120 Teaching the Sc.u.mbag a Lesson
Li Xiaoran stared at He Lun and gritted her teeth. “Why do I only know how to cook and not how to make poison?! If I knew how to make poison, I would definitely make He Lun itch all over and make him feel uncomfortable. Then, I would make him feel uncomfortable for a month!”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he put down his chopsticks.
“What a coincidence. I happen to have this poison!”
Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng and sized up the man in front of her. She asked, “Do you have any sort of poison?”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he shook his head. “I don’t run a medicine shop. How can I have all kinds of poison?! Anyway, I have the poison you mentioned. The effect will last for a month!”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately laughed.
“Shall we get someone to give this to He Lun?”
“Not only for He Lun, but also for that shifty-eyed person beside He Lun! I hate him!”
“Alright! I’ll satisfy you!” Luo Cheng stood up and looked at Li Xiaoran. “Wife, wait here for a moment. I’ll make the arrangements now!”
Li Xiaoran nodded and was in a better mood. Then, she picked up a chicken claw and ate it.
Needless to say, the chicken feet in this restaurant were very tasty. They were soft and tender.
When Luo Cheng came in again, he saw Li Xiaoran eating chicken feet with chopsticks.
His wife mastered the skill of using chopsticks. She picked up the chicken claw steadily and it didn’t slip at all.
“Looks like you like chicken feet very much!” Luo Cheng said to Li Xiaoran as he walked over.
“Yes! This chicken claw tastes good!” Li Xiaoran nodded honestly.
“If you like it, I’ll buy you another one later!” Luo Cheng said when he saw that Li Xiaoran was eating happily.
“Really? How much money does this cost?” Li Xiaoran thought of something and asked.
“Don’t worry, it won’t cost that much. I have money. Have you forgotten?” Luo Cheng said like a nouveau riche.
For some reason, Li Xiaoran suddenly thought of the box of gold and silver jewelry she had discovered on the day she married over. She immediately felt relieved.
“Alright, then let’s order another serving to take away! Unfortunately, I can’t get a lot of chicken feet. If I could get a lot of chicken feet, I could make you several flavors of side dishes. I guarantee it will taste better than this chicken feet!”
“Chicken feet? Actually, there are some. If you really want them, I can find someone to buy them!” Luo Cheng was interested in the tasty chicken feet that Li Xiaoran mentioned.
“By the way, speaking of which, doesn’t the house we bought have a shop in front? What do you think about me opening a wine shop with it?” Luo Cheng thought of something important and asked.
“Wine shop? Where would the wine come from?” Li Xiaoran’s first reaction was to ask this.
“Rest a.s.sured! Other than being good at hunting, your husband is also good at brewing wine. The wine I make is definitely excellent!” Luo Cheng said confidently.
“Then does the shop only sell wine?” Li Xiaoran didn’t expect Luo Cheng to have this ability. While exclaiming, she thought of another question.
“No, my wine shop will be a little different. The wine can only be drunk in the shop and can’t be taken away. By the way, the tasty chicken feet you mentioned just now gave me a good idea. Previously, I was worried that it wouldn’t do to have meals without wine, but it’s also very troublesome to hire a chef. Now that I think about it, if you can make chicken feet with wine, it will save me the trouble of hiring a chef!” Luo Cheng said his plan.
When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s plan, her eyes lit up and she said excitedly, “Not only do I have chicken feet, but I can also make many braised or cold dishes. With these things, I just need to hire people to do things. After braising them in advance, they can be sold in a wine shop.”
“Looks like I’ll be lucky again soon!” Luo Cheng said with a smile when he saw Li Xiaoran’s eagerness.
“Of course. Husband, just wait for me to show off and make a big table of dishes for you!” Li Xiaoran said proudly.
As they spoke, there was a commotion in the lobby.
Li Xiaoran looked down and saw a woman in a red dress whipping He Lun.
“You lecher, you actually want to take advantage of me? I’ll teach you a lesson today!” As she spoke, the sound of whips sounded one after another. He Lun had already suffered several whips.
Not only He Lun, but Xu Dehui, who was originally sitting beside Helun, was also implicated and suffered two whips.
Fortunately, although the woman in red was angry, she only beat up He Lun’s table when she taught him a lesson. The only thing that was broken was this table.
When the woman in red was done venting, she looked at He Lun, whose clothes had been beaten into strips.
“You ruined my good mood today, so you must compensate me with five hundred taels of silver! Otherwise, I’ll break your arm!” The woman in red looked at He Lun and said.
He Lun was frightened and shocked.
He didn’t know what was going on. He just stretched and changed his posture. How did he end up touching the woman in red? That was why he was beaten up.
“I didn’t do it on purpose just now. You’ve already hurt people for no reason, yet you want to extort money now?” He Lun forced himself to calm down as she questioned.
The woman in red laughed when she heard this.
“Why don’t you ask around? Do I, Jin Sanniang, need to extort money from you to earn money? The money my family earns is enough for me to spend for a few lifetimes. Why would I need to extort money from you? What a joke!”
After they heard the woman in red introduce herself, the expressions of the students changed.
Others might not know, but they had heard of Jin Sanniang!
Jin Sanniang had been pampered by her family since she was young. In addition, her family didn’t lack money. She also had a sister who was married to a prince. She was high profile and only knew how to show off.
However, although Jin Sanniang had a reputation for being arrogant, she only targeted people she disliked. She rarely implicated the commoners, let alone bullied those weak people, so her reputation wasn’t bad.
When He Lun learned the other party’s ident.i.ty, his expression turned ashen.
Others might not know, but He Lun did.
The reason Jin Sanniang was making things difficult for him was probably because of the government official’s daughter!
One had to know that Jin Sanniang and the government official’s daughter he knew had been sworn enemies since they were young.
