The Peasant Gourment Chef - Chapter 42
The damaged tables and chairs were repaired one by one by Zhang Tieshan, and the broken dishes were bought new. The next day, Li Hehua reopened.
A lot of people saw what happened that day, and many of the townspeople knew the little gangsters, so most of the guests knew that this was deliberately trying to find fault, and it wasn’t that there was really something wrong with what the boss did. Everyone has only sympathy for Li Hehua. After all, those gangsters often bully the street to do business, and most people can only admit it.
Many old customers saw that Li Hehua had opened, and they came to greet him one after another. There was a lot of relief in his words, so that Li Hehua should not care about it, etc. Li Hehua said that his heart was warm.
She was originally worried that because of this incident, the guests would question what she was doing, which would affect the business. She didn’t expect things to be unexpected. The business was not worse than before, and it was a bit better.
Li Hehua looked at Zhang Tieshan who was helping her and guessed that there was also a reason for Zhang Tieshan. That day, Zhang Tieshan threw down the group of thugs by himself, and everyone saw it. Now that Zhang Tieshan is staying here, the guests will feel at ease, and they will not be afraid of being smashed again and hurt themselves, so everyone Dare to come again, plus there is another bodyguard on her stall – Heizi, everyone is even less afraid.
When she sent Shulin to school in the morning, it was she who brought Heizi there. Shulin liked Heizi very much. He grabbed Heizi’s hair at first sight and rubbed it with his little hands. He even played with Heizi last night. When sleeping, although one person and one dog do not speak, they get along very harmoniously. When he entered the academy this morning, the little guy was still reluctant to part with it, and his eyes expressed that he wanted to bring Heizi into the academy.
Li Hehua thought that there was no one in the house, leaving Heizi alone in the house would make it lonely, so he brought it to the stall, fearing that it would scare the guests, so he let it lie at her feet obediently, and it seemed that it was gone. Lethality, the guests will only be curious when they see it, not afraid.
In this way, the stall was very busy for a while, and the business was so good that the two mothers and daughters of the Wu family, who were watching from a distance, hated their teeth.
Wu Meizi stomped her feet in anger, “Mother, she is now open for business again. The business is not bad at all. Brother Tieshan is still helping her!”
Wu Fangshi was also angry. She originally thought that she would see Li Hehua’s miserable business, but she didn’t expect that it would not affect her at all, making her happy for nothing.
Originally, she was racking her brains thinking about how to clean up Li Hehua’s woman, but before she could think of a way, someone would clean up for them first, and she didn’t know where the gangster came from to find trouble with the woman.
When they saw that the tables, chairs and benches were smashed and the woman was about to be beaten, they were overjoyed. They hoped that those people would teach Li Hehua a good lesson, so that she would never dare to do business here again. , it’s better to roll away in a daze, but who would have thought that Zhang Tieshan would get mixed up with good things, and those little gangsters were beaten away instead.
Really **** off!
Wu Meizi looked at Li Hehua’s smiling face and wanted to go up and tear her face up. Why did this woman ruin her face and make her laugh at others all her life, but she lived a good life and made a lot of money With a lot of money, even Brother Tie Shan, who hates her, doesn’t hate her anymore, how can this woman get all this!
“Mother, think of a way. She has nothing to do at all. Brother Tieshan is still helping her with her business early in the morning. If this goes on like this, I really won’t be able to marry!”
Wu Fang’s heart is also anxious, she has already shamelessly went to Zhang Lin’s twice, but every time she was rejected, what can she do! What an ungrateful white-eyed wolf!
Seeing that Wu Fangshi didn’t speak, Wu Meizi’s eyes were so anxious that her eyes were red, and she grabbed her mother’s sleeve and said, “Mother, why don’t we go and find someone to trouble her? I don’t believe that she has never been afraid. Seeing her being smashed by others every three days, no one would want to come to her to eat.” When the business is not done, see how she can ask Brother Tie Shan to help her, see how she can make money and live a good life!
Wu Fangshi knew that her daughter was too anxious now, but she didn’t. She still knew it in her heart, so she couldn’t help shaking her head and said, “No, mother knows that you hate Li Hehua in your heart, but this method really won’t work. Think about it, Looking for a few hooligans, not a few taels of silver can make people move? Where did our family get so much money to hire those people to make trouble? Besides, didn’t you see Zhang Tieshan being dizzy and staying here all the time? , even if there is money to hire someone, the hired person will be beaten away, and the woman will not be hurt at all, this is all wasted effort.”
Wu Meizi heard what her mother said, and had to admit that her mother was right. Where did her family get the money to hire someone to smash the business over and over again?
But can you only watch that **** Li Hehua continue to be so proud? unfair!
Seeing her daughter’s frustration, Wu Fangshi couldn’t bear it anymore, sighed, and patted her arm, “Meizi, don’t worry, mother didn’t say there was no other way.”
Wu Meizi’s eyes lit up and hurriedly grabbed Wu Fangshi’s hand, “Mother, tell me quickly, what can I do?”
Wu Fangshi lifted the hair that Wu Meizi used to cover the scar, and said with anger in her heart: “You forget, the woman Li Hehua caused your injury, she has harmed you for a lifetime, and made you marry until now. No one, shouldn’t she be compensated for this injury?”
Wu Meizi opened her eyes slightly, “Mother, you mean to ask Li Hehua for money? But… but she paid for it before.”
Before Wu Meizi was hurt by Li Hehua, the Wu family was so angry that they collectively came to find Li Hehua for trouble. Compensation was made. At that time, I lost three taels of silver, and I couldn’t give any more. But three taels of silver is not a small sum, so the Wu family let go of Li Hehua at that time.
Wu Fangshi snorted coldly, “You have been ruined by her all your life, even if you pay three taels of silver? At that time, she couldn’t take it out, and we couldn’t kill her, but now it’s different, she’s not in business. Well, seeing that this business is booming, she must have made a lot of money, shouldn’t she compensate you more now?”
Wu Meizi’s eyes lit up, and she felt that her mother was right. Now that the woman has made so much money, shouldn’t she pay her more, but… “Mother, if Li Hehua would not pay it? Do you want her brother and the others to beat her?”
The corner of Wu Fang’s mouth twitched and said, “If that woman doesn’t want to pay, we’ll let Zhang Tieshan marry you. If Zhang Tieshan is willing to marry you, we’ll write off this matter completely. If Zhang Tieshan doesn’t marry you, Li Hehua doesn’t want to lose money either. Then we will go to the government to file a complaint and see if she is afraid!”
Wu Meizi was startled, “Mother, are you really going to complain to the government? I’m afraid…”
Wu Fang patted her hand, “Of course not, it’s just to scare her, she will definitely be scared, and she will obediently lose money, but we want more, she can’t come up with it, she can only ask Zhang Tieshan to marry you already.”
Wu Meizi’s eyes gradually became brighter, and her heart jumped with excitement. She felt that this method was too good. Brother Tie Shan would definitely be willing to marry her. Brother Tieshan has no weight in his heart, so she can also get an extra sum of money, and she will not suffer.
“Mother, this method is good, then let’s do it like this, when will we act?”
Wu Fang thought for a while and said, “Don’t worry, it’s definitely not possible for the two of us to go, and you have to call your two brothers, then you won’t have to be afraid of anything.”
Wu Meizi nodded, unable to wait in her heart.
On this side, Li Hehua didn’t know that she was going to be in trouble again. She was busy all the time. There were too many people today, and she couldn’t rest for a while, but at this time, someone she didn’t want to see came.
Gu Dafeng smiled and said, “Give me a bowl of soy milk and two rouxiao buns.”
Li Hehua nodded, swiftly handed the good things to him, and after taking his money, he would ask the next person what he needed.
Gu Dafeng took the things, his eyes flickered, he hesitated for a moment, and then asked in a low voice, “Then… were you all right that day?”
Li Hehua shook his head, “I’m fine, thank you for your concern.”
Gu Dafeng pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what to say. He stood for a while, and finally walked away in frustration.
He didn’t know what else to say. He happened to be there when that happened that day, but the gangsters came to smash the booth and drove the guests away. He also left the booth with him. He was really scared at that time. She would be beaten. Before he could react, he followed the crowd and ran away. When he reacted, he thought about going to help her, but the group of people was so violent, and everyone was tall and big. , he was not an opponent at all, he was just beaten when he went up, so he didn’t move until the man appeared and rescued her.
He was very annoyed, annoyed by his cowardice, if only he could have stood up at that time, but no if, if things happened again, he still wouldn’t dare to step forward to help her.
He also felt ashamed to come to her again, but he couldn’t control his heart. For some unknown reason, he came here again, so he wanted to come and see how she was doing.
So far, she looks fine.
She was probably disappointed in him? Does he have no chance?
In fact, Li Hehua didn’t have any opinion on Gu Dafeng. He was just an ordinary diners to her. It was normal for her to run away when she was in danger. She would not ask a diner to help her when she was in danger. Therefore, Gu Dafeng is still an ordinary eater in her heart, Gu Dafeng really thinks too much.
Li Hehua has been busy since the morning, and has been busy until the afternoon when all the guests have left before she can take a breath. She is so tired that she can’t get up on the bench.
Zhang Tieshan saw it in his eyes, and there was a hint of distress in his eyes that was difficult to detect, so he poured a glass of water and brought it to Li Hehua.
Li Hehua reached out to take it and said with a smile, “Thank you, I’m just thirsty.”
Zhang Tieshan didn’t speak any more and started to clean up the things on the stall.
Li Hehua drank a large bowl of water, stood up and planned to cook pot noodles for everyone to eat. Everyone is busy and hasn’t eaten yet.
Zhang Tieshan put down what was in his hand and pulled Li Hehua who was about to cook noodles, “Stop moving, you can rest for a while.”
Li Hehua shook his head, “It’s okay, I’ll cook some noodles for us to eat. Everyone is hungry by now.”
Da He on the side nodded silently, he was already hungry, and he was looking forward to what Aunt Lotus would make to support him until now.
Zhang Tieshan pressed Li Hehua back to the bench, “Don’t move, I’ll cook.” He rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the stove.
Li Hehua was taken aback, “Are you here to cook? Can you?”
Zhang Tieshan nodded, and said calmly: “The next noodles will still be good, but they are not as delicious as yours.”
Seeing that he said that, and he had already started to do it, Li Hehua was not good at forcibly interrupting him, so he had to go with him.
Facts have proved that Zhang Tieshan really didn’t lie. The noodles he cooked were really not delicious. It can be said that they were only cooked. As for the taste, it can only be said that they can’t be eaten.
Da He buried his head to eat, but his heart was actually full of tears. Why was he so busy that he couldn’t eat what Aunt Lotus made? Instead, you want to eat something so unpalatable? I really can’t eat it! If he could barely eat before, but after eating what Aunt Lotus made for so long, he really didn’t want to eat it.
But he couldn’t say what was in his heart, so he could only bury his head hard and eat silently, hoping that Aunt Lotus could cook for them tomorrow.
Li Hehua also thought that the noodles made by Zhang Tieshan were very unpalatable, but they were also well-intentioned. She couldn’t be so ignorant, so she ate it with a smile on her face, and kept eating her bowl, even the soup. There is no left, as an expression of encouragement.
Zhang Tieshan was really happy when he saw that Li Hehua was eating cleanly. He cleaned the stall by himself, and then helped Li Hehua to push the cart back to the small courtyard. He was about to leave, but a group of people happened to come outside the door.
Looking closely, it was the Wu family.
Li Hehua looked at the uninvited people, and his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately had a bad premonition.
This family, presumably came to trouble her.
This is indeed the case. Mrs. Wu Fang directly led his two sons and Wu Meizi into the yard. After taking a look around, Pi Xiaorou said without a smile, “You have a really good life, and you still have money. Living in such a nice yard seems to have made a lot of money.”
Li Hehua didn’t want to pay attention to this person. She still remembered that when she first came across, it was this woman who troubled her and caused her to hurt her hand. So she didn’t want to be polite to this person at all, she frowned directly and said, “What are you doing here! I don’t welcome you in my family, just tell me if you have anything, and please leave quickly.”
Wu Fangshi snorted and didn’t mean to leave at all, patted his sleeve and said, “Since you are so straightforward, then we won’t talk to you, we are here for something, do you remember my plum? “
When Wu Fangshi said that, he pulled Wu Meizi in front of him and let Li Hehua take a good look.
Seeing Wu Meizi, especially the scar on her face, Li Hehua felt inexplicably uneasy. She has seen this girl before, and she vaguely guessed that this scar is probably the masterpiece of the original owner in the previous conversation.
Did this family come to settle accounts with her today for this? If it is really the original owner’s masterpiece, then she really can’t escape the relationship. After all, she is Li Hehua now, and all the responsibilities and obligations of the original owner are hers.
So, is she going to take the blame again? After finally being quiet for a period of time, she could no longer be at peace. Sometimes she really wondered if she was too sorry for the original owner in her previous life, so she came to pay her debts in this life.
Seeing that Li Hehua didn’t speak, Mrs Wu Fang pushed Wu Meizi closer to her, “Why don’t you remember my plum? The scar of my plum is thanks to you. You have ruined my whole life. If you can’t get married now, take a good look at it!”
it is as expected.
Li Hehua’s heart sank to the bottom. She has no memory of the original owner, she doesn’t know what happened at that time, and she doesn’t know how to deal with it later. She only knows that according to the original owner’s character, it is very likely that she did it, and it is impossible for the family to falsely accuse her. , so this is probably true.
Then she…
When Zhang Tieshan heard the present, he also heard the intention of the Wu family. Although he was not at home at the time, her mother had already told him the cause and effect of the incident after returning. The truth is exactly as the Wu family said. It was Li Hehua who used the sickle in his hand to slash when he was having a quarrel with Wu Meizi. Yes, but later the Wu family asked for trouble, and Li Hehua lost three taels of silver.
So the Wu family thinks that they are short of three taels of silver now, so do they plan to come and ask for a little more?
If it was the previous Li Hehua, he wouldn’t care about it. After all, it was her own fault, which ruined the face of a good girl and delayed her whole life, and she really deserved compensation.
But now, he clearly knows that she is not Li Hehua, and she is not at fault. She has done too much for Li Hehua, including being troubled by Wu Fang at the beginning, and also including his disgust for her, which should not have been She had to bear it. He didn’t know it before, but now that he knew it, he no longer wanted her to be wronged for Li Hehua’s mistakes.
Zhang Tieshan looked at the Wu family and asked, “What do you guys think now? I remember that Li Hehua had paid you three taels of silver before, right?”
Hearing Zhang Tieshan’s words, Li Hehua suddenly had a number in his heart, and guessed that the Wu family wanted to ask for money again, and said, “Yes, I have already given you three taels of silver before, this matter is over, why do you have to do it now? Bringing this up? Could it be that you still want to extort?”
The corner of Wu Fang’s mouth twitched, and her tone was not good, “Yo, you have the nerve to say, you ruined my daughter’s life and made her unable to marry now, so you will lose three taels of silver, and you think three taels of silver is enough to compensate. My daughter’s life? Back then we had to ignore it because you really had no money. Now your business is doing so well and you have a lot of money in your hands, shouldn’t you pay us a little more? You touch you yourself Your conscience says, are we asking too much?”
To be honest, from an objective point of view, if you ruin a woman’s appearance, it is not enough to pay three taels of silver, and it is okay to pay more, but the Wu family is obviously here to trouble her on purpose, and they don’t want her to feel better. Since the three taels of silver were given, the Wu family has never asked for any more money. This matter should be over, but now they are asking for money again, which makes no sense. Is it because she has made money now, she has to pay more? So in the future, if she earns more money, will she have to keep losing more? According to the appearance of the Wu family, maybe they will really do this.
But if she didn’t give it, the Wu family might come to fight with her every day, and her life would be uneasy.
Li Hehua finds it very difficult. In this case, is she going to take the blame again, make some money for the original owner and set up a deed to solve this matter at one time, or is she determined not to take the blame, that is, not to give this money What about silver?
