Chapter 14 Safeguarding Rights and Interests
This is the largest restaurant in the town, with two floors.Lobby on the first floor, private rooms on the second floor.

The first thing Bai Susu did when he came in was to ask if the shopkeeper was there, and asked Xiao Er to take her and Bai Jingyun to see the shopkeeper.

"Are you Lao Bai's daughter?"

The shopkeeper of the restaurant is a middle-aged man with dark skin and regular facial features. He looks kind.

"Yes." Bai Susu replied politely.

"No wonder your parents often mention you, saying that you are sensible and obedient. I saw you today, it's really like that." The shopkeeper was very kind, and he cast a satisfied look at Bai Susu while speaking.

Everyone knows that her parents passed away, and now there are only Bai Susu and her two younger brothers in the family.All the burdens fell on her alone.

After hearing the shopkeeper's words, Bai Susu's heart felt a little blocked.

The original owner's parents worked so hard to make money, it must be for the original owner's three siblings.

Unexpectedly, honest people have no good rewards, and before they have time to enjoy happiness, they both went to the underworld...

"By the way, did you come to see me today for something?" The shopkeeper was puzzled.

"That's it. I want to ask you to do me a favor." Bai Susu regained her composure and began to talk about the business.

"Help? Is there anything I can do for you?" The shopkeeper still looked puzzled.

"Do you still remember that my parents passed away, who handed over the pension money you gave to my parents?" Bai Susu confirmed to the shopkeeper.

"I remember it was your aunt. You and your two younger brothers live in her house, so she will pick it up on your behalf." The shopkeeper thought for a moment and replied truthfully.

"I would like to ask you to write a letter of proof for me, saying that you really gave my uncle the 40 taels of pension money from my parents." Bai Susu made a request.

This is also the purpose of her visit to the town today.

In order to persuade the shopkeeper to help, Bai Susu gave a rough account of how Mrs. Zhou swallowed the 40 taels of silver.

After hearing this, the shopkeeper was furious, and scolded Mrs. Zhou for being unkind, and immediately wrote a letter of proof according to Bai Susu's request.

"You are really nothing, uncle! You even have the heart to covet your parents' pension money! When she came to ask me for it that day, I thought she was quite honest. I didn't expect that, you know people, you know your face, but you don't know your heart."

Bai Susu didn't really want to talk more about her family affairs with others, so she responded with a few words when the shopkeeper scolded Mrs. Zhou.After receiving the certificate and confirming that it is correct, he greeted and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, the shopkeeper gave her another tael of silver.

Bai Susu's kindness is hard to get rid of, so he can only accept it.

"Uncle Peng!"

As soon as he left the shopkeeper's room, before reaching the stairs, Bai Jingyun suddenly called out.

Bai Susu raised her head subconsciously, and saw a man with a big belly going up the steps.

The memory of the original owner flooded back, and Bai Susu quickly recognized that this man was called Peng Hua, who was exactly the husband that Ma Chunhua said would make money and love her.

At this moment, Peng Hua was walking towards the private room with his arms around a woman's waist.

Because he focused all his attention on the woman, he didn't notice the existence of Bai Susu and Bai Jingyun.

"Peng...um."

Bai Jingyun wanted to call Peng Hua again, but Bai Susu covered his mouth.

Good guy!This is not the scene of rape!I actually ran into Ma Chunhua's husband cheating on me!
Bai Susu was still wondering if there was some misunderstanding, when she saw Peng Hua pouted and kissed the woman hard on the forehead.

She picked up Bai Jingyun and hurried downstairs.

"Sister, Uncle Peng is there, why don't you let me call him?" Bai Jingyun was full of doubts.

Although Ma Chunhua was close to Mrs. Zhou and had a bad temper, Peng Hua had always been kind to their three siblings.

"Uh, you read it wrong, that's not Uncle Peng." Bai Susu rolled her eyes and made up a lie to prevaricate.

We can't let Bai Jingyun know that Peng Hua is looking for mistress...

"Really?" Bai Jingyun was dubious.

"Really, you read it wrong." Bai Susu said seriously.

Sure enough, she was so young and easy to deceive, Bai Jingyun believed her when she saw that she was so serious.

On the way back, Bai Susu thought about it.

She was wondering whether to tell Ma Chunhua about this out of humanitarianism.

But according to Ma Chunhua's personality, she definitely wouldn't believe what she said.There may even be conspiracy theories, thinking that she is making up and deliberately provoking the relationship between their husband and wife.

But if you don't tell, then Ma Chunhua will be too miserable.

Her husband is outside in his arms, but she is still immersed in the dream that her husband loves her and she is very happy.

Forget it.

Bai Susu considered for a moment, and finally decided to ignore it for the time being.

After tossing back and forth for two hours, it was already afternoon when the siblings returned home.Zhou Ximing just took a nap and got up to wash his face with hot water when he saw Bai Susu rushing into the room.

"You help me take care of Jingyun, I'll go out to do something."

Bai Susu told Zhou Ximing.

"Where are you going?" Zhou Xi was confused.

Today, Bai Susu came and went without a trace all day, and she didn't explain clearly what she was doing when asked her.

"I'll tell you when I come back. Take care of the two of them for me. If anything happens to them, I can't spare you!"

Bai Susu clenched one hand into a fist and waved towards Zhou Ximing.

Afterwards, before Zhou Ximing opened her mouth to ask, she had already run away in a flash.

Bai Susu found Lizheng and handed him the certificate written by the shopkeeper of the restaurant.

"You see, my mother-in-law's pension was embezzled by Mrs. Zhou. Li Zheng, you have to decide for us three."

As she spoke, she sniffled, and tears filled her eyes.

The evidence is conclusive, and the old lady Zhou should return the money to Bai Susu if she is emotional and reasonable.Li Zheng immediately called for Mrs. Zhou to come.

Since Li was asking her to come, it was hard for her to refuse, and she found out that Bai Susu was also waiting here.

"Why are you here?" Mrs. Zhou glared angrily, looking at Bai Susu in disgust.

Bai Susu didn't speak, but looked at Li Zheng.

A shrew like Mrs. Zhou, if you want her to pay back the money, she kills herself and refuses to take it, but if you want to show evidence, she can force her to kill you.Left and right her, Bai Susu, couldn't really kill someone for 40 taels.

So she decided not to go head-to-head with Mrs. Zhou, she went directly to Li Zheng.

No matter how arrogant Mrs. Zhou is, she won't be able to ignore the king's law.

"Let me ask you, did you take the pension money from the little girl's parents?" Lizheng asked Mrs. Zhou.

As soon as the words fell, Mrs. Zhou's face collapsed.

"Lizheng, what do you mean by that? Maybe you really don't believe what she said? Let me tell you, you look at her very honestly, but in fact, this bastard is really smart..."

"Cough cough."

The more Mrs. Zhou talked, the more she went too far, and Lizheng couldn't take it anymore, so she coughed twice, signaling her to shut up.

Regarding this, Bai Susu felt nothing in his heart.

She didn't expect to spit out any ivory from Mrs. Zhou's mouth.

"It's not that they wronged you without evidence. You see, it's written in black and white." Li Zheng pointed out the proof on the table to Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou was not very literate, so after looking at the certificate for a long time, she recognized her name and the words "40 taels of pension silver".

"What does this prove?"
