Chapter 163:
“Zhao Zhao, what does this mean?”
Li Zhengxin’s gaze met the man who spoke from the crowd, Zhao Zhao.
“Why don’t you quickly explain.”
They were originally happy to see it happen too. This thing had caused trouble again. It would be best to beat that damned beast to death, but
Zhao Zhao exchanged a glance with his father: “That day, we encountered this fierce dog just outside the city gate. At that time, it wasn’t yet Luo Zhi’er’s family’s dog!”
“What’s going on?”
“It is, it is the Young Master’s dog!”
“Young Master?”
What Young Master?
Everyone discussed animatedly. “That day outside the city gate, I was attacked by this fierce dog. Luckily, it didn’t bite me, just pushed me rolling. From what that person said, he was a person of the Young Master of the Marquis’s Mansion!”
Zhao Er trembled as he recalled the scene from that day. He remembered that person saying he was bullying that little girl, and the Young Master wouldn’t let him off.
“I don’t know why, but this dog has now become Luo Zhi’er’s family’s.”
“Since it’s the Marquis’s Mansion’s dog, it must not be cheap. Just don’t know which Marquis’s Mansion?”
Li Zuzu stroked his beard and said.
He looked at Luo Zhi’er. Probably only she knew about this matter. “San Mao’s Wife, what exactly happened?”
“That’s right, this dog was indeed given to me by someone. That day I went into the city to buy white sugar for Old Lady Zhao, leaving Miaomiao outside the city to watch the mule cart. Just then Uncle Zhao Er, Brother Zhao Zhao, and Aunt Huaihua passed by. I’m not too clear on exactly what happened at the time, but that servant gave the dog to Miaomiao, and brought a message to take good care of this Dog. They would come to see it when they had time. It is their master’s treasure!”
“Moreover, that person said if any more blind-eyed turtle bastards bully the little girl, they would let this fierce dog bite them. If anything happens, the Young Master of their Marquis’s Mansion would take responsibility!”
“What?”
“Why would the Young Master of the Marquis’s Mansion help her?”
Everyone looked at Miaomiao with eyes full of puzzled scrutiny.
And what bad thing exactly did Zhao Er’s family do?
The crowd’s suspicious gazes made Zhao Er feel extremely guilty, and Zhao Zhao also hung his head.
He should have reminded Zhao Zhao earlier not to speak recklessly, but if he hadn’t spoken just now, and they had beaten and killed this dog, it would lead to endless trouble later.
They were people of Zhao Li Village. Beating and killing were one body. When the time came to investigate, could they say they didn’t know each other?
That said, this Dog would be hard to deal with now.
This matter was ninety percent true. If it really was the Young Master of the Marquis’s Mansion’s dog, then they would have stirred up a hornet’s nest. Not to mention compensating that thousand gold, the subsequent troubles would be endless!
“But exactly which Young Master is it? We haven’t heard recently of any Young Master of a Marquis’s Mansion coming to visit Taoyuan Town?”
“San Mao’s Wife, do you know?”
Luo Zhi’er quickly shook her head.
“This is probably someone from the Capital City. We’d better take a long-term view!” Zhao Zuzu said.
At the founding of the Dongli Kingdom, about twenty-eight people were enfeoffed as marquises and nobles. Later, they were weakened and killed by almost all by the Dongli Emperor Gaozu. Passed down to now, only those with imperial clan blood can be enfeoffed as marquises or kings. Marquis and king together, currently there are five in total, with fiefdoms, and this system can be passed down for three generations.
Anping Marquis, Marquis Changle, Xuanyou King, Yunan King, Zhaozhao King.
All of them have some blood relation to the imperial clan through kinship. They all have fiefdoms.
It was hard to say exactly which mansion’s Young Master had come here. Everyone’s hearts were already trembling with fear. Ordinary folk, who would dare to provoke someone with imperial blood? Then they still shouldn’t beat and kill this Bill!
They not only didn’t dare to beat and kill it, but also had to respect it, fearing others would play dirty tricks.
This girl Miaomiao has good fortune. She actually received the protection of the Young Master of the Marquis Mansion. Who knows, perhaps in the future she might even transform.
Li Zuzu, Zhao Zuzu, Li Zhengxin said a few words, and took the villagers to disperse!
Li Wei was so angry his face turned blue. Today he had brought so many people to take revenge on that Fatty, yet they all went back, and even that damned beast was spared!
Seeing Li Wei’s malicious gaze, Luo Zhi’er curled her lip.
Zhao Xiaomei returned home dejectedly. Seeing Li Wei’s gloomy expression, she held half an ear and cried: “This heaven-cursed Luo Zhi’er, she made Mother lose an ear. Wei Wa, you must think of a way to avenge Mother. Mother really can’t swallow this anger!”
Li Wei’s face was inscrutable. “Hmph! Luo Zhi’er, just you wait!” He flicked his sleeve and went to the town.
“You this woman, didn’t you hear that the dog belongs to the Young Master of which Marquis’s Mansion? You’re making Wei Wa go fight them to the death. How exactly are you acting as a mother?”
“It’s not because you’re useless. The one whose ear was eaten by the dog wasn’t you!”
Li Zhengsen’s mood was also very low and complicated. Provoking a Young Master wasn’t any good thing.
If he had to choose between his wife’s ear and his son’s life, he naturally hoped his son wouldn’t go take revenge again!
Meanwhile, Ding Lao Si and his group returned to the town and sent a thug specifically to scout for information on the road where the prefecture magistrate’s young master left school.
At the end of school, they finally encountered Wang Jiji and Jia Luan walking together at the school doorway, along with their bookboys.
“Hehe, it’s Young Master Wang. Young Master Wang, this little one has something to ask you!”
That thug pretended to be a passerby and politely stepped forward to inquire.
“Who are you?”
Wang Jiji frowned tightly, looked at Jia Luan, and Jia Luan shook his head.
“This little one is just passing by. I just want to ask if you know a woman called Luo Zhi’er?”
“Luo Zhi’er, who?”
Wang Jiji felt baffled, glanced at his bookboy, who also looked clueless. They prepared to return to the mansion.
“So, you don’t know her?”
“Don’t know!”
Wang Jiji flicked his sleeve and walked away with Jia Luan!
The thug was secretly annoyed. It seemed he had been fooled by that damned Fatty. Damn, what big guts. He had made him run several trips in vain. See if he didn’t go back and let Fourth Master properly deal with her.
“Wait!”
That thug was stunned. “What’s wrong, Young Master Wang?”
“Did you just say something about a Fatty?”
What big guts? To deal with her?
“Uh, hehe, yes!”
The thug wiped his sweat.
“Describe her appearance in detail, that woman’s.”
“She has the surname Luo, a particularly fat woman. Oh, right, she said yesterday she made you some cake to eat, and you liked it a lot?”
The thug probed as he watched the expression on his face.
“Heh, interesting. It’s her.”
Wang Jiji became intrigued.
“So, Young Master Wang, you really know her?”
Wang Jiji silently sized up this person who was probing him for information.
This person didn’t look like a passerby, but more like one of those thugs his father had punished. Although he was still studying at school, he wasn’t stupid.
His eyes flashed. This Fatty seemed to have run into trouble!
Not small guts, daring to use his name to swindle. Should he intervene or not?
A bit fun!
Thinking of how she ignored him made him want to properly deal with her.
Thinking of that delicious taste really made him savor it endlessly.
This Fatty, sly and clever with plenty of mind, knew his father was the county magistrate and actually named him Wang Jiji!
And Bei Yao and Shaoqing both seemed to respect her. Life was really boring. Suddenly he wanted to learn more about her, and also know where she lived.
“Wang Xiong, is there something wrong?”
Jia Luan inquired.
“Hehe, who are you?”
The thug stammered, “I, I am…”
“Not small guts, daring to bully someone under my Wang Jiji?”
That thug was immediately frightened and panicked: “This little one doesn’t dare!”
“Hmph! Good that you don’t dare. Do you know who my father is? Daring to openly provoke me Wang Jiji, think about the consequences!”
“This little one knows his mistake. Please forgive me, Young Master Wang!”
“Why don’t you scram quickly!”
