C20 Resolve

"I don't know what you're talking about. If you don't believe me, you can look at the symbol on the flagon.

Faang Shuyao took the wine jug and looked at it. It was indeed the Fang family symbol. She opened the jug and sniffed it, the corners of her lips curving upwards.

The wine pot was the Fang family's wine pot, but this wine was not the Fang family's wine.

The Fang family's old patriarch was an alcoholic, so Faang Shuyao had to beg for wine for the old tutor when they were young. As the Fang family's wine was a secret recipe, it was vastly different from the other taverns' wine flavors. Faang Shuyao could tell the difference with a whiff.

Since that was the case, Faang Shuyao was more confident now.

"Aunt, think carefully, did you really hit this wine from our tavern?" "You must think this through. Otherwise, if you disturb our store's business and almost ruin our reputation, then if I were to seek justice for you, you would lose money."

Hearing that, the woman's wailing became even louder, "Is Miss Faang threatening me? If you have evidence, just take it out. If you don't have any proof, you're not being kind by blinking at me like this. "What? Am I guilty of buying wine at your Fang family?"

"Why didn't you answer my question directly?" Faang Shuyao stood up unhurriedly. "Since Aunt is unwilling to say, how about I find the evidence myself?"

On the other side, Ji Chengyu was chatting with his mother to relieve his boredom. When he heard Maidservant say that something had happened at the store, Faang Shuyao went over to take care of it herself.

"Chengyu, everything is fine here. Hurry up and help Shuyao. Don't let anyone bully you alone."

"Mother, don't worry. Madam is extremely intelligent and cannot be bullied by ordinary people. Besides, the Madam has asked me to accompany her mother. If I leave, the Madam will be angry. "

"Mother knows that you are filial and that Shuyao is usually strong, but no matter how strong she is, she is still just a woman." I was the one who didn't have the ability, and her father left too early, causing her to have to carry such a burden at such a young age. "Sometimes, it hurts to see her work so much …"

"Mom, don't say anymore, I'm going over to take a look now." Ji Chengyu said goodbye and went straight to the shop after leaving.

Faang Shuyao got the shopkeeper to bring out two big bowls, one of which contained the wine from the wine pot and the other from the bowl. Faang Shuyao asked the shopkeeper to bring out two large bowls, one of which contained the wine from the wine pot and the other one from the wine pot.

"The wine in these two bowls is not the same wine at all. The Fang family's wine has its own mellow aroma. I have always wanted to drink it a second time after drinking it once. "The other bowl of wine has no fragrance and also a hint of tartness. It's extremely similar to the old Wang Family wine on the street …"

"That's right, that's right. I think so too. We've been drinking the Fang family's wine the entire time. Don't we know what their wine is like?" As for the other bowl of wine, I'm afraid even water would be better than the Fang family's wine. "

"After hearing what you said, I suddenly realized that this woman must be here to find fault …"

Everyone recovered from their stupor and looked at the woman with different eyes.

Seeing this, the smile on Faang Shuyao's face became even wider. Ji Chengyu came over and stood outside the crowd. Seeing that she calmly responded to everything that was happening, he stood to the side as a spectator.

"Aunt, do you still have evidence? Or are you going to tell me what's going on? "

"Hmph, who knows if you're colluding or not. "In short, my wine was taken from your Fang Clan. Since I bought the fake wine, your Fang Clan must compensate me."

"If the wine in your wine jug is really from our Fang family, then we can compensate as much as we want, but if not …" Faang Shuyao smiled meaningfully. "You have to compensate us for our losses as well."

"Your Fang family has a lot of businesses, why are you all fussing over this small amount of money?" The woman snorted in disdain.

Faang Shuyao was angered and laughed when she heard this, "Although our Fang family does not need this much compensation from you, we can't just let you take all the good things, can we? They wanted us to compensate them for framing us for selling fake wine. If I cannot find evidence today, not only will you destroy my father's life's work, you will also need us to compensate you. "If you become the big winner, then our Fang family will be despised by everyone …"

"On the contrary, if you frame us, not only would we not be able to claim a single cent from you, we would also want to let you go? How could the world be so cheap? Aunt, if it were you, what would you do? "

"You … What a sharp tongued little girl. " The woman saw that everyone had fallen towards Faang Shuyao and stood up, extremely exasperated. "Can't I just walk through the place? Alright, I'll be leaving first. "

"Stop, after being in trouble for such a long time, aunty just said that you went to the wrong place and wanted to send me away?" Do I look like a weak person who can be bullied? "Manager, bring him to the officials."

As soon as she heard that they wanted to see the official, the woman immediately lost her composure and plopped down on the ground. With a sniff of her nose, she said, "Eldest Miss, I know my wrongs, please forgive me. I was just a bit greedy and drank the wine in my pot, then casually bought some wine by the roadside. Eldest Miss, since you have so much, don't bother trying to lower yourself to my level. "

So that's how it is. I have to say, if a person is greedy, he really can think of any method.

However, today's matter was a reminder to her. In the future, it was better to check the items sold in the store and register them before selling them.

"What if I want to lower myself to your level?" Faang Shuyao asked, unwilling to let him go.

"Miss Fang, I was wrong, I really know that I was wrong." "I'm greedy, I have eyes but couldn't recognize Mt. Tai, I …"

Faang Shuyao looked at this woman and had a strange thought in her mind. This woman seemed very ordinary, but she didn't seem like someone with a mind of her own. Besides, normal women were usually timid, so where did she get the confidence that once the matter was exposed, she would be safe and sound as long as she was carefully begged?

If he refused to give up and insisted on reporting, what could she do?

Faang Shuyao had a premonition in her heart that all of this wasn't a coincidence but had been deliberately planned out by someone. As for who exactly it was … She still couldn't figure it out. However, it should be related to Faang Xin and his son.

Ji Chengyu had been standing on the side all this time, watching Faang Shuyao put this matter aside bit by bit. He saw her peeling the cocoon, finding some clues, and then using the public opinion to make the woman admit it. Ordinary people would find it hard to imagine such a plan.

She always seemed to surprise him. She had a soft side, a strong side, and a smart side. In the end, she was the real Ji Chengyu. At this moment, Ji Chengyu was a little attracted to this girl …
