The Peasant Gourment Chef - Chapter 40

In the evening, when Zhang Tieshan came home, it was already dark. He thought his mother had rested, but she was sitting in the main room with her eyes fixed on him.

“Mother, why don’t you rest so late?”

“It’s so late? You know it’s too late! You’ve been running to help others every day, and you’ve been so busy to forget it.”

Hearing his mother’s tone, Zhang Tieshan roughly guessed that his mother knew, but if he knew, he would know. Anyway, sooner or later, he would marry her, and he couldn’t hide it from his mother.

Zhang Tieshan sat down at the table, looked at Zhang Lin, “Mother, if you have anything to say, just say it.”

Zhang Lin looked at Zhang Tieshan with hatred, “I said Tieshan, I heard that you go to town every day to help that woman, is this true?”

Zhang Tieshan nodded without hesitation, “Yes, it’s true!”

Zhang Lin slammed the table angrily, “What are you trying to do! Do you know that you have divorced that woman! What do you mean now, do you want to marry that woman again! You forgot that woman? What a woman has done!”

Zhang Tieshan listened to his mother quietly before saying, “Mother, she is not the same as before. It can be said that she has completely changed. She is very good now. My son likes her very much and wants to marry her back.”

Zhang Linshi’s eyes went dark, he almost sighed, and after a long while, he recovered and pointed at Zhang Tieshan with trembling fingers, “You…you are crazy. You send my grandson to that woman and take me with you. Hold it up, you still want to marry her now! You don’t even remember how she treated your mother, your brother, and your son! You were deceived by her and don’t even care about your mother and brother, right? Tieshan “Why are you so confused?”

Zhang Tieshan frowned slightly and sighed in his heart. He couldn’t tell others that she was no longer the original Li Hehua, and he could only convince his mother that she had completely changed.

“Mother, trust me, she is different now, and she will treat you well in the future.”

Zhang Lin patted the table again, “I think you are fascinated by that woman! What’s wrong with that woman? I tell you, I won’t agree anyway! You said you don’t want to marry Wu Meizi, well, then Forget it, mother will find it for you, but Li Hehua is absolutely impossible, if she wants to enter my Zhang’s door again, she has to step over me!”

Zhang Tieshan pinched his eyebrows. Now that he wants to marry, she may not be able to marry.

“Mother! If I want to marry, I can only marry her. I hope you can bless me. If I don’t bless me, I will still marry her.”

Zhang Lin was so angry that he fell to his back and pointed at Zhang Tieshan, speechless.

“Also, mother, don’t help me find women in the future. I won’t agree. If you don’t listen to me, don’t blame me when you lose face.”

“You son of a bitch~ Why is my life so bitter? Your father left early, leaving us orphans and widows. I managed to raise you all, but you are so angry at me, why is my life like this? It’s bitter, I think I might as well not live~” Zhang Lin patted his thigh and cried.

Zhang Tieshan is helpless, his mother has not used this trick for a long time, but I didn’t expect it to come out again now.

Zhang Tieshan stood up and went straight to the room, “Okay mother, hurry up to sleep, staying up late is not good for your health when you are old, so I will go to bed first.” After closing the door, Mrs Zhang Lin was left open to watch. I couldn’t cry anymore, so I had to go to bed sadly.

Zhang Lin’s words did not have any impact on Zhang Tieshan. He still went out when it was dark, but today he did not go directly to the town to find Li Hehua, but went to the mountain with a bow and arrow. He wants to hunt some prey and bring it over to make up for her and Shulin, especially her. Shulin is getting more and more fleshy now, but she is getting thinner and thinner. In fact, he thinks she looks good even if she is fat. What do you need to lose weight and lose weight, it is most important to eat well and drink well.

When it was almost noon, Zhang Tieshan came down from the mountain with his prey, left a pheasant at home, and took the rest to the town, selling half to the restaurant and the other half to Li Hehua.

Afraid that Li Hehua would be too busy, Zhang Tieshan hurried to the stall, but before he got to the stall, he saw a lot of people surrounding the stall from a distance, accompanied by the angry shouts of men.

Zhang Tieshan was startled and stepped forward quickly, so he had nothing to do. He pushed aside the crowd and squeezed in. When he saw the ground, there was a mess on the ground. Standing in the middle, one of them was pointing at Li Hehua and said, “Let me tell you, if you don’t apologize to Lao Tzu obediently today, Lao Tzu will smash your stall! It will make your business completely impossible.”

Li Hehua’s face was ugly, but he didn’t show weakness at all, “Don’t think about it! As I said, my family’s things are fine, you don’t want to frame it!”

When Zhang Tieshan swept the scene, he knew what happened in his heart. Someone came to smash the scene!

Zhang Tieshan’s eyes sank, and he walked quickly to Li Hehua’s side, his eyes wandering over her worriedly, “Are you all right?”

Seeing Zhang Tieshan, for some reason, the tension in Li Hehua’s heart suddenly loosened, and the fear hidden under his calm face was greatly reduced.

“They came to eat, and then they insisted that the things I made were not clean and that there were bugs in them. They wanted me to apologize, and they wanted me to accompany them for twenty taels of silver, or they would come and smash my stall every day.”

Li Hehua knew that these people were here to make trouble on purpose, but she didn’t know why. Could it be that she offended someone invisibly?

Zhang Tieshan heard the words, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he gently stroked Li Hehua’s arm, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”

In a word, Li Hehua’s mind was instantly relieved, and his eyes were a little red. In modern times, she is just a young girl who has just graduated. Everyone in the family dotes on her. Anything is solved by her brother. She came here inexplicably. She can only do everything by herself. Now that someone suddenly came out to help her, her heart was instantly sour.

Zhang Tieshan looked at Li Hehua’s red eyes, a surge of anger poured out of his heart, and the look in the eyes of the men who were making trouble was terrifying.

Zhang Tieshan looked at the men on the opposite side, and the next moment they felt that they were inexplicable. Isn’t the other party alone, there are several of them, so what are you afraid of! So, he was even more unscrupulous, pointing at Zhang Tieshan and saying harshly, “I tell you, don’t mind your own business! Otherwise, if something happens, don’t regret it!”

Zhang Tieshan had an expressionless face and asked the person on the opposite side, “Then what do you want to finish?”

Several people thought that Zhang Tieshan had confessed, and couldn’t help but smile proudly. He pointed at the man who had just spoken to Li Hehua and said, “The things in this house are not clean, there are insects in it, who knows if our bodies are bad! She apologized to us and said again. Compensate for the medical money of 20 taels of silver, and we will treat this as never happened, otherwise…”

Zhang Tieshan didn’t say the next words, but Zhang Tieshan understood what he meant, his eyes became even colder, and he said in his mouth: “However, the things on our stall have always been clean, and after doing it for so long, no one found it unclean. How did you find out?” This is obviously saying that they are framed.

Several people couldn’t help but get angry, just thought that this person was more interesting than that fat woman, but it turned out to be the same ignorance!

Seeing that Zhang Tieshan was also unwilling to give money obediently, one of the men said angrily: “I think these two are black-hearted bosses who only cheat on us bosses. Since they don’t want to compensate us, then let’s not be polite and give it to me. !” As he spoke, he moved, and without a word, he picked up the bench on the ground and continued to smash it.

Zhang Tieshan’s eyes slammed, and he stepped forward at a rapid pace. He was a kick at this man. The speed was so fast that people couldn’t see it. In an instant, he kicked the arrogant man back several steps, and fell to the ground all of a sudden, the bench in his hand. He also smashed down, smashing himself to the point of screaming.

The onlookers let out bursts of exclamations, and the other men on the opposite side were also startled. After reacting, they instantly became angry and rushed up to besiege Zhang Tieshan.

“Ah—” Li Hehua cried out in surprise, watching Zhang Tieshan being attacked by several men at the same time, his heartbeat stopped for a beat.

Zhang Tieshan looked at the man who was rushing up, his eyes widened, and he stretched out his legs and kicked the first person to rush up. Invisibly, he grabbed the bench lying beside his feet, raised his arms, and attacked the besieging people. In a blink of an eye, several people were all hit, hugging their arms and legs and screaming in pain.

Several people did not admit defeat. After mourning for a while, they rolled their eyes, and at the same time picked up the bench on the ground and called Zhang Tieshan again.

Zhang Tieshan’s Meifeng didn’t move at all, and once again swung the bench in his hand, but this time the force was much heavier. Not only did he knock off the bench in the opponent’s hand, but he also kicked them to the ground one by one. This time, it was never get up again.

Truly a landslide victory.

Li Hehua’s heart was instantly relieved. She was really afraid that Zhang Tieshan would be hit, but she didn’t expect him to knock down this group of people in a few strokes, but she was still worried, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, “Zhang Tieshan, are you alright? Bar?”

Zhang Tieshan shook his head lightly, “I’m fine, don’t worry.”

Li Hehua glanced at him up and down to make sure that there were no scars on his body, and he was relieved. However, at this moment, a low voice suddenly sounded around him. Before Li Hehua could respond, his body was turned around. The direction was instantly surrounded by Zhang Tieshan’s broad chest.

Li Hehua hadn’t realized what was going on, but he heard a crash and Zhang Tieshan’s muffled groan. The next second, it was the sound of porcelain shattering.

Li Hehua’s heart skipped a beat, “What’s wrong with you Zhang Tieshan?” As he spoke, he was about to turn behind him to look at his back. It should have been the porcelain bowl that smashed into his back just now.

Zhang Tieshan pulled Li Hehua, “It’s okay, it’s okay.” After speaking, it was too late to say anything else, he turned to look at the few people who were still lying on the ground, and asked word by word, “Who smashed it just now? of?”

Several people were frightened by Zhang Tieshan, and all shook their heads slightly, indicating that they did not do it themselves. Joke, this is not the time to be tough. They kicked the iron plate today. They thought it was a good job, but they were beaten unexpectedly. When I go back, I must ask that person for more money. Today is a big loss. !

One of them shook his head a bit slower because he was the one who smashed it.

Zhang Tieshan looked at this man, his eyes were like a beast, he walked towards him step by step, lifted him from the ground with one hand, and lifted his feet off the ground.

The man was so breathless that he was so frightened that he instantly forgot his prestige at the beginning, and shouted, “Hey man, spare your life! I don’t dare anymore, I don’t dare anymore, please forgive me!”

However, Zhang Tieshan lifted him higher and higher, as if he wanted to shove him to the ground, scaring the man to beg for mercy even louder.

Seeing that this person could no longer hold on, Zhang Tieshan spoke coldly, “Want me to spare you?”

The man nodded vigorously, “Forgive me… spare me…”

Zhang Tieshan said: “It’s okay to spare you, but you smashed the stall. You must compensate for this loss, otherwise…”

Several people trembled with fright at the same time, and the person in Zhang Tieshan’s hands was the first to shout: “Pay! We pay!” If he didn’t pay, he would die.

Zhang Tieshan’s strength is not loose, “Then pay out now, three taels of silver.”

Several people heard that they wanted three taels of silver, and they all wanted to say that this was extortion, but they dared not say it.

Several people looked at each other a few times, and finally decided to give it. Anyway, the money is to be asked by the person who hired them, not their own.

A few people tremblingly took out the money and put it together, collected enough 3 taels of silver, and put it on the ground, “Good man, the money is here, you let us go.”

Zhang Tieshan glanced at the silver, threw the person in his hand, and said sternly: “Go away! If you dare to come here again in the future, it will not be so simple!”

A few people didn’t dare to say a word, they got up and ran away despite the pain, and disappeared in an instant.

Zhang Tieshan picked up the silver on the ground and handed it to Li Hehua, “Here, this money is enough for you to buy new things, don’t be sad.”

Seeing that he was only worried that she was smashed and sad, Li Hehua felt sour in his heart and couldn’t help but said, “When are you still worried about this, how is your back? The bowl was not lightly smashed just now.”

The bowl just smashed so far, how could it be okay? If Zhang Tieshan hadn’t blocked it for her, she would have bled into a river by now.

Zhang Tieshan saw that she was so worried about herself, and the burning feeling on her back disappeared in an instant. She only felt that the ironing was incomparable, “I’m fine, I’m rough and thick, I’m really fine.”

Li Hehua didn’t believe what he said, so he immediately decided to close the stall and call a doctor for him.

Until this time, the fourth sister Cao Daya and Da He, who had been hiding by the side, dared to come up.

Cao Simei asked, “Sister, are you all right?”

Li Hehua shook his head, “I’m fine.”

Cao Simei bit her lower lip, embarrassment flashed in her eyes. Someone just came to smash the place. She was tall and fierce. She was really scared and didn’t dare to go forward. At the same time, she subconsciously pulled Da He, who wanted to come forward to help, but did not let him go up to help. This group of people is so fierce, Da He is still a child, with such a thin body, it is useless to go up, but may be seriously injured, if something happens to Da He, she can’t explain to the ancestors.

But the lotus girl is so kind to their family, but she…

“Sister, I just…”

Li Hehua knew what Cao Simei wanted to say, and interrupted her in advance, “Sister, don’t say anything, Zhang Tieshan is injured, let’s close the stall first, I’ll ask him a doctor.”

Cao Simei couldn’t say what she wanted to say, so she lowered her head and helped Li Hehua to clean up the stall together.

Li Hehua lowered his head, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

She knew that the situation just now was very dangerous, and she would be beaten if she didn’t do well. She could understand what Cao Simei did. It was human nature. But emotionally, she was disappointed. She really regarded Cao Simei as her eldest sister, and she really took care of her family’s children, but at her most critical moment, they hid and left her to face the danger alone, if Zhang Tieshan was not there, today She is probably going to be more fortunate.

But she won’t blame them for anything. Everyone has closeness and distance in their hearts. It’s normal, and she has it too. Just like her, Shulin is the first in her heart. It turns out that under the book is Cao The family is a family, but after today, under the forest of books is Zhang Tieshan. He is her savior, and she will never forget it for the rest of her life.

Li Hehua asked Cao Simei and the others to go home first and come back the day after tomorrow, while she and Zhang Tieshan went back to the small courtyard together.

Looking at the backs of the two people, Cao Simei’s family of three felt uneasy, and Gu Dafeng, who was standing in the crowd, also clenched his fists in annoyance.

When he got home, Li Hehua pulled Zhang Tieshan down and pulled Zhang Tieshan’s belt.

Zhang Tieshan’s pupils shrank, subconsciously grabbed Li Hehua’s hand, and asked softly, “What are you doing?”

Li Hehua frowned, “Take off your shirt and let me see, your back must be hurt.”

Zhang Tieshan’s face froze for a moment, his palms clenched into fists tightly, and his breathing was also rapid for a moment, but under Li Hehua’s clear and clean gaze, he slowly let go of his hands, letting Li Hehua untie his belt, then take off his shirt, and then Then the underwear, until the shirtless.

In the past, when he was working and taking a shower, he was not without his shirtless shirts, but at this time, Zhang Tieshan felt uncomfortable, his heart seemed to be on fire, and he didn’t dare to move.

Li Hehua didn’t know Zhang Tieshan’s suffering at the moment, nor did she have any other thoughts, she just wanted to see his injury.

Zhang Tieshan was really badly injured. His back was purple and bloodshot, and he looked terrifying. One could tell how painful it was, but this man didn’t show it at all.

Li Hehua was even more grateful and at the same time very guilty. It was because of her that he was hurt.

“Zhang Tieshan, wait here, I’ll go get a doctor for you.” He was about to leave in a hurry.

Zhang Tieshan grabbed her and said, “Just rub some medicinal wine on this injury. You don’t need to ask a doctor. Even if you ask a doctor, the doctor will ask you to rub the medicinal wine. Trust me, I have experience.”

Li Hehua remembered that Zhang Tieshan often hunted, and guessed that he was really experienced. He should be right, so he quickly returned to the room to get the medicinal wine he bought earlier.

“I’ll knead it for you, but I’m not very good at kneading it, maybe it’s not good.” Li Hehua said.

Zhang Tieshan turned his back to Li Hehua, and the corner of his mouth tickled, “It’s fine, just rub it away with a little effort.”

Li Hehua nodded, poured some medicinal wine in his hand, rubbed it hot, and rubbed it on Zhang Tieshan’s back. Zhang Tieshan froze for a moment, and then he didn’t respond, as if it didn’t hurt at all.

Li Hehua knew that rubbing the medicinal wine was actually very painful. In order to reduce the pain, she began to talk to him, “Zhang Tieshan, you beat those people so badly, aren’t you afraid that they will report to the officials? If they kill me, my food is not clean. , I may have to lose money, right?”

Zhang Tieshan smiled and asked back: “Then do you think they said they were going to report to the official from the beginning to the end?”

Li Hehua thinks about it, it seems that there is no such thing.

Zhang Tieshan continued: “They don’t dare to report to the officials. Those few people are the gangsters in the town. Everyone in the government knows them. They also receive money to do things themselves, so how dare they report to the officials?”

So this is ah.

Li Hehua suddenly realized, but then he remembered the people behind the scenes, who in the end bought these people to trouble her?

Li Hehua thought about it, and felt that the most likely thing was to go with her. It was estimated that she was jealous of her family’s good business, and wanted to trouble her. It was best if she couldn’t continue.

Apart from this speculation, she really couldn’t think of anything else.

Zhang Tieshan obviously also thought of this, his eyes sank, and after a while, he said, “Don’t worry, I will be here in the future, don’t be afraid.”

Li Hehua’s breathing was stagnant, and he lowered his head and continued the movements in his hands, as if he hadn’t heard these words.
