Chapter 205 Lame
Lu Xingzhi carried Jiang Yao all the way back to the parking place, and Jiang Yao strongly demanded to get down and leave. At this time, there were many people coming and going, and many old people went to the market to buy fresh vegetables with their baskets on their backs. When I went to the house of a big man carrying a girl on his back, a word was written in his eyes, which was immoral.
Just as the old lady said, Wu Zhong's stall is easy to find, there's no need to ask anyone. When I entered the vegetable market, I saw a shoe-shine stall near the entrance of the vegetable market.
But when the two arrived, the stall was surrounded by people.
Jiang Yao was dragged in by Lu Xingzhi and questioned. It turned out that a customer said that Wu Zhong had polished his shoes and asked Wu Zhong to pay for it.
Many people around couldn't stand it any longer, and kept yelling, "You have to be honest. If someone polishes your shoes, can they ruin your shoes? You only charge you two cents to polish a pair of your shoes. Get rid of the cost of leather oil, and earn you one cent." Dime, but you want someone to pay you twenty yuan for your leather shoes, how can there be such a deceit?"
"Besides, look at your leather shoes. You don't even know how long you've worn them since you bought them. Why should they ask you to pay for a new pair of leather shoes? You're extorting money!" said the passer-by.
No matter how ignorant Jiang Yao was with common sense, she could tell that the man's leather shoes could not have been scuffed while they were being polished.
She looked at Lu Xingzhi, tugged at the hem of his clothes, and said softly, "That guest looks like a ruffian trying to blackmail him!"
"I said he did it! If he says no, then show evidence! My leather shoes were ruined by him, even if they are not new shoes, but if this pair is broken, I will give it to you again." You spend money to buy it, but don’t you have to spend another 20 yuan to buy it?” The customer was talking with a cigarette in his mouth, and the smell of smoke kept coming out when he opened his mouth, probably because he was annoyed by being accused, he kicked him over. After entering Wu Zhong's stall, he scolded, "You cripple, pay me if you don't want to ask for it. It won't be a matter of twenty yuan later! At that time, the price of the leather shoes on my feet will increase to two or three hundred!" Already!"
As soon as the people around heard that this man was so arrogant, they knew that things were not easy to mess with, and most of them dispersed immediately, and some people still stayed there to watch the fun, but there were still a few old people standing there angrily pointing people cursed.
Those who can come here to buy vegetables all live in this neighborhood. Wu Zhong has lived here for several years. Everyone knows him and knows that Wu Zhong is honest and not very talkative, but he is hardworking and willing to help others. He lost his leg and had no other work to do, so he came here to set up a shoe-shining booth. Sometimes neighbors would call Wu Zhong if there were odd jobs he could do, and people who knew him usually helped him.
The neighbors know how much money Wu Zhong makes in a day from setting up a stall here. Wu Zhong doesn’t even earn 20 yuan a month.
"What are you talking about so much nonsense? With this time, it's better to have a fight." Lu Xingzhi let go of Jiang Yao's hand and let her wait by the side, then walked directly towards Wu Zhong, saying, " Wu Zhong, even if you lose strength with one leg, it would be easy for you to beat such a scoundrel to death with just one hand, right?"
Before everyone could react, Lu Xingzhi kicked the ruffian's knee directly, "Who did you call a cripple just now? En?"
"Who the hell are you!" The ruffian hurriedly covered his feet in pain, and cursed before he could raise his head, "You fucking meddle in my business?"
