Su Muxin didn't expect to meet Xie Ru, so she hurried forward to thank him.
"Thank you, Master, for helping me again. I don't even know how to thank you." Su Muxin bowed slightly and saluted.
"Since it is fate that we can meet again, why should we be so polite?" Xie Ru nodded slightly and gestured in return.
This scene happened to be seen by Zhang Qi in the crowd.
Zhang Qi originally went to the street to buy something. When he heard something going on here, he came over to watch the excitement. Unexpectedly, he saw Su Muxin being troubled.
Just when she was about to gloat about her misfortune, she found that the two people who were making trouble were not Su Muxin's opponents at all, and she was a little disappointed.
Just as she was about to leave, she saw Xie Ru again in Yushu Linfeng.
Her eyes suddenly lit up and she could no longer take her eyes away from Xie Ru.
Isn't this the man Zhang Qi longs for!
When she heard Xie Ru's identity, she was even more convinced that she would not marry anyone other than Xie Ru in this life.
But she only knew about the wealth of the Xie family, but she didn't know that Xie Ru was engaged to the county magistrate's daughter.
She also dreamed of becoming the eldest mistress of the Xie family in the future, even if her parents' small workshop was closed.
If the Xie family throws some money around, it will be enough for their parents to have enough food and clothing to enjoy their old age.
She was so immersed in her fantasy that she didn't even notice the people around her disperse.
Someone accidentally touched her, so she left awkwardly and immediately found a corner to hide.
She wants to wait for Xie Ru.
Xie Ru helped Su Muzhen lift the table. Knowing that Su Muzhen had to take care of the frightened customers, he consciously found a place to sit in a corner.
In order to express her apology, Su Muxin made another noodles for the customers.
The customers were also very generous and didn't care about the interruption just now.
Xie Ru sat there quietly, watching Su Muxin's every move.
I have to say that this woman is really a good wife and mother.
If ordinary people were to marry such a woman, they would be very happy.
After Su Mujin finished her work, she brought a bowl of sesame paste noodles and placed it in front of Xie Ru.
"Thank you, Mr. Xie. To express my gratitude, how about I ask you to try my noodles?"
Xie Ru glanced at the face in front of him and hesitated for a moment.
"What? You don't like to eat?" Su Muxin asked.
"No, it's just the first time I've seen such strange noodles, and I'm full of curiosity!" Xie Ru forced a smile.
In fact, Xie Ru was very resistant in his heart.
He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Since he was a child, he naturally looked down on such roadside stalls.
In his eyes, these are just garbage for the lower class to eat.
But right now, in order to impress the beautiful beauty, he couldn't refuse.
Otherwise, how can we wait for the moment when the beauty takes the initiative to throw herself into her arms.
Fortunately, his expression was well controlled and Su Muxin didn't notice any resistance.
He took a mouthful of sticky sesame sauce noodles and chewed it, and found that it tasted pretty good.
"The taste is very unique. Is it my lady's exclusive secret recipe?"
"Well, there is only one store, no branches!" Su Muxin was a little proud.
"Not bad, this noodles will definitely be very popular!"
"Thank you for your praise, Mr. Sir!"
"I'm just telling the truth. By the way, I've known the young lady for so long, but I still don't know her maiden name. I don't know if it's offensive to me."
"No offense, my name is Su Mujin."
"Oh, it turns out to be Miss Su!"
Su Mujin obviously wore her hair in a woman's bun, but Xie Ru called her a girl.
As a modern person, Su Muxin didn't care about anything inappropriate in this title.
During the chat, a customer ordered food, and Su Muxin got up to greet him.
At this time, the other three tables in the stall were full of customers, and Su Mujin kept her head down and busy.
Suddenly, a hand broke into her sight.
She looked up and saw two cadres collecting booth fees.
Without waiting for the Yamen to speak, Su Muxin consciously took out five cents and handed it to the Yamen.
"Put it away!"
The officer looked at the copper coins in his hand, but did not take them back.
Another cadre said: "As your stall expands, the stall fee will naturally increase!"
Su Mujin gritted her teeth in anger.
I really want to beat these two people out, but she is just a nobody and cannot be offended at all.
There is no other way, just continue to endure it.
"How many do the two officials need?"
"What do you mean, how many do we need?" The official was immediately furious.
Attracted a lot of people's attention.
When the people saw that the government officials were angry, no one dared to move. You could hear needles dropping all around.
Su Muxin realized that she had said something wrong and quickly corrected it.
"Master, don't be angry. The little girl said the wrong thing. How should I pay the stall fee?"
Only then did the two officials lose their anger.
"Shiwen!" one of them said.
"Okay!" Su Muxin took another five cents and put it in the Yamen's hand.
The cadre accepted the money with satisfaction, but was in no hurry to leave.
"Bring us two noodles!"
Is this the rhythm of freeloading?
Su Muxin continued to endure in order not to disturb the guests' meal.
The two officials saw a man occupying a table in the corner and walked straight over.
Because the man's back was turned to them, one of the officials slapped the man on the shoulder hard.
"You, get out of here, I want to eat!"
Listening to the boss's bossy tone, the man slowly turned around.
When the two officials saw each other's appearance, they were so frightened that their legs became weak and they immediately took a few steps back.
"Thank you...thank you, sir..."
Xie Ru's suffocating gaze was directed at the two of them, "Don't you have a soft tone?"
"Thank you, Master, we were wrong!"
"Wrong? You are so powerful! Keep playing and let me appreciate it!"
"I don't dare to do it anymore, little one!"
"Yes, I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore!"
Their hearts were beating wildly, thinking that this was over. If the news reached the county magistrate, their positions would not be guaranteed.
Seeing the Yamen being reprimanded by Xie Ru, Su Mujin felt secretly happy.
They finally met someone who can take care of them.
Xie Ru looked at Su Muxin and said, "Miss Su, how much did they charge you for the stall fee?"
Xie Ru heard their conversation just now, and guessed that these two cadres deceived their superiors and took advantage of their authority to charge more stall fees, so they must be punished.
"Five cents a day!"
"What?" Xie Ru frowned, "What a coward!"
The two officials quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Thank you, Master, we were wrong, please give us a chance to change!"
"Yes, yes, we are fooled by lard, we don't dare to do it anymore!"
"How are the stall fees at the market determined?" Xie Ru asked coldly.
"Five...five cents per month!" one of the cadres replied tremblingly.
"Knowing the law and breaking the law, I think you don't want to do it anymore."
The two officials knew clearly that the future county magistrate could not afford to offend him, so they continued to plead for mercy in order to protect their jobs.
"Thank you, Master, for giving us another chance to change our ways!"
"Yes, there are seniors and juniors among us, and we are all focused on this errand. Thank you for your kindness, Master!"
Xie Ru originally wanted to gain a good impression in front of Su Muxin, and didn't really want to do anything to the two yamen. Seeing that their attitudes were quite good, he lost some of his anger.
"Return all the overcharged money to Miss Su!"
