Novel Full Chapter 1033: Good deeds
Wang Shi’s face turned pale under Magistrate Li’s roar, she turned to look at her aunt who was staring at her as if she wanted to eat her alive and trembled. What …What was happening?
She then turned to look at Marquis Qiao who lowered the sword that she was holding in front of her neck and then said, ” M…Marquis Qiao, this is not how it looks like. I was forced…it was Song Yixu! Yes, it was Song Yixu, she was the one who stole my vendors and threatened them to not sell any vegetables to me.
Which was why I could only rely on this method of stealing her vegetable supplier, I was forced into a corner! If you don’t believe me then you can ask those suppliers!”
Wang Shi was not worried that those vegetable suppliers would go against her as she knew that they were all willing to work together with me. At most, they will ask for a few more taels to lie but as long as she could get out of this situation she did not care about anything.
She quickly thought over what she said just now and realized that she hadn’t said anything too suspicious which would bring her into a lot of trouble.
However, at the same time, Wang Shi could not believe her luck. She had threatened commoners more than a hundred times and hardly anyone called the Yamen officers on her and even if the officers were to come they did not make a fuss.
All she had to do was to pay them some money and the officers would leave her alone. Even those who called the Yamen officers would then realize that they could not make any trouble for her and instead, they were the ones who were getting into trouble, thus they also agreed to do business with her.
Furthermore, Wang Shi was used to using her fists first before threatening others when she saw that they were not willing to listen to her. After getting a hefty beating no one dared to challenge her authority, therefore no one reported her to the Yamen. She never thought that one day she would be caught like this.
She then turned to look at her aunt and signed at her desperately to do something but what could Wang Yu do? Because her niece was stupid, she ended up getting into a bunch of trouble and she even got entangled with Marquis Qiao!
What was more she just found out that Magistrate Li had some dealings with Yu Dong which means that the two of them were friends and even if they were not friends they were at least acquaintances. Threatening Yu Dong without investigating her properly, what was her niece thinking?
But she also knew that Wang Shi was a bit too arrogant, she must have found out that Yu Dong was a farmer and thus she did not even bother to look more into her connections. If she had not looked down on Yu Dong too much she would have found out that Yu Dong was not as simple as she looked!
While the aunt and niece were busy looking at each other, Yu Dong opened her lips and then said straightforwardly, “It’s a good thing that you are here Magistrate Li or else I and Marquis Qiao would have been beaten up by these people.”
She pointed to the mammies who have shrunk to one side and then said without even batting an eyelid, ” They caught my husbands and then threatened them to make me forcefully agree with the so-called business contract that Madam Wang wanted me to sign. What’s more she even told me that if I don’t sign it then she will harm my children and pregnant husband.,”
“What’s more she did not even seem to be willing to pay me the money that I deserve.”
Song Yixu then turned to look at Wang Shi and chuckled, ” You are really shameless aren’t you, Wang Shi? I am not against your family using dirty tactics after all, this is how most businesses operate but at least you should pay Miss Yu the price that she deserves, how can you force her to do business with you without paying her properly?”
Wang Shi glared at Song Yixu unceremoniously but the latter was not afraid, in the past she did not bother with the Wang family as they did not dare to go too far with their actions but Wang Shi was even more ruthless than her mother and used every dirty trick that she knew of, this was something that annoyed Song Yixu most.
And to make things worse, she even targeted Yu Dong whom she cared about. Even though the two had a beneficiary relationship Yu Dong and her husbands were honest and likeable.
Thus she looked at Wang Shi and said, ” Tell me, Wang Shi, don’t you think that you were being too harsh?”
Wang Shi gritted her teeth and then looked at Song Yixu before saying, ” I was just talking business with her, it wasn’t as if I harmed her and as for her husbands. It was not even our fault, it was all because they were too noisy and nothing else—— it is not as if they were harmed right ?”
” So it is fine as long as they were not harmed?” Song Yixu spoke sharply. ” You barged into the house of a commoner and used your strength and power to suppress her, from how clear-cut your actions were I think you are a lot more used to doing such thing right? Given how …” she trailed off before looking at the room which was covered in blood.
Though Wang Shi tried to cover it with her body she was a bit too late as Marquis Qiao kicked her to the side and then said,
” Why are you hiding it now? Were you not proud when you were showing it to me and Yu Dong just now? Then be just as proud as earlier. Let Magistrate Li feast on your good deeds.”
