I rely on the system to support my eighteen brothers and sisters
Chapter 105: Death
"Oh," Qiao Linxi sighed, and then washed up and went to the snack bar with Zhang Huawei to start daily shopping in preparation for opening for business.
But when she arrived at the snack bar, she was surprised to find that Qin Xiaoqing had also gotten up. He was sweeping the floor, and the maids he brought with him started to make a fire.
"Mr. Qin, why are you guys up so early?"
Qin Xiaoqing smiled slightly when he saw Qiao Linxi: "Miss Qiao has already done us the greatest favor by letting us live here. How dare we just eat and drink for free all day long?"
"Haha..." Qiao Linxi gave a fake laugh and said, "Mr. Qin is from a wealthy family, how can he do such rough work? Let others do it."
Qiao Linxi's snack bar has been open for more than half a month. She no longer needs to go shopping in person every day, as the vendors will deliver the groceries to her.
Vegetables and meats are delivered every morning, and Qiao Linxi prepares them into dishes. If they are not sold out, Qiao Linxi will give them to the beggars. This ensures that every customer who comes to the snack bar eats fresh food.
"Boss Qiao, the food is here."
Not long after Qiao Linxi arrived at the store, the butcher brought the meat that Qiao Linxi ordered, including ribs, lean meat, and pig intestines.
Pig intestines are the most difficult to handle. They need to be cleaned with flour to remove the eggs in them. They also need to be rubbed repeatedly with vinegar and salt to remove the odor. This way, the pig intestines will not have any odor.
Pig intestines are the dirtiest part of the pig, but if they are handled well, they are the most fragrant. So this braised pig intestine is also the most popular.
Every time Qiao Linxi handles pig intestines, she needs to be fully armed, wear gloves and a mask. After processing, she also has to take a shower to ensure that there is no peculiar smell on her body.
I don't know what happened today, but when Qiao Linxi was processing pig intestines, she was retching from the fumes. This made Qin Xiaoqing, who was standing next to her, think that Qiao Linxi was pregnant, and he almost asked her.
Fortunately, the quantity was not very large, only three or four pounds, and it was processed quickly. When all the ingredients were ready, the sun was shining on the street. Qiao Linxi then went to the backyard to take a bath.
Seeing the food that Qiao Linxi worked so hard to make, but received so little money in return, most of which were just words of thanks, Qin Xiaoqing thought it was not worth it.
But he is not the kind of person who likes to meddle in other people's affairs. He discussed this issue with Qiao Linxi yesterday. Since Qiao Linxi still chose to do so, why should he say more?
When Qiao Linxi was taking a shower, she felt her eyelids twitching and she didn't know if something was going to happen.
But Qiao Linshan is watching over the house, and there is no dangerous place in the mansion. Besides her, there are also people brought by Qin Xiaoqing in the snack bar. At worst, there are people left by Gu Changfeng to look after the gold and silver, so nothing can happen.
"Maybe I've been too nervous recently, which is why this happened."
Qiao Linxi rubbed his eyelids, put on his clothes, and then started his official business.
The layout of the snack bar is a little different from others. The cooking area is at the door, so Qiao Linxi tied an apron and stood there waiting for customers to come.
The early morning sun was not very hot. Qiao Linxi stood in the sun, with smoke rising from the stove beside her. Everything was so beautiful.
Qin Xiaoqing felt his heart calm down when he saw this scene. If he had a pen, he would have definitely painted such a beautiful scene.
Soon, the snack bar welcomed its first customer.
Perhaps Qiao Linxi's actions yesterday frightened those who wanted to cause trouble. Qiao Linxi received several people who came to eat, and they all paid. None of those people with dirty thoughts showed up. This made Qiao Linxi feel at ease. Although she was not afraid of such people, it would be disgusting if too many people came, right?
In just one morning, Qiao Linxi had earned several hundred coins, which was equal to the income from the previous day. Life was getting better and better, wasn't it?
It was almost noon. Qiao Linxi was cooking for Qin Xiaoqing and his group of people. A beautiful woman came to the door. She walked to the door and asked Qiao Linxi, "Is this Qiao's Snack Bar?"
"Well, do you... have anything to do?" Qiao Linxi looked at the woman. She didn't look like she was here to eat. From her accent, she seemed to be from Lanqing City.
"Are you Boss Qiao?" The woman looked Qiao Linxi up and down, and when she saw Qiao Linxi nod, she suddenly burst into tears.
"Oh my God, why do you let such a black-hearted person live?"
After howling, the woman yelled at the neighbors: "It was this woman. Yesterday, my husband came to her restaurant to eat, and she beat him to death."
Qiao Linxi was completely confused. How could she beat someone to death?
"Aunt, you have to provide evidence when you speak, and you can't falsely accuse anyone."
Qiaoji Snack Shop has been very busy recently. Neighbors gathered around as soon as they heard the noise. Some even grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started cracking them as they came over.
"Sister-in-law, you said that Boss Qiao beat your husband to death. Do you have any evidence?"
"That's right. Although Boss Qiao has a bad reputation, how dare she kill someone?"
Qiao Linxi: She has a bad reputation.
"How come there is no evidence?" The woman saw that more people were gathered around and she pinched her waist and shouted, "Yesterday my husband said he wanted to come here to eat noodles, but he came back with wounds all over his body, and he was dead when he woke up this morning. Don't you think it was her boss Qiao who beat him to death?"
"Aunt, you said I beat your husband to death, right? If everything depends on one's mouth, then I will say that you killed your husband yourself."
Qiao Linxi had already guessed what had happened, but she was not panicked. She was sure that she had definitely not beaten anyone to death yesterday.
"You still don't believe me. That's a life. How could I frame you out of thin air?"
After the woman finished speaking, she clapped her hands, and soon several people came over from the street carrying a wooden board.
As they got closer, Qiao Linxi could clearly see a person on the wooden board, covered with a white cloth.
Those people carried the dead body to the door of Qiao Linxi's shop and put him down. The woman glanced at Qiao Linxi, then threw herself on the dead body and burst into tears.
"My husband, why are you so miserable? You lost your life just for a meal. How could you be so cruel to abandon us, an orphan and a widow? How am I supposed to live in the future?"
"God, please open your eyes and make the decision for us."
The woman cried and did not forget to lift the cloth covering the dead body. The person lying on the wooden board was indeed the one who was beaten by Qiao Linxi yesterday.
"Ah, this, isn't this the man who came to dinner yesterday and was chased and beaten by Boss Qiao? How did he die?"
"My God, he's covered in wounds. I didn't expect that Boss Qiao, who looks young, is so cruel and ruthless."
"It's terrible. If you come here to eat a meal like this, you will lose your life. Who would dare to come to Qiaoji Snack Bar to eat?"
