Chapter 38: Righteousness and Courage
By the time Qin Zhi had finished buying everything, it was already past noon.
"Let's go get some food." She was too lazy to go home and cook again, so she went directly to Piaoxiang Building.
Xue Shen naturally had no objection and followed her in.
Ordered a few dishes casually, and the two sat in the middle of the hall by the window, which was a corner, not very eye-catching, but despite this, the excellent appearance of the two still attracted the attention of many people.
Xue Shen never cared about this, and Qin Zhi was even more so, his hungry stomach was screaming at this time, and he didn't have the energy to care whether others looked at him or not.
The dishes of Piaoxianglou are also a must, but Xue Shen, who has eaten the dishes made by Qin Zhi, still feels that they are more than one grade behind.
The two chatted as they prepared to go back to sleep after eating.
At that moment, there were two shouts.
"What about your shopkeeper?" There was a table of people sitting next to the door, about four or five, and the one who shouted was tall and big, and he looked not young, but his face was already full of wrinkles, and he was already fierce, and he felt even more difficult to provoke.
The few next to them didn't look good, and they all looked fierce.
The little two who stepped forward to settle the account were going to cry.
But these people in front of him are really not easy to mess with, but they owe too many debts, and he just euphemistically persuaded them to settle the bill, and they were going to call the shopkeeper to come, as if they were looking for fault.
"It's a few of them again, tsk, this is eyeing Piaoxianglou." Such a voice came from the table next to Qin Zhi.
"Oh? What's going on? Qin Zhi glanced at the seat over there, and couldn't help but ask a few words.
Since she started to change careers to provide vegetables to Piaoxianglou, she rarely comes to the town, most of them just come to visit, and Piaoxianglou has not come a few times in person.
The person who was talking next to him was a young man, and when he saw someone talking curiously, he couldn't help but look over, and when he saw Qin Zhi, he was still stunned for a moment.
Qin Zhi's table was in a remote position, and behind them, he really didn't notice that there was such a big beauty just now.
At this time, when I saw it, my eyes suddenly lit up, and I was a little speechless.
"Ahem." Xue Shen's hand couldn't help but clench, and he coughed lightly, with some warning.
The voice was not loud, with a little chill, so that the man quickly came back to his senses, glanced at Xue Shen, and saw that his whole body was exuding cold air, and he couldn't help but quickly withdraw his gaze, and he didn't dare to continue to look at Qin Zhi.
"You don't know? These people are also known as gangsters in the county, with a bad attitude, I don't know what medicine I took wrong, I always come to Piaoxianglou on credit recently, and the shopkeeper Chen is a good talker, so I didn't care about it at first.
But this group of people is getting more and more inches, which adds up to more than a dozen taels of silver, let them settle the bill, they will make trouble, no, it will make trouble again. ”
He raised an eyebrow at the side, motioning for the two to look over.
Xiao Er over there didn't know what he said to anger those people, so he rolled up his sleeves as soon as he got up, seeing that this posture was about to fight.
Someone couldn't stand it anymore and hurriedly called the shopkeeper.
"Nobody's in charge?" Qin Zhi was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that a place like Piaoxianglou should be a town town.
"Hey, why not, but that group of people can fight very well, and there have been several times before that someone has to take care of it, and they can't get up after three or two beatings." The man was a little embarrassed.
"Why don't you report to the official?" Xue Shen frowned slightly.
"The one who leads, that's the one!" The man's voice lowered, and he pointed to the one who had started with it.
"I heard that someone in his family is doing things in the yamen, and he is very lawless, and it is useless to report to the official, the first few times Piaoxianglou are helpless and kind words to persuade him, but these people have to come up inch by inch, come every day, and can't drive away, and it is very difficult."
As he spoke, there was some fear in his voice.
Qin Zhi and the two glanced at each other and looked towards the scene.
I don't know who started first, the group of people kicked over the table with a bang, and the people who could get in were not spared, and their clothes were stained with some oil, but they just frowned and didn't dare to make a noise, so they quickly hid away.
As the plate crackled to the ground, the people around also hurriedly hid, Qin Zhi and their table were far away, but there was nothing to do.
"Today Lao Tzu put his words here," the leader shouted fiercely, "If you ask for money, Lao Tzu will smash your store!" ”
The little brothers behind him seemed to be trying to match his words, and there was another burst of ping-pong, and the tables and chairs were kicked over.
The shopkeeper happened to go out today, but he was not here now, and the person who went to call had not come back yet, Xiao Er's face suddenly turned a little pale.
"Why is this man so unreasonable?" Qin Zhi heard someone beside him complaining in a whisper.
"It's all a little gangster, it's weird to be reasonable." Someone replied in a low voice.
She frowned, no matter who saw this meeting during dinner, she was in no mood to continue eating.
"What, is there no one? Do you want silver? When the man saw that everyone was afraid of him, he felt quite majestic, and said triumphantly.
There was a mess at the door, and the guests were far away.
Qin Zhi originally wanted to eat well, but he really felt noisy, especially when this person also scolded, from Chen's shopkeeper's father and mother to his mouth, his mouth was very dirty, which made people feel disgusted when they stopped.
"Brother Shen, it's so noisy." Qin Zhi frowned and complained coldly.
Everyone didn't dare to speak out because of that person's demonstration, there was silence in the huge Piaoxiang Building, Qin Zhi was just a normal voice, but it was clear to people.
“……”
Everyone looked at her, although there were a lot of people in front of her, and Qin Zhi was sitting again, but it was really hard not to notice her face at a glance.
"Who the said that...... The leader of the little gangsters saw that someone was making a noise, so he looked over here, and when his eyes fell on Qin Zhi, his face changed instantly, and his fierceness turned into obscenity, and his eyes kept scanning Qin Zhi's body.
"Where did the little beauty come from......" As soon as his voice changed, he was about to walk towards Qin Zhi.
The people here hurriedly dodged, but Qin Zhi was motionless, with a smile on his lips.
"Isn't this girl stupid?" Such doubts arise in people's hearts.
But the little thug hadn't walked a few steps when suddenly there was another person in front of him, blocking his view.
"Don't come here, don't stand in the way of Lao Tzu looking at beauties!" He subconsciously wanted to push Xue Shen away, but he never thought that his wrist would suddenly be grabbed.
Who is Xue Shen? A living tiger can't fight him, and this hand is a little harder, and the little gangster will cry wolf.
"Ahh He felt that his wrist was about to be broken, and he wanted to swing it away, but he felt that his hand was like some kilogram of iron, which made people unable to move.
Xue Shen couldn't get used to him just now, but now when he saw that he dared to look at Qin Zhi with such eyes, he suddenly became angry, his face was gloomy, and before everyone could react from this contrast, he fell over the shoulder with a neat one.
The leader of the gangsters, who usually showed his teeth and claws, seemed to have no power to fight back, and he was thrown to the ground when he felt that the world was spinning.
"Hurt!! Xue Shen used a lot of strength, and he wailed out in pain. But Xue Shen's movements didn't stop, as soon as he stepped on his stomach, his fists and feet beckoned, and the operation was as fierce as a tiger, and in a blink of an eye, the gangster had been beaten into a pig's head.
He suddenly stopped looking at any beauties, and turned his head and shouted at the younger brothers. "What are you doing, !! up"
The last one was a bit out of tune, because Xue Shen's kick directly turned into a scream.
The thugs' faces were also a little pale, and their hands were constantly sweating.
"What are you afraid of, there are so many of us!" Someone shouted, as if to cheer themselves up.
A few people gritted their teeth and looked at the boss who was lying on the ground wailing, but they still rushed up.
Everyone couldn't help but sweat for Xue Shen.
Only Qin Zhi was not worried at all, he sat leisurely and admired Xue Shen fighting, he was good-looking, and he was exceptionally smooth in fighting, his movements were very handsome, and at the same time, his face was expressionless, which was called a cool.
Qin Zhi looked straight at it, not to mention it, her husband looked really handsome without saying a word!
The result didn't need to be imagined, in less than a stick of incense, Xue Shen clapped his hands unharmed, condescendingly, his face was still cold, as if he had no emotion.
There was a large area lying in the vacant space in the middle, all of which were constantly wailing, where was there still a little majesty?
When Shopkeeper Chen hurried back, he saw this scene.
He and Xue Shen glanced at each other, tugged at the corners of their mouths, and raised a smile.
Although he knew that he was good at kung fu, this encounter still startled him.
"Shopkeeper Chen, act bravely, don't need Xie Ha." Xue Shen didn't say a word, Qin Zhi finally got up and stepped forward, and greeted him leisurely, saying that this righteous and courageous act was as simple as eating and drinking.
Shopkeeper Chen felt a little hurt in his heart, he was too old to stand the fright.
But it's thanks to the couple that otherwise today's troubles would not be over.
"How can I meet you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to keep this restaurant!" He hurriedly stepped forward, frightened, his face was full of gratitude, fortunately Xue Shen was here, otherwise it would really not end well.
"But ......" looked at the thug lying on the ground, and he didn't know what to do with it.
This little gangster has had a headache for many days, but the credit is all verbal, and there is no such thing as a pledge, so he can't go to the official to ask for money.
They can't stop themselves from making trouble, and there are still people in the yamen to support them, and he doesn't dare to provoke them, as for blocking them from entering the door? That's even more unexpected, there are a few juniors under his hands who are still lying down.
Shopkeeper Chen said this with a bitter face, which was really embarrassing.
After teaching a lesson this time, I can't guarantee that he will come back next time, but Xue Shen is not here all the time, what can he do next time?
Qin Zhi listened, but his eyes rolled, "It's not simple. ”
"Madame, has a way?" Shopkeeper Chen hurriedly looked at her, and his eyes were about to take her as a lifesaver.
"Where's the ledger?" Qin Zhi looked around and asked.
The ledger was soon in her hands, and she opened it carefully, and it recorded how much the thugs owed, and it was clear.
She crouched down and walked over to the thugs, grabbing their fingers one by one and pressing them with the ink.
"That's not it." She got up and handed the account book to Shopkeeper Chen, but saw everyone looking at her with ghostly expressions.
And this kind of operation?
Everyone looked at each other.
"Isn't this a forced drawing? Not okay? "There are guys who ask questions with trepidation.
Qin Zhi hated that iron could not become steel, these people were really brainless. "They're owing it, aren't they?"
Everyone nodded.
"Then it doesn't matter if he is forced or not? If the account is real, it will be tied up and sent to the government, and no one will dare to deny it! Qin Zhi clapped his hands and said, adding another sentence at the end, "Just in case, let them sign again." ”
The crowd was silent.
