“Who brought this bastard here, spewing filth from his mouth?” The women working in the tofu shop, including Mrs. Wen, all came over upon hearing the tantrum. None of them were empty-handed. Rolling pins, shovels, hoes, there was even a fierce one holding a shiny kitchen knife.

“Where did this runt come from, daring to make a scene at our doorstep? Do you think this is some sort of dump? Seems like we’ll need to show you some color, so you’d understand the pecking order here!”

Mrs. Wen shouted: “Go, call for help at the door, find a few men with strong physique, and tie this guy up. Whoever he belongs to, fetch them here. We need to ask who didn’t shut their door and let their dog out to bark randomly.” Upon hearing her, Zhuang Qingsui ran out to call for help.

Tong Fei’ legs trembled in fright.

He grew up in this village and knew that the villagers were very protective of their own and did not welcome outsiders. If anyone responded to Zhuang Qingsui’s calls for help and he ended up getting beaten up, no one would blame the villagers. Instead, they might criticize him for causing trouble without provocation.

Even if the pavilion chief intervened, he would probably just reprimand a few words, make someone apologize, and offer him some compensation. However, that would not alleviate the pain from his physical injuries.

Tong Fei saw what was happening clearly and understood the situation. Seeing the direction things were heading, he stopped saying anything, turned around, quickly vanished.

“He truly got away with it, that bastard.” Mrs. Wen snorted coldly, putting down her rolling pin and saying to Zhuang Qingning: “It’s not that I’m criticizing you, but with a bastard like this, if he dares to act, you should kick him out. What’s there to be afraid of? You are just too nice!”

Zhuang Qingning chuckled helplessly and finally loosened her clenched fists.

She was not weak and didn’t intend to let Tong Fei beat her up. She had already clenched her fists, which were as large as sandbags, waiting for Tong Fei to approach so she could give him a taste of her sandbag-sized fist powered by her strength and agility.

But before Tong Fei could get close, Zhuang Mingliang stepped forward to block him, followed by Mrs. Wen and others standing up for her.

She did want to fight back, but it was never her turn to take action…

Zhuang Qingning felt somewhat aggrieved, but she couldn’t express it.

Nevertheless, she managed to squeeze out a smile, “Don’t worry, aunt, I know what to do in the future…”

While she was speaking, Zhuang Qingning sensed a slight movement in the air behind her.

Glancing sideways, she saw a small stone the size of a baby’s fist flying toward her.

Without thinking, she knew it must be Tong Fei. He felt humiliated and carried a grudge. But since he was no match for her, he decided to play dirty, hoping to make her suffer.

What a pity…

Zhuang Qingning’s eyes were calm as still water. With a skillful sidestep, she extended her hand, fluidly caught the stone and in the blink of an eye was at the doorway. She threw the stone, with all her strength, at Tong Fei who was hiding and sneaking around by the wall.

Tong Fei was originally hoping to see Zhuang Qingning cry out in pain, hoping to laugh at her misfortune. When he saw that Zhuang Qingning was unharmed and had a grim look on her face, he got a scare and turned to run.

But he had barely taken two steps when he felt a heavy blow on his head. Seeing stars, he fell to the ground.

He finally got up from the ground, only to feel a pain in the back of his head as if he had been pricked with a needle. There were wave-like spurts of warmth. He touched it and saw his hand covered in blood…

He was bleeding!

Tong Fei was taken aback. The blood was flowing down from his head, down his cheeks, and to his chin.

His nostrils were filled with the strong smell of blood, the throbbing pain in his head was unceasing. Tong Fei was seriously frightened. He stopped engaging with Zhuang Qingning and ran to find a doctor while clutching his head.

Along the way, he went about screaming in pain.

Watching Tong Fei running away, Zhuang Mingliang felt extremely satisfied. He spat on the ground, “Serves him right!”

Then, he turned to Zhuang Qingning: “Big Sister Ning, your aim was so accurate. From that distance, if it were me, I doubt I would’ve hit him.”

“I merely threw it casually. I guess Lady Luck was watching and did not tolerate such a miscreant running amok here,” Zhuang Qingning chuckled, sticking out her tongue.

“Indeed, what goes around, comes around.”

Zhuang Mingliang also started laughing.

This commotion eventually ended with Tong Fei bleeding from his head and fleeing in fear.

Afterwards, everyone returned to their own business without dwelling on the incident.

Dong Dazhu and Bai San’s bullock carts also arrived at Mrs. Wen’s tofu shop one after another, loading all the things that were to be transported onto their carts.

Zhuang Qingning didn’t share much about Tong Fei’s incident with Dong Dazhu. Instead, she asked Zhuang Mingliang to prepare some extra tofu skin to load onto Bai San’s bullock cart.

When they arrived in town, Zhuang Qingning quickly prepared the regular order for Ruyi Pavilion, along with the tofu skin, and went to find Chai Zhengzhen.

“Manager Zhuang.” Upon seeing Zhuang Qingning, Chai Zhengzhen was overjoyed, especially when he saw her bringing over the goods, he was even more thrilled: “Why the trouble of delivering them personally, Manager Zhuang? I was just about to send my men to transport them.”

“I figured Manager Chai must be very busy these days. Moreover, I had some matters to discuss with you, so I decided to bring things over on the way.” Zhuang Qingning smiled, “How’s Ruyi Pavilion’s business in recent days?” “All thanks to you, Manager Zhuang!” Chai Zhengzhen’s face couldn’t help but light up with joy at the mention of this, “We’ve been doing really well these past few days, all thanks to the idea given by Manager Zhuang. May I invite you to a meal at Ruyi Pavilion when you have the time?”

“You mentioned earlier that Manager Zhuang had something to discuss with me. What matter is it? If there’s anything I can help with, I would be most willing to oblige!”

Previously, he went to the tofu shop to secure more stock, seeking to rake in more business while Fushun Tower was facing issues. He didn’t expect Zhuang Qingning to suggest providing a home delivery service at cost price to capture business and supply ingredients needed by Ruyi Pavilion, which resulted in the boom in Ruyi Pavilion’s business these days.

The gratefulness Chai Zhengzhen felt at heart reflected in his words.

“Actually, there’s no need for Manager Chai to go out of his way to do anything. I just made some new tofu skin at the tofu shop and thought to send some over to see if Ruyi Pavilion can use it.” Zhuang Qingning laughed, “And also, I thought to give Manager Chai a few suggestions.”

“One of them is regarding the home delivery at cost price. Although it brings a lot of customers initially, it would become insipid after a while and not enough to attract customers. Manager Chai can consider introducing a special discounted dish every day, sold at cost price, and hang the price and name of the dish on the signboard outside the door. You can even set up a table and display the dish. Customers walking by can see clearly and know that Ruyi Pavilion’s dishes are reasonably priced and the portions are large.”
