After being tortured to death, Hou Men’s legitimate daughter returns and goes crazy killing her

Chen's words did not reassure these shopkeepers. They had all heard about the incident on East Street. Madam did not ask for the money she had lost before, but the shopkeepers on East Street had been changed over and over again, and those who had suffered big losses, Madam It’s not like I don’t want it.

On their side, the lady only took away the account books and did not arrange for anyone to come and clean up the shop, which made them feel extremely panicked.

When they told Ms. Chen their thoughts, Ms. Chen smiled: "You people are really as timid as mice. Isn't it a good thing that you didn't close the shop?"

"What kind of good thing is this?" One of the shopkeepers wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said tremblingly: "Old lady, not closing the shop means settling accounts after the fall!"

"What about settling accounts after the fall? In your eyes, is this all? Isn't it possible that it could be something else?" Mrs. Chen said seriously.

"What else?" The shopkeepers looked at each other, not knowing what Chen was thinking.

Looking at the confused shopkeeper, Mrs. Chen frowned: "Idiot! Gu Qingyuan is just giving me a warning. You don't have to be afraid of what Gu Qingyuan will do to you. Even if the sky falls, there will still be The Duke's Mansion is holding it!"

After hearing this, the shopkeepers, although their faces were not impassive, were already muttering in their hearts.

When the shops were closed today, Pei Qingci was there. For shops on West Street that had little profit, Pei Qingci actually closed them one by one. If they wanted to make them believe that Gu Qingyuan was just a small punishment, then they still I really don’t believe it!

Just looking at Chen's look, she didn't believe what they said at all. Not only did she not believe it, Chen even wanted to send them away.

Finally, the leader of the group bowed his hands towards Chen and said: "Old Madam, in this case, we will believe you once, but if it comes to a life-and-death situation, please don't abandon us! "

Hearing this, Mrs. Chen nodded and said: "Don't worry, we are both prosperous and devastated. When the time comes, I will help you even if I risk my life."

After leaving the Duke's Mansion, the head shopkeeper said to the shopkeepers behind him: "Everyone, why don't we talk somewhere else?"

The conversation they had with Chen just now made them feel very uneasy.

They didn't believe that Chen would save them at all. Rather than risking their lives to help them, they preferred to believe that this old woman would cut ties with them immediately.

So, when the head shopkeeper said they wanted to talk elsewhere, they agreed without saying a word.

The group of people went to a private room in the restaurant. One of them bowed his hand towards the leader and said, "Shopkeeper Qian, what do you think of this matter?"

Shopkeeper Qian frowned and said sternly: "Everyone, this matter is related to my wealth and life, so I have nothing to say! I can only say that the old lady cannot be trusted."

The others nodded in agreement. They had worked with the old lady for so long, and they knew very well what kind of person the old lady was. It was simply a fantasy to expect the old lady to save them.

"Then what should we do now?" Shopkeeper Zhao frowned, his face wrinkled into a bitter melon. This was the first time in his life that he was so worried.

Shopkeeper Qian looked at the big guy and said seriously: "Everyone, if you have any ideas, just tell me."

As Shopkeeper Qian finished speaking, the surroundings fell into silence.What can they do? The other party is the Duke's wife. If she is unwilling to save them, they can't force others with a knife.

"Tsk, if you ask me, we shouldn't have listened to the old lady! We made so many false accounts to fool her. Now it's fine. The old lady has escaped unharmed and we have become the scapegoats!" Shopkeeper Wu slammed the table in anger! , his shop on West Street is considered to have relatively good profits, so their deficit there is also the most serious. At this time, he felt particularly regretful, doing the hardest and most tiring work, not to mention not earning a single banknote, but also Take the biggest blame!

Shopkeeper Qian looked at the furious Shopkeeper Zhao and said helplessly: "You don't have to be too anxious. There is no room for maneuver in this matter."

"Is there still room for maneuver?" Shopkeeper Wu said, taking a sip of tea: "You all saw it when we closed the shop today, and Xiang Guo was following behind. Do you think there is still room for maneuver in this situation? Is there any room for it?”

As Shopkeeper Wu finished speaking, silence continued to spread among them, and everyone was speechless.

Shopkeeper Qian looked at these dejected shopkeepers, who seemed to be the end of his life tomorrow, and sighed: "At the beginning, none of us thought that the old lady would lose in this game."

"Actually, we should have realized it a long time ago." At this time, shopkeeper Wu sighed, and said with annoyance and regret: "Do you still remember that Madam went to East Street to close the shop? How could you close the shop on East Street if you have the ability? What about our shop on West Street? At that time, Madam was just merciful. What’s funny is that we actually thought she didn’t have this ability!”

Speaking of Gu Qingyuan, shopkeeper Qian suddenly had an idea.

To untie the bell, one must tie the bell. Since this shop belongs to the madam, why don’t they just go to the madam? If the madam can let them go, wouldn’t everyone be happy?
Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Qian cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, I have an idea that may help me. I wonder if you would like to listen to it?"

When Shopkeeper Wu heard this, he slapped the table and said anxiously: "Shopkeeper Qian! What time is it now? Can you please stop showing off and say what you have to say quickly?"

The others nodded after hearing this.

Shopkeeper Qian saw this and immediately expressed his thoughts.

Then, everyone fell silent again.

Looking for Gu Qingyuan is indeed a solution, but is it really useful?
"I don't think it's feasible." At this time, Shopkeeper Li said: "My wife is trying to harm us, is it really useful to find her?"

"The madam is not harming us, she just wants her things back. Since the madam is playing games with the old lady, she must need evidence. Only we know what we have done for the old lady over the years." Shopkeeper Qian said Here, his eyes darkened: "This is our bargaining chip."

It's a bargaining chip, and it's also their talisman.

Now Shopkeeper Qian just wants to keep his wife, children and children in good stead, and he doesn't think about anything else.

At the same time, in Gu Qingyuan's yard, Sui Han told Gu Qingyuan about the West Street shopkeeper going to Chen's place.

When Gu Qingyuan, who was lying on the bed, heard this, he couldn't help but laugh: "Really? It seems that those shopkeepers are not too stupid, at least they know how to find someone to save themselves, but they found the wrong person. Not only did Chen not know how to save them, They will also bury them with a layer of soil with their own hands."
