The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak
Chapter 806: Portrait of the Marquis
Cheng Fengqi turned around and showed Shang Xi his back.
The fifth brother said, "Why don't you two go home? It's just these few things, and your fifth sister-in-law and I will sell them."
Cheng Feng was stubborn: "I'm not going anywhere, I'm selling here, I have nothing to fear if I'm innocent, I was also a vendor before I met my uncle, why do I become a liar now that I'm a vendor? If you say I'm a liar, don't buy my stuff."
The fifth brother said, "Why are you still competing with yourself?"
Cheng Feng said, "I can't swallow this breath. I sold some honest things. Look at what they said about Shang Xi and me. They looked down on people. If I am willing to cheat people under the banner of my uncle, no one can do anything to me even if I kill people or set fires. Are Shang Xi and I such unscrupulous people? If I sell it for five cents, I will become a liar. If I sell it too high, they will say I am trying to get rich. If I sell it too low, they will say it is fake. It is not right to sell it high or low. I am not a human being."
Shang Xi comforted Cheng Feng and said, "Calm down. They can say whatever they want. We have nothing to fear. If these people don't buy our products, there are others who will. If these people don't trust us, there are others who will trust us. At least we haven't done anything immoral."
Shang Xi and the fifth brother persuaded the man with some words, and he finally calmed down. He didn't say anything again when someone came.
By the afternoon, the news had spread, and the fact that the Marquis's nephew and niece-in-law were setting up a stall on the street to sell alum had become a hot topic.
Sui Ying, who was particularly nosy, ran to Wan Lianxing's house and reported: "My Lord, their business is very bad."
Wan Lianxing said, "I knew this would happen. However, their business is bad. Why are you so happy?"
Suiying said, "I'm not happy. Lord, let me tell you, if business continues like this, it will have a bad impact on you."
Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "Selling a few buns that are neither vegetarian nor meaty will have a bad influence on me? Their buns are not bad. You ate a whole plate of them. The buns are barely okay."
Suiying said, "That's not what I'm talking about. They're selling alum under your name, which doesn't have a very good reputation."
Wan Lianxing raised his eyelids and said, "Impossible. They don't sell alum to make money. Besides, I let them sell it on purpose. Otherwise, people here would have nowhere to buy alum."
Suiying said, "It's true. If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself." He recounted the whole story. After listening to it, Wan Lianxing said, "Call these two people back."
Ge Dongqing on the side said: "My Lord, why did you ask them to come back? Let's go to the street and take a look."
Wan Lianxing said, "I'm too lazy to move."
Ge Dongqing stood up and went to pull Wan Lianxing and said, "Come on, big brother, let's go take a look."
Wan Lianxing had no choice but to get up and go out. Wan Lianxing wanted to take a carriage, but Ge Dongqing pulled him aside and said, "Brother, you don't like to go out recently. Let's walk there."
"Okay, let's go for a walk."
After crossing a street, Sui Xing stopped, the knife at his waist already in his hand. Wan Lian Xing asked, "What's wrong?"
The entourage said, "Someone is following us."
Suiying had noticed it a long time ago, and he said, "Don't alert the enemy, just move forward, I'll catch him later."
Ge Dongqing's heart tightened when he heard this. He grabbed Wan Lianxing's arm and said, "Brother, it can't be a killer."
Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "So what if he's a killer."
Ge Dongqing said, "I should have listened to my elder brother and taken the carriage. No, no, I shouldn't have suggested going out just now."
Wan Lianxing said, "Since you are out now, you should be more cheerful and stop looking so sad."
Ge Dongqing said: "Brother, the killer is following me, how can I laugh? I don't have your determination."
When Suiying saw this person following them to the second street, he cursed, "You bastard, you are so bold that you followed him right after he left the mansion. You actually dared to blatantly follow the Marquis for two streets. You are really courting death."
As soon as he finished speaking, Suiying ran away. When Ge Dongqing turned around, Suiying had already put the knife on the man's neck. The man was a thin man. He was frightened by Suiying and fell to his knees on the ground.
Ge Dongqing pulled Wan Lianxing and said, "Brother, the assassin has been caught."
The man waved his hands and said, "I'm not an assassin, I'm not a bad guy."
Wan Lianxing took a look and found that the man was so weak that he could not even tie a chicken, and from a distance he looked like a scholar.
Suiying grabbed his collar and brought him in front of Wan Lianxing, shouting fiercely: "Tell me, who sent you here?" Suiying's voice was like the roar of a tiger or a dragon, which was really intimidating. The man knelt on the ground and trembled, unable to utter a complete sentence: "No, no one sent me here."
Suiying said, "You want to harm the Marquis. You are so bold to follow us here."
"I'm not a bad person, I just want to be closer to the Marquis."
Suiying's knife moved closer to the man's neck, "You want to get close to the Marquis? You are tired of living, right?" Some blood seeped out from the man's neck.
The man kept begging for mercy, "I'm not a bad person, I just want to get closer to the Marquis so that I can observe him more conveniently..."
"The more you talk, the more unreasonable you become." Sui Xing kicked the man to the ground and said, "Search him."
At this time, two guards came up and searched the man's body. However, they found something like a scroll near his body. "My Lord, I found this."
The attendant opened it and kicked the man twice.
Suiying saw this and asked, "What is it? Is it a painting?"
"Look for yourself." Suixing handed the scroll to Suiying with a dark face. Suiying kicked the man twice and said, "You are a pervert."
Wan Lianxing asked, "What?"
Suiying said, "Your Majesty, please don't watch it. You will die of suffocation if you watch it."
Wan Lianxing said, "Bring it here, let me see it."
Suiying had no choice but to hand the scroll to Wan Lianxing. When Wan Lianxing opened it, he found that it was his own portrait. Suiying said, "This man is a pervert. A grown man, he carries the portrait of the Marquis close to his body. He is so corrupt and despicable."
Ge Dongqing said, "Let me see, let me see... Oh, I have to say, this painting is really good. Compared with the paintings of the Marquis, it is just like this. Good painting, good painting."
Suiying said: "No matter how good the painting is, this man cannot survive. This is a blasphemy to the beauty of my Lord."
The man lying on the ground was nearly suffocated by the kicks from Sui Xing and Sui Ying. He coughed a few times and blood came out of the corners of his mouth. "I'm not a bad person. I'm a painter. I'm not blaspheming the beauty of the Marquis. I admire the Marquis, so I want to paint for him."
When Suiying heard this, he said, "You still admire her. You are too despicable."
"My Lord, please spare me. My Lord, please spare me. Can't I just tell you the truth?"
