Chapter 110 Dealing with Trouble
After Butler Ren left, Si Heng couldn't find an excuse to stay any longer after drinking the tea that Xun Dong had brought back.
I have to say goodbye to Qin Ruo.
Before leaving, he told Qin Ruo that Zhang's gang had been dealt with.
He will not appear in Taihe County in the future. As for how to deal with it, Si Heng did not tell Qin Ruo in detail.
In his words, he always deserves it.
This surprised Qin Ruo a little. This morning, she, Qingsheng and Hu Zi had discussed going to the restaurant together tomorrow.
Her purpose was to lure out Manager Zhang's gang and then deal with them all at once.
But now Si Heng told her that the person had been dealt with, as if the other party had predicted the future.
This is better. Since Si Heng has taken action, I don’t have to worry about it anymore.
After all, he also has a share in this restaurant.
"Mr. Si, this is thoughtful. It saves me a lot of trouble. Thank you." Qin Ruo's tone was unusually calm, without any sarcasm towards him.
"As I should, I also have a share in the restaurant. It's just a piece of cake to deal with a few scoundrels. Miss Qin, you don't have to be polite." Si Heng waved his hand indifferently.
In fact, if he had a tail, it would have been up in the air long ago.
In the past, Si Heng would not even look at people like Zhang the Master.
It was Manager Zhang's bad luck that he had to meet Si Heng.
After returning from Changhe Village that day, Si Heng reached a new cooperation with Qin Ruo, so he naturally became concerned about matters related to the restaurant.
After learning about the actions of Manager Zhang and his gang, what can we do?
The other party actually wants to target Qin Ruo. What's the difference between that and attacking himself?
He asked Cang Jiu to collect some information about Zhang Zhang, and even dug out the past of his ancestors for eighteen generations.
Who can stand up to investigation these days? Not to mention someone like Zhang Zhang who gets carried away with pride after gaining a little power.
In Taihe County alone, he was punished for bullying ordinary people, snatching children, and causing deaths.
As for the other accomplices, they are just a mob and cannot cause any trouble.
The young master of the Xie family saw injustice and took personal action, which also confused County Magistrate Jiang.
He couldn't understand why the young man who lived in Xie Mansion, who was usually elusive, would do such good deeds.
But since there were both witnesses and evidence, County Magistrate Jiang took it very seriously, and Zhang's gang was easily dealt with.
After coming out from Qin Ruo, Si Heng finally felt refreshed.
Just now, Qin Ruo told him that a new batch of medicinal materials would arrive tomorrow and asked him to find someone to take over.
In the past, Si Heng had handed over most of these business matters to Xue Jingdian.
Xue Jing is also in charge of the daily sale of medicinal materials at Xinglintang.
When he heard Qin Ruo ask him to arrange someone to hand over the goods tomorrow, he suddenly didn't want Xue Jing to come and talk alone.
So he said that he happened to be free tomorrow and would take people there in person.
Qin Ruo naturally had no objection, it didn't matter who treated her the same.
After a few cups of tea and conversation, Qin Ruo had some understanding of Si Heng's other information besides his specific background.
Si Heng currently runs several businesses, and the sale of medicinal materials is just one of them.
The jewelry shops, silver shops, restaurants and teahouses throughout the Great Sheng Dynasty are the main businesses.
Qin Ruo suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the other party could easily transfer manpower.
Compared with Si Heng's industries, the little money he earned now was totally insufficient.
Of course, Qin Ruo would not rush to please Si Heng just for this reason.
She was used to fighting for the wealth and power she wanted. It was not impossible for her to do so.
Qin Ruo saw Si Heng off and returned to her own yard to rest.
When she woke up, it was already evening.
Yi Qiu heard the noise in the room and walked in through the curtain. She bowed to Qin Ruo and prepared to go forward to help Qin Ruo up.
"Master, you are awake. You can have dinner now."
Originally, this task should have been done by Xundong, but Xundong happened to arrange Banxia and Chuntao to do other things, so he left her to look after Qin Ruo.
"No need, I can do it myself." Qin Ruo didn't think much and avoided Yi Qiu's outstretched hands.
Qin Ruo was really not used to having maids helping her with things like dressing and bathing.
"I know I was wrong, please forgive me, Master."
Yi Qiu knelt on the ground and admitted his mistake immediately as if by reflex.
She felt very uneasy, thinking that she had done something wrong and made her master angry.
Before she came to the Xie Mansion, she also served the mistress of another wealthy family.
Not to mention the many rules that wealthy families have, it is common to be beaten and scolded if you don't obey the rules.
Later, because the master of that family was attracted by her beauty and wanted to force her to be his concubine, the mistress of the house found an excuse, beat her up and sold her away.
After traveling to Taihe County, he met Nanny Zhang, who bought him and brought him to the Xie Mansion, where he lived a stable life.
"What's wrong with you? I'm just not used to being served so closely. I don't have so many rules here. You have to get used to my lifestyle in the future."
Qin Ruo was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and picked up Yi Qiu.
Yi Qiu felt relieved after hearing that, but there was still a hint of nervousness in her eyes, for fear that Qin Ruo would think she was useless.
Qin Ruo got out of bed, sat in front of the dressing table, and waved her to come forward and comb her hair.
"Just keep it simple, no need to make it complicated."
Yi Qiu responded respectfully, stepped forward and skillfully combed a simple hairstyle for Qin Ruo. It must be said that Yi Qiu's skills were really good.
"Very good. I'll leave the task of combing my hair to you from now on." Qin Ruo nodded, acknowledging Yi Qiu's craftsmanship.
Since coming here, Qin Ruo usually uses a hairpin to half-up her hair.
The reason is simple, she just can't handle the complicated things by herself.
"Yes, master." Yi Qiu's tone of response was tinged with joy.
When Qin Ruo finished washing up and arrived at the dining hall, Xun Dong, Ban Xia, Chun Tao and others had just brought the dishes to the table. When they saw Qin Ruo, they all came forward and greeted her.
"There are only a few of us in the room. We don't have to follow those rules all the time." Qin Ruo raised her hand and asked them to stand up.
Xun Dong was originally thinking about serving food to Qin Ruo and Qin Tiao Tiao, but Qin Ruo called him away and told them to eat by themselves.
Although they had only been together for half a day, Xun Dong, as the most stable of the maids, had already figured out a little about Qin Ruo's temperament.
The master is a man of his word. If he doesn't allow them to serve him, they just need to be obedient.
Xundong bowed and left the dining hall with Yiqiu and others.
Qin Ruo never thought of asking the maids to sit down and eat together.
Some rules should be followed.
Even if we really force them to eat together, I'm afraid they won't be able to eat comfortably.
Slogans like equality for all have no practical meaning here.
In this feudal era, people are really divided into different classes. The truth is so cruel.
She is not bold enough to subvert this era.
