Chapter 7: Someone Found!
"I've heard that the kitchen has been running out of ingredients ...... fast lately"
This matter was told by Chef He to the shopkeeper Chen. Sometimes what he thinks has a surplus of ingredients one day may be just enough the next day.
Shopkeeper Chen called a guy to bring the account book and put it in front of everyone.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to speak for a while, and it was so quiet that it could be heard.
Shopkeeper Chen opened his mouth first and asked Jiang Yu, "You said that apart from those leftovers, you have only touched glutinous rice noodles, right?" β
Jiang Yu met Shopkeeper Chen's eyes and nodded very seriously, "Yes, and I've only moved this once." β
He looked at Chef Ho again, who was usually the last to leave. The latter noddedβhe had only seen Jiang Yu stay once.
Shopkeeper Chen continued to ask, "Jiang Yu, do you remember who has touched these ingredients recently?" "After purchasing, Jiang Yu is usually the first to wash and choose the ingredients.
There are not many people in the back kitchen, Jiang Yu ordered a few people, and it was clear when they had moved. After listening to the shopkeeper Chen, he laughed, slapped his hand on the stove, and shouted softly: "Wang Xiaoer, come here!" β
Wang Xiaoer's whole body was excited, and he walked to the shopkeeper Chen resignedly. Jiang Yu glanced at him, it was the person who had just spoken out to question. When I think about it, it seems that this person likes to wander around the food shelf when he is fine.
"You're mistaken!" Shopkeeper Chen shocked everyone when he opened his mouth.
"Palm, shopkeeper, I'm wronged!" Wang Xiaoer was frightened.
"Then tell me who else could it be besides you!" It seems that the shopkeeper seems to have given Wang Xiaoer a chance to discern.
"I ...... I'll ......" Wang Xiaoer's eyes couldn't stop glancing, looking at Jiang Yu, who was calm and relaxed, and suddenly said loudly, "Shopkeeper, how can you be sure that the ginger fish will only be taken once!" Maybe she took this excuse a few days ago! β
This does not seem to be impossible, and some people looked at Jiang Yu's gaze with a little suspicion......
Chef He was also a little angry, "Are you suspecting me of harboring ginger fish?" β
"No, it's not ......" was questioned by Chef He, Wang Xiaoer's voice was a little quieter, "But, Jiang Yu has no skills, and he has to take a child, and the expenses are not enough, so he may be sneaking ......" The more Wang Xiaoer said, the smoother it became, everyone lived together, and they were all clear about Jiang Yu's lack of money.
"Chef He, you didn't see it, it doesn't mean that the ginger fish can't be taken, she has first-hand ingredients every day, who knows what will be leaked into herself......"
Chef He listened and looked at Jiang Yu, there was no panic on her face, she stood there calmly, just now Wang Xiaoer passed by her and bumped into her, and when she heard the words, she said: "Wang Xiaoer, do you dare to tear off your left sleeve?" β
Seeing everyone's gaze, Wang Xiaoer reflexively covered his left arm with his right hand, "Why should I listen to you!" β
Jiang Yu sneered and bowed to Shopkeeper Chen, "Shopkeeper, if you remove Wang Xiaoer's sleeve, you will naturally be able to prove my innocence." β
Shopkeeper Chen just cheated first, but he didn't expect him to bite Jiang Yu.
The shopkeeper Chen asked Wang Xiaoer to press him, and removed the sleeve of his left hand, which was tightly wrapped in a cloth bag...... Shopkeeper Chen asked people to search again, and there were cloth bags wrapped around his waist and legs!
Everyone was stunned.
Wang Xiaoer cried and slapped himself twice, "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, I'm just a ghost...... You can spare me this time......"
Seeing that the shopkeeper Chen ignored him, he climbed to Jiang Yu's feet again, "Miss Jiang, it's okay, it's all my fault, I still have an old man to support, you can help me, help me ask for a favor......"
Although Jiang Yu was so angry, now she was kneeling on the ground with tears on her face, and her pitiful look made her feel a little soft-hearted. His clothes are very old, and I think it's really not in good condition. Jiang Yu took a deep breath, but if he succeeded in framing him this time, she would be the one who left without a way out! Jiang Yu remembered Jiang An's weak appearance, don't turn her head and stop looking at him.
Wang Xiaoer's family is poor, and it is difficult to feed the family who wants to eat when he works in the restaurant, so he takes some food from the restaurant and goes back to the family from time to time. It used to be some leftovers, but when the shopkeeper saw that he was pitiful, he turned a blind eye and passed; Now not only stealing the ingredients, but also splashing dirty water on others, even if the shopkeeper Chen has a good temper, he will not continue to tolerate it.
However, the shopkeeper Chen still left a little affection, but just resigned Wang Xiaoer, counted Wang Xiaoer's wages these days in front of everyone, and told him to take the money and leave. As for why he was allowed to go, Shopkeeper Chen did not say the reason. In this industry, once this reason is exposed, it will be difficult for Wang Xiaoer to find his next job in Nancheng, and his family will really have nothing to eat.
After making a fuss, the guys all lowered their heads and kept silent, with a little shame on their faces, they seemed to be too prejudiced against the new ginger fish. As soon as they heard that Jiang Yu had stolen something, they all believed it. But there were still some people who were still not full, but everyone was silent, and they secretly pouted.
The law does not blame the public, and the shopkeeper Chen has the intention to punish them, and they can't punish everyone at once, just beat them hard and finish the matter.
