Chapter 758: Chapter 758 Envy Arrives (6)_1

"If we’re talking about dealing with the Kongs? If I really wanted to deal with them, I would set up a workshop in the town and whoever beats up a person surnamed Kong, that family would get a share of the profits," Pei Qin stood at the street corner and exclaimed angrily.

Several women who were discussing things with Kong Yijia’s household jumped in fright.

Kong Yijia’s family also paled with fear.

"It’s been a while since the old lady stirred up trouble, and it seems some people have forgotten that the old lady is not to be trifled with!" Pei Qin sneered, her gaze sweeping over those from Kong Yijia’s household.

Kong Yijia’s household shrank their necks and opened their mouths as if to say something. Seeing her stern countenance and daunting presence, they didn’t dare to speak.

A granny hastily smiled sheepishly, "There are also good people with the surname Kong; it’s not just Kong’s family. Everyone else understands that clearly in their hearts!"

Kong Yijia’s family hurriedly agreed, "Yes! Yes! Just take our family, for example, we don’t associate with their kind!"

Pei Qin smirked coldly, "Isn’t Kong Yi’s father cousins with Kong Xiulian’s father? Are you that quick to betray your own ancestors?"

The face of Kong Yijia’s family stiffened and their forced smiles grew uglier, "Our family head doesn’t even acknowledge any kinship with them! They as brothers are one family, and we have long been a separate family!"

Pei Qin watched her coldly, pursed her lips and laughed softly, then turned and went to the workshop.

Only after she walked away did Kong Yijia’s family finally breathe a sigh of relief and patted their chests, "She really scares you to death when she pulls rank! I was really afraid that I might accidentally get hit!"

The other women and grannies didn’t dare say much more either. Kong Xiulian seemed gentle and didn’t look like that sort of person, but there was no guarantee that shameless Pei Houli wouldn’t sell off their hwatiao noodles and sesame sauce pancakes.

"Close to vermilion, one gets stained red; close to ink, one gets stained black. Those that have entered the Old Pei’s House are bound to be tarnished and learn malevolence, even if they were originally good!"

Pei Qin only had to come out once, and the atmosphere in the town immediately changed.

"Those people are only saying those brainless things because they think Xiao Pei is easy to talk to!" Granny Sun said indignantly whenever she met someone.

When the news reached Back Mountain Village, Lady Chen immediately cursed, "They think they’re the only ones who can sell rounded noodles; others can’t sell rounded noodles too? As if the sesame sauce pancakes are theirs, pah! There are plenty of pancakes in the world! Are they all theirs? Long before, others had already made sesame sauce pancakes; it counts as theirs too!? They just learned from others and made something that has been done before. Once it passes through their hands, others can’t make it anymore!? I’ve never seen anyone so shameless, claiming it as their own and forbidding others to do it! A cheap wretch is always a cheap wretch! No matter how wealthy or noble they become, they can’t wash off their lowliness!"

Pei Qin even came out and said that if things come to dealing with those surnamed Kong, they better not wait until she gets angry on a later date, as she might deal with Back Mountain Village too. Pei Houli and Pei Wenbo, following Kong’s to Capital Jingcheng and selling someone else’s hwatiao noodles and sesame sauce pancakes, truly have no shame. Once Pei Qin and her group go to Jingcheng, they would definitely cause a scene, and then the Kongs would be finished.

No one responded to her words, so Lady Chen also stopped cursing. What infuriated her even more was that Kong’s had taken Pei Houli and Pei Wenbo to Capital Jingcheng and they hadn’t returned after going there to broaden their horizons. Up to now, they haven’t returned, have opened a noodle shop, and don’t seem to plan on coming back! Without a word about their return, she was left alone in this poor countryside to wait on two wretched elders, working herself to half-death every day!

Lady Zhu watched Lady Chen as she muttered and cursed, on guard in case she secretly went off to Jingcheng too. If she was to go, why shouldn’t she, the old lady, go as well? They all ran off to enjoy wealth and luxury in Jingcheng!

Lady Chen had no desire to wait on her and thought bitterly about how Kong’s enjoyed luxury in Jingcheng, with Pei Houli taking his younger son off to leisure. They didn’t have much money to start a noodle shop; it was definitely relying on the silver from her daughter Wenlee. Pei Qin’s despicable brats could open a shop to sell pancakes and make money, and there were even more wealthy people in Jingcheng, so surely Kong’s could make a good deal too. The second branch had a silk and satin shop, which was Qian Wanxiu’s dowry. This noodle shop would be the business of their main branch, and had nothing to do with the second branch anymore!
