The Bully General's Spiritual Husband

After leaving the crowd, Dr. Zhao walked straight into Fumanlou Restaurant.

He Miao led the man to the back courtyard and asked anxiously, "What happened, Physician Zhao? Didn't I tell you to say that the man died of poisoning?"

“Didn’t you see where that old guy from Qianzhitang is? I’m going there again. Do you think those people believe me or that old guy?”

Upon hearing that Zhang Langzhong from Qianzhitang was present, He Miao knew that their plan had failed.

He's practically a living Buddha in town; these people will definitely have even more faith in him now.

They had planned everything, but it all fell apart at the last minute.

Taking advantage of the free time, He Miao told Manager Wang at the counter about the matter.

At first, seeing the noisy scene across the street, Manager Wang thought his plan had succeeded, but unexpectedly he ran into Doctor Zhang eating there.

I never anticipated this situation, no matter how much I planned!

Manager Wang stared gloomily at the signboard of Hongxi Restaurant across the street. "Zhang Quan, you're really lucky to have escaped this disaster."

At Hongxilou, Liu Mang and his two companions dared not reveal He Miao's existence, for they knew that the owner of Fumanlou was Master Jin.

If they offend him, the three of them will never be able to stay in Qingshui Town again.

The three of them gritted their teeth and dared not utter another word.

They just said that they saw Hongxilou was doing well and wanted to swindle some money from them.

Seeing that he couldn't get any information from Xiao Si, Manager Zhang had no choice but to send Xiao Si to report to the yamen runners.

Soon after, the three were arrested by the county yamen runners.

The matter finally came to an end, and Hongxilou Restaurant returned to its bustling state.

The guests, realizing it was the three men's trick, didn't take it to heart and continued eating the leftovers from their earlier panic.

To thank Doctor Zhang for his great help, Manager Zhang specially waived his meal expenses for the day.

Dr. Zhang left the restaurant happily after finally getting to eat the Eight Treasure Duck he had been longing for.

On the second floor, Li Zhe couldn't help but glance at Yin Baicai a few more times. How did this young man know that this situation would occur? He even informed Manager Zhang in advance to call over the doctor from Qianzhitang.

Yin Baicai certainly didn't miss the gaze that Li the bully was giving her.

He appeared calm on the surface, but inside he was panicking. This bully Li had been watching him closely, and he was probably starting to get suspicious again.

Although he attributed everything to a head injury, how could that lie possibly fool the man?

It's true that someone's personality can change so drastically; if it were me, I wouldn't believe it either.

Yin Baicai felt uneasy under Li Zhe's gaze and said bluntly, "Li bully, just ask whatever you want. Why are you staring at me like that? Are you perhaps attracted by my stunning beauty?"

Yin Baicai's seemingly casual tone made Li Zhe frown.

This little liar.

Li Zhe has no intention of pressing Yin Baicai about anything else right now. For example, the strange and unusual things he knows, or things that are completely different from his original personality.

A cold voice rang out: "How did you know they would stage a poisoning scene?"

Seeing that Li Zhe only asked about what had just happened, Yin Baicai finally felt relieved.

He muttered to himself, "I was so scared! I thought that bully Li was going to ask me if I was the original owner of this body, but that's all he was asking!"

Yin Baicai pretended to be profound and said, "It's simple. You think, if a restaurant can't stay open, it's because the food is poisoned. If people die from the food, who would dare to come? Besides, Manager Zhang will be imprisoned, so naturally the restaurant can't stay open."

After Yin Baicai finished speaking, he cursed inwardly, "Damn it! This damned Fumanlou actually wants to cut off my source of income! I'm going to take all your business away!"

I'll make you all furious.

It must feel great to see the business across the street thriving every day.

Li Zhe thought about it and agreed. According to Cai Ge'er, this was indeed the simplest method, but also the most vicious.

Even if Manager Zhang's restaurant didn't poison anyone, once people heard that someone had eaten food that had been poisoned, no one would dare to eat there again.

That's why the restaurant had to close down.

Fortunately, this young man was clever and actually thought of finding Zhang Langzhong, who had an excellent reputation in Qingshui Town, to testify. This was the most powerful evidence.

Zhang Langzhong was like a living miracle doctor. His Qianzhitang clinic never overcharged, and he would also help patients in need.

No one dared to disbelieve his words, thinking: the person who devised this trick must have already bribed the doctor.

Lunchtime had passed, and business at the restaurant gradually quieted down.

After seeing off the last table of guests, Manager Zhang instructed Chef Chen to prepare a few dishes to properly entertain Yin Baicai and her group.

Xiao Si ran up and down several times before finally bringing all the food into the room where Yin Baicai and the others were.

Soon the group of people gathered together.

Manager Zhang raised a cup of wine to Yin Baicai and said, "Thank you so much, Young Master Yin. It's good that you made the arrangements beforehand, otherwise I'm afraid my restaurant would have to close down."

Xiao Si and Chef Chen were also very grateful to Yin Baicai. If these people had really succeeded in their scheme, they probably wouldn't have been able to find work.

After all, who would want a waiter who came from a restaurant that serves dead people?

Yin Baicai raised her glass in return, saying, "Manager Zhang, you're too kind. We still need to be wary of the person across the street. If I hadn't seen the waiter's expression, I'm afraid I would have been caught off guard too."

Manager Zhang thought to himself: I was right after all, this was all the work of that old fox on the other side.

They really can't stand to see their own business succeed. First, they poached their own master chef, and now that their business is thriving, they're secretly sabotaging them.

Xiao Si and Chef Chen were also filled with righteous indignation. The other side's methods were really dirty!

Manager Zhang invited Yin Baicai and Li Zhe to eat: "Young Master Yin, please try this. This is the dish you gave us last time. The most popular dish among our customers is the sour fish slice soup."

Yin Baicai took a bite and found it to be delicious. The sour soup was appetizing, and the fish slices had been cooked in the sour soup and absorbed the flavor.

This is almost identical to what Uncle Fatty made!

I only provided the recipe, and the chef made it taste so good. He's really amazing.

"Manager Zhang, what you've made is really delicious! Oh, and I'll give you two more recipes later. Also, since it's hot now, you could make some cold dishes."

Li Zhe looked at Yin Baicai, who was chatting casually with Manager Zhang, and smiled knowingly. This young man looked extremely dazzling now.

Feeling the intense gaze from beside her, Yin Baicai turned to Li Zhe with a bright smile: "Eat quickly, why are you looking at me like that?"

Li Zhe felt his heart pounding even faster, and he gasped for breath.

Li Mo tugged at Li Zhe's sleeve: "Uncle, Mo Mo wants to eat fish."

Coming to his senses, Li Zhe placed the fish meat into Li Mo's bowl.

After the meal, as usual, Yin Baicai left two menus for Manager Zhang, along with two recipes for cold dishes.

Shopkeeper Zhang accepted the money with a smile and handed over the thirty taels of silver that Yin Baicai had received.

Yin Baicai never expected that her earnings would reach thirty taels in just half a month. No wonder the neighboring restaurant, Hongxilou, was envious.

If it were him, he'd be envious too.

Everyone says the restaurant industry is a highly profitable industry, and it's true!

As Yin Baicai left Hongxi Restaurant, she saw the gloomy-looking waiter from the shop next door.

He chuckled to himself: Serves you right, you were so smug, your plan fell through!

Manager Zhang knew that Fumanlou was owned by the Jin family, and that even if he pursued the matter further, he would not fare well.

Moreover, given the connection between the county magistrate and the Jin family, he could only be cautious.
