C4

With that, he stabbed the knife into the wooden table beside the stall and kicked over the bowl of meat skewers.

Xijiao could tell that this woman was jealous of their good business and wanted to rob them of their territory.

When had anyone ever seen such a scene? None of them dared to step forward, so they began to discuss amongst themselves.

"I've never seen Widow Li set up a stall here before, why did she turn this stall into hers with just a single sentence? Since ancient times, rules always came first, she must have been jealous of her family's prosperity, so she wanted to take over this place."

"Sigh, I wonder how this Miss Soong Family, with her delicate skin and tender flesh, will deal with this kind of tigress?"

While people were discussing, Widow Li's mouth was still open. She sputtered a bunch of nasty words like she was pouring chestnuts, as if she wanted to fight with Soong Xijiao to the death for her own territory.

Xijiao looked at the meat skewers on the floor that had been ruined. She felt so sorry for them that she didn't want them. The meat skewers that she had worked so hard to make were expected to be exchanged for some money to support her family.

"Mother." Shed pulled at her skirt and looked at her in fear. "Why don't we change places, mother? I'm scared."

"No," she firmly replied, "we can't go to another place, if we were in another place she would think we were that easy to bully. "You must always remember that what can help you in this world is not weakness or tears, but fairness and toughness."

Saying that, she walked out from behind Zhong Chun and calmly looked at Widow Li who was holding a kitchen knife. Although she did not have the kitchen knife in her hand, her momentum did not lose to Widow Li at all.

"Big Sister Li, what proof do you have that this place is yours?"

Li Shou Fu's eyes widened, she slapped the table hard, and unreasonable asked: "Do you have evidence? Anyway, this place is mine! "

Hearing Widow Li's words, Soong Xijiao gave a slight smile but did not reply.

Looking at her calm face, Widow Li felt a little guilty. She had fought with so many unreasonable women before that she thought that this young miss of Soong Family would be crying in a flustered and exasperated manner. However, she didn't seem to care about her at all.

With victory in her hands, Xijiao pulled out a document from her sleeves and said to the people around her, "I have a copy of the document I just received from the yamen. I wonder if any scholars would be willing to read it for me?"

"Allow me." Zhong Chun took over the document gently from Soong Xijiao, opened it and read out loud: "I am the hunter Zhong Chun, who has a deal with his wife at No.21 in Universe Lane."

He paused for a moment after reading the document, then announced the name of County Governor and Shen Yi.

When everyone heard County Governor and Shen Yi's name, they were all stunned. County Governor is the county's highest administrator, in charge of all these matters, maintaining order and so on. As the saying goes, one cannot live in public or die in hell. People would avoid the county magistrate, but no one would dare to offend him.

Zhong Chun also frowned after reading it. He bent down and asked Soong Xijiao with concern in his stern voice, "You went to the yamen? Did they do anything to you? Did he make things difficult for you?

Xijiao shook her head gently at his hand and said with a smile, "Nothing. County Governor is very good. He wrote me a letter and allowed me to set up a stall here."

This time, Widow Li could no longer hold back her embarrassment. No matter how strong and fierce she was, how could she dare to touch County Governor's head with this blade? She stood awkwardly on the spot, completely devoid of her previous arrogance. She even lowered her head, not daring to look into Xijiao's eyes.

The surrounding people also started to point at her: "Look, relying on her big body's size, she bullied the other person's big miss Soong Family. If it wasn't for her already being prepared, this stall would really have been taken away by her."

Widow Li's face had turned as red as a monkey's butt, but at this moment, Soong Xijiao did something no one expected her to do.

She leisurely walked in front of Widow Li and smiled, saying, "Aunt, you don't have to be nervous. If you like, we can take turns running the stall together. If you think that this method is feasible, then everyone here is a witness, so we have come to an agreement. "

Widow Li stared at Soong Xijiao in astonishment, thinking that she had misheard. Everyone was puzzled by her behavior. Who would give away half of what was already in their mouths to someone else?

Seeing that Xijiao was pleased with herself, Widow Li turned to Zhong Chun and said, "You also agree to this?"

He replied straightforwardly, "My wife agrees that there's nothing wrong with me."

Xijiao's face immediately turned red as she whispered, "My wife, isn't that a bit too smooth with your words?"

How could Widow Li refuse to help when there was such a thing as a pie falling from the sky? She threw her kitchen knife and excitedly held Xijiao's hand as she shouted, "Miss, we have a deal! In the future, I'll come by myself and you can come by yourself. This place will definitely become very popular! "

Xijiao held her hand, which was about to be cut off, and said with a smile, "Sure, sure. It's settled then."

As the crowd gradually dispersed, Xijiao and Zhong Chun also started to clean up.

She was a bit embarrassed, she felt that she needed to explain everything to Zhong Chun clearly. That Widow Li was like a mule following a mule. Just follow his wishes, and we don't have time to set up a stall here every day. "To be able to look after each other with us … With how fierce she is, no one will have any intention of looking after our stall …"

Xijiao looked at him nervously as she spoke. She did take into account all sorts of factors, and while she seemed to be giving Auntie Li benefits on the surface, it was actually mutually beneficial. It was much more convenient for him.

Zhong Chun didn't say anything, he just slowly raised his head and stared at Xijiao. She was so scared that she asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? Am I wrong? "

"No," The male lead's gaze was bright and full of spirit, "I was just thinking, how did that stupid and lazy Third Lady, who everyone knows about, become so smart all of a sudden?"

Her face turned as red as Widow Li's, afraid of being found out. He quickly explained, "Actually, I was quite capable in the past, but I just never used it."

Seeing that Zhong Chun was skeptical, she could only pray in her heart. Luckily, she didn't reveal anything.

After returning home, Soong Xijiao started to count her income. Although she had wasted a lot of the Bamboo Rat by Widow Li, she still had a lot of harvest.
