"Uncle, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really didn't have any other ideas, I just wanted to come in and steal the girl's seasoning, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Chef Wang kept apologizing.
Jingxu was about to raise his foot again, but the shopkeeper quickly stopped him: "Sir, calm down. I didn't discipline him well, but after all, he called me brother-in-law. Let's see what needs to be done to calm you down."
"Whatever compensation you require, we will do our best to satisfy it. We only ask that you spare his life, or I will have a hard time explaining to my wife."
The shopkeeper was filled with hatred and anxiety, begging with tears streaming down his face.
At this moment, Chef Wang also discovered the problem.
He also hurriedly got up, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Guo Xiao suddenly spoke up: "Since Chef Wang has already realized his mistake, don't hold on to him anymore. Just ask the shopkeeper to compensate him a little and let it go."
Jing Xu looked at him unkindly and said in a deep voice, "This is my family's business. Why are you, an outsider, trying to be a pushover?"
"Or, who do you think you are to be the head of my family?"
Guo Xiao was suddenly choked and couldn't breathe, but what the other person said was right.
Mr. Zhang frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything: "Guo Xiao, this has nothing to do with you, why are you butting in?"
"Send him to the government office. What would happen if Qing Yuan and I didn't know martial arts, or if we fell into a deep sleep?"
Hearing Qiu Yinong's words, Chef Wang collapsed on the ground in fear, crying and hugging the shopkeeper's thighs: "Brother-in-law, I know I was wrong, brother-in-law, I know I was wrong."
"Brother-in-law, please save me, save me."
"I don't want to go to jail. I don't want to go to jail."
The shopkeeper was so disappointed that he said angrily, "If you don't want to go to jail, why did you break into the girl's room in the middle of the night?"
"You're really brave! Didn't they show you the way? If you go to Taohua Village to buy soy sauce, they'll give you the recipe?"
"You know why you broke into a girl's room in the middle of the night. I knelt and begged, but this is all your own fault."
"I can't help you." With that, the shopkeeper left with a dark face.
Chef Wang was still wailing, waking up the neighbors.
Jing Xu picked him up and Guo Xiao's pupils shrank slightly.
How could this skinny guy lift such a fat person so easily?
Mr. Zhang whispered a few words to a servant, and the servant quickly ran out.
Jingxu and Qiu Maocai took Chef Wang to the town government office. The headman was awakened by the sudden sound of drums and stood up cursing.
The night watchman opened the gate first, walked out with an unhappy face, and scolded: "Why are you beating the drum of injustice in the middle of the night?"
"Everyone is full of complaints. No wonder Qingfeng Town, which is only a day's journey from Qingquan Town, can live in such poverty."
Jingxu said with disdain.
Just as the bailiff was about to say something, a token was thrown at him.
The bailiff took it and saw the words "Showa-era Imperial Order" written on it. He was so frightened that he knelt down instantly.
No matter who this person is, the fact that he holds the imperial decree from the *** government proves that he is from the *** government.
"Sir, what brings you here in the middle of the night?"
Jing Xu pushed Chef Wang forward and said, "This man is Chef Wang from the Qingfeng Town Inn. He broke into my sister's room in the middle of the night and was caught by the maid."
"Let your chieftain handle this matter."
The yamen runner handed the order to Jingxu respectfully and quickly responded, "Don't worry, sir."
"Well, we'll leave first." Jingxu stood here for a long time, but the headman didn't come out. He guessed that he was also a corrupt official.
When he returns to Beijing, he will have a good talk with the Minister of Personnel.
The pavilion chief, whom he had never met before, did not know that his official career had come to an end.
Jingxu returned to the inn, where a waiter was waiting. Upon seeing them return, he respectfully escorted them upstairs.
Just as the door was about to close, the servant sent by Mr. Zhang came back.
"Wait." The servant said quickly.
The guy stopped closing the door and asked curiously, "When did you go out?"
The servant smiled at him and said, "I just went out with that gentleman."
"Thank you very much." He said and ran upstairs.
The guy muttered a few words and closed the door.
The servant ran to Mr. Zhang's door, knocked, and the door opened quickly.
Mr. Zhang was sitting there drinking tea, with Guo Xiao and a guard standing beside him.
"How is it?" Mr. Zhang put down the tea bowl and asked the servant.
The servant quickly told Master Zhang what he had seen: "The yamen runner was very angry when the drum was beaten, but after the master threw a token over, the runner's expression changed instantly."
"They became extremely respectful, but I didn't see what they were saying, and I don't know what they were saying."
"Okay, go down and rest!" Mr. Zhang waved his hand.
The servant quickly withdrew. Master Zhang looked at Guo Xiao and said, "Guo Xiao, your father and I have been friends for many years. I don't want you to offend someone you shouldn't offend."
"You shouldn't have interrupted tonight."
"After all, it concerns the reputation of the girl."
Guo Xiao also knew he was wrong and quickly apologized: "Uncle Zhang, I was reckless."
"Well, I'm glad to know. Okay, go back and rest!"
Guo Xiao nodded and left the house.
Mr. Zhang was also helped by the guard to lie back on the bed, and the guard slept in the outer room.
That night, except for the shopkeeper, most people slept well.
The chef who was urgently called in to help prepared breakfast early in the morning. At dawn, Qiu Yinong and others got up and checked out.
