Reborn to be a mistress, she went crazy killing the legitimate daughter

Chapter 122 The Shen Family Goes to the Marquis' Mansion

"I spent so much money and you gave me such low-quality products. You are relying on your background to bully customers!"

When people around heard about it, they all came over to ask what was going on.

The owner of the clothing store pointed at the cloth on the ground angrily and said, "I spent twenty taels a foot to buy cloth, but when I took it home, I found that the quality was terrible, and it was completely different from what was on the counter. This store was selling it for the better, using cloth worth a few taels of silver to pass off as twenty taels a foot!"

When the people around heard about it, they pointed at the shop and scolded it.

The shopkeeper had already asked someone to invite Shen Yiran.

Shen Yiran was waiting in the house, and upon hearing the news he immediately came over in a carriage.

"Who said our store is good? I have evidence. If you slander us and damage our store's reputation, I will sue you!"

The owner of the clothing store seemed to know that Shen Yiran was the one in charge, and pointed at the cloth on the ground with confidence: "This is the evidence!"

The shopkeeper listened and shook his head helplessly.

Shen Yiran went forward and pulled up the cloth, rubbed it and said, "The eyes of the crowd are sharp. Why don't you come forward and take a look. Is the order in the shop good?"

Then an embroiderer came out, stretched out her hands to rub the cloth, then squatted down to rub other cloths. After checking each piece, she stood up and said impartially: "Boss, have you looked carefully? Why don't you take another closer look?"

The owner of the clothing store heard this and snorted, "Are you a hired agent of the store?"

The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "If you don't believe it, take a look for yourself?"

The owner of the clothing store was a little confused. He bent down to touch it and his eyes widened immediately.

The cloth is soft and smooth, thin and has a subtle fragrance. It is clearly top-quality material, and twenty taels is not too expensive.

what happened?

The fabrics on the counter are clearly rough, dry, and inferior products!

Bai Zhi brought out a chair with an armchair and placed it at the door of the store, and Shen Yiran sat down slowly.

"Boss, are you here to cause trouble?"

"My store has never had any good things happen. If you make up such a story, I will hire a lawyer to sue you in the government."

Some people in the crowd were still confused. They walked up and touched the cloth. They were surprised that the cloth was of such high quality and it was a pity to just throw it on the ground.

"Madam, these fabrics have fallen to the ground. Can you sell them to me at a lower price?"

"I also want!"

The crowd actually started to buy.

Shen Yiran smiled, but the owner of the clothing store just wanted to find a way to escape.

"Boss, why don't you go in and talk to us and ask the shopkeeper to sell the cloth at a lower price and return the money to this boss."

The owner of the clothing store was sweating profusely. How much cheaper could the goods be? This was all the money he had in his store. He would be losing a lot this time!

Someone came to him and said that he saw that his business was not doing well and was willing to provide him with high-quality fabrics at a low price, but he only needed him to do one thing.

At this point, he regrets it so much. He has put himself in trouble!

Shen Yiran didn't ask many questions, but the owner of the clothing store confessed everything.

The person who came to the door was the clerk of the cloth shop, Mrs. Xu's distant cousin Xu Zhiyun.

Xu Zhiyun was originally a scholar, but after studying for several years he failed to even pass the examination to become a scholar, so he had no choice but to move to the city to live with the Xu family.

Xu took the opportunity to place him in the cloth workshop and let him wait for his chance to act.

Just like that, at Xu's instruction, he sold his own good cloth at a low price when transporting the goods, and bought inferior goods from other shops.

He kept telling the shopkeeper who was checking the cloth that Shen Yiran had checked it personally, and said that it would be sold at fifteen taels per foot, and asked him to do as he was told.

Shen Yiran was busy during this period and had not come to the store, so the shopkeeper had no chance to ask him anything and just started selling.

Fortunately, the quality of the goods and the fair prices published are clear to everyone, and so far no one has bought them, so no additional losses have been caused.

But Rong Qingqing stabbed Xu in the back and secretly exposed the matter.

She was probably afraid of the baby in Xu's belly, so she planned to take this opportunity to get rid of Xu as well, so that no one would compete with her for the position of housekeeper.

People's hearts have changed. They will do anything for the sake of profit.

Shen Yiran understood that if he kept giving in, these two people would press on step by step.

We need to find an opportunity to make things clear and bring these things out into the open.

This is a big challenge for Shen Yiran.

She needed to make the whole thing look like she was helpless and had no more patience before revealing it.

Fortunately, someone gave her this opportunity.

When Shen Yiran returned to the mansion after dealing with the trouble at the cloth shop, Qiu Ju came up to him and told him, "Your master is here to visit in person, and the old lady is receiving him. I really want to send someone to look for you!"

Shen Liang comes to visit the Marquis’ Mansion?

It was a bolt from the blue. How could such a thing happen?

Shen Yiran nodded and followed Qiuju to the front hall.

Not only did Shen Liang come himself, he also brought Shen Li and Shen Yunyan.

Shen Yiran, who was standing at the door, couldn't believe his eyes.

Why were Shen Li and Shen Yunyan willing to come to the Marquis' Mansion?

Especially Shen Yunyan, she seems to be in a bad mood now.

That's natural. She was the one who lived here in her previous life. She is as familiar with this place as Shen Yiran.

The old lady was naturally happy.

Although they have been married for more than a year, it is naturally a good thing that Shen Liang is willing to come to visit. The relationship between the two families has eased, and she is not happy for Shen Yiran.

Seeing Shen Yiran stepping into the door, he immediately called out affectionately: "Ranran, your family members are all here today, I am not neglecting them, I am here to accompany them!"

After Shen Yiran heard this, he bowed and thanked them, and then bowed to Shen Liang and others one by one.

Shen Li gave a perfunctory "hmm". When Shen Yunyan heard that she was being called "sister", she said with a sour tone, "Sister is really a very good person. She is doing so well in the Marquis' Mansion."

Xu and Rong Qingqing were both called over to keep the group company. They were already in a bad mood, but now they became focused when they heard Shen Yunyan's words.

Xu cried out, "What my little sister said is true. Your sister is really capable. The old lady likes her very much."

Rong Qingqing sneered, holding the teacup and just smiling without saying anything.

Shen Li smiled faintly and said, "This child has been thoughtful since she was young. Even I don't know what she is thinking. It is also the kindness of the old lady that she can achieve such a result."

Shen Yiran was ridiculed by the family members who came to visit him, but his expression remained calm and he did not show any anger. He was like a silly child who did not fight or argue and just listened.

The old lady was very dissatisfied, but she couldn't say it because everyone who came to her house was a guest, so she had to turn around and talk to Shen Liang.

Shen Liang only glanced at Shen Yiran when he entered the room and hadn't looked at her since then. When Shen Li and Shen Yunyan ridiculed her, he didn't think of coming out to stop them.

It was just an ordinary operation, but today Shen Liang spoke up for her.

"Ran'er has been motherless since childhood, so his personality is a bit dull and his work is mediocre, but I am grateful that he is loved by the old lady and the people in the Marquis' Mansion."

Haha, I guess I’m speaking up for her.

Shen Yiran straightened his expression and put on a more humble look.

Shen Yunyan felt that Shen Yiran was pretending, so she deliberately provoked her, "Sister, you are usually so majestic, but why are you pretending to be gentle in front of the elders today? Why are you so fierce when you teach your sister a lesson? You scared me so much that I had nightmares at night!"

Rong Qingqing burst out laughing and quickly picked up the teacup to cover it up.
