Jinghong Tower

At this time, the He family was already in chaos.

When the old lady returned to the house, she called her two sons, Mr. He Er and Mr. He San.

The old lady covered her heart, heartbroken.

That evil woman, Mrs. Yan, made her lose face in front of her relatives!
Hearing that the Yan family had withdrawn more than 800 taels of silver from Jinghong Tower, so that Jinghong Tower could not close its doors despite its turnover, Master He Er and Master He were both shocked.

"Go to Yan's house to ask for money, that evil woman, she moved all the money to her parents' house!"

After the old lady gave an order, Mr. He Er and Mr. He San went to Yan Ji's pen and ink shop in a furious manner.

After the clerk from Jinghong Tower left, Mrs. Yan counted the silver again. To be honest, although she could take out 2000 taels of silver at once, those were just banknotes. With so much white cash, Mrs. Yan also couldn't First time seeing it.

The fineness of these silvers is very good. The more Yan looks at them, the more satisfied he becomes. Unfortunately, there are only more than 800 taels. It would be nice if there were more.

The Bi Mo Shop is now managed by Yan's younger brother, and Uncle Yan occasionally lives in the shop. Therefore, he has a bedroom in the shop, which is usually locked and only he can enter and exit.

Yan hid the box of silver under the bed in the bedroom and told Uncle Yan to take good care of it and deliver it to the bank account tomorrow to exchange for banknotes.

Looking at the time, Yan decided to return home.

She had just walked out of the pen and ink shop with Shihong when she bumped into someone from the He family.

"Why are you here?" Although Yan had already prepared herself mentally, she still felt a little guilty when she saw the second master and the third master appearing together.

"Sister-in-law, our family lost money, and we are here to find it." Master He San smiled. He was the recognized smiling tiger of the He family.

"Third brother, what are you talking about? You can go anywhere to find money. What do you mean by coming here?"

Having said that, it would be false to say that Yan didn't have a guilty conscience.

This is often the case. Before doing something, I have already found countless reasons for myself. Even when I do it, I feel that I am righteous. However, now that someone else comes to find me, I suddenly find that those reasons and confidence before are not the same. All of them are of no use.

Mr. He San sneered and said to the servant beside him: "Go and report to the official and ask someone from the county government to come and see with your own eyes where the money lost by our He family is hidden!"

The servant turned around to leave, Yan's eyes widened. Uncle Yan heard the sound and came out. Seeing the menacing He family, Uncle Yan immediately became anxious and shouted loudly: "He, you bullies don't even look at me." Look what kind of place this is, come here and beat these bastards out!"

The guys picked up their brooms and poles and rushed towards the He family.

Who in the family doesn't show weakness and carries a broom?It's embarrassing. The servants of the He family came with white wax sticks. Beat him!The reason why Yan Ji's pen and ink shop was opened on Guangsheng Street was because there was a government school here. In addition to the government school, there were also two schools that only accepted Mongolian children.

Only a small part of the students in the Fu Xue are from the local area, and more are from other counties. The Fu Xue has dormitories for foreign students. Although there is also a canteen, the students prefer to eat out. Therefore, Guangsheng In addition to pen and ink shops, there are many snack shops on the street.

Although the county school and the state school are not here, young people all like to hang out together. Therefore, some students from the county school and the state school will come all the way to Guangsheng Street to eat and look for fellow villagers and former classmates.

It was dinner time, and almost all the snack shops were full of students. Someone shouted: "There's a fight outside, come out and watch!"

Some students ran out with steamed buns and some even rice bowls. The food shop owners followed behind, shouting in vain: "Be careful, don't break the bowls!"

So, when the servants of the He family rushed over with the county government servants, fighting was already raging on Guangsheng Street. He and Yan's families were fighting together. The students who were watching the excitement didn't know why, but they also started fighting. It's nothing more than your noodle soup spilled on me, I kicked you, and you slapped my face with minced meat.

Several government officials came over to break up the fight, and two more government officials ran back to ask for support. The final result was that all the Zhending County government officials were dispatched, and even the magistrate who was having dinner came together. There is a government school here, but there is no government school. It is under his control, but everything outside the Fu School is under his control. If anything happens to the students of the Fu School, the responsibility lies entirely on him.

There is no way, who allows Zhending County Government to be in Zhending Mansion.

What makes the magistrate even more annoyed is that not all the students in these government schools are ordinary people. There are a few officials' children among them, their grandfathers, fathers, uncles, and even third- and fourth-rank court officials!
It’s not like there’s no school in the capital. What kind of books can you get by coming to Zhending Mansion?
The magistrate first asked people to find those naughty children. It didn't matter. One of them had a skull open, and another had a bruised nose and face, and two of his front teeth were missing.

The legs of the magistrate are weak. Those students who should be sent to the hospital should be sent to the hospital. Those who should be sent to the government school to be punished should be sent back. As for the He Yan family who are the culprits, stop talking nonsense and take them all to the Yamen!

Mr. He was not in Zhending, and he didn't know that such a big thing happened at home less than a day after he left.

Not only the second and third masters, but also Yan spent a night in the county jail.

Early the next morning, the second wife got the news and ran to find the old lady. As a result, Zhao’s mother said that the old lady was angry and had not slept all night. She had just gone to bed at dawn. The second wife did not dare to disturb her, so she had to call the third wife. As soon as the people discussed it, they first sent the steward to the Yamen.

The magistrate was still angry. He had just learned that someone from Fu Xue had gone to the magistrate to file a black record against him, saying that what happened last night was all because of his poor management and that the responsibility was all on him and had nothing to do with Fu Xue. After all, this incident did not happen in the government school. As for the students who were fighting, those were children. What do children know? They were all innocently implicated.

The county magistrate was so angry that he heard that the He family had sent people here. The magistrate sneered and said to the master: "They still dare to come? This matter happened because of their He family. The Yan family is the in-laws of the He family. They are originally It's just a family. Let's go and do some statistics. See the total medical expenses, recuperation money, and losses of those shops for all the students. All of them will be borne by the He Yan family. The four principal culprits will each be fined 100 taels of silver. , the servants and clerks of the two families are all accomplices, each of the accomplices is ten taels, the fine and compensation will be sent over, and then the matter of releasing the person will be brought up!"

This doesn’t even take into account the money that the magistrate went to collect from above. It’s really an advantage for them!

The master quickly calculated an amount. The medical expenses and recuperation money, together with the store's compensation, totaled 800 taels.

The fine of silver for He Yan and his family totaled 600 taels.

The total is 400 taels! (End of chapter)
