Qian Lizhen was extremely pleased with herself, and even more convinced that she had not hit the wrong person.
It served as a warning to others, and Qian Lizhen continued working. Perhaps it was because of the good slap she had given, but that day's income was half again as much as usual.
The next day, she still called the two brothers over, urging them to hurry up and work, and threatened them firmly: "If you slack off again, I'll slap you again."
He Yi was furious, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only swallow his anger and keep working.
until--
He saw He Chen take a bag of powder out of his pocket.
He froze, grabbed He Chen's hand, and asked, unable to contain his emotions, "What are you doing?"
He Chen answered seriously, "The grass that was pulled from the school playground was sprayed with pesticide yesterday."
He Yi's eyes widened as he stared at him in disbelief.
He Chen untied the bag by the handle, grabbed a handful, and prepared to sprinkle it on the barbecue.
He Yi said sternly, "No! You'll poison him to death."
It was Qian Lizhen who hit him, not the customer. We can't let others get hurt.
He Chen smiled faintly: "Don't worry, Fifth Brother, this little bit won't kill anyone. At most, it will just give you diarrhea."
He Yi felt increasingly insane as he listened to him, and further stopped him: "What makes you so sure it won't poison anyone?"
He Chen's eyes sparkled like stars: "Because I've tested it."
Use himself.
Suddenly, He Yi remembered how He Chen had been intently grinding grass into powder in the kitchen last night. He dipped a little with his fingertip, put it in his mouth, and lied to his mother, saying it was a biology assignment.
"you……"
"Fifth Brother can go and talk to Auntie, but it's best to do it sooner rather than later."
Otherwise, by the time he comes back, he'll have already spilled it all.
He Yi, of course, would never betray his younger brother. With red eyes, he refused to let go and tried to persuade He Chen not to be so extreme, but He Chen easily broke free from his restraints and sprinkled all the powder onto the roasted meat.
Then, he watched as Qian Lizhen took the roast meat and placed it on the guests' table.
Less than half an hour later, Zhu's snack stall was in complete chaos.
The pesticide worked even faster than expected. He Chen had only tasted a tiny bit with his fingertip last night, but what was sprinkled on the barbecue was almost a large dose. Someone suffered food poisoning on the spot and was sent to the hospital.
The others, who just wanted to have diarrhea or hadn't eaten the barbecue yet, aggressively confronted Qian Lizhen, leaving her in a panic.
She didn't know what had happened, but the people who came here were all migrant workers and construction workers from the surrounding area. They were all strong and burly, and their imposing presence when they stood together was enough to scare people to death. Qian Lizhen was almost in tears, and kept explaining that it wasn't a problem with the barbecue.
But nobody listened to her; they just kept demanding she pay them back.
Money was Qian Lizhen's lifeblood, so she was naturally unwilling to pay. Someone couldn't help but get angry and slapped her. In the end, Zhu Qiang stepped in and reluctantly handed over the money, which calmed the storm.
Afterwards, Qian Lizhen, furious, came to settle accounts with them and found the remaining drug powder in He Chen's pocket.
She was furious, her face almost contorted with rage. Qian Lizhen twisted his arm and pulled his ear, roaring, "You little brat, you dare to poison my barbecue!"
He Chen just looked at the half of Qian Lizhen's face that had been slapped. The five finger marks on that half of her face had not yet faded, and it was swollen up, like a bloated pig's head.
He Chen smiled.
Suddenly, Qian Lizhen realized something, abruptly let go of his hand, looked at him in horror, and said, "You wait, I'm going to call the police right now and send you to jail."
He Chen maintained his smile and reminded her, word by word, "Auntie, I'm not an adult yet."
