Chapter 130 Lai Zi is a boy with a secret
Who am I? I am a modern great man who has traveled through thousands of years. I know everything about astronomy and geography. I have taken the college entrance examination, suffered from cancer, sacrificed my life to feed wild wolves, seen airplanes and cannons, aircraft carriers and rockets, and ridden on trains and ships. Just tell me if I am awesome!
Of course, these are all Li Yuer’s own fantasies.
Li Yuer looked at the crowd and said in a resounding voice: "My grandma said that everyone in this world can make mistakes. The abbot of the Mazu Temple said that it is the greatest blessing to know one's mistakes and correct them. (Li Yuer: I think all monks have said this.)
I have no right to ask you to forgive their mistakes, but I want to give them a chance. Giving them a chance is also giving you a chance. If they become better, they will not make mistakes again, and you don’t have to worry about them hurting you anymore.”
The crowd gradually quieted down, feeling that what Li Yuer said made some sense. If these little hooligans really changed for the better, they would really have less trouble.
Li Yuer pointed at the things on the cart and said, "I paid them to buy these things. I plan to set up a barbecue stall after the New Year. These are the raw materials. I guarantee that you have never eaten seafood barbecue before. They are all my guests, so please come and support us."
While Li Yuer was trying to appease the crowd instigated by Yellow-toothed Pig, he was also advertising his own business.
"If you still believe that people are inherently good, give them a chance. Let me give you a brand new them and let them bring you the most delicious seafood barbecue!"
"Barbecue seafood?" Someone asked curiously, "How to grill seafood?"
"Is it delicious?" The foodie's attention was immediately diverted.
Some people don’t believe it: “How can seafood be delicious if it’s so fishy?” They can obviously not eat fishy food. However, Li Yuer is confident that their barbecue will not taste fishy.
“Who says all seafood tastes fishy? That’s because you don’t know how to cook it. The seafood cooked by Chef Qian of Nongchaolou is fresh and not fishy!” retorted a seafood lover.
"Nongchaolou? Chef Qian? Have you ever eaten there?" the former was not convinced.
"How do you know I haven't eaten it? Let me tell you, I..."
Suddenly, the topic jumped to an unknown distant place...
"If you say something is yours, then it's yours! Do you have any evidence?" Even at this time, Ma Wu was still looking for trouble.
Li Yuer then rolled his eyes at Ma Wu with disdain, looking at him as if he were an idiot: "As the saying goes, catch the thief and take the stolen goods. You said they stole, where is your evidence?"
"That's right! Do you have any evidence?" Some people now came to their senses and questioned Ma Wu and others.
Some even whispered, "Are those big guys the thugs from Lulufa Casino?"
"Has our town opened a new casino?" someone said worriedly, fearing that his ignorant kid would be led astray. He quickly grabbed his ear to stop him from watching the fun and forcibly took him away.
"Who was shouting in the crowd just now? Is he kidding? We have all been led astray by him." The speaker looked among the crowd for the culprit.
When Dahuangya heard this, he lowered his head, shrank his neck, bent over, smelled the farts of the people in front and behind him, and ran away.
Li Yuer looked at the crowd and said, "Uncles, aunts, sisters, brothers and sisters, you can see that the cart is covered with cloth and the items are in bags. No one can see what's inside. Why don't you ask them to tell you what's inside, where they bought it and how much it cost? Then you can check it out and the truth will be revealed."
The sparrow said quickly, "We have two hundred catties of white flour and two hundred catties of refined rice."
"Hiss!" The crowd onlookers exclaimed in surprise.
He is really rich. He bought 200 kilograms of white flour and refined rice at a time. It seems that whatever he grills must be delicious.
Shitou quickly said, "We bought it at Wanjia Grain Store."
Captain Zhong winked at his runner, and the runner led Jia Que away.
One of the sturdy men walked up to Captain Zhong and whispered, "Captain Zhong, do you really want to get involved in today's matter? Don't you know who is standing behind us?"
Captain Zhong pretended not to understand and said, "I am just doing my job. I believe your master will understand once he knows. Besides, we are all working for the same master, so why should we kill each other?"
He looked at the strong man fearlessly and said, "We each have our own duties. Since some people are like snakes in the gutter, responsible for dealing with those things that are not allowed to see the light, don't hunt in the sun. If you cross the line, be careful not to get your eyes burned by the sun. That would be bad."
The sturdy man flicked his sleeves and walked away angrily.
He glared at Ma Wu. It was he who caused all the trouble today.
He whispered in Ma Wu's ear: "The reason why I still care about you as a dog is to let you search for prey for the master, not to let you use the power of the tiger to avenge your personal grudges and show off your power. You'd better keep your tail between your legs and be careful in the future."
Ma Wu had not expected that things would develop to this point today. He was already frightened in his heart and stammered, not daring to speak.
Soon, the bailiff came back with the sparrow.
"Go ahead." said Captain Zhong.
The bailiff understood what Captain Zhong meant. Captain Zhong wanted him to tell everyone so as to clear someone's name.
"Reporting to the head, the owner of the grain store confirmed that they did buy a lot of grain from the grain store a quarter of an hour ago, and also said, also said..."
"What?" asked Captain Zhong.
"The boss was very impressed with him." The yamen runner pointed at Jia Que'er, "He also said that he was too clingy. I have said that I will not give you a discount, and I will not give you a discount. Their shop in Wanfu has always had a fixed price, and they are fair to everyone."
House Sparrow lowered his head in embarrassment. He was just used to being thrifty and felt uncomfortable buying things without bargaining.
Captain Zhong said, "Since the truth has come to light, it must have been a misunderstanding. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, both parties should go their separate ways immediately!"
This outcome was within Li Yuer's expectations. Captain Zhong chose the outcome that was most favorable to them, and perhaps to Lai Zi.
If they offend someone too badly, Captain Zhong will not be able to protect them all the time.
The sturdy man glared at Li Yuer and the others fiercely, then led Ma Wu away.
Without waiting for Li Yuer and the others to thank him, Captain Zhong just glanced at Lai Zi and hurried away with his runners.
The onlookers gradually dispersed. By now, they had figured out some of the tricks.
Those who have seen Ma Wu have long recognized that he is a scum who steals and harasses decent women and has been in prison. However, they are afraid of the gambling thugs behind him, so they dare not speak out in support of Li Yuer and others.
Li Laosan and his friends did make mistakes, but they were just small mistakes made by rebellious boys, like a little beggar who was very hungry and stole some steamed buns. In fact, they were not really evil and they were all pitiful people.
Unfortunately, everyone’s life is hard, and if you give to others, you may not have enough to eat.
But Ma Wu is a real trouble. If he really succeeds, it will harm some young girl or wife, and maybe even kill someone.
After all, clan etiquette holds that a woman's reputation is more important than her life.
Thinking of this, what the man didn't dare to say just now would not prevent him from saying it privately with his neighbors, friends and family.
Word spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and gradually people realized that Ma Wu and his men were the real villains.
Instead, they felt sympathy for Li Laosan and the others, saying that they were second-rate people who had turned around and were priceless.
In addition, several people later jumped out to speak for Li Laosan and others.
For example, Li Laosan once saw an old lady fall in the snow. He carried her for two miles and sent her home without asking for anything or saying anything. He just turned around and left.
Another teenager stood up and said that Lai Zi didn't steal his wooden horse, but he asked Lai Zi to push the wooden horse, which was exciting, and he fell on a rock and knocked out his baby teeth. But the adults didn't believe it, saying that Lai Zi threatened him, so he said that, but it was not true.
Rumors are like this. If more people spread them and they spread them for a long time, there will still be people who believe them no matter how outrageous they are.
Jia Que'er ran to Li Yu'er and said happily: "Yu Bao'er, you are really amazing, and Big Head Brother, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have not believed you."
Big Head shook his head and said, "It's okay, we are brothers."
"Yes! We are brothers!" Shi Tou said happily while pushing the cart.
After what happened just now, even though their wealth had been exposed, no one dared to follow them in the town.
After all, these things have been seen by the officials, and if they are robbed, a case will be reported.
Li Laosan didn't say anything, his face looked unhappy, and he walked silently in front.
Li Yu'er ignored him. Her third uncle still needed training. She just looked at Lai Zi meaningfully.
Lai Zi felt someone was looking at him, so he turned to Li Yuer, but after just one glance, Lai Zi looked away.
Sometimes, he felt that Li Yuer's eyes were so bright that they could illuminate the darkness in people's hearts.
Now, he felt that Li Yuer's eyes were too deep, like the Dragon Locking Well, where one could not see the bottom of the well, but she could easily see through others.
