Chapter 139: Backup from Mo Bei
So the yogurt was the only reason!
That person suddenly turned to Qin Yuyan, saying with an ice cold tone, "Princess Qin, what did you put in your yogurt?"
"Just milk and some other eatable ingredients..." answered Qin Yuyan impatiently while glaring at him.
That person just ignored her and went on, "We all got a stomachache after eating your yogurt. Is there something wrong with your ingredients..."
"No way!" Qin Yuyan denied it: She had checked all the ingredients on the recipe. They wouldn't do hard to the body...
"Then how do you explain this?" That person kept pushing her.
"How would I know?" Qin Yuyan glared at him, "After it was made, I am the first one to taste it. And I am still all right..."
"But we all had a stomachache after eating your yogurt. As the owner of this store, at least you should give us a reasonable explanation." That person looked at Qin Yuyan indifferently.
"But...there's a possibility...it is not our yogurt..." Qin Yuyan tried to defend herself. If she admitted her yogurt was unhealthy, no one would come buy her yogurt from now on. After all people would never eat something that would do harm to their bodies however delicious it was!
"But the obvious is indisputable and you are still trying to defend yourself? Where are your morals..." That person didn't finish his words. He cast a glance at Qin Yuyan and then turned around and walked slowly towards the shopkeeper. He yelled while walking, "Yogurt belongs to the nobilities. I am only a vulgar and don't have the luck to enjoy it. I still have a few unopened cups. I want to return them..."
"Me too..."
"Me too...Me too..."
All those folks surrounded the yogurt store and shouted to return the yogurt.
"Easy! Easy! One at a time! Take it easy!" Looking at those waving hands, the shopkeeper got grim-faced. This was like from heaven to hell! He was yelling in his heart!
Even those passers-by knew there was something wrong with her yogurt now. Be it those returned ones, or those left there, no one would buy any now. A few hundreds of cups! Totally wasted...
"I got things to do at home. I can't wait. Here is your yogurt! I'm gonna get the coins myself!" The man behind the counter dropped his three cups of yogurt onto the counter and snatched a few coins from the drawer and then elbowed the way out of the crowd!
"I also got things to do at home. And I can't wait..." Then the crowd all shouted and dropped the yogurt on the counter and tried to snatch the coins in the drawer. In an instant, the shopkeeper got pushed aside. And they all vied with one another to stretch their hands into the drawer for the coins.
Along with a rattling sound, incomputable coins fell out of the drawer. Those avaricious civilians immediately jumped onto the counter to grab the coins. The yogurt store, in and out, immediately fell into a mess!
Those civilians swarmed, pushing each other, even those two guards carrying the chair got elbowed to a corner. Qin Yuyan even had no time to respond and directly fell down on the ground. Sharp pains were immediately felt, making her frown.
A bunch of unruly rustics! After she got out of here, she would report it to the yamun and arrest all of them and get them all severely punished!
When the raging Qin Yuyan was about to call the guards, someone suddenly backed up a few steps and treaded on her arm!
"Ouch!" Qin Yuyan screams echoed the clouds, but instantly drowned in the noisy crowd.
Those people were pushing each other beside Qin Yuyan, forwards and backwards, and kicking, stepping on her now and then. Her arms and legs were all hurt. She couldn't get on her feet at all!
Qin Yuyan raised her head with resent and glared at Murong Xue not far away through the crowd. Murong Xue, standing on the other side of the street, was also looking at her, with her lips curled up, with all contempt and distain in her eyes...
Qin Yuyan flew into a great rage. So judging from Murong Xue's casual look, it seemed she had already anticipated all this...Hm? So there was something wrong with the recipe...
Murong Xue snorted. All the procedures of how to make the yogurt had been imprinted in her brain. She had guessed that Lady Du and her daughter would covet her stuff. So she wrote a false recipe and meant to let them steal it away. But it turned out to be Qin Yuyan...
"What did you do to the recipe?" Ouyang Shaochen asked casually while turning to Murong Xue: The moment he heard someone opened a yogurt store, he had known that someone had stolen Murong Xue's yogurt recipe.
"Not much. I just added some special ingredients..." said Murong Xue while sneering: Qingyan folks preferred soft and worm food, while the ingredients she wrote were cold and hard-natured. Putting them into the yogurt would lead to stomach upset...or even have a running stomachache...
It was not a wise choice to steal things from her. Even if someone stole it, that person wouldn't have the luck to use it.
Ouyang Shaochen nodded and flashed his eyes at the plaque hanging above the store, "I guess Qin Yuyan has to close her yogurt store on the opening day!"
"So many people are having a running stomachache because of her. They already show some mercy not to pull down her store..." Murong Xue crowed over.
Qin Yuyan caused the public's anger the first day she opened her yogurt store. What a big joke! Qin Yuyan became famous again in Qingyan City, but on a bad side. See if she had the guts to steal things from Murong Xue next time...
Murong Xue looked at Qin Yuyan who was rolling on the ground, yelling, "Someone! Help! Help..."
Suddenly a wind arouse from nowhere which smashed towards those civilians. Bang! Some of them got blown away. And a deep pit appeared on the hard ground. And the shouting and yelling people all quieted down.
A tall and straight figure fell from the sky, and landed before those people lightly. That man was wearing a golden cloak embroidered with exquisite clouding, with his black hair tied behind his back bundled up with a violet golden cap. He had a pretty face, with only evilness and arrogance in his eyes.
When he saw Qin Yuyan lying on ground, he called, "Sister!"
"My brother, you are finally here!" Qin Yuyan cried with joy, with tears streaming down her face...
