Chapter 186: Begging for Money or Food

While Tong Huaqiong was busy in the shop, she didn't know that her cheap brother was eating for free in Fengle Building.

She estimated the time when Tong Fusheng would arrive in the town and came out twice to remind Gu Dashu to be on high alert.

Gu Dashu said that his eyes were dazzled and he didn't see Tong Fusheng.

"I guess my uncle and his family have returned home." said Gu Dashu.

According to Gu Dashu's opinion, it would be wise for Tong Fusheng to go home rather than come to town.

They had no money and Taohua Dessert would not provide them with food, so it would be better for them to go back to Heilong Village instead of begging in the town.

"You can't relax until dark." Tong Huaqiong scolded Gu Dashu.

Gu Dashu said yes and continued to stare at the people in line.

It was soon evening after all the busy work.

Tong Fusheng's family has not shown up, and Tong Huaqiong guessed that they have returned to Heilong Village.

I felt a little relieved.

After Tong Huaqiong heard that Ma Huateng had settled the bill, she decided to "go off work" and close the shop.

When only the Tong family members were left in the shop, Manager Qian came with Tong Fusheng and his family of four.

"Shopkeeper Tong, I've brought your brother and sister-in-law here..." Shopkeeper Qian was very happy, feeling like he had done a great thing.

Tong Huaqiong cursed in her heart and gave him a fierce look.

Shopkeeper Qian saw that Tong Huaqiong was unhappy and became uneasy.

"Didn't we agree this morning at Qinghe Bay that we would never have any contact again? Why are you coming to my house again? Are you asking for money or for food?" Tong Huaqiong asked with a sneer.

Tong Fusheng and Wang's faces fell.

I thought that since they were accompanied by the rich shopkeeper, Tong Huaqiong would let them in out of consideration for outsiders and believe that "family disgrace should not be made public".

Tong Huaqiong directly pointed out her dissatisfaction with them.

Shopkeeper Qian was sweating profusely and stamped his feet. He had done a bad thing.

Knowing that Tong Fusheng and Wang were Tong Huaqiong's brother and sister-in-law, he rushed up to curry favor with them without considering anything else, offering them banquets and drinks. This time he was flattering the horse right away.

Shopkeeper Tong didn't know what to think of him.

His feelings haven't been confessed yet, so they won't die.

Shopkeeper Qian gritted his teeth and said, "Shopkeeper Tong, look at what has happened. I thought they were your brother and sister-in-law, so I entertained them..."

Tong Huaqiong said angrily: "Even if it's my brother and sister-in-law, why would you rush over to curry favor with them?"

This shopkeeper Qian must be added to the blacklist. He is trying to curry favor with the Tong family just to have a romantic relationship with them. Who knows what he will do in the future.

Tong Huaqiong gave Manager Qian a lecture, and Manager Qian felt he was in the wrong and ran away in shame.

He was afraid that if he didn't run away, Tong Huaqiong would kill him with her eyes.

I was too embarrassed to ask Tong Fusheng for the banquet, so I could only blame myself for my bad luck.

"What are you doing here? Look at my shop. Look, this is my shop. Let me make it clear first, you'd better give up the idea of ​​taking advantage of it. I won't let Zhaodi and Zhijie work in the shop, and I will certainly not let you two, brother and sister-in-law, come to the shop to boss people around. This shop has nothing to do with you."

Tong Huaqiong did not let them in, but stood at the door and chased them away.

It was fine when Tong Fusheng and Wang Shi didn't see the shop, but when they actually stood at the door of the shop, their eyes widened.

The shop was bigger than they had imagined.

When they were at Fengle Building, they had already heard from the waiter that Taohua Dessert was crowded with customers every day and that business was booming. It could be said that Tong Huaqiong was making money just by doing it.

If a shop like this were divided among the Tong family, the whole family would have enough to live on even if they just sit there.

As they walked out of the gate of Fengle Building, they agreed that they must stick to Tong Huaqiong no matter what.

Wang smiled and said, "Sister, we don't intend to take advantage of you. It's not easy for you to be a widow. Now that you have a shop, your brother and sister-in-law are very happy. We came here to discuss an important matter with you."

Tong Huaqiong looked at Wang, wondering what she was trying to say.

"Sister, this is about my niece Taohua. It's not appropriate for us to talk about this standing at the door. Why don't we go inside and talk about it?"

Tong Huaqiong was impatient to hear this, so she said, "If you have anything to say, come on. Let me make it clear, I have no money, no food, and it is impossible for you to work in the shop."

She actually wanted to hear something about Gu Taohua.

Tong Huaqiong thought that he was probably in cahoots with Shopkeeper Qian and was planning to plot against Gu Taohua.

It's okay for them to sell their own daughter, but they can't sell her daughter.

As long as they mentioned Manager Qian, she would let Gu Dashu beat them up.

Tong Fusheng and Wang looked at Tong Zhijie, asking him to speak.

Tong Zhijie received the hint from his parents, gritted his teeth and said to Tong Huaqiong: "Since auntie asked us to speak at the door, I will speak softly. Auntie, I want to marry Gu Taohua."

As soon as Tong Zhijie said this, everyone in the Gu family looked at him.

He really dares to think!

Gu Taohua threw the account book, jumped out from behind the counter, and cursed: "Give up on this idea as soon as possible. I will never marry you even if I don't want to marry anyone."

Gu Dashu rolled up his sleeves and was about to beat Tong Zhijie, but was stopped by Tong Fusheng.

Tong Huaqiong gave Gu Taohua a calming look and asked, "Zhijie, who gave you the courage to ask Taohua to marry me?"

The Tong family felt that they had no chance of getting involved in the business, so they wanted to take a roundabout way and let Tong Zhijie marry Gu Taohua.

Tong Zhijie is not much better than Fan Tong.

Tong Zhijie resisted the urge to roll his eyes. His aunt's question was hilarious. Who gave him the courage? The fact that he was willing to marry Gu Taohua must be a great honor for the Gu family.

Who would be willing to marry her except him?

Wang came up to smooth things over and said, "Taohua is fourteen this year. She has lived with Zhijie for several years. They are childhood sweethearts and know each other very well. It would be better if Gu Taohua's marriage was decided early, so that outsiders would not have any arguments when her marriage was mentioned."

Tong Fusheng said it more bluntly: "Your sister-in-law is right. No one likes your niece at the age of fourteen. It will be even harder to find a husband when she grows up. You won't keep her at home forever. I told Zhijie that Taohua is your aunt's biological daughter after all. You should think about your aunt. When these two children get married, it will be a closer relationship. Taohua will be both my niece and my daughter-in-law. This is better than marrying someone from outside."

What this means is that Gu Taohua is fourteen years old and no one has come to propose marriage to her. It is an honor for Gu Taohua that the Tong family is willing to accept her.

It's no wonder the Tong family thought this way. For pure ancient people like them, if a 14-year-old girl had no one to meet her, it would be a shame for the entire family.

No matter how useless Tong Zhijie is, as long as he is willing to marry Gu Taohua, he is the benefactor of the Gu family.

If it were Tong Da Jiao, she might fall for it.

But Tong Huaqiong is not Tong Dajiao.

Tong Huaqiong put her hands on her hips and cursed, "You are right, we know each other well. Tong Zhijie, you are so young and you are visiting brothels. You still want to get married. I think it's dirty even if you carry shoes for Gu Taohua."

"You think I don't know what you are up to? You just want to get involved in my shop but are afraid that I will make things difficult for you, so you want to start with a romantic marriage. You are dreaming."

"Brother and sister-in-law, you only want to sell your daughter, but you can also sell your son, whether it's marrying into someone else's family or selling him to someone else as a son, either way is a way out. If you want to force Tong Zhijie to Taohua, you are challenging my bottom line, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Gu Taohua pointed at Tong Zhijie's nose and cursed: "Even if all the men in the world were dead, I would not marry you."

I'm so mad at her. He treats her like a cabbage.

Tong Fusheng and Wang's faces turned pale after being scolded. They deliberately stood at the door of Taohua Dessert to mention Gu Taohua's marriage, thinking that Tong Huaqiong would find it difficult to refuse.

Tong Huaqiong not only refused, but also shouted so loudly that half the street could hear her.
