Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 13: Agreement



Chapter 13: Agreement

Shopkeeper Yu refrained from grinning after hearing what Gao Lan Mei asked the mute old beggar.

This gave him the impression that Gao Lan Mei was not confident that the poisonous walnuts would be found.

'This young miss is just playing around.' He thought to himself and he could not wait to penalize her for causing such a scene.

With this situation as well, he was glad that he decided to mix the cheap ones with the high-grade walnuts from the medical pavilion farm.

No one would notice the difference!

For Gao Chu, it didn't make sense why Gao Lan Mei was not showing the paper from the old mute beggar to the others from the crowd.

Would that not makes things easier? They would have a bunch of witnesses.

"Young miss; I think it best to have someone else read the paper as a witness", Gao Chu moved close to Gao Lan Mei and suggested. She would never allow her young miss to be in a disadvantage even though she herself was confused.

Gao Lan Mei just glanced at Gao Chu, who bowed her head when she saw the miss warning gaze.

'It seems that the young miss has her own intention, so I will just shut up.' Gao Chu decided.

"Woman, we do not have all day! I will do what you say, but you will compensate heavily if you are wrong!" Yu wanted to finish things soon.

The faster it would be done, the faster he could also hide the other cheap walnuts.

He already gave the signal to his personal assistant to manipulate the available walnuts in the store.

Even though there really were poisonous ones, how could one find that out when there were millions of pieces of walnut after all?

On the other hand, he was still very experienced with handling medicine, because of that, regardless of what walnut Yu ate, he would be fine!

This young woman, though her background was unknown, should not have offended him. He had the medical pavilion backing him as long as the owner did not find him at fault.

Gao Lan Mei looked at the beggar who currently thought that Gao Lan Mei might have changed her mind. For him, since she was already implicated, it's understandable.

"I want the agreement written on paper with a sworn witness." Gao Lan Mei demanded.

"Fine!" Though surprised, Shopkeeper Yu still agreed. He sneered. Young people this day were impulsive. This young woman would learn her lesson the hard way.

He instructed one of the helpers to write down the agreement. "If not proven guilty, this miss will compensate, five hundred thousand gold coins and she will be my personal servant."

Shopkeeper Yu looked forward to having this young woman as his personal servant. He started having lewd thoughts.

Gao Lan Mei frowned, "If we are correct, the medical pavilion will pay the old beggar five hundred thousand gold coins And I can have any herb that I want whenever I want for free!" She said with a domineering voice.

It was very easy for Gao Lan Mei to just show others the paper to prove that she was not lying. But who would that benefit? On the other hand, who could she trust from this bunch of strangers?

It's a mortal's nature to only do things that benefit them. Was it normal for a mortal to help someone they did not know? Of course not. She was also the same.

It was very easy for anyone to burn the paper then say that she was wrong to curry favor with the Medical Pavilion, so she would not let anything about it.

She did not need to curry favor with anyone. The thing she needed most now were herbs. Tons of them!

So how could she not take advantage of this?

It was pure coincidence that she was going to be benefited helping the mute old beggar.
