A dream ends life

Dong Liu hurried to Su Ci's door, "Madam."

Su Ci put down the pen in his hand and said, "Come in."

Dong Liu looked unhappy, and Su Ci asked, "What happened?"

Dong Liu said, "Master Bai has not been here. I went there several times but didn't see him. The doorman said that their master had gone out for something."

Su Ci pressed the corners of his eyes and closed them in thought.

Dongliu wanted to say something but stopped himself. Seeing Su Ci's tiredness, he didn't say anything.

Su Ci said, "Dongliu, what else?"

Dong Liu knew that he couldn't hide it from his master, so he said, "Something is wrong in the shop recently. The jewelry style that Leng Cui Pavilion is going to sell recently has appeared in Zhenbao Building. The cloth shop manager came to report that the cloth in the shop is out of stock, and the person sent to urge the delivery has never returned. In addition, there is also the matter of grain. The several shopkeepers who were contacted before have no news now. We must be being targeted."

Su Ci was not surprised when she heard this. She felt something was wrong since Mr. Bai had clearly said he would send someone to sign the contract but then he disappeared without a trace.

"Which shop did the Lengcui Pavilion jewelry appear in? Who is the owner?"

"The owner of Zhenbaolou is the Shi family, and it is now owned by Shi Yuyan, the eldest daughter of the Shi family."

Su Ci hummed, not surprised at all.

Shi Yuyan has a proud personality. How could she just let it go after being humiliated by her that day? She has no power or influence now, and the Shi family is not a group of upright people. They will definitely seize the opportunity to beat her up and eat her alive.

Chunshui asked worriedly, "Then we are attacked from both sides. The Shi family is wealthy and a local tyrant. It won't be easy for them to deal with us."

There is no need for any other tricks. As long as the word gets out that the Shi family is targeting them, those who have cooperated with them will no longer dare to have any dealings with them.

Dongliu also sighed. This time the problem was too big. If things went wrong, they would have to pack up and leave.

Su Ci opened his eyes, which were full of indifference. Chunshui and Dongliu's worries were not unreasonable. According to common sense, they were indeed very passive.

But have they forgotten that they are not without a backer, and that this backer is someone who is short of money.

The Shi family is a big piece of fat meat. Although it is a little difficult to bite, as long as she finds a loophole, the Shi family can collapse!

A thousand-mile long dam can be breached by a single ant hole. Although the Shi family is huge and there are all kinds of birds in the forest, it may seem solid on the surface, but you can only know what's going on inside if you understand it.

Merchants are profit-oriented. How clean can they be for the sake of profit? Let alone the Shi family, even if they own a vast territory, it will still be the property of the winner after fighting for it.

After a long separation, there will be reunion, and after a long reunion, there will be separation. Nothing is immutable, Shi family? Very good, let her see if the blade of the eldest princess is sharp!

After pondering for a long time, Su Ci began to tell Dongliu and Chunshui what to do one by one.

Dongliu took the order and went to Lengcui Pavilion. On the second day, he received the news. Su Ci was sitting upstairs, looking at the little girl in front of her.

"Little Four, right?"

The girl trembled and knelt down in front of Su Ci with a plop.

"Madam, please spare my life! I know I was wrong, please spare my life."

"I think I've been very kind to you. I remember I once said that if anyone of you has any trouble, you can tell me. If you need money, you can also come to me, but I will never tolerate people who sell me out for money. If you have nothing to say, you can only go to the government office."

Xiao Si was so scared that he burst into tears. In the end, he had no choice but to tell the truth.

It turned out that a young man from the Treasure Pavilion often came to see Zhao Xiaosi. After a while, Zhao Xiaosi was dizzy with his sweet words.

This girl is a fool, and what she did can be easily found out.

A cleaning girl always runs upstairs for no reason. Anyone who sees her will look at her twice. But she can still eat and drink as if nothing happened. It's really amazing.

How blind must the young man at Zhenbao House be to find such a person to work for him.

"Do you like that boy very much? Do you like him so much that you are willing to betray me and disregard your own safety for him?"

Zhao Xiaosi didn't dare to speak, and Su Ci didn't wait for her to answer, and said directly: "Do something for me, and I will fulfill your wish, and give you the indenture of that young man."

Zhao Xiaosi's face was covered with snot and tears. He looked at Su Ci in shock, feeling a little dizzy.

Was she too afraid of having an illusion? How come she heard the lady say that she would give the boy to her? She, she could have the boy?

The little girl couldn't digest Su Ci's words.

But Su Ci had no intention of wasting time talking to her. It would be like talking to a deaf person if he tried to reason with such a fool. Even if she changed at that time, she would still be exploited in the future.

Since she can be used by others, why can't she be used by herself? Such a stupid person is the most deceptive when he deceives others!

Zhao Xiaosi walked out of the room in a daze, still feeling like she was stepping on cotton. Oh my god! The young man had only told her that as long as she was obedient, he would find a way to marry her, but it was not certain whether he could marry her or not.

But the madam actually said that she wanted to give the young waiter to her. Zhao Xiaosi blushed. The young waiter was hers. Wouldn't she have to betray the madam and do something against her conscience, and she could still be with the young waiter. The madam was such a good person, a very good person!

Zhao Xiaosi decided that she must work hard for the Madam. She felt very conflicted when she betrayed the Madam, but she had no pressure no matter what she did for the Madam. She liked the waiter, but she was not his master, so there was nothing wrong with cheating him!

She wants to redeem herself by making amends for her crime, she wants to be the madam's right-hand man, she wants the madam to see her good qualities, and when the young servant gets the job, she will serve the madam together with the young servant!

Zhao Xiaosi burst into laughter and ran downstairs to sweep the floor.

Su Ci rubbed his temple with a headache, "Who bought this girl?"

The shopkeeper quickly said, "Madam, when we were selecting people, we already had enough people, but the matchmaker persuaded us to give them away for free."

Su Ci looked up at the shopkeeper, who felt very guilty.

They would strictly screen the people they bought, and this girl was the only one he got for a bargain, but he didn't expect that something would go wrong.

"When Xiao Si was a child, she had a fever and survived a near-death experience, but her brain has been a little bit slow since then. Her parents disliked her and sold her. I felt sorry for her, so I brought her back. It's all my fault, please punish me, Madam."

This man has no brains, but he has healthy hands and feet, so he can still do some rough work. On the one hand, it can provide more people for dispatch, and on the other hand, it can be considered a good deed. The shopkeeper had to admit that he would suffer a great loss if he tried to gain a small advantage.

Su Ci was speechless. He didn't expect that everyone in their shop was fooled by a stupid person.

Because of her flaws, everyone is defenseless against her. At this moment, what mentality should she have to express herself?

I sighed in my heart at the scheming of the young man under Shi Yuyan. He was really good at calculating people's hearts!

The young man said that he was wronged: except for this silly girl, no one in Lengcui Pavilion was willing to pay attention to him, and he had no choice!
