The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 580
Chapter 580: 580 The thing that others can’t do 2
Su Qingyue’s mouth twitched, and she glanced at Jin Xun’s sincere expression. She dared to bet her head that this bastard was pretending to know that she had returned 5000 taels and regretted her decision to death, deliberately annoying her, “I’m not familiar with you, and whether I love money or not, Boss Jin doesn’t need to know.”
“We can’t be that unfamiliar, can we?” Jin Xun didn’t mind her cold attitude, “I heard that you made 300 taels from Rich Source Tavern. Boss Su has really made a fortune.”
Yes, she had lost 5000 taels, made 300 taels, and had a few osmanthus cakes’ worth of 80 taels to fill the gap in her teeth. Thinking about how much money she had lost, she felt cold in her heart, “Can we not talk about money?”
“Then can we talk about how you made the 300 taels?” Jin Xun pondered for a moment, “Manager Duan of Rich Source Tavern is a stingy man. He wouldn’t have paid so much for your recipe.”
Su Qingyue would not be foolish enough to admit that she cheated Manager Duan by saying it was Jin Xun who wanted to compete, “Wasn’t your servant at the scene? Of course, it was by my eloquent tongue that I drummed up the money. Big Boss Jin, think about it, since the beginning of time and throughout history, who else has been a guest at your luxurious Jin Residence and brought out 80 taels worth of cake money? Just me, Su Qingyue, right?”
“That’s true.” Jin Xun nodded, “The cakes and tea at my Mansion have never been converted into cash and taken away by guests.”
“That proves,” she proudly puffed up her chest, “I can do things that others can’t. All right, I’ve done my greetings, Boss Jin can move aside now.”
Jin Xun’s servant Ji immediately said, “My master is too noble to make way! If anyone should move, it’s you!”
Su Qingyue laughed, “Is that so? There’s a saying that a good dog doesn’t get in the way, so anyone who gets in the way must be a dog. Boss Jin is a talented and handsome man. Should someone as handsome and high-status as Boss Jin be a dog blocking the way, or should he stand aside as a person? Boss Jin, it’s up to you whether you want to be a person or a dog.”
This time, it was Jin Xun’s turn for the corners of his mouth to twitch, “I really don’t want to make way, but after your words, I have to…” With a flick of his folding fan, he moved a few steps aside, “Who told me I have to be a human after all.”
“Yes, a smart person like Boss Jin would never choose to be a dog.” Su Qingyue smiled and walked forward.
“Su Qingyue, you…” Ji objected, but Jin Xun gave him a look.
Ji had no choice but to close his mouth.
Su Qingyue wasn’t afraid to offend Jin Xun. If worst came to worst, she simply wouldn’t sell her dried fern to Drunken Immortal Pavilion.
With her medical skills, she could not only research medicine but also make poison. If anyone angered her, even if they were a big boss, she could poison them until they’d rather be dead than alive, kneeling in front of her, begging for mercy!
Jin Xun stood in place, watching Su Qingyue lead the horses away, unable to come to his senses for a long time, “Ji, she’s right.”
“Right about what?” Ji cautiously asked, “Didn’t really become a dog just by blocking the road, did you?”
“Not that!” Jin Xun tapped Ji’s head with his folding fan, “I mean, there are indeed some things that others can’t do. She…can do them.”
Ji covered his aching head and echoed his master’s words, “That’s true. Only a woman like her could sell vegetables so well, selling the recipe so expensive twice, and even making kickbacks while buying umbrellas at roadside stalls…”
“That’s not what I meant.”
“Then what does Master mean?”
Jin Xun looked at her disappearing figure in the crowd and lowered his eyes.
Even a great beauty like her might not catch his attention.
