Chapter 1294: 1294 Soft Rice King 4 Chapter 1294: 1294 Soft Rice King 4 “Indeed, Boss Xiao doesn’t care whether his wife has money or not, making it seem like he is the one living off her…” An aunt in the crowd, touched by what Xiao Yuchuan had just professed to Su Qingyue, chimed in in support.

“The shop and mansion of the Xiao Mansion, Su Qingyue claims they’re not in Xiao Yuchuan’s name; she might have said that on purpose, to save Xiao Yuchuan some face.

And you all actually believe that?” Jin Xun disdained.

“Lady Xiao doesn’t seem like a liar…” As soon as a passerby said this, someone immediately retorted, “My mom said, the more beautiful the woman, the more deceitful she is…”

Su Qingyue glanced at County Magistrate Zheng Dejun, who was dressed in a brocade robe and was helping Grandma Zheng over, “The county magistrate is here, whether the property deed is in my husband’s name can be known with a single question.”

County Magistrate Zheng had also heard the ongoing discussion and spoke up, “Su Qingyue is indeed correct.

When Xiao Yuchuan registered the property, he came alone but requested that only his wife’s name be written.”

“There, the county magistrate has said so.” Su Qingyue gave Jin Xun a cold look, “Do you have anything else to say?”

“Hmph.” Jin Xun snorted coldly.

Xiao Yuchuan stepped forward to assist Grandma Zheng, “Grandma Zheng, why have you come over?”

“The Xiao family is opening three shops at once, Qingyue has been kind to me, and I am quite fond of her.

Of course, I have to come and show my support,” Grandma Zheng said warmly.

County Magistrate Zheng also joined in, “Grandma is getting on in years, and as an official, I couldn’t rest assured with her going out alone, so naturally, I accompanied her here.”

With a wave of his hand, the servant behind him presented a wooden box as a congratulatory gift.

“Thank you, Grandma Zheng, County Magistrate Zheng.” Su Qingyue was also somewhat moved and gave her maid Yinzhu a knowing look.

Maid Yinzhu stepped forward respectfully to accept the congratulatory gift.

“The opening of the Xiao Mansion’s store really has prestige, even the county magistrate has come to offer his congratulations…” Someone in the crowd whispered.

Another person asked, “How did Su Qingyue save the county magistrate’s grandma?”

“You’re not aware of this, but the county magistrate is a newly appointed official, having been away from home for many years.

Lai Tou often stole from Grandma Zheng and even hit the old lady.

At that time, Su Qingyue bravely stepped in, not only retrieving Grandma Zheng’s moneybag but also crippling Lai Tou, ridding the public of a menace.

Now, County Magistrate Zheng is here out of gratitude…”

“Looking at it this way, County Magistrate Zheng is an official of integrity and compassion, a blessing for the common people…”

Listening to the passersby discussing this, a satisfied expression flickered in County Magistrate Zheng’s eyes.

Jin Xun had brought a large group of experts, intending to destroy the Xiao Family’s store.

Seeing the county magistrate coming in person, while he might be wealthy, Jin Xun was still only a commoner.

He had some connections, but it wouldn’t be appropriate to lose the county magistrate’s face, so he pretended to exchange pleasantries with the magistrate for a few moments and then left with his group of family servants.

Since even the county magistrate is supporting the Xiao family, the onlookers who initially weren’t planning to eat anything all rushed into the Xiao Family’s restaurant.

Xiao Yishan’s tall and sturdy form, accompanied by Li Rong’er, arrived at the entrance of the Xiao Family’s shop.

Both dressed in new clothes, Li Rong’er had also made a deliberate effort to dress up.

“Third brother!” Xiao Yishan called out.

“Second brother?” Xiao Yuchuan walked over to him, “You…

came.”

“How could I, as the second brother, not come when the third brother’s shop is opening,” Xiao Yishan said with a simple smile, seemingly not minding that Xiao Yuchuan hadn’t invited him.

Seeing County Magistrate Zheng, whom she had met before in Wushan Village, Li Rong’er immediately paid her respects, “I am Li Rong’er, your servant, and I’ve seen the county magistrate!”
