Chapter 384 The cursing old woman
It was still dark when they returned to Yancheng. Looking at the Yancheng gate in front of them, Nanzhi and Shen Wenchen felt a little confused.
Looking at the old man who was eating noodles leisurely at a stall nearby, the young couple looked at each other, and they could see obvious shock in each other's eyes.
It took them four days to go, but only four hours to come back?
"Boy, two more bowls of broth noodles!" The old man finished the last bowl of noodle soup and raised his hand to order two more bowls.
The young man setting up the stall looked at the two empty bowls on his table and hesitated.
This old man has already eaten two bowls. Don’t let your stomach get upset if you eat more...
"Why, you're afraid that my old man can't afford the money." The old man frowned and shouted to Shen Wenchen.
"Boy Shen, come here quickly and give me some money."
"Hey, okay." Shen Wenchen nodded, walked over quickly and gave him twenty coins.
When the man saw that he had given him the money, he didn't have much to say, so he nodded and continued on.
"Senior..." Shen Wenchen hesitated to speak. Although this senior was not an ordinary person, seeing that he never stopped talking along the way, he was still a little worried.
"You'd better not worry about me for now. Go back to the city and have a look." The old man took a sip of tea and twisted his body comfortably.
Shen Wenchen's face froze, and he took out another two taels of silver from his pocket and gave it to him, and then he spoke.
"Senior, please accept these two taels of silver. If there is anything you want to eat, just buy it directly. If you don't have enough money, just go to the city lord's mansion to get it."
"Okay, okay, take that girl back quickly."
The old man waved his hand and ignored them.
As soon as Shen Wenchen talked to Nanzhi, the two of them didn't care about anything else. They called a carriage and entered the city.
There are only three places where things can go wrong.
One is the county government, the second is Sanweiju, and the third is the new shop bought by the Lin family.
Since the three places were all close together, the two of them went directly to the nearest new store.
Because they wanted to open the shop earlier, the Lin family had been busy repairing the shop. Now they were a little surprised to see the young couple coming back.
A few days ago, the two of them sent a message saying that they would be out of town for ten days on business. They were worried that their wedding would be delayed. Why did they come back today?
Zhiyu was originally helping to deliver things with his three brothers, but now he saw his parents coming back and his face lit up with joy.
"Dad! Aniang! Are you back so soon?"
Zhiyu has long since lost the worries she had when she was a child as her parents are now too busy to see anyone every day.
Although my parents are very busy, they will not abandon themselves.
"Auntie misses you so much." Nanzhi reached out and picked up Zhiyu, kissed him hard twice, and then put him down.
Now that the child is older, he is a little heavy.
"What's wrong with you guys in such a hurry?" Mother Lin wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked at them and asked.
"It's nothing serious, Auntie. Is everything okay at home?"
Nanzhi didn't want to worry her mother-in-law, so she asked sideways.
"It's nothing." Mother Lin shook her head, then suddenly remembered something, with a smile on her face.
"Your second sister-in-law is here. This is a great joy."
Nanzhi nodded and only said a few words to them before pulling Shen Wenchen into the carriage again.
When they reached the intersection, they walked separately, one hurried to the county government office and the other to Sanweiju.
Sure enough, as soon as Nanzhi got off the carriage at the door of Sanweiju, he heard a smashing sound coming from inside.
With a thump in her heart, Nanzhi gave the coachman twenty coins and hurried to the restaurant.
The lobby was noisy, with diners running out and others watching.
Liu Dazheng was anxious, and when he saw Nanzhi coming in, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master!"
Nanzhi couldn't help but grow cold when she saw that his body was covered with water stains.
"what happened?"
Liu Da hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to speak, and then heard an old woman shouting.
"Where is the owner of this restaurant? Call that bitch out!"
The old woman was in her fifties, with a slender face and glistening triangular eyes.
"I am the owner of this restaurant. I wonder what you want from me?" Nanzhi looked at her coldly, but in his heart he was thinking about the mess on the ground.
Although many things in the restaurant were left behind by shopkeeper Lu, she later bought a lot of things.
That bowl alone cost five cents each.
It's better now, it's all turned into scum.
"Are you that bitch?" The old woman looked at Nanzhi, suddenly sneered, raised her hand and threw the tea cup in her hand towards her.
Nanzhi didn't expect that the old woman would take action. She couldn't dodge and was almost hit in the head by the tea cup. Fortunately, the shorter An Wazi pulled her and prevented her from seeing blood.
From the beginning, the old woman just smashed things and didn't hurt anyone. Liu Da and Aze didn't dare to force themselves. They just sent people to the county government to find officials.
But at this moment, their boss was almost injured, and they were also annoyed. Several of the waiters looked at each other and rolled up their sleeves to go forward and press him.
"What are you doing! You guys are bullying an old woman like me! Be careful of being struck by lightning!"
The old woman grabbed a wooden stick with one hand and swung it back and forth, but there was no trace of fear in her eyes.
"You are so anxious, could it be that you are all that bitch's mistress? Damn, you are disgusting!"
The old woman became more and more filthy as she scolded her. After hearing this, some diners couldn't help but glance at Nanzhi.
Not only was this Lin Dongjia good-looking, but she also owned such a large restaurant at such a young age. They were curious about her origins from the beginning.
Some people guessed that she was a wealthy lady from some family who came out to do business, but a serious lady from a famous family might not stay in a restaurant every day.
Now what the old woman said made them a little confused.
If she is not a legitimate young lady and has so much money, it would be easy to guess...
"What nonsense are you talking about, you old fool!" The guys were all young, so they were naturally annoyed when someone said that to their faces, and their faces became red and hot when they became annoyed.
Just looking at it like this makes it easy for people to think astray.
"You know what I'm saying! I don't know if this prodigal hoof is rotten or not! Bah!"
The old woman became more and more filthy as she talked, and her voice was so loud that the female customers in the ice drink shop next door and the customers in the women's building also heard her, so they all put down their money and left.
Only a few remain here.
Even if what the old woman said was false, it would only affect their reputation.
Nanzhi didn't speak, just stood in the protective circle of the guys and looked coldly at the crazy old woman.
"I'm right! You are so shameless, you prodigal! You didn't learn well at a young age, so you learned how to seduce others!"
The old woman cursed more and more vigorously, but an angry voice came from the door.
"Say one more thing!"
Before Shen Wenchen had time to change his clothes, his entire face turned black, and his affectionate peach blossom eyes facing Nanzhi were now filled with anger.
The old woman wanted to scold again, but stopped when she met Shen Wenchen's eyes.
