"Boss, since you didn't ask, I didn't tell you. I'm afraid if I tell you, you'll think I didn't do a good job in the store and I won't be able to stay here."
Kong Xiulan was a little embarrassed. It was not easy to find a job in the county town, so she could only muddle along for now.
"We will discuss this topic later. You should first explain what you know to Officer Zhao."
Yang Lina opened her mouth calmly, she was a person who could distinguish between public and private affairs, one was one, two was two.
"Hello, Officer Zhao, this is what happened. I hope you can investigate clearly."
After Kong Xiulan finished speaking, Officer Zhao continued: "Okay, I already know the details, but you didn't hear clearly at the time. We need to further investigate the specific situation."
After Officer Zhao finished speaking, his eyes fell on Yang Lina's face.
"Ms. Yang, please come with us to the police station. We will make a record."
"Okay, I'll go with you right away."
Several people came out of the back kitchen, and the people eating in front watched the joke in horror. Now every table was given a plate of fresh beef, and everyone started eating intermittently.
Before going out, Yang Lina said to all the customers: "Everyone, I'm really sorry for today. You eat slowly and make sure to eat and drink well."
"Go and go about your business. As long as nothing happens, you and everyone will be fine."
"Yes, yes, hurry up and get busy."
Yang Lina smiled lightly and then left the restaurant.
"Sister Yang..."
Liu Zhaodi was a little worried and chased after Yang Lina with a worried look on his face.
"Don't worry, it's okay. I'm just going to take notes. Please help me take care of the store and be smart."
Yang Lina warned, Liu Zhaodi nodded.
The car that the police station drove was a large truck. Yang Lina sat in the car and said to the four people.
"You haven't paid me the meal money you owe me. The total for the two of you is thirty-four yuan and sixty cents. Should I pay it now or when we get to the police station later?"
When Yang Lina finished speaking, the woman's face suddenly darkened.
"What? You, a shady boss like you, still want me to pay for the meal? It's already pretty good since we didn't ask you for money.
Comrade police, do you think this is true?"
The woman said, and then said to Officer Zhao.
"Sister, I respect you for not searching your bag in front of so many people in the store. Now that the police comrades are here, you said they searched your bag and found toothpaste. How do you explain it?"
Yang Lina had an indifferent look on her face. She had to take back all the money she deserved.
If she had less money for the meal today, it would be a disguised form of telling the police that there was something wrong with her meal.
Besides, she had no connection with these people, only disgust, so she had to get the money.
"I bought the toothpaste in my bag myself."
The woman said, holding the bag in her arms.
“Then may I ask, which supply and marketing cooperative did you buy it from?
You carry toothpaste in broad daylight, is it possible that you use her as a snack?"
Yang Lina had the mentality to get to the bottom of the matter. When the woman saw that Yang Lina was not finished, she just wanted to curse, but the police were present, so she had to restrain herself.
"Okay, I'll give it to you."
As the woman spoke, her hands trembled slightly in anger, she took out three big unity cards from her bag and threw them to Yang Lina angrily.
"There are still four dollars and six cents."
Yang Lina opened her hand, not wanting to miss a single point.
"Why are you being so dismissive? We haven't even finished the food we ordered."
The woman argued, but Yang Lina smiled mercilessly.
"Sister, are you saying this funny?
It's you who don't eat it, it's not that I don't let you eat it.
If you don't do this, can I send out more than a dozen plates of beef?
A plate of beef costs three pieces, and there are twelve tables in total. Except for the two tables you have not received, ten plates of beef are worth thirty yuan. How about you pay me for the ten plates of beef as well?"
The woman glanced at her teeth and took out another four and six dollars and handed them to Yang Lina.
Yang Lina smiled, put the money into her trouser pocket, patted her trouser pocket and pressed it firmly in front of the woman.
There should be no shortage of people like this.
When she arrived at the police station, Yang Lina answered truthfully and left the police station about half an hour later.
As soon as Yang Lina came out, she saw Li Jingming pacing back and forth in front of the police station. She was in a good mood and ran towards Li Jingming with a smile.
Li Jingming saw that Yang Lina was in a happy mood and knew that his wife was smart enough to see through those people's tricks.
"If you don't come out, I'm going in."
Li Jingming said, holding Yang Lina's hand.
"How long have you been here? It will only take half an hour for me to come in."
"I'm kidding you, as soon as your front leg was taken away, I came to the store with my back leg. I heard Liu Zhaodi explain the cause and effect, so I came over.
You don't know, brother Liu Zhao is scolding Kong Xiulan right now, and Kong Xiulan is crying."
"I heard from Kong Xiulan that what happened today was caused by Susan Shan again. She has harmed me twice in a row. This time, witnesses and evidence are gathered to see if she has anything else to argue with."
If someone like Susan Shan were to be so mean in the future, not having to take care of herself, just using a camera, a voice recorder, etc. to make a few recordings and post them on a website, she would be dead.
But these days, the tools are limited, so she has to endure it.
She can't be like Susan, stupid enough to spend money to find such a few losers to deal with Susan.
For the time being, Yang Lina could only place her hopes on these people who were foaming at the mouth. If they didn't show up, there would be no hope of the hot pot restaurant catching fire for the time being.
"My daughter-in-law is smart and capable, and she will definitely turn danger into good fortune."
As Li Jingming spoke, he raised his big hand and rubbed the top of Yang Lina's head. When his gentle eyes moved away from Yang Lina's cheek, he instantly became cold.
Although this may seem like a small thing, if you don't take action, I'm afraid that one day that lunatic will really deal with his little wife in a poisonous way.
Li Jingming thought of this and secretly made a decision.
This time, he must make Susan regret.
When the young couple came to the store, Liu Zhaodi had already finished training Kong Xiulan. Kong Xiulan's eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had cried.
When she saw Yang Lina coming into the store, she quickly put down the rag in her hand and approached Yang Lina cautiously.
Yang Lina seemed to vaguely see the shadow of Wang Lan in Kong Xiulan.
Two years ago, Wang Lan was also so cautious, so cowardly, and so timid.
But two years later, Wang Lan was like a poisonous sharp knife, stabbing herself several times behind the scenes.
The silly thing is that she always trusted her.
"Sister Yang, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you."
"I don't blame you, I didn't ask you when you came."
Yang Lina looked calm on her face, but felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
Because she couldn't guard against everything about Susan's deletion of this person.
"I heard from Brother Zhao that you were admitted to the County No. 1 Middle School. Why didn't you go to school and work as a waiter?"
Yang Lina said and sat on the chair. Li Jingming went to the kitchen to find a cup and poured Yang Lina a glass of warm water.
