After driving Old Lady Wang and the rest away, Song Xiangsi's clothing shop continued to operate. She was not affected by it, but Old Lady Wang was in trouble.
Previously, when she went to find Wang Ergou, she had told him about the twenty taels of silver in betrothal gift money, and had even solemnly vowed to marry the little girl.
But now that no one had brought her back, and she had used up all of her money, and Wang Ergou and the others had been beaten up badly, these people would naturally not let her off so easily.
That night, Wang Ergou brought people to the old house in the Song Family to force old woman Wang into handing over the medical fees.
How could she possibly bring Song Xiangsi back? She scolded Song Xiangsi a thousand times in her heart, but she could only deal with it now. She begged Wang Ergou to give her another chance, she would definitely be able to get him back.
Hearing old woman Wang's words, Wang Ergou rolled his eyes and said: "Okay, we will settle this debt separately. But since this brother was injured, we should look for a doctor. Since this person was beaten up by your Song Family, you should pay for it."
When Old Lady Wang heard this, her expression changed. "I …" I don't have any money. "
"What?" The burly man behind Wang Ergou was beaten into the most miserable. He had even lost two of his front teeth, and even his words were leaking air. He looked at Old Lady Wang with a fierce expression and said, "What is the meaning of this? Just saying that he had no money was already enough? Brothers, you got beaten up for nothing! "
With that, he waved his fist, preparing to greet Old Lady Wang.
Old Lady Wang was scared half to death. She quickly retreated to the side and cried, "That's not what I meant, that's not what I meant …"
She really regretted it to death. Why did she have to provoke Wang Ergou?
Wang Ergou and his gang were used to robbing homes. They specialized in bullying people, either stealing or robbing. How could this be wrong? His money was stolen from other people's houses, and the betrothal gift was not that easy to obtain.
However, it was too late for regret. She had already spent that twenty taels of silver. If she did not bring Song Xiangsi over, Wang Ergou would definitely not forgive her.
Actually, Wang Ergou did not really want Old Lady Wang to pay him back. If it was before, he might have forced her to hand over the money from the Song Family's land.
However, after seeing Song Xiangsi today, he did not have such an idea in his heart. No matter what, he had to force old woman Wang to hand him over.
After all, not only was that girl pretty, she also had a shop. If he married her, then the shop would be his.
"If you don't want to lose money, then you can just hand over the person. Of course, if I were to marry her in the future, the shop would also be in my hands, so I'll treat it as your compensation today, understand?"
Old Lady Wang's eyes widened. First, she thought about how she had set her sights on that shop. How could she let Wang Ergou snatch it away so easily?
Ergou saw him not agreeing, and glared at him. He took out a knife from his waist and shook it in his hand. He looked at old woman Wang and sneered. "Of course, you can refuse, but …"
He sneered, and immediately used the knife to cut off a large part of the table on the side.
Old Lady Wang trembled and immediately cried even harder. This time, she didn't have any other thoughts and hurriedly agreed. "Alright, alright, alright. I'll help you bring that girl back and persuade her to give the shop to you."
Wang Ergou smiled in satisfaction and retracted his blade. "You said it yourself?"
Old Lady Wang couldn't even cry. She pursed her lips and nodded. "Don't worry. I'll definitely do it."
"Alright, I'll remember. If you don't bring the little girl back for me to get married, then I'll cut you seventeen or eighteen times with a knife and throw you into the pigsty. You know what?" Wang Ergou threatened coldly, his wretched face revealing a trace of viciousness.
Old Lady Wang was so scared that her entire body was trembling. She didn't dare to have any other thoughts. She thought that even if she had to risk her life, she would tie up Song Xiangsi and bring her back for marriage!
Thus, they decided on how they would take revenge on Song Xiangsi in the old house of the Song Family and tied her up. It was only until midnight that Wang Ergou took his men and left.
On the other side, Song Xiangsi's shop was not that peaceful either. Not long after Old Lady Wang and the rest left, a group of soldiers suddenly came and rushed into the shop.
Song Xiangsi did not understand and hurried over to ask, "Sir, what do you mean by that? "My shop is open well, why did you seal it for me?"
The leader of the officials was not the Sixth Master that Song Xiangsi was familiar with. The couple had new faces and their clothes were also different. They were like soldiers from the city, so they were very rude towards Song Xiangsi.
"Someone reported that you had opened a black shop to swindle people and went to the Prefect's place. We were only following orders. If you want to know why, then go to the Prefect's city and ask him."
After saying that, the officer waved his hand and left with the group.
Song Xiangsi was still a little dazed. He did not understand who he had offended to actually cause trouble for the Prefect!
Lian'er and A-Jiao were also anxious. They couldn't hold back their tears as they looked at the note pasted on the door. "Boss, what should we do?" "He's doing fine, why did he get banned just like that?"
Although she was also worried in her heart, she was relatively calm. After thinking for a moment, she walked forward and patted Song Xiangsi on the back, comforting her in a soft voice, "Girl, don't be anxious. Think carefully about how you've offended someone recently and know what's going on. Only then will we be able to cure the problem."
Song Xiangsi's mind drifted as she nodded blankly. She thought about everything that had happened recently.
His enemies were few in number. He was sure that Old Lady Wang and her entourage would not know the Prefect. Liu Niang was probably the only one who could talk to the Prefect and hate her to the bone.
Song Xiangsi clenched her fists and comforted Lian'er and A-Jiao. She let them take Zhou Xiufang back to the house while she rushed to the Green Chrysanthemum Workshop to tell the news to Wen Niang.
When Wen Niang heard this, she felt it was within her expectations. After all, she had battled with Liu Niang for so many years, so she knew a lot about her background.
She was not surprised that Liu Niang was able to catch up with the Prefect.
