694. Chapter 688 Bullying others with power


The leader was a young woman, dressed in gorgeous clothes, exquisite makeup, and covered with hair accessories, either gold or silver, and was bright and dazzling in the sunlight.

The woman claimed that her surname was Liu and came from the Zou family. "Zou Family?" Xia Mingyue was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered something, but her face was full of confusion. "I am not familiar with Miss Liu, and I have never had any contact with the Zou Family. I wonder why Miss Liu suddenly came to the door?"

When Liu saw Xia Mingyue answering, she was immediately a little unhappy.

She had already found out before coming that the sisters Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu had been working in Xia Ji for a long time. And others said that the two sisters were taken back to Jinqiu County by Xia Mingyue from outside.

But now I said that I have never had any contact with the Zou family. Isn’t this talking lies with my eyes open?

The slender Danfeng eyes narrowed slightly, suppressing the anger in his heart as much as possible. Liu tried his best to maintain a decent smile on his face. "But I heard that in the Xia Ji run by Miss Xia, there are two little girls who work in the surname Zou."

"This is true." Xia Mingyue nodded, pretending to be confused, "It's just that the two sisters have nothing to do with your Zou family?"

Liu's expression sank with naked eyes. "Madam Xia probably doesn't know that Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu are my daughters."

"The two sisters are your daughters?" Xia Mingyue looked at Liu for a long time and was full of doubts. "It seems that this age is not right."

"Let's come back, look at Miss Liu's clothes and demeanor. I think my family is well-off, but when I hired the Zou sisters to work in the workshop, the two sisters were outdated and had no clothes. They didn't look like Miss Liu's family."

"That's the third..." Xia Mingyue smiled, "I'm sorry, Miss Liu's faces are not similar to the Zou sisters."

Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu have always been decent, have little heart, and have no experience of going out. When the two of them are outside, since someone takes them in, they will definitely be grateful and tell their situation.

Why does Xia Mingyue seem to have no idea about the situation of the two of them at all?

Is the two sisters deliberately concealing it, or is this Xia here just messing around and talking nonsense?

After thinking for a while, Liu felt that the latter was quite likely.

After all the way to Jinqiu County, she got almost all the good things about Xia Mingyue.

Many people praise her for her good deeds and praise her good behavior. They can be said to be full of mouthfuls and splashes. There is a great benefit that she would be told about a lot of tea today.

Liu sneered at this, and felt that Xia Mingyue was definitely not a good person.

A businessman can manage his reputation so well and make others bewitched to such an extent, which shows his effectiveness.

This time, it was probably much harder than she thought.

But since they are all here...

Liu pursed her lips, and after a brief thought, she squeezed out a smile, "Let Madam Xia laugh, I am the second wife of my master, so Shiyun and Shiliu are not my friends, so they don't look similar."

"As for the common clothes of their sisters..." Liu smiled and said, "All of them are unmarried girls. They are always at home, so they naturally come to be comfortable. If you go out to see guests, you will naturally have other clothes and jewelry."

"Besides, my master pays great attention to the upbringing of his children, and thinks that no matter children, they need to be well taught, do not be vain, waste every day, and only seek to enjoy it blindly, so we are always at home."

"The reason why I dress more generously today is because I have to go out and can't lose the face of the Zou family and my master..."

"I understand." Xia Mingyue looked like she suddenly realized her mind. After nodding one after another, she said, "Shiyun and Shiliu are like this because of her stepmother."

Liu, "..."

I felt that Xia Mingyue seemed to have something in her words, but she seemed to have never said anything.

Liu's face darkened, "Since ancient times, it has been difficult for stepmother to do, and it is no exception to come to me. Since I arrived at the Zou family, Shiyun and Shiliu have looked at me coldly. The servants are afraid that the world will not be in chaos and are just instigating trouble."

"Take the fact that the two sisters secretly left home for example. I originally wanted to kiss her. In addition, the nephews in the family were really outstanding, so I wanted to engage Shiyun with her nephews. As a result, those black-hearted and heart-wrenching who had sores on their tongues came to Shiyun for no reason and told me about the bad things of my mother's nephews. They only made Shiyun think that I was the kind of evil person who was dedicated to pushing her into the fire pit. From then on, I hated me and actually ran out of the house with my sister."

"After this incident, I was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. While I kept sending people to find the two sisters, I also comforted the master and calmed down all kinds of rumors. It was so busy that I was so busy that I was like an ant on a hot pan. "

"It was not until some time ago that I received the letter. I knew that the two sisters were here, so I rushed over and wanted to pick them up home."

"So that's it." Xia Mingyue suddenly realized again, "But these two sisters have been working here for a long time, and Miss Liu has not found it. Why did there suddenly be news about the two people?"

"After the two sisters settled here, they wrote a letter to her grandfather's house. The grandfather's family felt that they were very nonsense, and they listened to others' nonsense, and committed the ugly thing of escaping marriage, so they wrote a letter to inform the family."

Liu replied, "The master was very angry when he learned about this, so he told me to go and take them back and teach them well."

"So that's it." Xia Mingyue nodded again, and her eyes sank unconsciously.

She knew about the letter from Zou Shiyun and his sisters who wrote to their grandfather's family for help. At that time, the letter was sent for a long time but received no response. Xia Mingyue thought that his grandfather's family might have moved, so the letter might not be delivered.

I never thought that something like this happened.

The grandfather's family obviously had to stand idly by and watch the matter. As the current mistress of the Zou family, Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu's stepmother, Liu has the right to take the two sisters back.

Now the only one who can help the two sisters is Xia Mingyue.

Xia Mingyue sighed after thinking for a while, "I understand this whole thing. Shiyun and Shiliu came out without hiding it. It was indeed their fault. Now that you are coming to the door, logically, I should advise them to go back with you."

"Just..."

Xia Mingyue paused, "Shiyun and Shiliu are working in my Xiaji. This contract has been agreed to work for ten years. If you want to leave in less than a year..." "Don't worry about this matter," Liu said hurriedly, "Our Zou family has a lot of liquidated damages, just pay it to Xia Ni."


"Take it seriously?" Xia Mingyue was a little uncertain, "But that's what..."

"This is of course true." Liu said, "Shiyun and Shiliu can settle here, which is somewhat of a blessing from Miss Xia. This money should be regarded as a little thanks from our Zou family."

As long as you quickly lead the two dead girls back home and spend a few taels of silver or something, it is not a problem.

What's more, it's just a job here, and no matter how much you calculate it, it doesn't matter how much you calculate it.

Liu could not wait, "Madam Xia will settle the score and tell me the number."

"Since Miss Liu said this, it's easy to deal with." Xia Mingyue smiled, "When Mrs. Liu first entered the yard, I realized that the Zou family was well-off and Mrs. Liu was also a happy person. It's easy to deal with it. Pay the money with one hand and release it with the other, and there is no other dispute."

"But these three thousand taels of silver are not a small amount. How did Mrs. Liu plan to give it? Silver bills or cash bills? For silver bills, it has to be exchanged for silver. Three thousand taels are not enough, and it takes two hundred taels to add..."

Xia Mingyue settled the score with her fingers, but Liu's eyes almost fell from her eyes. "How much money do you think?" Liu didn't believe in his ears very much.

The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!

"Three thousand taels." Lady Xia was a little surprised, "Is there any problem?"

Of course there is a problem, and the problem is big!

Liu was both confused and anxious, and his voice increased a lot, "Three thousand taels? These two dead girls are just working here, why do you need three thousand taels of silver to compensate?"

Diet girls?

This title suddenly turned the magnificent words that Liu said before in an instant, like paper that has been experiencing too much wind and rain, and it was broken into pieces with a slight touch.

Then this matter will be easier.

Xia Mingyue raised the smile on the corner of her mouth meaningfully, "Don't you believe what Liu said? Then I'll settle the score for you."

"Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu's monthly wages are one or five cents of silver, one or eighty cents of silver a year, and one or eighty cents of silver in ten years. With this continuous increase, let's only calculate it at 200 cents of silver. This is one of them."

"The second thing is that they are working in the central kitchen of Xia Ji. All kinds of things in the central kitchen are supplied to various Xia Ji food stalls. Any food is taken out, which is the capital for ordinary people to settle down."

"What the two sisters and sisters have come into contact with each other in daily life are very critical secret recipes. I naturally have to consider the serious consequences of the secret recipe leak. So since Miss Liu wants to take them back, I must of course get the money in my hands as soon as possible to be at ease."

" Otherwise, if you, mother and daughter, cooperate with each other, make up a reason for me and take the person away easily, wouldn't I have lost a lot?"

"I have only been open for about three years in Xia Ji Central Kitchen, and I have earned thousands of taels of silver. To put it bluntly, I don't really want much of the three thousand taels of silver. This is also because Miss Liu is not easy. Otherwise, it would be in line with the market!"

Xia Mingyue said this loudly, and her expression changed again and again.

After a moment, his eyes narrowed wide and looked at Xia Mingyue with hostility, "Miss Xia, I just said that it's hard to be a stepmother. I have good intentions, but Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu are not grateful and have a deep misunderstanding of me."

"Their sisters must have hated me very much, and even said a lot of bad things about me in front of Mrs. Xia, crying about my misfortune. Mrs. Xia is a kind person and will inevitably be deceived by two little girls. She wants to stand up for others, but Mrs. Xia should also think about whether this should be supported by others, and whether it is worth it."

"Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu surnamed Zou are from our Zou family. Let's not talk about the excellent marriage arranged for her at home. Even if it is not good, it is the matchmaker's order. It is natural that even if the government comes in front of me, it cannot be said that it is a word. If Miss Xia deliberately interferes with it, it would be unreasonable. "

"Xia's wife is now the lord of Anle Township. Her husband and younger brother are both high-ranking officials in the army. She has a respectable status and is eye-catching. If Miss Xia's behavior is wrong, it will probably be even more criticized."

"Or, Miss Xia relies on her high position to think that she can bully others and interfere with other people's family affairs at will?"

"Xia's wife knows so much, which shows that she has inquired about everything early and then came to the door."

Xia Mingyue smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then Miss Liu should know that the business situation and actual value of my Xia Ji are the same. The price I offer is not high. If Miss Liu really has questions here, then we can go to court and let the county magistrate judge a little."

"Miss Liu thought I was bullying others just now, and I thought that the county magistrate would favor me. It would be better for us to go to the government office or even the capital to talk about this matter to the emperor and the queen. How about it?"

Liu's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Xia Mingyue is now the lord of Anle Township. She has a prominent status in her family. She is a celebrity in front of the empress and even the queen. When she came to the emperor and the queen to talk about this, do you still need to guess the result?

She said this to confirm the four words "bullying on the power"?

"You are the dignified Lord of Anle Township. I am just an ordinary person. Of course, everything you say is right, and we have nowhere to seek justice."

Liu immediately stopped caring about the so-called face, so he simply stood up and looked at Xia Mingyue viciously, "It's just that we are barefoot and are not afraid of wearing shoes. If Mrs. Xia really wants to do things, we have a way to deal with things."

"I'll go out now and let the people in the city judge and see how your Lord of Anle Township bullies others too much and how he wants to cheat others' money in different ways!"

Liu said and was about to go out.

Xia Mingyue slowly took a sip of the tea in the cup, "Please, at this time, there are the most people in the Chenghuang Temple and the most lively. Lady Liu might as well go there. It is best to find a pair of gongs and drums, which will be more attractive."

Liu, "..."

Is this really not taking her seriously, but just thinking that she is an ant that can be killed at will?

Then I want to let you see that even if it is an ant, it will hurt when biting a person! (This chapter ends)
