Cui Wendong smiled, "It's just a piece of cake, Madam Xia, don't worry about it."
Xia Mingyue nodded slightly, then frowned and said to Zhuang Cui beside her, "The arrival of these people seems a little strange. Let's have a few people follow them and see what's going on."
Logically speaking, Manager Fu had informed Prefect Zhang about this, and in Changzhou City, no one would deliberately make things difficult for Xia Ji's business.
And this is indeed the case during this period.
Xia Ji's business is very peaceful, and even the probability of encountering difficult customers is extremely low.
At this moment, someone suddenly came to the door and went straight to the mooncake stall. Something felt a little wrong.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong. Send someone to investigate and find out the reason behind it, only then can you feel at ease.
Zhuang Cui understood and quickly asked someone to do it.
Manager Fu was not at Yipin Guo today because he had something to do. After receiving the order, the head manager Zhou Renteng hurriedly sent a capable servant to handle the matter.
Cui Wendong panicked when he saw this and said hurriedly, "They are just a few ruffians. I think it shouldn't be a big deal. If Madam Xia sends people to go there, and those three people get desperate and clash with Madam Xia's people, wouldn't it be more trouble than gain?"
"I do have a few skilled attendants here. If Madam Xia is really worried, why don't you let me send someone over?"
"I am already very grateful to Master Cui for helping me just now. Why would I bother him again?"
Xia Mingyue raised her eyebrows slightly, "Please rest assured, Master Cui, the people we sent out all have some skills and will not be at a disadvantage."
"Really? If so, I was overthinking it." Cui Wendong smiled slightly, but his eyes glanced around, seeming a little uneasy.
Xia Mingyue's heart sank when she saw this, but she still had a big smile on her face. "Mr. Cui helped me today, and I am grateful. I would like to invite Mr. Cui to have lunch at Yipin Guo as a token of my gratitude. I wonder if Mr. Cui would do me the honor?"
It seems that he has won Xia Mingyue's favor.
It turns out that the hero saving the beauty trick works everywhere.
Especially for a woman like this who is in distress.
You have to become a light in her heart to capture her completely, and then you can become his tool and let him do whatever he wants with you.
Cui Wendong was so happy that the corners of his mouth curled up, "In that case, I won't refuse Madam Xia's kindness."
Then he added, "Even if this is Madam Xia's good intention, I can't be so arrogant. I still have to pay the money I owe. I can't let Madam Xia spend so much money."
You have to pay for the meal, and you will have to pay more later.
Businessmen love money the most.
And in Cui Wendong's opinion, since Xia Mingyue is going to do business in the public eye, she not only likes money, but also is very short of it.
Seeing someone so generous, people will definitely be impressed by him.
In short, he had to do this.
After hearing this, Xia Mingyue rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Originally, I should be the host, but Master Cui said so. If I insist, it will spoil Master Cui's mood. So let's do as Master Cui says."
It was just as he guessed!
Cui Wendong's eyes lit up and he bowed again, "Madam Xia, you are welcome."
"I still have a mooncake stall to look after, Mr. Cui, please go first." Xia Mingyue said with a smile. "Madam Xia, please take care of your own things first, and don't worry about my affairs."
After Cui Wendong finished speaking, Xia Mingyue smiled and nodded, then called the waiter of Yipintang and told him to entertain them well and bring out the best dishes of Yipintang.
After responding with a smile, Cui Wendong followed the waiter into the Yipintang restaurant.
The smile on Xia Mingyue's face disappeared visibly, and then she called Zhou Renteng over.
"Madam Xia, what do you want me to do?" Zhou Renteng asked respectfully.
"Send people to find those three scoundrels and get to the bottom of this matter." Xia Mingyue said, "Also send people to find Manager Fu and inform him of this matter. If Manager Fu has nothing else to do, please come back as soon as possible."
She always felt that this matter was not serious and she needed to meet with Manager Fu to discuss it and see how to prepare for the response.
"Yes." After receiving the order, Zhou Renteng immediately sent a few more people to do things according to Xia Mingyue's instructions.
Xia Mingyue then breathed a sigh of relief, and together with Zhuang Cui and Jiang Zhuguo, she packed up the mooncake stall and continued selling mooncakes.
Many people came for Xia Ji mooncakes, and they didn’t care about the small disturbance at the time, and just continued to buy mooncakes.
Occasionally, someone would talk about how the Cui family's boys had just subdued the bully, and they would describe it vividly and with great enthusiasm.
The person who was narrating the story was talking non-stop, and the people listening beside him were also very interested and couldn't stop asking, "And then, what then?"
The narrator was startled by the sudden question. When he realized that there was a thin young man beside him, he jumped to the side again. "Who are you? Why are you following me?"
"Me?" An Yunji pointed at himself and then scratched the back of his head. "I'm just passing by. I followed you because you told a good story..."
As he said this, An Yunji smiled embarrassedly.
The man saw that An Yunji was young and looked stupid, but he got to the point when he opened his mouth. He immediately laughed and said, "No, no, my eloquence is just like this. I can't compare with those storytellers."
"So you're not a storyteller?" An Yunji was a little disappointed. "You told such a good story, but I thought you were a storyteller. I wanted to ask if I could tell the story again."
The man became even happier after hearing this, and waved his hands repeatedly, "I'm not a storyteller, but this is not a story, it's a true story, it just happened, I saw it with my own eyes!"
"Is it true?" An Yunji was quite surprised. "There are still people who are looking for trouble in the streets nowadays?"
"Yes." The man nodded repeatedly, and sighed, "But fortunately, Master Cui came to our aid, scaring those hooligans so much that they rolled over and crawled on the ground. It was so satisfying just watching!"
"This Mr. Cui is really a good person." An Yunji agreed and asked, "What happened next?"
"What did you mean later? Later, the thugs were driven away and everyone was happy."
"I'm asking, since Mr. Cui has helped, why doesn't the stall owner have any response?" An Yunji asked.
"You asked this. Yes, Madam Xia was very polite and wanted to invite Master Cui to Yipin Guo for dinner. However, Master Cui was even more polite. He just said that he would not refuse Madam Xia's kindness, but he still had to pay for it himself. Tsk tsk, this Master Cui is really..."
"You mean, the owner of the mooncake stall is surnamed Xia?" An Yunji interrupted the other party.
"Yes, my last name is Xia."
The last name is Xia...
An Yunji paused and said, "Excuse me, how do I get to Xia's mooncake stall?" (End of this chapter)
