Chapter 337 You dare to curse the Marquis Mansion!
Dong family.
When Jiang Suining and Qin arrived, the atmosphere in the Dong family was solemn.
Dong Kaijian has been busy selling Heyunlou these days. When he learned that the wine recipe had spread, he immediately thought of Zheng Yaner.
But the latter denied it. Dong Kaijian was furious and interrogated the maid beside Zheng Yan'er. The maid was frightened and told everything decisively.
Zheng Yan'er knew that she could no longer hide it, so she admitted everything. What she said was that the secret recipe had already been leaked, so what difference would it make if a few more people knew about it.
Dong Kaijian was very angry, but what worried him even more was that this would bring revenge from Jiang Suining and the Jiang family.
When the two were quarreling fiercely, they heard a servant report that Jiang Suining and Madam Qin from the Changning Marquis's Mansion had arrived.
Dong Kaijian's face turned pale, "Yan'er, you really are in trouble again!"
When Zheng Yan'er heard that Qin had also come, she subconsciously touched her face.
But soon, the desire to see Jiang Suining make a fool of himself overwhelmed everything, and he immediately ordered the servant to let someone in.
Dong Kaijian understood that there was no way to escape at this point, so he reluctantly pulled Zheng Yan'er out to greet them.
"Meet Madam Qin." Dong Kaijian bowed respectfully to Madam Qin first, then nodded to Jiang Suining, "Miss Jiang."
Zheng Yan'er bore a grudge against the slap she received before and was reluctant, but due to her status, she still bowed to Qin.
"Meet Madam Qin."
"Zheng Yan'er, you are so brave. You leaked the wine recipe and it is known to the whole city." Qin was in no mood to beat around the bush. In addition, in her opinion, both Zheng Yan'er and Dong Kaijian were not worth mentioning, so she started questioning directly.
Dong Kaijian frowned.
Zheng Yan'er took a leisurely look at Jiang Suining first.
It seems that this time I have really stepped on Jiang Suining's tail, and she even asked Qin to come and support her.
Looking away, Zheng Yan'er had already prepared her words.
"Reporting to Madam, the wine recipe was indeed leaked by me accidentally, but the wine recipe originally belonged to the Dong family. Even though they sold it to Miss Jiang, they never agreed not to tell anyone else. So even if it was leaked, the Dong family should not be at fault."
"You are so shameless. Don't tell me that you don't know that there is a new wine shop in the west of the city that sells..."
"I know." Although Zheng Yan'er was answering Qin's words, her eyes were fixed on Jiang Suining. "I've seen that wine shop. The location is not good, and the orientation is not good either. It looks like the feng shui is extremely bad. It won't be open for long."
Humph, Jiang Suining wants to make money with the Dong family’s wine recipe, but I won’t let her do that.
Moreover, even if we take a step back and look at the matter, she had only leaked her own wine recipe. Even if she took the case to the government office, she would still be in the right.
Zheng Yan'er couldn't help but raise her eyes and eyebrows in pride. She wanted to look at Jiang Suining angrily, but she didn't expect that the response she got was Qin's scolding.
"How dare you curse me like that, you slut!"
Hearing this furious tone, Zheng Yan'er finally realized that something was wrong. Even though she came to support Jiang Suining, Madam Qin was so angry before Jiang Suining even opened his mouth. Wasn't it a bit too much?
However, Jiang Suining immediately answered her questions.
"Madam Dong, even though the Madam had someone beat you up before, you were disrespectful first. Even if you are angry, how can you curse the new shop of the Marquis Mansion in front of the Madam?"
Zheng Yan'er was stunned.
Dong Kaijian was also stunned.
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Zheng Yan'er. Didn't Yan'er say that the new wine shop was opened by Jiang Suining? How come it suddenly became owned by the Marquis' Mansion?
Zheng Yan'er came back to her senses stiffly, so the new wine shop didn't belong to Jiang Suining, but to this Madam Qin?
Before Zheng Yan'er could speak, Qin had completely lost her patience and spoke to the maids who followed behind her.
"Someone, arrest her for me!"
"Wait!" Zheng Yan'er screamed in fear and quickly hid behind Dong Kaijian. "Even if the shop is yours, I haven't done anything wrong. Why did you let them arrest me?"
Qin ordered her to slap herself in public and beat her like that. If she hadn't been concerned about her status as a member of the Marquis's Mansion, she would have certainly retaliated.
Now, even if the business of the Marquis' Mansion was destroyed by me, it was what I deserved. It was a tit for tat!
Qin looked at Zheng Yan'er coldly, "You deliberately leaked the wine recipe and ruined the business of my Changning Marquis Mansion. You also cursed and humiliated me just now. If I don't teach you a lesson, I'm afraid you will really think that my Changning Marquis Mansion is a soft persimmon."
"I've just said that the wine recipe belongs to the Dong family. Even if I leak it, it's none of your business. As for the curse, I, I..."
Zheng Yan'er was thinking rapidly in her mind, and she no longer had the slightest bit of pride she had just had. Instead, she was filled with nervousness and anxiety.
"Even if I said something wrong just now, I can just apologize. If you arrest me just because of this, aren't you afraid that the Changning Marquisate will be known as a bully!"
Qin sneered repeatedly.
"Bullying others by taking advantage of your power? You are good at accusing others, but..."
With a fierce look in her eyes, Qin continued.
"Even if this lady takes advantage of her power to bully others, what can you do? Your Dong family is just a new merchant who moved to the imperial city. We have no power, no influence, and no foundation. It would be easy for this lady to deal with you!"
After all, the Jiang family is an imperial merchant family. In addition, Jiang Suining has a good reputation in this imperial city and has received awards, so he had been cautious about her before and did not take any action even though he was angry.
But the Dong family is different. If they can't even teach themselves a lesson, then the Changning Marquisate should have no place to stay in this imperial city.
Seeing that Qin was unmoved, Zheng Yan'er swallowed nervously and pointed at Jiang Suining and said.
"I didn't intend to plot against the Changning Marquis' Mansion. I thought that the shop was opened by Jiang Suining, so I leaked the wine recipe. If anyone is to blame, it's Jiang Suining!"
How could she know that Jiang Suining was not making any money but was giving the wine recipe to others to make money!
If she had known that it was opened by the Changning Marquis Mansion, she would never have done this.
Qin glanced at Jiang Suining, who frowned, but did not refute and spoke directly.
"So you actually wanted to plot against me! Zheng Yan'er, I thought I had been lenient enough towards you, but I didn't expect you to be so persistent."
"Show mercy? Pah, you just want to get the wine recipe."
Zheng Yan'er stared at Jiang Suining hatefully, and then instigated Qin.
"This matter is all Jiang Suining's fault. I leaked the wine recipe because of her. If you want to investigate, you should go to Jiang Suining!"
Jiang Suining smiled in his heart.
Not to mention that his relationship with Qin has apparently eased now, even if it was before, Qin would never put the blame on him just because of Zheng Yan'er's few words.
