Protagonist:

Chai Mi

Those few lickspittles who had just finished handling matters over there were meek and submissive in the guardhouse, but after they came out, the more they thought about it, the angrier they got.

As a result, a fight broke out.

The result was not quite satisfactory.

Because, as we also mentioned, Lickspittle No. 1's physique was rather fat, and in an instant he beat the other two into fleeing with their heads in their hands.

Lickspittle No. 1 actually has a name, called Liu Haizhu, known in the jianghu as Brother Zhuzi.

He also counts as a well-known "figure" around here.

Liu Haizhu is older in age; he is already twenty-four this year, even older than Chai Mi who sets up a stall to do business outside.

Generally speaking, this age is actually not young; normal people would think that if a boy is this age, he would either marry and have children, or go out to work and such.

However, Liu Haizhu single-mindedly only seeks to study; back then he was determined to test into high school, but ended up spending six years in the third year of middle school.

Yes, he repeated for six years before barely testing into high school.

You should know, the high school admission rate in this era is actually still very low. Although there are some self-funded students, if grades are not ideal and not stable, testing into university is definitely impossible.

Liu Haizhu also counts as having genuinely tested in through real ability. In the village, he is a phoenix feather unicorn horn.

Moreover, Liu Haizhu is older after all, and his family conditions are not bad. Originally Liu's father cooked for people in the countryside, a master chef of flowing-water banquets; then following Liu Haizhu going to No. 1 Middle School, Liu Haizhu discovered a business opportunity and opened a fly restaurant behind the street to the left of No. 1 Middle School.

Of course, there are no fly restaurants on this Northeast side.

Fly restaurant is generally a Chuan-Shu regional dialect term, describing a tiny, hard-to-find eatery.

The small restaurant Liu Haizhu's father opened also falls into this category: small, secluded, hard to find, and bad-tasting.

As a jianghu person, Liu Haizhu naturally has many friends and little brothers and such, but even though he counts as a figure, his father's fly restaurant still has very few customers.

Even if everyone sneaks out to eat elsewhere, or goes to the canteen, they still resolutely rarely go to the fly restaurant opened by Liu Haizhu's father.

Fortunately, Liu Haizhu met Chai Min.

Chai Min gave Liu Haizhu two ideas: using the pretext of classmates' birthdays, have classmates go there to eat.

After all, that fly restaurant is still a restaurant.

For a classmate's birthday, you can't very well go eat at the canteen, right?

The other is running a tab.

Because many people are moonlight clan, even broke by the beginning of the month.

Then eating becomes a bit difficult. At this time, if there is a place to eat first and settle the bill later, it becomes much better. So many classmates all went to eat at Liu Haizhu's family's fly restaurant.

Of course, because the hygiene situation there is worrying, especially in summer, mosquitoes and flies fill the sky, especially many flies; sometimes when classmates are eating, the rice is covered with a thick layer of flies. Hence the name... fly restaurant.

This morning Chai Min coaxed Liu Haizhu to come to Chai Mi's stall to stir up trouble, and Liu Haizhu readily agreed.

First, because as a lickspittle, facing Goddess Chai Min's tiny request, he could not possibly refuse.

Second, Liu Haizhu also felt that Chai Mi's business more or less affected his own family's business. Originally there were still a few classmates who went to his family's restaurant to eat, but after eating Chai Mi's dumplings, they immediately stopped going.

So Liu Haizhu wanted to give Chai Mi a taste of her own medicine, but his lickspittle IQ determined the ceiling of his fault-finding.

Liu Haizhu's first attempt at fault-finding was clearly a miscalculation; he lost so badly it was like throwing away his helmet and armor. But Liu Haizhu did not lose heart.

Of course, generally lickspittles rarely lose heart.

Liu Haizhu felt one scheme fails, just try another.

So, after beating up Lickspittle No. 2 and Lickspittle No. 3, Liu Haizhu queued up again to buy dumplings.

Finally, it was Liu Haizhu's turn again.

Liu Haizhu generously took out twenty yuan and said: "One vegetarian, one meat, two portions of pickled vegetables, one portion of spicy noodles mixed with soybeans, one portion of chili mixed with shredded mustard greens."

Two ten-yuan bills stopped in midair.

Chai Mi did not take them, Song Qiushui also did not take them.

Chai Mi smiled very sweetly, but her words were extremely hard: "Sorry, sold out."

Liu Haizhu looked at the dumplings boiling in the pot and froze: "There are still some in the pot! You're open for business, you can't refuse to sell! The customer is God!"

Song Qiushui burst out laughing: "You even dragged God into this. Really spoiled rotten. Just not selling to you, so what?"

Then Chai Mi spread her hands and said: "Next."

The people behind pushed Liu Haizhu to the side.

Liu Haizhu got angry, tangled on: "On what grounds? You're open for business, the customer wants to buy, you still put on airs and refuse to sell? If you don't sell, I'll report you to the Health Bureau, you don't even have legal permits."

Chai Mi laughed: "Then why don't you go?"

Then Chai Mi pointed at Liu Haizhu and said to the surrounding stall bosses: "Pause a moment, clerks. This kid says he's going to the Health Bureau to report us, says our stall hygiene is unqualified."

This sentence from Chai Mi truly poked a hornet's nest.

That was truly one stone stirring up a thousand waves.

Everyone gets along peacefully, all are stall vendors, earning hard-earned money.

Life is not easy for anyone.

Setting up a stall to do a bit of business is to support the family.

So although everyone finds Chai Mi an eyesore, that is just competition between peers.

Those who sell more naturally exist, so do those who sell less.

All depends on skill.

Those who sell less should find the reason in themselves.

This is the normal routine.

But when Chai Mi said Liu Haizhu was going to the Health Bureau to file a false accusation, all the stall owners got furious.

The first to react was the auntie selling jianbing guozi; that big old lady had a tiger's back and bear's waist, known in the jianghu as Black Whirlwind Sun Xiaojuan.

There were several other stall owners too, such as Zhang Gousheng who sold youtiao, Zhao Tiegang who sold boxed meals, Dan Meizhu who sold egg pancakes, and others; they came straight at Liu Haizhu.

The crowd surrounded Liu Haizhu in the middle, and Black Whirlwind Sun Xiaojuan cursed: "You dead fatty, what do you mean? The fuck you want to report us to the Health Bureau? Are you tired of living? Who the fuck gave you the guts to stir up trouble on Tai Sui's head, to operate on the Tathagata's body?"

Zhao Tiegang next to him went up and gave Liu Haizhu a kick: "Little bastard, don't think I don't know you; aren't you just the son of Liu Dahuzhi from the Corner Dark Room?"

Zhao Tiegang also knew Liu Haizhu's father Liu Dahuzhi.

"Your own family business can't hack it, so you come here to give us eye drops; I see you really don't know life from death."

The remaining few also struck with heavy fists.

As mentioned earlier, the general quality of those setting up stalls here isn't too high.

The crowd pushed and shoved at Liu Haizhu, and Liu Haizhu hurriedly tried his best to explain: "Big brothers, big sisters, it's all a misunderstanding."

Liu Haizhu wasn't stupid either; now that two fists were hard-pressed against four hands, he didn't want to play "hero."

"I meant I wanted to report that this dumpling seller's stuff isn't clean, hygiene is bad... absolutely didn't think of reporting you guys."

Black Whirlwind Sun Xiaojuan's face instantly turned iron-green; just now Liu Haizhu hadn't admitted it yet, a few people only pushed and shoved, didn't really hit. Now Liu Haizhu admitted it; although what he admitted was reporting Chai Mi, the others didn't think so.

Everyone's not blind, it's very obvious. Chai Mi's stall is the cleanest; not only is the stall clean, the person herself looks clean too.

Who with no eyes would go report Chai Mi for what?

Reported, it's also completely meaningless.

Instead it's Chai Mi's neighbors, the other stall owners, who just get unlucky.

Not to mention whether Black Whirlwind Sun Xiaojuan's jianbing guozi are clean or not; just Sun Xiaojuan herself, rising at the fifth watch and climbing up at midnight, hair uncombed, face unwashed, looking like a broken Ma Zhangfei — with that image, standing there, she's not qualified either.

The rest of the people aren't much better off.

So when everyone heard Liu Haizhu say this, they instantly flared up with rage, and gave Liu Haizhu a round of big slaps.

Don't look at Liu Haizhu being very fat, but after all he's not tall, plus the other side had many people; in an instant he fell to the disadvantage.

Chai Mi cooked dumplings on the side, minding her own business, and didn't pay excessive attention to Liu Haizhu being beaten.

Song Qiushui saw it though; she muttered quietly: "Sister, he's so big, nothing will happen, right...?"

"That kind of thick-skinned, tough-fleshed dead fatty can take a beating. This kind of person, if you don't give him a lesson, he won't even know his own surname." Chai Mi said, then asked the classmate buying dumplings: "What's that dead fatty's background? How come he came to find fault today?"

Some people knew, and said: "A mischievous little Bing San, circles around our school belle Chai Min all day, a thing that annoys people and dogs alike. Relying on his family running a little Cangying Guanzǐ, he drags us to eat there hard every day; the food they make is hard to eat all the way to maternal grandmother's home."

"Boss, don't bother with that kind of person." Someone else comforted Chai Mi: "There are too many jealous people; someone saw I study well and told the teacher I'm dating. Made my mom come give me a good scolding... someone sees your business is good and gets jealous, that's normal too."

Chai Mi nodded: "Right, today's dumplings are almost sold out. What class is that Liu Haizhu from? Later if students from his class come to buy, you guys remind me, not selling to any of them."

As soon as Chai Mi said this, two male students got anxious: "Eldest Sister, don't be like that. The two of us are in the same class as that dead fatty, but we're not his accomplices; we... we and that dead fatty Liu Haizhu will be at odds from now on."

The two hurriedly expressed loyalty.

Only then did Chai Mi sell them a portion of dumplings.

Now business is this hot; encountering fault-finders, naturally have to weigh carefully. Business that should be done still has to be done, but also not necessarily all business is accepted.

One's own stall, sell to whoever one wants.

Whether the customer is God, this has to be measured by strength.

Of course, Chai Mi's quality is already pretty good.

Look at Black Whirlwind Sun Xiaojuan next door, still beating up God.

Liu Haizhu was beaten with several big slaps, rolling and crawling trying hard to run out, but was caught back and given a round of big slaps by Sun Xiaojuan.

A few classmates usually bullied by Liu Haizhu couldn't help feeling happy inside, shouting loudly: "Black Whirlwind, save some strength; later make me a jianbing guozi."

Hearing that beating Liu Haizhu violently could get business?

Black Whirlwind Sun Xiaojuan instantly got excited, and gave Liu Haizhu two more big slaps.

Only then did she reluctantly go make jianbing guozi for people.

Everyone was also tired from beating, so they left Liu Haizhu one after another, turning to continue doing business.

Liu Haizhu with bruised face and swollen features:???

He stood up, originally wanted to go drop a few harsh words with Chai Mi, but he didn't dare open his mouth, and left resentfully.

"Wait a moment." Chai Mi called Liu Haizhu to a stop.

Liu Haizhu turned back and asked doubtfully: "You're not going to apologize, are you?"

"Apologize?" Chai Mi froze: "It wasn't me who beat you, why would I apologize? I'm reminding you... you lost your shoes."

Chai Mi pointed at a pair of green rubber shoes left on the ground: "Pretty fucking obvious; hurry up and put them on and scram. You leave a pair of broken shoes here, who the fuck would still come eat!!!"

Liu Haizhu hated it in his heart:!!!

Result: Song Qiushui went out and kicked that pair of broken shoes far away: "Fuck, this old lady didn't hit you today, otherwise I'd let you taste this Song Qiushui's ferocity..."

Liu Haizhu left in a sorry state.

Chai Mi smiled: "Forget it, you can't beat him. Extortion's fine though..."

Song Qiushui didn't care: "Then I'll extort him to death!!!"

Business returned to normal.

Those queuing queued, those eating ate.

And unlike Chai Mi and Song Qiushui's happiness, at this moment Chai Min hiding under a big tree, angry to the point of biting her lower lip until it bled.

"Useless! Rice bucket! Trash!"

Chai Min resentfully looked in Liu Haizhu's direction and cursed: "Usually blowing three blowing six whistling, at the critical moment, just a fucking goods that gets beaten."

Chai Min hates but has no plan, and by her side is her legitimate nominal boyfriend Teng Ye.

Teng Ye is from Sijiazhen in Ke County; his uncle opened a gold mine at home, very rich locally.

Teng Ye himself was also quite good-looking, standing a full 1.9 meters tall, and was on the school basketball team; aside from being a bit tanned, he really was quite handsome.

Moreover, as a sports student, his family circumstances were also pretty decent.

And it just so happened that Chai Min was the campus belle.

The two of them could be described as "a dogtail flower stuck onto cow dung" — it was really quite perfect.

Teng Ye's family had a bit of money and looked down on Chai Mi's little stall; deep down he felt Chai Min was being a bit excessively targeted at her cousin sister.

A dumpling stall — how much money could it earn?

For Chai Min to make such a huge fuss was purely going a bit too far.

But then, with her proper boyfriend right there, Teng Ye couldn't say too much.

"Even Liu Haizhu can't beat your cousin sister, so why not let it go? You're all family; look, it's not easy for your cousin sister to run a stall, and you're always picking trouble for no reason — isn't that not too good?"

Chai Min flared up instantly: "What do you mean? You don't know my cousin sister went home and made a false accusation, talking about my boyfriend situation? I sneaked out with you today, risking my life. If my dad finds out, he could break my legs. And you're still taking her side? What, you've taken a fancy to my cousin sister or what?"

Teng Ye even deliberately glanced at Chai Mi.

In every aspect she seemed far superior to Chai Min — at least she wasn't sickly.

With a body like Chai Min's, even if her family had a gold mine, it might still be scorching enough that they couldn't afford to support her.

A whole gold mountain couldn't fill the bottomless pit of a sickly body...
