Border Cook

Chapter 58: More than exposed
He's already so embarrassed, and you still want him to pay?

This Xia guy is really obsessed with money!
Sun Gousheng stuck out his neck, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

"If you don't give me the money, don't even think about leaving today!" Xia Mingyue shouted again.

The voice was not loud, but it was full of momentum and carried a very sharp feeling.

Sun Gousheng was shocked and when he looked at Xia Mingyue, he met her cold, serious and threatening eyes.

How come this look is exactly the same as the one from the last time when he wanted to break his wrist?
The oppressive feeling in his memory came over him, causing Sun Gousheng to shiver inexplicably. He took out a copper coin from his pocket and handed it to Xia Mingyue, "That's enough!"

"I need another ten cents to buy this bowl." Xia Mingyue handed over the bowl.

There was a fly in the bowl, and it makes me sick just thinking about it. I will definitely not use it again.

Sun Gousheng jumped up.

It would be fine if he just paid for the wontons, but he actually asked me to buy a bowl. That’s too much!

No matter how powerful the other party is, she is just a thin young lady. He is a thug who makes a living by collecting debts. How can he be afraid of her?
Sun Gousheng gritted his teeth and said, "So what if I don't buy it?"

"If you don't buy it, you can't leave!" Someone in the crowd couldn't stand Sun Gousheng's rogue look anymore and shouted loudly.

"Stop talking so much nonsense. In my opinion, just report to the authorities and see you at the government office!"

"I'm going to look for the yamen runner..."

A good man does not suffer immediate losses.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Sun Gousheng, who prided himself on being flexible, took out another ten cents and gave them to Xia Mingyue.

"Let's go." Xia Mingyue took back the rolling pin.

"Hmph!" Sun Gousheng left angrily.

Tian Dazhuang also followed behind, but before leaving, he did not forget to take the bowl from Xia Mingyue's hand.

It’s only ten cents each. If you wash them at home, they can still be used. Don’t waste them.

The two men fled in panic, and a burst of laughter immediately broke out at Xia Ji's stall.

After all, the most interesting thing is when the bad guys escape.

Xia Mingyue also greeted them with a smile, "I'm sorry for causing such an unpleasant situation today and disturbing everyone's food. I'll add some for everyone. I hope everyone will understand and thank you for helping us out just now."

As he spoke, the spoon for adding food reached into every bowl.

Add four or five wontons to the wonton bowl, half a piece of cold skin to the cold skin bowl, and if you buy cakes, pay two copper coins less.

Xia Mingyue was so generous that the diners present felt relieved and comforted her, "Madam Xia, don't worry. With us here, no one will dare to cause trouble again in the future."

"That's right. If anyone makes trouble again, I'll beat them until they cry for their parents!"

"With your skinny body, you're still hitting others. I'm afraid that person will knock out two of your front teeth with one punch. I don't know who will cry for help then."

"What's the big deal? If one skinny guy doesn't work, then we have more people. I just don't believe that this bad guy can bully us good people."

"That's a nice thing to say..."

Xia Ji returned to its earlier liveliness and laughter.

Here, Sun Gousheng, as he was holding his breath, had been walking quickly through two alleys with his head down, and then he slowed down his pace a little.

"Brother Gousheng, slow down..." Tian Dazhuang was jogging behind him, out of breath, "Wait for me."

Seeing that he was still holding the bowl in his hand, Sun Gousheng kicked him angrily, "How dare you hold this bowl!"

Something that is more than enough to succeed but more than enough to fail!
If Tian Dazhuang hadn't betrayed him at the critical moment, he could have still had a good talk with Xia. However, Tian Dazhuang's words betrayed him completely.

It's really infuriating!
Tian Dazhuang was kicked unexpectedly, and the bowl in his hand fell to the ground with a thud. The bowl broke into three pieces, and the wontons in the bowl also fell to the ground, mixed with the soup and soil, and it was impossible to tell what they were originally.

Yeah!

Tian Dazhuang turned around several times in pain, stretching his hand again and again, trying to pick up the wonton.

But obviously it no longer can.

Tian Dazhuang sighed.

I originally thought that a fly landing on my head was no big deal. Who hasn’t eaten a few bugs while sleeping?

Just bring it back, wash it thoroughly, and cook it in the pot. You can eat it with your eyes closed.

This time there is no hope at all.

"Brother Gousheng, don't be angry." Tian Dazhuang tried not to look at the wonton that fell on the ground, and comforted Sun Gousheng, "Just think of it as bad luck this time."

Doesn’t he know that he’s unlucky today?

And it was all caused by you, Tian Dazhuang!
Seeing that Sun Gousheng was still furious and didn't even want to pay attention to him, Tian Dazhuang thought for a moment and made a suggestion, "If Brother Gousheng really wants to vent his anger, why not go and talk to the boss?"

"I'm afraid the boss is unwilling to stand up for me." Sun Gousheng curled his lips, "The boss has become more and more timid and cautious nowadays. I'm afraid that if I open my mouth, he will scold me first."

"Why don't you just make it sound more serious?" Tian Dazhuang disagreed and moved closer to Sun Gousheng, "You're just like this..."

After hearing this, Sun Gousheng's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly, patting Tian Dazhuang's shoulder and laughing, "You are the one who has the idea, let's do as you say!"

"Right." Tian Dazhuang was very proud, but he added, "But can Brother Gousheng wait a few days before telling the boss about this?"

"Why?" Sun Gousheng was puzzled.

He had already suffered humiliation twice, and he couldn't endure it for even a day, let alone several days.

"I want to buy two more bowls of wontons to eat these days..."

I definitely won’t be able to eat it in the future, so I have to eat a few more bowls in these few days.

Sun Gousheng, "..."

What a good-for-nothing, why is he looked down upon so much?

Sun Gousheng curled his lips, "Since you gave me advice, I'll do as you say, just..."

"What?"

"How about you bring a bowl for me when you go buy it?"

"……become……"

Because of the trouble caused by Sun Gousheng and the other two, a lot of extra food was given out today. Just after noon, all the food on the stall was sold out, and they had to close up and go home.

"Thanks to these two bastards, I can close the stall much earlier today." Mrs. Lu cursed while she was busy.

"It's not a good idea to go back early. There isn't much to do in the afternoon and we can still rest for a while." Xia Mingyue said with a smile.

"My purse is 30% empty!" Mrs. Lu was distressed.

The most painful thing in the world is to do the same business but make less money.

The most painful thing was that Xia Mingyue, the owner of the house, didn't care at all.

Mrs. Lu felt more and more heartbroken and tried hard to turn her head away, not looking at Xia Mingyue's face that looked calm and unconcerned about the loss of money.

I’ve seen too much and I feel so upset!
