Chapter 133: Forcing the Troublemakers Back
He handed it to the man and said, "Take the silver and get out! Don't let me see you on this street again." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, the man reached out to take the money, but was held down by Chang Xixi.
"My money is not so easy to take! If you take my money, I will ask you for an explanation. For example, where did those big cockroaches in your sleeves come from?"
After Chang Xixi finished speaking, Renwen stepped forward and grabbed the man's sleeve, and a lot of cockroaches and other things poured out of the sleeve at an angle.
The man was speechless in an instant!
He wanted to leave in shame, but Renwen grabbed him by the collar and said, "Where are you running to? You still want to eat in our restaurant? You don't want to live anymore!"
The man spoke tremblingly, pointing to the pile of things on the ground, and said, "This is all a false accusation by you. You think I'm easy to bully. I have no backing, so you bully me like this!"
It seemed that what he said was right. Chang Xixi saw through it all the first time she saw him!
If a rich young man saw something here, he would definitely handle it differently. They still have basic courtesy and their quality is still there.
Generally, there will not be a big quarrel, unless the one is particularly domineering.
Therefore, this person clearly wanted to extort money, thinking that she would be easy to bully just because the widow of this popular teahouse belonged to her. Indeed, she was easy to bully, but since this person happened to be Chang Xixi, she was not so easy to bully.
"Yeah?"
Chang Xixi said with a half-smile, "If you have the guts, why don't you...eat all these cockroaches here, and I'll eat all the cakes. If you dare, I'll give you twenty taels of silver, all of which is yours. From now on, all your expenses at the teahouse will be charged to my account!"
"you?"
This person didn't know whether Chang Xixi was real or fake! He tried it out and looked at the cockroaches on the ground with a look of disgust between his brows.
Chang Xixi was also betting, betting on whether he dared to eat it. If he dared to eat it, she would have another set of excuses, and if he didn't dare to eat it, she would have another set of excuses.
In the end, this person still couldn't bring himself to do it.
Chang Xixi smiled and said, "In that case, I have no choice but to take you to the government office. I believe that the adults will naturally have their own explanation. I want you to explain everything exactly why you are here."
"You, you really dare to report it to the police?"
"Why wouldn't I dare to report this to the police? I run this shop legitimately. And you're here to blackmail me... Of course I dare to go, not because I don't dare."
This person instantly became intimidated! He didn't dare to go, nor did he dare to speak. But as the saying goes, money makes the world go round, and this person came today to make money.
Looking at the money in the shopkeeper's hand, he felt itchy in his heart, as he had wanted it for a long time. He made up his mind and grabbed a cockroach from the ground and put it into his mouth!
This scene shocked everyone present!
The people all exclaimed in amazement. This guy really dared to eat it! After he swallowed the cockroach, Renwen handed Chang Xixi the cake that had been replaced long ago, and she ate it too.
After Chang Xixi took a sip of tea and looked at the man again, he said, "You can eat cockroaches and haven't died of poisoning, which means that what you eat is not poisonous and is edible. And my pastries are also edible, completely edible and can fill your stomach. So there's no problem putting your cockroaches in my pastries! The problem is that you want to use them to blackmail me for money. That's not right... Do you agree or disagree with these words?"
"I……"
This person was completely bewildered by Chang Xixi's rhetoric! What on earth was she talking about? He didn't bring the cockroach! It was yours! How did it become his?
"What? If you have something to say, can't you just say it nicely?" Chang Xixi took the initiative and said.
"That cockroach isn't mine. I found it in one of your cakes. I'm asking for compensation. You just said you'd give me twenty taels of silver if I ate the cockroach. Are you going to go back on your word now?"
Chang Xixi smiled, stood up, and said to the people around him: "Tell me, is this guy crazy? Is there such a kind person? I gave him money just to let him eat a cockroach. Twenty taels of silver is enough for a farmer to eat for a year, at least and more. Are you stupid?"
Because Chang Xixi spoke very quietly when she said those words just now, many people did not hear it. Only Renwen and the shopkeeper beside her, and this person heard it.
The people were discussing whether this man was a fool and that there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world.
So... no one believed what he said and looked at him as if he were a fool!
The man left immediately.
After Chang Xixi saw that person leave, she also dismissed the people who were watching the excitement. She even held a free tea-drinking event in the teahouse.
The next day.
It wasn't noon yet, Chang Xixi was feeding lunch to Xiaotuanzi, and Renwen came again. It was the guy from yesterday who was causing trouble.
They ordered a lot of things today, all kinds of food. After the waiter turned around, they ate everything and added something to their teacups this time.
That thing was a bug, and a very small one at that.
Many of the teas in the teahouse are high-quality teas. Why is it called high-quality? Because when the tea leaves enter the teahouse, Chang Xixi hires people to sort them out. The tea stems and other damaged tea leaves are all picked out. Are there any insects?
I’m afraid he’s here to cause trouble!
Renwen stammered, "It's the guy from yesterday. He's back with a group of people. He must be here to cause trouble!"
"Let's go together. It's the same as before. Liang Ming, you stay with me. Li Da, you stay home, and Xiaohong, you stay home with the child. Don't open the door until I come back. No matter who comes, just tell them I'm not here, okay? Even if it's someone from the Zhou Mansion, or even... Lord Lu, understand?"
"yes."
Xiaohong realized the seriousness of the problem and took her child indoors.
Li Da also gathered his brothers and formed a protective circle around the Gu Mansion. He knew that Chang Xixi was trying to attract the attention of the young master and was deliberately on guard.
What we are afraid of is that the person causing the trouble has connections with people outside, and then... they use a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain and send the person in.
Li Da has always known what Chang Xixi is worried about.
…
The people rushing to the teahouse saw that the door was surrounded by a circle of people again. It seemed that they were just here to watch the fun.
She walked over with a smile and said to the people around her, "Today, the teahouse will give you some fun. Renwen, place your bets for me. It's a done deal. No regrets allowed."
