Chapter 53

Aunt Lin had a heartbroken expression on her face, but she shook her head.

On the contrary, Qiu Li, who was sent by Rong Lanxue to help Mrs. Lin in the workshop, answered, "I know, it's the fault of the Li family in the east of the city!"

As soon as she said these words, she stole the limelight from Mrs. Lin, which made Mrs. Lin very unsatisfactory.Aunt Lin was naturally unhappy, so she gave her a gouging look.

Qiuli was timid, so after being frightened, she started to mumble.Rong Lanxue hurriedly encouraged her: "What do you know, tell me quickly, whether you are right or wrong, I will reward you."

Only then did Qiuli gather her courage, and continued: "In addition to the shoe store, the Li family also has a workshop, which is much larger than ours. In order to seize business, they encouraged our customers to change their shoes, and promised that all losses will be waived." The Li family will bear it, and the purchase price of the shoes will be [-]% lower than ours."

Such favorable conditions?No wonder those guests would rather break the contract than vote for the Li family.Rong Lanxue frowned and remained silent.

Aunt Lin curled her lips when she saw Qiuli speak clearly and logically, and questioned, "How did you know such a confidential matter?"

Qiuli said shyly: "A maid in their family and I exchange handkerchiefs..."

Mrs. Lin sarcastically said: "It turned out that I met the maid of the Li family, but who knows if you are the spy they sent to scare you?"

Rong Lanxue glanced at Aunt Lin, and said calmly, "It seems that you, Aunt Lin, started the matter of the Li family."

Aunt Lin was speechless.

When Rong Lanxue first built this workshop, there was no one available to take it in. Then through a dental dealer, she invited the experienced Mrs. Lin to sit in it, but now it seems that she is not the most suitable candidate.Fortunately, she was well prepared and sent Qiuli here early, firstly to let her secretly learn management skills, and secondly to play a supervisory role for Mrs. Lin.Maybe, when the matter is over this time, it's time to ask Aunt Lin to go back.

As she thought about it, she tapped on the armrest of the chair. Seeing her, Qiu Li knew that she was restless, and couldn't help complaining to the Li family: "It's really dishonest to be a human being. In order to grab business, this kind of despicable tricks are used."

Rong Lanxue shook her head lightly, the business of Li's shoe store is not comparable to that of her small workshop, they don't need to spend so much trouble.I'm afraid the real reason is that the Li family knew that she would not agree to this marriage, so they wanted to use business to force her to marry.However, what is so good about her that she deserves such a mobilization from the Li family?This is really puzzling.

"What should we do?" Qiuli asked anxiously.

Mrs. Lin was also in a panic: "Although they paid the deposit, it's such a great idea. It's not even enough to pay the girls' wages. Besides, they ordered a lot of goods, and those shoes piled up in piles. What should we do? Our workshop , shouldn’t it close down?”

Rong Lanxue looked at her, and suddenly understood something, smiled coldly, and said to Qiuli: "Go and invite Qin Yaji, and say that I want to return Aunt Lin."

Mrs. Lin was shocked when she heard the words. Although she had divorced a long time ago, otherwise she would not have taken the money from the Li family and tried her best to cause the loss of customers. There are usually three ways for workers to leave their jobs. The best one is to fire their employers.The second is to be dismissed by the employer. In doing so, the initiative becomes passive, and it is not as respectable as the first one. However, because it is a private agreement between the employer and the employer, the reason for the dismissal is not known to everyone. Find a job again. Come on, it's not too easy.And being returned to the tooth dealer refers to a situation where the employer is extremely dissatisfied with the employee, tearing up his face and asking the tooth dealer to return the security deposit. In fact, the security deposit is not all small, it is just a symbolic, important thing. As long as this kind of thing happens, Man Linjiang County will know that Mrs. Lin was forcibly fired, which will make her lose face, and it will be difficult for her to find a good job in the future.

Aunt Lin looked at Rong Lanxue's calm and plain face, and suddenly felt fear in her heart, but the arrogance of her many years of work made her unable to lose face, so she went to beg a little girl in her teens, so she thought bitterly, anyway With Li's shop, why would she worry about not being able to find something to do, why should she stay in such a palm-sized workshop with a shy face.

Her silence made the dismissal extremely simple, and soon, Qin Yaqi rushed over, and after persuading Rong Lanxue to no avail, he paid a deposit and took Aunt Lin away.

After dealing with the traitor, Lan Xue's mood was not much better. The Li family had a lot of money and power, and it was as easy as pie to bring down her small workshop. Even without Aunt Lin, their progress would not be delayed.Although, she could also ask Jiang Shi to support her, but after thinking about it, she gave up. Competition among peers is normal, even if Jiang Shi is hired, what can she do?It's just that I owe double favors for no reason.

But it is impossible for the Li family to convince her.Rong Lanxue pondered for a moment, and immediately made a decision, ordering Qiuli to move all the returned shoes to her shoe shop to sell, and advertised that those who purchased shoes reached a certain amount, and could get a designated style of shoes as gifts a pair.

Qiuli had never heard of such a novel way of promotion, so she arranged it dubiously.

Rong Lanxue was very confident in herself, she didn't believe that the Li family could influence the business and the customers?Besides, his Li family has always followed the high-end route, which is completely inconsistent with the low-end and mid-end route of her workshop. It may not be a good thing that they rashly snatched her business.When she thought that the Li family's workshop, which only made high-end shoes, would suddenly change to low-end and mid-end shoes in large quantities, Rong Lanxue's lips could not help but smile.

After dealing with the matter, she walked around the workshop again, and was about to go home, but saw Jiang Zhiyuan walking in from outside.She hurried forward to meet her and said hello: "You came to look at the shoes? Why don't you go to the store?"

Jiang Zhiyuan shook his head: "I'm here to find you."

Rong Lanxue remembered the trick Lianxiang and Yupan used yesterday, her face turned red, she hurriedly let him into the lounge, and asked, "Why did you come to me?"

Jiang Zhiyuan sat across from her, blushing even on his face, and said in a low voice: "Last night, I mentioned our marriage to my old man..."

"Ah?" Rong Lanxue's face turned even redder, "Then...then what did he say?"

Jiang Zhiyuan smiled wryly, shook his head helplessly, and said, "The old man disagrees..."

Jiang's re-entering the Rong's house was already a helpless move, and it was reasonable for Mrs. Jiang's reluctance to marry the Rong's family again, and it was not difficult to understand.Rong Lanxue nodded, but her heart was a little bit bitter - people are like this, if she is allowed to marry Jiang Zhiyuan smoothly, maybe she will hesitate, thinking that she doesn't know him enough.But after being rejected, I felt a bad feeling in my heart.

Jiang Zhiyuan sighed, and said: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid that I can only make my own decisions when I get the title on the gold list." After he finished speaking, he looked at Rong Lanxue fixedly and asked, "Xue'er, what are you doing?" Would you like to wait for me?"

He had already learned the reason from Lianxiang and Yupan, but why did he still ask her?Rong Lanxue suddenly got a little angry, and said: "Don't you understand? It's not that I don't want to wait, but I really can't wait! You can't decide your own marriage, isn't it the same for me? They have already gone to the door, specifying that they want me to marry. No, in order to force me, they even resorted to low-handed tactics to seize my business."

"What? They're so despicable?" Jiang Zhiyuan was startled, but he calmed down again, and said, "I've already gone to inquire. The Li family went to your house to propose a marriage, but your father and wife haven't agreed yet. There is still room for maneuver.”

Rong Lanxue showed a sad face: "I also know that there is still room for maneuver, but how should I maneuver?"

Jiang Zhiyuan stood up, paced back and forth in the room, and finally stopped abruptly, as if he had made up his mind, and said to Rong Lanxue: "Xue'er, didn't you succeed when you returned the marriage last time? Or do you do it like last time?"

Rong Lanxue stared at him fiercely, seemingly in disbelief.The last time she threatened Tian Cheng with death, Jiang Zhiyuan knew clearly about her neck injury, and even went to the door to deliver the medicine himself afterwards.Now he actually asked her to commit suicide again?
Jiang Zhiyuan sensed Rong Lanxue's surprise and anger, and quickly explained: "Xue'er, just put on a show, don't hurt yourself again. I know it's embarrassing for you, but I can't think of anything else. It's a good idea."

Needless to say, Rong Lanxue also knew that this was just a show, and she was determined not to really commit suicide, but even so, hearing such words from him made her feel very uncomfortable.Perhaps, it is because the love is not deep enough.Rong Lanxue thought so.

Jiang Zhiyuan's face was full of shame: "Xue'er, I really had no choice but to come up with such a bad plan. In a few days, I will leave for the provincial government to prepare for the exam. Otherwise, I will definitely choose to kneel down at my house." In front of the door of the old lady's room, I beg him to marry you for me, instead of letting you face it alone..."

"Are you going to rush for the exam?" When Rong Lanxue heard the news, she felt that Jiang Zhiyuan had serious business to do, the situation forced her, and she didn't deliberately avoid it, so the resentment in her heart calmed down a little.

Jiang Zhiyuan nodded and said: "Several masters in Linjiang County have read my article, and they all said that I am promising in the scientific examination this year. Just wait for my good news. I will definitely bring Fengguanxiapei to marry you."

"I believe you. But, is there no other good way?" Rong Lanxue really didn't want to go through the pain of the last time, "You don't know, my father is a stubborn person, Pretentious suicide can't impress him at all. Even if I cut my neck to bleed last time, he was still indifferent. Later, it was because your aunt Jiang returned to Rong's mansion. Then I attached myself to the Li family, and I agreed to withdraw from the marriage."

When Jiang Zhiyuan heard this, he was stunned: "So, forcing your father to death won't work at all?"

Rong Lanxue nodded.

Jiang Zhiyuan looked sad, and he looked up to the sky and sighed: "Are you and I really not destined?"

Rong Lanxue said to Jiang Zhiyuan: "Perhaps you can try to kneel in front of your old man and threaten him. If he doesn't propose marriage for you, you won't rush for the exam."

"It's a big matter to catch up with Kaoz. There can't be any mistakes. How can we make fun of it?" Jiang Zhiyuan blurted out without even thinking about it.

Rong Lanxue was stunned.

Jiang Zhiyuan himself was also stunned.Embarrassed for a long time, she hastily explained: "Xue'er..."

But Rong Lanxue didn't want to listen anymore, she waved her hands wearily, and went out to board the car.

The carriage wheels rolled over the streets paved with bluestone slabs, and the shops on both sides were still busy with people coming and going, but the falling leaves beside the road still made people feel the boundless coolness.Rong Lanxue hugged her arms tightly and curled up in a corner of the carriage, she had no complaints or disappointments in her heart, just nothing.

What she asked for did not include marriage at all. She only hoped to have a house of her own, earn money with both hands, live freely and carefree. Not force.Just such a small wish, in today's view, is also a luxury.As long as there is the Rong family, she will not be able to make decisions on her own.And although she hated all of this, in order to survive, she had to depend on the Rong family. Such a contradiction made her hate herself a little.
