After farming, I opened a family tree

Yizhichun is extremely popular, and the soap in Xiangniangzi’s shop is about to run out of stock.

Madam Xiang was taking people to count the inventory when she saw a group of young men in blue shirts coming in through the door.

I guess he is here to buy another spring flower, so I opened my mouth with a smile.

"My dear young gentlemen, the Yizhichun in the shop has been sold out. If you want to..."

"You vile woman!"

Before Xiang Niang finished her words, she heard the young man in the lead cursing viciously.

"Brother Wen's poems are so good, but you, a businessman full of money, are using them to make a profit. It's so despicable!"

"That's right, stealing poetry and literature to gain fame and reputation. Brothers, destroy this shop for me!"

As he said that, he started to clear out all the remaining soaps on the shelf.

"Hey, you guys..."

Madam Xiang was startled by the other party's sudden recklessness.

"Crack!"

Xiang Niangzi's shop was full of women, who were not as tall or strong as these young men and could not stop them at all.

The ground was covered with soap.

The other party was not even satisfied and stomped on it hard.

Soap made using traditional methods is naturally softer.

But in just a moment, the shop was in a mess.

"I'll smash your shop and never open it again! You're a woman of such bad character. Anyone who buys from you is an accomplice in the theft of poetry."

The young man's voice was so loud that many people gathered at the door of the shop in an instant.

"So he stole someone else's poetry!"

"I'm a woman running a shop, and my business is so good. It must be shameful."

"Look, it's a good thing I didn't buy it."

"I haven't bought any either. I just can't stand women showing their faces in public!"

“But this soap is really useful!”

"You are the promoter hired by the other party!"

......

Since Xiang Niangzi opened her soap shop, business has been booming every day. It has become the best-performing shop on this street, bar none.

There are already many jealous shop owners nearby, and now they are taking advantage of the situation to add insult to injury.

"You students are being unreasonable. Today, you damaged my things and ruined my shop's reputation. Either pay the price, restore the original condition, and apologize. Otherwise, I will report you to the police."

Shen Wen was hiding behind the crowd. When he heard that Madam Xiang was actually going to report to the police, he suddenly panicked. Just as he was about to speak, someone else spoke first.

"Okay, report it to the police. I'm just worried you won't dare to do so!"

"I want to see how you, a woman, can confuse right and wrong."

As he said that, he dragged Shen Wen out.

"Brother Wen, don't be afraid. Justice is in the hearts of the people. We haven't done anything wrong. They should be the ones worried."

Shen Wen frowned and spoke with pity.

"I just think they may have just taken the wrong path. We don't need to be like this. After all, it's not easy for women to survive."

"Brother Wen, you are just too kind. People have made a lot of money with your poems."

"And you're still asking for compensation? Bah! We were already being incredibly lenient by not asking you to give up your ill-gotten gains, and you, a woman, still dare to demand compensation!"

"If you really dare to report this to the police today, I will really look up to you!"

When Madam Xiang saw Shen Wen, there was nothing she didn't understand.

She had heard Shen Tang say that the first and second branches of the Shen family were not on good terms, but she had not expected that such a clean-looking young man would actually encourage his classmates to do such a thing.

Poor idiots, they don’t even realize they are being used as guns.

"Then please follow me to the government office!"

They are just a few young students who have never experienced any hardships, but they really think they are big shots.

Madam Xiang took one person to the yamen, and the rest stayed in the shop to look after the store.

Madam Xiang walked in front, followed by a group of people.

As the victim, Shen Wen was surrounded by several other students, and behind him followed many onlookers.

The county government office is not far away and it only takes a quarter of an hour to get there.

Qingshan Town was considered to be a fairly stable town, so when the yamen runners saw a large group of people walking towards the county government office, they hurried in to report.

"Boom boom boom!"

The drums are beating.

County Magistrate Lin sat at the top, looking at the people standing in the hall, somewhat confused.

"Sir, I am the owner of Tangji Soap Shop. I want to sue these students for smashing my shop and ruining my reputation..."

"Sir, that's not the case. This woman colluded with Brother Wen's cousin and his family to steal his poems and use them for profit!"

"We scholars are wise and fair in our fight against injustice. We hope you will make the decision!"

When the students saw that Xiang Niang was the first to speak, they became even angrier and immediately interrupted her.

County Magistrate Lin frowned. Why are these students so impetuous?

"You speak first."

County Magistrate Lin pointed to Shen Wen, who was silent in the crowd but was pushed to the front as the victim.

"Your Excellency, I am Shen Wen from Shenjia Village, and I am currently studying at the academy in town."

Shen Wen clenched his palms and replied that he had selfish motives.

First, say that you are a scholar, and I believe the county magistrate will have some favor towards you.

"I came to the academy today and heard everyone in the city talking about a certain shop's poetry. My classmate told me about it, and I learned that someone had stolen the semi-finished product I had stumbled upon by chance, and was using it to sell goods."

"My classmate Renyi was outraged and angry, and acted impulsively. But Shopkeeper Xiang not only didn't acknowledge his fault, but also threatened me and reported me to the police. This is simply alarmist!"

Xiang Niang saw that Shen Wen completely shirked his responsibility with just a few words.

Smashing the shop and tarnishing the reputation was said to be a bit impulsive.

"Are you talking about the poem 'Jiangnan has nothing, so I give you a branch of spring?'"

County Magistrate Lin studied hard and passed the imperial examination. He has recently become fond of these poems.

Moreover, it is obvious from these poems that they could only be written by people of noble character and lofty aspirations.

Looking at the people in the hall, one is a female business owner and the other is a student.

Although, County Magistrate Lin felt that someone who could write such poems should not be unknown in Qingshan Town.

But comparing the two, he would rather believe that the poem was written by this student.

"You said you wrote this poem. As far as I know, this poem has a common flaw: it only has one sentence. Since you said you knew it, I believe you can write a complete poem."

"Your Excellency, this is the woman's cunning. The reason I didn't bring out this poem before is because I wrote it out of inspiration, and only half of the good lines were there. I wanted to fill in the gaps, but I always felt that they didn't match, so I put them aside at home.

"I originally kept it in the study at home, when the family had not yet been divided. But when I returned home after the academy was closed for vacation, the family had already been divided, and the study belonged to the eldest wife."

"I originally thought I had just let them go by mistake, but when I returned to the academy today, I discovered that these poems had been stolen!"

County Magistrate Lin frowned.

"Then who do you think stole your poems and sold them?"

"Your Excellency, I dare not speculate, but that study is now the home of my cousin Shen Tang."

County Magistrate Lin glanced at the yamen runner and

"You guys go to Shenjia Village and bring Shen Tang here."
