Village Chief Li’s face sank: “What do you mean by this? Are you questioning the justice of Meng Daren? If that is the case, then let’s go directly to the country magistrate.”

Mrs. Liu busily replied: “They say that all officials and ministers protect each other, so what is the use of country magistrate? As long as Meng Daren said a word, how can the country magistrate control the life and death of poor people?”

Village Chief Li stared at Mrs. Liu and said: “It seems that not only you questioning the justice of Meng Daren, but also the country magistrate. Then, let me help you write a letter. You go directly to the capital and sue the small officials in the Qingyuan Town for not solving this case with justice.”

Village Chief Li added: “But I’m reminding you, that no matter where you go to complain, you have to justify your statement and don’t act like this. Your statement and the victim completely look different. When I heard your story, I had this question in mind, that if your mother-in-law truly met the two evil villains in your mouth, why is she still conscious?”

Mrs. Liu doesn’t understand: “Village Chief, what do you mean by this?”

Village Chief Li coldly snorted: “What do I mean? What I mean is, don’t falsely accused people. In your compiled statement. It’s very easy for people to see through your lies. For example, if you say your mother-in-law is seriously injured to the officials, she is bound to be sent to a doctor to check her wounds. If no serious wounds were detected, it means you gave a false statement. And your falsely accusing people. Do you know how long a person will stay in the prison for falsely accusing people?”

Mrs. Liu quickly reacted and looked at the old lady. After she looked at the old lady, she saw the old lady looking at her angrily. She felt like the old lady wanted to swallow her whole.

She was very proud of her wits, but now she knows what a stupid mistake she made… …

Old Lady Bai knew that it’s impossible to get money to Zhao Lan today. Her plan was disturbed by Mrs. Liu. She was lying on the ground for so long. The small stones were hurting her.

Old Lady Bai climbed up from the ground and glared at Mrs. Liu, then angrily shouted: “What are you still doing? Don’t you still want to go back with me?”

When the two left in vain, a burst of laughter sounded behind them. The two were trembling in anger, but they also felt helpless.

In the restaurant.

After thanking Boss Chen, Bai Zhi personally went to the kitchen and shared some tips for cooking the potatoes.

Every chef has their specialty dishes, which they don’t like to share. They had never seen a selfless person like Bai Zhi. The contempt and suspicion they felt the first time they met her gradually turn into respect and admiration.

When Bai Zhi shared the tips, they carefully write it down. And according to these tips, they made delicious food. Because of this, the manager of the restaurant rewarded them.

The chefs were so excited, they had never received a reward in the restaurant.

The restaurant only gives rewards to the chef that satisfied their tongue. This was a rule in a high-end restaurant.

The chefs surrounded Bai Zhi and showed the rewards they received today. Then, they stuffed it to Bai Zhi’s hand: “Miss Bai, if you didn’t selflessly teach us those tips, we can’t get these rewards. These rewards are what you deserve.”

Bai Zhi pushed the money back: “No, this is what you deserve. I teach you those tips because of my commitment to Boss Chen. To sum it up, you all have a good foundation, you learn things fast, and you take those teaching seriously, which is why you correctly achieve the right taste. This reward is what you deserve. I can’t accept it.”
