Chapter 476: She Deserved It

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Noble Consort Ling was not surprised and walked straight to the front desk. “Storeowner, is there yarn like this?”

She knitted a scarf and a hat for Bai Wutong along the way and made several sets of clothes for the child. She was just short of completing another small hat.

Her gentle and moving voice finally pulled the storeowner back to his senses. He hurriedly said, “Yes, yes. It’s winter now, and wool is very popular.” With that, he turned around and went to get the yarn from the drawers.

The moment the storeowner handed over the yarn, a haughty female voice sounded. “I want this yarn!”

The storeowner suddenly turned around. The person who spoke was actually the mayor’s wife, Wen Caixiu.

He hurriedly smiled and said, “Madam Wen, there’s a lot of yarn here. You probably won’t be able to finish using it.”

Wen Caixiu glared at him. “How do you know I can’t finish using it? I want it all!”

Wen Caixiu was a fat woman with acne and pockmarks on her face.

Before the marriage law was implemented, she had suffered all kinds of grievances. Whenever she saw a woman who was more beautiful than her, she felt unhappy.

After the marriage law was implemented, if Jiang Shiqing wanted to divorce her, he had to hand over half of his assets. If she fought for her son’s custody, she could even take him away. If Jiang Shiqing dared to cause trouble, his hard-earned official position would naturally be affected.

Jiang Shiqing cowered. Not only did he often go to her room, but he also asked his concubine to apologize to her and serve her like a maidservant.

With the rise of Wen Caixiu’s status, coupled with the fact that Jiang Shiqing had become an official and come to Changqing Town, everyone here had to give her face. Wen Caixiu suddenly became full of herself.

A peerless beauty like Noble Consort Ling was not only beautiful, but also had a unique charm and gentleness that was even more attractive. The moment she entered the shop, the inferiority complex in Cai Wenxiu erupted like a volcano.

Noble Consort Ling was the bright moon in the sky, and she was the mud on the ground that had been stepped on.

Seeing that the storeowner was even more respectful to Noble Consort Ling than to her, her inferiority complex instantly turned into jealousy. For no reason, she wanted to provoke Noble Consort Ling.

Gou Houxing said angrily, “Everything is on a first come, first served basis. Why are you so unreasonable?”

Wen Caixiu sneered. “I am using my money to buy the storeowner’s things, and the storeowner also sold them to me first. How am I unreasonable? If you have the ability, let the storeowner sell them to you first. If not, shut up!”

Gou Houxing reached for his waist. Noble Consort Ling thought that he was about to draw his sword, so she hurriedly said, “Forget it.” Then she looked at the storeowner. “Is there any better yarn?”

When she was buying yarn in Syria, there were many types of quality yarn for her to choose from.

The storeowner quickly said, “There’s another type. It’s in the attic.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Caixiu tried to make things difficult again. “I want those yarn too!”

The storeowner said softly, “Madam Wen, those yarn have 60 rolls. You won’t be able to finish them.”

When Noble Consort Ling asked if there were any other fabrics, the storeowner could have said that there were none. However, he was also a discerning person. Noble Consort Ling was so good-looking and had a servant by her side. There seemed to be cavalry waiting outside. Her status was definitely not inferior to Madam Wen, or far higher than her.

60 rolls were indeed a lot. If she bought them, she could just return them later. Wen Caixiu said loudly, “You’re so long-winded. What can’t I afford?”

Gou Houxing flew into a rage. “You’re going too far!”

Gou Houxing had broken through a mountain of corpses and a sea of flames. When he was angry, it was like the terrifying Hades suddenly losing his temper.

Wen Caixiu sensed danger and subconsciously took a step back. Thinking that she was the dignified Mayor’s wife, she shouted stubbornly, “How am I bullying you when 1 was just buying things?” Her gaze landed on Noble Consort Ling’s snow-like hands and she deliberately said, “1 think the thing you weaved looks good. How much is it? I’ll buy it too.”

It was a small hat that Noble Consort Ling had painstakingly made for his little nephew.

Gou Houxing was completely furious. In a flash, he kicked Wen Caixiu over.

Wen Caixiu leaned against the wall like an overturned tortoise. The storeowner and Wen Caixiu’s maidservants were petrified by this scene.

Although Noble Consort Ling wanted to avoid trouble, it did not mean that she was still a weak sheep that could be bullied.

After Gou Houxing was done kicking, she calmly looked up. “Storeowner, can you let me take a look at the yarn in the attic?”

Before the storeowner could react, Wen Caixiu held her stomach and got up in pain. She shouted ferociously, “How dare you hit me?! I’ll get someone to arrest you and lock you up for the rest of your life!”

Before she could finish her sentence, the cavalry outside the door rushed in and pressed the head of Wen Caixiu to the ground.

The maidservant screamed and covered her mouth in fear.

The storeowner met Gou Houxing’s murderous gaze and was so frightened that his legs trembled.

Noble Consort Ling’s expression was still calm as she emphasized, “Storeowner, can 1 see the wool?”

The storeowner looked up in a daze. Only then did he feel that every move that the gentle Noble Consort Ling made had the aura of a superior.

He woke up with a start and nodded. “Right away, right away!”

After a while, the storeowner went to the attic to personally carry an entire roll of yarn down.

This was a product that had just arrived. The quality and color were good.

Noble Consort Ling chose the yarn and got into the carriage. Only then did Gou Houxing order someone to let go of Wen Caixiu.

After they left for a while, only then did the maidservant dare to help Wen Caixiu up. “Madam, Madam, please wake up. Don’t scare me!”

Wen Caixiu woke up slowly. Her neck and stomach hurt as if they were on fire. She slapped the maidservant. “Useless trash! Where are they?”

The maidservant held her red cheek and said softly in fear, “They’re heading towards Carefree City.”

Wen Caixiu forced herself to stand up. “Where’s my husband? Where is my husband?”

The maidservant said, “Today is the day Master returns to Carefree City to report on official matters.”

Wen Caixiu had a dark expression. “Perfect! Get someone to prepare a carriage for me now. 1 want that vixen to know that even with a huge backer, there’s a price to pay for hitting someone under the rule of the wise and mighty Great Empress!”

The maidservant obediently did as she was told, but the storeowner shook his head to himself. She clearly deserved it.

Noble Consort Ling was about to reach Carefree City. Bai Wutong had yet to complete her confinement period when Chu Tianbao brought Stinky and led Xiaobai’s entire family outside Carefree City to welcome her.

In order to welcome Noble Consort Ling, Stinky even plucked Sheng Huaixuan’s precious orchids.

He sat on Chu Tianbao’s shoulder, holding the orchid with a big red bow in his chubby hand as he looked eagerly at the winding road in the distance.

Suddenly, a small black dot appeared on the road. He shouted in surprise, “Father, Grandmother is here! She’s here!”

Chu Tianbao smiled. “Yes, Grandmother is here.”

Chu Tianbao was the empress’ husband and the Great Empress had even given birth to a pair of children for him. Chu Tianbao’s appearance outside the city gate naturally attracted many people’s attention and they secretly watched him.

Among them was Jiang Shiqing, who had just finished his official duties and was preparing to return to Changqing Town..
