Chapter 210: Background

Translator: Lonelytree

When Xiao Lingyu announced that she was the owner of Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables, many people were surprised.

Many of them had heard of the shop.

Some of them had never seen the owner, but they had eaten the vegetables, for example, Grandpa Zeng.

As soon as he heard Xiao Lingyu was the owner, he immediately smiled and said, “You own the shop often mentioned by Ol Qian and Ol Chen? I’ve eaten your vegetables before. They are not bad. However, it’s hard for my family to get them. I hear your business is really good.”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Grandpa, I need to thank my customers for their support.”

Grandpa Zeng thought for a moment and said, “Miss, I heard from Ol Qian and the others that they ordered their vegetables directly from you. Is that true?”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Sir, there are indeed a few old clients who book daily vegetables from me.”

Grandpa Zeng looked around and whispered to Xiao Lingyu, “Girl, do you think I can book daily vegetables from you too?”

Xiao Lingyu readily replied, “Of course, Grandpa.” She knew many people with the surname Qian and Chen, but only a few handfuls of them had booked daily vegetables from her. Seeing how familiar Grandpa Zeng was with those elders, he had to come from a powerful background too. Xiao Lingyu was a businesswoman. She was shrewd. She knew she needed connections. Why would she miss out on this network?

“Okay, it’s a deal then!” Grandpa Zeng said happily, “Save some vegetables for me like how you did Ol Chen and Ol Qian.”

Xiao Lingyu nodded. “Grandpa, just tell me how much vegetables you need every day, and I’ll reserve them for you. Then, you can go straight to the Gu Family Hotel to get them.” The vegetables she sold to the Gu Family Hotel and the vegetables she reserved for her familiar clients all came from the farming space.

Gu Qingjiao was nervous when she saw Xiao Lingyu and the nosy old man talking and laughing together. But she immediately became angry.

She pointed at Grandpa Zeng and scolded, “Old Man, what does my shop’s business have to do with you? If you continue to mind my business, I’ll really have someone come to break your bones!”

The Madam Boss was flustered by Xiao Lingyu’s self-introduction. She was not scared by Xiao Xinxin and her family, but she was cautious of Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables. When that shop opened for business, the event was really grand.

The general manager of the Gu Family Hotel, the boss of Fei Teng Car Dealership, the eldest son of the Zheng Real Estate, and many others went to celebrate. They were powerful people at Xing Yin County. They were not scary as merchants, but their background was terrifying. They had sent flower baskets for the shop’s grand opening, so they must have a certain degree of friendship with the owner.

Gu Qingjiao was someone who bullied the weak and feared the strong. After being in the business for so many years, she understood the importance of connections.

If Xiao Lingyu were just the owner of an ordinary shop, she would not be a threat. However, her shop was not ordinary. She didn’t know how to deal with Xiao Lingyu, so she could only wait for her husband to come.

However, she couldn’t just stand there and do nothing. She had to vent her anger. She decided to make the old man who had been standing up for Xiao Xinxin her target.

After being scolded, Grandpa Zeng’s face turned livid again.

He pointed at Gu Qingjiao and said loudly, “Fine. I will wait here for your people to come to break my legs!”

Xiao Chengbang frowned and said to Gu Qingjiao with a cold expression, “Are you crazy? You actually threatened an elder because he said a few words of support? Do you think you’re the empress or something? Don’t worry, elder. If someone really aims to harm you, I’ll protect you. I’m just a common farmer, but I do have strength.”

Grandpa Zeng said, “Young man, thank you. But I am not afraid.”

“You’re not afraid? Good, then just wait right here! You really think I’m a pushover?!” Gu Qingjiao said fiercely.

She took out her phone and made a call. When the call was connected, she immediately said, “Hubby, call third brother and the others. There’s an old man here who wants to die. He needs to be taught a lesson. You’ve already called them? You’re almost here? Okay. Hurry up.”

Everyone was stunned by the woman. Was she arrogant or brainless? She actually asked her husband to come to beat people up in public. Did she really think the police couldn’t do anything to her?

Of course, some of the onlookers were afraid of getting into trouble, so they subconsciously backed away.

The woman put down the phone. She looked very confident.

She looked at Grandpa Zeng and said fiercely, “Old man, you can’t blame me. Who told you to be so nosy? You asked to be taught a lesson, so I will give you that!”

Xiao Lingyu said coldly, “Madam, do you think you really rule over this county town?”

Since this grandpa was familiar with Uncle Qian, how could he be an ordinary person? Plus, she confirmed that when she conversed with Grandpa Zeng. Therefore, the Madam Boss was really digging her own grave!

Xiao Lingyu said with some worry, “Grandpa, why don’t you go and hide first? It’s not good if you’re injured. The boss is really black-hearted.”

Gu Qingjiao might really call people to hit Grandpa Zeng. She would be punished later, but Grandpa Zeng shouldn’t suffer for no reason.

Grandpa Zeng waved his hands. “Don’t worry. I’m not concerned about a few ruffians. When I was young, I could take on more than a dozen soldiers by myself.”

“But Grandpa, you’re not young anymore.” Xiao Lingyu persuaded.

“Don’t worry about me. I might be old, but I’m not out of practice yet!” Grandpa Zeng said proudly. “When I was young, Ol Qian, Ol Yuan, and the others couldn’t beat me. Now, they can’t beat me either. So, I can handle a few ruffians.”

Xiao Lingyu,”…” That was then, but this was now…

Before Xiao Lingyu could persuade Grandpa Zeng, a white sedan arrived. It stopped with a whoosh. Then, the door opened, and a few tall and strong men came out.

When the man who came out of the passenger seat saw the crowd gathered in front of De Wang Supermarket, he shouted angrily, “What are you people looking at? Get lost!”

Most of the crowd consisted of people who came out for a morning walk. They were just ordinary people. Now that the gangsters were here, some of them were frightened. They didn’t want to get beaten up.

When the man saw the frightened crowd, his face showed a proud expression. Then he looked at Gu Qingjiao and shouted loudly, “Sister-in-law, we’re here! Who bullied you? My brothers will avenge you.”

Gu Qingjiao was happy when she saw her reinforcements.

“Third brother, you’re here. I am so happy. Quick! Chase these people away!” Gu Qingjiao pointed at Xiao Xinxin, Xiao Lingye, Xiao Lingyu, and Xiao Chengbang. “They’re the ones who caused trouble in front of the shop. Now, my supermarket can’t open.”

“Okay, sister-in-law, leave this matter to us.” San Er patted his chest and said with great loyalty.

After that, Gu Qingjiao pointed at Grandpa Zeng and said with malice, “And this old man, he is too nosy. You should teach him a lesson. Let him understand the price for being too nosy!”

“Okay, sister-in-law, leave everything to us!” San Er promised again.

“Gu Qingjiao, don’t you dare!” Xiao Lingyu shouted coldly. She was furious when she heard Gu Qingjiao order her men to beat up Grandpa Zeng.

San Er noticed Xiao Lingyu when she spoke up. When he saw her face, he blew a whistle and said with a malicious smile, “Yo, where did this beauty come from? Pretty woman, why don’t you come with me? I promise to give you a good life.”

When Xiao Lingye saw these people coming, he quickly ran to her sister’s side. Xiao Chengbang and the others also walked to Xiao Lingyu’s side and surrounded her to protect her.

Therefore, San Er did not notice Xiao Lingyu’s stomach.

When Xiao Lingye heard this hooligan teasing his sister, he immediately shouted angrily, “You hooligan, stay away from my sister!”

He held the wooden stick and looked at San Er warily. If the ruffian made a move, he would smack him.

At this moment, Lei Zhenhu, who had parked his car, walked to the entrance of the supermarket and shouted, “Who came to cause trouble?”

When he saw Xiao Xinxin, his face immediately darkened and he said in a stern voice, “Xiao Xinxin, you don’t work at De Wang Supermarket anymore, and your salary has been paid. Why are you making trouble here? If you have any problem, you can sue me at the Labor Bureau. You must be daydreaming to come to ask me for a double salary. Do you really think I don’t know the Labor contract law?”

Lei Zhenhu didn’t know the law, but he could pretend to know to scare a few country bumpkins!

Lei Zhenhu said fiercely, “I have a friend who is the head of the labor dispute section. When he arrives later, we’ll ask him in person who is at fault for not signing a labor contract!”

Before Lei Zhenhu came, he had contacted Section Chief Qin.

He told Section Chief Qin the situation, and Section Chief Qin said to him, “Don’t worry. My words are the law. Since I say you don’t need to pay compensation, then that is it. These are a bunch of country bumpkins, so what do they know about labor contract law?!”

When Section Chief Qin said this, Lei Zhenhu immediately put his mind at ease and called a few of his brothers.

When Xiao Xinxin saw these people appear, she was a little afraid in her heart. However, since Xiao Lingyu and Xiao Lingye were backing her, she couldn’t surrender. Otherwise, she would disappoint those who had supported her.

Xiao Xinxin mustered up her courage and argued, “My sister graduated from South University. She knows these laws. The law will decide that I’m right.”

“Fine, we’ll wait!” Lei Zhenhu said disdainfully and proudly, “However, let me tell you. Even a university graduate will not change anything. Because this is not up to the law but the Labor Bureau.”

“You…” Xiao Xinxin’s face turned red from Lei Zhenhu’s shameless words.

Xiao Lingyu patted Xiao Xinxin’s shoulder and shook her head. Then, she walked out, looked at Lei Zhenhu, and said coldly, “Birds of a feather do flock together.. The whole family is rotten and arrogant! Fine, Boss Lei, Madam, we’ll wait and see what kind of law the section head of the Labor Bureau will enlighten us with.”
