Pampered By All In Different Planes

Chapter 104: Chapter 104: After Raising a Child and Getting Rich in That Era, the Delicate Beauty Was Spoiled Rotten 24

The next day, Su Zhiruan arrived at the store to find a widow and an old crone standing at the entrance.

And skulking behind them was Su Caixia, who, unlike the two widows’ arrogance and disdain, seemed to be harboring some malicious intentions.

Su Zhiruan had studied the original plot. The widow was easily swayed by a few words from others, and the instigator or the one behind the scenes was mostly Su Caixia.

“Well, well, I didn’t think Zhao Di here had a mind for business,” the widow clapped and sneered, “If we’re talking about it, I am somewhat like your aunt. You handled this so ruthlessly, your business definitely won’t take off.”

Su Zhiruan’s expression was indifferent, and so was her tone, “Looking for trouble?”

Having experienced the previous two worlds, she found that her disposition had grown much more mature. For such vile people, who only wished others ill, there was no need for many words, let alone wasted breath. When in doubt, call the police.

“How can you speak like that?” Seeing Su Zhiruan, whom she had previously served so respectfully, suddenly rise in status made the old crone feel guilty and jealous. Her voice grew much louder, “We came to you in good faith! Who would have thought you could treat us this way? You’re utterly heartless! If I had known you would turn out to be such a shameless loser, your mother should have strangled you at birth!”

Su Caixia, hiding behind a corner, turned green. Although the old crone’s rant was directed at Su Zhiruan, recalling her own recent difficulties made her wish she could strangle Su Zhiruan herself.

If it wasn’t for Su Zhiruan! If she hadn’t stopped serving this old crone, how could the crone now be at their house, ordering them around, treating her as a slave, and even encouraging her mother to sell her off for a bridal price!

After the old crone’s lengthy tirade, Su Zhiruan still showed no reaction; she bypassed the two widows and walked straight into the store.

The old crone was so angry she wanted to smash things in the store, but Su Zhiruan, leaning on the counter with a smile, casually added, “By the way, my shop is still under renovation. If anything gets smashed, I can’t guarantee that you can afford to pay for every item.”

“You—” The old crone almost fainted in rage, but the widow and the emerging Su Caixia timely supported her.

A sinister gleam not matching her age flashed in Su Caixia’s eyes, “Mother, Grandma, I actually have an idea.”

The widow, who always had great faith in her daughter, led them to an alley by the street and began to whisper secretively.

“Mother, Grandma, we can’t directly go after Su Zhiruan; that would surely bring the police, and we might end up being locked up,” Su Caixia analyzed the situation, her eyes rolling as she lowered her voice.

“Then what shall we do!” The widow, who was always full of ideas, turned to her daughter.

Su Caixia sneered, “It’s simple. Since it’s about running a store, what’s the biggest fear? It’s reputation! The biggest concern in food business is something wrong with the ingredients. As long as we spread the word that her food is toxic, that the chicken is poisoned, then I’d like to see how she protects herself!”

Upon hearing this plan, the widow and the old crone were both shocked; they had not expected such a scheme to come from a high school girl.

The widow gritted her teeth, “Good!”

Su Zhiruan knew that these three were unlikely to give up easily, but she didn’t care. The store’s renovation was nearly complete, and Li Meihua had gone early in the morning to handle the business license, so she might not return for a while.

She cleaned the store as usual and planned to continue developing some tastier snack-like dishes.
