Dressed as a middle-aged mistress, I want to lie down every day

Mo Yuanji dragged him into two shops after passing by, so he didn't want to go to East Street for the time being.

Who knew that another rumor would spread that whoever invited Mr. Mo into the shop, sat down and tried his food, his business would be good.

Following the crowd, all the owners on this street were guarding their doors, and some even sent waiters to guard the intersections. If they saw Mr. Meng, they would be the first to snatch him away.

When Mo Yuanji found out, he thought to himself that something was wrong, knowing that someone was behind this. Even those rumors that had been spread before were fueled by someone.

Although it is all beneficial to him, it is not a good phenomenon.

He originally planned to buy the shops next to Yingkelai, so he decided to wait and see what would happen.

Mo Yuanji went to see his daughter.

Mo Chenxi is in a weak physical condition now. Although he is not as weak as the rumors outside, it is not easy for him to go out.

All the sources of information can only be my father or Mrs. Zhao, and the information she asked Mother Wang to inquire about.

She listened to what her father said and agreed with his guess, but she couldn't guess what the person behind it wanted to do.

Could it be someone my father had offended in the past?

Mo Chenxi forgot a word, which is venting anger on others.

Prince Weixing's brother-in-law Qiu Guanghao took the daughter of Chang Dong's concubine as his concubine. When Chang Dong's wife hanged herself, although he sent the concubine away, he was scolded by his brother-in-law.

Later, the Queen Mother found out and called my sister into the palace to give her a scolding.

Qiu Guanghao was scolded by his sister again. He was so angry that he wanted to settle the score with Chang Dong's family. Chang Dong's family was broken up and everyone left the capital.

Later, Chang Dong's wife possessed a woman. Although he did not see the scene, he was very curious after hearing about it. This kind of thing can only be believed to be true, not false.

However, it was also rumored that Mo Yuanji had enough yang energy to suppress the ghost, and the woman who was possessed was his daughter.

This is something to think about.

Qiu Guanghao sent someone to inquire. If he inquired, he would definitely get more details than the two bosses.

He knew it might have been a coincidence before, but Mo Yuanji took advantage of this coincidence and wanted to buy the shop at a low price.

Qiu Guanghao sneered. Well then he would help Mo Yuanji. After he bought it at a low price, he would see what kind of business he would do. Then he would make him lose everything.

There are some people who don't want others to have a good life just because they themselves don't have a good life. Mo Yuanji was just being taken out on.

There was another person, Geng Yongchang, the brother of one of the favorite concubines of the Duke of Song. He sent people to pretend to have encountered a ghost and was beaten, which damaged the reputation of the Duke of Song.

Geng Yongchang wanted to buy the Yingkelai shop at a low price, but was later scolded by his sister, who forbade him to even consider buying the Yingkelai shop no matter how high or low the price was.

He was angry and would target anyone who bought a shop.

Mo Yuanji bought it, but he didn't want the 30% discount. Instead, he paid 40% off, which made Geng Yongchang very angry.

If it were him, he would at least reduce the price to 20%.

I am even more angry about Yuan Ji.

Isn't he a good man? Fine, let him continue to be a good man. Let him buy the two shops next to Yingkelai at a low price. When he does business, he will definitely make him bankrupt.

After finding out the situation of the Mo family, he found out that one of their sons-in-law was a fifth-rank official and was unknown with no background. He took this out on the Mo family.

These two powerful brothers-in-law don't need to do anything else but to fan the flames if there are any rumors.

But Mo Yuanji didn't go out. The two bosses went to Mo's house but didn't see anyone. They said that Mr. Mo had returned to Huai County.

Mo Yuanji did not return to Huai County. He asked his son to entertain the host.

Seeing that the business on East Street was gradually getting better, the two owners thought that it would be okay not to sell the business. They could just continue to run the business and sell it later if someone found a buyer at a suitable price.

Who would have thought that after they opened for business for one day, one of their shops had a broken water tank in the yard, filling the entire yard with water; another one caught fire that night, burning not only their own shop but also the reception area, which was in a mess.

Some people also wondered if it was man-made, but with so many people watching the Yingkelai shop, it was not easy to get anything done. The Mo family didn't seem to have the ability to do so, and even if they had the ability, they would not burn down their own shop.

There is only one possibility. The people next door to Yingkelai might have offended the Chang family, and Mrs. Chang is not letting them have an easy life. Didn’t Mrs. Chang say that when she possessed the spirit that day, she would repay kindness with kindness and revenge with revenge?

For a while, people on East Street were talking about it again. Those who had spoken ill of the Chang family behind their backs and those who had had conflicts with Mrs. Chang hurried to the temple to burn incense and burn paper at the crossroads at night.

Only Qiu Guanghao was clapping his hands with joy at home.

He had someone do it, but he didn't expect the wind to be so strong that night that the Yingkelai was also burned.

"Serves me right! Serves me right! Looks like God is on my side."

Qiu Guanghao talked to himself and drank tea happily.

He just wanted to make it difficult for Yingkelai to do business in the two shops next door and sell them to Mo Yuanji at a low price.

Keep spreading the rumor, only Mo Yuanji can calm Mrs. Chang down.

He also asked the broker to deliberately tell the two bosses that if they didn't sell it at a low price, their lives would be in danger and no one else would buy it, so they went to ask Mo Yuanji for help.

There was a shop owner who was forced to sell his shop by his old mother. It happened that his shop burned down, and his mother was so scared that she told the truth.

She invited Mrs. Chang to her home and deliberately let slip that Mr. Chang had a second wife, just to cause trouble in the Chang family.

She also said that it was her daughter-in-law who told her about the Chang family.

When the boss heard what happened from my mother, he was so angry that he beat his wife.

He didn't care about the other owner and ran to Mo Yuanji's house, begging him to sell the shop at a 20% discount.

Mo Yuanji was speechless. Was this a forced sale?

Another shop that was not burned also came and begged for a 70% discount.

Mo Yuanji didn't believe that the shop was burned for no reason, and he didn't believe that it was Mrs. Chang's ghost who did it.

He believed it was man-made, and not by ordinary people.

This makes people think of Wei Xingjun Prince's brother-in-law Qiu Guanghao.

Mo Chenxi was puzzled. "Why would he do this? Does he want to buy the shop? After Dad buys all three shops, he will force Dad to sell it to him?"

Mo Yuanji shook his head and said, "No, I bought Yingkelai at a 40% discount before. One reason was to support Chang's daughter. The other reason was because I was worried something might happen in the future. The kind you described might happen, but it wouldn't be the Duke's brother-in-law. If he took Chang Dong's daughter from the second wife as his concubine, he wouldn't have any plans to take over Yingkelai again, including the shops next door. He couldn't bring shame to the Duke again."

Mo Chenxi said, "Then why is he doing this when he has nothing better to do? What good will it do him if Dad buys the shop at a low price?"

"Those nobles, when someone makes them feel uncomfortable, always look for someone to vent their anger on. If I'm not mistaken, he's the one behind all this, fanning the flames. He let me buy the shop at a low price so I wouldn't take advantage. Then, when I open the shop in the future, he'll let me suffer losses. Who made him let me buy the shop that embarrassed him? If it wasn't me who bought it, he would do the same to anyone else. Unless it was someone he couldn't afford to offend, he would just suppress his anger."

Mo Chenxi was silent.

Why did she ask her father if he was sure he could keep the restaurant going before she opened it?

Isn’t it easy for a noble person to crush an ant to death?

In the eyes of ordinary people, the Mo family and the He family are official families, but in the eyes of nobles, they are nothing, like ants.
