However, her spies sneaked into northern Shaanxi again, only to find that Gu Huaijing and Tan Zhixu had already set up a tight defense line. Not only was their business still booming, but they also had the support and support of more people.

The secret agent hid in the dark and secretly exclaimed: "It seems that this matter is not as simple as it appears. Gu Huaijing and Tan Zhixu seem to have been prepared for it and have won the hearts of the people. If they forcefully disrupt the situation, it will be counterproductive."

He retreated quietly and decided to report to Song Ling'er truthfully what he saw with his own eyes.

That night, the moonlight was hazy, and the lights in Zhiweixuan were brightly lit.

Gu Huaijing and Tan Zhixu toasted to each other. They were well aware of the coming storm, but they believed even more in the power of justice and the cohesion of the people.

Gu Huaijing said loudly: "No matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead is, as long as we stick to our hearts and plead for the people, we will have nothing to fear."

Tan Zhixu smiled slightly, with perseverance shining in his eyes: "Yes, we are not only protecting our own business, but also protecting the peace of the people here. If Song Ling'er dares to attack, let her see what is wrong. Really impregnable."

Not far away, the spy hiding in the darkness left quietly.

After thinking about it, Song Linger came up with the most vulgar way.

She asked the people she sent to find people to make trouble in Tan Zhixu's shop.

Tan Zhixu thought about what methods Song Ling'er would use to deal with him, but after waiting for a few days and not seeing her move, Tan Zhixu slowly gave up.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the shop opened that day, a diner clutched his stomach and said he had a stomachache.

"This is a black shop. No wonder your business is so good. You put things in your food that I remember back in the day."

"Yes, yes, I see that many of the things you sell in this grocery store are things I have never seen before, and 80% of them are unclean."

Faced with the sudden change, Tan Zhixu's expression remained unchanged and he calmly ordered the clerk: "First send this guest officer to the hospital for treatment. We will cover all expenses. At the same time, please rest assured that our store has always been based on integrity and will never do anything." We will not do anything harmful to customers. We will get to the bottom of what happened today."

There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, some questioned, and some supported Zhiweixuan: "Don't talk nonsense, I often come here to eat, and I have never had any problems."

"That's right, Zhiweixuan's reputation is very good in northern Shaanxi. How can it be a black shop?"

"I think there are some people who are jealous of Zhiweixuan's good business and are deliberately looking for trouble."

Gu Huaijing stood aside calmly, his eyes as sharp as an eagle scanning the crowd for any strange movements.

He whispered to Tan Zhixu: "There must be something fishy about this matter. We must find out the truth and we cannot let the people lose trust in us."

At the same time, the secret agent hiding in the dark witnessed all this and couldn't help but admire Gu Huaijing and Tan Zhixu's calmness and wisdom in dealing with the crisis.

At the hospital, the diner who claimed to have a stomachache was diagnosed and treated by a doctor, who found that there was nothing abnormal and was just an ordinary gastrointestinal discomfort.

This news quickly spread back to Zhiweixuan, and immediately the voices supporting Zhiweixuan became louder.

The next day, Gu Huaijing and Tan Zhixu publicly promised to invite famous chefs, country squires and fair and selfless people's representatives from a hundred miles away to form a tasting group to jointly supervise the food safety of Zhiweixuan.

This move won enthusiastic response from the general public, and at the same time caught Song Ling'er who was trying to frame them by surprise.

"Hey, look at Zhiweixuan, his courage and responsibility are nothing like those ordinary businessmen like us." An old man passing by patted his thigh and praised.

"Those who caused trouble may have shot themselves in the foot this time!" The young man next to him echoed, with a look of gloating on his face.

At this moment, Song Ling'er, after learning about this series of changes, was so angry that she gritted her teeth but was helpless.

She could only sit and wait for Zhiweixuan's next move, but she didn't know that Gu Huaijing and Tan Zhixu had already laid a trap, waiting for her to fall into the trap.

The previous diners thought that the incident was over, but that night Tan Zhixu and Gu Huaijing found his home. The man felt so guilty when he saw the two of them that he did not dare to look directly at them.

It was Tan Zhi Xu Shuai who spoke first, "Don't worry, as long as you tell the truth, we won't cause trouble for you!"

Seeing that Tan Zhixu was serious about what he said, the man hesitated for a moment and said, "Seriously."

"really."

"Okay, I said."

The man told how the people from the capital bribed him.

Tan Zhixu was not in a hurry, and asked him to sign and post the money. He also asked for the banknote given by the man, with the seal of the Marquis Mansion written on it in vulgar words.

Tan Zhixu sent all the evidence back to the capital.

A few days later, the old lady received this and pointed directly at Song Ling'er, "You are confused. Tan Zhixu can still make money for our Hou family, why can't you tolerate her?"

Song Ling'er was dumbfounded when she saw these evidences and didn't speak for a long time.

"Ling'er, I have already said that the Hou Mansion belongs to you, why are you still targeting Tan Zhixu? Now is a good time to take advantage of Tan Zhixu, but you want to make trouble for her. Isn't this just making our Hou Mansion uneasy? ?"

The old lady tried to dissuade her with earnest words, but no matter what she said, Song Ling'er just couldn't turn around, and she even felt that the old lady was fooling her.

Seeing that it didn't make sense, the old lady didn't want to say anything anymore, and directly asked Aunt Huang to take Song Ling'er away.

"Mother……"

Song Ling'er wanted to say something else, but the old lady waved impatiently, and Aunt Huang quickly dragged her away.

When the two came to the courtyard, Desolate Oh said softly: "Miss, everything the old lady does is for you. How can you not understand my wife so much?"

Aunt Huang really feels sorry for the old lady.

She talked a lot with Song Ling'er, and finally made Song Ling'er understand the old lady's sincere words, "I understand, don't worry, I will not cause trouble with my mother again in the future. I will let Tan Zhixu go." She’s a horse.”

After saying this, Song Ling'er turned around and left in front of Aunt Huang Fufu.

After Song Ling'er left, Nanny Huang returned to the old lady.

"how?"

The old lady also hopes that Song Ling'er can understand her. Now that she sees Aunt Huang coming back, she is quite looking forward to it.

Aunt Huang nodded.

"Yes, madam, don't worry, I understand you."

Aunt Huang smiled, and the old lady's worries were relieved. "Ling'er can understand best. I'm really worried about what she is doing. You must know that Tan Zhixu is not a soft persimmon."

The old lady's worry was not unnecessary. Aunt Huang understood it. Now Song Ling'er also understood it. She felt much more relaxed and slept quite comfortably that night.

But Tan Zhixu, who was far away in northern Shaanxi, stayed up all night.

She knew that the old lady would not really punish Song Ling'er, but the current affairs in northern Shaanxi did not allow her to return to the capital. She could only stay here temporarily, and she had to find the man behind the merchants in northern Shaanxi.
