Favoring the concubine and killing the wife? She divorced the concubine and lived with her concubine
Chapter 51 Just have a clear conscience
Xiao Lan took a quick look and saw that it was the woman who had been leading the group in the fabric store just now. Now, she had come to the restaurant with several ladies.
After hearing these harsh words, several constables could no longer sit still. They slammed their hands on the table, and the whole restaurant became quiet in an instant!
"What are you talking about!" A constable pointed at Mrs. Fan's nose, almost poking her in the face!
Mrs. Fan was not afraid of this situation. She took a step forward, raised her head, and slapped away the hand pointing at her!
"What? A few lowly slaves dare to run wild in my territory! Do you really think your Sun family is lawless?"
This Miweixuan Restaurant was owned by Madam Fan's master. It was the largest main restaurant, with several branches in other cities. Naturally, they were incredibly wealthy! To her, the Sun family had no money or power, and the Xiao family they relied on was just a family of merchants. What was there to fear? Furthermore, her master, Madam Fan, had a close personal relationship with Commander Liu. How could he possibly be afraid of a commoner?
The moment the constable heard the word "lowly slave," he nearly slapped her. They hated the words "lowly people" and "lowly slave" the most; it was a slap in their backs! Constables may not hold official positions, but they work for the government in this city, and everyone should respect them. Now this woman had spoken so brazenly in front of everyone, and with a few drinks to her credit, naturally, she couldn't hold back her temper!
"Wait!" Xiao Lan stood up and stopped the constable. This lady was so arrogant, she must have some powerful family. If the constable offended her because of him, not only would his identity be exposed, but he would also easily get into unnecessary trouble!
"Madam, everyone who comes to the restaurant is a guest. What does how others eat and drink have to do with you?" Xiao Lan was intimidating without being angry. The diners on the side also cast their eyes at her, watching the fun.
"I can't stand you and don't want you to eat here! You're dirtying our restaurant!" Mrs. Fan pressed forward step by step, but the constables did not move away and forced her to take a step back!
Xiao Lan sighed softly and asked the constable to come and stand face to face with him.
"Is this restaurant opened by Madam?" Xiao Lan looked around. There were guests everywhere, some in plain clothes and some in fancy clothes.
"Huh, what?" Mrs. Fan pointed around arrogantly, "You just found out?" She wondered if Xiao Lan still dared to be so arrogant now?
"This restaurant can serve such delicious food, yet it has such a narrow-minded proprietress? My servants risked their lives to protect their master and chased away the robbers. As their master, I treated them to a good meal, and yet you have to frame me like this? I'm grateful and treat others sincerely regardless of their status, and yet you say such a shameful thing about me? Are you trying to kill people with your mouth?"
The diners nearby started talking about it after hearing Xiao Lan's frank words.
"I think Madam Sun is right to repay her kindness. It's rare to find such a good person." A man in plain clothes muttered to the people around him, and everyone around could hear it.
"Look at her like that. I'm afraid we'll have to pay her money and she'll still say we don't deserve it!" another man echoed.
"That's not necessarily true. I'm afraid that Madam Sun must have done something shameful, so the proprietress said that!" One woman had a different opinion, and there were many different opinions for a while.
"How could an ordinary person like Mrs. Fan talk nonsense? It's all because of your entanglement with that bandit..." A woman in blue clothes who was following behind Mrs. Fan rolled her eyes, as if she had really seen the scene that night!
"You're talking nonsense!" Haitang yelled angrily, tears streaming down her big eyes. "Did all of you see the scene that day with your own eyes? The bandits held several large knives to your wife's neck and held a three-year-old girl hostage. As a mother, if you didn't go and get the money, would you risk your own life and your daughter's life? Is this what you call hugging and strolling around the house? Are you even human?" After saying this, she burst into tears and couldn't speak. She grabbed Xiao Lan's arm and said, "Madam, she is trying to force you to death!"
Xiao Lan watched Haitang burst into tears, and naturally found that everyone around her began to blame Mrs. Fan. Even the few people who thought that what the lady in blue said made sense were looking at them with disgust.
She had to admire Haitang's tear incontinence. Sometimes it was better to pretend to be weak than to reason. She had also used this method on Sun Shaohua in the Sun family.
Xiao Lan held Haitang in her arms, patted her back gently, and said in a gentle voice, ensuring that everyone around her could hear, "Forget it, as long as we have a clear conscience... Stop crying, let's go..."
As he spoke, Xiao Lan took out some silver from his sleeve and placed it on the table. The three constables glared at Mrs. Fan fiercely and followed Xiao Lan out.
Unexpectedly, several tables of indignant spectators, some in plain clothes and some in fancy clothes, also left, cursing.
"This restaurant is a must-visit. The cannibalistic proprietress, please stop making up stories about us behind our backs!"
"That's right! A woman suffered such a great injustice, and she was said to be so unbearable. I went to the door that day and saw that the whole kitchen was on fire!"
"I saw people from the government office busy inside for a long time, carrying out a lot of corpses! It's terrifying. If it were me, I would have fainted from fright!"
"Haven't you heard? Madam Sun forced herself to go get the money for her daughter. Her master was beaten to death by bandits! Everyone knows this. Some of Master Sun's poetry friends went to visit him before!"
People walked past Mrs. Fan one after another, and her expression became more and more ugly. Everyone looked at her with disgust and hostility!
"Madam Sun! Madam Sun..." A man who looked like the shopkeeper came in from outside, stretched out his hand to stop Xiao Lan, with a flattering look on his face.
"What? Haven't you scolded me enough?" Xiao Lan pretended to be sad and looked at the person who came.
"That's enough! You're still getting excited!" A passerby interrupted, causing dissatisfaction among many people, who pointed and talked.
"No, no, it's Mr. Fan who invites you to sit in the private room to apologize to you." The shopkeeper pointed to the private room on the second floor. Standing at the door was an elderly man with a seemingly kind face.
"Who do you think I am?" Xiao Lan pretended to be angry and pulled Haitang away. Several servants stopped the shopkeeper and squeezed out of the crowd without giving him a chance to explain.
A bunch of passersby were left behind, cursing for a while, and then they scattered!
Mrs. Fan seemed to have suffered a loss and was unable to utter a word. She looked up and saw Mr. Fan staring at her.
The ladies who followed her also made excuses and left, saying they had other things to do. The restaurant, which was bustling just a moment ago, was now only occupied by a handful of people.
In the private room, Fan Zhixing picked up some food for Liu and said, "Madam, you haven't had lunch yet, have you?"
"No...no..." Liu said this but didn't dare to pick up her chopsticks.
"Eat! We've been walking around for the whole morning, our legs are tired and our mouth is dry, eat more!" The bowl of the person opposite was already full, but Fan Zhixing kept picking up food.
"Master, I know I was wrong... It was because Madam Sun was so aggressive in the fabric store and even snatched the fabric I ordered, that I..."
"Eat!" Fan Zhixing stopped and stared at her with a cold look in his eyes.
Liu wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to. She picked up the chopsticks and stuffed the food in the bowl into her mouth one bite at a time.
After finishing the food in the bowl, some food was still on the table. Fan Zhixing still looked at her coldly, "Eat!" Her mouth was already full and tears were falling from the corners of her eyes, but she didn't dare to stop eating with her chopsticks.
"In business, the most important thing is reputation... The phone call you just made has given away most of my reputation!" Fan Zhixing started to put food into her bowl again. When he saw her stop, he waved his chopsticks to signal her to continue.
"Master, everyone outside says that...it's not me..."
Fan Zhixing waved his hand. "Just because I gave you the identity of Madam Fan, you've forgotten where you came from? Ha... a lowly slave?"
Liu was shocked and finally realized how she had offended Fan Zhixing.
“Eat it all!”
After Fan Zhixing finished speaking, he threw his chopsticks on the plate, opened the curtain, and strode out! Liu heaved a sigh of relief when she saw him leave.
But he saw the shopkeeper already standing at the door, looking at him, nodding and bowing, "Madam, the master asked me to serve you dinner!"
