Su Xiaoxiao exclaimed, “You’re saying that ah, they did send people to warn us, but we won the fight ah.”
Wei Ting said indifferently, “You only win once, there’s no guarantee that they won’t come for the second or the third time. Are you not worried that they will have another nasty approach?”
Su Xiaoxiao grabbed a washed sweet potato and started dicing it, “Even if I worry about it, will they just stop? They won’t, right? So as you can see, time passes whether you worry about it or not. Being happy is a day, being unhappy is also a day. So why don’t we just choose to be happy? We should think of solutions, not ‘oh my god, I’m so scared’. Fear is the most internal and useless emotion in the world. Besides, isn’t there a saying ‘counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir*’? I’m so smart, how could I be afraid of such tiny Jinji?”
*Counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir (idiom) : no matter what method the other party uses, there is always a corresponding way to deal with it.
If she couldn’t even handle Jinji, there would be no need for her to do any business in the future, just relaxing at home ah!
It was rare for Wei Ting not to rebuke her with a harsh tone.
Su Xiaoxiao blinked and looked at Wei Ting with sparkling eyes, “Are my words very philosophical? Very touching to you? Make you impressed with me and feel regret for not meeting earlier?”
Wei Ting: “……”
——
The matter with Jinji was not over yet.
Su Xiaoxiao closed the stall at the end of early hour*, and the thugs sent by the Shopkeeper He caught up with them after a quarter of an hour.
*early hour : 07.00 – 09.00 AM, known as the time to have breakfast, the time for ancients to go to court.
Shopkeeper He was very confident.
They were a few experts he hired from Fucheng with a lot of money.
They were specially hired as guards for influential families in Fucheng, and they were usually hired to intimidate people.
But unexpectedly, they were hired to deal with this pair of siblings who came from the village.
It was really killing a chicken with a cook’s knife*.
*an overkill.
-Cook’s knife / chef’s knife : is a cutting tool used in food preparation, it was originally designed primarily to slice and disjoint large cuts of beef.
However, he waited until evening. And when Jinji was almost close, he still hadn’t seen those people return after finishing the task.
He called his trusted waiter, “Where are the people?”
The waiter said, “Maybe they’re on the way?”
Shopkeeper He coldly said, “Didn’t you say they lived nearby?”
The waiter muttered, “From what I’ve inquired, it is not far away. Maybe the information I inquired about was incorrect.”
As they were talking, the man with triangular eyes came upstairs in a disheveled state.
-Triangular eyes
Seeing his face beaten up to the point his own father might not even recognize him, Shopkeeper He and the waiter’s eyebrows jumped at the same time.
“How did you end up like this?” The waiter asked.
The man with triangular eyes told everything that had happened.
Shopkeeper He looked suspicious, “They’re just three insignificant villagers, are you trying to deceive me?”
Man with triangular eyes swore to the sky, “If I tell any lies, I’m going to have an impaired son!”
Shopkeeper He was furious.
It was acceptable if a few stupid local thugs were lost, but they were experts he brought from Fucheng ah, and they couldn’t even beat three country bumpkins?
One boy, one fat girl, and one…… farmer with a butcher’s knife.
It was unbelievable no matter how you think about it!
Shopkeeper He was in a terrible mood!
The building was leaking and it rained all night, causing big trouble at Jinji!
They didn’t have egg yolks anymore! They couldn’t make egg yolk pastry!
-Egg yolk pastry
Shopkeeper He said impatiently, “It’s fine if you can’t make it! Aren’t there still other snacks?! It’s not like Jinji will lose business if there’s one less snack!”
The bookkeeper reminded him, “But, didn’t we receive the order from Landlord Qi’s family? It’s for Landlord Qi’s mother’s 70th birthday, they let our Jinji make the snacks, and among them were the wife cakes and egg yolk pastry, which Landlord Qi personally asked.”
-Wife cakes
Shopkeeper He frowned, “When did you take that order?”
The bookkeeper said, “It was when Shopkeeper Sun was here.”
Landlord Qi was the most respected lord in Xinghua Town. He was very rich, and his son was an official in Fucheng. Even the country magistrate treated him well.
If they messed up the Qi family’s birthday banquet, Jinji’s fate would be tragic.
