The tea shop owner happened to come to the door. He looked up and saw the group of people walking menacingly. He shook his head silently and went about the work at hand.
His action was noticed by Zhong Jinwei, who asked the tea shop owner: "Boss, what's going on?"
When the boss heard the sound and turned his head to look over, Zhong Jinwei shook his head at the group.
Of course the boss responded enthusiastically to the chief advisor's words: "Come to think of it, it's all the kid who caused the trouble!"
When Zhong Jinwei heard this, why did it have anything to do with kindergarten? He quickly asked: "Young school? Are you talking about the kindergarten opened for free by the imperial court?"
"Yes, otherwise there is another kindergarten?" The boss nodded and affirmed.
Zhong Jinwei frowned after hearing this. He glanced at the menacing group, then looked under the tree and found that the couple had noticed someone rushing towards them.
They were entertaining customers with a smile just now, but suddenly they became a little helpless and panicked, whispering something to their customers.
Zhong Jinwei did not turn around to look at the tea shop owner, he just looked at the situation outside and asked: "You are nagging me about what is going on!"
The boss looked at the group of people, and then replied to Zhong Jinwei: "Most of the villagers in that village have the surname Wu. They originally opened private schools within the clan to provide free education to the children of the clan."
As soon as he introduced this, he was interrupted by Zhong Jinwei: "This is a good thing!"
"This guest, the pie in the sky will not be in vain. There is a price for the clan to open a private school and provide free education to the children of the clan." Seeing that the guest did not understand, the owner of the tea shop pointed out.
This time Zhong Jinwei didn't speak, just nodded and continued to listen to the tea shop owner.
"First, if you want to go to a private school in this clan, you must have a good relationship with the clan leader. In other words, you must have a good relationship with the clan leader and not offend."
Zhong Jinwei said "hmm", which is understandable.
"Second, after entering a private school, if you want to achieve something, you must do things for the clan. In other words, even if you are admitted as a child student, a scholar, or even a scholar, you must still work for the clan and listen to the clan leader in everything.
.”
When Zhong Jinwei heard this, a word flashed in his mind: clan. This word is already relatively unfamiliar to people born after the 1980s. But in the past, the influence of clan was everywhere and often controlled places.
The power is extremely powerful.
Zhong Jinwei turned back and glanced at the tea shop owner and asked, "What happens next?"
The boss pointed to the village in front of him and said: "The chief of the clan named Wu is greedy, and some of his subordinates swallowed their anger to please him so that their children could attend private schools in the clan."
"But things are different now. The government has set up kindergartens, which are also free. Some people, such as the couple in front, can't stand the greed of their patriarch, no longer please the patriarch, and send their children to kindergartens to study."
"As a result, the clan leader was offended, and he was looking for trouble all day long. He also ordered the Wu clan members not to go to kindergarten, otherwise they would be interested in whoever looks good!"
When Zhong Jinwei heard what the tea shop owner said, he saw the menacing group of people rushing under the tree, flipping chairs and smashing tables.
Those customers had been persuaded by the couple to leave before the group arrived, otherwise there was no guarantee that the fish pond would not be affected.
The head of the house was arguing with the group, while his wife was hiding behind, protecting her son.
Zhong Jinwei turned to Gu Baichuan and said, "Go and bring them here."
Gu Baichuan saw the Duke asking about this matter before, and it also involved kindergarten, so he knew that he would definitely take care of this matter.
Therefore, as soon as Zhong Jinwei said so, he sent Wang Peng to lead four guards there.
When the tea shop owner saw that the passing wealthy guest was meddling in his own business, he couldn't help but remind him: "Sir, the people in that village are not easy to get along with. Especially the clan leader and the county captain are close friends for eight years and have a good relationship.
As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake, and it is better to do less than to do more..."
A small county captain is as big as the sky to ordinary people like them. Zhong Jinwei knew that he was kindly reminding himself by saying this, so he turned his head and smiled and said to him: "Don't worry, boss, it's okay."
When the tea shop owner saw that Zhong Jinwei didn't listen to his advice, he sighed and went about his own business.
The travelers who were drinking tea stood up and left two more people. But the others looked excited, obviously wanting to watch the fight against injustice.
The group under the tree saw five people approaching here, and they seemed to want to meddle in other people's business. One of them immediately went up to him, pointed at the leader Wang Peng and said: "This is a matter within our clan. Outsiders should not interfere blindly.
"
Wang Peng snorted coldly, turned a blind eye and continued to move forward.
When the man saw it, he immediately pointed his finger at Wang Peng's face and said loudly: "If you want to meddle in other people's business, don't blame us for being rude. There are eight of us. Beating them to death and maiming them is the price for your nosy business. You...
.ah..."
Before he could finish his words, a soldier approached and kicked him in the stomach, causing him to fall backwards with a scream.
Five of the other seven villagers continued to smash things, while the other two stopped the man and refused to let him stop him.
When they heard the screams, they all stopped what they were doing and turned their heads to look over.
At first glance, it seemed that it was not bad, the patriarch's son had been beaten. The seven men immediately put down their work and surrounded him.
In the blink of an eye, without Wang Peng taking action, the other four guards knocked them to the ground in minutes.
Wang Peng glanced at the scene, glanced at the people on the ground like ants, and then said coldly: "My master, please come over if you want."
The eight villagers who had been arrogant just now were frightened. They stood up with grins and had to come over to the tea shop under the surveillance of the guards.
Wang Peng, on the other hand, approached the family and said kindly: "You guys should go over too. The master will ask questions later. One person will say one thing and the other will say two things. It will be to your benefit."
As long as you are not a fool, you can see that these strangers of unknown origin are biased towards them. Therefore, the family gratefully agreed and then followed Wang Peng to the tea shop.
After walking a few steps, a villager suddenly ran into the fields nearby, shouting: "Don't worry, young patriarch, I'll go ask the patriarch and the county captain to make them look good."
The guard closest to the man wanted to chase him, but was stopped by Wang Peng. He wanted to invite the county captain over, but Wang Peng really had to wait.
When a group of people came to the tea shop, a servant shouted to the group of villagers: "Kneel down."
Wang Peng went straight to Zhong Jinwei and reported: "Sir, a villager escaped and said he was going to invite the county captain to come over."
Before Zhong Jinwei could answer, the tea shop owner who had been paying attention to this matter heard Wang Peng's words and exclaimed: "Yes, the county lieutenant from before went to their village!"
Then he approached Zhong Jinwei and persuaded in a voice that could not be heard by the people kneeling at the door: "Sir, please leave quickly! You will suffer a loss against the county captain."
