The Little Landlord of Transmigration

After Xu Lingyuan arrived at the fourth uncle's house, he was not in a hurry to discuss solutions to the problem with them, but first talked to them about his doubts.

"Fourth Uncle, who do you think will spread this rumor?" Xu Lingyuan was not in a hurry, and after comforting them a few words, he began to ask.

"This...wouldn't it be great if we knew? What are you still in a hurry for? Send him to the yamen directly, and everything will be clear." Hearing him ask this, the fourth uncle was at a loss for a while, and then started to talk again. I got anxious.

"Don't you think that the rumor-monger knows the situation in the backyard and the process of making preserved fruit?" Seeing his bewildered look, Xu Lingyuan continued.

"How is this possible? How could we let strangers enter this kind of place? Your fourth aunt and I made the preserved fruits together. How could you go out and talk nonsense?" Fourth uncle seemed even more puzzled.

"Uncle, aunt, I dare to swear, I never told anyone." Han Sheng on the side also promised.Since the fourth uncle and his wife liked this hardworking and capable girl very much and treated her as a family, they did not hide this kind of thing from her.

"You child, why would we suspect you? It's not good for you now." The fourth aunt comforted her, and then seemed to think of something, and said to them with a little hesitation: "Listen to what Ling Yuan said. , I remembered something, and I don’t know if it’s related or not.”

"Oh, it's time like this. If you have anything to say, just say it." The fourth uncle saw that she was looking at him hesitantly, as if he was hindering him, and it was difficult to speak, so he was a little anxious. Fire said.

It's just that he is not to blame for being anxious, because this rumor not only fails to sell the very best-selling candied fruit, but also affects other businesses in the store. It is really heartwarming to see such an innocent injustice.

"When you were buying goods outside, sister-in-law and the others came a few times, and they stopped after Ling Yuan made things clear." The fourth aunt thought about it carefully, and then said slowly.

"What? Did you take them to the back?" After hearing what she said, the fourth uncle frowned and asked.

"I don't have that kind of carelessness." The fourth aunt glared at him, and said a little angrily, and then after letting out a sigh of relief, she continued: "You know them too, how can they be the ones who don't worry, they insist Go and see, I can still turn against them."

"You mean..." Hearing this, Fourth Uncle also came to his senses, but he was obviously very resistant to this possibility.

"They just looked around and asked some relevant questions, but I didn't tell them in detail. Now that I think about it, it's indeed a bit suspicious." The fourth aunt said, her face became a little dignified.

"If it's true... but what good will it do them?" Fourth Uncle said with some grief and confusion.

"Hmph, don't blame me for talking too much. Which one of them is good at seeing others? At the beginning, the little sister turned against us, and finally bit us back. If it was said that they were not in trouble, I would not believe it." The fourth aunt listened After hearing his words, the grievances he had endured for so many years seemed to erupt all of a sudden, and it was hard to say it outrageously.

"Oh, it's all in the past, and you still talk about what they do, isn't it just an embarrassment for yourself." The fourth uncle said with some reason.

"We don't care about that, but it's easy to think about, but is this adding trouble? This is obviously going to cut off our life, even an irrelevant stranger, he can't have such vicious thoughts." The fourth aunt said with a sneer.

"Isn't this just a guess, you know it must be them." The fourth uncle was obviously also very angry, but after repeatedly clenched his fists, he still said in disbelief, but his tone was obviously much weaker.

"Fourth Uncle, we don't want to think that way either, but judging from the description in the rumor, if the person who spread the rumor really never went in, how could he be so accurate? Or did someone else go in?" Xu Lingyuan didn't want to watch them argue any longer, so he spoke.

"As the saying goes: 'You must not have the intention to harm others, but you must have the intention to guard against others.' I remember that day after they were rejected, they still said something to wait and see when they left." The fourth uncle and fourth aunt were speechless for a while , Han Sheng thought for a while and said.

"Well, now, even if they really did it, what can we do? Not to mention that there is no evidence, even if the evidence is solid, can we really sue the Yamen?" The fourth uncle sighed and said with some pain explain.

"Then let's forget about it?" The fourth aunt looked at the fourth uncle rather complaining, seeing his dejected look, it seemed that he had suffered some serious blow, and in the end, he could only feel aggrieved and unwilling Say something.

"No matter who they are, if they dare to do it, they will have to bear the consequences. If they let it go, there is no guarantee that it will not happen again in the future, or even worse. Although we don't have definite evidence, we can't catch them, but it's okay to scare them." Xu Lingyuan spoke out his plan.

"According to what you want, how do you do it?" After hearing this, the fourth uncle asked curiously.

"Let's not talk about this first. Let's talk about how to solve this matter now?" Xu Lingyuan suddenly changed the subject.

"Your fourth uncle should have told you, right? Some people don't believe our words at all. We must disclose the production method. We can't think of a good way. We only think that if we can prove our innocence, we will earn less in the future. It's worth it. It's just that you told us this method, and we still need to hear your opinion on what to do." Seeing that the fourth uncle couldn't turn the corner for a while, the fourth aunt explained to him.

"It's not impossible to make the method public, but have you thought about it, Fourth Aunt? What if someone really uses rotten fruits to make preserved fruits and then blames us?" Xu Lingyuan thought for a while, and then asked.

"It's still your thoughtfulness. Just tell us what to do. We will listen to you." The fourth aunt was stopped by the question for a while, and then she relaxed her heart and said to him.

"What I said may not be right." Seeing that she believed in him so much, Xu Lingyuan said with a smile.

"Although you are young, you are more knowledgeable than us. You can talk about it first. The big deal is that we will add up the total. It's just that you have been in a mess these two days, and your mind is almost in a mess." It was hard to calm down. The fourth uncle who came said.

"Then let me talk about it first." Xu Lingyuan responded, then silently sorted out his thoughts, and said slowly: "Since they want to see the method, then we will give them the method, not only to them, Choose a time and show them the whole process. It is best to make a good fruit and a broken fruit for them to compare. But when they are watching, they have to choose a few highly respected fruits. Representative, it’s better to give us an explanation, we can’t just forget about it like this.”

"This makes sense, and it's not difficult. I'll discuss it with someone." The fourth uncle nodded and said after listening.

"It's just that after this spread, I'm afraid the business will not be so easy in the future." The fourth aunt said with some worry.

"That's not necessarily true. Through this demonstration, we can not only dispel the rumors, but also let more people know about us, and take advantage of the trend to start our brand, because not every home can do it well because it needs to go to the oven. .As for the possibility of other merchants appearing, there is no other way.” Xu Lingyuan said disapprovingly.

"That's true, as long as we do well, we still have an advantage." Fourth Aunt nodded in agreement.

"Not only that, but we can also try some more fruits, such as bringing in some fruits from other places. There are more varieties, which will naturally attract people more. And we can also try to cooperate with some shops, such as embellishing some pastries on the pastry. Preserved fruit, isn't it good for both parties to benefit from each other?" Xu Lingyuan continued.

"Isn't that the reason! Originally we were worried about you, but with this kind of thinking, we will definitely not be able to starve you in the future." After the fourth uncle heard what he said, his depressed look disappeared instantly, and he hung up again. With that simple and honest smile on his face, he said quite heartily.

"Hmph, is it possible that we can still count on us? I almost even went in with myself." The fourth aunt's mood improved a lot, and she deliberately said to the fourth uncle with a straight face.

The problem was finally solved, Fourth Uncle didn't pay much attention to her words, just smiled embarrassingly.

"Master Xu, haven't you said how to deal with those who spread rumors and cause trouble?" Han Sheng said suddenly, and the atmosphere that had just become active fell silent again.It's just that fourth uncle didn't say anything more at this moment.

"Well, I have to ask the county magistrate to help me." Xu Lingyuan said directly.

"What help do you want? If you really need it, your father can go to the yamen and talk about it." Fourth Uncle said with some embarrassment.

"For a rumor, we have to disclose the method of making it. There is no guarantee that no one will come to trouble us in the future. If we can get him to come forward, while proving our innocence, we will declare that there will be such malicious rumors in the future. We must pursue accountability according to the law and punish them severely, which should also serve as a warning and a deterrent.” He paused here, and then went on to say: “As for the rumor-mongers this time, we have no basis to arrest them. , but you can use the mouth of the county magistrate to say that after some investigation, someone has already confessed the culprit, and clearly stated that this person has witnessed the production process of candied fruit, and the people in the yamen have already started to ask you for investigation. , and then it depends on whether some people have a guilty conscience."

"This method is good. The so-called 'people don't fight with officials' will definitely scare them, and it doesn't require us to come forward. It can't be better!" After listening, Han Sheng took the lead in expressing his approval.

"It's just that the county magistrate can agree?" Fourth uncle and fourth aunt did not object, but said with some concern.

"It's his duty to maintain the people's living conditions and the business's happy business. It's not an embarrassment for him. I'll ask the people from the Zhao family to see if they can help." Xu Lingyuan didn't very worried.

"If there are people from the Zhao family to help, it shouldn't be a problem. I will also discuss it with your father. He is also very concerned about this matter." The fourth uncle relaxed, "Don't worry about the future. It's up to us to handle it all, and we are already very sorry for letting you, a junior, worry so much."

Thinking that he was still a child after all, it didn't make much sense to participate or not, and since the fourth uncle agreed, he would naturally try his best to do it, so Xu Lingyuan agreed.After visiting Zhao's house in the afternoon, he insisted on asking fourth uncle to send him back again.As for the Xu family, he is not in the mood to deal with it now, so let's wait.
