Ye Lulu hid behind Guan Chibei and said, “It’s so scary. I’m so scared.”
Everyone was speechless. “…”
?
“How dare you make a ruckus in front of me? Men, bring them back!” Lin Yuchen shouted at Brother Ba and ordered the officials to arrest these men and bring them back to the government.
He even ordered Wang Ba to fork out money on the spot and compensate Ye Lulu for the loss of her wooden cart and ingredients.
As for the old stall owner who had conspired with Wang Ba and the rest, he was so scared that he didn’t dare to show his head.
As everyone could testify on the spot, this matter was set in stone. Even Ye Lulu and the rest did not need to be present during the interrogation. They only needed to interrogate Wang Ba and the rest.
Wang Ba had compensated them with money, and the person who came forward to capture him was his distant cousin. It could be said that he was extremely aggrieved.
Lin Yuchen settled the matter on the spot. As there were many people around, he could only leave with Wang Ba and the rest without saying much to Ye Lulu and Guan Chibei.
As for Ye Lulu, she couldn’t do business anymore. The wooden cart was destroyed. She couldn’t repair the broken cart after it was kicked so many times. It was no different from making a new one.
Before Wang Ba was taken away, he vented his anger on Ye Lulu and Guan Chibei. “You just came out to set up a stall a few days ago. Now that your wooden cart is destroyed, you can no longer do business. I’ll see how you starve to death. You deserve it.”
There were other people at the scene as well. When they saw this, they discussed softly, “That’s true. This stall is already damaged. How can they continue doing business?”
“Tsk, tsk. The people in the mountains can’t afford to waste time. We don’t even know how long it took to make that wooden cart. It’s only been a few days, but it’s already broken. If they don’t open the stall for half a month, they’ll starve to death.”
“That man has to come out to the docks to do manual labor.”
“I heard that there’s more than one child. Last time, they met a rich mother-daughter pair. They said that there was more than one child. Tsk, tsk. That’s bad.”
“Isn’t this how farmers do business in the mountains? If they delay a few days, everything will be over.”
“They don’t have much money and can’t hold on at all. I think this Malatang is quite a fresh idea and tastes good.” A man shook his head and said with a regretful expression, “It looks like we might not be able to eat it again in the future.”
“How long do you think it will take to make another wooden cart like this?”
“They can’t set up a stall for at least half a month.”
“How tragic. This family will run out of food… What should they do?”
There were all kinds of words. Some were regretful, some were gloating, and some were sympathetic. Ye Lulu and the rest could only pack their things and go back.
When they passed by Mother Rong’s stall, the news of the county magistrate’s appearance had already spread throughout the entire docks. Mother Rong and the rest had also heard about the wooden cart. Mother Rong knew immediately that it belonged to them.
When Ye Lulu and the rest went over, Mother Rong was pale and looked like her soul was about to leave her body. She was stunned and could not cook congee anymore.
When Mother Rong saw Ye Lulu, she was shocked and immediately went forward to ask them what had happened in fear.
Ye Lulu said that something had indeed happened to their stall. A bully had come to cause trouble and destroyed their wooden cart. Later, the county magistrate happened to appear and took everyone away.
They were fine, but they could not set up a stall for the time being.
Mother Rong paused. She heard everyone saying that something had happened to the wooden cart stall.. She did not know what was going on and was scared to death.
