"The one I'm going to hit is you!" the big, round and muscular servant replied angrily, without any ambiguity in his attack.
Liu De was too lazy to pay attention to him and only ordered, "Hit me hard!"
The servants have received the order, and if you work hard, you will punch me and I will kick you.
"Don't fight! Ouch! It's your grandma's!"
Niu Dan could have said a few words in anger, but under the iron fist, after a while, everyone could only hear his plaintive cry and begging for mercy.
Uncle De saw that he had no strength to scream, and he was afraid that he would do something bad if he really beat the person, so he snorted. The servants immediately stopped, and when they retreated, the villagers saw that the clothes were broken and the people were broken.
He was paralyzed, and even the rope of copper coins protecting his arms was broken.
His face was bruised, and the exposed parts of his arms and chest were covered with bruises. There were footprints on his clothes and pants one after another. It was as miserable as it could be. But that was all, he didn't forget to put the scattered copper coins into his arms.
Floor, not a single one was missed.
Uncle De looked down on people who were desperate for money rather than their lives. He gave a loud "chi" and motioned to the servants to get out of the way. He took a step forward and stepped on the copper plate.
The cow egg raises its head.
I saw that the leader of the other party was in his forties, had a mustache, and his clothes were made of fine cloth, and he looked a bit dignified.
But he didn't recognize this. When did he provoke this evil star? Why didn't he have any memory at all?
"Uncle, did you admit the wrong person?"
He smiled sarcastically, dug out a copper plate from Uncle De's feet and stacked it in front of him.
"No, you are the one who will be beaten today." Uncle De was condescending and twitched his lips at Niudan, "Let me tell you, what is your intention in getting a fake certificate?"
Niudan's heart skipped a beat and his eyes dodged for a moment.
How does this person know...that this document is fake?
No, I don’t know him at all, this old guy must be tricking me!
After all, the temptation of the copper coins in front of him was greater. Even though his whole body hurt from being beaten, Niu Dan still gritted his teeth and denied it.
"It's written in black and white, and there are handprints. How can it be faked? Don't spit on others with blood!" He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the surrounding villagers, "Please help me judge, I am real.
I don’t know him!”
But everyone has not forgotten the abominable look that Niu Dan just extorted. Even though he looks quite miserable now, he doesn't win over people's sympathy at all.
"False documents?"
"He said the note was fake?"
"I don't know, but he is the steward of the Shen family. The master of the Shen family is an official, so he won't lie to others, right?"
Everyone ignored Niu Dan's comments and only discussed the documents and the Shen family.
Uncle De didn't know whether this written statement was true or false. He only knew that if he couldn't complete the errand today, he would have nothing to gain. So even if the written statement was true, it would have to be turned into a fake for him.
If he says yes, then it must be!
"You dare to quibble! Beat me!"
Without giving Niu Dan another chance to speak, he planned to implement this guy's forgery of documents.
After the butler's order, the servants swarmed up and kicked and punched the cow egg.
Shen Ling watched coldly, saying nothing and not stopping him.
Although Zhuang Keqing thought it was a bit disgusting for Niu Dan to come and cause trouble on her wedding day, she felt a little pitiful when she saw him being beaten now.
"stop!"
She shouted.
But how could the Shen family's servant listen to a little girl? He still kept beating him. But Uncle De looked at Shen Ling and raised his hand to ask someone to stop.
He turned to the direction of Zhuang Keqing, smiled and saluted, "Miss Zhuang, Madam was worried when she learned that this guy came to make trouble, so she ordered me to punish him."
"Madam is very kind, and I hope the girl knows."
After that, without waiting for Zhuang Keqing to say anything, he turned to Niudan who was lying on the ground. When he spoke again, he had another expression of contempt, obviously not taking this rogue seriously.
"My mistress is the wife of a dignified county magistrate. How could she slander a nobody like you? She must have known such terrible secrets that she ordered me to come here."
When Niu Dan heard that the other party was the county magistrate's servant, his legs suddenly became weak. If he hadn't been paralyzed on the ground, he would have made a fool of himself in public.
Liu De knew that by mentioning his master's name, he would be able to shock the scoundrel. Now, looking at his expression, he knew that he had a handle on him.
"You still don't admit it!"
A sharp shout frightened Niu Dan's courage.
This document was originally forged by someone who colluded with him. The original intention was to disrupt the marriage of the banker. The man promised that he would be rewarded with two taels of silver when the deal was completed. Although it was said that the deal was not completed, he also got money unexpectedly.
I wanted to grease my soles, but unexpectedly, a group of people appeared on the way and beat me up for nothing. Moreover, these people were actually the official's servants.
Could it be that that matter was exposed?!
"I said! I said!"
At this time, Niu Dan no longer pulled the coins on the floor. Although money is a good thing, you have to spend it with your life!
He hugged Liu De's legs and howled at the top of his lungs.
"It's all, it's all Zhuang San! He came to me half a month ago and said he couldn't bear to see his niece fall into the fire pit and asked me to help him!"
Not to mention the villagers present, even Liu De was stunned.
What?
Is this written evidence true or false?!
He just wanted to scare this guy, but he did it wrongly?
Zhuang Keqing and Shen Ling looked at each other, each seeing a bit of shock and anger in the other's eyes.
"Zhuang San and I have met a few times. That day he came to me for a drink and said something was bothering him. Although I wasn't familiar with him, I wouldn't be happy to be invited to drink, so I listened to what he said." Niu Dan didn't care at all.
Giving everyone a chance to calm down, he explained the cause and effect directly, "He said that his niece had to recruit an unlearned son-in-law, and even his own mother's persuasion was in vain. She was worried.
Very.”
"Then he asked me for help and gave me this note. He said that if he could disturb the marriage on the day of the girl's wedding, he would give me a reward of two taels of silver."
After Niu Dan finished speaking, he saw that all the furniture looked at him in shock, and he suddenly became a little panicked.
He was right to do this, but the idea was all Zhuang San's. Even the documents were prepared by the other party and he had no involvement at all!
"That's it..."
Unbelievable, simply unbelievable!
No wonder someone saw Zhuang's old lady and her two sons appearing at Widow Qin's house last month. Could it be that she went there because she disagreed with Zhuang's recruitment of a son-in-law?
Thinking about it, even if there are families in the village, they usually go around during the New Year and festivals, so there won't be much quarrels. Only this old lady's family is cruel. When the eldest son passed away, he didn't even show his face.
When this granddaughter wanted to find a son-in-law, she knocked on the door.
