The wicked mother-in-law doesn't try to whitewash herself; she only abuses her awful children.

Chapter 840: Can Gu Jingzhe fail the Spring Examination?

"Clap clap clap."

Gu Honglian and Tong Pandi attacked Fan Tong from both sides without any hesitation.

"Shopkeeper Tong, these are buns for you."

Tong Huaqiong walked out of Taohua Dessert and met Aunt Xu. After finishing work, Aunt Xu specially handed the buns she had reserved for Tong Huaqiong to her.

"Is your grandson okay?" Tong Huaqiong asked.

Upon learning that Mrs. Xu's grandson had caught a cold, He Chao got some medicine for Mrs. Xu and sent it over.

Grandma Xu smiled and said, "Thank you, Shopkeeper Tong, for your concern. I'm fine now. Shopkeeper Tong, I came to thank you for letting me set up a stall in front of your shop and for giving me some bun filling recipes. That's how I can make a living."

When Tong Huaqiong first came to Shengjing, Xu Po was a mobile vendor.

Her buns are clean.

More importantly, she is clean and tidy, and always has a smile on her face when facing customers, without any sadness of a widow.

Once, Xu Po was blackmailed by ruffians and met Tong Huaqiong.

Perhaps as a fellow widow, Tong Huaqiong felt pity for Xu Po. She helped Xu Po deal with the ruffians and let Xu Po set up a stall next to Taohua Desserts.

Finally, Mrs. Xu had a fixed stall and didn't have to be driven away.

Tong Huaqiong ate Xu Po's buns. They were clean, but mediocre. Tong Huaqiong gave Xu Po a few bun recipes, and sure enough, her business started booming.

Tong Huaqiong’s thoughts were very simple. It was impossible for her to do all the business in the world.

It is not easy for women in this era to go out of the house to do business, so she is willing to give away the recipes she doesn't need to others to earn a living.

"That's because you can make delicious buns." Tong Huaqiong said, "You gave yourself the opportunity to make a living."

Grandma Xu said, "Shopkeeper Tong, I will not be setting up a stall here from tomorrow."

Tong Huaqiong looked shocked.

I thought Mrs. Xu was in some trouble.

Mrs. Xu quickly explained, "I've bought a shop at the eastern end of West Street, not far from where you are. If you want some buns, send someone to let me know and I'll bring them to you."

Tong Huaqiong quickly congratulated him.

With a shop, she doesn't have to be exposed to the sun and rain. Mrs. Xu's buns have already been made, and business must be better in the shop.

Tong Huaqiong couldn't help but think that she never expected that her casual charity might create a bun queen.

In front of Tong Huaqiong, Grandma Xu did not hide anything and opened her heart to Tong Huaqiong.

"Shopkeeper Tong, I've always wanted to buy out the shop, but you know it would take me years to run my bun stall. Buying out this shop now is an incredible opportunity."

Tong Huaqiong perked up and asked, "What adventure?"

Granny Xu lowered her voice and said, "On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, when my grandson and I were seeking revenge, we came across a person lying in the snow in an alley. It was a life after all, so my grandson put his coat on the person and I left him a few steamed buns."

"Guess what? A few days ago, someone came to my house and said I had saved a man. I don't know who that man was, but his housekeeper took his coat and went to my house to identify him."

Deng Changshi did not show up, but asked the housekeeper to do so.

Grandma Xu lost her father when she was young and her son in middle age. She had a hard time raising her grandson. She never expected to have such an adventure in her old age.

When the housekeeper offered to repay the favor, Mrs. Xu did not hesitate and directly said that she wanted to buy a shop but was short of money.

She wanted the other party to help her buy a shop so that they could settle their ties.

The housekeeper thought that Mrs. Xu would not dare to make any request, but he did not expect that this country woman would be so decisive. The housekeeper was relieved. He was most afraid of people whose morals were so noble that they were as clean as a mirror and could reflect light.

We all have to have a purpose in life, even if it's just to do good things.

The housekeeper immediately rented a shop to Xu Po. Xu Po did not ask for too much, but only wanted a small shop that was big enough for her to sell buns.

Grandma Xu said, "I originally thought it would be a huge loss to take someone's shop, but then I realized that they definitely don't care about this shop, so it's not too much to exchange my life for another shop."

Tong Huaqiong said, "Good deeds will be rewarded. You saved someone's life, so asking for a shop is not unreasonable at all."

The two exchanged a few words, and then Granny Xu took her leave. Tong Huaqiong's eyes narrowed slightly.

What a coincidence, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Fan Tong was saving someone in the alley, and Xu Po was also saving someone in the alley.

Tong Huaqiong was certain that Fan Tong had falsely claimed the credit for Xu Po's work.

Now that Deng Changshi has concluded that Xu Po is his savior, it means that Deng Changshi has already investigated everything thoroughly.

Fan Tong's bad days are coming.

Tong Huaqiong walked towards Jufulai in a good mood.

Not only was she happy that Fan Tong was going to be in trouble, but more importantly, she was going to annex Dongfeng Pavilion.

On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, thieves took advantage of the situation to rob people.

He was sent to the government office the next day.

The thieves did not lie, they were indeed sent by the owner of Dongfeng Pavilion.

When you pull out a radish, you bring out the dirt. It turns out that the backer of Dongfeng Pavilion is indeed the Fifth Prince.

Dongfeng Pavilion has been secretly providing funds for the Fifth Prince's rebellion.

So Dongfeng Pavilion was wiped out.

If Tong Huaqiong did not take the opportunity to acquire the company at this time, it would be inconsistent with her business temperament.

Soon the Dongfeng Pavilion changed hands, and there was no other department store in Shengjing that could compete with Jufulai.

I happily came to East Street and saw a group of people gathered in front of me to watch the excitement. I heard heart-wrenching shouts from the circle, and the shouts sounded very familiar.

There are melons to eat.

Tong Huaqiong stopped the carriage to watch the fun.

Through the crowd, Tong Huaqiong saw two women slapping a man desperately.

The more I look at it, the more familiar it seems. Aren’t the two people who slapped people Tong Pandi and Gu Honglian?

interesting.

Tong Huaqiong guessed that Fan Tong was dancing in front of the two of them out of shame, which angered them and made them take action.

Gu Honglian and Tong Pandi were tired from fighting and stopped. Fan Tong in the crowd had been beaten into a pig's head.

"You hit me, do you know who my backer is?"

Fan Tong was beaten so hard that he felt dizzy. He wanted to fight back but he was too skinny to fight back.

You have to know that Gu Honglian and Tong Pandi are women who can tame a 200-pound sow in the pigpen.

Fan Tong was surrounded by people and felt so ashamed that he wanted to run away into a hole. Then he looked at his Jie Yuhua, who was eating melon with her hands behind her back, with no expression on her face.

In a fit of rage, Fan Tong threatened.

He has already entered the Deng Mansion, and it is only a matter of time before he can get close to Prince Ning. There is no need for him to hide the fact that he has a backer.

"I don't care who your backer is. I'll beat you if I want to." Gu Honglian said.

Fan Tong gritted his teeth and said sternly, "My backers can make Gu Jingzhe fail the Spring Examination."

The reason they are so unscrupulous now is that they think he has no backing and Gu Jingzhe is about to shine in the Spring Examination.

Then he would ruin Gu Jingzhe's spring examination.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around burst into laughter.

"Are you crazy?" someone in the crowd shouted.

Everyone was talking about Fan Tong's nonsense after being beaten. The Spring Examination was the most important examination in the whole dynasty. It was an examination to select talents for the empire. Who would dare to tamper with the Spring Examination?

Even the emperor did not dare to tamper with the Spring Examination and risk being scolded by students and historians all over the world.
