"Stop!" As soon as Lu Shizhu went out and saw this situation, he frowned and tried to snatch Ping'er over, but was pushed by the man.
The man was so strong that he was pushed away. He didn't even touch the corner of Ping'er's clothes.
He suddenly said with disbelief on his face: "Are you going to do something with me?"
"Are you the father of this child?" The fat man with big ears looked at Lu Shizhu He couldn't help but be a little surprised, as if he didn't expect that such a peasant family would have a man dressed so elegantly, and a glimmer of light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Are you blind? How old am I to give birth to such a big son? I am... a good friend of this family. If you have anything to say to me, it will be the same!"
< br>
Lu Shizhu originally wanted to have a chance encounter with him, but looking at him like this, he seemed unable to defeat him.
He glanced at his son again. The boy looked really miserable. His clothes were full of blood, two front teeth were missing, and there were bruises on his face.
At the moment, he coughed lightly and looked at Ping'er.
How could it be Ping'er who did it? This kid usually looks polite. Apart from working and reading every day, he rarely speaks a few words. He doesn't look like a kid who can beat people up like this.
At the moment, he looked at Ping'er beside him inquiringly.
Ping'er pursed her lips, secretly clenched her fists, and did not stop speaking.
“You’re not from this family, what’s the matter with you?”
But the man directly pushed Lu Shizhu away, put his hands on his hips and said loudly: “This kid said he was Dad, what's wrong? Is he a man? Is he lame or deaf? Now, don't hide in the house and pretend to be shy. What a turtle!”
In the room, Li Rong listened. His eyes grew colder, and he glanced at the little old man beside him: "Senior, can you help me and take me out?"
The little old man spread his hands: "No help."
As he said this, he stared at the expression on Li Rong's face as if he were watching a show.
"Hey, young master, I have such a bad temper! I have to show you what I am capable of!"
Outside, Lu Shizhu had already started fighting with the man. Who knew? In a matter of seconds, he was pushed to the ground by the man.
“Oh, that’s all you have? You little weakling, I’ve been in the military camp for seven years. If ten more of you come, I’ll still knock you down!”
“Let go. Open him.”
At this moment, a cool sound came from the window.
The man was stunned and sneered: "Oh, the turtle with its head can still talk? If you have the guts, don't hide in the house sneakily, come out!"
"I Say it again, let him go." Li Rong's voice became colder.
"Why don't I let go?"
The next second, a sound broke through the air.
The man's hand pressing Lu Shizhu was hit hard by something, and he let go of his hand in a daze.
"Hey! You're playing dirty tricks with me!"
The man was obviously irritated and immediately rushed forward.
But before he took two steps, his leg seemed to be tripped by something. With a bang, he fell to his knees on the ground, feeling extremely embarrassed for a moment.
As the man knelt down, the hand covering his other shoulder was trembling.
When he took his hand away, he realized that there was blood oozing out from where the shoulder was hit.
A trace of fear flashed in the man's eyes. He couldn't help but raise his head and look towards the window. The window of the room opened, revealing Li Rong's cold face.
The man was stunned when he saw that face.
How come this face...is familiar?
"Master, how are you? Ouch! It's bleeding!" The woman next to him suddenly cried and howled: "Ouch, it's really unreasonable, everyone, come and take a look! Their son will kill my son After being injured like this, another group of people are bullying our leader. We must kill them all.”
Li Rong rubbed his eyebrows, frowned at them through the window, and asked coldly: "What do you want?"
The woman wiped her tears fiercely, and pulled her son forward: " What are we going to do? You see my son was beaten by your son! "
Li Rong glanced at the young man. He was half a head taller than Ping'er and was also stronger. Two front teeth were indeed missing, there were some bruises on his face, and there was some blood on his clothes, but they didn't look like they belonged to him.
After a brief look, Li Rong knew something in his mind, and then looked at Li Junping who was standing beside him: "Ping'er, tell me, did you beat this person?"
"He was the one who beat me. He was like crazy and hit me with a brick!" The young boy suddenly stared and shouted, "He wants to kill me!" After saying this, he met Li Junping's gaze. He even shrank his neck in fear and hid behind his mother.
Li Rong finally set his sights on Li Junping: "Ping'er, answer me."
Li Junping pursed his lips and nodded: "I was the one who hit you. But it was him..."
"He admitted it! It was indeed you who beat my son into such a pitiful state, and he almost killed him!" He started shouting like he was winning a battle.
Li Rong rubbed his brows: "Since you admit it, go and kneel down as punishment."
Li Junping entered the room silently and knelt down facing the wall.
Li Rong looked at his son and frowned. This was not the first time Ping'er had beaten someone. Or when I was in Beijing earlier, someone would come to my door from time to time.
He once bit off half of the ear of the young master of the household minister. The eldest son of the uncle's family had his finger cut off by him. The youngest daughter of Duke Dingguo also had her teeth knocked out by him.
Li Rong was accustomed to such things, but he was somewhat handy. He only took out two taels of silver from his arms and threw them into the man's hand from a distance.
"This is all the money I can afford at the moment. You two can go and ask the gentleman to give you a good look. If the money is not enough, Li will bear it later."
The man saw the silver falling into his hand in a daze. At that time, his belly hurt from the throwing of the silver. Just looking at Li Rong's appearance, he looked a little suspicious and slightly undecided.
The woman's eyes lit up when she saw the silver. He immediately shouted: "It's just two taels of silver, why are you sending beggars? You can't even buy food for my son! I told you clearly that today's matter can't be solved without a hundred taels of silver! Hurry up and give me the money." , we will let you go, otherwise... I will make you walk around without food!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone watching the show was in an uproar.
“Oh my god, two taels of silver is not enough, but I want a hundred taels. Is this family crazy?”
“That’s right! Isn’t this a lion’s mouth? Who can take it? One hundred taels of silver?”
"The boy from the Li family is really a prodigal. He beat him up like this, and now he wants money. The eldest son of the Li family is still a cripple. The fat woman who is the only one who can make money in her family ran away with the man. Now it's over."
Li Rong frowned slightly. Speaking of which, in the past, this hundred taels of silver would not have been much. After all, the value of the apology to those Ping'er had beaten before was several times higher than this. Is it just now...
"I am short of money at this time, and I really can't come up with these hundred taels of silver. In this way, I will write you a note, and I will replenish you with the money in the future."
"Can't take it out?" The woman's eyes rolled: "If you can't take it out, then use the things you have at home to exchange for it!"
As soon as she entered the door, the woman looked at the house and yard. At this time, the purchase was a calculation in his eyes: "Since you have no money, the carriage at the door was given to us. I think your big pot is good, and I want to take it too. There is also a big cabinet in the house. , and moved it to me to pay for it.
You write me another receipt. When the one hundred taels of silver are returned, I will give you the receipt. "
Speaking like this, her eyes gleamed as she stared at the things in the yard.
Seeing Li Rong frowning and considering, Lu Shizhu jumped angrily: "You guys Why not grab it? Just bully him, a fool who doesn't know anything, right? Your son is as active as he is, so why do you need a hundred taels to treat him? He went to the medical clinic and couldn't even spend two taels of silver! "
"Who said that! My son’s teeth were knocked out and it will be difficult for him to get married in the future! Not to mention a hundred taels, you have to get a thousand taels! Today I will vacate all your homes, which is what I should do! "
Li Rong frowned: "Don't touch the things at home, they belong to my... madam. If, as my little friend said, you can't spend so much money to go to a medical clinic, then I can't give you these one hundred taels. ”
After hearing Li Rong's words, Lu Shizhu's anger dissipated a little: "You are not stupid enough!"
"Don't give it? If you don't give it to us, report it to the official!" The woman immediately put her hands on her hips: "I have heard that your family was exiled, and you are all guilty! You low-class people, you actually want to kill my son? My son is a good citizen! I just want to be punished in court, Mr. Guan It will definitely be a heavy punishment, but even if you low-class people go to prison, it will be light! You have to think about it, it won’t be a matter of one hundred taels of silver by then!”
Lv Shizhu looked at him secretly! Li Rong lowered his voice and said, "Could it be that she really took control of it?"
Lv Shizhu's family was also exiled. They knew that they would get nothing good by beating good people to the government office for their crimes. He ground his teeth in anger for a moment.
At the same time, Jiang Nuanzhi leisurely drove the donkey cart to the door of his house.
From a distance, she saw a large group of people surrounding her home.
"Hey? What's going on?"
She was wondering, and immediately jumped out of the donkey cart, frowning and looking around.
"Pangya Jiang, are you back?"
As she was looking forward intently, she suddenly heard a voice coming from the side, and she was startled.
Turning his head to the side, he saw Xie Liangchen appearing in front of him with a chicken coop on his head.
Jiang Nuanzhi's face was full of surprise, but he saw that his head was not only in the shape of a chicken coop, but also had dark circles under his eyes like those of a giant panda. His lips were also chapped and peeled, and he completely lost the handsome young man's appearance before.
"Second Master Xie, are you... fleeing?" (End of Chapter)
