Chapter 1004: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1004: Deng Shi
The Jiang family became a mess. Jiang Ren disappeared, and the third son, Jiang Li, fearing that the creditors would come after him, announced that he had severed ties with the Jiang family.
The two elderly Jiangs aged rapidly, and not long after, Jiang's mother fell seriously ill and passed away.
Finally, Jiang Yi stepped forward and took over the entire Jiang family.
In just a short four months, he not only revived the Jiang family but also showed signs of further progress.
When Jiang Yi took over, he didn't have much money, but the good thing was that he was a righteous person who usually kept a low profile. Many people were willing to lend him money.
Moreover, at that time, everyone knew that Jiang Yi's wife, Deng Shi, had a cousin named Chang Shi, who was the wife of a Grand Minister of Justice.
Based on this alone, many people were willing to take a chance on Jiang Yi.
Under Jiang Yi's management, the Jiang family turned the tide, and the once missing Jiang Ren suddenly returned, trying to take back the Jiang family. Jiang Li also emerged, claiming that he was only a bastard and couldn't compare to his noble status.
This time, not only the Jiang family members but even the people of Jiangyuan County couldn't bear to watch.
Jiang Yi was no longer willing to be passive and non-competitive. He joined forces with Deng Shi to drive both of them out.
The eldest and third branches of the family now had to live in a small house outside the city, a far cry from their previous life.
Now, the Jiang family consisted of Jiang Yi, Deng Shi, and their family. It seemed that Jixiang Liquor Shop had also hired a new shopkeeper.
Shu Yu walked into the shop, wanting to buy the wine she had purchased before. However, seeing the completely renovated interior, she didn't know where to look.
She had to walk towards the counter and said, "Shopkeeper, I..."
"Miss Lu Xiangjun?" A woman behind the counter raised her head.
Shu Yu was also taken aback. "Madam Jiang, you... I thought this shop had hired a new shopkeeper."
Deng Shi quickly came out from behind the counter and smiled, inviting Shu Yu inside. "Indeed, we have hired a new shopkeeper. However, he's a clever one. My husband has gone on a business trip these past few days and took him along. That's why I came to watch over the shop. Come, Lu Xiangjun, please sit down. I'll have someone bring tea."
Shu Yu quickly stopped her. "No need, Madam Jiang. My younger sister is waiting for me outside. I just came to buy two jugs of wine, the same kind I bought last time."
Upon hearing this, Deng Shi didn't continue and pointed to a counter on the left. "I remember, let me fetch them for you."
She had a good memory and quickly brought out two jugs of wine.
Just as Shu Yu was about to pay and leave, she saw a staggering figure approaching.
As soon as the person reached the doorway, they tripped over the threshold and fell to the ground.
Shu Yu was startled and instinctively protected the wine jugs as she took two steps back.
Deng Shi exclaimed, "Are you alright, sir?" She turned her head and called out to the store's assistants, "Xiao Shu, the two of you, come and help."
Two assistants rushed over and helped the person to their feet—one on the left and one on the right.
The person kept their head down and waved their hand. "I'm fine, I'm fine, shopkeeper, give me... give me two jugs of wine, the strongest ones. *hiccup*"
Deng Shi frowned. "You're already drunk, and you still want to buy more wine?"
"I'm not drunk, I can still drink, I can drink! Give me the wine, quickly. Otherwise, I'll... I'll tear down this shabby house of yours, hehe, there's nothing great about it, nothing at all!"
After saying that, the person waved their hand forcefully. "Hurry up and bring it to me!"
As the person made this move and raised their head, Shu Yu finally saw their face and realized that they seemed... somewhat familiar.
