The servant of Shangshixuan had never seen such a fight before, he was too frightened to move at the side, but at this time the shopkeeper went out to meet guests, at least it would take several hours to come back.

For a while, the scene was out of control.

"Ouch—my stomach! Folks, don't buy anything from this store! I just ate a small piece, and it hurts so much that I'm on the floor!"

The man yelled, and even took time to peek to see if there were many people around, and if there were not many, he yelled harder, for fear that others would not know how bad he was in pain.

The people around also recognized that this was a poor household, named Liang Cai, who did some stealthy things on weekdays, and his sick mother didn't serve him, but often stole his mother's medicine money and went to restaurants to support his face.

At this moment, there was another disturbance in front of Shangshixuan, and the people around couldn't help showing disgust.

But at the same time, I couldn't help being curious, Liang Cai usually bullied the weak and feared the strong, and only went to his relative's store to play tricks, and Shangshixuan had nothing to do with him, why did he have the guts to come here today?

You know, Tang Zhengzhi, the shopkeeper of Shangshixuan, is quite powerful in the town.

Thinking of this, they all stopped and surrounded the entrance of Shangshixuan tightly.

"The mugwort cake made by Mo Jingcheng is very poisonous! Let's report to the officer and arrest him!" Liang Cai was still yelling bitterly, afraid that no one would pay attention to him.

Everyone was stunned.

Mo Jingcheng?Is it the guy who figured out the scarecrow trick?It turns out that this fresh and delicious wormwood cake was also made by him?

When the mugwort cake first came into the market, people speculated about who made this peerless pastry, but since the time to give the mugwort cake was before dawn, no one except the servants from Shangshixuan No one knows.

Unexpectedly, the unraveling of this mystery was under such circumstances.

But people couldn't help but wondered again, how did they know that this Liang material was Mo Jingcheng's mugwort cake?

"Liang Cai, you are talking nonsense! I'll be fine after eating this mugwort cake!" Someone in the crowd replied loudly, probably because they couldn't bear to hear such unpleasant scolding.

"Then that's because you're partial to him! Deceitful!" Liang Cai didn't expect that someone would speak for a strange man, and he couldn't react for a while, then stammered and cursed, "Oh my mother, why are you so dead Bitter!"

After hearing this, everyone understood that Liang Cai was deliberately causing trouble, but after all, it was food, and no one dared to underestimate it, so they hesitated for a while and did not go to Shangshixuan to buy pastries.

Moreover, this Liang Cai can be regarded as a distant relative of the Liang family. The Liang family has always relied on their own power to do things wrong, and even the less well-behaved juniors use this reputation to support them.

If anyone disobeyed the Liang family's wishes, then the next day they could see how that family fell miserably.Therefore, everyone was afraid to stand out.

Now that the boys know that their business has been blocked, their foreheads are sweating.

Mo Jingcheng, who was standing far away, watched all this indifferently, without any disturbance in his mood.

Just now he was worried that this scumbag would say Fang Yun's name, but when he heard the other party pointing at him, he was relieved and didn't intend to pay any attention to it.

Anyone with a discerning eye would know that this Po Laihu named Liang Cai came straight to him.

It's not that Zuo Zuo has never been framed in the future, and this level can't do him any harm at all, just like a pebble falling into the sea, it can't stir up any waves.

Besides, this store doesn't belong to him, why is he so anxious?Anyway, Fang Yun is good at craftsmanship, and he is doing business wherever he goes.

He already knew these principles.

Thinking that it was impossible to see the sales of pastries today, he wanted to lead Fang Yun away from here, but the latter stopped in his tracks.

Mo Jingcheng sensed that something was wrong, so he looked at the person standing beside him, only to see that the other person's brows were tightly frowned.

Seeing this scene just now, Fang Yun was very anxious, he just actually heard Brother Mo's name!No matter how stupid he was, he could sense that Liang Cai was coming towards Brother Mo, so he couldn't help but feel his heart tighten.

Out of impatience, he gestured at Mo Jingcheng indiscriminately, his eyes filled with tears unknowingly.

Mo Jingcheng naturally understood what he meant, and said patiently and softly, "Why do you think you hurt me? It's because you made the pastry, but he pointed out my name?"

Being told what was on his mind, Fang Yun nodded fiercely, the tears in Xing's eyes rolled out, and he continued to choke.

Seeing people so worried, Mo Jingcheng wiped away the other person's tears with his fingertips, and comforted him, "You don't have to take everything on yourself. Besides, it's not your fault. There's nothing wrong with the cakes you made. It's just that he's targeting me."

"Let's go back first. If something goes wrong, shopkeeper Tang will come to find us. If we come forward now, we will cause some trouble."

Tang Zhengzhi also has some influence, so it would be best if he can settle this matter.If it can't be settled, then find another way.

It was useless to stay here, so Fang Yun nodded obediently, followed Mo Jingcheng, bypassed the crowd, and went back to the village early.

After a few days, Tang Zhengzhi still did not come, so Fang Yun secretly prayed that nothing happened.

Shopkeeper Tang sent a letter, explaining the whole story, and told them not to worry, and not to send pastries for the time being.

It turned out that Liang Cai asked someone to buy mugwort cake at Shangshixuan a few days ago, and after returning home to eat it for his mother, his mother became even more ill, talking nonsense in a delirious manner.Liang Cai ran to Shangshixuan to make a fuss, insisting that the mugwort cake inside was not clean, and that's why there was a big fuss.

After cooperating for so long, Tang Zhengzhi naturally knew what Mo Jingcheng and Fang Yun were like, and also saw Liang Cai's malicious intentions, so he reported it to the government and waited for the government to deal with it.

For this reason, Tang Zhengzhi also secretly sent money to the official, asking him to investigate this matter as soon as possible.

Fang Yun felt uneasy, for fear that the government would arrest Brother Mo, and he would be stopped by Brother Mo from explaining, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and he was too impatient to eat, and his cheeks lost a lot of weight.

At this moment, Mo Jingcheng saw that people were restless and dazed even with the handkerchief in their hands, so he walked into the kitchen without saying a word, and secretly searched for some appetizing soup in his mind.

He is not very good at cooking, but at least he still has the operation steps in his mind. Although it seems that the salt in a bowl of sour soup is less, the vinegar is more, and the sugar is not well weighed.

But overall, the taste seems to be good.

Looking at the sour soup in the bowl that was mushy and gave off a slight burnt smell, Mo Jingcheng suddenly felt that his craftsmanship seemed a little too bad.

After hesitating for a while, I decided to take it secretly and pour it out.Unexpectedly, Fang Yun smelled a sour smell at this time, and also entered the kitchen.

He saw the bowl in Mo Jingcheng's hand at a glance, the haze in his eyes dissipated, his almond eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his beautiful eyes and blinked.

There is unspeakable joy in the eyes.

Mo Jing made a move, and was embarrassed to hide the bowl, so she explained: "I saw that you have a bad appetite, so I wanted to make something to appetize you."

Hearing this, Fang Yun grinned, gestured with his hand to thank him, and took it without hesitation.

Just as he picked up the bowl to drink, there were loud shouts from the yard.

"Mo Jingcheng! Come out for me"

Fang Yun paused, and hurried out with Mo Jingcheng before he could drink the soup.When he saw the person coming, he was taken aback for a moment, and his heart was filled with panic. He held on to Mo Jingcheng's clothes tightly, for fear that he would be taken away in a blink of an eye.

The three people standing in the yard were dressed in blue official uniforms, with a machete pinned to their waists, and their faces were stern, looking fierce and reticent to speak.

The people who came were government servants.

Seeing people coming out, the leading yamen servant frowned, and looked suspiciously at the man standing upright in front of him and the little brother behind him, they didn't look like people who would kill anyone.

But they were also ordered to arrest people, so it was hard to ask too many questions.

"Our official ordered us to arrest you and go back! If you are sensible, come with us!"

But Mo Jingcheng didn't move at all, he still stood upright, looking straight at the yamen servant without any fear.

In the end, Mo Jingcheng raised his cold eyes, and said slowly, "Dare to ask, what crime did the villain commit, do you have evidence?"

In just a few words, the yamen servant was speechless.

Their official just hastily convicted Mo Jingcheng and ordered them to arrest him. Naturally, there was no evidence.

"Could it be that you want to disobey the official order!" The yamen servant knew that he was wrong, so he choked out this sentence.

After all, the leading yamen servant nodded his chin at the people behind him.Seeing this, the other two rushed forward with grim faces.

Mo Jingcheng frowned, and was no longer polite when he saw people make a move. His brain automatically entered the protective action, pushed Fang Yun to a safe position, grabbed the arm of the rushing yamen servant, turned sideways, and threw him to the ground.

Seeing this, the other yamen servant shouted loudly, and rushed forward again meaninglessly. Mo Jingcheng turned sideways and dodged past deftly.

From the beginning to the end, Mo Jingcheng never touched a single yamen servant.

The two yamen servants fell to the ground one after the other, their faces rubbed to the ground to draw bloodstains, and they covered their faces in pain and howled.

Seeing this, the leading yamen servant turned pale with fright, and drew out the scimitar at his side with a "swipe" sound, and was about to charge forward.

"stop!"

Suddenly, a scolding sounded from behind.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Shi Yandao in a red wide-sleeved official uniform standing behind the yamen servant with a gloomy expression.

With a "plop", the knife in the yamen servant's hand fell to the ground. After recognizing that it was the magistrate, his legs softened and he knelt on the ground.

The other two yamen servants also held back the pain at this time, and they all stumbled forward and knelt down to worship the magistrate.

Shi Yandao wanted to come here to ask about the scarecrow again, and he was in a good mood and wanted to eat some wormwood cakes, but when he saw a few government servants besieging Mo Jingcheng, his beard rose to the sky, "He committed a crime!" What's the matter?"

"Master magistrate, he..." the yamen servant faltered for a moment and dared not speak.

The yamen servant had a bad heart, so the official told Wan that if Mo Jingcheng talked too much, he would directly tie him up, but he never expected to run into the county magistrate in such a remote place.

"Say!"

The yamen servant was so frightened that he slammed his head on the ground, "The official said that Mo Jingcheng transported poisonous cakes to Shangshixuan for sale, and ordered us to arrest him."

"Where is the evidence?" Shi Yan asked them sideways.

This made it difficult for the yamen servants.

The case hadn't been tried yet, so the official decided that Mo Jingcheng had done it, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that there was something wrong behind it.But these little yamen servants don't dare to talk too much, they can only follow through, otherwise they will be themselves.

"So it's gone?"

The yamen servants slammed their heads on the ground tightly, not daring to say a word, which seemed to be acquiescing to what Shi Yandao said.

"Tell you officers, this case has been tried by me. I want to see who dares to play tricks in front of me."
