Chapter 663 Spare us
Lu Wenqing and Qilixiang's shopkeeper Sun were discussing the matter, trying to appease those who were affected by the fight between the two.
But apparently, things didn’t go that smoothly.
“I came here to have a nice meal, but I can’t eat it for no reason. How can you just not charge me for the meal? This good mood has been ruined. Why do you have to pay for a few more meals?”
"That's right, the clothes I have are made by my mother. My mother is no longer alive now. These clothes are hard to find. I asked shopkeeper Lu for twenty taels of silver. It's not too much. "
"Shopkeeper Lu, I don't want to cause trouble, but at this point, I can't just dismiss people casually. I got a bottle of wine smashed, and you Qilixiang will pay me a month's worth of wine. That’s what it should be.”
…”
A group of people, all talking at random, surrounded Lu Wenqing and Shopkeeper Sun, without even giving them a chance to reply.
It was winter, and there were fine beads of sweat on Lu Wenqing's forehead.
this…
Gu Xiuwen frowned, stood on tiptoe, and looked around.
Most of the people around were watching the excitement, but a few wanted to open their mouths, but seeing the menace and ferocious looks of the people who asked Lu Wenqing for compensation, they swallowed all their words.
And the people closest to Lu Wenqing and Shopkeeper Sun were the ones who screamed the loudest for compensation.
It is self-evident what the purpose of these people is.
Gu Xiuwen cleared his throat and said, "Who is making trouble here!"
This shout is powerful without anger.
Everyone went to take a look. When they saw it was Gu Xiuwen, those who knew him hurriedly saluted.
“Your Majesty the County Magistrate.”
“Your Majesty the County Magistrate.” Lu Wenqing saw Gu Xiuwen and came over to greet him, “I don’t know if the County Magistrate is here, but I’m far away...”
“It doesn’t matter, I was just passing by. I originally wanted to eat a pot of braised mutton here, but I saw the commotion here, so I came over to take a look.”
Gu Xiuwen glanced around and said, "I just heard from people below that someone seems to be drunk and causing trouble? Where is he now?"
“Still here.” Lu Wenqing pointed to the two people being supported by the waiter in the shop next to her.
The two men had injuries on their faces, their bodies were shaky, and they looked drunk.
"These two people look familiar to me..." Gu Xiuwen nodded slightly, "Since they were drunk and causing trouble, let them take them back to the Yamen and put a few boards on them to serve as a warning to others."
"Since everything happened because of these two people, these two people should be responsible for the soiled clothes and broken wine. In addition, the dishes that were damaged by Qilixiang should also be included in this. On two people’s heads.”
Gu Xiuwen said, "You guys, together with shopkeeper Lu, report all the damaged things and their value. After these two people wake up, I will make the decision and ask for compensation for you." return."
They had to fight again and lose money. The two drunkards, who were drunk and unsteady on their feet, hurriedly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Gu Xiuwen, "Master, we were confused for a moment and drank it." Just two mouthfuls of yellow soup will cause trouble everywhere. The county magistrate thought that we were the first offenders and spared us. "
“Yes, county magistrate, we are guilty of this, and we have to make amends with Shopkeeper Lu...”
As they spoke, the two men turned to Lu Wenqing and apologized angrily, "Shopkeeper Lu, it's all our fault today."
