Travel back to ancient times and open a Sichuan restaurant

Chapter 103

Even though Zhong Ruyi knew that Manager Ding had fired everyone, he didn't feel too upset. His second brother had just gone to pull the pigs into the water, but he was scolded for no reason.

They support themselves by doing business with their own hands and feet, and they don't steal or rob. Why should they be ridiculed like this? Is there a hierarchy in doing business?

Although the weather was cold, Chen Dongzhi and his colleagues were doing physical work, which required them to move things around constantly, so they sweated a lot and drank a lot of water.

Chen Dongzhi unscrewed the stopper of the water bag and gulped down a big gulp of water. As soon as the water entered his mouth, there was a faint sweet taste, like honey water.

He looked at Zhong Laosan, who was also drinking water. After taking two sips, he stopped and looked at the water bag in his hand with a grin.

Others were not like them. It was probably only the two of them who felt that the water was sweet in their mouths and went all the way to their hearts.

Finally, today's work was finished. They borrowed today's wages from the boss, and hurried back to the village before it got completely dark.

Only when they saw the big rock at the entrance of the village from afar did they slow down their pace.

Chen Dongzhi and Zhong Laosan walked behind. Zhong Laosan had worked all day and his noisy mouth could no longer speak. He only said a word or two occasionally.

When they got near the big rock, a person suddenly jumped out and scared them.

Looking closely, isn't this Wang Laizi?

Several people started complaining. It was already dark, what was Wang Laizi doing here? Why was he hanging around here instead of going home for dinner?

"Laizi! Why are you so impatient? You're going to scare people to death!"

Zhao Zhongsheng's father said that he was walking in the first place. When Wang Laizi came out just now, he thought it was some monster from the mountains that ran out, and he was very scared.

Wang Laizi had a playful smile on his face and bowed in an awkward manner, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, Laizi apologizes to Uncle Zhao and all the brothers, I just wanted to talk to Brother Dongzhi about something, I didn't expect to scare you, damn it!"

Although he said that, he looked so smiling and didn't seem apologetic at all.

Knowing how much of a scoundrel this guy was, they just complained a few words and left.

Chen Dongzhi was a little confused when he heard that Wang Laizi was looking for him. He and he had never said anything to each other, so what did he want to talk to him about?

Zhao Zhongsheng and the others left first. Wang Laizi saw that Zhong Laosan was still there, so he urged him to leave quickly because he had something to say to Chen Dongzhi.

Zhong Laosan refused to leave. "What do you want from Dongzhi? If you have something to say, please say it quickly so as not to delay him from going back to eat."

Ever since he found out about his younger sister and Chen Dongzhi, he no longer called Chen Dongzhi brother, but just called him by his name.

Wang Laizi rolled his eyes, "You are the only one who is nosy! You have to interfere when I am talking to my brother Dongzhi!"

After saying that, he looked directly at Chen Dongzhi without paying any attention to what Zhong Laosan was saying.

His previous impression of Chen Dongzhi was that he was taciturn, but he was not like other people in the village who would frown and look unhappy to see him when they saw him.

He was just lazy and hadn't done anything murderous or arsonous, so did they treat him like a monster?

What's the point of their hard work? Aren't I, a lazy person, living a good life and not starving to death?

Being lazy is not a capital crime. If they are diligent, they will have endless work to do from morning to night and endless suffering to endure.

He is a little lazy, but he doesn't work as hard as them and can still support himself. This is his ability!

Not only do they have no ability, but they also look down on me. Bah! I am lucky enough that I don't look down on them!

They also look down on their own mother and always bully her in words and deeds.

Can't they just mind their own business? Why do they bother to care about whether others are lazy or not? It's really like a dog trying to meddle in other people's business!

But Chen Dongzhi is quite good. Most people in the village ignore him and his mother when they see him, but he can still greet them and don't show any contempt for them. He feels good!

In that case, then what the man asked him to do would not work!

He spoke directly, "The day before yesterday, a man from the next village came to me and gave me two taels of silver, asking me to tease Zhong Ruyi while she was in the village, and then he would take the opportunity to come out and save the beauty!"

Chen Dongzhi felt strange when he heard this. Why did Wang Laizi come to him to say this? Only his family knew about his relationship with Ruyi, and no one else knew about it. How did Wang Laizi know about it?

What's more, Zhong Laosan was standing right next to him, and Ruyi was Zhong Laosan's sister. Why didn't he tell Zhong Laosan?

Regardless of whether this is true or false, we must first find out how Wang Laizi knew about my relationship with Ruyi.

His eyes were sharp, looking straight at Wang Laizi.

Wang Laizi waved his hand and said, "I was wandering around last time, thinking of catching a rabbit in the mountains to roast and eat, but I saw you and that silly girl from the Zhong family talking on the mountain. I know who I am, Wang Laizi, and I know what's going on with you two at a glance!"

He was very proud. Although he was lazy, there were still girls who liked him. There was a widow in the neighboring village who looked at him with eyes as if she was attracted to him. Wasn't this the same as what he saw when he saw Chen Dongzhi and that silly girl that day?

Silly girl?

Chen Dongzhi's eyes became even sharper. Zhong Laosan, who was standing next to him, was already very angry when he heard that someone was paying Wang Laizi to tease his younger sister, but then Wang Laizi called his sister a silly girl.

He was so angry that he almost rushed up to hit Wang Laizi, but was stopped by Chen Dongzhi.

Wang Laizi smiled awkwardly, and after seeing the two people's reactions he realized that he had said the wrong thing, but he refused to admit defeat and remained stubborn.

"What do you want to do? Do you want to hit someone? Do you think no one knows about your daily affairs with Zhou Yuru from the next village? Do you have the nerve to do that?"

"You don't know yet, do you? The man who came to me is Zhou Yuru's brother! Hehe! Your sweetheart's brother paid me to tease your sister, and then he came out to save the beauty. You are such a sucker! Do you understand what I mean?"

"Impossible!" Zhong Laosan immediately retorted.

Wang Laizi knew that they would not believe it so easily. He took out the purse Zhou Yushou gave him and opened it to reveal two taels of silver.

"Here! He gave this to me, hey hey! Don't snatch it away!"

He was furious. Although he took the money, he didn't intend to do what he said. He wanted the money, but he didn't want to do the work.

When Zhong Laosan saw the money bag, his eyes widened. He didn't believe it at first, but he himself had a money bag like this.

He took out the purse he carried with him. It was a gift from Yu Ru. She said she had made one, but it was snatched away by her brother, so she had to make another one.

He was so moved that he gave her 500 coins from his own pocket. Yu Ru had been refusing to accept it, but he forced her to accept it.

Now there were two identical money bags in front of him, and he felt disappointed.

Yes, he likes Yu Ru, but he cares more about his family. Now the brother of the girl he likes wants to hurt his sister. How can he feel?

On the one hand, he felt that this had nothing to do with Yu Ru, but on the other hand, he thought that Yu Ru was innocent. Wasn't his own sister innocent too?

He didn't know why Zhou Yushou would have such dirty thoughts about his own sister.

Perhaps if he had not developed this relationship with Yu Ru in the beginning, his sister would not have been plotted against like this.

It was all because of me that Yu Ru knew about her sister's existence. Maybe it was because Yu Ru let the cat out of the bag in front of Zhou Yu Shou that caused him to have bad intentions.

As soon as Chen Dongzhi saw the expression on Zhong Laosan's face when he looked at the money bag, he knew that this must be true, and his face became gloomy.

"What did Zhou Yushou say to you that day? Tell me clearly. If you don't, don't even think about getting the money back!"

Wang Laizi stared at him with wide eyes, but he had no choice but to tell him everything that happened that day because the silver had been snatched away by him.
