As soon as these words came out, the newly dressed veterans shrank unconsciously.

The morale inspired by Zhuangzi was immediately destroyed. Some even lowered their heads and took a few steps back, trying to escape into the shadows.

People with disabilities are mostly sensitive.

And the world is used to looking at them with special eyes.

Whether it is with malicious disdain or with good-natured pity, for veterans with disabilities, those eyes falling on the incomplete parts are like hot knives, repeating the grief and despair over and over again, and also a little bit late. to their hearts.

They want to retreat.

But I saw the shopkeeper on the side stood up again and said loudly: "So what if they are disabled? Do you know what they have experienced and why they are like what they are now?"

The shopkeeper looked at the old man with burning eyes and asked sternly: "I've seen you before. Are you the owner of Xianwei Zhai next door? I want to ask you, why do you look down on them? Why do you look down on them?"

The old man was called out in public and couldn't get off the stage. After hearing this, he frowned and replied: "Since you have a disability, you should stay at home. It's really unsightly to show up like this."

Xue Ji Shaodong also nodded and agreed: "That's right, it is stipulated during the scientific examination that people with disabilities are not allowed to take the scientific examination, just to prevent these people from coming out to interact with others. Your store is also funny, and you are not afraid of bringing in a group of disabled people. It’s off-putting!”

This is indeed an exaggeration, but it is mostly true.

Although the crowd of onlookers felt that what he said was unpleasant, no one stood up to refute it and just waited silently for the next sentence.

The shopkeeper glanced at the crowd and saw that no one offered any help. Tears filled his eyes immediately and he pointed at the dejected veterans and said, "They are all soldiers who have retired from the battlefield!"

His voice was high-pitched, "They were once young people with sound limbs, good sons in the eyes of their parents and elders, and good boys in the eyes of their neighbors!"

"It's because they went to the battlefield and fought hard against the barbarians on the front line for Dong Rui and every common person, throwing their heads and blood, and using their bodies to withstand the enemy's knives and swords, that's why they ended up where they are now."

As the shopkeeper spoke, he walked up to a veteran and grabbed his arm that was missing his palm, "These hands have held knives, why can't they lift a small snack box!"

"There are three battlefields in the south, north, and west. Countless soldiers shed blood and sweat in exchange for our peaceful days. Only by hiding under the protection of their flesh and blood can you live such a safe and comfortable life!"

"What right do you have to look down on them?"

"You are not qualified to eat the roast duck they sent, you are not worthy!"

The shopkeeper's words left the old man speechless.

Even Xue Ji Shaodong moved his lips several times, but could not squeeze out another retort.

The shopkeeper ignored them and took two steps forward, "Today our Fulai Roast Duck Restaurant is here to announce that we are willing to hire veterans as our waiters. If you cannot eat because of this, then don't eat our roast duck. Our store only sells food to conscientious people!”

After the call ended, the scene was as quiet as a chicken.

"Okay! Well said!"

Suddenly someone in the crowd started to applaud.

Immediately, many people spontaneously applauded.

"Just say this to the shopkeeper, I will definitely accept you as a member of the roast duck restaurant!" A stout man strode out of the store.

When passing by the group of veterans, he grinned at them and nodded slightly.

"Hey, I eat too, I eat too!"

Since him, many more people have entered the store one after another.

The bosses stood there with ugly expressions on their faces.

Especially the old man, whose face was red from suppressing pain but couldn't utter a single word. He was extremely embarrassed.

The shopkeeper walked over and cupped his hands towards them, "I heard that business in the south of the city is good and there are many jokes, so my boss specially opened the store here. I'm Wen Ming, I'm new here, please give me some advice."

The old man gritted his teeth and walked away.

Xue Ji Shaodong snorted coldly and left.

Although the remaining bosses looked unhappy, they still returned the favor with great grace.

"Don't take it seriously as advice. They are all neighbors, just making a living."

After saying that, he said goodbye and left.

But on the way back, my steps were particularly heavy.

This new roast duck restaurant has such a big opening, their business may be greatly affected in the future.

Yunling watched the whole thing upstairs and was very satisfied.

"Where did you find this Wen Ming? He's a character!"

Whether speaking or doing things, it can be said that there is no leakage.

Especially for the membership brand and the worry-free delivery waiter, she only told He Yi a few words, but didn't go into so much detail. However, with just a few words, this person made arrangements that far exceeded her expectations.

Also, it is particularly inciting to emotions.

What he said today will definitely be circulated in Yuezhou City. It is impossible to say that in the future, people in the city will be more tolerant and less contemptuous when they see people with disabilities.

He Yi's eyes fell on Wen Ming, and his tone was somewhat respectful, "Uncle Wen used to be a military advisor under Lord Xuanhou."

"Uncle Wen left the military camp after Lord Marquis died in the battle. I thought he had returned to his hometown to marry a wife and have children, but he didn't expect to meet him when he went to Zhuangzi in the north of the city to recruit people. Only then did he know that he had been living in Zhuangzi these years."

If Wen Ming hadn't taken the initiative to talk to him, he wouldn't have known Wen Ming's identity at all. He later confirmed it after asking Mrs. Mo.

Yunling was even more puzzled, "He has good hands and feet and is not injured. Judging from his conversation, it is clear that he has good talent and learning. Why did he go to Zhuangzi to seek a living?"

He Yi shook his head, "I don't know this either, but the old lady said he must be trustworthy."

Yunling thought to herself that since this person was trustworthy and had once been a military advisor, then being the shopkeeper of a small roast duck restaurant would be overkill.

"When you're not busy, please ask Shopkeeper Wen to come over. I have something to ask."

Heyi followed Yunling for a while and roughly guessed what she meant. He immediately became happy and said, "Yes."

While the two were talking, Mingzhu said: "Miss Yue is downstairs."

"Go and invite me up."

Yue Jinhua is indeed here.

Her maid Yuan'er also carried a basket of dried fruits.

"Well, good business."

"Thank you Miss Yue San for the honor."

Yunling smiled and said to Heyi, "Go down and do your work and have someone bring up two roast ducks."

As soon as He Yi left, Yue Jinhua said: "I didn't come here to eat ducks."

Yunling nodded, "I want you to have a taste."

Soon a waiter came up with roast duck.

Yunling asked Mingzhu and Yuan'er to take one next door to eat, while she personally showed Yue Jinhua how to eat it.

"how?"

"It's very delicious." Yue Jinhua praised it.

The fragrant and soft dough is wrapped in slices of duck meat, and then put in shredded cucumber dipped in sauce. When you bite into it, it is refreshing and refreshing, without any greasy feeling.

Neither of them mentioned anything else, they just sat opposite each other and ate roast duck leisurely.

After a while, a roast duck hit the bottom.

After finishing the salt and pepper duck rack in equal portions, the two of them were so full that their bellies were full.

Yue Jinhua then wiped the corners of his lips and said in a low voice: "Someone sent a letter to Lin Jiayue."
