Chapter 207: People Like You Are Contaminating the Air!

At this moment, Qin Minghong’s emotions were a little complicated.

‘Brother Qin, thank you in advance!” Ji Zhao looked at him and smiled. Her tone was filled with gratitude.

At the end of the night, Ji Zhao happily walked into the restaurant’s kitchen. She excitedly rolled up her sleeves and prepared to show off her skills, but she forgot one thing—

In winter, there would be a lack of ingredients.

Even the kitchen of the restaurant did not have many ingredients to use.

‘Look at my memory, it’s really getting worse and worse! Yesterday, we paid everyone for their annual leave. Now, there are no more ingredients in this kitchen.” Seeing Ji Zhao’s motionless appearance, Second Manager You slapped his head angrily. “It’s a pity that the roasted chicken shop at the entrance of the alley has also closed for the day. Otherwise, I could have bought a roasted chicken to deal with it!”

Ji Zhao searched the entire kitchen and finally found a few ingredients.

‘Second Brother You, these ingredients are enough!”

‘Ah Tao, are you sure?” Looking at the few ingredients, Second Manager You asked uncertainly.

‘Yes!”

There was tofu, peanuts, lotus roots, and pork belly. These were enough.

In less than an hour, Ji Zhao made a plate of cold peanuts, sweet and sour lotus root, Mapo tofu, and marinated pork belly that had been cut into thin slices.

Ji Zhao found a clean tile and washed it clean.

Then, she found some green lettuce and washed it for backup.

At noon, Ma Tong arrived late.

“It’s been a few days since we last met. Did Brother You develop a new dish?”

On the round table was a small charcoal stove with a tile placed on it. The tiles were brushed with a layer of oil, and the sliced pork belly was instantly roasted.

The sizzling sound was very appetizing!

‘Ah Tao specially prepared this for you,” Second Manager You explained with a smile. Then, he extended his arm and greeted politely, “Please take a seat and try it.”

After three rounds of wine, Ma Tong was completely conquered by this dish called Tile Roasted Meat.

The pork belly that was roasted like this was fragrant but not greasy. It was salty, fragrant, and crispy in the mouth. Coupled with the fragrance of the big leafy vegetables, the fragrance of the meat and the fragrance perfectly fused into one. The taste was extremely wonderful.

‘Second Brother Ma, to be honest, Ah Tao actually wants to ask you about someone.” Second Manager You ran into the main topic with a smile.

‘Ji Huai?” Ma Tong subconsciously frowned and recalled seriously. “Is it the person captured by the bailiffs from the local temple in Shanghe Village?”

‘Yes!” Ji Zhao hurriedly nodded. “I wonder if he’s still locked up in the county jail?”

“1 remember now,” Ma Tong suddenly said. “I’m afraid that person was released two days ago.”

‘Released? He deliberately found an opportunity to cause trouble and even fought with others. Many people saw it, right? How could he be released so easily?” Ji Zhao asked anxiously.

‘Of the three men and one woman who were arrested, except for the village chief of Pomegranate Village, Ji Shi, the other two were released.” Ma Tong took a sip of wine and looked around before lowering his voice. “1 heard that the county magistrate of Thunder Mountain County next door helped to plead for mercy. The county magistrate didn’t want to embarrass Lord Sun, so he found an excuse to release them!”

‘The county magistrate of Thunder Mountain County? Why is this lord willing to help Ji Huai?” Ji Zhao was even more puzzled.

“1 heard that Lord Sun’s new wife in Thunder Mountain County happens to be the niece of that woman’s sister-in-law.”

Ji Zhao subconsciously frowned. Although this relationship was a little awkward, she had to admit that Ji Huai was related to Lord Sun from Thunder Mountain County.

That was why he dared to secretly kidnap Chenchen and throw him into the deep mountains and old forests for the wolves to devour.

In this way, he could successfully swallow the residence that belonged to Chenchen.

Ji Zhao closed her eyes weakly, feeling a little anxious.

Things were much more complicated than she had imagined.

“I suddenly remembered that I’ve made an appointment with my eldest brother. We’ll return to the village together after noon.” Ji Zhao smiled apologetically as he stood up. ‘Butler Ma, Second Brother You, when there’s a chance next time, I’ll make a few more side dishes for you two. Take your time to eat. I’ll leave first!”

‘Do you want me to get someone to send you?” Second Manager You, who was already a little drunk, couldn’t help but burp.

‘No need, my big brother will take me back with him.” Ji Zhao declined with a smile and left the restaurant in a hurry.

However, she was not in a hurry to rush to the vicinity of the city gate. Instead, she turned around and went to the Octagonal Guests.

As early as when she was making lunch, Qin Minghong was invited away by the steward of the Octagonal Guests.

Coincidentally, she had something to ask Qin Minghong for help. However, just as she turned into an alley, two unfriendly figures suddenly appeared in front of her.

Ji Huai narrowed his eyes and sized up Ji Zhao, who was standing in front of him. The depths of his eyes were filled with undisguised aggression and filth. ‘Long time no see, Sister Ah Tao!”

He deliberately emphasized the words ‘Sister Ah Tao’, and his tone was even more despicable and obscene.

‘The heavens have no eyes. They actually released a scourge like you.” Ji Zhao pinched her nose in disgust and said, “People like you are polluting the air if you live!”

‘Ji Zhao!”

Ji Huai growled angrily. Just as he was about to kick her…

Ji Zhao dodged and his leg kicked into the bamboo pole leaning against the wall!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Zhao immediately pulled out a short bamboo pole beside him and hit his leg hard!

Ji Huai, who could not dodge in time, let out a painful roar!

Just as she was about to run out, three burly men approached her from not far away.

‘Run, I dare you!” Ji Huai used all his strength to pull the leg out. He quickly walked in front of Ji Zhao and raised his hand to give her a loud slap!

Pah!

That crisp sound made Ji Zhao’s head buzz!

She immediately touched the corner of her lips. Her fingers were really stained red!

‘Run! Why aren’t you running anymore!’

Ji Huai looked at the blood on her face and became even more excited.

He picked up a bamboo pole and approached Ji Zhao step by step. Then, he waved the bamboo pole vigorously—

Ji Zhao naturally would not sit still and wait for death. She sneered and stood up unexpectedly. She suddenly bent her knees and ruthlessly hit his triangular area!

Before Ji Huai could react, Ji Zhao retaliated forcefully!

Unfortunately, two fists were no match for four hands. Gradually, she was at a disadvantage…

Just as she thought that the bamboo pole would land on her, a sapphire blue figure immediately rushed over and kicked Ji Huai, who had almost injured her!
