Scum Man Cannot Redeem Himself - chapter 67

Ning Qing didn’t expect her dress to fail her so much, that he recognized her at a glance. Next time, she would definitely put on a beard, so she might look more masculine.

“Maybe he was not blind.”

No, the guard was blinded by her silver.

Ning Qing smiled embarrassingly at Yang Junhan.

Should she offer to pay and apologize and resolve the minor misunderstandings between the two? Would that make her look desperate and flattering? But didn’t she just say flattering words right now?

Who let him block her road. She just wanted to buy some flowers. She was already miserable, and would be worse if she had to apologize!

She didn’t want to do it. But then if she wanted to resolve the misunderstanding, she had to lower her noble head and give up her worthless self-esteem. She had prepared herself psychologically, and said straightforward, “Flower boss, I’m here to buy flowers from you.”

“No,” Yang Junhan refused. He had continued to buy land for planting flowers all these years. How could he sell those flowers. The demand for his goods in the past two years had increased. The development momentum of an industry under his name was not enough, and he intended to cut a part of the supply of this industry and supply it to the cooperative firms in Sucheng.

To put it bluntly, the flowers in his hands were not much and there would not be an increase in the number of cooperative firms unless the piece of land he was talking about could be negotiated as soon as possible and he may be able to plant flower seedlings before spring.

But now the price was too high, and the possibility of cooperation was not high. In addition, it was close to spring, even if he negotiated with sellers, he had to consult with farmers. In this way, they could miss the spring sowing. So the matter of changing into other flowers was quite troublesome.

Ning Qing didn’t expect that her idea would be rejected and was disappointed. After all, this was her last hope. If she didn’t succeed, all her plans would be useless.

There were not many silver coins in her hand. It was impossible for her to grow flowers. She had no land and no qualification to be a flower farmer in the village.

“Flower boss, the previous incident is my fault, and I will like to compensate you,” Ning Qing bowed her head to apologise.

In the rectangular table, Yang Junhan saw the sincerity in her small face. It was not common for a woman to go out and talk about business. He recalled she had said that there was no man in her house. Later, he saw her dressed as a woman, indicating that she was a married woman.

(In Ancient China unmarried girls wear their hair down or have simple hairstyles. Married women have besides hair in a bun)

He found the wrong person for the first time, and later gave an explanation, saying that the Fang family was originally the one on the edge of the Qingshui River. When the house that had been vacant for many years was bought by someone, it caused a misunderstanding.

She was married, but there was no man in the house. She moved to Qingshui River recently, and she came out to talk about business alone.

If her man was dead, she could be a widow. But widows were generally divided into two types, some would stay in the husband’s house to raise young children, serving the in-laws till they grow old. They would not marry for life. The others return to their maternal house before marrying into a new husband’s household.

Obviously she was neither of them.

Moreover she was very young. At most, she would be twenty. If she was married at the normal age of sixteen or seventeen, she would have been married for at least three or four years. Didn’t women wear a small white flower to show her filial piety if her husband died? But she didn’t.

In summary, this woman was unlikely to be a widow.

Well, not a widow, so another possibility was being divorced by her husband or she asked for the separation from her husband’s family. With the consideration of her hot personality it was probably the former. Since she was divorced, she should return to her maternal family. Some people do not return to their maternal families after divorce and buy a house far away. Either they were not tolerated by their maternal family, or they were self-conscious and wanted to live independently.

A woman who was divorced by her husband could have committed one out of seven reasons. She was not so miserable though since she bought and saved Ya’er. She was young and certainly did not look like she had a serious disease (one of the seven reasons). The reason had to be something else.

Thinking of this, Yang Junhan had no sympathy for the woman in front of him.

(Seven reasons for marriage: 1. lacks filial piety towards her parents-in-law. 2.fails to bear a son, 3. vulgar or lewd/adulterous 4. jealous (This includes objecting to her husband taking an additional wife or concubine. 5. serious disease 6. gossipy, 7.commits theft.)

“You’re right, we had just some misunderstandings. You don’t need to apologise. Besides, there is nothing wrong, I did not suffer.”

It could be understood as not accepting her apology. He had to see whether the other side understood it.

Ning Qing pondered the meaning of the words, and probably guessed that the flower boss did not accept her apology.

The two prostitutes were brought to the door by an old man. The old man was dressed flamboyant and his posture was bright as a flower.

“You ordered our new girls, this young master the flower boss is the gold master I never dared to neglect. Today the flower boss could drink more and enjoy himself.”
