Wanjin Lady

Chapter 173 Becoming a Dog
Wen Wan glanced around and saw that many people came to pay their respects today, including members of the Wen family, wealthy families in Ping County, winery workers, and neighbors, who had filled the entire yard.

The young lady's voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear clearly.

"My father was seriously ill earlier, and Shi Jinquan took advantage of my father's confusion and stole my father's seal and our family's land deeds. Without my father's signature or seal, Xinlong Bank lent Shi Jinquan one thousand taels without authorization."

The young lady looked down at the sparse hair on Shopkeeper Ding's head and sneered.

"I remember...Xinlong Money House has a rule that the maximum loan amount cannot exceed 500 taels. Manager Ding and my father have no personal relationship, but he was willing to increase the loan amount without my father's signature or knowledge, playing into the trap and helping Shi Jinquan borrow money and run away."

Shopkeeper Ding's face turned pale.

"Shi Jinquan ran away, leaving behind a mess. My Wen family is broke, but we have never owed anyone a debt."

"Even if the Xinlong Bank used dirty tricks to cheat and deceive me into paying you back the one thousand taels, I, Wen Wan, have already paid it back today!"

"More than a month ago, before the agreed repayment date, Manager Ding's nephew brought a dozen or so burly men to my house and started smashing things up. They even gave my old servant a heart attack, and he nearly died!"

Mother Chen cooperated by covering her chest with a painful expression.

Hongmei was a little anxious.

No way. No wonder Chen Ma is so favored, it’s because of her good acting skills!

She has to practice too!

"They say it was my nephew who did it, but who doesn't know that it was you, Shopkeeper Ding, who ordered it?"

Shopkeeper Ding opened his mouth to argue, but couldn't find a chance to interrupt.

"And today..." The young lady's pair of dark eyes looked over, and Shopkeeper Ding felt his shoulders sink. "You brought people to make a scene at my husband's funeral hall, disturbing his peace, and forcing me—"

"You do all sorts of dirty things, and you still want to earn a reputation as a 'good person'?!"

Shopkeeper Ding felt cold sweat on his back, thinking that he had acted rashly today!

——Clang.

There was a loud noise.

Everyone was so frightened that their hearts trembled and they all looked over!

Wen Wan reached out and knocked over the savings box in Hongmei's hand. The silver ingots that she had just collected fell to the ground with a clang, and the silver bills flew all over the sky, finally landing lightly on the bluestone slab.

Shopkeeper Ding looked down and only saw the red silk shoe uppers folded in the lower half of the woman's dress.

The woman's cold voice came from above my head.

"I declare that from now on, Xinlong Bank is dishonest and untrustworthy! My Wen Family Winery will never cooperate with them! Everyone, please open your eyes and look at the situation of my Wen family today. Think carefully before spending money in the future!"

it is good!
At this moment, everyone in the Wen family cheered secretly!

Relieve your anger!
Liu Yiyi immediately spat, "Take the money and get out of the Wen family's gate! My Wen family doesn't welcome people from Xinlong Bank!"

Shopkeeper Ding's face paled, and he pursed his lower lip. He knew it was pointless to be submissive at this point, so he revealed his true intentions and threatened, "As the saying goes, leave some room for error so we can meet again in the future. Are you so sure, Shopkeeper Wen, that you won't need my Xinlong Bank in the future?"

"It's right to leave a way out for others." The young lady curled her lips, "But are you, Ding Yuanshan, a human being?"

Everyone was shocked, and then thought to themselves: This young master of the Wen family... has such a greedy mouth!

A girl...acts so viciously!

When Wen Yue saw the person standing on the stone steps, she was filled with fear. Fortunately... fortunately, she did not agree to marry the second brother. Wen Wan looked weak and fragile, but she was so difficult to get along with.

Even Wen Yue's daughter-in-law, Li, thought so. If Wen Wan entered her house, she didn't know what would happen to her if she were to be wasted by Wen Wan!
Zhu Wang's inner thoughts: Just look at it! I'm not the only one who thinks this girl is vicious!

Shopkeeper Ding was so angry that his face turned blue. He naturally refused to condescend to bend down and pick up the money on the ground. However, the clerk beside him had a keen eye and quickly picked up the silver ingots and banknotes on the ground. He pulled Ding Yuanshan and said, "Shopkeeper, let's go."

Ding Yuanshan snorted coldly, waved his hand and left, leaving behind a harsh remark: "You'd better remember what you said today!"

The Wen family’s bustle came to an end with the departure of Xinlong Money House.

Tomorrow is the day of the funeral procession for the Wen family's son-in-law, and only close relatives and friends will be left to help. Zhu Wang, who considers himself both a close relative and a friend, made an appointment with Wen Weiming to come and help the next day before leaving. As he was leaving the Wen family, Zhu Wang's wife finally tore off her kind facade and grabbed him so hard that he cried out and almost walked in an "S" shape.

Madam Zhu Wang's voice was sinister. "You were so generous just now, giving away all the family's wealth! You old thing, who was the one who was jumping up and down in the house earlier, calling that girl from the Wen family vicious? Now you're clinging to her like a dog. Tell me, are you attracted to that widow?"

"Oh, you shameless old bastard! How old is Wen Wan? How old am I? At my age, I'm almost her father! Hey! That's not the point... The point is, am I fucking crazy enough to fall for that Yasha?"

Mrs. Zhu Wang was puzzled: "Then you..."

Listening to the tone of her man, it was clear that... there was resentment mixed with grievance, fear mixed with grievance, and flattery mixed with fear.

Zhu Wang's voice trembled, "Yuan Jing knows, right?"

Mrs. Zhu Wang nodded.

How could he not know? The Pig Spirit had been hanging out with Yuan Liulang for a while, acting like they were good brothers.

"He's dead!"

Mrs. Zhu Wang was speechless, what nonsense!
"Zhang Jiping knows, right?"

The master chef of Wen Family Winery!

Madam Zhu Wang hesitated. "They said he was accused of arson and had his hand chopped off by Wen Wan? I'm afraid he's in jail now, right?"

Oh, this is such a big deal! A while ago, the story of Zhang Jiping spread from the streets to the back of the alley. This workshop master burned his former employer. Such a sensational and exciting incident made several generations of the Zhang family too embarrassed to enter the city.

But as the rumors went on, they changed.

Some say two fingers were cut off.

Some say a hand was chopped off.

Some say severe torture was used!

Because of this incident, many people said privately that even though the young master of the Wen family is a woman, she is more vicious than men!

"Really?" Zhu Wang's face was filled with fear. He recalled the fear of being dominated by Wen Wan during the trip to Bingzhou, and also remembered the night when the firelight illuminated Zhang Jiping's face. "That damn girl was very vicious. She dragged me to the winery and made me watch as they caught that old turtle, Zhang Jiping, in the jar."

"Let me tell you, as soon as Zhang Jiping entered the winery, that yaksha showed up with a dozen burly men. He didn't even blink when he chopped off two of Zhang Jiping's fingers. Zhang Jiping's blood... spurted onto my face. I... I was so scared that I nearly peed my pants!"

Mrs. Zhu Wang was horrified when she heard this. "This widow... is so vicious. Even Zhang Jiping has worked for the winery for more than ten years..."

Zhu Wang disagreed. "He's planning to burn down the distillery. There are more than a dozen employees working there. If it really burns down, that would mean more than a dozen lives lost!"

"But...but...it didn't catch fire after all, right?"

"Wait until it starts burning and it'll be over!" Zhu Wang didn't argue with his wife. "Just tell me... is it true that those who cross that Yaksha never have a good ending?"

Mrs. Zhu Wang was speechless when asked.

"That Yaksha is incredibly evil! I previously teamed up with Yuan Liulang to deal with the Wen family, and she definitely kept a note of me in her notebook. Now that her husband is dead, she doesn't have time to deal with me, but once she has time to deal with me, Old Zhu, won't I be the next Yuan Liulang?"

Thinking of Yuan Liulang's end, Mrs. Zhu Wang's face showed fear. She immediately put aside her previous doubts and united with her man.

You have to save your life!

Madam Zhu Wang looked embarrassed. "Then... let's come to help the Wen family with the funeral tomorrow. As the saying goes, don't hit someone who smiles. That widow can't be so cruel--"

Zhu Wang shook his head, realizing that his name had been crossed out of Wen Wan's notebook. He also felt that his decision to take out the 110 taels of silver was a wise one. "Right. If we help her family more, and make her owe us a favor, then my life will be saved!"

In short, a truth.

That means not only will Old Zhu go to lick the Wen family alone, but he will also have to bring his wife along to lick them.

It's to save your life, it's not shameful.
