”What!?” ”You want to go back on your word? I have proof. I'll go report it right now and have the authorities seal your shop!”
The fat woman was about to leave when she pulled the girl's hand towards the yamen.
Su Zhi did not stop them and carefully thought over the cause and effect. She felt that there were a few suspicious points.
First, the woman claimed to be the mother of the child, but which mother ignored the child's injuries and went to find someone to argue with?
Second, the item was sold yesterday afternoon, so the girl hasn't used it since then? It wasn't until this afternoon?
Third, once things happened, this woman would not mention anything about compensation or treatment. Most of the things she would talk about were going to the government.
It seemed that he had long since decided that no matter how the matter was resolved, he would have to go to the yamen.
Thinking of this, Su Zhi could not help but be confused. She pulled Qiu Hong and whispered a few sentences to her, then let her leave. She paid the medical fees and chased after her.
”Madam, is your little girl's face going to be cured? ”I'll pay for all the medical expenses, so I can look after the child first. If I don't leave behind any scars, how am I going to get married in the future?”
The fat woman humphed angrily and did not say a word. She grabbed the girl's hand and charged forward.
”How about this, I'll be with you for as long as you can decide.”
”Pui!” Who wants your stinking money! ”
Yeah, if you don't want money and you don't want compensation, what exactly do you want?
Su Zhi narrowed her eyes and walked forward with a cold smile. ”As long as this matter does not blow up, you can state any condition.”
Only then did the woman stop her steps and stare at Su Zhi like a money grubber. After thinking for a while, she seemed to feel that it was difficult, so she could only say, ”I don't want money, and I don't want you to accompany me. I must go to the government to clear this matter up.”
”But since you've gone to the government, the yamen people can't do anything to me about this matter. Since you're still going to let me compensate you, I might as well settle the matter privately. How do you want to accompany me? Just say a few words.”
”I …” The woman whined for a long time as if she was in a difficult situation.
”You have to think carefully. I can give you the silver. I can guarantee that your child's face will be restored. I know a high-ranking official in the capital. Whatever benefits you want, I will try my best to satisfy you.”
”This …”
With such tempting conditions in front of her, the fat woman stammered and finally made up her mind. ”I don't want you to accompany me. I want you to court!”
Su Zhi smiled coldly, was it? Didn't this mean that he was sure this woman was here to cause him trouble?
But who was that person behind him? Anyang? Xiao Qian didn't even remember what happened last time, he just left and made a fool of her.
If she really did go to the yamen, the business of Flowerland would definitely be damaged. She was selling crafts, and once the goods on the third floor were sold off, the income would be reduced by half.
Su Zhi thought to herself that she definitely could not let this woman sue her at the yamen. But what else could he do to stop her? Since she was sent here to cause trouble, no matter how much she tried to coerce him, it was to no avail.
Just as they were in a dilemma, the sound of rapid hoof steps came from behind them. Someone was galloping their horse in the street, arrogant and unbridled.
”Everyone, get out of the way for this crown prince!” If you were to collide with this young master's Ferghana Horse, no one can compensate you! ”
Hearing this voice, Su Zhi's entire body couldn't help but tremble. Just as she was about to step forward, her body abruptly lightened.
Someone grabbed her waist with one hand and lifted her up into the air.
The man's teasing voice sounded again, ”Yo, I was wondering who it was. So it was my wife who was waiting for me here.”
Su Zhi was not in the mood to argue with him. She struggled to get off the horse.
”Put me down!”
”No, you stood there waiting for me.”
Lu Huan Zhi smiled shamelessly. The speed of his horse did not decrease at all.
”How shameless are you? I was just thinking about a problem!”
”Then are you thinking about me?”
Holding the reins in one hand and the woman's waist in the other, he stared at her with his bright peach blossom eyes.
Su Zhi was so angry that her heart ached. She twisted his arm and helplessly said, ”Quickly let me down. I still haven't done anything.”
