Feiyun shook his head and said: "Girl, you are too worried. We passed by your restaurant because we just wanted to have a meal and had no other intentions. Unexpectedly, Uncle Yang and Ding Shaoxia deliberately made things difficult for us. It was a pure misunderstanding!"
Naturally, Wu Mei knew the whole story and quickly pretended to ask Ding Gu. When Ding Gu saw Wu Mei, he didn't know how to explain it. Yang Feng immediately said that he wanted to compete with Feiyun and others in martial arts and did not care about Ding Gu's affairs.
When Liangchen saw this, he smiled and said: "Sister Charming, my brother is embarrassed to say it, so I will let my maid do it for you!" Then Liangchen told the story vividly.
The more Wu Mei listened, the darker her pink face became. She was extremely angry with Ding Gu and blamed him for being ignorant. Ding Gu just had a grudge with a gambling house, and then offended Feiyun. It was really too reckless. Ding Gu's actions made the restaurant suffer from enemies on both sides.
Wu Mei glared at Ding Gu. Due to the crowd being present, she couldn't scold him, so she turned to Feiyun and said, "Young Master Lin, here are some distinguished officials. We should have shown our friendship as landlords. But my cousin has offended you. I Apologize for him! I will hold a big feast someday to apologize to you! As for the bet, since we lost, we should give it away. Come, take a hundred taels of gold and give it to the three of you!" Ru Ge agreed behind her, Turn around and leave.
Feiyun didn't want to completely fall out with Wu Mei, so he replied: "Miss Wu Mei, that's not necessary. The bet is my little sister's joke, don't take it seriously. We have been disturbing you for a long time, so we'll leave now!"
Charming shook her head and said: "The rules of the world are that you must do what you say. This may be Miss Liangchen's personal meaning, but we agreed after all. We naturally accept it. Please wait a moment."
Liangchen didn't wait for Feiyun to answer, and said first: "Sister Charming, you have to inform us when you are ready for the banquet. You also know that my eldest brother doesn't care about what he eats, but I am famous for my gluttony." Charming is very good. I admire Liangchen's cleverness, wit and sharp tongue. I feel very happy when I see Liangchen shouting like a sister.
Of course, in terms of age, Wu Mei is the same as Tian Xiang, and is more than enough to be a good sister. Charming smile and said: "Miss Liangchen loves food, I have heard about it a long time ago. If you are interested, girls, you can come to the restaurant to taste it at any time. I won't take any money, just treat it as my treat!" Liangchen bowed his hand and said, "That's it. , sister, thank you very much, sister!”
At this moment, the charming personal maid Ru Ge brought out a box of gold. Charming then said: "Ru Ge, please give the gold to Miss Mei Mei!" Ru Ge responded and slowly came to Mei Mei and said: "Sister Mei Mei, please check it!"
However, Mei Mei did not accept it immediately. She glanced at Feiyun and asked him if he wanted to accept the gold. Before Feiyun could say anything, Liangchen stepped forward and took it, saying, "Thank you, girl!" Ru Ge said, "You're welcome," and turned back to Wu Mei.
Liangchen weighed the box and then said to Wumei: "Thank you, little sister, for the gift!" Wumei saw that Liangchen was pretending to be greedy and didn't find it funny, so she replied: "You deserve this. If I were If I don’t give it to you, with the girl’s eloquent tongue, I’m afraid it won’t be long before the whole of Luoyang knows that the singing and dancing restaurant is not admitting its debt!”
Although Yang Charming's words were implicitly sarcastic, Liangchen didn't care at all. Instead, he said happily: "It seems that my two magical powers of delicious food and talkativeness are quite famous. Even my sister knows them very well. It really makes me deeply honored." !”
When Feiyun saw that night was falling, he said, "Miss Charming, it's getting late. We have some important things to do, so we'll say goodbye and see you later." After saying that, he cupped his hands towards Charming, turned around and walked out the door. Tianxiang and others hurriedly follow.
The five people from Feiyun left the restaurant, and not far away, a group of people came towards them. Some of these people held torches, and most of them held weapons. Liangchen said immediately: "Brother, I guess they are from the gambling shop. Why don't we watch how they fight, what do you think?"
Feiyun knew nothing about the gambling houses, so of course he wanted to take the opportunity to get to know them. Besides, he also wanted to know the outcome of the battle between the singing and dancing restaurant and the gambling house. Feiyun immediately nodded in agreement and quietly walked to the roadside with the four of them.
Feiyun looked from a distance and saw a tall man in his fifties walking ahead. This person was Niu Ba, the owner of the gambling house. Following him were two shopkeepers, and behind him was Hong Chong, another nursing home instructor.
It turned out that after Niu Ba learned that his son had been detained by the restaurant, he was furious and rushed out. He led all the masters and thugs from the gambling house and went straight to the restaurant. He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity and occupy the restaurant in one fell swoop.
Niu Ba and others quickly arrived at the door of the restaurant, and Hu Yanping immediately shouted inside: "People inside, listen, send my young master out. Otherwise, we will rush in and start a killing spree!" Everyone in the gambling house shouted He stopped shouting at the door, but didn't want to do anything inside the restaurant. If there was a fight in a restaurant, everything inside would be beaten to pieces. Niu Ba couldn't bear to part with it, because he already regarded the restaurant as his.
As soon as Hu Yanping finished speaking, Wu Mei and the people from the restaurant rushed out. Wu Mei stood first, flanked by Ding Gu, Yang Feng and the other guys. Wu Mei glanced at Niu Ba and the others, and motioned for Ding Gu to answer.
Ding Gu took a step forward and shouted: "Who are you and what's the matter with you here?"
Hu Yanping was furious and said: "Ding Gu, open your dog eyes. My master has come in person, and you dare to pretend that you don't know him! Where are my young master and Coach Fan? Why don't you send them out obediently?"
Ding Gu has always been in charge of the restaurant, so people from all factions in the city know him, but few people know Wu Mei. Therefore, as soon as Ding Gu showed up, Hu Yanping directly asked him for someone. After Feiyun left, Wumei knew that the gambling house would arrive soon, so she discussed a countermeasure. Wu Mei showed weakness to Fei Yun just now, but she didn't want to get entangled with Fei Yun.
After hearing Hu Yanping's words, Ding Gu pretended to be surprised and said, "It turns out that the owner of Niufang is here! It was too dark, so I didn't recognize him for a moment. Are you talking about Niu Xiong? He caused trouble for no reason in the restaurant. Beat the restaurant to a pulp. How can I let him out!" Hu Yanping said: "This is easy to handle. We will compensate according to the price. Now you let my young master and Coach Fan go!"
Ding Gu snorted coldly and said: "Hu Yanping, what you said is too easy! Can we just compensate according to the price? His misbehavior has caused a lot of losses to the restaurant, and it cannot be done with simple compensation!" Hu Yanping shouted: "What do you want?"
Ding Gu pretended to think about it and said: "First, you have to pay a thousand taels of gold. Second, Niu Xiong has to kowtow to us in public to apologize. Third, I want you to swear in public that you will not retaliate in the future!"
When Hu Yanping heard this, he was so angry that he roared: "Little thief, who do you think you are? You actually made such a request, do you want us to destroy your restaurant?" The gambling house's reaction had already been reflected in Ding Gu's. As expected, this is also the result they expected. Ding Gu was not angry because of this, but said calmly: "If you don't agree, we will naturally not let him go. If there are no accidents, we will send them both to the government tomorrow, and the government will determine the merits!"
Ding Gu's plain words contained a mystery. Niu Xiong and Fan Sheng were detained in a restaurant for a night. Who can guarantee that the restaurant would not use tricks to kill their children, and then it can be said that they fell or were killed when they escaped. Gambling houses have always had a bad reputation. If Niu Ba hadn't paid bribes to the prefect every year, his gambling house would have been closed down by the government long ago. Now that King Liang has temporarily lost power, Niu Ba never paid attention to the prefect before. Therefore, Niu Ba can't expect the prefect to help him. It's lucky that the prefect doesn't add insult to injury and take advantage of the situation!
Hu Yanping was stunned, thinking that with Ding Gu's attitude, there seemed to be no outcome, so he had to be tough. He couldn't make the decision, so he could only look at Niu Ba. Niu Ba snorted coldly, stepped forward in person, and said, "Little thief, are you really unwilling to let me go?"
When Ding Gu saw Niu Ba finally come forward, he snorted coldly and said: "Niu Ba, you have raised such a wicked young man who does evil. Instead of going home to reflect, you dare to insult me. Don't say that you are just a gambling shop owner. Even if you are a king, Now that I’m here, I have to give us justice before we can let him go!”
Ding Gu deliberately angered Niu Ba, so he spoke rudely. As expected, Niu Ba was so angry that he shouted loudly: "You don't know how to live or die, come here, rush in and snatch people out!" As soon as he said this, everyone in the gambling house agreed in unison, raised their weapons, and were about to step forward. .
Ding Gu didn't show any weakness, and shouted loudly: "Everyone, listen, if anyone approaches the restaurant, shoot and kill him!" Suddenly a group of people rushed out of the restaurant, weapons in hand, ready to fight. Niu Ba took a closer look and saw that the number of people on the other side was far more than the people he brought to the gambling house, and he couldn't help but take a breath.
Niu Ba didn't expect that there were so many waiters in this restaurant. Naturally, he didn't know that most of these people had just been brought here. Niu Ba originally wanted to bully the few and win the restaurant in one fell swoop. At this moment, the other party has more people and strength, and his side seems to be weak. Although Niu Ba was confident in the martial arts of himself and the two shopkeepers, since the other party was able to capture Fan Sheng and Niu Xiong alive, it showed that there were people with strong martial arts skills. Thinking of this, Niu Ba inevitably felt a little hesitant. But he couldn't show weakness and retreat, so he could only bite the bullet and lead everyone forward.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a voice shouting: "Wait a minute, I have something to say, why bother!" Niu Ba followed the sound and saw a person walking out from behind Yang Xuefeng. I saw that she was about 20 years old, with bright eyes, white teeth, skin like snow, graceful figure, and radiant figure. She was actually a stunning beauty. Niu Ba couldn't help but be stunned! The person who came was naturally charming, and seeing that the two sides were about to get into a fight, this was not the outcome she had hoped for. Because in that case, even if they win the gambling house, the restaurant will suffer heavy casualties. Wu Mei saw that Niu Ba was afraid, so she stopped him.
Charming walked slowly to Yang Xuefeng, bowed her hands to Niu Ba, and said, "You are the boss of Niu Ba, right? I wonder if you can listen to a few words from this little lady?"
