Mr. Wen looked at the furious old man. “Are you Liu Dazhong, Steamed Bun Liu?”

The old man looked at Mr. Wen in a daze for a while and looked at him with a smile that was uglier than crying. “Mr. Wen, I haven’t seen you for nearly 20

years, right? You’re still as elegant as ever! I’m already in dire straits. I don’t even have a place to invite you to sit.”

Mr. Wen pointed at the tables and chairs in the hall and smiled. “I’ll treat you to a seat!”

Steamed Bun Liu cupped his hands and said, “Thank you, sir.”

Seeing that they were taking their seats in the hall, the shop assistants did not dare to chase them away. One of them turned around and ran towards the backyard.

Mr. Wen looked at Bun Liu in confusion. “Why are you so down and out? Isn’t this restaurant yours? What happened to your little girl?”

“Sir, you know that I, Steamed Bun Liu, can be considered a kind person! When the beggars on the street have to come to the door, when haven’t I given them food? If someone begs me, as long as it’s within my ability, I’ll help! Why do the heavens have to treat me like this? Sir, please help me.”

As Steamed Bun Liu spoke, he knelt in front of Mr. Wen and cried bitterly.

Everyone’s hearts ached when they saw this. Yangyang, Little Loach, and the others’ eyes turned red.

Mr. Wen helped him up with red eyes. “Get up and talk. We’re old acquaintances. Tell me, what happened to you all these years? Where’s your wife and daughter?”

Steamed Bun Liu wiped his tears and looked at Mr. Wen with tears in his eyes.

He only had one thought in his mind: to find his daughter and granddaughter.

“Sir, you’re a divine doctor. Please save my daughter. A few years ago, I saved a down-and-out scholar. Later, I even betrothed my daughter to him. Who knew that he was a poisonous snake? Now, he still wants to kill my Liu family.”

Steamed Bun Liu recalled that there were also many people who wanted to propose back then. His daughter liked that scholar with the surname He. Although he was not very satisfied with Scholar He, he agreed to their marriage since his daughter liked him. Who knew that he would enter the tiger’s den?

Mr. Wen said angrily, “How can there be such a heartless person?”

At this moment, the shop assistant walked over with a handsome young man with gloomy eyes. The man sized up Mr. Wen, Zhou Jia, and the others. Seeing that Zhou Jia and Li Yu were not ordinary-looking, but their clothes were only better than ordinary people, and they even brought a few children, he thought to himself that they were just small landlords in the countryside and there was no need to be polite to them.

He said unhappily, “Dear guests, since you’ve eaten and drunk enough, please leave the shop.”

“He Yuqing, you poisonous snake. Return my daughter to me. Where did you lock her up?” Steamed Bun Liu roared and rushed towards the man.

“Old thing, you have a death wish. I’ll fulfill your wish.” He Yuqing was arrogant. He raised his leg and kicked. Zhao Cai pushed the man away and pulled Steamed Bun Liu behind her.

He Yuqing staggered a few steps and was supported by the shop assistant. He waved his hand and shouted at the shop assistant in the restaurant, “Beat them up. Drive them out.”

The shop assistant rushed forward with a stick. Steamed Bun Liu blocked him.

“It’s none of their business. Don’t attack them.”

He pointed at his head and shouted, “Dog, if you have the ability, fight here. You bastards, just wait to be imprisoned!”

Zhao Cai took a step forward and stood in front of Steamed Bun Liu. He looked at them coldly. The shop assistant looked at Zhao Cai and Steamed Bun Liu and did not dare to attack.

He Yuqing pointed at Steamed Bun Liu arrogantly. “If you kill that old thing, I’ll reward you with 100 silver.”

With a heavy reward, there would definitely be brave men. The shop assistant at the front thought of the white silver and raised his wooden stick fiercely to hit Steamed Bun Liu’s head.

Zhao Cai raised his chair and knocked the shop assistant’s wooden stick away. He kicked him away. The shop assistant hit the table stool and screamed.

The remaining people raised their wooden sticks and cowered as they looked at Zhao Cai, but they did not dare to go forward.

Han San picked up a wooden stick and pointed at the shop assistants. “Do you have to work for a vicious person to earn some money? He even dared to hit his father-in-law. If you really help him kill someone, you’ll be the ones to be sued. The money won’t reach your pockets. Do you think he really has the ability to buy your lives?”

Li Yu smiled and applauded when she heard that. “Han San is right. You ignorant things actually dare to help. I think you are tired of living.”

When the dozen or so club-wielding waiters heard this, they looked at each other and hesitated to continue.

He Yuqing was furious. He pointed at Li Yu and scolded, “B*tch…”

Zhou Jia said angrily, “Zhao Cai, smash this dog’s mouth.”

At the same time that Zhou Jia’s voice sounded, Li Yu had already grabbed the chopsticks on the table and thrown them at He Yuqing. The chopsticks flew out like snakes and hit He Yuqing’s mouth. He Yuqing covered his mouth and screamed. He let go and saw that his hands were filled with fallen front teeth.

Seeing that the situation was bad, the shopkeeper hiding upstairs quietly retreated. The waiters also fled in all directions.

He Yuqing’s eyes widened with blood in his mouth as he looked at Li Yu in horror. Han San, Little Loach, and the others widened their mouths in surprise.

The shop assistant ran away, and Zhao Cai retreated. Yangyang clapped and said, “Mother is so good. She knocked out the bad guy’s teeth.” Little Loach and the others also clapped and laughed.

Li Yu looked at Zhao Cai and said, “Zhao Cai, subdue that dog. Don’t let him move again.”

“Yes, Madam.” Zhao Cai went forward and pressed the terrified He Yuqing to the ground.

Li Yu said to Steamed Bun Liu, “Uncle, tell me, what’s going on? Is your

daughter dead or alive?”

Steamed Bun Liu looked at the imposing Li Yu and her husband and was no longer afraid. He pointed at He Yuqing and cried, “Mr. Wen, Madam, Master, this poisonous snake framed my daughter for being a lunatic and said that she wanted to kill someone, so he locked her up. I’ve searched everywhere I can. My daughter might have been locked up in the cellar in the backyard by him. I came today to look for her in the cellar in the backyard.”

As Steamed Bun Liu spoke, he walked towards the backyard. Zhou Jia said to

Zhao Cai, “Zhao Cai, hand that He guy to Han San. Go to the backyard with

Uncle Liu.”

“Yes, Master.” Zhao Cai slapped the back of He Yuqing’s neck and knocked him unconscious to the ground. Han San went forward to guard him.

Zhao Cai followed Steamed Bun Liu to the backyard. There was a small courtyard in the backyard. The small courtyard was filled with flowers and plants that emitted a faint fragrance.

Old Liu jogged to the room, pushed open the door, and opened the wooden board covering the mouth of the cellar. Zhao Cai took out a lighter and blew on it. It followed Steamed Bun Liu down.

Steamed Bun Liu said in an unstable manner, “Little brother, this is where the restaurant stores food. I guess he must have locked my daughter below. There’s an oil lamp on the right-hand wall.”

Zhao Cai lit the oil lamp. In the dim light, he saw a disheveled woman in the corner of the cellar. She was in tatters. A chain was tied to her feet and locked to the pillar. She shrank behind the pillar in fear and unease, not daring to look at him and Liu.

“Yulian, my child, Father is here.” Bun Liu cried and rushed up. When Yu Lian heard Bun Liu’s voice, she rushed out from behind the pillar and staggered towards Bun Liu. She cried, “Father, where did you go? Don’t you want Lian’er anymore? He hit me.. Lian’er hurts! Father…”
