Wang Yue's expression was still serious, but his gaze was as sharp as a sword and carried a bit of coldness, making the hooligans tremble uncontrollably.
Wang Yue was tall and had long legs, and because of his martial arts practice, his body was even more robust. Even though there were more than a dozen hooligans, standing in front of Wang Yue, they were like little chicks in front of an eagle, completely unable to withstand a single blow.
Being stared at by Wang Yue, the hooligans directly turned around and left in a flash.
After the hooligans left, Wang Yue walked in front of Jiujiu and asked with a concerned expression, "Did they cause trouble for you?"
Jiujiu helped Wang Yue make the tofu pudding and said, "Yes."
Hearing Jiujiu say yes, Wang Yue's action of sitting down paused. He looked behind Jiujiu and frowned slightly, "Why isn't your father here?"
"My father didn't sleep well last night, so I told him to rest a little more today," Jiujiu explained, "Everything was fine in the past, who knew that something like this would happen today."
Jiujiu and Li Shuan had been running the stall for more than half a year without encountering any trouble, but today they encountered hooligans. If someone said that there was no one behind this, Jiujiu wouldn't believe it even if she was beaten to death.
Jiujiu frowned and thought for a moment, then guessed that it should be the work of Wang Shi's narrow-minded younger brother. However, she had no evidence at the moment, and those hooligans hadn't caused any specific losses to her, so it was useless for her to know. Jiujiu could only secretly play tricks.
On the other side, Wang Yue finished the tofu pudding that Jiujiu gave him in two or three bites, paid the money, wiped his mouth, and left.
Sure enough, the hooligans came again the next day, but the difference was that not only did they come this time, but they also took advantage of the fact that Jiujiu and Li Shuan didn't notice and directly restrained Li Shuan, who was standing in front of the oil pan frying dough sticks.
Li Shuan, who was frying dough sticks, was suddenly held by the arm and pressed to the ground. When he reacted, he wanted to resist with all his might, but Li Shuan alone couldn't resist two big men. In the end, he got himself dirty and was pressed to the ground.
After making sure that Li Shuan didn't have any strength to fight back, the hooligan looked at Jiujiu and said, "I don't see if there are any more tricks today."
The hooligan, who was the leader yesterday, looked at Jiujiu, who was standing standing at the side.
And just as the little gangster was feeling the most proud of himself, he was suddenly kicked to the ground from behind. By the time he reacted, his brothers had already been caught. Wang Yue led a group of constables and looked at the little gangster who had already been caught. She said unhappily to the leader, "Bring him back."
When they met Wang Yue yesterday, the hooligan only thought that Jiujiu was really lucky. But now, after being pressed to the ground by Wang Yue and his men, the hooligan only felt that his life was over.
The hooligan, who was originally arrogant, was immediately arrested and taken away like a stray dog. After the hooligan left, Jiujiu helped Li Shuan up and sincerely thanked him, "Thank you, Big Brother Wang."
Hearing Jiujiu's thanks, Wang Yue said in a low voice, "Two bowls of tofu pudding and four dough sticks. Sorry to trouble you."
"It's no trouble."
Wang Yue just saved Li Shuan, so naturally, Jiujiu was very grateful. She quickly made two bowls of tofu pudding for Wang Yue, took four dough sticks, and poured a bowl of soy milk for Wang Yue.
When Li Shuan heard Jiujiu call him Big Brother Wang, he had a plan in his heart. After Wang Yue finished eating and left, he pulled Jiujiu's arm and asked her who Wang Yue was.
After hearing Jiujiu say that Wang Yue was Aunt Wang's son, Li Shuan instantly fell silent.
His impression of Wang Yue was still the silent man described by the neighbors as a jinx to his wife. However, when he saw him today, he inexplicably had a good impression of him. Especially when Wang Yue suddenly appeared today to save him and Jiujiu, his performance was even better.
Li Shuan asked Jiujiu in a low voice, "Why is he here today?"
Li Shuan wasn't stupid. If Wang Yue really was here for breakfast, then what was up with the group of men behind him? It was obvious that they were here to help.
Now, he heard Jiujiu talk about how those hooligans came to look for trouble yesterday in a very calm tone without any exaggeration.
Sometimes, the calmer it was, the more frightening it was. Especially when Li Shuan heard Jiujiu say that if Wang Yue hadn't come, the group of hooligans would have harmed her. He felt more and more regret in his heart. Why did he rest in the house yesterday? If he had come out …
But just as this thought appeared, he thought of the scene of him being pressed to the ground by the group of hooligans today. Even if Li Shuan didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that he was old.
Li Shuan looked at Jiujiu's cheeks, which were still tender and beautiful like a peeled egg, and asked in a low voice, "Xiang 'er, what do you think of that Wang Yue?"
Hearing Li Shuan ask about Wang Yue, Jiujiu was stunned at first. A moment later, a faint blush appeared on her face. A moment later, she turned her head and walked toward the house.
However, even if Jiujiu didn't say anything, Li Shuan could see that Jiujiu had a very good impression of Wang Yue.
But thinking about it, if someone saved him in danger, he would also have a very good impression of him.
Li Shuan sighed and began to think about Aunt Wang's proposal.
After breakfast, Wang Yue went directly to the yamen and began to interrogate the hooligans who were caught today.
Those hooligans were a group of good-for-nothings. It was fine to let them deal with Jiujiu and Li Shuan, but when they met the iron-blooded Wang Yue, they were instantly terrified.
Not only did they deeply realize their mistakes, but they also confessed that Wang Shi was the one who instigated them to find trouble with Jiujiu.
That afternoon, Wang Shi, who was thinking about how Jiujiu was embarrassed by the hooligans and how Zhu Zhangsheng stepped forward to save the damsel in distress and made Jiujiu fall in love with him at first sight, was caught by the constables who suddenly appeared.
Although Wang Yue was still an executioner, because of the appreciation of the higher-ups, his power was far greater than ordinary people. It was a trivial matter for him to let the constables arrest people, not to mention that Wang Shi had committed a crime.
Before Wang Shi woke up from her beautiful dream, she was directly thrown into prison. When she was thrown into prison and saw the group of hooligans who were also in prison, her heart was instantly in her throat.
When the verdict came out the next day, not only did she have to apologize to Jiujiu's family, but she also had to compensate them with silver taels.
Not to mention that the group of hooligans would definitely look for her because they went for wool and came back shorn. She was really in trouble this time.
That afternoon, Wang Shi was led by the constables to apologize to Jiujiu and finally compensated Jiujiu with silver taels.
In fact, Wang Shi didn't want to compensate these silver taels. At first, she wanted to play the family card. However, after knowing that she was the one who hired those hooligans, not to mention Jiujiu, even Li Shuan wanted to immediately cut off their relationship with her.
In the end, Li Shuan gave Wang Shi double the amount of money that the three of them ate, drank, and spent in Wang Shi's house and directly cut off their relationship with Wang Shi.
In other words, from now on, Li Shuan had nothing to do with Wang Shi and Wang Gui.
