Chapter 104: Jealousy
What's the difference between this and blatantly slapping him in the face?
He originally wanted to find a sense of existence in this state-owned hotel.
As a result, this person failed to punish himself, but was punished by others instead.
So, the middle-aged man got angry all of a sudden.
How could he endure such humiliation?
What's more, in his eyes, Jiang Xin is just a young girl.
Looks like he's easy to bully.
Anyway, there is no one else around him who can help him now. When some people speak, they all agree with him. It can be seen that people around him also think that what he says makes sense.
It's just that this little girl just won't listen to advice, so today, he must help the little girl's parents to educate her well and let her understand what it means that every grain of rice is hard-earned.
The middle-aged man's expression changed instantly. When he looked at Jiang Xin, his eyes were full of fire:
"You little bitch, I think you really don't know what's good for you. You don't want to drink when I'm toasting you, right? Today, I have to teach you a lesson on behalf of your parents."
As he said this, the middle-aged man dropped the chopsticks in his hand onto the table with a clatter. The loud noise attracted the diners around to put down their chopsticks and look at the situation here.
Jiang Xin frowned in displeasure. She didn't expect that this middle-aged man was so good at taking advantage of others.
The few words she said just now were enough to give him face.
How could he have the nerve to say what he just said?
Jiang Xin was instantly angry. Did she really think she was easy to bully?
Jiang Xin sneered and said to the middle-aged man:
"You are qualified to educate me?"
"I have plenty of money in my pocket, I can spend it however I want. Who are you to point fingers at me?"
"I don't want to pay attention to you, so when you are talking, I don't want to talk to me. I don't want to conflict with you, so as not to waste my time."
"In the end, you are just trying to show off to me. Isn't that a bit too unreasonable?"
"What I just said was very clear. Everyone has their own way of living. I come to the restaurant alone to order food. It's not like I can't pay. I can eat whatever I want."
“Don’t use your financial ability to measure the financial strength of others, just like the dish on your table today.”
"You may earn 30 yuan a month, but others may earn 100 yuan a month."
"The income levels are so different, so when it comes to spending, their spending power is naturally different."
"The poor have their own way of living, and the rich have their own way of living. The dish you ordered is within your affordability."
"Then by the same token, the three dishes and one soup I ordered are within my own tolerance. You have no right to tell me what to do."
"I have money in my pocket, I can spend it however I want, you have no right to interfere."
"And to the people around here, I have made my words very clear. Do you understand what I mean?"
The people around had been watching the situation here. After hearing Jiang Xin's analysis, they all nodded.
After all, looking at the clothes this little girl is wearing, she looks like a wealthy person from home.
Therefore, if someone can come to a state-owned restaurant and pack up three dishes and a soup in one go, his family must be quite wealthy.
So they are really rich and don’t lack the money for food.
Besides, they have now come to their senses. They were just led astray by the middle-aged man, and their thoughts followed his train of thought.
It's true that this girl came here to buy vegetables, but she wants to take them home to eat.
They didn't even say how many people there are in their family who need to feed them.
So, how can they say that ordering three dishes is a waste? There might be many people in their home waiting for food. It is possible.
Therefore, they were too stupid just now, so they were led by others.
After they reacted, they found that there was nothing wrong with what Jiang Xin said.
If people have the conditions, why should they live a hard life? There is no need to endure hardship without any effort.
So, it is better not to meddle in other people's business too much. In the end, they will end up getting slapped in the face.
"Yes, yes, little girl, there is nothing wrong with what you said. Everyone's consumption level is there. If you have the means, why would you want to eat bad food?"
"That's unnecessary. With that level of economic status, why would you still want to live a hard life? It's our fault. We were all led astray by him just now, so we followed him and blamed you."
"Yes, yes, we apologize to you. It took me a while to realize that the girl just told the waiter to take the food away, right?"
"So, she didn't plan to eat here at all. Maybe she wanted to buy the food back and eat with her family. So in that case, what's the big deal if she orders a few more dishes?"
"Yes, yes. After all this time, we were fooled by this guy. We were almost going to follow his train of thought and scold the girl!"
"Looking at it this way, what did the girl do wrong? She just came to the state-owned restaurant to buy a meal for her family, and yet she is being scolded by us like this."
"That's right. Look at the dish on his table. It's all alone. I guess he's reluctant to spend money on it."
"It's not that I look down on the poor. After all, our family conditions are basically the same. I can't pick on others based on whether they are poor or not."
"But he was scolding the girl like this. I guess he felt unbalanced when he saw that she only ordered four dishes, so he said that to her."
Basically, these people spoke with one voice from the beginning, but now all of them have begun to speak in Jiang Xin's favor.
The middle-aged man immediately broke out in sweat. After all, his little thoughts had been guessed by others.
The words these people said really touched his heart and hurt him.
The reason why he did this was because he targeted Jiang Xin, a young girl.
After all, isn't it just because Jiang Xin is young and easy to bully?
This person just can't stand others living better than himself.
