After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 344 The Jam Incident (1)

However, the jam looked very thin and pale. Su Xiaoxiao brought the jar to her nose and smelled it; something was clearly wrong.

This jam has a pungent smell that is completely at odds with the fresh aroma of jam.

How long have you had this jam?

"I just bought it a few days ago. My husband and I bought it so that we could make orange juice for our child."

The burly man said, sounding very aggrieved.

“Our child is only four years old, and has been vomiting and having diarrhea ever since he drank this jam.”

"I only bought it a few days ago, and in this weather, it won't spoil even if I leave it indoors or outdoors."

Now, Su Xiaoxiao always includes an instruction sheet with her jam, outlining how to store it: keep it away from light and high temperatures, and of course, don't freeze it. If it freezes into ice crystals, it will affect the taste.

Of course, there is a shelf life listed on it. Since no preservatives are added to the jam, its shelf life is naturally relatively short.

So I was also worried that it would be bad if people got sick from eating it.

“My child is still vomiting and has diarrhea, and can’t eat. He hasn’t gotten better for several days, and it’s all because of your jam.”

The burly man was quite certain that he was determined to persist.

Qian Musheng glanced at Su Xiaoxiao and said, "Bring out a bottle of other jam and compare it with his!"

Tang Xiaoman took out an unopened jar of jam from the goods she had brought.

By this time, a large crowd had gathered around, and everyone was rushing to buy jam.

If this matter isn't clarified, it will not only damage our reputation but also ruin our brand.

Once the new jam was opened, it was shown to the burly man, and after comparing them, he realized that the two jams looked and smelled completely different.

Su Xiaoxiao offered him a bite of the new jam, but he shook his head and said, "Our jam doesn't taste like this!"

In order to find out the truth, Su Xiaoxiao pinched off a tiny bit of the jam that their family had brought and tasted it on her tongue.

Qian Musheng initially forbade her to do so, but Su Xiaoxiao still insisted on trying it, in order to find out the truth.

She tasted something wrong with the jam; it had an indescribable bitterness, very similar to the smell she had encountered before.

Su Xiaoxiao thought of the fake jam she had encountered before. That jam had a burnt taste and was black. This one was obviously made by adding some unknown liquid to the jam, a mixed product.

She whispered to Qian Musheng, "This is fake jam again."

Qian Musheng frowned: "What bad luck, I've run into counterfeit goods again! But this bottle..."

Qian Musheng pointed to the porcelain vase they had encountered, which turned out to be produced entirely by Su Xiaoxiao's family workshop. Why was that?

Su Xiaoxiao was momentarily confused. Seeing the burly man persisting, she asked, "How long have you had this jam? Is it still within its shelf life? Show me the paper that came with the porcelain jar."

The burly man was dumbfounded. "What paper? I didn't see it? Do they even give out paper with this jam?"

Actually, that piece of paper was just a jam instruction manual that was included with the product, which is why jam production is slowly becoming more standardized now.

"It seems we don't have any paper to deliver?"

The burly man replied, looking quite aggrieved. "Did you buy the jam here?"

Su Xiaoxiao continued to press for answers.

"Yes!"

This time, the burly man did not hesitate.

However, after carefully examining the burly man, the owner of Sun's shop said, "I don't think I've seen you before. It seems like this is your first time visiting our shop today."

"That's what the owner of Sun's shop asked," the onlookers said. However, some of the onlookers seemed unimpressed, accusing the owner of Sun's shop of being cunning.

"Boss Sun seems a bit slippery! Do you watch the shop here every day? So many people come here, how do you know this person hasn't been here before?"

This makes things quite difficult, especially since, overall, Su Xiaoxiao and her friends are at a disadvantage in this matter.

Su Xiaoxiao pulled Mr. Sun back, telling him not to say anything more, otherwise it would be terrible if he angered the customers.

The current situation is that they are more inclined to believe the burly man who came to cause trouble. After all, these onlookers and the burly man are on the same side; they are all consumers.

The burly man quickly replied, "I didn't come to buy it, but my wife did."

Su Xiaoxiao was about to say, "Then call your wife over too, and ask her about the situation properly." But that would take up a lot of time. Would the other onlookers have time to wait here for your answer? That was a problem.

Sweat beaded on Su Xiaoxiao's face; perhaps even God was on her side.

Suddenly, the curtain of Sun's Grocery Store was lifted, and two more people entered: a woman carrying a little boy.

The little boy's face was pale, and he looked sick, which was very distressing.

As soon as the two men entered, the burly man immediately shouted at the woman, "Wife, come here! Let them see if our son has become like this because he drank their jam!"

The woman approached, carrying the boy in her arms, but Su Xiaoxiao noticed a hint of panic in her eyes.

She must be hiding something.

"Hello, your husband said you bought this Rose Brand jam at Sun's Grocery Store, but can you produce the paper that came with the jam? It has the production date and storage instructions on it, do you remember it?"

The woman was in a very difficult position when asked this question.

She kept shaking her head, trying to pull her husband back.

"Sigh, forget it, let's hurry home?"

At that moment, the little boy in her arms suddenly started vomiting again, which terrified everyone present.

Everyone rushed over, chattering, "Let's take this child to the doctor right away! We can talk about the jam later!"

That's true; you have to prioritize things. But this burly man was very stubborn. As soon as he saw his son vomit again, he immediately wanted to go and find Sun Ji and Su Xiaoxiao to settle the score. In his panic, he smashed five or six bottles of the new batch of jam that Su Xiaoxiao had just delivered onto the ground. The jam bottles were made of porcelain, so they naturally shattered when they fell to the ground.

This was a complete waste of five or six bottles of jam, and Su Xiaoxiao felt very distressed.

When the burly man approached, Qian Musheng quickly shielded Su Xiaoxiao behind him, fearing she might be in danger.

But just as the burly man was about to continue smashing, his wife suddenly screamed in a tearful voice, silencing everyone present.
