The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 509 Jin Family Affairs

After the court was dismissed, the crowd that had come to watch the fun dispersed, enjoying the conversation.

Soon, the news that the county government had handled such a case spread, and it became a hot topic.

If it were an ordinary case, it wouldn't have been exaggerated to this extent, but the plaintiff and the defendant in this case were both famous figures in Luoshui City.

Not to mention Miss Pomegranate, in Luoshui City, even three-year-old children know her name, and there are almost countless people who have not tasted food from the Li family workshop.

The newly built Salesian Church and the Elderly Home in the west of the city, in a short period of time, provided a place for the beggars and homeless vagrants on the street to go, and even the widowed and lonely elderly people to live in...

They didn’t know the defendant, but the Young Master Jin mentioned by the defendant was a figure known to everyone in Luoshui City!

The little girl kept saying that she was Young Master Jin's woman, and the gossipers were like detectives with eagle eyes and golden pupils who could solve cases like a god. They kept talking one after another, and someone even revealed that Young Master Jin had bought a house in Gouweiba Hutong, Baita Lane a few months ago, and that a little girl and Young Master Jin were seen often hanging out there!

Also, there is a straw weaving shop on Shanshui Street, and that girl and Mr. Jin are often there.

Someone asked about the girl's appearance. Hey, it was a pair. Someone said, isn't this the defendant in court today?

So that's how it is, he really is Mr. Jin's "person"!

Young Master Jin's men went to steal Miss Pomegranate's secret recipe. Could it be that Young Master Jin ordered them to do so?
There are many people who are jealous of the money made by Miss Pomegranate. For example, Boss Hu, whose property was confiscated, imitated Miss Pomegranate to sell fructose and meat. He didn't have the secret recipe, so I heard that he hired a group of people to figure it out on their own. They only figured out 70% to 80% of the recipe. The taste is not as good as Li Ji's, but it is sold cheaper and has really snatched a lot of business from her.

But Boss Hu was jealous of this and that, so he set fire to Xinglongzhai and was arrested as a result, with a miserable ending.

So, the Jin Family Embroidery Shop is also jealous of Miss Pomegranate's business?
His family makes clothes, so how could Miss Pomegranate be a hindrance to him?

Oh, by the way, Miss Pomegranate also runs a clothing business. I heard that the woolen clothes are very light and warm to wear, and they sell very well in the north!

However, aren't those sold by the Liu family? Miss Pomegranate is just a supplier. As for the Jin family, they don't pick on the Liu family, but pick on Miss Pomegranate. They are bullying the weak and afraid of the strong!
These words soon reached the Jin family.

"Where is that evil creature?" Old Mrs. Jin knocked the ground heavily with the cane in her hand.

Mrs. Jin lowered her head and dared not speak.

Bai glanced outside the hall.

The housekeeper standing at the door came in, sweat on his forehead and said, "Young Master...Young Master...stayed in Yihong Tower yesterday and hasn't come back yet."

"What a wicked creature!" Old Lady Jin was so angry that she couldn't take it anymore. "Take someone with you and bring him back to me right away!"

"Yes." The housekeeper quickly retreated and arranged for everyone to go to Yihong Tower.

Half an hour later, Mr. Jin, half drunk and half awake, with a red face, was carried back. "Grandma, what do you want to talk to me about? I have an appointment to listen to music this afternoon!"

Old Lady Jin was furious when she saw him dressed in tatters but smiling cheerfully. "What a devil! What a devil!"

What sin did the Jin family commit to deserve such a disaster?

He couldn't help but glare at his daughter-in-law. If she hadn't been spoiled since she was a child, she wouldn't be like this today!

Mrs. Jin shrank her neck and dared not look up. She felt wronged. She had sacrificed half her life to give birth to such a precious baby. He was her only child. Wasn’t it natural for her to spoil him a little?

"Let me ask you, did you instruct the girl named Xiu Miao to steal the secret recipe of the Li family?"

The good grandson bought a house outside and brought up a good girl there. Old Mrs. Jin knew about it. Her grandson had never had a child, and she was hoping to have one. The concubines she had taken in before didn't work, so maybe this beautiful girl outside could get pregnant?

As for whether she was a good girl, she had inquired about it. Even if she was a country girl, it would be a great honor to bring her in as a concubine with some money. However, her grandson had been acting more and more unruly recently, so she let him stay outside for the time being. It would not be so easy to bring her in, so she had to put pressure on him.

But unexpectedly, this girl actually dared to steal the Li family's secret recipe and was caught red-handed.

If this was really ordered by my grandson...

Old Madam Jin's breathing became heavier. Although she was not afraid of the pomegranate from the Li family, the Liu family behind her was someone they dared not offend. Even her son-in-law, who worked in the government office, had to lower his head when he saw Mr. Liu. After all, the Liu family was the richest family in Bingzhou. They could crush the Jin family's business with just a pinch. What's more, there was the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion behind them. That was an existence that the Jin family would not dare to approach even if they accumulated wealth for several more generations.

"What do you mean by stealing the secret recipe of the Li family?" Young Master Jin's eyes were misty for a moment, but when he mentioned Xiu Miao, he raised his chin and glanced at Bai Shi beside him, then looked at Old Lady Jin and smiled, "Grandma, your grandson was just about to tell you that I want to bring Xiu Miao in as my concubine."

Seeing her grandson's expression, Mrs. Jin was sure that the secret recipe theft had nothing to do with her grandson, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. But when she heard that her grandson wanted to take Xiu Miao in as a concubine, she frowned, "No! Xiu Miao has bad behavior, you should break up with her immediately and stop associating with her!"

How can Xiu Miao be a good girl who can do such a thing as stealing other people's things? How can such a person be brought into the Jin family?

Not to mention that she had also offended the Li family.

Young Master Jin immediately refused and shouted, "That won't do. I'll tell you, Xiu Miao is pregnant with my child. You'll be able to have a great-grandson soon!"

"What?" Old Mrs. Jin was shocked.

Even Mrs. Jin, who had been keeping her head down, couldn't help but raise her head with a gleam in her eyes.

"It's true, Xiu Miao is already two months pregnant!" Young Master Jin nodded, but gave Bai a smug smile. She was like an old hen that didn't lay eggs. She couldn't give birth herself, and she didn't let others give birth. If Qiao'er hadn't said it, he wouldn't have known that Bai was so vicious!

So, he kept a trick up his sleeve. When he took a fancy to Xiu Miao, he did not rush to bring her home, but kept her outside. Otherwise, the child would not be conceived.

Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Jin couldn't contain her joy. Great, great, her grandson finally has a child!
But Zhuan immediately frowned, "You can't bring her in. She stole the Li family's secret recipe and has been sentenced to three years of hard labor by the county magistrate!"

She would never let such a person into the house.

But I can't give up my great-grandson.

When Master Jin heard this, he shouted, "What? Xiu Miao is in jail! Oh, grandma, you have to get her out quickly! She's pregnant, what kind of jail is that? How can she survive?"

Old Mrs. Jin rolled her eyes at her grandson. How could she not know?

But the county government office is not her backyard. Can she let Xiu Miao come out just like that?

Now I can only spend more money to make arrangements and see if I can use the money to pay it off. Even if I can't, I'll ask the county magistrate to show mercy and wait until Xiu Miao gives birth to the child before sending her away.

She only wanted the great-grandson of the Jin family. As for Xiu Miao, who had given birth to a child, she had no right to care.

When the child is brought back, he will be registered under Bai’s name.

Old Mrs. Jin turned around and discussed this matter with her grandson's daughter-in-law. Her son-in-law and grandson were not suitable for the job, so what made her most relieved was that she had hired this good grandson's daughter-in-law.

Bai listened to Mrs. Jin's plan, looked at her husband who was still staring at her warily, afraid that he would do something bad, and curled the corner of her mouth.

"We still don't know if Xiu Miao is pregnant with Jin's child. Grandma, there's no need for you to offend Miss Pomegranate because of her."

Old Mrs. Jin frowned, "Did Pingying hear something?"

She also came to her senses and realized that she really had to be more cautious with this child conceived outside.
