Salted Fish Lady Loves to Eat Melons

Chapter 157: Mrs. Jiang wanted to see her son-in-law but was forced to fight

"Everyone, please go in quickly to avoid accidental injuries." The shopkeeper is truly a skilled businessman, and he still cares about his customers at this moment.

He was very good at doing business and had no physical strength, but he still rolled up his sleeves, rubbed his hands, and approached Mrs. Fan San and her daughter step by step.

When he was at his lowest point, he was met by the boss's men, who saved his family from dire straits, so he had to act bravely.

Wen Qingwan naturally knew the shopkeeper's strength very well, so she winked at the two maids who grew up in the secret guard battalion.

Jinliu and Jinyun immediately stood in front of the shopkeeper upon receiving the order, while Jinlan and Jinque stood on both sides of Wen Qingwan, one on the left and one on the right.

When Marquis Zhenxi saw two maids, aged eighteen or nineteen, taking the lead, she wanted to stop the guards, but heard the sharp curses from her sister-in-law.

"Are they all dead? Hurry up and pull them away." The guards behind her immediately rushed forward like swarms of swarms upon receiving the order.

But they were no match for Jinliu and Jinyun and were knocked to the ground in less than a cup of tea.

Looking at the guards lying on the ground groaning in pain, Mrs. Fan San's anger grew more and more intense.

She ordered the maid beside her in a sharp voice: "Why don't you report to the police? It's unreasonable for a store owner to stop customers from entering the store, and even beat people up. I told you to close the store soon."

Her arrogant words caused the crowd, who were already there to watch the fun, to start talking.

"People are unwilling to do business with you, which means there is something wrong with your character."

"Hey, you sealed up the Yunjin store, how come I didn't know that the yamen was opened by the Fan family?"

"Hurry up and report to the police! What's wrong with them not wanting to sell Yunjin to you?"

"Oh, we're closing the store soon, who do you think you are?"

"........."

Mrs. Fan San was pointed at by the people around her, and she was so angry that she blurted out: "Do you know who I am?"

"Who are you?" The one who was not afraid of trouble immediately echoed the question.

"I am the third wife of the Marquis of Zhenxi Mansion, and also the wife of the General of the Cavalry. How dare a small brocade shop block me from entering the store? I will teach him a lesson."

After saying that, she turned to her maid and ordered, "What are you still standing there for? Come in quickly."

"Madam, may I enter..."

"Shut up." Mrs. Fan San scolded the maid who was about to refute.

She said arrogantly to the shopkeeper: "You'd better ask me in, or I'll make you pay for it."

Just when the shopkeeper wanted to reiterate, a clear and pleasant voice sounded.

"The Fan family is really shameless. The Fourth Young Master Xiao wouldn't let you in, so why did you have the audacity to force your way in?"

Mrs. Fan San turned her head and saw a girl of about fifteen or sixteen and a woman who was not dressed luxuriously standing there.

The girl was wearing a peach pink dress and her hair was adorned with two pearl and jade hairpins.

The woman was dressed even more simply, with only a jade hairpin in her hair.

It is obvious at first glance that they are not from a wealthy family. At most, they are the wife and daughter of a minor official in the capital.

Seeing this, Mrs. Fan San immediately became arrogant and rushed over with a proud attitude.

She poked the young lady's shoulder with her finger and said, "Who are you, you ignorant girl? How dare you scold me?"

"Who do you care who I am? People from the Fan family were not allowed to enter the store, but you brought people to force your way in. Is that something a shameless person would do?
Besides, Mrs. Fan San brought a large number of people to block our way in. Can't I tell the truth?" Jiang Li asked bluntly. The onlookers immediately echoed: "That's right! Mrs. Fan San brought people to block our way into the store, which is a bit too much."

"We rarely take the time to come and see the new products in Yunjin Store. Madam Fan San can't stand in our way."

"Mrs. Fan San has bad intentions. Is she here to cause trouble on purpose?"

Mrs. Fan San was furious, a fierce look flashed in her eyes, and she stretched out her hand to grab Jiang Li's face.

Jiang Li had already sensed her malicious intentions and dodged them easily. Mrs. Fan San missed her and almost fell down.

Mrs. Fan San's eyes were so gloomy that tears seemed to drip out of them. She raised her eyes and glanced at everyone.

She found that most people were looking at her as if they were watching a show, and her sister-in-law and niece were also standing in the distance watching.

She was so angry that she went up and grabbed Mrs. Jiang's head. Mrs. Jiang came with her daughter today to meet her future son-in-law.

She wanted to be more reserved to leave a good impression on her future son-in-law, so she hesitated for a moment before being grabbed by the hair by Mrs. Fan San.

Her three sons are already married, and her youngest is also engaged. Her daughter is fifteen years old this year and will be coming of age next year, but she still hasn't found a husband. She is very anxious.

Her husband was a Censor-in-Chief, whose rank was not high and who often offended people, so she had no intention of finding a wealthy family for her daughter.

She only hoped that the man would have enough food and clothing. When she heard that her daughter liked the owner of the Yunjin store, she immediately took her daughter to see her future son-in-law.

As the wife of Lord Jiang, the Censor-in-Chief, she was certainly not someone who would let herself suffer any loss, so she hesitated for only a short while.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them were fighting fiercely, scratching each other's faces and pulling hair, with hairpins scattered all over the floor, like two street shrews.

From these looks, you can't tell at all that one is the wife of the Censor-in-Chief and the other is the wife of a general.

Madam Fan San gnashed her teeth and cursed: "Bitch, if I don't teach you a lesson today, do you think I am easy to mess with? Do you know who my husband is?"

"Teach me a lesson? Let me tell you after I beat you. I don't care who you are." Mrs. Jiang was very angry. She raised her hand and slapped Mrs. Fan San in the face.

She came to meet her son-in-law, but was forced into a fight. When she thought of the image of a shrew that she left to her future son-in-law, she wanted to tear the man in front of her to pieces.

"You are the wife of a minor official, and you dare to hit me. Aren't you afraid that your husband will be dismissed from his post?"

"I'm scared! But I never consider the consequences when doing things. I just want to make myself happy." Mrs. Jiang said she was scared, but she was very fast at hitting people.

The capital city of Shangjing is full of people from big families, and even many royal relatives.

No one dares to speak up for justice easily, because everyone is afraid of offending an important person or accidentally hitting a wall and bringing misfortune to their family.

But it’s always okay to watch the fun!

Everyone knew that the law did not hold the masses responsible, so when they saw that the two were fighting to a draw, they all started to cheer them on, not caring who won or lost.

Someone in the crowd shouted, "I think Mrs. Fan San is going to lose. Come on, Madam."

"Hey! What are you looking at? I think Madam Yushi is going to lose. Come on, Madam Fan San."

"Mrs. Fan San is really useless. She still loses even if she pulls someone's hair first."

Mrs. Fan San's maids and servants were extremely anxious because their mistress did not allow them to interfere.

"Jinliu, Jinyun, go and pull them apart. It's disgraceful to fight in front of the store door!"

Wen Qingwan stepped forward to stop the beating when she saw that Madam Fan San's face was covered with bruises after being beaten by Madam Jiang.
