Farm Girl: General, Please Accept

The person in the lead was dressed in a short-fought outfit. His skin was dark and he was about the same age as Soong Yun. However, his eyes were filled with viciousness.    

His eyes glanced at Soong Yun. Even though there were so many people behind him, Soong Yun's face was calm and unflustered as he looked into Soong Yun's eyes.    

"Are you the boss here?"    

Soong Yun said, "What can I do for you?"    

"What can I do for you?" Hearing this, the man immediately sneered and pulled out a chair from the side before sitting down. He said, "Who told you to open a shop here?"    

Lee Wanning heard the voices below her. When she came down and saw what was happening, her expression couldn't help but change. She walked over with a frown and asked, "Who are you people?"    

That man's eyes were focused on Lee Wanning's body without restraint. When his subordinates whispered something in his ear, that man said, "It seems like you are the boss here, right?"    

Lee Wanning looked at him without fear. "Yes, may I ask who you are?"    

"Who told you to open a shop here?" The man said.    

Lee Wanning found his words funny, but she still laughed and said, "I just bought this store and opened a store, is there a problem?"    

"The person who sold it to you didn't tell you whose territory this is?"    

"Of course." Lee Wanning said, "This is the territory of Yingjia, is there a problem?"    

After Lee Wanning finished speaking, Soong Yun, who was beside her, immediately laughed. Kang Kang pursed her lips and also smiled. That look of hers made the man's expression change. Then, he immediately stood up.    

"Bastard, you're just giving me face, aren't you!?"    

Soong Yun immediately blocked the man in front of him when he saw that the man looked like he was about to make a move. He stared at the man in front of him.    

Soong Yun's face was calm, which made the man shudder and frown.    

Actually, Lee Wanning understood what he meant, he just wanted to collect the protection fees.    

With so many people with him, although Soong Yun's eyes didn't show any sign of cowardice and Lee Wanning knew that Soong Yun was pretty skilled, a wise man doesn't fight when the odds are against him. Lee Wanning thought about it and still stood in front of Soong Yun.    

She said, "Big brother, don't be so agitated, I'm just saying this. If you feel that what I've said is wrong, then I'll say it again. Big brother, you're also a straightforward person. Just tell me what you want to do."    

Lee Wanning's eyes were filled with sincerity. As the man looked at her, he couldn't help but frown.    

But the person behind him said, "What do you want? This is my big brother's territory, what do you want to do in the business here? "    

Lee Wanning smiled and said, "I understand, but I don't know the rules here. I don't know what you are …" "How much do you need?"    

Hearing Lee Wanning's words, that person immediately felt reassured and stretched out a finger.    

Soong Yun raised his eyebrows and said, "10 taels of silver?"    

"Ten taels?" Are you sending beggars away? " "One hundred liang!" The voice of the man behind him was loud and clear. "One hundred liang!"    

Even Lee Wanning frowned slightly when she heard that. She said, "One month?"    

"One day!"    

Although Soong Yun had done this before, he had never heard of the one hundred taels per day price because after hearing his words, Soong Yun wanted to rush up.    

Lee Wanning looked at the person in front of her and said, "As you can see, I'm just a small shop. You want me to give you 100 taels of silver a day, do you want us to starve to death?"    

"You can't take it out, right? If you can't take it out, then smash it! "    

The leader finally felt impatient. When he shouted that those people really wanted to smash him, Lee Wanning also shouted, "I want to see who dares!?"    

Hearing Lee Wanning's words, those people really did stop fighting.    

Lee Wanning narrowed her eyes and looked at the person in front of her. She placed the silver on the table and said, "Here are ten taels of silver, we don't want to cause any trouble. If you want to destroy the store, then try it."    

Lee Wanning's eyes were cold, and that gaze caused the men to stop in their tracks. He looked at Lee Wanning and said, "You woman, you really took your own life …"    

"The reason why I think so highly of myself is because I have the capital. Do you think that I, who have nothing at all, would dare to open a shop here?"    

Lee Wanning's words immediately made those people bewildered. Lee Wanning said, "You can take this silver. I'll treat it as a kindness and not need your protection. If you still want to pester me, just watch how I bully you."    

After Lee Wanning finished her sentence, she turned around and walked away, "Kang Kang, Soong Yun, see our guest out!"    

Those people stood still for a long time. Soong Yun's hands were ready to pull out the swords that he carried with him. What surprised him was that those people actually turned around and left just like that.    

Lee Wanning's hands were actually trembling. This shop being destroyed was a small matter. What she was afraid of was that after today, no one would ever dare to come here again.    

However, it was quiet downstairs. While Lee Wanning was listening, Soong Yun and Kang Kang had already come up.    

Soong Yun smiled and said, "Maybe it's because of the general, but Madam always has a bit of spirit on her."    

Lee Wanning said, "You are wrong. Zhou Qu is no longer a general, and I am no longer a general's wife."    

"One day, the general will come back."    

Hearing Soong Yun's confident words, Lee Wanning's expression changed. She looked at Soong Yun and saw that he had already left.    

Lee Wanning immediately frowned.    

On the second day, those people really did not come to cause trouble. The business of the store was pretty good, and they did not find anyone yet. Lee Wanning was busy working by herself at the front desk.    

Soong Yun didn't like to play with these women. He just stood by the door. Kang Kang didn't talk, so she helped Zhou Bao and Lee Wanning. Lee Wanning could only keep busy all by herself.    

The whole morning, Lee Wanning felt her mouth going dry. Kang Kang brought a cup of tea to herself, and Lee Wanning just stood there, looking at the account book as it was cleared.    

Lee Wanning managed money pretty well. Soong Yun looked at her account book and said, "Madam, did you learn this before?"    

Lee Wanning's calligraphy could not be considered pretty, but it was still neat and pretty.    

Lee Wanning yawned and said, "No, it's just a habit I had since I was young."    

Soong Yun nodded. Lee Wanning took advantage of the fact that there was no one around and was about to go take a break, when she heard a voice, "Excuse me, is Lee Wanning, Miss Lee, here?"    

When Lee Wanning heard this, she raised her head and was stunned when she saw a woman in pink palace dress standing there.    

Naturally, she recognized the person in front of her. It was a small palace maid that was following beside Consort Hua.    

Lee Wanning stepped forward and said, "I'm here."    

When the person saw him, he heaved a sigh of relief and pointed to the teahouse across the street. "Our Empress is waiting for you there."    

Hearing this, Lee Wanning's face was filled with shock. She knew that the people inside the palace, especially with Consort Hua's status, couldn't casually leave the palace. Consort Hua was like this …    

Lee Wanning didn't have any time to think about it. She told Soong Yun and the others that she would follow the palace maid to the teahouse across the street after she went out for a trip.    

Consort Hua wore a light purple dress with a veil of the same color covering her face. Even though she was in a private room, she only took off her veil when she saw him.    

Consort Hua's appearance was famous even in the imperial palace, and now, under the bright sunlight, it was even more dazzling.    

While Lee Wanning was watching, Consort Hua had already said, "It's no longer convenient for you to enter the palace with your current identity. Since I want to see you again, this is my first time coming up with a plan."    

Lee Wanning said, "Will it be alright for Consort Dowager Hua to leave the palace like that?"    

"I already told the Emperor that the Emperor agreed."    

Hearing Consort Hua's words, Lee Wanning relaxed. Consort Hua looked out the window, and from there she could see Lee Wanning's storefront.    

Consort Hua said, "Your shop seems to be quite interesting?"    

"Fortunately, I've opened one before. If the Empress wants it, I can give you a set."    

Consort Hua said, "What is that?"    

"Niangniang, wait a moment, I'm going back inside the shop for a bit."    

Lee Wanning turned to leave, but Consort Hua said, "There's no need to be busy. I came looking for you because I wanted to tell you something."    

Lee Wanning nodded. Consort Hua said, "His Majesty's body is already at the end of its tether."    

Lee Wanning's expression changed when she heard Consort Hua's words. Consort Hua continued, "General Zhou is at the border, is everything alright?"    

In Lee Wanning's memory, Consort Hua never liked to ask about these things. She naturally believed that Consort Hua was sincere towards the emperor.    

When Zhou Qu was in the prison, she was in Consort Hua's bedroom. It was only because Consort Hua made a move for her that Lee Wanning remembered to force the emperor to show up by abducting Consort Hua.    

Lee Wanning would never forget such a favor, but she thought Consort Hua only cared about her because she felt sorry for her …    

While Lee Wanning was thinking this, she looked at Consort Hua and saw her smiling at her. She said, "You want General Zhou to come back, right?"
