Meng Zhengchu has two in his forties this year. He is tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a Chinese face, and he looks quite upright.

Six years ago, the world was peaceful, and Meng Zhengchugui was the vice president of the Binhai High Court, with prominent power. He was familiar with the law, fair and strict, and had adjudicated many cases that made the masses applaud.

Previously, this image of him happened to be a perfect match for his profession. Everyone said that Judge Meng was a good judge. He has a happy family, a successful career, and a reputation that makes others envious.

After the revival of the aura, the social order collapsed, and the courts naturally closed their doors. Meng Zhengchu did not awaken any ability.

He and his wife hid at home, and spent several years in a daze relying on the good porridge of the city lord's mansion.

He was accompanied by only his sick wife, who had become waste of paper.

After the resumption of production in Binhai, the situation has improved. Many ordinary people go out of their homes to find work to improve their lives, and Meng Zhengchu is also one of them. He wanted to improve food for his wife.

It's a pity that this era is not very kind to his profession.

In the past, law was a profession with a wide range of applications. Meng Zhengchu, who has a court background, if he jumps to a law firm, there will be a lot of bosses rushing to ask for it.

But now, the coastal streets and alleys are full of recruitment advertisements, recruiting skilled workers. A clerical job like his is almost useless.

As a man, as a once successful man, he was unwilling to live on handouts. But the reality is that troubled times don't need laws at all. The coastal area is already very good, Meng Zhengchu heard that in other cities, ordinary people live no different from slaves.

At least there is freedom on the coast.

Fortunately, Meng Zhengchu had formed a lot of good karma when he was a judge, and Ma Weide had received his favor.

At that time, the large hotel chain run by Ma Weide was subject to contract fraud by his partners, and his decades of hard work were in vain, and he was almost swept out of the house.

Judge Meng studied Ma Weide's case file in detail, and after additional investigation and evidence collection, returned the original judgment of Ma Weide's property to him.

Ma Weide will never forget Judge Meng's kindness. So even though the world has changed drastically, he still recognized the down-and-out Meng Zhengchu at a glance among the people who applied for jobs.

"Judge Meng, if you really can't find a job, you can come to me and serve dishes. Ma Weide's sincerity is not a fraud, "Although my salary is low, the store is often frequented by cultivators, and there will be some leftovers......"

These days, cultivators enjoy the best resources of the whole society, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is brocade clothes and meat. Being able to eat their leftovers is not only not a shame for civilians, but even a capital that can be used to boast.

So it's a very generous perk.

The years have already smoothed out Meng Zhengchu's edges and arrogance, and thinking of his weak and sick wife at home, he accepted this new job with great gratitude.

Ma Weide's chain of restaurants has naturally long been wiped out, and he now has opened a small two-story restaurant in the commercial street, called Lao Ma Tu Restaurant. The store is small, with six private rooms and a hall with four tables.

Such a small business is quite popular right now. Moreover, Ma Weide was born as a chef in his early years, and his skills have not been unfamiliar for so many years. After coming and going, he became famous in the circle of cultivators, and his business became more and more prosperous.

So, there is even some spare money to recruit a few guys.

The job of serving dishes can be done with hands and legs, but it is a little aggrieved by Judge Meng. You must know that Judge Meng used to be a person with status.

But the way of the world is like this, the so-called thirty years in the east of the river and thirty years in the west of the river. Meng Zhengchu put on the greasy clothes of the waiter, greeted the guests with a smile, nodded his head, and did not see the majesty of the original justice.

He himself figured it out, hard work to get rich, what kind of work is not work. I can't get off work until one or two o'clock in the morning every day. Some extravagant diners ordered a large table, and luckily they were able to leave most of the left.

Such leftovers can be broken on the outside, because there is a lot of meat and oil inside. These two are still scarce, and hard-working civilians see them once or twice a month.

Ma Weide took care of him, and every time he cleaned up, he always left the best part for him.

Meng Zhengchu naturally thanked him every time and took it home with a stainless steel pot.

But he wouldn't have touched it himself.

They are all brought back to replenish the body of their frail and sick wife.

If it weren't for his wife, killing him, he wouldn't have asked for it.

This is the story of Judge Meng Zhengchu, in troubled times, such human sorrows are numerous.

But in general, he was lucky, he didn't starve to death, he wasn't eaten by youkai, and he didn't lose his life for any ridiculous reason in troubled times. Even the family is safe. He always comforts himself that contentment is happiness.

If Ji Yushu hadn't walked into Lao Ma Tucai Restaurant today, Meng Zhengchu would probably have lived such a dull life all the time.

Ji Yushu is a cultivator of Binhai, and his strength is not high or low. He has no ambitions, and he is barely strong in both fighting and cultivating. However, with the identity of a cultivator as a foundation, he is also chic and comfortable.

No, it has recently been rumored in the circle of cultivators that the Lao Ma Tu Restaurant on East Street has excellent craftsmanship. He made an appointment with three or five friends and took advantage of dinner time to find out.

And they weren't empty-handed, each of them carried a duck in their hands.

After pig breeding, Marina has found a way to raise poultry and has now begun to try to raise poultry. Of course, it is still the trial period, and civilians will definitely not see it.

Only practitioners with military merits are eligible to try new ones.

Ji Yushu and the others fought a few days ago, and the city lord Yu rewarded a fat duck by himself.

Several people got their hands on it, and Ji Yushu suggested: Instead of messing around and wasting it yourself, it is better to take it to the Lao Ma Tu Restaurant by the way and let the boss make roast duck.

I haven't eaten roast duck for a long time, and suddenly several people are watering and applauding.

So these three cultivators, one of them swaggered through the market with a duck in his arms. The arms rattled wildly, and passers-by pointed and pointed, revealing envious eyes. Civilians don't recognize the superiority of magic weapons, but ducks do.

"The treatment of cultivators is really good. The passers-by who followed exchanged heads, "There are ducks to eat!"

Ji Yushu and the others were even more proud, and as soon as they stepped into the Lao Ma Tucai Restaurant, they began to shout loudly: "Where's the boss, make us roast duck!"

I'm afraid that others won't hear me.

Ma Weide ran out of the back kitchen with a smile on his face, and when he saw this scene, he didn't know where the distinguished guests came.

"Inside, please, adults sit down first. He grabbed the wings with one hand, and the three ducks were honest, "It will take a little time to roast the duck, I don't know ...... adults."

"We can afford to wait!" Ji Yushu waved his hand, "Go bake quickly, and besides, the money is indispensable to you, but don't give us a deduction!"

"How come!" Ma Weide laughed and shouted towards the back kitchen, "Old Meng, make tea for a few adults!"

When Meng Zheng heard this, he brought the prepared tea tray. He was originally full of business smiles like Lao Ma, but when he met Ji Yushu, the two of them were stunned.

Guess why.

Could it be that Ji Yushu had suffered at the hands of Judge Meng before, and today he can pretend to be slapped in the face?

Or is Judge Meng's wife Ji Yushu's first love, who was robbed of her love by a knife at the beginning, and can finally take revenge today?

It's a pity that the reality is not so bloody. The two do have a dispute, but it's a very common one.

They were high school classmates. Eight years ago, Ji Yushu borrowed Wu 10,000 yuan from Judge Meng.

It has not been returned to this day.
