Chapter 95: Self-reaping the consequences
Han Dongying patted his robe, stood up and went to find Han Yuanwai, and asked him if he had tasted the rich meat from Boss Zhang's dim sum.
Han Yuan wrote a big static character on the rice paper, looked at it for a moment, put down the pen, and looked up at Han Dongying, "Have you tasted it?" ”
"Tasted." Han Dongying sat on the chair, crossed Erlang's legs, and looked at Han Yuanwai leisurely.
Seeing his son's leisurely expression, Han Yuanwai's heart was at ease.
He walked over to a chair and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a slow sip, "Looks like it's not satisfactory?" ”
Han Dongying listened, sneered twice, and shouted to the door, asking the little maid to bring in the rich meat he bought back and give it to Han Yuan to taste.
Han Yuanwai raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, picked up a slice and put it in his mouth, tasted it slowly, and frowned, "It's only a little worse than what the Jade Pavilion sells." "If that's the case, it will have a certain impact on their business.
Han Dongying raised his hand and asked him to continue to taste two more slices.
Han Yuanwai glanced at him suspiciously, and ate two slices in a row, so that he tasted different.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he took two sips of the teacup and removed the taste from his mouth, "It seems that some people don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin." "How dare you sell something so unpalatable?
He waited to see the show.
Han Dongying stretched out his little finger and gouged out his ears, and chuckled, "Within a day, Old Man Zhang will be crying." "It's really self-inflicted.
Father and son looked at each other and laughed.
At this time, Boss Zhang was lying on the recliner with a proud face, enjoying the maid's service.
He will slowly suppress the Jade Pavilion, and when the time comes, will Han Dexin still be able to laugh?
The only thing that made him unhappy was that he hadn't studied the spices yet, and the spices stolen from the Zhao family were too finely ground and mixed too much, so people couldn't distinguish them for a while.
If you run out of spices, do you have to have someone steal them?
If he can steal the first time, he can't steal the second time, and he thinks this method is inappropriate.
The best way is to study the spices as soon as possible.
"Sir, sir—" The butler hurried in.
"Huh? Is it that the number of customers in the shop has increased again, and the supply is in short supply? Boss Zhang sat up and looked at the housekeeper with a smile.
The housekeeper's heart beat wildly, and he watched Boss Zhang swallow his saliva, and said that something was wrong.
Something went wrong?
Boss Zhang's brows furrowed and asked him what happened?
Seeing Boss Zhang's slightly gloomy face, the housekeeper slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said it in one go.
"There is a problem with Fugui meat, and all the customers who have bought it have turned around to make trouble and ask for compensation." He didn't expect that there would be a problem with rich meat, and there was no problem after tasting it before.
"What's wrong with rich meat, tell me 1510." Boss Zhang waved his hand to the maid, and after the maid went down, his eyes looked at the housekeeper again.
This is his opportunity to suppress Han Dexin, how can Fugui Rou have a problem at this juncture?
The housekeeper sighed in his heart, took out a bag of rich meat from his sleeve, bowed his body, and handed it to Boss Zhang with both hands.
After Boss Zhang ate it, he spit out the rich meat in his mouth with a snort, kicked over the chair with a dark face, and yelled.
"Damn slut, dare you lie to me?" His chest rose and fell violently, and his eyes widened, "After calming the guest, go find that slut and teach her a lesson." "How dare you lie to him?
The butler said yes, lowered his head and walked out quickly, and there was a crackling sound behind him, which frightened him even more.
It's been a long time since he's seen the old man so angry.
It seems that this time it was really angry.
All of this was due to the coarse peasant woman, who would not have been discredited if it had not been for her.
After he calmed down the guest, he went to her himself and taught her a lesson.
However, Ma Shi didn't know all this, and she was still immersed in the joy of making a windfall.
She didn't expect that Master Zhang would let people find her and do business with her.
Originally, she was going to steal the recipe for the wheat in the field, but since someone came to her to send her money, she wouldn't push the money out.
She got two hundred taels of silver for nothing, and she was very happy when she thought about it.
If it weren't for the fear that Tian Mai would associate it with her, she would have gone out to show off wearing the jewelry she bought.
During the critical period, she had to hold back and not be too public.
After the limelight has passed, she will go out to show off.
Just as she was in her room, admiring herself with jewelry, Sun came knocking on her door and said that someone was looking for her.
When Ma heard this, he hurriedly put away her jewelry, and then tidied up her clothes before running to open the door.
Hehe laughed, Ma said that she was a little tired, she was sleeping, and without waiting for Sun to speak, she changed the topic and asked her, who came to her?
Speaking of this, Sun's eyes flashed, he reached out and grabbed Ma's arm, and asked her in a low voice when she knew the eldest master from the county seat?
One look at what the person is wearing, and you know that he is a person of good status.
From the county seat?
Hearing this, Ma hurriedly pushed Sun away, but he didn't have time to explain, he ran out quickly, ran to the yard and saw the housekeeper, with a big smile on his face, thinking if the housekeeper in this chapter wants to cooperate with him again?
"Steward Zhang, why are you here?"
The butler looked at her quietly, "I have something important to talk to you about." He felt sick at the sight of this woman's flattering smile.
When Ma heard this, he smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, and hurriedly went to invite the housekeeper into the hall, and asked Sun to pour a bowl of sugar water in.
Sun looked at the housekeeper's face, didn't bother with Ma, and went to make a bowl of sugar water with a smile.
She put it in front of the housekeeper and asked with a smile what the housekeeper was doing when she came to find her daughter-in-law?
Seeing that Sun had no intention of going out, Ma Shi was a little anxious, and gently pushed her, "Mother, do you want to go out and sit down for a while, and I will talk to Steward Zhang about something?" ”
Before Sun could attack, the housekeeper waved his hand, "No, it's okay to listen." "Anyway, he's here to collect debts today, so it doesn't matter if there is one more person to listen to.
Sun's face was happy, and after turning his head to glare at Ma, he asked with a smile what is good about Steward Zhang?
Steward Zhang glanced at Sun and Ma, who also had flattering smiles on their faces, their faces sank suddenly, and they raised their hands and slapped the table hard, "Ma, are you guts?" How dare you deceive our master? ”
The housekeeper suddenly had a seizure, which frightened Sun and Ma, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's faces turned pale, and after a while, Sun asked the housekeeper suspiciously, what did her daughter-in-law deceive him?
The housekeeper snorted coldly, took out a pack of pork jerky and threw it in front of Ma's for her to taste it.
Ma Shi glanced at the housekeeper with a calm face in horror, stretched out his trembling hand, and went to take the pork jerky that was thrown on the table, and after she ate two slices, her face suddenly changed, her eyes were full of disbelief, and her mouth said that it was impossible, she obviously took it from the cabinet, how could the difference be so big?
"How could it be?" The housekeeper glanced at Ma coldly, "Because of your deception, my master not only suffered huge losses, but also lost his reputation, you say, how to compensate?" ”
"Compensation... Indemnify? Ma's whole person trembled, and looked at the housekeeper with a sad face, "I... I... I swear, I definitely didn't deceive Master Zhang, I see that Tian Wheat uses this spice, could it be that you did the wrong step? "Give her a hundred guts, and don't dare to deceive Master Zhang, she doesn't have a long life.
The housekeeper didn't want to hear her talk so much nonsense, so he directly asked her to return the previous two hundred taels of silver, and then compensate for the loss of three hundred taels of silver, a total of five hundred taels of silver.
"What? Five... Five hundred taels of silver? ”
"The second one, when did you receive two hundred taels of silver? How did I not know? ”
Ma and Sun spoke at the same time, and their expressions were not good-looking.
Turning his head to look at Sun, Ma rubbed his hands, "Mother, I'll tell you about this later." As he spoke, he looked at the housekeeper again, "Steward Zhang, you... You see if there's some misunderstanding in it, I swear I really didn't lie to you, I... I also have a bottle of spices here that you can take and see. After the words fell, he hurriedly ran back to the room, took out the remaining bottle of spices, put it on the table and pushed it to Steward Zhang.
Steward Zhang took it and took a look, opened it again and smelled it, it was really exactly the same as the taste he got in his hand, he slammed it back on the table, and said coldly that it was this spice that caused his master to lose his money and reputation.
It's easy to say that money can be earned back, but when this reputation is gone, it will be difficult to accumulate it again.
When Ma Shi heard this, his mind flashed, and he hated that Tian Mai must have designed them.
She said how could she have stolen the key and the spices so smoothly? It turned out that Tian Mai was waiting for her here.
Poisonous woman, Tian Mai, this poisonous woman.
Ma Shi was so angry that his face turned blue, if Tian Mai stood in front of her, she would definitely beat her and beg for mercy.
With a flash of his eyes, the housekeeper's heart sank, but his face remained silent, "That's none of my business, I bought the spices from you, and the compensation will naturally come from you." As for the matter of the field wheat, we will calculate it later, "I don't have time to spend it here with you, hurry up, take out the five hundred taels of silver, otherwise, we will see you at the yamen." ”
As soon as she heard the word yamen, Ma was even more afraid, trembling and saying that she didn't have so much silver.
She had never seen so much silver, how could she possibly take it out?
"This is your family's business, I will only give you three days, and if you don't send five hundred taels of silver to the Zhang family in three days, you know the consequences." The housekeeper glanced coldly at Ma and Sun again, snorted heavily, and left with his sleeves flicked up.
As soon as he left, Sun gritted his teeth and raised his hand to slap Ma hard.
Ma stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
