Chapter 72
"Is it Mrs. Xiao?"

Someone interrupted her speech for no reason, the lady's eyes were displeased, she turned her head to see the speaker, her eyebrows furrowed even better, and she said with an unkind expression, "Yes, what's the problem?"

"Just now I heard from my wife that the clothes I made were made in other places. Can Mrs. Xiao explain what's going on?"

"Explain? Are you joking?" Mrs. Xiao sneered, and when she saw Mrs. Li wearing plain clothes despite her good looks, she immediately disdained her, "Mrs. Ben is here to give you a chance. If you don’t get angry, close the shop and leave, otherwise, when the Xiao family makes a move, don’t blame my Xiao family for bullying!”

"Bullying? I think this is really suitable to describe your Xiao family!"

Mrs. Cao, who walked over at some time, stood beside Mrs. Li calmly. If Mrs. Li is a person who seems to be easily bullied, then Mrs. Cao's appearance is like those who have experienced countless things in the deep palace compound. Doo's senior nanny.

Even Mrs. Xiao was taken aback when she saw Mrs. Cao appearing suddenly, she unconsciously compared her with her confidant nanny, and felt that the woman in front of her seemed to be more special, so she restrained her smile immediately, and looked at her with sharp eyes. She, "Who are you?"

"Mrs. Xiao came to other people's shops with such great fanfare to act wildly, and she didn't even investigate my identity?" Cao couldn't help but sneered, "It seems that the rich and powerful people are still a head above us, and they can already be so defiant. I'm bullying people in broad daylight, I would like to ask Mr. Li, could it be that this Teng County is already under the Xiao family's world, allowing such rascals to run rampant everywhere!"

"What did you say!" It was the first time someone described her as a rascal, Madam Xiao became angry instantly, and the ladies next to her subconsciously took a step back, knowing the consequences of this Madam Xiao's anger, they couldn't help feeling a little scared .

If it wasn't for their master's friendship with Xiao's family and his bowing down, why would they bother to talk to her bitterly.

Mrs. Cao, however, was fearless, and just gave her a sideways glance, "Mrs. Xiao kept saying that our Tang family's clothing store imitated your clothes from Nishangge, so where is the evidence?"

"Evidence? What my wife saw with her own eyes is not evidence, but you are so rude to me, you really don't take our Xiao family seriously!" Speaking of the Xiao family, Mrs. Xiao was obviously full of air, If he was still intimidated by Cao Shi at first, he would have no fear.

Mrs. Cao didn't think much of it, she didn't have the slightest fear on her face, and instead said provocatively, "So, according to this, Mrs. Xiao is talking about everything?"

"Could it be that Madam's words are not clear enough? These clothes are the new clothes that I will launch in Nishang Pavilion, but they were sold by your shop first. Isn't this evidence enough?"

"Madam, is this a joke? Just based on your words, you framed us as imitating the clothes of your Nishang Pavilion. So, can we also say that your Nishang Pavilion is trying to imitate the clothes of our Tang family clothing store?" Cao Said sarcastically with bad words.

"Presumptuous! You..."

"Who is presumptuous?" Before Mrs. Xiao could finish speaking, Cao interrupted coldly, "Since Mrs. Xiao has no evidence, then we have evidence. According to what Madam said, if these clothes were actually made by Nishangge first, then Xiao Can your lady tell me when it was made?"

"When, of course...it was ten days ago!"

"Ten days ago? That's strange... Although the clothes in our shop were only sold today, they were made a month ago. Our neighbors near the Tang family can testify to this, but it was a few days ago , our eldest lady went out wearing the same clothes, but was snatched away by someone who claimed to be the Xiao family, could it be that the Nishang Pavilion was made after our eldest lady's clothes?"

Aunt Cao said with doubts on purpose, but the truth of the matter was revealed beyond words. Before their Nishang Pavilion made this dress, their Tang family had already put it on, and the Xiao family even snatched the clothes once. , if the Xiao family really knows how to do it, why are they still grabbing other people's clothes?Don't you want to learn how to do it when you see other people's clothes are good?

Mrs. Xiao was also taken aback by these words, and the onlookers were also talking about it, and hearing Mrs. Xiao's ears made her blush even more.

That's right, she was indeed the one who snatched the clothes last time, but after the clothes were taken away, she was worried that her daughter would get sick if she wore them too dirty, so she borrowed flowers and presented Buddhas to the young master of the Xiao family, saying that she came up with the design herself and thought it was very good He made the same in Nishang Pavilion so that her daughter could wear new and same clothes.

Mrs. Xiao was never worried that there would be shops selling these clothes. Who knew that when she was walking on the street today, she suddenly saw a woman wearing a dress that looked like an enlarged version of that dress. She immediately stepped forward and asked curiously. He had business dealings with the Xiao family and knew Mrs. Xiao. He immediately reported the address of the Tang family's tailor shop when he heard her ask.

When Mrs. Xiao heard that she had opened a little bit, the first thing she thought was that she should not be allowed to continue to drive. If the young master knew that she had lied to him, the end would definitely be bad, so she went to the shop in a huff, and then With what just happened.

Mrs. Xiao didn't know what to say now, maybe she didn't expect that this woman was not afraid of her, and she also told the truth outright, so she didn't know how to speak at the moment, but her face was angry, and finally she turned her eyes, looking at the woman who had just been with her. How many people did she talk to.

"You just bought the clothes here?"

Seeing their eyes suddenly looking towards me, the ladies just now felt bad, "Yes... yes!"

"Return, this dress is for sale in our Nishang Pavilion, and if you want to buy it, you have to go to Nishang Pavilion, this fake place, you dare to buy it!" Mrs. Xiao said in a commanding tone.

"This..." It is obvious that a smart person can tell who this counterfeit is. He thought that Mrs. Xiao would back down on her own after everyone said so much. Who knows what she meant, it seems that she still wants to sell others as usual Clothes, the expression is not happy at the moment.

"Why? You don't want to? Don't forget how much our Xiao's mansion has given you. Offending the Xiao's family for a humble shop, you should be able to settle the debt, right?"

Everyone understood that this was an obvious coercion with threats.

Mrs. Cao also seemed to be irritated by Mrs. Xiao. She was not afraid of the Xiao family, so when she saw that she was still defiantly forcing customers to return the goods in her shop, she frowned, and said loudly to Lan'er, "Lan'er Son, go to the government office and ask a few arresters to come over quickly, and say that there are scoundrels threatening customers in our shop during the day and night, and they even used the name of the Xiao family, see if they want to bring someone over to arrest him!"

Mrs. Xiao's eyes widened instantly when she heard this, as if she hadn't expected Mrs. Cao to do this at all. She stared at Lan'er who was about to leave, and threatened, "Are you blind? My lady is originally a woman from the Xiao family. , do you still need to pretend? Don’t think that I will be afraid if you find a policeman. If there is no Xiao family in this Teng County, Mr. Li may not be able to stay. I want to see if Mr. Li wants to arrest me or move you!"

Mrs. Xiao held her head full of golden hairpins extremely high, and spoke arrogantly.

"That's not necessarily the case. If Mrs. Xiao knew that the counterfeit you mentioned is now worn on Mr. Li's son, I don't know if you would say that. Then Mr. Li lives in the county government. He put it on before, how could Lord Li not see it?"

"Besides, there are so many people here, Madam is so confident, would an incorruptible adult harm innocent people for the sake of a black sheep? I believe Xiao's mansion would not do this either, right? Doing business is not as long as you have money. Could it be that Madam is so in Xiao's mansion?" It's been a long time, haven't you learned anything?"

After Mrs. Cao finished speaking, the discussion in the shop became louder, as if to echo her words, she cast a sarcastic look at Mrs. Xiao.

The needle-like light made Mrs. Xiao a little uneasy. She came here alone today, and she didn't have any servants. If something happened, there was no one to help, so she hesitated immediately, especially when she looked at the side and wanted to report at any time. Lan'er, the official, lost the last trace of hesitation, snorted coldly, turned around and left.

After Mrs. Xiao left, there was a climax of discussion in the shop. It was nothing more than being happy that Mrs. Xiao was angry and leaving, and then admiring Cao's courage. In Teng County, who dared to disrespect this woman so much, I'm afraid. Cao is No.1.

Those wives also looked at Mrs. Cao very gratefully. If she hadn't spoken, I'm afraid they would have been in a dilemma just now, so after thanking them, they left one by one, thinking that they should go back to the house and tell their master what happened today. No matter whether Mrs. Xiao will retaliate or not, she must prepare in advance.

Everyone else in the shop advised Mrs. Cao one by one to be careful of Mrs. Xiao's revenge. Mrs. Cao understood what they meant, thanked them all and replied that they would be prepared.

As for Mrs. Li, she didn't come back to her senses until Mrs. Xiao left. She was frightened after the conversation between Mrs. Cao and Mrs. Xiao, because she had never seen such an arrogant person. He was so courageous that he walked up to Mrs. Cao as if he didn't react until the person left, saying that he was useless.

Mrs. Cao only told her not to think too much, and comforted her a few more words, and then asked Xiaolan to go back to Tang's house first, and asked Dr. Wang to get some medicine to wipe her face.

After Xiaolan left, Mrs. Cao saw that the shop was not busy, so she left Mrs. Li to take care of it, and she planned to go to Qiguofang to have a look.

The business of Qiguofang is also very good in the past few days when the new year is approaching, because Tang Zhi announced in advance that the Tang family's "holiday notice" will not open until the third day of the new year, so in order to stock up, all big households have I bought a lot of fruits and vegetables in advance for stock.

Apparently, a big family doesn’t understand why there is such a thing as a holiday. Like other shops, they may be closed for one day except on the New Year’s Day, and then resume the next day. However, the whole country seems to have no regulations on holidays, so Tang Zhi’s decision Many people are puzzled.

And Tang Zhi was also very surprised after hearing everyone's comments. She originally wanted to give everyone a vacation of more than ten days, but it was reduced because Cao reminded her that there had never been such a regulation in her country. Four days, she still felt a little short, thinking that she would make up for everyone when she was not busy in the future.

As for the servants of the Tang family, when they heard the news of the holiday, they were surprised and then happy. They were very grateful to Tang Zhi. They never thought that they would have a time when they had sold their bodies. After all, they all knew about Qiguofang. As for the business, I know how much business will be lost if the business is closed for four days, but I didn't expect that the lady didn't care about these things, and everyone was even more moved.

Tang Zhi thought that it was impossible for the Laifu Inn to suspend the supply of vegetables because the Tang family was on holiday, so she mentioned that the person who lived on the mountain recommended one person to work overtime, because it was during the holiday, so the wages would be doubled accordingly.

It's just that Tang Zhi's proposal was opposed by everyone as soon as Cao's conveyed it. They were already satisfied with the holiday. The representatives all refused and said they would take the initiative to deliver the goods.

After Tang Zhi heard about this, she was more than happy except for the accident. To be honest, what she needs is not only a servant, but also a servant who can take the Tang family as the main body and is willing to protect the Tang family. If there is such a person , she didn't mind paying the corresponding price, so Tang Zhi took some silver from the space that day, bought some money bags one by one, filled them with the same silver -- ten taels, and handed them over to Mrs. To everyone in the Tang family.
