Bai Zehao also peeked over, but he widened his eyes in surprise.
If Bai Ruozhu hadn’t hurriedly pulled him back, he might have yelped in shock.
A man and a woman stood at the end of the alley.
The woman was Liu’s wife, who once quarreled with Bai Ruozhu.
It was really a case of a narrow road meeting one’s enemy.
“Cousin, you must avenge me.
Look at my face, almost scratched up by that old woman from the Bai Family!” Liu’s wife approached the man beside her, showing him her face.
She was clasping his arm, appearing extraordinarily intimate.
“Oh dear, LaiDi, how could that beautiful face be ruined?” The man’s voice was lecherous.
He took advantage of the opportunity to kiss her face.
“Don’t worry, cousin will seek justice for you.
When the news circulates in town, we’ll see if the villagers believe it or not.’
LaiDi was Liu’s wife’s given name.
Her maiden surname was Wang, making her full name Wang LaiDi.
At the moment, Wang LaiDi blushed and giggled in a shy yet coquettish manner and said in a sweet voice, “I knew my cousin would treat me the best.
If the Bai family bullies me again, you must find some men to stir up trouble.
Say they were sent by his legitimate wife to teach her a lesson.”
Bai Zehao was infuriated and ready to confront them, but Bai Ruozhu held him back and shook her head at him.
Bai Ruozhu glanced back again to see Wang LaiDi and her cousin hugging and kissing.
The sight was truly nauseating.
She quickly signaled Bai Zehao, and the two of them discreetly retreated.
“Liu’s wife is shameless to the extreme.
It turns out all those rumors were her doing, and I still thought the Liu Family had learned their lesson.” Once they were out of the alley, Bai Zehao angrily declared.
Bai Ruozhu pulled her brother’s sleeve and whispered, “Brother, let’s not publicize this issue.
I have a clever plan.”
“Not publicize?
Don’t we tell Liu about his wife’s infidelity?” Bai Zehao asked, then laughed at his own question, shaking his head and saying, “If we go tell Liu, he’ll definitely not believe us, and he might end up hating us instead.”
Bai Ruozhu gave her brother a thumbs up, “Brother, you’re really quick on the uptake.”
Bai Zehao scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, saying, “Quick on what?
I almost started a fight just now.”
Bai Ruozhu laughed, “If it wasn’t for my pregnancy, I would have rushed in with you.
We’d each give them a beating, leaving them scrambling for their teeth.
Let them know why flowers are so red!”
Bai Zehao couldn’t help but laugh heartily, “Little sister, you’re getting funnier and funnier.” The word ‘funny’ was something he learned from Bai Ruozhu.
He thought it was fun to be with funny people.
“Brother, let’s not tell anyone about today’s incident.
I have a plan to expose them.” Bai Ruozhu smirked with mischief, and the baby in her belly seemed to follow her mood, dancing excitedly.
The sight amused Bai Ruozhu even more.
Bai Zehao shrank his neck, feeling a chill down his spine.
It felt like his little sister, once so demure, had really changed. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Anyone who offended her would surely face repercussions.
“By the way, do you know anything about Wang LaiDi’s cousin?” Bai Ruozhu asked.
She seemed to have no memory of the man at all, likely because her previous self was not interested in such matters.
“I’ve seen him a couple of times when he came to the village before.
He’s the son of Liu’s wife’s aunt, his name is Cao LeSheng, if I remember correctly.
His family is pretty well-off.
They run a grocery store in town,” Bai Zehao recalled.
“If Wang LaiDi was having an affair with him, why didn’t she marry her cousin?” Bai Ruozhu asked, making a face.
“Who knows?
Perhaps Cao LeSheng’s family didn’t approve of Wang LaiDi due to her family conditions.
Her father-in-law also runs a business in town and is said to be quite well-off,” Bai Zehao shrugged, adding, “I just didn’t expect him to fool around.
I wonder what his in-laws would do if they found out.”
A cold light flashed in Bai Ruozhu’s eyes.
Although she didn’t know this Cao LeSheng and had no direct conflict with him, he had helped Wang LaiDi harm her.
So she wouldn’t let either of them off easily.
If they wanted to blame someone, it could only be Cao LeSheng for letting lust cloud his judgment.
Afterward, they went to Du Family’s Pharmacy.
Du Zhongshu wasn’t there, but Shopkeeper Zhou and his assistant Zhou Fu warmly welcomed them.
Bai Ruozhu asked about the sales of toothpaste, and everything was as she expected.
“Zhou Fu, you must be well acquainted with everyone in town, right?” Bai Ruozhu turned to Zhou Fu, who was waiting on the side, and asked.
Zhou Fu quickly nodded, “In response to Madam Bai, I grew up in Anyuan Town.
I am aware of everything big and small happening here.”
Bai Ruozhu looked pleased, “I have a plan, called word-of-mouth marketing, and I need your help.”
Both the shopkeeper and Zhou Fu looked amazed.
What did ‘word-of-mouth’ and ‘marketing’ mean?
They had never heard of such concepts.
Bai Ruozhu knew they would be confused and continued explained with a smile, “For example, if I eat wontons at a stall and then tell my friends how good they are, they’ll become curious and want to try them too.
Little by little, the reputation spreads, and the stall’s business naturally improves.”
“You mean if our loyal customers use the toothpaste and then recommend it to their friends?” The shopkeeper was a bit unclear.
Hadn’t Mrs.
Bai already mentioned that?
Why bring it up again?
“This time, the approach is a little different.” Bai Ruozhu smirked, “Zhou Fu, find a few women in town who are good at gossiping, who love wandering around chatting with people, especially those who love to gossip about people’s private affairs.
We can tell them that they’ve won a lucky draw and we’re giving them a free tube of toothpaste.”
Zhou Fu looked confused, “Why would we give it to them?”
Recently influenced by Bai Ruozhu, Bai Zehao had learned to think more critically.
“You want them to use it and find it good, then spontaneously to promote it.
Since they love to gossip, they surely won’t be able to resist the urge to spread the word.”
Bai Ruozhu nodded in satisfaction, “And after receiving a free tube of toothpaste, they’d surely show it off to others.”
“But would others believe what they say?
Would it really work?” Zhou Fu was still sceptical.
“When their teeth show improvement, others will naturally see the results.” Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.
The shopkeeper finally understood.
Slapping his thigh in revelation, he exclaimed excitedly, “Madam Bai, what a brilliant idea!
Let’s implement it right away.”
“Send a tube to the grocery store run by the Cao Family on the west side of the city.
Remember, don’t let anyone know about our cooperation, and don’t even mention knowing me.” Bai Ruozhu became serious.
Shopkeeper Zhou and Zhou Fu, who rarely saw her such serious, dared not to take this lightly and quickly assured her they wouldn’t leak a word.
Bai Ruozhu and her brother then bought a few things and took an ox cart back to their village.
“Little sister, is this ‘marketing’ idea part of your plan to expose those two?” After pondering the whole journey, Bai Zehao finally couldn’t resist asking.
Bai Ruozhu winked at him and said, “You guess!”
