Chapter 756: Chapter 756 Envy Arrives (4)_1

It’s not right for Pei Qin and her brother, both from Taiping Town, to have the chance to make money and give it to another village while not offering it to their own people. The Fang family is her maternal grandparents’ family, but the people from Fang Family Village don’t know them and never helped them out. When Pei Qin’s family fell on hard times, some of the villagers were able to speak up for them!

Mrs. Miao came out and incited them to go find Pei Qin to make a fuss, "... Being resentful towards our family is useful? We are not planning to manage the workshop and it does not hinder her from opening one. You should just go to her directly, and if she opens up, then that’s it! When it comes down to deciding who to entrust with its management, you can find whoever you want, we don’t care!"

Once the villagers were stirred up by her, some of them boldly went to find them.

Unfortunately for them, they ran into Pei Qian, "Whether to open a workshop or not is my family’s business, and we’ve already said that we will consider starting a workshop if we sell a lot. What is this about? Who instigated you to come here and cause trouble?!" Anyway, whenever she saw anyone with the surname Kong, she did not have a good impression. The workshop belonged to her family, and yet they dared to cause a fuss.

The reason these people came was that although Pei Qin could be fierce when she got angry, it was a rare occurrence, usually, she was quite easy to talk to. So after listening to a few words that resonated with them, they followed along. After all, if a workshop was set up in the town, they could work and get paid, and possibly earn a share of the profits. Besides, if it sold a lot, it was them who made the money, not them! They just wanted a small part of it.

Pei Qian looked over the people who had come, and sneered, "Since you’ve been swayed by a few words to come to my house and cause trouble, let the person who talked you into this come and speak for themselves!" Now that they saw her earning more money, these shameless people were getting jealous. Even if the workshop opened, there wouldn’t be a share for them!

Hearing her say this, some were immediately worried that her anger might ruin the workshop deal, hastily explaining that they were not there to cause trouble, just to ask and to request, not to make a fuss.

Pei Qian was unconvinced, "With such envy and zeal you’ve been incited to make a fuss and you can’t even wait for a year. Do you really think, when the workshop does open, you’ll get to share in the profits?!"

As soon as these words came out, some people got scared, on one hand trying to explain they had not come to make trouble, and on the other, trying to shift the blame, "... It was all Mrs. Miao, she incited us to come! She said that you did not want everyone to benefit, which is why you’re not opening the workshop."

Mrs. Miao’s words were believable to Pei Qian, but the people she had fetched were no good either! They thought she would turn her against Mrs. Miao? Hmph! She glanced coldly, "If there’s any more trouble or disturbances, even if the workshop opens, there won’t be a share for them!"

Thinking they could just come over, have a talk, make a request and, if she was not pleased, they could turn to Sun Lizheng to step in and get the workshop deal done. They didn’t expect to be threatened instead.

Seeing Pei Qian’s grim expression, they all knew she meant business. Now that Pei Qin was pregnant, she was mostly in charge of the workshop matters and her word carried weight. They immediately dared not linger outside, dispersing quickly.

After Pei Qian entered the room, she couldn’t help but curse, "It must be Kong’s mother’s family stirring up trouble! That vixen Mrs. Miao isn’t any good either! Her own daughter causes harm and she blames others!"

Pei Qin holding a letter from Fang Liuming, "There’s news about Kong’s, do you want to see it?"

Pei Qian took the letter to read.

Kong’s was not divorced, not only that, but she also opened a noodle shop in Capital Jingcheng, selling helao noodles and sesame paste pancakes.

Pei Qian looked at it and her face immediately darkened, "Do they have no shame? They dare to sell our helao noodles and pancakes?!"

Fang Liuming had someone buy them, and the helao noodles tasted different from theirs; they didn’t have the alkaline water added. But the sesame paste pancakes were very similar, not only did they add sesame paste but also meat, and many people went to eat them.
