Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Incident Continues to Ferment

The little fat man rolled around on the ground a few times, clamoring to go back with Li Chuxia.

Mrs. Li's face was red and white for a while, even if she was reluctant, she could only agree.

Then Li Chuxia asked Chuyun to take the little fat man back, laughing and laughing along the way.

Mrs. Li saw that they were very harmonious, and jumped to her feet even more angrily, so she simply walked in front of them alone.

"Out of sight is clean!"

Mrs. Li, who muttered this sentence in her mouth, passed by Li Chuxia and her party, and walked forward with her legs and feet.

"Grandma walks so fast!" Li Chuyun exclaimed.

Mrs. Li is nearly seventy years old, and it is rare for her to be so flexible on her legs and feet, and to walk faster than young people.

Li Chuxia looked at Mrs. Li's somewhat funny back, and couldn't help laughing.

Hearing the laughter not far behind her, the more Mrs. Li thought about it, the more angry she became, she clenched her fists through gritted teeth, and scolded secretly.

After returning to the wooden house, Li Chuxia was about to cook dinner, and when he saw Baili Yunzheng coming back from outside, he subconsciously asked, "Where have you been?" ”

Baili Yunzheng smiled, "I've been following you all the time." ”

So what does that mean a personal bodyguard?

didn't think much about it, and continued to bury himself in cooking, but the people around him started to do it on their own.

Inexplicably, I feel that the kitchen is quite harmonious, and they are doing their own things very tacitly.

Because there is a little fat man in the cabin, there is a lot of laughter, Li Chuxia still sees that he is still very obedient, and his poor personality is also because Mrs. Li loves her grandson like her life, and there is a problem with discipline.

"A-Niang said that she wanted to open a restaurant, and when I grew up, she would use the restaurant to marry my daughter-in-law." The little fat man looked at Li Chuyun proudly.

Li Chuyun flattened her mouth and didn't speak, she also knew in her heart that Auntie and Grandma didn't love her, and it was common for her to favor her younger brother.

Li Chuxia was alert at this time, there was something strange in his heart, and he took a candy to the little fat man, "Brother, where did they get the money to open a restaurant?" ”

The little fat man happily took the candy and continued, "It is said that the title deed left by Daddy is not far from the city. ”

"That's ......"

Li Chuxia was thoughtful, now Xie stole his secret fish ball recipe, and now he is still thinking about opening a restaurant, which is really a plan.

Because after the secret recipe for fish balls in Li Chuxia was lost, the people in the village began to imitate fish balls, and even the workers who had signed up to catch fish before also left a lot, and everyone wanted to make money with fish balls.

The fish balls imitated by the villagers are also somewhat similar to those made by Li Chuxia, so they secretly went to the city to sign with those major restaurants, and they provided fish balls similar to the first one.

For a while, everyone in the village made a lot of money with a smile, and some people even repaired the houses with pride.

Li Chuxia and Wei Jingran have already discussed, and she will come up with other special dishes for the first one next, and this time she will not write out the secret recipe again.

Although Wei Jingran said that the restaurant had some losses, he did not blame Li Chuxia, after all, it was not her fault.

Just when Li Chuxia was still thinking about what kind of dishes to make people shine, the people from the government came to take her away again.

Baili Yunzheng looked at this time as if something was wrong, so he followed directly without thinking about it.

Returning to the court again, Li Chuxia saw that the person who seemed to accuse her was someone else, and vaguely guessed that this time the incident seemed to be related to her lost fish ball recipe.

The magistrate had a good impression of this woman because he had tried Mrs. Li's ridiculous case before, "Li Chuxia, is it true that you made your own fish balls to supply the restaurant?" ”

"The fish balls I made are only for the first restaurant, and the county magistrate can ask the shopkeeper Shen of the first restaurant if there is such a thing." Li Chuxia said slowly.

The magistrate heard her say this, so he asked someone to hurry up and invite the shopkeeper Shen of the first restaurant.

After the shopkeeper Shen arrived, she did testify that she had signed a contract with the first restaurant to provide fish balls and regularly teach the cooks in the back kitchen to learn how to cook.

The magistrate frowned slightly, and continued: "But the owners of several other restaurants said that you signed a note with them to supply fish balls, and because the processing of fish balls is not hygienic, it caused diners to eat your fish balls and have diarrhea. ”

Li Chuxia's expression was dazed, and he immediately spoke: "Then the troublesome magistrate invited the bosses of those families to come over and confront me, and I didn't sign the note with them. ”

The magistrate gave the people under him a look, and immediately a group of officials called a group of people from outside the hall.

There were about six restaurant owners, who were brought over by the officials one after another.

looked at those bosses with a bitter gourd on their faces, but Li Chuxia didn't know those people, she hadn't signed any notes with these people at all, and those fish balls were all supplied by people in the village.

"I told the county that I haven't seen these people." Li Chuxia's eyes swept directly over those people, "There are many villagers in my village who copy the fish balls I made, so those diners will have diarrhea after eating fish balls, and I didn't make fish balls, so I should find someone who signed a note with them." ”

The magistrate only listened to Li Chuxia's words at this time, and did not make a decision, but raised his eyes to look at the bosses next to him.

"How many people in the hall are restaurant owners? Do you know this woman? ”

"Yes......"

Several people nodded in unison, and then moved their eyes to Li Chuxia, who was standing next to him.

One of the restaurant owners shook his head directly, and said honestly, "I don't know, but the person who signed the note with us said that she made the fish balls, and we asked us to come to her if something happened." ”

Lord Zhixian laughed at this time, and looked at the people in the hall, "Then this is strange, obviously you want to sign the note of the fish balls, and you diners don't go to the person who signed with you when something happens, but go to Li Chuxia?" ”

Li Chuxia nodded seriously, although he is not familiar with this magistrate, he is also a good official who is honest and honest, and he will speak fairly for himself.

Several bosses turned a little pale for a while, and they were a little ashamed of what the county said, because they took a fancy to the taste of this fish ball and the first one, so they signed the note.

"When we signed the fish ball note with those people, those people assured us that it must have been made by Li Chuxia himself, and they said that something happened to Li Chuxia."

There was a boss who stood up under pressure, although he knew that they were responsible for the loss, but this matter had to find someone to bear the loss of them.

"That's really interesting, I said I did it, and you signed it, so why don't you ask me to sign it myself?" Li Chuxia glanced at the bosses standing next to him lightly, and he didn't know if these people were really brainless or fake.

Seeing that the situation in the hall had reached an impasse at this time, the magistrate ordered his subordinates, "Come and bring those people who signed the fish ball note." ”

There was a special official to go to the villagers who had signed the note, and the hall did not stop at this time, and continued to question.

"Li Chuxia, you really haven't signed another restaurant?"

"There is no Lord Hui Zhixian, because the little girl knows that her skills are good, so she chooses the best restaurant to sign a contract." Li Chuxia replied confidently.

The restaurant owners standing next to them had even more ugly faces, and they regretted it in their hearts after listening to it.

At this time, the magistrate recalled the taste of the fish balls falling into his mouth at that time, and swallowed his saliva, "I also ate the first fish balls, and they really taste good." ”

After a while, the villagers who had signed the notes with the bosses, including the Xie family, were also arrested.

Smack-

Shocked, the magistrate looked at the arrested villagers in the audience with a serious expression.

"But how many of you signed the fish ball note with these restaurant owners?"

These villagers, you look at me, I see that you don't dare to speak, and they all turned their eyes to Xie Shi who was standing next to him.

Xie Shi saw that these people were all looking at him, so he scolded them angrily in a low voice, "Idiot, have you forgotten what I told you before? ”

After being reminded, the villagers stepped forward to answer.

These people all said that their fish balls were supplied by Li Chuxia, and Li Chuxia made them by biting this fish ball.

Li Chuxia treated these villagers who bit back on him very leisurely, "Then you should take out the evidence that I gave you fish balls, the number of fish balls I make every time is fixed, and I will give all of them to the first one, and the number on both sides is also right, do you want us to check the accounts?" ”

"This ...... It's obviously the fish balls you taught us to make! The villagers were also anxious at this time, knowing that if they admitted it, they would lose a lot of money.

Li Chuxia's slender willow eyebrows raised upward, "Didn't you just say that I gave you fish balls?" Why did I teach you how to make fish balls again? ”

"You taught us!"

"That's right! You taught us with your own hands! ”

"Not really! Now that something has happened, you don't dare to come out and take the blame? ”

Li Chuxia clasped his hands to his chest and looked at the villagers in front of him without saying a word.

Xie Shi, who was originally hiding in the crowd, also stood up at this time, with a sly smile on his face, "Yes, Li Chuxia made a lot of money with fish balls after he broke up, so tell everyone to learn technology from her and take everyone to make money together." ”

The magistrate also couldn't figure out what was going on at this time, so he asked the people in the audience, "Li Chuxia, everyone said that you taught them to make fish, can you admit it?" ”

"No, because I forgot something important that I didn't say." When Li Chuxia said this, his eyes looked straight at Xie Shi who was standing next to him.

Suddenly, Xie Shi, who was looked at by her like this, felt a little hairy in his heart.

"Someone stole the secret recipe for making fish balls from me!"
