Chapter 219 What a mess!



"Come here, carry all the bodies down and clean them up quickly. Go and tell the Wang family to come and collect the bodies!"

The county magistrate rubbed his aching temple and realized that this was the only arrangement for the time being.

Thinking about what the Wang family would say when they came, he wished time could go back. If he had known this would happen, he would have pretended to be sick and not gone to court today!

Old Master Tai, Third Master Tai and others quickly took the opportunity to say goodbye, and did not mention the fifty taels of silver that the Wang family wanted to pay as compensation.

The Wang family has become like this, with both father and son dead. Even the biggest grudges have been wiped out.

The county magistrate looked at the two old men with mixed feelings.

Although the Wang father and son were killed by the He family, the cause was that the Wang family boy had abducted a woman and had a grudge against them, but...without the Tai family's complaint, County Magistrate Wang and his son could not be gathered in the court, and the He family found an opportunity to kill them.

If we blame the Tai family, that's not fair. After all, the Wang family kid went to rob the Tai family's workshop first...

What a mess!

The county magistrate waved his hand, indicating that the Tai family could leave.

Old Master Tai and Third Master Tai immediately ran away with the villagers.

The carriages on the left and right belong to the Wang family, and the servants tied behind the carriages also belong to the Wang family. Whether it is lost or not has nothing to do with them.

If I don’t leave now, am I waiting for the Wang family to come and vent their anger on me?

County Magistrate Wang was also a lustful man. In addition to his wife, he also had seven or eight concubines at home.

But his wife had a hot temper. She could sleep with concubines but was determined not to have children.

Therefore, County Magistrate Wang had only two daughters and one son. His daughters were married before, and now the only son left was Wang Zejia, who was really spoiled and stupid and arrogant.

Mrs. Wang had been at home, instructing her maid to prepare dinner. Although she knew that her son had gotten into trouble again and her husband had gone to the yamen to resolve the matter, she did not take it seriously.

If it were somewhere else, she would still have to worry about something, but in Tai'an County, no one dared to disrespect the Wang family.

Of course, the husband will definitely be angry because his son is a failure.

It’s a pity that he only has this one son. If he gets angry again, he can beat his son to death!

Mrs. Wang had a good idea in her mind and waited patiently, but she never expected that she would receive the news that her husband and son had gone to meet the King of Hell together.

She was stunned for a moment and then fainted. After being rescued with great difficulty, she was rushed to the yamen with a bruise on her philtrum.

County Magistrate Wang and his son had been lifted onto the door panel and even simply wiped the blood off their bodies.

But the two men died in such a tragic way that the blood flowed like a river and no amount of wiping it off would help.

So, when Mrs. Wang arrived, she saw two bloody men, especially Young Master Wang, whose neck had been cut and his entire head looked like a blood gourd!

Mrs. Wang rushed over and hugged her son, crying miserably!

"Woo woo, son! Son! Don't scare me, hurry up and get up and talk! I'm coming, I'm coming!"

How can a dead person speak? So, Mrs. Wang was left to perform a one-man show.

There were many people standing outside the yamen in the distance, all afraid of being contaminated by bad luck, but reluctant to miss this exciting event.

At this moment, everyone heard Madam Wang crying and talking in low voices.

"Mrs. Wang is so pitiful. She has lost both her husband and son. What will she do in the future?"

"Yes, the Wang family only has this one son, and he hasn't even gotten married and had children yet, so the family line is cut off!"

This is sympathy for the Wang family. They are not concerned about their own affairs and are worried about the Wang family's incense.

There were also those who gloated over the misfortune and joined in, "That's not necessarily true. Young Master Wang must have slept with many decent women outside, otherwise he wouldn't have died today. What if one of the women was pregnant with his child? Then the Wang family's bloodline will continue!"

Everyone laughed as they listened, with strange expressions on their faces.

The Wang family probably doesn't want to admit that their son raped a woman, but after hearing this, they will probably hold on to their last hope and search everywhere for the victimized women.

Of course, more people are sensible because the Wang family incident serves as a warning.

"Spoiling a child is like killing him. Children must be taught well. Otherwise, let alone bringing honor to the family, it would be a blessing if they don't bring disaster to the family."

"Yes, if you give birth but don't teach, it's better not to have children at all!"

"The Wang family is an example. They're probably regretting it now."

Mrs. Wang cried so much that she fainted several times, and finally waited for her eldest daughter and son-in-law to rush back from outside the city.

The eldest son-in-law was a shrewd man. He asked the county magistrate what had happened, but he was helpless.

Even if they wanted to take revenge, they couldn't because members of the He family committed suicide by taking poison.

Finally, the bodies of County Magistrate Wang and his son were transported back to the Wang family, and a mourning shed was set up for the funeral.

If County Magistrate Wang were still alive, everyone in Tai'an County would give him some respect. Even a powerful person wouldn't want to mess with a local tyrant like him!

But now, the Wang family is almost wiped out because of the trouble caused by Wang's son bullying men and women. People who value their reputation are unwilling to be involved.

After all, people are two-faced. If you go to the Wang family to pay your respects, someone might say something joking.

"Oh, their two families get along very well. Could it be that their sons all share the same hobby of bullying boys and girls?"

Isn't this the end? It takes half a lifetime to build a good reputation, but it's easy to ruin it!

No one wants to take this risk!

Therefore, when people visited each other on weekdays, they would send a steward to kowtow as a formality.

Those who don’t usually go out would rather take a detour of seven or eight miles and not even want to pass by the Wang family’s door.

The Wang family found a doctor to give Mrs. Wang acupuncture and medicine. Mrs. Wang was worried about her husband and son's funeral, so she struggled to go to the front. However, when she saw the deserted mourning shed, she was furious.

"Where are the people? Where have they gone? Why hasn't anyone come to pay their respects?"
