Chapter 1222: Chapter 1224 Even Heaven Can’t Stand It Anymore_1 Chapter 1222: Chapter 1224 Even Heaven Can’t Stand It Anymore_1 Bai Ruozhu continued to eat her vegetables and drink her tea at a leisurely pace, as if all of this had nothing to do with her.
Of course, it definitely had sothing to do with her.
The mont she exerted her skills, she had the rat poison paired up and sent to Leisure Lodge, which was rather considerate.
However, this rat poison was not the usual kind; it was a special type aid at attracting rats.
Compared to Leisure Lodge breaking their dication fence and injuring a guest, her move could be considered quite polite.
She naturally wouldn’t be like the Yang Family, resorting to any ans for revenge, disregarding the lives of innocent guests.
These rats were only ant to dirty Leisure Lodge for a few days, causing guests to detour, without harming anyone.
“Oh dear, why are there so many rats?
This isn’t normal,” an old man close to Bai Ruozhu whispered to the middle-aged man beside him, who seed to be his son.
Bai Ruozhu stealthily perked up her ears, wary of anyone catching on.
“I also find it abnormal, could it be that Leisure Lodge has committed so taboo and incurred divine punishnt?
Otherwise, how could there be an inexplicable rat infestation?” the middle-aged man next to the old man said.
The old man nodded quickly, “Definitely, we should leave quickly too and tell our acquaintances to avoid this area for a while.
We shouldn’t bring any bad luck upon ourselves.”
Bai Ruozhu watched the two flee in disarray, secretly snickering.
Others were helping interpret the situation just as she hoped.
Now she was curious to see how Leisure Lodge would resolve the situation.
At that ti, it was impossible for a restaurant not to have rats, but not so many.
Her poison had lured all the nearby rats here; other businesses should be thankful to her.
At this mont, a middle-aged woman entered, her face considerably long, making her horse-like features appear even longer.
Following the woman were a nanny and two beautiful maids, presenting quite a scene of grandeur.
The ones who still dared to enter Leisure Lodge at this point could only be those related to it, without a doubt, this woman was Mada Yang.
“Shopkeeper, it’s good that you have arrived.
Look at this chaos; the guests are all leaving,” the shopkeeper said with a worried frown.
Mada Yang glared fiercely at the shopkeeper, “Useless trash, what use are you?”
The shopkeeper’s legs trembled as he hurriedly responded, “However, the distinguished guests in the private room upstairs haven’t been affected.
The rats are only running around the main hall downstairs.
I just sent soone to buy the rat poison.”
“Be very careful when placing the rat poison, don’t let it contaminate the food and cause a fatality lawsuit,” Mada Yang ordered sternly, “Hmph, soone must be up to mischief.”
After saying that, she scanned the surroundings and quickly fixed her gaze on Bai Ruozhu.
Bai Ruozhu smiled faintly, continuing to sip her tea leisurely and even giving Mada Yang a provocative look.
Mada Yang’s eyes narrowed slightly as she quickly approached Bai Ruozhu.
“Bai Ruozhu, it really is you causing trouble.
Go, report to the authorities imdiately.
We must lock up this wretched woman in the prison cell today!” Mada Yang instructed the maid behind her.
Bai Ruozhu looked at her lazily and asked, “Would that be Mada Yang?
You’re blaming for the rats drawn to the filth in your establishnt?
I am a guest here, is this how you treat your guests?”
“Don’t give your ambiguous talk.
Why did you co here if not to cause trouble?” Mada Yang retorted.
“Do I have a grudge against Leisure Lodge?
Why would I go looking for trouble with Leisure Lodge?
Mrs.
Yang couldn’t have run out of ideas and had to drag into this, could she?
Speaking of which, I stayed behind with good intentions, wondering if you would like to buy so rat poison,” Bai Ruozhu said with a light laugh.
Mrs.
Yang was so furious she was practically grinding her teeth, “Let’s not beat around the bush; isn’t this just your way of getting back at for the welco banquet incident?”
“The welco banquet incident?
What are you talking about, Mrs.
Yang?
Your words are unclear, and Ruozhu truly doesn’t understand,” Bai Ruozhu feigned ignorance.
“It’s about that welco banquet when the railing collapsed.
You got lucky this ti, but I’ve taken note of today’s events, and sooner or later, I’ll make sure you get your couppance!” Mrs.
Yang spoke through clenched teeth.
Bai Ruozhu feigned sudden realization, “So you’re saying you were the ones who caused the accident at the welco banquet?
If you’re competing with Leisure Lodge, why not compete fairly?
Why resort to such tactics that harm innocent guests?
It’s no wonder even the heavens can’t stand by and are punishing you.”
She patted her chest as she spoke, “So many rats nearly scared to death.
You’d better start doing so good deeds soon, to repent for all the immoral things you’ve done.”
“You…” Mrs.
Yang was so enraged she almost couldn’t catch her breath, pointing at Bai Ruozhu and about to take a swing at her.
The nanny and maids by her side also rushed forward, clearly intending to bully Bai Ruozhu for being “outnumbered.”
The shopkeeper and the clerks in the restaurant also gathered around, ready to obey Mrs.
Yang’s command.
With swift shuffling sounds, Jianqi and Muyu appeared, having used their light skills to move quickly, stepping on tables and chairs and arriving beside Bai Ruozhu in a few strides, standing guard to her left and right.
How could she possibly go out alone?
Even if she was willing, Achun would never agree to it.
She had just asked them to stay outside before entering Leisure Lodge, indicating they did not need to show up unless necessary.
“You’re all too hasty.
Even if all of them attacked, they’re no match for .
There was no need for you to intervene,” Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.
The faces of Mrs.
Yang’s people turned sour; the sudden appearance of Jianqi and Muyu had stunned them, as none of them possessed such impressive light skills.
Just then, the voice of an officer ca from outside, “Who is causing trouble here?
What exactly is going on?”
It was Mrs.
Yang’s maid who had gone to report to the authorities and brought back the officer.
The officer entered the restaurant first but was startled by the rats scurrying all over the floor, then imdiately turned back and said, “Sir, please don’t co any closer, lest you dirty your eyes.”
Bai Ruozhu turned at the sound, heh, Fan Li, the Capital Magistrate has arrived.
Fan Li must have been quite annoyed; as the Capital Magistrate, he had to deal with a rat problem, but how could he pretend to be oblivious when he knew Mrs.
Yang and Bai Ruozhu were at odds?
Dare he act as if he knew nothing?
If things escalated, could he expect the Emperor to be lenient?
Seeing Fan Li had co, Mrs.
Yang turned and took a few steps forward, saying, “Magistrate Fan, your timing is perfect.
Look at this havoc Bai Family has wreaked in my restaurant, bringing all these rats.
You must give an explanation for this today!”
Mrs.
Yang was truly a Yang Family mber, speaking just as arrogantly as Yang Tianhua.
Fan Li looked at Bai Ruozhu with so difficulty and asked, “Madam Jiang, is this true?”
“Magistrate Fan, with your astute observation, you should see that I was rely passing by for a al when Mrs.
Yang accused of bringing the rats.
How could a re woman like myself summon so many rats?
Besides, if I did bring the rats, why wouldn’t I have cleared out earlier?
Why would I still be here?” Bai Ruozhu argued.
Listening to her, Fan Li felt there was so reason to her words, but Mrs.
Yang insisted, “Why would you co to Leisure Lodge for a al out of the blue?
Is the food at the welcoming banquet not good enough for you?
Why is it that everything was fine here until you showed up, and then suddenly there’s trouble?”
