The Little Lucky Girl of the Hunter Family

Chapter 169: Sweet and Bitter

He never expected that Jiang Yao would bow deeply to him as soon as they met.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault. I didn't teach those helpers well, which led to what happened today. I don't know if you let your granddaughter taste the candied haws you bought today?"

When Zhang Yuanwai heard Jiang Yao talking about Hongling and his granddaughter, his expression changed.

"My granddaughter is studying in the school. She hasn't finished school yet and hasn't eaten yet. Is there something wrong with this red fruit?"

"Well, this, this is made from hawthorn berries, also known as hawthorn berries."

"That man named 'Zhonghe', when he came to see your doctor, overheard that your granddaughter didn't like mountain red, so he never recommended it to you."

"Is that so..." Mr. Zhang slammed the table, full of excitement.

Last time, her granddaughter ate some kind of safflower on the way home, and her body became red and swollen, and she had a rash all over her body, which scared the whole family.

But they all called it that, so Mr. Zhang just felt that the fruit looked familiar but did not recognize it.

There is no way to avoid this. After all, the candy packaging itself has a kind of magical power that makes people puzzled.

Seeing that Mr. Zhang, although somewhat regretful, did not pursue the matter, Jiang Yao finally felt relieved and handed over the gift she had prepared long ago.

"Mr. Zhang, I failed to protect you this time. I hope you will accept it."

As soon as he finished speaking, before Mr. Zhang could refuse, a servant brought Zhong He into the mansion.

Seeing that the three people were holding large and small bags, Mr. Zhang's dissatisfaction immediately disappeared. He waved his hand and signaled the three people to leave.

"No need to be so polite. My granddaughter is fine, and it wasn't your fault. I can forgive you."

"But you have to be careful. If my granddaughter was at home today, she might have swallowed the red fruit right now."

After hearing what Zhang Yuanwai said, Lu Xiangyang felt very ashamed. He bowed to Zhang Yuanwai repeatedly, and his words were full of apologies.

"Mr. Zhang, you trusted me so much, but I almost let your granddaughter get hurt. I came to you without your consent."

"I'm sorry, I understand. When I make my first profit, I will make a delicious meal for your granddaughter to make amends for her."

When Mr. Zhang saw that Lu Xiangyang was young but knew how to adapt, he immediately admired him even more.

But considering his own future, Mr. Zhang could only keep the matter to himself and look stern.

"You are such a smart girl, but you actually did something so stupid without telling the manager! I actually believed you! You are such a——"

After saying this, Mr. Zhang was filled with reluctance.

"You know, your boss is just a little girl in her teens. Her success today must be due to her intelligence."

"Besides, I see that you two look very similar, so you must be relatives. How could your boss make it difficult for you to get a job just because you come from a poor family?"

"Since she doesn't let you do this, there must be a reason. You can talk to her and ask her why she wants to do this. You know, if anything happens to my granddaughter, I will never forgive you."

Without further ado, Lu Xiangyang knew what was going on. He bowed to Mr. Zhang again, with a hint of panic in his childish tone.

"Thank you for your reminder. If you really have a problem with me, just punish me. Please don't touch my sister."

When Jiang Yao came out of the shop, she saw Lu Xiangyang with an unhappy look on his face. But now he was protecting her so much, which made her feel very surprised.

But this is normal. After all, he is just a child. What thoughts does he have? What thoughts does he have?

Mr. Zhang thought the same as Jiang Yao.

He touched his beard, his eyes fell on the object on the ground, hesitated for a moment, and in order to prevent the boy from having wild thoughts, he took it.

But these red fruits still have to be returned to them.

My granddaughter is good at everything except her greed. She stops when she sees delicious food.

If she knew that there were such delicious foods at home, she would definitely risk her health and secretly eat a few more.

After doing all this, the few people did not stay in Zhang's house for long. They got on their carriages and returned to their shops.

Jiang Yao looked at Lu Xiangyang with a sad face, put a hand on his shoulder, and handed him the candied haws that Mr. Zhang gave her.

"Eat one." Gong Yexiao looked at her and said with a smile.

"What?" Lu Xiangyang was stunned, not knowing what Jiang Yao was going to do.

But today he was too confident and made another mistake. He didn't dare to refute Jiang Yao's words "no", so he had to lower his head and put one in his mouth.

"How about it?"

"Sweet and sour." Lu Xiangyang hung his head and answered weakly.

It was this sweet and sour candied haws that caused him to suffer a great loss today. Now he has to eat candied haws again, and he feels really distressed.

But Jiang Yao seemed not to hear the displeasure in his words and touched his furry head.

"Hawthorn berries are just like when you first learned to do business. Once you determined your purpose, you felt very happy. However, there are still many difficulties and challenges to realize your dream."

"If you can defeat him in one move, you will be very happy. But if your questions cannot be answered, like today, it was just an accident, then you will feel a little sad."

"Everything has two sides. What happened today was indeed your fault, but you also realize your shortcomings. As long as you can correct them in the future and don't repeat the same mistakes, you will feel better."

Originally, he was thinking whether Jiang Yao would scold him, because for such a serious matter, Jiang Yao would be beaten at best and imprisoned at worst.

But now, Jiang Yao not only did not scold him, she didn't even have a trace of anger. Instead, she talked to him reasonably, which made him feel a little warm.

For some reason, Lu Xiangyang, who had already made up his mind not to eat candied haws anymore, suddenly stretched out his hand and stuffed a candied haws into Jiang Yao's mouth.
