Chapter 65: Marry a fool?
Gu Qingshi looked at Boss Chen and Boss Lady Lao Liang, who both had livid faces. "Facts speak louder than words. Today, Gu's Kitchen has proven its innocence. I hope this is the last time you slander me. If you do this again in the future, I will sue you for defamation."
After this incident, Gu Qingshi has completely established his foothold in the catering industry in Mingchang County, and it also makes people know that Gu’s Kitchen will not be bullied by just anyone.
Gu Qingshi said loudly, "Gu's Kitchen is reopening today. Because everyone was frightened these past two days, all dishes will be discounted by 20% for the next three days."
When they heard about the 20% discount, everyone applauded. Compared to everyone else's excitement, Boss Chen and his companions seemed out of place.
The situation was hopeless, and amid everyone's scolding, Boss Chen was about to leave in disgrace, and the boss's wife looked at him with great resentment.
She hated Gu Qingshi to death. Seeing her so glorious made her feel more uncomfortable than killing her. When she saw the staff had left, she didn't dare to wash and couldn't help but started to forcefully explain herself.
"Who knows if you bribed someone and falsified the results. The hospital's results were also the same. I see you go to the hospital every day. Maybe you are colluding with others to deceive people."
Gu Qingshi sneered and was about to speak when he heard someone say, "You're still biting me at this hour. It's endless, right?"
Everyone looked towards the person who was speaking, and discovered Sister Wang, who had been hiding in the crowd, and Wang Dazhi beside her.
Gu Qingshi was very grateful that she spoke up for him. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Boss Chen gasp, "You... you are..."
"It's me, Boss Chen." Sister Wang smiled. "Today is so disappointing. Fortunately, I went to your restaurant with my husband before, and he often invites people to eat at your restaurant."
Boss Chen's already stiff face seemed to be about to cry.
He felt bad when the boss lady made random accusations just now, and now he felt really desperate when he saw Sister Wang.
"I didn't do it well. I will definitely correct it when I go back." He promised politely, which made several bosses dissatisfied. "Why are you so polite?"
Boss Chen gritted his teeth and whispered, "Look carefully at who that is. That's Wang Cantou's wife."
As soon as he said this, the people behind him gasped, "Wang Cantou? Wang the Richest Man?"
During this period, we would hear about the richest man every once in a while. Mingchang County also had its richest man, and that was Wang Cantou.
He opened a fruit canning factory in the county. His business grew bigger and bigger, and the canned fruits were sold throughout the province and the country. Three years ago, he became the richest man in the county.
No one knows what his original name was, but since everyone knew him, he called him that.
Everyone in the county has heard of him, and many people started growing fruit trees because of him so they can sell the fruits to his cannery.
Half of the business of restaurants of all sizes in Mingchang County, especially that of Boss Chen, is indirectly brought in by Wang Cantou.
There are people selling fruits and people coming to buy canned food. A large part of the people coming and going are because of the canning factory.
Half of the reason why Boss Chen has become the invisible leader of Mingchang County’s catering industry in the past two years is because of Wang Canned Food.
He came to pick a fight with Gu Qingshi before because he was afraid that Wang Cantou would hear about Gu’s Kitchen and change his dinner invitations to Gu’s Kitchen in the future, so he took action.
Unexpectedly, Wang Cantou's wife and children had already been in Gu's kitchen. However, because there were so many people and Sister Wang had been keeping a low profile, he had not noticed them.
Boss Chen was regretting his decision so much at this moment. If he had known earlier, he should have kept a low profile and not bothered with all this trouble. After what happened today, Wang Cantou might never eat at his restaurant again.
Boss Chen is a scheming and smart man. He gradually built up his status to where he is today, but in the end, he was ruined by this.
In the end, he didn't know how he left, and didn't care about other people. After returning to his restaurant in a daze, he looked at the empty lobby and slammed the table in anger.
"Lao Liang, it's all their fault!"
These people inevitably took their anger out on Lao Liang and the proprietress, and it can be predicted that the future will not be easy for the two.
However, Gu Qingshi no longer cared about them. When the proprietress and her group left in a daze, her restaurant was already full of people, all waiting for the restaurant to open and eat. Gu Qingshi and Bai Zhong and the others were busy.
I breathed a sigh of relief only after all the dishes were served, but then another wave of people came to pay the bill.
On the way, Sister Wang also came with Wang Dazhi. Gu Qingshi thanked her, "Thank you for your righteous words just now, Sister Wang."
Gu Qingshi only realized that the mother and son who came to Gu’s Kitchen to eat every day were actually the wife and children of Wang, the famous richest man in Mingchang County. She also just found out about it.
"You're welcome. You can solve it even if I don't say anything. I just couldn't stand their looks and couldn't help but say a few words." Sister Wang waved her hand. "It's mainly because your food is really good."
Wang Dazhi laughed beside him and added, "It's delicious."
Sister Wang touched her head, a hint of bitterness flashing across her eyes. The biggest worry for the couple now was Dazhi.
They didn't dare to dream of curing Dazhi, that was basically impossible. They just wanted Dazhi to be safe and sound.
"Say goodbye to Boss Gu, we're leaving."
"Goodbye, sister."
Wang Dazhi waved to Gu Qingshi obediently. Gu Qingshi looked into Wang Dazhi's eyes and waved back, "Goodbye Dazhi. Remember not to eat anything else when you go back today."
"Well, if I don't want to eat it, I'll eat at my sister's house. The food there tastes better." Wang Dazhi nodded affirmatively.
After the two left, Bai Xue couldn't help but ask Gu Qingshi curiously, "Sister, are they really from the richest family in our county? Why is it named Dazhi?"
Bai Xue didn't understand why he was called Dazhi. Gu Qingshi pondered for a moment and said, "I seem to have heard Sister Wang talk about the idea of being wise but appearing foolish before. Maybe that's what it means."
Bai Xue nodded in realization, and Gu Qingshi tapped her forehead, "Stop gossiping. No matter who you are, we treat you all the same when you come to our store. You are all customers."
Gu Qingshi didn't let Bai Xue and the others discuss, but he couldn't stop other people in the store. After Sister Wang and the others left, the people in the store couldn't help but gossip about Wang Cantou in a low voice.
"What's the point of earning so much money? My son is a fool. They won't be able to take the money with them in the future, and they will be cut off from their family line."
"You know what? He's stupid, but he can just get a wife and have kids. It's not like he can't get married if he has a lot of money."
"I heard that the Wang family had been planning to find a wife for Wang Dazhi. Many people thought that the child would be the heir of the Wang family, so they really paid attention to it and thought that it was okay for the gift. What do you think happened?"
The person who said this kept everyone in suspense, and waited until everyone got anxious before saying, "Of course it didn't work out. They thought fools were easy to fool, and that anything just about right would be fine. But his son is a fool, but he's very picky, and most people don't like him."
"It's been a long time coming, and it hasn't been finalized yet. I don't know what will happen in the end."
"This fool is enjoying himself too much. Even in that state, he can still pick beautiful ones." Some people couldn't help but feel jealous.
Gu Qingshi frowned as she listened. After spending some time together, she realized that when Wang Dazhi said he was stupid, it was better to say that he was a child who never grew up. Because of his special experiences, he was very sensitive to good and evil.
If you have bad intentions towards him, or if you meet someone with bad intentions, don't even think about approaching him. He will hide from people, and if they still approach him, he will scream out of fear.
She wasn't sure if what they were talking about was true, but she didn't really like discussing it behind their backs.
Gu Qingshi interrupted their conversation by serving the dishes and changed the subject.
