Reborn as Tycoon's Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 255 Let’s wait and see (the first update)

Manager Qian listened to Su Xiaofeng’s words and thought about Dong Wei’s assessment of her, saying she was quite capable, now it seemed that Dong Wei’s assessment was a bit low. This wasn’t just being somewhat capable, but quite a bit more.

His tone was no longer as warm as before, just snorting coldly, "So, Manager Su isn’t planning to give Manager Qian this face."

"I didn’t say I wasn’t giving this face, but as you can see, I’m tied up here in the factory, and I can’t attend to the market either. Moreover, it’s Zhao Xi who’s in charge over there. If you want to get in, it’s most appropriate to talk to him." The implication was clear: Zhao Xi was fully responsible for the market affairs, and seeking her out was pointless.

"This is just a matter of saying a word, Manager Su is making it sound so complicated. After all, we are in the same county. Perhaps in the future we can’t avoid seeing each other often, Manager Su won’t refuse to give even this small amount of face, right?"

In the same county, with only so many factories, they would inevitably have to deal with each other frequently, a case of not seeing eye to eye at one moment and coming face to face the next. If Su Xiaofeng, this woman, wasn’t even willing to give this little bit of face, then there would be no point in interacting in the future.

Xiaofeng laughed, "Hearing Manager Qian’s words, someone who didn’t know better might think we have a great deal of affection between us. I’m not saying I won’t allow Manager Qian’s goods in, it’s just that the market has its own rules. If everyone came to me, and with just one word from me could get in, what use would there be for the market’s rules?"

"I thought Manager Su was a far-sighted and capable person, but now it seems I overestimated you," Manager Qian, seeing that Su Xiaofeng didn’t give him the slightest bit of face, became angry.

"You did indeed overestimate me, I’m just an ordinary person." Xiaofeng didn’t care whether the other party was angry: "Does Manager Qian have anything else? If not, I just so happen to have some matters to attend to and won’t keep you any longer."

An acquaintance trying to curry favor out of the blue, of course it was hardly possible.

Manager Qian knew she was trying to send him away. Thinking about his purpose for this visit, he naturally couldn’t just leave so easily: "Manager Su, let’s speak frankly. My visit this time is not only to try to get my products into the market but also to put in a good word for Old Dong." freewёbnoνel.com

Su Xiaofeng, listening to his words, her eyes gave a little turn, it really was Dong Wei who sent him: "Dong Wei?"

"That’s right. I have some relations with Old Dong, and I heard that you took over his shares in the market. In fact, those shares don’t mean much to Old Dong. After all, he has many big businesses; without the market shares, he still has other properties. I just heard, only heard, that Manager Su didn’t take down the market by herself, it was given to you by someone behind the scenes."

He really wanted to probe the person behind her. How does the saying go, without a purpose, one does not visit a temple. Now it seems that’s indeed the case.

"So, Manager Qian is interested in the person behind me? Let me put it this way, this market was a gift from my man to me. Do you have any more questions?" Dong Wei was probably guessing if there was some big shot behind her, that’s why, wanting to take revenge but not daring to, he sent Manager Qian to test the waters.

"I heard Manager Su’s man is a doctor; I truly didn’t expect a doctor to be so generous. It’s quite surprising." Since Su Xiaofeng herself brought it up, Manager Qian naturally wanted to take the opportunity to learn more: "Isn’t your man a local?"

"Manager Qian seems quite interested in my man?" Xiaofeng wasn’t going to answer whatever he asked: "Manager Qian, you already know what you wanted to. As for the rest, I’m afraid your reach isn’t that long. Regarding Dong Wei’s shares, he has already sold them to me, so of course they are mine. If he wants them back, then I’m sorry, I’m not thinking of selling for now."

Listening to her somewhat arrogant words, Manager Qian became so angry his nostrils flared, no longer interested in staying: "So it’s Su Xiaofeng, is it? You’ll have to see just how strong your backer is. We’ll wait and see."

If a woman doesn’t have a strong backer, how long can she hold out?

Manager Qian strode out, colliding with Wu Ershun not far from the door.

Manager Qian was already in a bad mood, and after being bumped like this, he felt even worse: "Can’t you watch where you’re going? Can’t you see such a big living person standing right here?"

This Su Xiaofeng doesn’t watch where she’s going, and the employees she brings out are just as blind.

Wu Ershun, originally intending to simply apologize, became irritated upon hearing the other side start cursing: "Oh my, I’m so sorry, I was urgently looking for our Manager Su, and I really didn’t see such an important personage as you."

Manager Qian, looking at Ershun, didn’t cause him trouble, but turned to Su Xiaofeng: "Manager Su, your worker bumped into me, shouldn’t you give me an explanation?"

"Manager Qian, what kind of explanation would you like?" An apology?

"Naturally, an apology." Manager Qian straightened his clothes to look more imposing: "Your worker is rude and bumped into me, shouldn’t he apologize?"

Xiaofeng frowned deeply: "Apologize? To whom? To him?"

Wu Ershun, listening to the other party’s words, also had a displeased expression. It was clear that it was the other party who bumped into him. He saw the other party coming and did try to move out of the way, but for some reason, the other person still collided with him.

He hadn’t thought much at the time and just collided with him.

Now, to ask him for an apology, was that possible?

"As a worker, seeing a guest not watching where he’s going and brazenly bumping into someone, shouldn’t an apology be in order, or is this the way your Lihua Factory treats its guests?" Su Xiaofeng was not one for sentiment, so one couldn’t blame her lack of it.

"It was clearly you who bumped into me." With Ershun’s hot temper, there was no way he would let the other party spout nonsense: "You saw me coming and still bumped into me, what were you intending?"

"General Manager Su, you need to give an explanation." Of course, Manager Qian couldn’t make a fuss with the other party, firstly because the other party was just a worker, and with his status, there was no need for a dispute. He believed that Su Xiaofeng would understand the propriety and know what to do.

Xiaofeng stepped forward and stood in front of Ershun: "Ershun, are you okay? Did the other party not hurt you anywhere?"

Normally, in such a situation, if Manager Qian wanted to save face and have a worker apologize to him, it wasn’t out of the question, since it was a matter of minor concern and everyone would save face.

Wu Ershun looked at Su Xiaofeng, momentarily unsure of what she intended to do.

Manager Qian, hearing what Su Xiaofeng said, could hardly believe it.

This Su Xiaofeng was really something, she had just given her a way out, and she stepped on his face instead, snorting coldly, "Su Xiaofeng, you really are something. I, Qian someone, will remember you. Just bear in mind that you are a woman who will need to run a factory and ask others for help in many things. You’d better not come to me for any favors, or we’ll see what happens."

Ignorant, not knowing what’s what, what business does such a woman have running a factory? Would be better off at home taking care of her husband and educating her children.

Wu Ershun thought Xiaofeng would have him apologize, yet she didn’t help the other party but instead asked him an irrelevant question.

It was only later that he realized Su Xiaofeng’s latter half of the sentence was clearly telling the other party that it was they who had bumped into him, hence why she asked if he was okay.

"Sister-in-law, actually, if you want me to apologize to him, I could." Now, as her worker, he would, of course, follow sister-in-law’s words.

"This has nothing to do with you; he hit a wall with me and wanted to find a way to save face. But sometimes I’m just like that—if I don’t want to deal with someone, I won’t deal with them." The other party was Dong Wei’s person, and if she made amends with him, it would imply making amends with Dong Wei as well.

Even if she were to make peace, it would have to be Dong Wei who came forward. It was impossible for him to send someone else to make peace.

Of course, the conflict between her and Dong Wei was beyond reconciliation and there was no need for it either.

"Looking at how shifty he was, you can tell he’s no good person." Su Xiaofeng didn’t take the other party seriously, and Wu Ershun, naturally, didn’t either. He handed a paper to Su Xiaofeng: "This is a phone number my brother gave me, saying that he took a big order for you and for you to contact the other party yourself. He said it was to thank you for that radish dish you made last time."

Su Xiaofeng hadn’t expected him to remember that: "You told him I made it?"

"Of course, I had to tell him. He said after he gets better, he wants you to make him another jar because he really liked the flavor." After giving the phone number to her, Wu Ershun headed towards the workshop: "Don’t overthink it, my brother just wants to repay the kindness, nothing more."

Sister-in-law’s husband’s family were benefactors to his older brother, and sister-in-law had made food for his brother before—his older brother was definitely not someone who would forget kindness. He would surely repay the favor bit by bit.

Xiaofeng, of course, didn’t think the other party was interested in her; she guessed that since Ye Cheng wasn’t around to repay, he just wanted to give her a hand.

Viewing it this way, this Wu Yifan was indeed someone who recognized and repaid kindness, even remembering such a small favor of her cooking for him.

Xiaofeng looked at the phone number in her hand, which appeared to be from Haicheng. Could it be an order from Haicheng?

Should she make a call now to ask?

After weighing her options, Xiaofeng decided to try making a call to see what the situation was.

"Hello, I am Su Xiaofeng from Lihua Factory of Xijiang County..."
