Marrying Mrs. Hou and making a living by relying on her circle of food friends

Chapter 13 Beware of Revenge
Vegetable vendor Lao Li looked at Gu Yunyue's actions and couldn't help but feel grateful in his heart.

Zhang San is used to doing evil here, and everyone has long been accustomed to it. He originally thought that doing more would be better than doing less, so he paid the protection fee. Who knew that Zhang San became more and more arrogant in collecting money, and those who did not pay the full amount would be punished at every turn. Smashing vegetables and destroying stalls.

Gu Yunyue dropped the wooden stick and patted the dust on his hands. He was also surprised that these three big men left like this, and took a long breath.Then he bent down to help Lao Li clean up the dilapidated vegetable stall.

"Girl, I can't thank you enough for today." Lao Li looked at the smashed vegetable stall, his heart was full of distress, and he forced a grateful smile.

Gu Yunyue looked at the ruined dishes with regret in her heart and said: "No, no, it's just a little effort. But who is this Zhang San to be so arrogant?"

Lao Li sighed, while picking out the vegetables that were still intact from the vegetable stall, and said: "Zhang San is the nephew of the county magistrate. With the support of the county magistrate, he acts fearlessly. In this morning market, Acting arrogantly."

"So that's it," Gu Yunyue nodded.

No wonder Zhang San acted so domineeringly, but now that Gu Yunyue thought about what had just happened, she felt scared.She was indeed acting too recklessly today. If those three big men hadn't been wary, she, Gu Yunyue, might have died on the street.

Just as he was thinking about it, Lao Li suddenly handed over a cloth bag and said, "Girl, don't dislike it. We grow these vegetables at home. I, a vegetable vendor, can't repay today's kindness, so just accept this little gift." "

This move startled Gu Yunyue, and she quickly waved her hand to refuse, "How can I accept it? It's just a little effort." Gu Yunyue also knew that if he didn't accept it, Lao Li would insist again and again, and he was still in shock when he called her. Guo'er said, "Guo'er, please estimate how much these dishes cost. Give the money to Lao Li."

Guo'er came back to her senses after hearing this, and walked tremblingly to Gu Yunyue, not thinking about how much the food was worth.He hurriedly asked: "Girl, are you okay?"

Gu Yunyue waved her hand and said no, and repeated what she just said.

Guo'er had completely come to her senses, and now she just wanted to end the matter quickly. She took out a piece of silver from her purse and quietly stuffed it into Lao Li's arms, saying: "This stall owner, you better keep the money, otherwise we won't have any of this dish." I won’t ask for it either. Don’t be polite to our young lady, just take the money quickly and don’t let anyone with intentions see it.”

As Guoer said this, Lao Li looked around and saw many pairs of eyes staring at them.No longer trying to shirk, I picked up a few more acceptable vegetables and stuffed them into cloth bags.Lao Li handed over the thing again and warned: "Girl, please don't be impulsive next time you encounter something like this. In order to avoid being retaliated by that Zhang San, girl, please leave here quickly."

Gu Yunyue also had this intention. She originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to take a walk in the city, but after what happened with Zhang Sanba and Lao Li, she lost all interest and was ready to go home.

Guo'er and Gu Yunyue said goodbye to Lao Li and headed back home.

Gu Yunyue regretted not going out in a carriage.She had just been pushed to the ground by Zhang San and bruised her palm, and her right knee was also in burning pain.Guo'er was holding the vegetables she bought from Lao Li in her arms, but she couldn't support Gu Yunyue, so Gu Yunyue limped toward the Hou Mansion with strength.

"It can't be done, it can't be done." As soon as he reached the side door of the Hou Mansion, Gu Yunyue sat down on the edge of the side door, panting and patting his chest, "I have to take a rest."

Guo'er gave Gu Yunyue a helpless look and told her to leave it alone, but she didn't listen to her.

However, Guo'er still admired Gu Yunyue's courage to act for justice today.She clicked the door knocker and comforted Gu Yunyue, "This side door is still some distance away from Chengyuan where we live. Madam, I'll rest here for a while. I'll ask someone else to carry the sedan, and by the way, I'll ask a doctor to take a look. Look."

Gu Yunyue was noncommittal. She really didn't have the strength to speak now, so she could only nod.

The guard opened the door very quickly, but when he saw the embarrassed look of his wife Hou, he was shocked and hurriedly called for a sedan chair and helped Gu Yunyue up.

It felt good not to have to continue walking. Gu Yunyue leaned behind her
On the soft cushions, before taking a breath, I heard a familiar voice asking: "Is this Mrs. Hou in this sedan?"
