Chapter 675 Enemies meet on a narrow road!
Chu Chu thought that since her master and mistress had intended to prepare a banquet for her, she couldn't just leave without giving anything in return. Fortunately, she had brought quite a few things with her when she came from Jiangnan.
Once Chu Chu's status was settled, she went with her maid to the villa outside the city to bring all her belongings to the villa.
This villa belongs to the prince; everyone in the entire Yanzhou city knows this, except for the lady.
Unexpectedly, on the way back, he ran into Zhang Ruilan again.
"Oh, isn't this Miss Chu? What's with all this luggage? Which young master are you going to seek refuge with?"
These words are so harsh, as if Chu Chu were a prostitute who sleeps with anyone, which is simply infuriating and shameful!
Chu Chu ignored her. She had originally planned to choose a set of jade jewelry here because her teacher's wife liked jade. But she never expected to encounter something like this here.
Chu Chu merely glanced at her casually, completely ignoring her.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Ruilan was unaware that she had encountered a tough opponent and continued to provoke, "Why are you afraid to speak? Are you feeling guilty? Humph! I told you, someone from your background should recognize her place and not think she can seduce just anyone."
That's a really harsh thing to say.
Chu Chu could endure it, but her maid could not.
"Miss, do you even know how to speak properly? If you don't, I wouldn't mind teaching you what manners are on behalf of your parents! Although your Zhang family may not be considered a prestigious family, you are still related to the Fu family, right? Don't you even know this basic etiquette?"
Zhang Ruilan was almost driven mad by her words!
What is basic etiquette? So, despite her status as a young lady of the Zhang family, she's not as noble as a mere orphan?
"Who do you think you are? Get out of my way! I'm talking about this bitch. What are you doing getting involved? Oh, I didn't expect this bitch to have such a loyal servant by her side. What? A lowly maid dares to challenge me?"
As she spoke, Zhang Ruilan gave a signal, and several maids beside her stepped forward, looking at Chu Chu and her servant with disdain.
The maid sneered; she really didn't take these few people seriously.
"Give this arrogant brat a good lesson."
Seeing that things were going badly, the shopkeeper immediately came out from the back and tried to appease both sides, saying, "Ladies, please calm down and don't be anxious. Miss, we have some fine jade jewelry on the second floor. Would you like to go upstairs first?"
Chu Chu glanced at him and knew that this boss was also a shrewd businessman.
She nodded to him; after all, she was new here and didn't want to cause herself any trouble.
Chu Chu had just turned around and taken two steps forward when she heard several cries of pain behind her.
It turned out that Zhang Ruilan, seeing that she was about to leave, was not about to let her go so easily. Instead, she directly ordered her maid to attack the two of them from the hands.
What a pity, who is Chu Chu?
Who was she with?
How could they possibly control such lowly maids?
So, unsurprisingly, both maids had their arms ripped off by Chu Chu's maid, and now they were in so much pain that they collapsed to the ground, covered in sweat, and crying out in agony.
The shopkeeper witnessed this scene and was naturally quite frightened.
Although this Miss Zhang is not from a prestigious family, the problem is that the Zhang family is located in Yanzhou City, and they are not people like them who do business.
In business, the key is to make money through harmony.
Now that things have turned out this way, which side is he going to help?
The maid didn't seem to care. After all, their young lady was no longer the same as before; she was no longer an orphan. Besides, their young lady's methods were far beyond what this Miss Zhang had ever witnessed.
Zhang Ruilan was indeed terrified; her face turned pale with fright. She pointed at Chu Chu, trembling uncontrollably, whether from anger or fear, it was hard to tell.
"Fine, fine, Chu Chu! Just you wait, see how I deal with you."
Chu Chu frowned. She wasn't afraid of trouble, but the problem was that she had only been in Yanzhou for a few days and really didn't want to cause trouble for her master.
Her master had finally accepted her as his disciple, so naturally she couldn't let him feel that accepting her was like giving him a troublesome person.
“Miss Zhang, there are so many people watching. You started by using foul language. Even if this matter goes to the authorities, you are the one who is in the wrong. What? Does Miss Zhang really think that pointing your finger at someone and cursing them as a slut is a very polite thing to do?”
Zhang Ruilan was so angry at her words that she almost fainted.
She did swear, but why did this orphan girl have the audacity to go against me?
Although he was filled with hatred, he didn't dare to take a single step closer to her.
She had truly witnessed the skills of that maid; she was ruthless!
Even their family's guards might not have such skills.
Zhang Ruilan hadn't decided whether to run away first or call in the guards outside. At this point, the innkeeper naturally couldn't let them continue making a scene.
Zhang Ruilan wasn't stupid; a lot of people had already gathered around her, pointing and whispering.
It was clearly her people who were beaten, but now it seems like her people deserved it.
"Fine! Chu Chu, you win. Let's see how long you can stay smug."
The shopkeeper bowed repeatedly, "Miss Zhang, since things are as they are, let's just leave it at that. You should go back to your residence first. Our shop still needs to do business."
Unexpectedly, Zhang Ruilan, emboldened by who-knows-where, slapped the shopkeeper across the face!
Snapped!
This sound stunned everyone present.
Even the shopkeeper stared at Zhang Ruilan in disbelief. Had he said something wrong? Why did she slap him like that?
A young lady nearby couldn't stand it any longer. She shook her head and scoffed, "How arrogant! First, he spoke ill of someone for no reason, and then he tried to sneak up on this young lady from behind when she wasn't looking. Humph! His sneak attack failed, and he got hurt instead. Now he's so angry and embarrassed that he's taking it out on the shopkeeper. He's utterly disgraced the women of Yanzhou!"
That was an incredibly vicious insult!
No matter how angry Zhang Ruilan was, there was nothing she could do about it. Putting everything else aside, just the way the person dressed was enough to tell that they were someone she couldn't afford to offend.
