Chapter 30 This is Street Martial Arts (Part 1)

On the same afternoon that Huang Donglai and the others entered the city, someone also entered the south gate of the capital.

This man was dressed in coarse cloth, with a big bag hanging on his shoulders, and he came on foot.

I don't know if his skin is dark or dirty, as if it has been smeared with mud. Coupled with his beard and a large sore on the right side of his face, his appearance is really hard to look at.

This man with a dirty and ugly appearance, simple clothes, and no weapons. He was obviously not a rich and powerful merchant or official, nor was he a powerful figure in the world. So when he followed the crowd into the city, there was no trace of him.

People took him seriously.

However, if you let an expert with keen eyesight take a closer look, you will find that this person's body shape and gait are much more steady and brisk than ordinary people, and the skin color at the base of his neck is consistent with the upper part of his neck.

There is a difference on the face...

In other words, this is a person in disguise.

A person who deliberately hides his true appearance because he doesn't want to attract too much attention.

So who is he?

I think all the readers have guessed that he is Sun Yixie, who came all the way north from Hangzhou to Beijing after receiving the letter from Huang Donglai.

Ordinarily, Sun Yixie's journey here was shorter than Huang Dong's journey, and the roads in East China were also easier to travel. He should have arrived earlier, but because he wanted to spend more time with his family at home, he also took care of Murong Ji.

The previous impact on their family's business led them to stay in Hangzhou for a while before setting off.

It turned out to be a coincidence, he happened to arrive in the capital on the same day as Huang Donglai and his party.

Although Sun Yixie is one of the most powerful people in the south of the Yangtze River, he has seen it before, but this is his first time back to the capital city of Dashu. Therefore, like Huang Donglai, after entering the city, everything he saw felt new.

Considering that his disguise was quite time-consuming, Sun Yixie decided not to go to the inn to remove his makeup, but to take a walk around the city before sunset.

So, he wandered around the city, stopping and walking along the way, watching people perform in the east, listening to people singing in the west, buying a few things in the south, and tasting a few snacks in the north... He also got to know a lot about the capital in a short period of time.

of customs.

After wandering like this for more than an hour, Sun Yixie was suddenly attracted by a scent. After searching for a while, he walked into a fly shop on the roadside.

The owner of this restaurant, whose surname is Chen, is in his fifties. He also studied with famous chefs for several years when he was young. After getting married, he established a business here based on his craftsmanship. He started slowly from a small stall and after more than 20 years

In 2001, we had the store we have now.

On weekdays, Boss Chen is only responsible for cooking in the back kitchen. His son-in-law is responsible for paying the bills, serving dishes, putting away the tables, and greeting guests in the store. The boss's daughter helps cook and wash dishes in the back. When business is busy, he will also come out to help serve food.

Serve the food.

Lao Chen also has a wife who, because her feet have been bound, is somewhat reluctant to help in the store, so she stays at home to take care of her two young grandchildren.

It is such a small shop, such an ordinary family, which has been operating for several years by selling delicious home-cooked meals. It has a good reputation and the neighbors are taking good care of their business.

At this moment, Sun Yixie walked into the store and took a quick look and found that the room was quite busy. Except for a small table in the corner, all other tables were full, but he didn't mind where he sat, as long as the food was delicious.

When Brother Sun sat down in the corner, the boss's son-in-law also came up to greet him. Without thinking much, Sun Yixie ordered a pot of wine and a bowl of rice, and then asked the cook to fry him two special dishes.

.

The boss's son-in-law was also very clever. When he saw that Sun Yixie had ordered rice instead of pasta or steamed buns, and from his accent, he guessed that he was from the south, so he went to the kitchen and asked his father-in-law to prepare a piece of fish and meat, and

Pay attention to the taste of dishes from the south and the north, so that guests can eat familiar dishes and taste the taste that can only be found in the north.

Just like that, Sun Yixie waited for a while and his food came.

Putting down the plate, the aroma rose. Sun Yixie lowered his head and took a look. The two dishes were both delicious and delicious, making people drool just by looking at them. Before Sun Yixie even moved his chopsticks, he knew he had come to the right place.

This meal is sure to be a feast for the eyes.

However, at this moment, there were seven or eight streetwalkers who happened to pass by the entrance of the store, and the person leading the way happened to glance into the store because of the smell of the food, and caught a glimpse of Sun Yixie serving food.

woman.

Because the store was busy at this time, it was the boss's daughter who was in charge of serving food.

This woman is twenty-six years old. Although she is the mother of two children and usually does menial work, her appearance and figure are still beautiful and graceful.

At that time, the neighbors all said: With the beauty of Chen Dashao's daughter, it is more than enough to find a concubine from a wealthy family in the capital. As long as Chen Dashao is willing to nod, then their family will not open any restaurants for the rest of their lives.

It doesn't matter if you wear it.

Unexpectedly, Boss Chen later married his daughter to a poor boy who had no father or mother and came to work in his store. There was no reason. He just liked her and the son-in-law was good to his daughter.

Now more than ten years have passed, and time has indeed proved that Boss Chen's choice was right: his son-in-law has always been very good to his daughter, and can also help him a lot in business. He is a diligent and thoughtful person.

But today, this young couple is in trouble...

"Hey! This is such a scene. I've been here every once in a while, so why did I miss it..." When the man outside the door saw the boss's daughter, he couldn't take it out.

While muttering these dirty words, he led the seven big men behind him into the house.

When the boss's daughter saw this, she quickly returned to the kitchen with the dishes in her arms.

"Ha... Dear guests, please stay." The boss's son-in-law also stepped forward tactfully, stopped in front of those people, and smiled, "Look, our little shop is already full..."

"What are you doing? Are you going to chase people away as soon as I come in?" The man in front of him on the opposite side moved his squinting eyes away from the direction where the boss's daughter disappeared, and put on a stern look.

With a coaxing expression, he glared at the boss's son-in-law and said, "Do you know who the uncle is?"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Can you not know this..." The boss's son-in-law really knew him, so he replied immediately, "Who in these streets doesn't know you Mr. Ma?"

ah."

In fact, not only the boss's son-in-law knew him, but everyone in the room, except Sun Yixie, knew him.

This Ma Er, in the past two or three months, has quickly become a famous gangster in the nearby area and even half of the capital.

What, you asked what he was doing three months ago?

Damn it, he hadn't come to the capital three months ago, so he was naturally making trouble in his hometown.

Seeing this, some people may wonder, is the gangster scene in a place like Beijing a place where someone who has just arrived for three months can rise to the top?

Of course not, unless...that person has power and backing.

Ma Er naturally has a backer, and his biggest backer is his eldest brother Ma Xuansheng.

Although Ma Xuansheng and Ma Er were born to the same mother, they are not good people, but their personalities and talents are quite different: Ma Xuansheng has been very smart since he was a child, he was successful in reading when he was a teenager, and he is very ambitious.

, is scheming, and his "badness" is the kind of treacherous evil that usually only appears in politicians; and Ma Er (actually his real name is not Ma Er, but Ma Xuanyu, but he has been too evil since he was a child).

He's such a bastard that his family doesn't even call him by his first name), he's the kind of born gangster who is greedy for money, lustful, cunning and cruel, and spends his whole life just lazy and bullying others.

Originally, the two brothers' families were only local tycoons, and their power was only average, far less than the Sun family's influence in Hangzhou. However, they did not expect that Ma Xuansheng became the top scholar in high school a few years ago and became an official in the imperial court.

He was soon attracted by Han Yu, the young master of the current crown prince, and became one of Han Yu's disciples.

And because Ma Xuansheng's ability was really good and he was highly appreciated by Han Yu, he was soon regarded as a key training target by Han Yu.

It can be basically believed that when the crown prince ascends the throne a few years later and Han Yu becomes a powerful minister, Ma Xuansheng is likely to be promoted to a minister-level position as Han Yu's important wing in the court.

In order to make Ma Xuansheng's future career smoother, Han Yu also colluded with the eunuchs in the court to do another thing-selecting Ma Xuansheng as his consort.

Yes, everyone should understand after seeing this, he is the consort that Princess Zhu Qingzhen will marry soon...

To sum up, with the rapid rise of Ma Xuansheng, the Ma family also came to the capital. They settled down three months ago. Now they are waiting for the auspicious day next month to officially marry the princess.

As the future prince-in-law's only biological brother, Ma Er has been having a great time in the gangster circles in the capital these past three months.

In the neighborhood, it was common for small businessmen, hawkers, and decent women to be harassed by him, but ordinary people, who could afford to offend him? So people on the street stayed away when they saw him.

Now, because Ma Er accidentally saw the pretty female workers in this restaurant, he immediately became malicious and started looking for trouble when he entered the restaurant.

The shop owner's son-in-law also knew that he couldn't afford to offend this kind of person, so he could only try to send these plague gods away with a smile on his face, but... how could it be that easy?

"How dare you talk to me like this when you know me?" Ma Er ignored the boss's son-in-law at all, pushed him aside, took a step forward, and shouted to the tables of people eating in the store, "Have you finished eating?

?Do you want me to feed you personally?"

As soon as these words came out, who dared to sit there and continue eating? If you don't want to be beaten, just leave quickly.

So, in the blink of an eye, all the guests at those tables got up, dropped their money at the counter, and ran away.

Ma Er and his seven gangster brothers immediately stepped forward with a smile, squatted and sat down, and occupied two tables.

"Why are you standing there? You're here to say hello. Do you want me to invite you?" Ma Er said to the boss's son-in-law as soon as he sat down.

When the boss's son-in-law saw it, he knew that today was going to be a difficult time, but he had to get through it. He could only bite the bullet and go up. While clearing away the leftovers on the table, he greeted with a stiff smile: "Yes, yes, two

Master, if you want something to eat, just call me."

"Call me whatever you want? Ha..." A veteran ruffian like Ma Er is very skilled at finding faults. A normal remark from someone else can turn into a hook for him, "Okay, this is what you said..."

He paused, looked at each other and smiled lewdly, and then said, "Master, I want...boiled beef ears in wine, white-cut lamb's knees, steamed goose palms, and smoked fish with lilies..."

He didn't even need to finish his words before the boss's son-in-law understood that something was wrong.

Not only ordinary people, but also wealthy people can not eat these dishes every day. Even if Boss Chen really knows how to cook them, it is impossible for a home-style restaurant like theirs to have enough ingredients.

"Sir, I'm sorry... We are running a small business here, and these dishes..." After a few seconds, the boss's son-in-law patiently listened to what the other party had to say, and then began to apologize.

"What?" Ma Er didn't even wait for him to say those two words before he raised his voice, "You want to say 'no'?"

Snapped--

Ma Er then slapped the table: "Hey! You kid... you asked me to 'call you whatever you want'. Now that I have said a lot of things, you just said 'no' and dismissed it?"

Saying that, Ma Er grabbed the boss's son-in-law by the collar, pulled his face closer, glared at him and said: "Are you deliberately playing tricks on me? I think you don't want to do this business anymore!"

"

"Stop!" At this moment, the shop owner, that is, "Chen Dashao" finally couldn't help but come out of the back kitchen with a kitchen knife. His daughter followed him, holding a knife in her hand.

Rolling pin, looking at her husband with concern.

"Hey? What's going on? You're a show-off guy, right?" Ma'er isn't afraid of them. How can a gangster be afraid of good people? "In broad daylight, I just come in and order a dish, and you show off and want to kill someone? There's also Wang

Is this legal? Are you afraid that you are not running a shady store?" As he said this, he looked at the boss's son-in-law who was being dragged by him, and then looked at the boss, "Old man, if you act so randomly... you are not afraid that the government will seize your family's property.

All the men have been taken care of, and those who are left with orphans and widows...will they be bullied?"

What Ma Er said was a clear threat, indicating that even if he didn't take action, he would have backers who could destroy the other party's family.

"You..." Being threatened by the other party, cold sweat started to fall on Chen Dashao's forehead. Not to mention that he only had a kitchen knife today, and he probably wouldn't be able to kill so many people on the other side, even if he could drive them away.

, what will be waiting for their family after that? "

"What do you want?" After a breath, Boss Chen's tone became slightly darker and he asked through gritted teeth.

"Ha... that's easy to talk about." Ma Er let go of the boss's son-in-law at this time, pushed him away, and then pointed at the boss's daughter who was hiding behind her father, "Let the little lady come over first and spend some time with me.

Let’s have a few drinks together, and maybe when my anger subsides, I won’t embarrass you anymore.”

Before he finished speaking, the gangsters around him had already focused their attention on the boss's daughter, and they all showed lewd smiles.

"Dad...I...I won't go..." The boss's daughter looked frightened and aggrieved at that time, and she hid a little further.

Both Lao Chen and his son-in-law had angry faces, but they didn't know how to solve the situation in front of them.

And at this moment, a figure sitting in the corner... moved.
