Chapter 145 - 145 Beat Up the Scumbag (2)
145 Beat Up the Scumbag (2)
Su Ergou’s rhetorical words were like a resounding slap to Prefecture Lord Li’s face!
Prefecture Lord Li’s face flushed red!
However, what was even more humiliating was that Young Master Li actually started arguing with Su Ergou.
“Nonsense! I didn’t ask anyone to tie you up! You climbed onto my bed yourself! I asked someone to tie that kid up! Look at yourself! Why would I like you!”
!!
Prefecture Lord Li was so angry that his heart was twitching.
Everyone could not bear to watch. It was fine if he wanted to mess around, but why was he so stupid?
Couldn’t he just deny it? Although everyone knew his inclinations, they could pretend to be blind! They could go against their conscience and say that they didn’t believe the siblings’ words!
To think he shot himself in the foot!
Su Ergou said fiercely, “You said I climbed onto the bed on my own. How can I tie myself up?”
The few Li family servants with swollen faces wished they could lower their heads into their pants.
This was a huge farce.
They had kidnapped the wrong person.
“My Lord!”
A young official in his late twenties walked over. He cupped his hands and bowed to Prefecture Lord Li. “Leave these two troublemakers to me! Young Master Li is injured. It’s better to get a doctor to treat him in time to prevent him from falling ill.”
Prefecture Lord Li’s resentful gaze swept across the siblings before he left with his injured son.
Second Madam sneered and looked at Third Madam, who didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. “Third Sister-in-law, you should have listened to me earlier. Wouldn’t it be fine if we didn’t use these two chefs? Now that Young Master Li is injured in our family, I wonder if he will implicate us and bear a grudge!”
First Madam shouted, “You should stop talking too!”
Second Mistress shut her mouth.
Eldest Master did not say anything but his words were written all over his face.
First Madam said to Su Xiaoxiao, “The Wang Family is small and can’t accommodate the two of you. Our Wang Family can’t afford such a capable chef.”
With that, she left with First Master.
The joys and sorrows between people were not interlinked. Not everyone could empathize with others.
Third Madam had invited them here to make her proud. Now that they had embarrassed her, Third Madam was no longer willing to pay attention to them.
“I’m done with the snacks,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
“You still want snack money!” Third Madam’s expression changed instantly. “You caused such a big commotion and damaged a room full of things. I still have to ask you to compensate me!”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “We didn’t break everything.”
Third Madam was speechless.

When they came out of the Wang family, the young official was also there.
He was the grandson of Old Madam Qi. His name was Qi Ming. Two years ago, he made it to the top two in the academic rankings. He did not enter the Imperial Academy and was sent to Qingzhou to be the official secretary of the prefecture.
He said, “You should leave the prefecture capital as soon as possible. The Prefecture Lord only has one legitimate son. If you hurt him, it’s best not to fall into the Prefecture Lord’s hands again.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Aren’t you going to arrest us?”
Qi Ming smiled helplessly. “If I capture you, my grandmother won’t be able to eat your snacks later. She’ll blame me. I’ll tell the Prefectural Lord that you’re not from the prefectural city and have already been captured and brought back to the county office, which will watch you strictly and make you suffer in prison.”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him deeply, “Lord Qi, you are a good official.”
Qi Ming’s eyes flickered.
Su Xiaoxiao and the others got into the carriage.
“Miss Su!” Qi Ming suddenly spoke.
Su Xiaoxiao turned around and looked at him in confusion.
Qi Ming smiled gently. “Manager Sun has told me everything that happened just now. You didn’t do anything wrong.”
… .
Su Xiaoxiao got into the carriage and looked at Manager Sun, who had a bitter expression on his face. She straightened her fat waist and said, “See! Lord Qi said I did nothing wrong!”
Manager Sun sighed.
What kind of fearless boss did he have?
“Manager Sun, where is the prefectural academy?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
“At Long Stream Street,” Manager Sun replied.
“Is it far?”
“It’s not too far away. Why are you asking about this?”
Su Xiaoxiao took a weed off Su Ergou’s head. “Business ended early. I’m going to visit a friend.”
“It’s Young Master Shen, right?” Manager Sun had seen Shen Chuan visit her stall more than once.
Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “It’s him. You know him too?”
Manager Sun smiled: “I can’t say I know him. He used to be a regular customer of Jin Ji. He once came to me and asked me to sell the snacks to their academy, but I didn’t agree. At that time, I looked down on the small business of the academy. Now I don’t regret it. Otherwise, Jin Ji would have reaped benefits.”
Su Xiaoxiao said confidently, “Jin Ji is not cheap. I can snatch the business even if you do it.”
Manager Sun replied, “Although this is the truth, can’t you be more humble?”
About fifteen minutes later, the carriage stopped at the entrance of the prefecture academy.
...
“Wow, the prefectural academy is so impressive!” Su Ergou said in a daze.
Shopkeeper Sun explained: “Of course it is impressive.”
Su Xiaoxiao did not wait long before Shen Chuan came out with a fan.
“Shen Chuan.”
Su Xiaoxiao walked over with her chubby hands behind her back.
Shen Chuan turned around and said in surprise, “Miss Su?”
Su Xiaoxiao came in front of him and looked at the students behind him. “I saw them walking in groups of twos and threes. Why are you alone?”
Shen Chuan opened his fan. “I like to be alone! By the way, why are you in the prefecture capital? Are you here alone?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Ergou, Manager Sun, and a shop assistant called Xiaowu went to buy things.”
“Is that Manager Sun from Jin Ji?” Shen Chuan asked.
“It’s him.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded, “He’s my manager now.”
...
Shen Chuan said in a daze, “Uh… It seems that a lot has happened while I was away from town… By the way, why did you come to the prefecture capital?”
Su Xiaoxiao said casually, “I’m here to do some business.”
Shen Chuan was amused. “Not bad, your business has even reached the prefectural city!”
