Kissed and Seduced By the Most Rough Man in the Village-Chapter 526: One Shouldn’t Be Greedy

Although Grandpa Zhang was somewhat curious about why Xiaoxiao and Yexun’s matter was being investigated by the National Security Office, he knew he couldn’t interfere or ask about it.

"Grandpa Zhang, let’s leave it at that for now. Yexun and I will go back to the guesthouse. The disciplinary office people ransacked our things earlier, so we need to go back and sort everything out," Su Xiaoxiao said.

Even though Grandpa Zhang was firm in his attitude, she still wanted to wait for the specific punishment of Peng Huijing to be decided before having any further contact with the Zhang family.

Grandpa Zhang understood Su Xiaoxiao’s frustration and could empathize with her feelings. But as soon as he thought of his troublesome daughter-in-law, his discomfort deepened.

"Alright, I’ll take you both to the guesthouse first, and then I’ll go back," Grandpa Zhang said.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t refuse, and nodded in agreement.

After dropping them off at the guesthouse, Grandpa Zhang immediately had the guard drive him to his son’s army base.

His son had brought back such a wife, and while he himself managed to avoid trouble, hiding out in the army every day, Grandpa Zhang had to hurry to clarify the situation with Zhang Zhiyuan and have him divorce her.

Otherwise, some muddle-headed people might still try to help Peng Huijing, thinking that since she was the Zhang family’s daughter-in-law, they could use their connections to cover for her.

Su Xiaoxiao and Jiang Yexun were unaware of Grandpa Zhang’s plans. The two of them returned to the guesthouse, where the receptionist immediately led them to their new room.

"The previous room was damaged, so I’ve arranged a new one for you. I’ve also moved your things inside, you can check to see if anything’s missing or extra," the receptionist said, doing her job professionally.

However, instead of leaving after showing them to the door, she glanced around to make sure no one was around, then quickly stepped inside and locked the door behind her.

"Are you alright? What happened today? How did they suddenly come up with this false accusation against you?" the receptionist asked worriedly.

Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but laugh, feeling helpless. "Don’t worry, this has nothing to do with our business. It’s because we got into a bit of a dispute with someone else earlier, and when they couldn’t find any fault with us, they decided to frame us, using the disciplinary office to cause trouble."

The receptionist smiled awkwardly, "I wasn’t worried about your business being exposed, I just didn’t want you to get into trouble. If something happens to you, our business can’t continue."

After all, she made two to three hundred every month, which was more than half of her yearly salary.

If the business stopped, it would be worse than death for her.

"Now that we’re back, you can relax," Su Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

The receptionist quickly nodded and then cautiously asked, "So, about the Whitening Pill and the Moisture Pill, could I get a little more each month?"

Right now, the amount she had was enough for her regular customers, but for new customers, she didn’t have any to give. She could only push the products onto the black market. This wasn’t just losing money, it was a waste.

However, Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. "The amount you have now is already enough."

"But I have new customers, and I can only sell through the black market. Since you have so much product on the black market, why not give me a little more? I’ll definitely sell it all," the receptionist promised.

Su Xiaoxiao remained firm, "The black market has its own channels. If they sell too much and something goes wrong, there’s always someone ready to take the blame or close up shop early if they catch wind of trouble. But you, you’re selling directly to people around you, and if you’re not careful, it’s easy to get caught.

You’re already making a lot each month, so slow down for now. Let’s see how things develop. Remember, ’Keep the green mountains, and you won’t fear a lack of firewood,’ right?"

The receptionist still felt somewhat dissatisfied, but since Su Xiaoxiao had said so, she didn’t dare to refuse.
