Chapter 81 Liang Yusong asks Lu Jiangnian for help
When Cao Lanxin saw Yuan Wanru indignant and seeking justice for Liang Yusong, she felt indescribable feelings in her heart!
Cao Lanzhi didn't understand what was going on and was extremely angry. She offered support, "That's right, is yours a scam? Who has so many rats in their shop? If someone gets into trouble in your shop, you must give an explanation."
Liang Yusong came from a noble family, and the Cao family could not afford to offend him. This trip today was suggested by the third sister. Afterwards, she was really worried that Liang Yusong would vent his anger on them.
The shopkeeper was originally looking at them with a domineering expression, but when he heard Yuan Wanru mention the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion and the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion, he knew that today's matter would not end well.
He immediately bowed respectfully to Yuan Wanru and apologized: "It is our store's fault for frightening our distinguished guests. We will definitely get to the bottom of this matter."
"You guys, why don't you hurry up and help Miss Liang into the inner hall to rest."
He pointed at a few maids and asked them to help Lamei carry Liang Yusong to the inner hall.
Yuan Wanru snorted coldly, not buying into it at all, acting arrogantly: "I don't want to hear this. I just want to know where the rat came from and how you plan to compensate me for my losses."
"I bought two pieces of clothing from you yesterday, and they must have been crawled over by rats."
"I don't want the clothes anymore. I want you to give me ten times the compensation."
It's really a lion's mouth.
It’s not that Hongxiufang can’t afford to pay the money, but it can’t ask for it. Otherwise, if the news gets out and so many people come to ask for compensation, won’t Hongxiufang lose all its capital?
However, the person in front of him was from the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery Mansion, and he didn't want to offend him.
"Madam, please calm down. The store is in a mess right now. I will come to your house in person tomorrow and give you a satisfactory answer."
Yuan Wanru raised her chin, as proud as a swan, and insisted, "I don't want to wait until tomorrow. I want the money now."
"I spent fifty taels of silver yesterday. You must compensate me with five hundred taels and I will return the clothes."
"Our distinguished guest was frightened here. We need to pay for the comfort and medical expenses. Please give me three thousand taels."
"Give me the money right now, or I will never let you go."
The shopkeeper's face turned green with anger.
He asked for three thousand five hundred taels right away, why didn't she just go and rob it?
The guests had not left yet. They were just scared by the rat and were in a mess. Now they wanted to hear what happened next.
In particular, everyone's eyes lit up when they heard Yuan Wanru asking for compensation.
They don't plan to come to Hongxiufang again in the future, but if they can get some money, who wouldn't want it?
"That's right, I have to pay you back. I've bought clothes from Hongxiufang for years, and rats might have crawled over them. I have to pay you back."
"Yes, I've also bought a lot of clothes here. When I think of those filthy rats crawling all over the house, I feel sick all over. Hongxiufang must pay compensation."
The shopkeeper glared at the person who spoke and became tougher. "Madam, please don't push me too far. Hongxiufang is part of the Jiang family's business. We should be good to each other and not ruin each other's reputation."
Yuan Wanru laughed loudly, pointing at the shopkeeper's nose and cursing: "Who the hell are you? Do you think the Jiang family belongs to you?"
"You're just a small fry in the Jiang family, but you really think you're such a big shot?"
"Even if your Jiang family's master is here, you have to compensate me today!"
The shopkeeper was a man in his fifties. He had been the boss of Hongxiufang for many years and was used to being domineering. How could he tolerate such ridicule?
I don’t know where this wild woman came from. So what if it’s the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery’s Mansion? Is he really afraid of her?
Their Jiang family is Madam Zhaohua's uncle's family.
"Since you are shameless, don't blame Hongxiufang for being rude."
"Someone, kick them out."
Yuan Wanru was just waiting for him to say this. When she heard it, she immediately threw a tantrum: "Okay, you've done something wrong and you're still so arrogant. I won't leave. Let's see what you dare to do to me."
"Bah, you're a coward who relies on others' power, and you dare to yell at me!"
These words shattered the last bit of rationality from the shopkeeper.
"Are they all dead? Get them out, get them out now."
Mrs. Xu had been standing at the door, but she quietly retreated and ran out onto the street, shouting, "Hongxiufang is bullying people and assaulting customers! Someone, please report this to the police! Someone's going to die."
Hongxiufang was unpopular, and there were too many people around who disliked them. Upon hearing this, several people turned around and ran towards the yamen.
Upon hearing the order, the thugs from Hongxiufang immediately stepped forward and tried to pull them apart.
Yuan Wanru went out today with three guards, including Shi Hai.
"Shi Hai, you must subdue these cowards in one move, otherwise I will look down on you."
Shi Hai really wanted to beg her to stop talking. He could see that this guy was here to cause trouble and was constantly adding fuel to the fire.
He could fight, but the five strong men on the opposite side were big and strong, with stable lower bodies, and it was obvious that they had practiced martial arts. He was not a young master, so how could he defeat the enemy with one move?
If she said these words, she would only provoke the enemy's anger.
Sure enough, the cruelty on those people's faces became more and more obvious.
Yuan Wanru spoke again, her eyes full of contempt and disdain: "You are a bunch of cowardly pussies with mean faces. I don't believe they dare to do anything. Why don't you kneel down and hand the money to me? I will probably give you a few coins."
Any man with a bit of blood in his veins couldn't stand her constant taunts. The shopkeeper gave the order: "Go ahead."
Shi Hai's face turned dark. The eldest young lady's wife was not usually like this. With her sharp tongue, she killed people without spilling blood today.
"You keep watch."
He left one guard to guard the women, and rushed forward with another guard to fight with the five men.
The main hall of Hongxiufang is not small, but it is filled with clothes. After the fight broke out, the room became chaotic.
Yuan Wanru yelled, "Everyone, don't leave. Wait for Hongxiufang to compensate you. If there's any money, we can share it."
"Miss Liang from the Duke of Wei's mansion was changing clothes at Hongxiufang when she was frightened by a group of rats and fainted. She didn't even have time to put on her coat. Hongxiufang actually doesn't want to compensate her. Everyone, don't you think this is too much?"
"The shopkeeper is bullying me, but I'm not afraid of him. I must seek justice for Miss Liang Er."
The shopkeeper looked at her angrily. This woman was a shrew. She was the one who took advantage of her power to bully others. It was obviously her!
She's here to mess things up!
Before they knew it, a circle of people had gathered at the door, and they could hear Yuan Wanru's words clearly.
Cao Lanxin felt a chill. Yuan Wanru was trying to ruin Liang Yusong's reputation. What was she saying, "not even wearing an outer coat?" She was shouting so loudly, was she afraid that others wouldn't hear her?
Liang Yusong finally regained consciousness and walked out with Lamei, but she almost fainted from anger again.
What the hell is Yuan Wanru talking about!
Shi Hai and his men were still fighting when suddenly a nimble figure rushed in. With just two moves, the five men fell to the ground.
Liu Yan exclaimed, "It's the eldest young master."
Yuan Wanru was a little surprised. Why was he here?
Lu Jiangnian walked towards her. Before she could say anything, Liang Yusong burst into tears and cried out in grievance, "Brother Lu, I..."
Her eyes were tearful, full of hope and sadness, and she looked at him pitifully: "Please help me, okay?"
