"Yes, I wrote it." Bei Yutang responded frankly.
Beilin looked at the woman in front of him. He had never seen her before. Why would someone in the world have handwriting so similar to his sister's?
Du Lin felt a pang in his heart when he saw him staring at people.
Could this guy have some improper thoughts about me?!
That woman is a married woman with a child.
"General Bei, can you tell who is telling the truth and who is lying?" Bei Yutang asked.
Bei Lin suppressed his shock, "This certificate is real."
The shopkeeper suddenly became anxious, "General Bei, what are you doing..."
Bei Lin cast a cold gaze at him. "Shut up. You just said she wrote it. That shows you were watching her write the document, which is why you can say that with such certainty."
"That's because the certificate is in her hands. Since it's forged, it must be her doing." The shopkeeper argued stubbornly.
Xiao Moer got down from the chair, "I can write too."
"I can do it too." Xue Qian clasped his fists towards Bei Lin.
Xiao Moer continued, "Women are generally quite seldom literate. The fact that the shopkeeper ignored us and insisted that she was my mother speaks volumes."
Beilin looked at him, "Do you have anything else to say?"
The diners around couldn't stand it anymore and started to speak out.
"Boss, I saw it clearly before. You are not only breaking your promise but also deliberately framing me."
"That's not very kind of you. We all saw it clearly."
"That's right. You're taking advantage of them because they're from outside your hometown and want to make them suffer in silence."
"No one in the shop is as bad-mouthed as you when it comes to business."
…
The people around the shopkeeper Bei were blushing as they talked.
"General Bei, Master Du, I..."
Du Lin waved his hand. "Don't say that. Do you think we're stupid? We're easy to fool?"
"I wouldn't dare. How could I possibly think that?"
"I don't think so, but that's what you did." Du Lin looked at the shopkeeper unhappily, "Shopkeeper, you are really very bold. You want to use me and Beilin."
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he fell to his knees. "I know I was wrong. I beg Master Du and General Bei to forgive me this time. It's all my fault for being so confused."
Beilin glanced at the shopkeeper and said, "Let's go."
Du Lin was surprised, "Just let him go like that?"
Looking at his expression, Du Lin sighed, "You're lucky."
The shopkeeper was about to apologize when he heard Bei Yutang shout, "General Bei, please stay."
Beilin stopped and turned around, "Is there anything else?"
"Meeting is fate. Since General Bei is here, I wonder if you would be willing to do me the honor of sharing a seat with me. This is the perfect place to watch the dragon lanterns. It only comes once a year, and it would be a shame to miss it."
"Brother, this is the best place to see the dragon lantern."
"This only happens once a year, don't miss it."
"Brother, you should hurry up. If you miss it, you'll have to wait a year."
Beilin looked at the woman in front of him. If her appearance was not very different from his sister's and her age was not right, he would have doubted whether she was...her.
"Okay." Beilin agreed.
After Beilin and Dulin sat down, the teahouse returned to normal.
The waiter brought some good tea and snacks, and said with an apologetic smile, "These tea and snacks are our boss's treats. We apologize to you all."
Du Lin waved his hand and the waiter hurried away.
