The facts are actually not complicated, and can be explained in a few sentences. Even if Fang Feng and Mr. Fang went to the restaurant to eat for free on this day, as an in-law of Rong'an Hall, he went to the restaurant to eat and drink, and he could not talk about emotions and reasons. What's the point of being freeloaders and having to collect money when entertaining relatives? But I couldn't help it. Every time Mr. Fang came here, he would always call for friends, dragging along a bunch of friends he knew in Beijing, as well as some helpers. Every time he had to occupy the best seat in the restaurant, order the most expensive dishes, and drink the best wine.
Hearing this, Hua Zhuo knew that his mother was really angry with his uncle for selling his ancestral land and marrying a merchant, and she was determined to make his uncle go to jail and suffer a lot, and then find ways to fish for him.
Fang said angrily: "You don't have to say good things for him. I don't know what kind of virtue he has. He was not a progressive person in the past. Now he has forgotten his ancestors and got a few coins and got carried away without a moment's notice. How can he know how to repent despite being taught a lesson?"
She briefly spoke briefly, and then continued: "I know that it involves human lives, and it is impossible for my uncle to escape guilt. I don't dare to let Mr. Jing Zhaoyin bend the law for personal gain, but after all, my uncle did not intend to kill anyone, but It was a mistake, and the deceased himself was not entirely at fault. What I mean is, can you please Mr. Jing Zhaoyin to postpone the finalization of the case and allow us to get to know the victim in private first, and then go to court for interrogation? Then we can decide what to do. Judgment."
"Sister Li and I are not familiar with each other, so I can only ask my sister to be a go-between. If possible, I would also ask my sister to say a few words for me. No matter what the outcome is, this is a great favor from my sister to me."
Cheng Ning was surprised when he heard someone reported that Hua Zhuo was coming. He hurriedly came out and said, "Weird thing. Didn't you leave Beijing yesterday? Why did you come back?"
"It's disrespectful to come here without permission. Please don't take offense to Sister Li."
Cheng Ning opened his eyes wide and said in shock: "Uncle Li is a selfless person. I'm afraid Sister Rong won't be able to say anything about this... But since you came to beg me, I have to help you. In this way, I will first I’ll take you to see Sister Rong first.”
As she said that, without waiting for Cheng Ning to ask in detail, she briefly explained the matter.
Well, even if Hua Zhuo had told him early in the morning to let him eat, the business of Jingzhong Restaurant was so good that he would not be overwhelmed by it. But these people just eat and drink, calling the waiters here and there, But it is extremely rare to see a reward. Sometimes the waiter runs a little slower and is scolded right away. It doesn't matter once or twice. But the gang like Chachawu comes every once in a while. The waiter is scolded a lot. He couldn't even get a single copper coin reward, so he had to do things like spitting in the vegetables, and mocking Mr. Fang for being a freeloader.
Shopkeeper Fang Da sighed and said: "It has been taken away. The old man is incompetent and could not keep his uncle. The body of the waiter has just been carried away. Now there is a police officer from Jingzhao Mansion. When asked about the confessions of several other guys present, the young lady can rest assured that the old man had already ordered them to say that they did not see my uncle hitting people with wine jars... "
Cheng Ning interjected: "Sister Rong, I'm afraid you can't help with this matter." Her heart was towards her sister-in-law-to-be, and she was afraid that Li Yurong would tell her the truth, so she quickly reminded her first.
"Sister Li and I are not familiar with each other, so I can only ask my sister to be a go-between. If possible, I would also ask my sister to say a few words for me. No matter what the outcome is, this is a great favor from my sister to me."
Hearing this, Hua Zhuo knew that his mother was really angry with his uncle for selling his ancestral land and marrying a merchant, and she was determined to make his uncle go to jail and suffer a lot, and then find ways to fish for him.
"Sister Li and I are not familiar with each other, so I can only ask my sister to be a go-between. If possible, I would also ask my sister to say a few words for me. No matter what the outcome is, this is a great favor from my sister to me."
Unfortunately, what this waiter did was seen, and what he said mocking Mr. Fang was also heard. He was a talkative man who was afraid of chaos in the world, so he only added to his jealousy. Mr. Fang, who was already drunk, thought he was insulted. He slapped the table, picked up a wine jar and threw it at the waiter.
Knowing that the matter was urgent, Cheng Ning also had a wind-like temper, so he immediately went to see Mr. Cheng. After receiving his approval, he took a car with Hua Zhuo and headed to the Li Mansion.
Cheng Ning opened his eyes wide and said in shock: "Uncle Li is a selfless person. I'm afraid Sister Rong won't be able to say anything about this... But since you came to beg me, I have to help you. In this way, I will first I’ll take you to see Sister Rong first.”
Aunt Liu responded and went on her own. Hua Zhuo also hurried back to Xiuge, tidied up a little, and then took the car to Cheng Mansion. Li Yurong, the daughter of Jing Zhaoyin, is Cheng Ning's prospective sister-in-law. Hua Zhuo has only met her once and is not very familiar with her. Therefore, it is not easy to find her directly. The best way is to find Cheng Ning as an intermediary. , for Cheng Ning’s sake, Li Yurong probably wouldn’t refuse. I just don’t know what Jing Zhaoyin’s temperament is, and whether Li Yurong can help is still unknown.
One of the waiters reached over and put his hand under the clerk's nose. His face turned pale. He just shouted "I'm out of breath" and ran away on the spot. The rest of the people immediately dispersed, leaving only the drunk Fang. The old man was still waving his fists, trying to cause trouble for the waiter, but he was held down by several government servants who happened to be passing by on patrol, hugged him, and took him to the Jingzhao Mansion government office.
"Sir, what do you think we should do about this matter? Why don't you prepare some money and go to Jingzhao Yin Yamen to take care of it? You can't really ignore your uncle. You should also take some money from the waiter to provide compensation. If you can make him If the family doesn't come forward to complain, maybe my uncle can still have a way to survive..." Grandma Liu suggested cautiously.
As she said that, without waiting for Cheng Ning to ask in detail, she briefly explained the matter.
The wine jar is not big, it can only hold two kilograms of water and wine at most, but the waiter is also a bit weak, so he tried to test the strength of the wine jar by holding the back of his head. Unfortunately, both sides suffered losses. The wine jar broke, and the waiter's back of the head was broken. A piece of it also collapsed, and he fell down on the spot.
Li Yurong was embroidering a pair of mandarin duck pillows. Her wedding date to the eldest son of the Cheng family had been set. It was in March, and seeing that the date was not far away, she rarely went out. She was preoccupied with preparing the dowry. I heard that Cheng Ning Coming hand in hand with Hua Zhuo, she was also startled, but without thinking too much, she enthusiastically invited the two girls into the small flower hall on one side of the Xiu Pavilion.
She is showing goodwill. The marriage between Rongantang and the Zhuang family can almost be said to benefit each other. One is a wealthy family and the other is an official roly-poly. They will definitely go further in the future. At least the Li family cannot compare. Jing Zhaoyin This official position controls the pure land at the feet of the emperor. It sounds important, but it is actually very offensive. Now the marriage between the Li family and the Cheng family is like climbing a big tree, but if you can get along well with the future mistress of the banker, it will naturally be more Only a fool would refuse Hua Zhuo's request if it was beneficial.
Aunt Liu responded and went on her own. Hua Zhuo also hurried back to Xiuge, tidied up a little, and then took the car to Cheng Mansion. Li Yurong, the daughter of Jing Zhaoyin, is Cheng Ning's prospective sister-in-law. Hua Zhuo has only met her once and is not very familiar with her. Therefore, it is not easy to find her directly. The best way is to find Cheng Ning as an intermediary. , for Cheng Ning’s sake, Li Yurong probably wouldn’t refuse. I just don’t know what Jing Zhaoyin’s temperament is, and whether Li Yurong can help is still unknown.
Li Yurong's heart sank, and at the same time, a look of contemplation appeared on his face.
Without mentioning the serious matter, Hua Zhuo started to apologize.
One of the waiters reached over and put his hand under the clerk's nose. His face turned pale. He just shouted "I'm out of breath" and ran away on the spot. The rest of the people immediately dispersed, leaving only the drunk Fang. The old man was still waving his fists, trying to cause trouble for the waiter, but he was held down by several government servants who happened to be passing by on patrol, hugged him, and took him to the Jingzhao Mansion government office.
Fang hesitated for a moment and then said, "Go ahead and do your best. There's no need to force it." After that, she said to Aunt Liu, "Invite all the waiter's family members and I'll talk to them personally." After a pause, he added, "Has my sister-in-law and nephew been notified of the matter? If anyone is there, please invite them as well."

Mrs. Fang glared and said, "Go on, what are you still doing standing here?"
Cheng Ning was surprised when he heard someone reported that Hua Zhuo was coming. He hurriedly came out and said, "Weird thing. Didn't you leave Beijing yesterday? Why did you come back?"

Shopkeeper Fang Da came after hearing the news and quickly stopped him. While dealing with these government officials, he sent someone to report the news to Taiyechi's old house.
Halfway through the journey, the car turned in the direction of Jingzhong Restaurant. Hua Zhuo felt unsure. Although Fang didn't let her go to the restaurant to show her face, she still felt uneasy until she understood the current situation.

Halfway through the journey, the car turned in the direction of Jingzhong Restaurant. Hua Zhuo felt unsure. Although Fang didn't let her go to the restaurant to show her face, she still felt uneasy until she understood the current situation.
Mrs. Fang said with a sullen face: "I don't care what he does for the good deeds he did. You take two hundred taels of silver from the account and give it to the waiter's family as a pension, and tell them that if they want to pay for their lives with their lives, Beijing will pay for it with their lives." All the waiters at the Chinese Restaurant can testify on their behalf..."
She briefly spoke briefly, and then continued: "I know that it involves human lives, and it is impossible for my uncle to escape guilt. I don't dare to let Mr. Jing Zhaoyin bend the law for personal gain, but after all, my uncle did not intend to kill anyone, but It was a mistake, and the deceased himself was not entirely at fault. What I mean is, can you please Mr. Jing Zhaoyin to postpone the finalization of the case and allow us to get to know the victim in private first, and then go to court for interrogation? Then we can decide what to do. Judgment."
Hearing this, Hua Zhuo knew that his mother was really angry with his uncle for selling his ancestral land and marrying a merchant, and she was determined to make his uncle go to jail and suffer a lot, and then find ways to fish for him.
This was obviously an angry statement. How could Grandma Liu not understand it? She lowered her head and said nothing.
Hua Zhuo hurriedly came out to smooth things over and said: "Mom, this pension money must be given, but we have to understand the situation first. If we say this, we can't blame it entirely on my uncle. The waiter spit in the food. , and you are talking behind someone’s back, so you can’t do anything to anyone else, and my uncle doesn’t intend to beat someone to death... Why don’t you let your daughter go to the restaurant first?"
"Thank you to the great shopkeeper, the official. Please also ask the shopkeeper to take care of it. The money will be withdrawn directly from the counter. I will explain this matter to my mother later."
Hua Zhuo said hurriedly: "Mom, my daughter has had a relationship with Jingzhao Yin's daughter. Why don't I ask her for help and see if she can help smooth things over so that Jingzhao Mansion doesn't rush to finalize the case."
Li Yurong was also a Hui Zhilan. When she heard this, she knew that it was Hua Zhuo who wanted to ask for something and invited Cheng Ning to be the lobbyist. He immediately smiled and said: "You can come, it's too late for me to be happy, what are you talking about?" Without being presumptuous, I heard that you got engaged to the banker a few days ago, and we will be sisters for a long time in the future."
Hua Zhuo was not in the mood to explain to her, so he directly took her hand and said, "I will explain this to you later. Sister Cheng, I came to visit today because I have something to ask for."
"Sister Li and I are not familiar with each other, so I can only ask my sister to be a go-between. If possible, I would also ask my sister to say a few words for me. No matter what the outcome is, this is a great favor from my sister to me."

I heard Mrs. Fang continue to say: "Why are you going to the restaurant? We just got engaged, and the most important thing is to avoid suspicion. If you show your face, what will it say to others?"
The originally bustling restaurant was deserted due to a murder case. Two government officials were guarding the door and no one was allowed in. Hua Zhuo hesitated for a moment, didn't get out of the car, went around to the back door, and then sent someone. The servants went in and informed shopkeeper Fang Da.

"
Li Yurong pondered for a while and then said: "My father never allows my family to interfere with the affairs of the Yamen. Let's do this. The two sisters will sit here with me for a while while I go to discuss this matter with my mother."
After giving the instructions, Hua Zhuo no longer delayed and asked the coachman to drive to Cheng Mansion as quickly as possible.
Hua Zhuo said hurriedly: "Mom, my daughter has had a relationship with Jingzhao Yin's daughter. Why don't I ask her for help and see if she can help smooth things over so that Jingzhao Mansion doesn't rush to finalize the case."

As long as the case is not finalized, enough money is given to the waiter's family, and the perpetrator is not held accountable. Several more witnesses are produced in the restaurant, proving that the waiter was at fault first. Fang Xiaohe just accidentally injured someone and died. Although he cannot escape punishment, At least you can save your life.

Aunt Liu responded and went on her own. Hua Zhuo also hurried back to Xiuge, tidied up a little, and then took the car to Cheng Mansion. Li Yurong, the daughter of Jing Zhaoyin, is Cheng Ning's prospective sister-in-law. Hua Zhuo has only met her once and is not very familiar with her. Therefore, it is not easy to find her directly.

"Sister Li and I are not familiar with each other, so I can only ask my sister to be a go-between. If possible, I would also ask my sister to say a few words for me. No matter what the outcome is, this is a great favor from my sister to me."
Mrs. Fang glared and said, "Go on, what are you still doing standing here?"
Shopkeeper Fang Da came after hearing the news and quickly stopped him. While dealing with these government officials, he sent someone to report the news to Taiyechi's old house.
"Thank you to the great shopkeeper, the official. Please also ask the shopkeeper to take care of it. The money will be withdrawn directly from the counter. I will explain this matter to my mother later."
As long as the case is not finalized, enough money is given to the waiter's family, and the perpetrator is not held accountable. Several more witnesses are produced in the restaurant, proving that the waiter was at fault first. Fang Xiaohe just accidentally injured someone and died. Although he cannot escape punishment, At least you can save your life.
She briefly spoke briefly, and then continued: "I know that it involves human lives, and it is impossible for my uncle to escape guilt. I don't dare to let Mr. Jing Zhaoyin bend the law for personal gain, but after all, my uncle did not intend to kill anyone, but It was a mistake, and the deceased himself was not entirely at fault. What I mean is, can you please Mr. Jing Zhaoyin to postpone the finalization of the case and allow us to get to know the victim in private first, and then go to court for interrogation? Then we can decide what to do. Judgment."
Naturally, Hua Zhuo wouldn't blame Cheng Ning for talking too much. She just came to Li Yurong with a precautionary attitude, and immediately said: "If Sister Li is in trouble, it's okay to ignore it. The thing is like this... "
She is showing goodwill. The marriage between Rongantang and the Zhuang family can almost be said to benefit each other. One is a wealthy family and the other is an official roly-poly. They will definitely go further in the future. At least the Li family cannot compare. Jing Zhaoyin This official position controls the pure land at the feet of the emperor. It sounds important, but it is actually very offensive. Now the marriage between the Li family and the Cheng family is like climbing a big tree, but if you can get along well with the future mistress of the banker, it will naturally be more Only a fool would refuse Hua Zhuo's request if it was beneficial.
The originally bustling restaurant was deserted due to a murder case. Two government officials were guarding the door and no one was allowed in. Hua Zhuo hesitated for a moment, didn't get out of the car, went around to the back door, and then sent someone. The servants went in and informed shopkeeper Fang Da.
Hua Zhuo was not in the mood to explain to her, so he directly took her hand and said, "I will explain this to you later. Sister Cheng, I came to visit today because I have something to ask for."

Fang said angrily: "You don't have to say good things for him. I don't know what kind of virtue he has. He was not a progressive person in the past. Now he has forgotten his ancestors and got a few coins and got carried away without a moment's notice. How can he know how to repent despite being taught a lesson?"

Shopkeeper Fang Da sighed and said: "It has been taken away. The old man is incompetent and could not keep his uncle. The body of the waiter has just been carried away. Now there is a police officer from Jingzhao Mansion. When asked about the confessions of several other guys present, the young lady can rest assured that the old man had already ordered them to say that they did not see my uncle hitting people with wine jars... "

Then we can decide what to do. Judgment."
Shopkeeper Fang Da came out soon, saluted to the car door, and said: "It's my fault that I disturbed the lady. There is a lot of inconvenience in the restaurant at this time. Please stay in the car and don't get out."
Mrs. Fang said with a sullen face: "I don't care what he does for the good deeds he did. You take two hundred taels of silver from the account and give it to the waiter's family as a pension, and tell them that if they want to pay for their lives with their lives, Beijing will pay for it with their lives." All the waiters at the Chinese Restaurant can testify on their behalf..."
Hua Zhuo hurriedly came out to smooth things over and said: "Mom, this pension money must be given, but we have to understand the situation first. If we say this, we can't blame it entirely on my uncle. The waiter spit in the food. , and you are talking behind someone’s back, so you can’t do anything to anyone else, and my uncle doesn’t intend to beat someone to death... Why don’t you let your daughter go to the restaurant first?"
As she said that, without waiting for Cheng Ning to ask in detail, she briefly explained the matter.
Hua Zhuo asked in a calm voice: "How is the situation now? Has uncle been escorted to Jingzhao Mansion?"
"Sister Li and I are not familiar with each other, so I can only ask my sister to be a go-between. If possible, I would also ask my sister to say a few words for me. No matter what the outcome is, this is a great favor from my sister to me."
Cheng Ning interjected: "Sister Rong, I'm afraid you can't help with this matter." Her heart was towards her sister-in-law-to-be, and she was afraid that Li Yurong would tell her the truth, so she quickly reminded her first.
The wine jar is not big, it can only hold two kilograms of water and wine at most, but the waiter is also a bit weak, so he tried to test the strength of the wine jar by holding the back of his head. Unfortunately, both sides suffered losses. The wine jar broke, and the waiter's back of the head was broken. A piece of it also collapsed, and he fell down on the spot.
Without mentioning the serious matter, Hua Zhuo started to apologize.

When asked about the confessions of several other guys present, the young lady can rest assured that the old man had already ordered them to say that they did not see my uncle hitting people with wine jars... "
Li Yurong pondered for a while and then said: "My father never allows my family to interfere with the affairs of the Yamen. Let's do this. The two sisters will sit here with me for a while while I go to discuss this matter with my mother."
Naturally, Hua Zhuo wouldn't blame Cheng Ning for talking too much. She just came to Li Yurong with a precautionary attitude, and immediately said: "If Sister Li is in trouble, it's okay to ignore it. The thing is like this... "
"Thank you to the great shopkeeper, the official. Please also ask the shopkeeper to take care of it. The money will be withdrawn directly from the counter. I will explain this matter to my mother later."

Aunt Liu responded and went on her own. Hua Zhuo also hurried back to Xiuge, tidied up a little, and then took the car to Cheng Mansion. Li Yurong, the daughter of Jing Zhaoyin, is Cheng Ning's prospective sister-in-law. Hua Zhuo has only met her once and is not very familiar with her. Therefore, it is not easy to find her directly. The best way is to find Cheng Ning as an intermediary. , for Cheng Ning’s sake, Li Yurong probably wouldn’t refuse. I just don’t know what Jing Zhaoyin’s temperament is, and whether Li Yurong can help is still unknown.
Well, even if Hua Zhuo had told him early in the morning to let him eat, the business of Jingzhong Restaurant was so good that he would not be overwhelmed by it. But these people just eat and drink, calling the waiters here and there, But it is extremely rare to see a reward. Sometimes the waiter runs a little slower and is scolded right away. It doesn't matter once or twice. But the gang like Chachawu comes every once in a while. The waiter is scolded a lot. He couldn't even get a single copper coin reward, so he had to do things like spitting in the vegetables, and mocking Mr. Fang for being a freeloader.
Li Yurong was embroidering a pair of mandarin duck pillows. Her wedding date to the eldest son of the Cheng family had been set. It was in March, and seeing that the date was not far away, she rarely went out. She was preoccupied with preparing the dowry. I heard that Cheng Ning Coming hand in hand with Hua Zhuo, she was also startled, but without thinking too much, she enthusiastically invited the two girls into the small flower hall on one side of the Xiu Pavilion.
"Thank you to the great shopkeeper, the official. Please also ask the shopkeeper to take care of it. The money will be withdrawn directly from the counter. I will explain this matter to my mother later."
Li Yurong pondered for a while and then said: "My father never allows my family to interfere with the affairs of the Yamen. Let's do this. The two sisters will sit here with me for a while while I go to discuss this matter with my mother."

Knowing that the matter was urgent, Cheng Ning also had a wind-like temper, so he immediately went to see Mr. Cheng. After receiving his approval, he took a car with Hua Zhuo and headed to the Li Mansion.
Naturally, Hua Zhuo wouldn't blame Cheng Ning for talking too much. She just came to Li Yurong with a precautionary attitude, and immediately said: "If Sister Li is in trouble, it's okay to ignore it. The thing is like this... "
After giving the instructions, Hua Zhuo no longer delayed and asked the coachman to drive to Cheng Mansion as quickly as possible.
Cheng Ning was surprised when he heard someone reported that Hua Zhuo was coming. He hurriedly came out and said, "Weird thing. Didn't you leave Beijing yesterday? Why did you come back?"
Li Yurong's heart sank, and at the same time, a look of contemplation appeared on his face.

"It's disrespectful to come here without permission. Please don't take offense to Sister Li."
"Thank you to the great shopkeeper, the official. Please also ask the shopkeeper to take care of it. The money will be withdrawn directly from the counter. I will explain this matter to my mother later."
Mrs. Fang glared and said, "Go on, what are you still doing standing here?"

The waiter spit in the food. , and you are talking behind someone’s back, so you can’t do anything to anyone else, and my uncle doesn’t intend to beat someone to death... Why don’t you let your daughter go to the restaurant first?"
Hua Zhuo said hurriedly: "Mom, my daughter has had a relationship with Jingzhao Yin's daughter. Why don't I ask her for help and see if she can help smooth things over so that Jingzhao Mansion doesn't rush to finalize the case."
Fang hesitated for a moment and then said, "Go ahead and do your best. There's no need to force it." After that, she said to Aunt Liu, "Invite all the waiter's family members and I'll talk to them personally." After a pause, he added, "Has my sister-in-law and nephew been notified of the matter? If anyone is there, please invite them as well."
As she said that, without waiting for Cheng Ning to ask in detail, she briefly explained the matter.
"Sir, what do you think we should do about this matter? Why don't you prepare some money and go to Jingzhao Yin Yamen to take care of it? You can't really ignore your uncle. You should also take some money from the waiter to provide compensation. If you can make him If the family doesn't come forward to complain, maybe my uncle can still have a way to survive..." Grandma Liu suggested cautiously.
Knowing that the matter was urgent, Cheng Ning also had a wind-like temper, so he immediately went to see Mr. Cheng. After receiving his approval, he took a car with Hua Zhuo and headed to the Li Mansion.

Li Yurong's heart sank, and at the same time, a look of contemplation appeared on his face.
Without mentioning the serious matter, Hua Zhuo started to apologize.
Cheng Ning opened his eyes wide and said in shock: "Uncle Li is a selfless person. I'm afraid Sister Rong won't be able to say anything about this... But since you came to beg me, I have to help you. In this way, I will first I’ll take you to see Sister Rong first.”
This was obviously an angry statement. How could Grandma Liu not understand it? She lowered her head and said nothing.
Hua Zhuo asked in a calm voice: "How is the situation now? Has uncle been escorted to Jingzhao Mansion?"
Cheng Ning was surprised when he heard someone reported that Hua Zhuo was coming. He hurriedly came out and said, "Weird thing. Didn't you leave Beijing yesterday? Why did you come back?"

As she said that, without waiting for Cheng Ning to ask in detail, she briefly explained the matter.
Hearing this, Hua Zhuo knew that his mother was really angry with his uncle for selling his ancestral land and marrying a merchant, and she was determined to make his uncle go to jail and suffer a lot, and then find ways to fish for him.
Li Yurong pondered for a while and then said: "My father never allows my family to interfere with the affairs of the Yamen. Let's do this. The two sisters will sit here with me for a while while I go to discuss this matter with my mother."

"Thank you to the great shopkeeper, the official. Please also ask the shopkeeper to take care of it. The money will be withdrawn directly from the counter. I will explain this matter to my mother later."
The facts are actually not complicated, and can be explained in a few sentences. Even if Fang Feng and Mr. Fang went to the restaurant to eat for free on this day, as an in-law of Rong'an Hall, he went to the restaurant to eat and drink, and he could not talk about emotions and reasons. What's the point of being freeloaders and having to collect money when entertaining relatives? But I couldn't help it. Every time Mr. Fang came here, he would always call for friends, dragging along a bunch of friends he knew in Beijing, as well as some helpers. Every time he had to occupy the best seat in the restaurant, order the most expensive dishes, and drink the best wine.
Well, even if Hua Zhuo had told him early in the morning to let him eat, the business of Jingzhong Restaurant was so good that he would not be overwhelmed by it. But these people just eat and drink, calling the waiters here and there, But it is extremely rare to see a reward. Sometimes the waiter runs a little slower and is scolded right away.

He couldn't even get a single copper coin reward, so he had to do things like spitting in the vegetables, and mocking Mr. Fang for being a freeloader.
I heard Mrs. Fang continue to say: "Why are you going to the restaurant? We just got engaged, and the most important thing is to avoid suspicion. If you show your face, what will it say to others?"
Li Yurong was embroidering a pair of mandarin duck pillows. Her wedding date to the eldest son of the Cheng family had been set. It was in March, and seeing that the date was not far away, she rarely went out. She was preoccupied with preparing the dowry.

Hua Zhuo was not in the mood to explain to her, so he directly took her hand and said, "I will explain this to you later. Sister Cheng, I came to visit today because I have something to ask for."
Unfortunately, what this waiter did was seen, and what he said mocking Mr. Fang was also heard. He was a talkative man who was afraid of chaos in the world, so he only added to his jealousy. Mr. Fang, who was already drunk, thought he was insulted. He slapped the table, picked up a wine jar and threw it at the waiter.

Hua Zhuo asked in a calm voice: "How is the situation now? Has uncle been escorted to Jingzhao Mansion?"
Li Yurong was also a Hui Zhilan. When she heard this, she knew that it was Hua Zhuo who wanted to ask for something and invited Cheng Ning to be the lobbyist. He immediately smiled and said: "You can come, it's too late for me to be happy, what are you talking about?" Without being presumptuous, I heard that you got engaged to the banker a few days ago, and we will be sisters for a long time in the future."
One of the waiters reached over and put his hand under the clerk's nose. His face turned pale. He just shouted "I'm out of breath" and ran away on the spot. The rest of the people immediately dispersed, leaving only the drunk Fang. The old man was still waving his fists, trying to cause trouble for the waiter, but he was held down by several government servants who happened to be passing by on patrol, hugged him, and took him to the Jingzhao Mansion government office.
Cheng Ning opened his eyes wide and said in shock: "Uncle Li is a selfless person. I'm afraid Sister Rong won't be able to say anything about this... But since you came to beg me, I have to help you. In this way, I will first I’ll take you to see Sister Rong first.”

The best way is to find Cheng Ning as an intermediary. , for Cheng Ning’s sake, Li Yurong probably wouldn’t refuse. I just don’t know what Jing Zhaoyin’s temperament is, and whether Li Yurong can help is still unknown.
"It's disrespectful to come here without permission. Please don't take offense to Sister Li."
Naturally, Hua Zhuo wouldn't blame Cheng Ning for talking too much. She just came to Li Yurong with a precautionary attitude, and immediately said: "If Sister Li is in trouble, it's okay to ignore it. The thing is like this... "
Hua Zhuo was not in the mood to explain to her, so he directly took her hand and said, "I will explain this to you later. Sister Cheng, I came to visit today because I have something to ask for."
She briefly spoke briefly, and then continued: "I know that it involves human lives, and it is impossible for my uncle to escape guilt. I don't dare to let Mr. Jing Zhaoyin bend the law for personal gain, but after all, my uncle did not intend to kill anyone, but It was a mistake, and the deceased himself was not entirely at fault. What I mean is, can you please Mr. Jing Zhaoyin to postpone the finalization of the case and allow us to get to know the victim in private first, and then go to court for interrogation? Then we can decide what to do. Judgment."

After giving the instructions, Hua Zhuo no longer delayed and asked the coachman to drive to Cheng Mansion as quickly as possible.
Fang hesitated for a moment and then said, "Go ahead and do your best. There's no need to force it." After that, she said to Aunt Liu, "Invite all the waiter's family members and I'll talk to them personally." After a pause, he added, "Has my sister-in-law and nephew been notified of the matter? If anyone is there, please invite them as well."
Hua Zhuo hurriedly came out to smooth things over and said: "Mom, this pension money must be given, but we have to understand the situation first. If we say this, we can't blame it entirely on my uncle. The waiter spit in the food. , and you are talking behind someone’s back, so you can’t do anything to anyone else, and my uncle doesn’t intend to beat someone to death... Why don’t you let your daughter go to the restaurant first?"
The wine jar is not big, it can only hold two kilograms of water and wine at most, but the waiter is also a bit weak, so he tried to test the strength of the wine jar by holding the back of his head. Unfortunately, both sides suffered losses. The wine jar broke, and the waiter's back of the head was broken. A piece of it also collapsed, and he fell down on the spot.
Li Yurong pondered for a while and then said: "My father never allows my family to interfere with the affairs of the Yamen. Let's do this. The two sisters will sit here with me for a while while I go to discuss this matter with my mother."
Hua Zhuo said hurriedly: "Mom, my daughter has had a relationship with Jingzhao Yin's daughter. Why don't I ask her for help and see if she can help smooth things over so that Jingzhao Mansion doesn't rush to finalize the case."
Cheng Ning was surprised when he heard someone reported that Hua Zhuo was coming. He hurriedly came out and said, "Weird thing. Didn't you leave Beijing yesterday? Why did you come back?"
Li Yurong was embroidering a pair of mandarin duck pillows. Her wedding date to the eldest son of the Cheng family had been set. It was in March, and seeing that the date was not far away, she rarely went out. She was preoccupied with preparing the dowry. I heard that Cheng Ning Coming hand in hand with Hua Zhuo, she was also startled, but without thinking too much, she enthusiastically invited the two girls into the small flower hall on one side of the Xiu Pavilion.
"Sir, what do you think we should do about this matter? Why don't you prepare some money and go to Jingzhao Yin Yamen to take care of it? You can't really ignore your uncle. You should also take some money from the waiter to provide compensation. If you can make him If the family doesn't come forward to complain, maybe my uncle can still have a way to survive..." Grandma Liu suggested cautiously.
Cheng Ning opened his eyes wide and said in shock: "Uncle Li is a selfless person. I'm afraid Sister Rong won't be able to say anything about this... But since you came to beg me, I have to help you. In this way, I will first I’ll take you to see Sister Rong first.”
Unfortunately, what this waiter did was seen, and what he said mocking Mr. Fang was also heard. He was a talkative man who was afraid of chaos in the world, so he only added to his jealousy. Mr. Fang, who was already drunk, thought he was insulted. He slapped the table, picked up a wine jar and threw it at the waiter.
