I Open a Restaurant in another World

Chapter 3 Ice Jelly

The kitchen knife stuck on the chopping board, the blade trembling and flashing cold light.

The woman's scalp numbed, as if someone had strangled her neck. Her face was ashen, but she dared not say anything nonsense. In the end, she left without buying any vegetables.

Zhang Beiting handed the cut pumpkin to He Hai, turned around and asked Song Yanqing, "Do you want to eat any vegetables?"

Song Yanqing shook her head and said quickly, "I'm not picky."

There were eggs and vegetables sent by Aunt He at home, so Zhang Beiting picked two eggplants and a few peppers.

I didn't dare to take more, fearing that I wouldn't have enough money.

He Hai weighed it quickly, "Pumpkin is two catties and one ounce, count it as two catties, and give two cents. Eggplant and pepper are one catty and seven ounces together, both are three cents per catty, count it as five cents."

Zhang Beiting breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the vegetables were not very expensive.

The two left with the vegetables, and the vegetable stall became noisy again.

"Li Guixiang used to gossip about the Zhang family behind their backs, but she didn't expect that when she faced them face to face, Zhang Beiting only used a knife and she was so scared that her legs were shaking."

"I saw you retracted your hand just now."

"You said it as if you didn't retract your hand."

"When did Zhang Beiting have this skill? His father opened a restaurant on South Street back then, and he didn't use a knife like this."

The discussion in his ears became more and more vague, and Zhang Beiting asked Song Yanqing: "Did you get scared just now?"

"No." Song Yanqing paused slightly, and soon returned to normal.

In fact, he was a little scared at first.

Zhang Beiting has been speaking in a gentle tone since he woke up, and he didn't show a cold face even when he asked why he was the one riding in the sedan chair.

But the look in his eyes when he looked at the woman just now was cold, as if the woman would chop her up if she said one more word.

But after a moment of fear, only hatred remained.

Even he couldn't stand hearing what the woman said, let alone Zhang Beiting.

"Who is that woman?" Song Yanqing asked.

"An aunt from the same clan," Zhang Beiting had heard his parents talk about Li Guixiang. "Before my family moved to Baihe Academy, we sold the restaurants at home. She liked one of them and wanted to buy it at half the market price. The restaurant had a good location and many people wanted to buy it, so my parents refused.

"Later, the restaurant was sold to someone else, and she blamed my parents for ignoring the feelings of the same clan and unwilling to lend a helping hand to the same clan."

"How can this be true. "Song Yanqing frowned.

In the original owner's memory, this fellow came to Yunyang City from the countryside a few years earlier than their family, but their family had only a house and a bun shop. There was also a boy two years younger than the original body in the same family. He also learned to read and study since childhood. He took the county exam in the same year as the original body. The original body passed the exam and the man failed.

Adding these details together, anyone who understands can see that the woman's behavior is out of jealousy.

As the two talked, they soon got home.
