Chapter 174 This father is worse than no father at all
The fish ball shop in Guihuali is incredibly popular in the mornings!
Song Zhenmei and Jin Xueer went to help, and they helped out early in the morning. Gradually, by noon, there were fewer people buying fish balls.
In the afternoon, more and more people started buying taro balls.
Song Zhenmei and Jin Xueer started selling floral water, perfume, and mosquito repellent!
Having learned from yesterday's experience, the two of them clearly went back to study harder. When others asked about the price, they were confident and could start telling everyone why their products were so expensive!
Song Zhenmei has a straightforward personality, and Jin Xueer is good-looking with a sweet smile.
Jin Xue'er was raised in luxury from a young age, and she naturally exudes an air of nobility, making her words quite convincing.
Cheng Qiqi deliberately assisted Jin Xueer and Song Zhenmei from the sidelines.
Not bad.
Seeing that the two of them were getting into the swing of things, Cheng Qiqi went to the backyard to check on the fish balls and taro balls.
"Qiqi, you've come at the right time. Tangtang, you really are the magistrate's daughter, right?"
Upon seeing Cheng Qiqi, Tian immediately looked over with a gossipy expression.
"Yes, didn't you meet the magistrate?"
Cheng Qiqi nodded, puzzled. Last time Magistrate Su saw Tangtang at home, there were quite a few people present!
The whole village knows that Tangtang is the county magistrate's daughter.
"You also know about what happened at the magistrate's house? So, Tangtang is staying at your house?"
Ms. Tian asked curiously.
"What happened at the magistrate's house?"
Cheng Qiqi immediately realized that when Sister Zhengzheng brought Tangtang to stay at her home, she had indeed considered whether something was wrong with Zhengzheng's family.
"you……"
After hesitating for a while, Aunt Rong said, "Qiqi, don't you know? We stayed in the county yesterday, didn't we? We didn't have anything to eat at night, so we were thinking of picking up some cheap vegetables to share."
"Who knew that on the way here, I would hear people talking about something happening to the magistrate's family."
As she spoke, Aunt Rong slapped her thigh and said, "Oh dear, no wonder Tangtang is so thin. Having such a grandma is truly a tragedy!"
Cheng Qiqi's heart skipped a beat, and she pressed, "Sister-in-law Rong, stop patting your leg! Tell me, what happened at the magistrate's house?"
Could it be that Zhengzheng's mother-in-law favors boys over girls and doesn't like her granddaughter Tangtang?
But, Sister Zhengzheng and Lord Su Ming are still young. It won't be difficult for them to have a grandson in the future.
Besides, Tangtang is only four years old; she is still the biological child of the Su family.
"Ugh."
Before Sister-in-law Rong could even speak, she started sighing.
"Poor Tangtang's mother," Tian Shi chimed in.
"..."
Cheng Qiqi's lips twitched. They were talking about how she had committed a terrible sin and how pitiful she was, just keeping her in suspense and not telling her what would happen next.
Fortunately, Ms. Tian and Sister-in-law Rong worked together to quickly clarify the matter.
This time, the county magistrate's mother came with her youngest son and daughter-in-law, as well as a little girl, saying that she wanted to find a concubine for the magistrate.
It's not unusual for a county magistrate to take a concubine; men often have multiple wives and concubines, especially a county magistrate.
If anyone's to blame, it's the magistrate's own mother; she did something utterly inhumane.
She was treated to good food and drink every day in the county government office, but when she felt unwell, she claimed that the county magistrate's wife had poisoned her!
The county magistrate's wife, Chu Zheng, did not want to bear this blame, so she immediately invited a doctor and the people to come and see for themselves whether Chu Zheng had poisoned the animals!
And so, for the first time, I saw such a sumptuous meal in the county government office.
"You wouldn't believe it, I heard they have chicken, duck, and fish, and the braised pork is a huge piece!"
"That's right, this old woman has really done too many bad things."
Sister-in-law Rong chimed in, continuing her story.
When the doctor came to examine the food, there was absolutely nothing wrong with it!
The magistrate's own mother didn't believe it. She insisted that Chu Zheng had poisoned her, causing her to vomit and have diarrhea, almost killing her!
As a result, all the doctors in the county were invited to the county government office.
In the end, no poison was found.
Chu Zheng's crime was cleared, but the county magistrate's own mother, who was vomiting and having diarrhea, insisted that Chu Zheng had harmed her.
Chu Zheng protested her innocence, saying how could she possibly harm her own mother-in-law?
Then, the magistrate's own mother revealed a shocking secret!
"Qiqi, guess what the magistrate's mother said?"
Tian looked at Cheng Qiqi with excitement.
Sister-in-law Rong said, "Sister-in-law Tian, you definitely wouldn't be able to guess."
"I bet that old woman will say it's because Sister Zhengzheng holds a grudge against her for hurting Tangtang."
Cheng Qiqi didn't even need to ask; she already knew. This was Chu Zheng's counterattack!
Even without asking, an old woman like Grandma Tangtang would know that she must have done something to hurt Tangtang, which is why Tangtang's anorexia relapsed as soon as she saw them!
"Huh? Qiqi, didn't you say you didn't know?"
"yes."
The Tian family and others were shocked; Cheng Qiqi had actually guessed it.
"Otherwise, why did you just say that Tangtang has a grandmother like that? It's a real tragedy."
Cheng Qiqi was even more curious: "What did the old woman do to hurt Tangtang?"
"This old woman doesn't dare to hit Tangtang, doesn't dare to prick Tangtang with a needle, but she forces Tangtang to eat steamed buns. Even when the little girl is full, she still forces more steamed buns on her. She's trying to stuff little Tangtang to death!"
The Tian family and others had seen Su Tang. She had beautiful clothes, but she was even thinner than the children in the village. The clothes fit her well, but they still made Su Tang look so thin that a gust of wind could blow her away!
"this……"
When Cheng Qiqi, who had become a mother, heard this, she couldn't help but clench her fists. Was this really her grandmother?
This is trying to force Tangtang to die!
"You old hag, you deserve to die and go to hell!"
Cheng Qiqi was so angry she almost cursed. She asked, "And then? How did the magistrate handle it?"
Tangtang is so cute, and her smile is so sweet. As her father, if I can't stand up for her, I might as well not have a father at all!
"On one side is my mother, on the other is my daughter..."
Madam Tian paused for a moment and said, "I heard that the magistrate was furious and severed ties with the family on the spot! Then, this morning, we heard that the magistrate's mother and her family have passed away."
"They just left like that? Without any punishment?"
Cheng Qiqi looked at Tian Shi and the others in disbelief, confirming several times, "They all left unharmed?"
"I guess...?"
Tian and the others exchanged glances and shook their heads, saying, "Qiqi, we're just curious too, but we don't know anything about the county magistrate's office."
"No, I have to go see Sister Zhengzheng."
Cheng Qiqi couldn't sit still any longer. If Tangtang knew, she would be so heartbroken.
As Cheng Qiqi stepped out of the courtyard, she saw Chu Zheng standing at the door, who smiled and said to her, "Qiqi, congratulations on opening your new shop!"
