Chapter 197: Investigation
Seeing that there were more and more people with bad faces, those people came to the door and asked Zhuang Mingyue to explain to her with righteous indignation.
Because of this matter, Zhuang Mingyue's business plummeted, and her reputation in Beijing was not very good, and she was even more notorious due to this.
Zhuang Mingyue was helpless, she originally thought that the Qing person would clear herself, and this kind of thing would naturally come to light in the future, but now it seems that if she doesn't do something again, not only will she be affected, but her beauty shop will become the object of others' fingering, so her previous idea of wanting to move out of the dealer will be completely useless.
Zhuang Mingyue quickly sent someone to investigate this kind of thing, as long as he was willing to investigate, he would soon be able to find out the clues.
She first went to the house of a woman who claimed to have used Zhuang Mingyue's beauty plaster and her face rotted faster and faster.
The woman's head was wrapped in gauze, and her originally pretty face was tightly wrapped, and she could no longer see a single thing.
Seeing Zhuang Mingyue come in, this woman's face immediately showed a resentful light, and she screamed, "What are you doing here?" It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am now. You still have the face to come to our house and get out of here, or I'll kill you." ”
This woman came up indiscriminately and scolded her head and face, even if she had been prepared with the Lord in her heart, she still felt very unhappy.
She took a deep breath and tried her best to look at this woman with a pleasant face, "I know that it may be because of my beauty plaster that made your face come out with such a problem, and you should have a grudge against me, but I am only here today to clarify one thing to you, the reason for your bad face will definitely not be because of my beauty plaster, there is definitely another hidden behind this, I am here to help you solve this matter." ”
The woman sneered, "It's really nice to say, but it's a pity that if you really have this responsibility, then my face won't be rotten like it is now, and now if something happens, who will make a fake appearance to show it?" Get out of here. ”
"If you tell me about it in 1510, if it is really because of my store that you have become what you are now, then no matter how much compensation you want, as long as I can afford it, I will definitely accompany you, but if you are so stubborn, I don't want to think about your face in this life."
This woman drove Zhuang Mingyue outside three times and twice, and said evil words, no matter how good Zhuang Mingyue was, she couldn't bear it at the moment, she simply pulled down her face, and no longer saw the gentle appearance just now, threatening the woman with a fierce voice.
I have to say that Zhuang Mingyue's threat is still very effective. The woman really stopped the nonsense just now, and looked at Zhuang Mingyue with bright eyes, "What you said is true?" There really is a way to heal the wound on my face and will compensate me. ”
Zhuang Mingyue took a deep breath and solemnly assured the woman, "A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase, although I am not a gentleman, but I also know that the most important thing in doing business is integrity, since I have made such a guarantee for you, I will definitely not backtrack." ”
The woman looked Zhuang Mingyue up and down a few times with suspicion, but after thinking about it, she had become like this now, so it was better to listen to Zhuang Mingyue's words for the time being. Anyway, it won't be worse than it is now.
So she told everything one by one, "I've heard people say before that the beauty plasters in your beauty shop are very novel, and the effect is very good, but the price is still too expensive for people like me, and I can only look at it there every day." ”
"Oh? Since you can't afford it, how did you use the beauty plaster in my shop? Instead, it became what it is now? ”
As soon as she said this, a sad look appeared on the woman's face, "I often hang out in your shop. I happened to hear a few people say that your aunt is also selling the same beauty plasters as you, I went to investigate, and found that sure enough, your aunt sells these beauty plasters are exactly the same as those in your store, but the price is much lower. ”
"I was introduced to your aunt at last, and I was very suspicious at first. Whether she bought it is real or not, but she promised me that she is your own mother, and these beauty plasters are all water taken from your shop, and there will be absolutely no problems. So I believed her and bought a lot of beauty plasters from her, but rubbing them had no effect, but instead made my face look like this. ”
"I couldn't get angry and went to her, but your aunt said that she took these beauty plasters from you, and there will be absolutely no problems, if there is any problem, let me go to you, I really can't stand her saying this, which girl doesn't love beauty, so she can only go to you."
After hearing this woman say this, Zhuang Mingyue frowned, sure enough, it was her unsuccessful mother who was doing this kind of work behind her back, she couldn't figure it out, even if she was a woman, but she was now famous in the capital. Many people want to make friends with her, but this mother of mine wants to make her reputation stink.
Does she really not understand the truth that a three-year-old child will be able to prosper and lose?
Zhuang Mingyue couldn't sit down anymore, she took out a large amount of silver ticket from her arms and stuffed it into the woman's arms, "You take the money first, use the best medicinal materials, and heal your face, although she is my own mother, but the beauty plaster in her hand has nothing to do with the beauty plaster in my shop, it was all made by her in private, my beauty plaster uses a lot of expensive medicinal materials, how can it be sold as cheap as her." ”
Zhuang Mingyue's explanation made the peasant woman a little confused, "Isn't she your own mother?" How can you still make such a trick, isn't this smashing your signboard? ”
This simple truth that even the rural village woman understands, but her own mother can't understand it, Zhuang Mingyue sneered, didn't explain too much, but quickly left the peasant woman's house.
After leaving this farmer's house, Zhuang Mingyue went to several women's homes who said that they had used the beauty plasters in Zhuang Mingyue's shop. Wei He, they really told the truth of the matter.
The beauty plasters they bought for these people were not bought from Zhuang Mingyue at all, but from Aunt Shen, and when Aunt Shen sold them low-cost beauty plasters, she swore to them that these beauty plasters were all taken back from Zhuang Mingyue's store, and they were definitely genuine.
But after something went wrong, they went to Aunt Shen again, but Aunt Shen said that it was none of her business to wait and asked them to find Zhuang Mingyue.
After hearing these answers, Zhuang Mingyue threw down a silver ticket with a cold face and left directly, these people also knew that they were at a loss, and they didn't dare to speak up after obediently accepting the silver ticket.
After a day of running, Zhuang Mingyue integrated everything, and basically determined what the truth of this matter was.
That Aunt Shen stole some beauty plasters and raw materials from her shop, and even had formulas, and then made some cheap beauty plasters according to her own recipes. Then sell these cheap beauty plasters to women who can't afford to buy genuine copies, and these women go back to rot their faces after using them.
Aunt Shen instigated them to come to Zhuang Mingyue's shop to pick quarrels and provoke trouble.
Now that she knew who did this, Zhuang Mingyue felt that it was necessary for her to have a good talk with her mother-in-law.
On the other side, Aunt Shen was spitting and crying with a group of idle ladies about Zhuang Mingyue's behavior.
"Sisters, this kind of thing is originally a family ugly, and I don't want to publicize it, but my daughter won't let me worry about it this time. Now in this world, how can any girl go out and show her face. Look at what her reputation has become as a teacher in that academy now, where else does anyone want her if she goes on like this? ”
"For the sake of her own happiness, I went out of my way to tell her to give up this position to her brother. After a long time, no one remembered those rumors, she was naturally the original eldest lady, but she didn't listen to me, and went to build such a shop by herself, you tell me when she came into contact with this kind of work, and in the end there was not such a problem, and someone came to question her every day. ”
Speaking of this, Aunt Shen pretended to wipe her eyes twice and squeezed out two tears, "People's hearts are flesh and blood, and my daughter is also a piece of meat that fell from me, looking at her like this, how can I not feel sorry for my aunt, so I went to persuade her to let her get rid of the shop as soon as possible, let's not do this money with a conscience, and live a good life." But she didn't listen, and when I went to her shop to see it, I would be humiliated by her, saying that I coveted her shop, and she would never give it to me. ”
"The conscience of heaven and earth, who is a mother who doesn't want her daughter to be good, then there is such a reason, if she didn't cause so many things, why should I persuade her so hard?"
In the end, Aunt Shen was crying with grief, and the tears flowed down like money, and the faces of several ladies present showed indignant looks.
One of the husbands was quite powerful in the capital, and when she heard Aunt Shen say this, she was also full of resentment, "How can there be such a girl's family." When it is true, it is unseen and unheard. distorting the painstaking efforts of his parents into other meanings is really a white-eyed wolf with a wolf's heart and lungs. Such a woman, if you don't teach her a lesson, it's really not good, I don't know how high the sky is, treating my parents like this, it's really my conscience eaten by a dog. ”
