Li grabbed Jiang Fu and punched and kicked her.
She was risking her life today. She had been humiliated by Jiang Fu anyway, so she might as well vent her anger first!
The shops in the Hou Mansion are her lifeblood! If it hadn't been for the decline of the shop and the difficulty in making a living for the family, how could he have been in such a hurry to marry Qi Chengxu.
After finally marrying a capable eldest daughter-in-law, the Hou family lived a good life, but why did it suddenly happen like this!
"Mom! Calm down! Don't do anything!"
Qi Chengxu was still confused. Seeing Jiang Fu's hairpins scattered on the ground, he stopped Li anxiously.
"You, tell me! Are you and the shopkeeper in cahoots with each other? Are you the one who caused this mess with me?"
Li Shi pointed at Jiang Fu with a trembling finger and asked.
"Sister-in-law! I was wronged. I was also deceived by him. How did I know that this face was fake!"
Jiang Fu cried: "Sister-in-law! This is all the shopkeeper's fault! The top priority is to chase him back first and get back the things in the shop!"
With tears in her eyes, she glanced at Qi Chengxu without wanting to speak.
Qi Chengxu felt heartbroken. After a second thought, he looked at Ji Shu angrily.
"Auntie just took over the shop business. Ji Shu should be the shopkeeper of Yunxiafang! Look who you hired! You should be responsible for this matter!"
Ji Shu looked at Xitao calmly.
Xitao: "Young master, please don't accuse the young madam unjustly! Since Miss Fu took over the shop, all the shopkeepers and assistants have been replaced! Now they are all hired by Miss Fu herself! Now that she has run away, you should ask her where she came from Invite three religions and nine schools of thought!"
Qi Chengxu was suddenly speechless.
"I was also deceived by him! That guy said that he once worked for the richest man in Taiyuan Prefecture. How did I know that he was a liar!"
Jiang Fu was so broken that she sat down and cried bitterly.
Everyone around laughed and whispered: "What a fool! The boss can't even find out the details of the people working under him! You deserve to be cheated!"
Some people couldn't stand it and sighed, and persuaded Mrs. Li: "Mrs. Hou! You have such a good daughter-in-law as the young lady, what do you believe this girl is? Why don't you ask the young lady to go back and clean up this mess quickly?"
Now Li could only count on Ji Shu. This sudden bolt from the blue woke her up from Jiang Fu's deception.
Yunxiafang is like this, but I don't know what other shops are like.
She stepped forward and threw herself into Ji Shu's arms, "Shu'er, my mother can't help you. My mother has been deceived by her!"
"Mom! Fu, maybe this is my first time doing something, so I made a mistake. It's not considered a lie!"
Qi Chengxu helped Jiang Fu up and couldn't help but say.
The guests around him looked at him with complicated eyes. Ji Shu chuckled softly and said in a good-tempered way:
"What the second master said is that I was just as busy when I handed the gift to you. Let's go back to the house first before talking about anything else. Madam, I forgive you for disturbing your banquet. I will send someone to give you an apology gift on weekdays."
The group was sent out of Jingkang Bo's Mansion, Qi Chengxu supported Jiang Fu and wanted to send her to mount her horse.
Mrs. Li strode forward and pulled her off the ground.
"After such a big incident, you still have the nerve to take a carriage back home?"
Jiang Fu sat down on the ground, her eyes flashing with hatred, and she said softly: "I'll just walk back, sister-in-law, to calm down."
"Mom, you..."
Qi Chengxu didn't have time to plead, so he was pushed by Mrs. Li into the carriage.
Back at the Hou Mansion, Song's mother was waiting at the door. When she saw Ji Shu, she stepped forward and said, "Young madam, please go to the Fushou Hall quickly. The old lady is very angry."
Fu Shoutang
Snapped--
"Where is that bitch?!"
The old lady threw the teacup on the ground, her chest heaving with anger, and she was breathing heavily.
"Those merchants are like dog-skin plasters! They won't leave without giving money! A large crowd of people gathered outside the Hou Mansion to watch! I, the Wu Ding Hou Mansion, have lost all face! I paid her five thousand taels of silver! Five thousand taels of silver! two!!"
The old lady fell on the couch and kept stroking her chest.
"Don't be angry, madam! Smell the soothing incense."
Mother Song hugged the incense burner, and the old lady took two puffs before she calmed down.
The handkerchief in Mrs. Li's hand was torn into rotten leaves, and she said angrily: "Old madam, you don't know that my daughter-in-law also lied to her! The hair she ordered for her daughter-in-law said it was an imperial green jadeite, but it was actually an imperial green jadeite on the black market. Fake stone! She made my daughter-in-law unable to lift her head in Jingkangbo Mansion today!"
"I left her at the door of the uncle's house and asked her to walk back by herself."
The old lady waved her hands repeatedly, "It's no longer possible to ask her to continue taking care of the accounts. Shu'er, I still have to rely on you. I will ask you to return all those account books to you tomorrow. Don't hold a grudge and blame me and your mother."
The old lady's eyes were shining, and she secretly looked at Ji Shu's expression.
Whenever she showed the slightest hint of caution, the old lady would be severely punished. After all, in the eyes of this family, their thunder, rain, and dew should all be a favor to Ji Shu.
Ji Shu frowned slightly, a little embarrassed.
"Old madam, if something like this happens, my daughter-in-law should have the duty to share the worries with the Hou Mansion, but...but my daughter-in-law is more than willing...but not strong enough."
"What do you mean by this?" Li was furious.
Xitao stepped forward, knelt down and said, "Madam, the young lady has been acclimatized since she came back from Yan'an Mansion. She vomited for half the night last night. She went to the doctor to see her, and she said that she was suffering from physical fatigue due to hard work over the years. I am very weak! In addition, I have been traveling from south to north for several months, which has caused me to fall ill. If I don’t rest peacefully, I may be in danger of my life!”
The three people in the hall had different expressions. The old lady looked at Ji Shu with suspicion in her eyes.
Mrs. Li's eyes rolled up to the sky. She didn't believe these nonsense, and her poor health was all an excuse!
Ji Shu held his forehead and said weakly: "If the old lady and mother don't believe it, please ask the government doctor to ask."
The old lady glanced at Mother Song.
After a while, the doctor arrived with a medicine box. After kneeling down and saluting, the old lady asked: "I heard that Shu'er was in poor health. Why didn't you report such a big thing?"
"Back to Madam, the Young Madam didn't allow the villain to say anything, for fear that you and Madam would be worried."
"Is there a quick cure for this disease?"
"You can only adjust it slowly. Be calm and don't work all day long. There is no quick fix. The fastest...it will take a year or two to recover."
Jiang Fu happened to come to take off her hairpin to apologize. When she heard this, her gloomy face suddenly brightened!
Whether Ji Shu is pretending or real, it is a good thing for her!
Her failure is only temporary, she can definitely turn around, just give her some time!
"Mother! Mother, please give Fu'er another chance! Fu'er will definitely make a good living!"
Jiang Fu rushed into the inner room, knelt forward and hugged the old lady's thigh.
The old lady held her forehead and looked ugly.
She was silent for a moment and asked the doctor: "Looking after the accounts and housekeeping is considered a hard work, but teaching others is not considered a hard work, right? From tomorrow onwards, Jiang Fu will be asked to go to Shu'er's room to learn how to run a household. Since Shu'er is not feeling well, she will learn how to run a household every day. It’ll be ready in an hour.”
The doctor frowned and said, "Old madam, worrying too much will endanger your health!"
"Talking her like a porcelain doll! I think you are trying to bluff her!" Ms. Li stood up with a mean look on her face.
