I'm dressed up as the timid eldest daughter, and the whole family has to listen to me!
Chapter 249: Playing the peacemaker?
After saying this, Su Banxia left without looking back, leaving Apple standing there in a daze, watching Su Banxia's departing figure, muttering to herself:
"Su Banxia, do you think you're so great? I'm going to show you what I'm made of. I'm better than you, I'm stronger than you. I'll make the second branch of the family regret kicking me out of the house!"
As she spoke, Apple already had a thought in her mind. She was worried that she would have trouble finding work in this unfamiliar county town and would inevitably be cheated.
Now that she saw Su Banxia, she suddenly thought of a perfect candidate: Lou Wangyue, the owner of Wangyue Tower.
Thinking this through, Apple didn't linger and asked around until she arrived at the entrance of Wangyue Tower. Just as she was about to step inside, she saw the servant at the door look her up and down and say disdainfully:
"Young lady, this is a pawnshop. I see your hands are empty. Is there anything you want to pawn? If you don't have anything else, don't come to our shop. It's crowded inside right now. Our manager and owner are busy serving customers."
Seeing that this servant was arrogant and didn't want her to come in, Apple glared at him, crossed her arms, and said unhappily:
"You watchdog, stop blocking my way! Do you know who I am? How dare you talk to me like that!"
Seeing that the servant's tone was unfriendly, daring to call him his watchdog, the young man became unwilling and stepped forward, glaring at him and cursing:
"I don't care who you are, go back to where you came from. I won't let you in through this door, so you can't get in. And you still dare to spout nonsense here? Don't you even know where you are? I'm telling you right now, you're not getting in through this door no matter what. What can you do to me? I'm just a watchdog, so what? Let me tell you, I don't hit women. Don't make me break that rule. Get out of here now!"
Seeing that the servant was unyielding to both soft and hard approaches, Apple simply shouted loudly:
"Get out of my way! Don't you know who my sister is? She's a good friend of the owner of this Moon Gazing Pavilion. I'm here to see your owner today. If you don't let me in and offend him, you'll regret it!"
Upon hearing this, the gatekeeper's eyes darted around, and then he spoke with displeasure:
"You say your sister is a good friend of our boss, so she is! How can I believe you, you liar girl who spouts endless lies? I'm telling you, you'd better leave now and stop bothering people. You really have no sense at all. Don't you know people dislike you? You're still hanging around here, like a leech?"
Upon hearing the servant's words, Apple was filled with rage and glared at him, shouting:
"I'll tell you now, my sister is Su Banxia, and I'm here to see your boss."
As the two were arguing, they heard Jixiang shout from inside to the outside:
Who's shouting outside?
Upon hearing Jixiang's words, the gatekeeper quickly turned around and smiled obsequiously at Jixiang, who was standing inside:
"Oh dear, she's just an ignorant, swindling girl. I'll kick her out right now. Have I disturbed the important people inside? I'm so sorry, so sorry."
Upon hearing this, Jixiang frowned, then strode out. He saw that the person standing at the door was none other than Apple, the one he had met when he accompanied his young master to Su Banxia's house that day.
Isn't this Su Banxia's sister? Right now, her young master is still upset because he offended Su Banxia last time and doesn't know what to do. Why is his sister coming to his door in person now?
Thinking this, Jixiang naturally didn't dare to be negligent. He glared at the gatekeeper and cursed:
"You really don't know your own brain! There are important guests at the door, how could you stop them from entering?"
As he spoke, he looked at the apple standing by the small door and smiled:
"Oh dear, Miss Apple, I'm so sorry. Our servant is new and doesn't know the rules, so he neglected you. Please don't take it to heart. I'll teach him a lesson later. I'll definitely get revenge for you."
As she spoke, Jixiang kicked the servant in the buttocks again. The servant groaned in pain, clutching his backside, but dared not say anything. He never expected that on his first day on duty, he would offend such a noble person. This damned girl, this swindler, didn't look like a young lady from a high-ranking family, so how could her background be so powerful that even Jixiang had to fawn over her?
But at this point, the servant dared not ask any other questions and could only keep bowing and apologizing to the apple.
After all, this was a job I had worked so hard to find, and I couldn't just lose him over such a small thing.
Apple had no intention of arguing with the servant any longer, so she waved her hand and said:
"Alright, stop with your crocodile tears and fake compassion."
Then he turned to look at Jixiang and smiled:
"I've come to see your young master today to discuss something. May I ask if I could come in and meet him?"
Upon hearing Apple's words, Jixiang assumed she had come about her young master and his sister, so he nodded repeatedly and smiled as he welcomed her into the house.
“Miss Apple, please wait here for a moment. My young master has some matters to attend to right now. I will go in and inform him, and he will come out to meet you shortly.”
The apple matter was resolved so smoothly, which improved his mood considerably. He nodded and smiled at Jixiang:
"It's alright, I don't have anything else to do right now. I'll just wait here for Young Master Lou for a while. Tell him not to rush and to come out after he's finished with what he's doing."
Ji Xiang smiled and agreed, then called out from the waiter beside him:
"Come quickly and serve this young lady a pot of good tea."
Then Jixiang went into the inner room to inform Lou Wangyue.
"Young master, a rare guest has arrived outside. They are from the second branch of the Su family. Would you like to go out and meet them?"
Upon hearing Jixiang's words, Lou Wangyue immediately put down what she was doing, stood up abruptly, and looked at Jixiang excitedly, saying:
"Who is it? From the second branch of the Su family? Is it Banxia? Has Banxia forgiven me?"
Seeing her young master's impatient look, Jixiang couldn't help but chuckle.
"Young master, please don't be anxious. It's not Miss Banxia who's here, but her sister, Miss Apple. I don't know what brings her here, but I think she might be here to discuss your relationship with Miss Banxia. Perhaps she wants to act as a peacemaker. Why don't you go out and take a look?"
