Chapter 163: Taking Action
"Get out of here now, a bunch of beggars, don't think you can sneak in just by changing your skin."
"you……"
Chen Xue and the others were so angry that their faces turned blue. If Chen's mother hadn't held Chen Xue back, she would have rushed out and slapped the waiter in the face.
"etc!"
At this moment, the gorgeous man who had just walked in beside Chen Xue suddenly came back and called out to them.
The waiter's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Mr. Li was going to help these beggars?
But Mr. Li is not such a person!
Mr. Li walked up to Chen Xue's family and looked them over. "How about this? You and your daughter will serve me together, and I'll take you to the restaurant to see the world."
The waiter heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that.
The passersby on the side started to make a noise, "Hahaha, Mr. Li, you already have eighteen concubines. How can you handle having two mother and daughter serving you?"
"Humph, whether I can eat it or not is none of your business!"
Mr. Li looked at Mr. Chen and said condescendingly, "I'll give you ten taels of silver, and you sell me the mother and daughter."
"Sell your sister!"
For the first time, Mr. Chen exploded and lost his gentle demeanor. He rushed over and kicked Mr. Li to the ground.
You can insult him, but you cannot insult his wife and daughter.
"Stop hitting me, don't hit me anymore!"
Seeing this, Chen Xue hurried forward and pulled her father. She said she was pulling her father, but in fact she was just supporting her, or even helping her.
Seeing that Mr. Li was trying to get up, Chen Xue kicked him to the ground.
"Help...someone's being assaulted!"
Mr. Li never thought that someone would dare to attack him on his own territory, so he didn't bring his servants with him when he went out. As a result, he met a tough guy today.
So, he could only hold his head and scream for help.
The waiter translated it immediately, rushed over to help, and scolded.
"Stop! Are you so bold as to attack Mr. Li?"
Chen Xue stopped and took a step back, "Okay, then go help him!"
The waiter glared at Chen Xue and went to support Mr. Li.
Unexpectedly, the back felt a sudden pressure and the whole person fell to the ground.
"You're not a good person either, you look down on others!"
It turned out that Chen Xue just asked him to support her on purpose.
Anyway, Mr. Li has been beaten, so what else is missing?
So, he deliberately attacked the waiter when he was squatting.
After Chen Xue kicked the waiter down, she turned around and looked at Lord Chen, who also turned around and looked at her.
Then, the two of them raised their feet and kicked the waiter tacitly.
"Ouch, stop hitting me, it hurts so much!"
Hearing the waiter's plea for mercy, old man Chen Xue did not show any mercy.
"Okay, stop fighting. If you keep fighting, something bad will happen."
Chen's mother, who was standing aside, also came over. She was the one who really tried to pull Lord Chen and Chen Xue aside, and persuaded them to stop fighting.
Of course, during the pulling process, Chen's mother's feet "accidentally" touched Mr. Li and the waiter, but that was none of her business.
It was just an accident.
"Girl, be careful!"
As a loyal maid, Xiaodie naturally has to protect the young lady.
So Xiaodie stepped on Xiaoer who was trying to grab Chen Xue's ankle.
"ah!"
The waiter's heart-wrenching scream startled Chen Xue and the others, and they stopped immediately.
"Walk!"
At this time, Master Chen took his feet off the waiter with a sigh of relief and said to Chen Xue and the others.
Although beating someone up feels good, the consequences are serious.
"You want to run away after hitting someone? Don't you think too highly of me?"
The restaurant owner walked over with a gloomy face, and behind him a group of guards holding sticks surrounded Lord Chen and his companions.
"Everyone is responsible for their own actions!" Lord Chen stretched out his hand to protect his wife, daughter and Xiaodie behind him, and looked at the restaurant owner.
"snort!"
However, the restaurant owner snorted coldly, "A man interrupts..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw a group of yamen runners rushing towards him on the street. It was obvious that someone had reported to the police.
The guards hesitated and looked at their boss. "Don't worry about them. Keep going. I'll take care of the rest!"
"stop!"
Suddenly, an angry shout was heard.
Everyone saw the yamen runners hurriedly walking towards them, accompanied by a man in official uniform.
The restaurant owner's heart skipped a beat and he quickly told his men to stop.
He didn't expect that this matter would alarm the county magistrate. Normally, the county magistrate would not be able to intervene in such a trivial matter.
Could it be because the person who was beaten was Mr. Li?
But that's not right.
Although Mr. Li's family is rich, they have no relationship with the county magistrate.
I have tried many times to establish a relationship with the county magistrate, but I have no way.
It is said that the county magistrate was transferred from the capital, and he may be transferred back to the capital soon.
How could he not curry favor with such a promising official?
But the county magistrate was fair and selfless, and he was repeatedly rejected when he wanted to show his filial piety.
So, as it was a rare opportunity to see the county magistrate, he quickly forced a smile and trotted over.
"Lord Tan has arrived..."
However, Lord Tan interrupted his hypocritical greeting and said, "Tell me, what happened?"
"this……"
Although he knew Mr. Tan's temperament, he still didn't react for a while.
"Master Tan, help!"
Mr. Li, with a bruised face and nose, ran over with tears and snot, pointing at Chen Xue and others with an angry look on his face.
"Master Tan, please help me. These unruly people actually beat me..."
As he spoke, he began to confuse right and wrong, saying that he felt that Chen Xue's family was pitiful, so he invited them into the restaurant. As a result, Chen Xue and her family not only did not accept their invitation, but also attacked them.
Lord Tan naturally would not just listen to his one-sided story, but the waiter who was beaten nearby also rushed over.
"That's right, I went to help Mr. Li, but who knew they would beat me up too? They even stepped on my arm and broke it..."
The waiter's face was swollen like a pig's head, and one of his front teeth was missing. He looked very miserable, and he kept covering his arm.
"nonsense……"
Chen Xue couldn't help herself when she saw them confusing right and wrong.
However, Master Chen pulled her back and shook his head slightly, "Don't worry, this Master won't believe their lies!"
Although Chen Xue didn't know why her father was so confident, she still chose to believe it.
"Where is Boss Wang?" Lord Tan did not make a decision immediately, but looked at the owner of the restaurant next to him.
Boss Wang looked at Mr. Tan with an expressionless face and had no idea what he was thinking. After thinking about it, he decided to side with Mr. Li.
After all, judging from their clothes, those people don’t seem to have any background, so it would be more beneficial to make friends with Mr. Li.
Maybe Lord Tan really came here for Mr. Li.
"They're right." Boss Li pointed at the people around him and said, "They all saw it!"
The people around no longer had the courage they had before and all lowered their heads.
"snort!"
Lord Tan snorted coldly and turned to walk towards Chen Xue and others.
Boss Wang and his companions were stunned, not understanding what Lord Tan meant.
However, the next scene made them stare with wide eyes.
Master Tan walked up to Master Chen and bowed respectfully, "Disciple Tan Shuxian greets the teacher!"
"teacher?"
Boss Wang and others were so shocked that they were speechless. Even Mr. Li's legs went limp and he fell to the ground, his face pale.
"It's over!"
