked on the door. Zhang Pandi turned around and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Su Yaoguang and others coming over.

"He said he was the owner of Jinlefang and came to look for Yaoguang."

Su Yaoguang and Jia Chunni met the owner of Jinlefang.

The shopkeeper first saluted Su Yaoguang and said, "This must be the young master of Taoyaofang. I am the shopkeeper of Jinlefang. Today I have brought this useless second steward to apologize to the young master. I hope the young master will be magnanimous and spare him this time."

Su Yaoguang said to Jiang Jing and Zhou Wangshu beside them, "Open the door and invite the owner of Jinlefang in."

Jiang Jing and Zhou Wangshu opened all the doors.

As soon as the door opened, many people looked over.

The shopkeeper of Jinlefang not only brought a few assistants with him, but they also brought a fat, big-eared man with them. Upon closer inspection, it was the same villain who had disguised himself as a traveling merchant to deceive her.

The commotion here was so loud that everyone passing by saw it. However, not everyone knew about the feud between the two families. Therefore, when they saw this situation, they all speculated what had happened.

So, the streets began to replay the previous version of the story, but compared to the previous version, it seemed to have added some new content.

"I heard that Jinlefang was jealous of Taoyaofang's craftsmanship and hired people to sabotage Taoyaofang's business, but they were defeated by Taoyaofang instead. Taoyaofang must have a backer, otherwise how could a few women dare to open such a large shop, and have such good business right after opening?"

"I heard that Jinlefang bought Taoyaofang's goods and deceived customers by saying they were new products. When they were found out, they lost face and a feud between the two families began. Regardless, it's still a bit despicable for Jinlefang to hire someone to frame them."
