The customer nodded in agreement as Gu Zi’s tone took on a serious note. She stated solemnly, “I am deeply grateful for your informing me of this matter. As a partner in this shop, I assure you all that we only use legitimate ingredients for our braised meat. We absolutely do not add any substances like poppy flowers to deceive our customers’ taste buds.”

Lin Cheng and Lin Hun entered, carrying a box of meat. Upon hearing Gu Zi’s words, they set the box down. Lin Cheng’s expression turned somber as he began, “Actually, we came here to discuss this very matter. Lin Hun, you tell her.”

Lin Hun wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand, his voice filled with indignation. “Sister-in-law, I ran into one of my old followers today when I left Little Lin Village. The guy was spouting nonsense, claiming that our braised meat shop uses poppy flowers to enhance the flavor of our meat. I punched him right then and there, nearly flattening him.”

After hearing this, Gu Zi understood. It seemed that the rumor had been circulating for a while now. Most likely, the entire town and village had heard it. However, it appeared that no one knew the source of the rumor. For now, they could only discuss with his sister-in-law and take precautions.

Gu Zi made up his mind, maintaining a calm demeanor. “Alright, I understand. By the way, why are you delivering meat now?”

As Gu Zi made way for them, Lin Cheng and Lin Hun carried the meat inside. Upon their return, Lin Cheng began to explain while deep in thought, “Su Shen specifically asked us to deliver it. This batch won’t be charged. He said it’s a token of his appreciation as your husband and a partner in the shop.”

Lin Cheng spoke slowly, recalling the conversation he had with Su Shen, who had just finished dealing with some documents at the time. Su Shen’s habitual stern expression made Lin Cheng somewhat nervous, causing his memory of the conversation to be a bit shaky.

He didn’t understand why, despite knowing that Su Shen took special care of him because of Gu Zi, Lin Cheng always felt a cold aloofness and domineering aura from his brother-in-law. This made him slightly nervous every time he saw him.

Deep down, he couldn’t simply regard him as his brother-in-law. He was constantly reminded that his brother-in-law was also his boss. This made him extremely nervous around Su Shen. At first, he couldn’t understand how his sister managed to get along with her husband. Wasn’t she afraid of Su Shen? freēnovelkiss.com

However, Lin Cheng’s impression of Su Shen had changed over time. Su Shen was not a cold-hearted person; he was just not accustomed to showing his emotions.

On the contrary, he was more considerate than most people and genuinely cared for his sister. Apart from being older than his wife, he was practically flawless as a husband.

Upon hearing this, Gu Zi felt a ripple in her heart. She knew that her husband was deliberately trying to make her feel cherished. This feeling was very important to a woman. Once she felt it, it was enough to make her happy for the entire day.

Just as Gu Zi was about to suggest they all return to the village in the delivery truck, a series of loud shouts came from outside, sounding like a pig being slaughtered, attracting everyone’s attention.

Li Hua looked outside and hurriedly said, “That sounds like Gui Hua. She’s shouting so loudly, something must have happened. I’ll go check it out.”

As soon as Li Hua left, Lin Cheng followed. Gu Zi, holding Su Le, also went out, calling Lin Hun to join them. Since there were still people watching the shop, they all decided to see what had happened. If nothing was wrong, that would be best. If something had happened, they wouldn’t need to go back and find more help.

As they reached the shop entrance, they could clearly hear Gui Hua’s cries, which were both pitiful and somewhat amusing. “Help! Is there anyone who can save me? I fell from upstairs. Oh, my leg hurts so much. Please save me. There’s a reward for the one who helps me!”

They quickened their pace and arrived under the loft inside Gui Hua’s shop. There, they found Gui Hua lying on the ground, wailing. Her clothes were wet near her shoulder, and several broken soda bottles were scattered nearby. It seemed she had slipped and fallen from the loft stairs while carrying the soda. Her condition looked quite serious, as if she had broken a bone.

Li Hua was about to help her up when Gu Zi quickly stopped her. “Don’t move her yet. We don’t know her condition. Gui Hua, are you feeling dizzy? Can you move the leg you fell on? Try to move it yourself.”
