Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister

Xiaoqing was shoved aside, her lower back hitting the corner of the table, and her face turned pale.

Old Xu was furious. He realized that these people weren't there to buy meat at all; they were there to cause trouble.

With a long face, she said, "Smash it? If you smash it, you'll have to pay me back exactly what you found!"

Old Xu snorted inwardly, "If I don't show my power, do you think I'm a pushover?"

Just as Xiaoqing was about to speak, Scarface grabbed Old Man Xu's collar.

"That old man's got quite the nerve. I'll see how you make me pay him back."

Xiaoqing panicked and grabbed Scarface's arm. "My grandfather is very old. Let's talk this out. Don't hit him!"

Scarface didn't even glance at the pretty boy; instead, he leered at Xiaoqing's face.

"Damn it, who does a grown man like that think he can seduce? Come on, let me touch you a few times. If I feel good, I won't smash up your shop!"

He had never seen such a handsome man before. He had heard that there were men at the Inviting Moon Pavilion, and he wondered what it would be like for them.

"Pooh!"

Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, Old Xu spat on Scarface's face.

Scarface, enraged, was about to punch Old Man Xu on the head when Xiaoqing instinctively grabbed a stool and smashed it over Scarface's head instead.

As Scarface grabbed Xiaoqing, Old Man Xu was also thrown away with great force, his head hitting the corner of the table, and he fell silent instantly.

"You pretty boy, you've got guts! I'll kill you today!"

With blood streaming down his face, Scarface grinned excitedly and punched Xiaoqing on the head, making him see stars.

Xiaoqing's face turned pale, and she felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

Just as he was about to strike a second time, the henchman next to him whispered, "Boss, there are so many people watching. Don't kill anyone."

A crowd had gathered at a distance outside the door sometime earlier.

The tables, chairs, and benches had been mostly smashed, and the stove in the kitchen had also been destroyed, leaving only the large earthenware pot for braising meat.

It was half a person tall, and the smell inside was so good that they couldn't bear to cook it.

"Smash!"

Scarface flung Xiaoqing aside and kicked the clay pot, but missed.

"Old man, are you alright?!"

After regaining her senses, Xiaoqing saw that Old Xu hadn't moved for a long time, so she lifted his head up and saw the blood seeping from his head. She panicked instantly.

"Old man, don't die!"

Xiaoqing, her hands trembling and gritting her teeth, carried Old Man Xu outside and said to the onlookers, "Please send a message to the academy, saying that Old Man Xu was injured at the Suibian Restaurant!"

"Doctor, could you please call a doctor for me?"

Xiaoqing looked at the blood on her hands, her voice trembling with tears.

Although this old man is quite annoying, this is no way he should die!

That was such a pathetic death; people would laugh themselves to death if word got out.

With a loud bang, a sharp, crisp sound.

A rich, savory aroma of braised meat wafted out.

Scarface appeared at the door with a gloomy face. "These old bastards in this restaurant and this pretty boy dare to offend me, Scarface? Don't they even bother to find out who I am? Let's see which busybody dares to send a message!"

The passersby who originally intended to report the news all stopped in their tracks and dared not go any further.

Scarface is a notorious villain in this area. Even the government doesn't dare to offend him. If someone targets him, they'll definitely try to get revenge.

We're all just ordinary people, so we're bound to have concerns.

The old lady came out to buy things and saw a commotion from afar. She was standing far away when she heard this and crept away furtively.

Seeing that no one was watching, he took off running and ran all the way to the academy.

They knocked on the door to report, "Hey, the old man who runs your restaurant has been beaten to death! You need to go see for yourselves!"

The gatekeeper was stunned for a moment before cursing, "Go away, who are you? What old man who runs a restaurant? There is no such person in the academy. What nonsense are you spouting in broad daylight?"

The students were all on holiday, and the gatekeeper saw that the gatekeeper's wife was covered in sweat, dressed improperly, and panting heavily, and he couldn't understand what she was saying. He guessed that she might have mental problems, so he chased her away.

"I'm telling the truth! Hurry up and send someone! That old man died, and that young man asked me to deliver the news! If it weren't for the delicious meat, do you think I would have come?"

The door's mother stomped her feet in anger and started cursing.

Her good intentions were completely wasted.

Just as they were cursing, Shi Luo came out of the academy and saw the gatekeeper, so she frowned.

"Who did you say died?!"

The doorkeeper glanced at the scholar, her first thought being that he was alright looking but a bit young, before she remembered the important matter at hand.

"That old man who sold braised meat, what was his surname again? He got beaten to death by some troublemakers!"

It seemed she had heard someone call out "Old Xu".

"Oops!"

Shi Luo's expression changed drastically on the spot, and he turned and ran into the academy.

The door's mother was dumbfounded when she saw the person run away like that. "He's supposed to be an educated person! So rude, he didn't even say thank you when I came to deliver the message."

After saying that, she stormed off, swaying her hips in a huff.

Another day of doing good deeds without any reward.

……

……

"what?!"

Dean Bai was nearly driven mad when he heard the commotion.

He grabbed the hat off his head and shouted, "Take some men and go quickly! Catch the troublemaker! I'll cut him into a thousand pieces!"

"Broken into pieces!"

"I'll go too!"

Dean Bai told Shi Feng and Shi Luo to take their men and leave first, since he was slow, and instructed his servants to prepare a carriage to pick them up.

At the restaurant entrance, Scarface, seeing that none of the people dared to move, sneered at Xiaoqing, "Pretty boy, have you forgotten about me? If you're willing to come with me, I'll let you go and even let you call a doctor. How about it?"

This man was incredibly handsome; Scarface felt he had captured his heart, otherwise he would have killed him earlier.

Xiaoqing forced back the tears welling up in her eyes, her face expressionless. "Fine, send someone to fetch a doctor!"

The old man is dead, and he's going to kill this guy!

Scarface burst into laughter upon hearing this, but just as he was laughing, someone kicked him in the waist and knocked him to the ground.

Four burly men were taken down by Shi Feng alone, who had gone mad.

"Tie them all up and take them away!"

After Shi Feng finished speaking, he quickly looked at Old Man Xu in Xiao Qing's arms with red eyes.

Upon seeing this, Scarface's expression changed, and he scrambled to his feet and ran away.

There were too many onlookers, so they couldn't catch Scarface.

The remaining three were unable to escape and were tied up by the men Luo brought when he was a step behind.

"Quickly bring the person up and take them to the nearest clinic!" Dean Bai's carriage arrived, and he spoke anxiously.

Shi Feng snatched Old Man Xu away and carried him onto the carriage, with Xiao Qing following behind.

The restaurant was in a mess both inside and out. Someone bent down and picked up a small piece of silver that had been scattered on the ground.

Then the onlookers all bent down and started searching.

Some people even ran inside to collect the remaining broth that hadn't completely spilled onto the ground in bowls.

The dark side of human nature was vividly displayed in a small matter.
