Crossing the Homeland

Chapter 228

Xiaoyu and Qian Gui were taken aback for a moment, not knowing how to refute.But Jiang Xiaolian quickly came to her senses and replied: "The shopkeeper is right. But there is one important thing. Once Mrs. Chen speaks out about the shopkeeper's refusal to go to the women's school, it will change. Although I have not been in town for long, But what this Mrs. Chen said is a golden eloquence, and others will not know that it is the shopkeeper who will not go, but will think that even Mrs. Chen thinks that the shopkeeper has a bad reputation."

After being authenticated by a celebrity, things that damage Xia Junyan's reputation will change from folk rumors to official recognition.

Xia Junyan was quite surprised.Jiang Xiaolian is a silent character, so most of the time, even she doesn't know what else this girl thinks about besides working all day. Seeing her talking so much in one breath, she encourages her: "What else do you think about?"

Seeing everyone looking at her, Jiang Xiaolian was not used to it for a while, and became more cautious.After going over the words in his heart, he opened his mouth and said, "Although Mrs. Chen is honorable, she only came to Yun'an Town after all. As the saying goes, a strong dragon can't overwhelm a local snake. With so many ladies joining together, Mrs. Chen must also treat it with caution. Once Mrs. Chen compromises, the shopkeeper will..."

Jiang Xiaolian's brows did not relax. The more she analyzed, the more she felt that Xia Junyan's current situation was very pessimistic.Although the families of these ladies are not high-ranking officials, they have been entrenched in various places in Yun'an Town for several lifetimes.Although the Chen family is respectful, they still have to live in the town, so they have to deal with these ladies' families.For Xia Junyan alone, to offend such a huge force... Jiang Xiaolian really didn't know what they should do.Maybe it's just like what Xiaoyu's elder brother said, we can only avoid it temporarily.Where there is life, there is hope.

The atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly dropped to freezing point, even Qian Gui was a little downcast.In the final analysis, there is still no one in their shopkeeper's family. If there are brothers and sisters in the Xia family, how can someone bully them like this.

Xiaoyu was about to say a few words of comfort, but Xia Junyan still looked relaxed.It seemed that apart from Liu Wu back then, there was no one or anything that made her nervous.

Xia Junyan coughed lightly, breaking the gloomy atmosphere.Showing a reassuring smile: "I just have a point of view. The ladies in the town are not monolithic. They are eager to love their daughters, so they are temporarily blinded by rumors."

Xia Junyan felt that she was not such a failure in being a human being, and could make all the ladies in the town hate her.It was only because the ladies didn't know her well and were misled by some caring people that they made such a fuss.Although it is difficult to find the source of the rumors, if she thinks about who will benefit the most if she leaves Yun'an Town, the mastermind behind this matter can be guessed in close proximity.In this town, there are only two families who have enemies with her—Aunt Liu's, and Zhou Ji's Li Chun'e.

But Li Chun'e didn't have a daughter of the right age to go to a girls' school, which seemed to be in the best interest of the Liu family.But Li Chun'e still owes her money, if she leaves in despair, Li Chun'e will also save the money.

Xia Junyan had already copied a list of all the ladies at the banquet, and Li Chun'e and Liu Shi were both on the list.The ladies from other families had casual acquaintances with her, so compared to her, a stranger who just came to the town, the ladies naturally believed more in what Li Chun'e and Liu Shi, who had known each other for a long time, said.

Xia Junyan felt that she could even imagine the scene at that time.In a casual conversation, Li Chun'e or Liu Shi talked about her who was in charge of the Chen family that day.He also said that she opened a shop as a woman, without caring about anything, and recruited a guy who retired from the gambling house. The handyman he hired recently even provoked the other party's parents.
