The shopkeeper looked at the smashed shop, squatted on the ground and cried.

The shopkeeper took the opportunity to resign, but the chef didn't leave, staying to clean up the mess.

Zhao Meijiao saw that everyone was gone, so she reached out and dragged Tian Ruyue, and the two of them turned around and left.

After this incident, no one had the appetite to continue eating, so Tian Ruyue called a carriage to send Zhao Meijiao back.

On the carriage, Zhao Meijiao wrinkled her little face and complained: "How can there be rats in the soup?" It's disgusting, but luckily we haven't eaten yet. The more I thought about it, the more disgusting I became, and I couldn't help retching a few times.

I felt uncomfortable, and I couldn't help but scold the shopkeeper and the chef.

After scolding, he saw Tian Ruyue's calm expression, and asked with some curiosity: "Why aren't you angry?" ”

Tian Ruyue smiled meaninglessly: "Seeing is not necessarily believing. ”

Zhao Meijiao frowned: "What kind of dumb riddle are you playing?" ”

Tian Ruyue: "I said that you scolded the wrong person, and the shopkeeper and the chef are innocent." The rat was brought by the customer himself, and was deliberately used to discredit the restaurant in order to ruin the business. ”

"How is that possible?!" Zhao Meijiao doesn't believe that there are such bad people in the world.

Tian Ruyue analyzed it for her: "You may not have noticed that the big man at that table ate a lot. You feel sick just thinking about it, and some of the other guests vomited when they saw the dead mice, and the big man moved his chopsticks but was angry but didn't even vomit. ”

Zhao Meijiao: "......"

Tian Ruyue: "So I concluded that he was full of food, so he took advantage of the unpreparedness to throw the dead rat in it and then slander people." "Such a big mouse is longer than chopsticks, and the chef is not blind, how can he not see?

Even if the chef is blind and the guy who serves the food ignores it, how can the big man who moves chopsticks eat half of it before he finds out? Not to mention that the dead rat has really been boiled and stewed, how can the skin and flesh not rot at all?

She also noticed that several of the troublemakers had made eye contact with the big man and were obviously familiar with each other.

When the shopkeeper calms down, it will soon be found that someone has maliciously framed him.

Zhao Meijiao clenched her fists and gritted her teeth: "This person is too hateful!" Why didn't you expose him just now? ”

Tian Ruyue hooked her lips slightly: "Why did I expose him?" ”

Zhao Meijiao was disappointed: "Why are you like this!" Seeing that he was still not angry, he couldn't help but ask: "I don't believe you are this kind of person, you helped me in "Yipin Embroidery" before...... What is the reason exactly? ”

Tian Ruyue saw that she was really curious, thought about it, and simply said it all for the sake of Master Zhao's face, "The things in the restaurant are all borrowed from the right door's "Yipin Pot", and you can't pay a price for stealing other people's business?" ”

When she left, she saw Chen Lin standing on the second floor of "Yipin Pot", condescendingly looking at the excitement here.

The big man who made trouble must have been hired by her, and in modern times, it is a bad trick used by peer competition, but it is directly effective.

Zhao Meijiao suddenly realized, and her little face fell, "I admired Miss Chen before, although she showed up, she was stronger than most women in this world." Even if my reputation is damaged, I think it's just a malicious slander by others, but now it's ...... Her methods are too inferior! ”

Tian Ruyue listened, noncommittal.

Zhao Meijiao muttered alone for a long time, and when she was about to get home, she suddenly remembered what was going on, and looked at Tian Ruyue embarrassedly: "The money owed...... It may take me a long time to return ....... As he spoke, he blushed with shame.

It's too expensive! At that time, I only cared about face, and completely forgot that she couldn't afford to pay it back at all...... Even if she got married, her father and mother would not be able to marry so much silver.

She shouldn't be greedy for vanity, what should she do now?

Tian Ruyue: "I don't need to return it, just when I repay the master for taking care of me." ”

Zhao Meijiao looked at him in surprise and whispered: "This ...... How can it be? "Obviously dressed ordinarily and her father's apprentice, her family background is definitely not good.

More than 100 taels is a lot of money for him, and every inch of land in the capital is nothing, but if it is enough to buy real estate, marry a wife and have children outside the capital, he doesn't want it because of her father's kindness, but it is really affectionate~~.

In contrast, he became more and more ashamed, and hurriedly took off the jewelry on his body, "Senior brother, it is too precious for me to accept it, and my father and mother will kill me if they know it." ”

Tian Ruyue didn't answer, but she liked the girl's straightforwardness even more, "This silver is a windfall, it was obtained by your father who sold the plaster mold, he gave it to me without taking a penny, I wanted to honor him but was politely refused." It's the same if you accept it on his behalf, if you are embarrassed, don't tell your father and mother. ”

Zhao Meijiao: "...... Thank you, brother. "Because her father is so good to her, she should be happy, but why is she a little disappointed?

The carriage stopped, Tian Ruyue lifted the curtain and glanced at it, "It's here, it's time for you to get off." ”

Zhao Meijiao lifted her skirt and stepped on the stirrups to get out of the car.

Tian Ruyue handed the bought things to the coachman one by one, and the coachman placed them at Zhao Meijiao's feet.

Tian Ruyue said goodbye to Zhao Meijiao and went back to the kiln factory in the carriage.

When I returned to the kiln factory, it was already time for dinner, and Tian Ruyue didn't even go back to the room and queued up to eat. Walking to the old place, I saw the pillars, and they were in a circle, talking while eating.

The pillar squeezed his eyebrows at Chen Jiu: "Second Senior Brother, you see that the stone hasn't come back until now, what am I talking about?" Look at the right eye! ”

Chen Jiu saw Tian Ruyue approaching behind the pillar at a glance, and was immediately a little embarrassed, "Stone, you're back." ”

Zhuzi immediately turned to look at Tian Ruyue, and saw that he was really back, still holding a rice bowl in his hand, and his face was full of surprise: "You didn't stay in Zhao Mansion to eat?" ”

Tian Ruyue looked confused: "Why should I stay in Zhao Mansion to eat?" ”

Chen Jiu glanced at the pillar warningly, but the pillar didn't see it, pestering Tian Ruyue to ask him what he had to do with Zhao Meijiao shopping.

Tian Ruyue said while picking up rice: "My foot almost broke, you are so curious, next time you accompany her." ”

Zhu Zi shook his head again and again, and smiled obscenely: "The master took a fancy to you before handing over the young lady to you, I don't have this honor." ”

The so-called dark under the lamp, Tian Ruyue didn't think about it at all because she was a daughter, and mistakenly thought that Master Zhao valued herself, and the pillar was uncomfortable and jealous.

It's too wrong to say more, so he simply turned his head to look at Chen Jiu and changed the topic: "Why didn't you see Dashan and Xiaolin?" They're home? ”

Chen Jiu's head.

Tian Ruyue smiled: "I'm going to invite you to dinner tomorrow, they have no mouth, haha." ”

That night, when Master Zhao returned home, Tian Ruyue borrowed his room to take a bath secretly, and the next day he went to the street refreshed to buy some daily necessities, the most important thing is to buy a thick quilt, and when he returned to the kiln factory, he spread the thin quilt he had covered before on the Chase bunk and used it as a bed blanket under him.

At noon, Chen Jiu invited them to dinner, saying that they would wait for Xiaolin and them to be lively.

Tian Ruyue changed it to an evening treat.

But I saw that only the mountains came back at dinner time, but Xiaolin was still gone. Tian Ruyue ran to ask Master Zhao who was staying in the room, but saw that he was receiving a guest, a messenger.
