Amo could naturally see the change in Achen's eyes, but she didn't interrupt.
After hearing these gossipy discussions, Achen wasn't angry. Instead, he smiled and looked at the man with the crooked mouth, asking, "Knowing so much, are you sure our future Miao King begged that teacher for forgiveness?"
"Of course, I saw it clearly!"
"If you lie, aren't you afraid I'll chop you up?"
“Young brother, your Miao people’s future Miao king is my elder brother’s student. My elder brother devoted himself to cultivating him back then.”
The man with the crooked mouth didn't seem to realize that what Mu Achen said was true.
Ah Chen put down his chopsticks and asked, "Cultivation? Painstaking effort? Did you make these up, or did your older brother say them?"
"Is this even a fabrication? Back then, your future Miao king even begged me for help. Alas... I was one of those who helped him. What a pity..."
After a moment of reflection, the man with the crooked mouth looked at the envious faces around him. His vanity was overflowing, so he continued, "Now, the future Miao King had Shengtang Company establish Miao Family Middle School, and the first thing he thought of was to invite my older brother to be the principal."
“But who is my elder brother? How could he be so arrogant just because he nurtured the future Miao King? That’s why he hasn’t even gone to Miao Middle School yet. Do you know why?”
Why?
"Yes, why?"
Faced with everyone's curiosity, the man with the crooked mouth couldn't hold back and continued arrogantly, "Of course, it's to avoid making things difficult for the future Miao King!"
"Tch, you're not kidding us, are you?"
"Exactly, after all this talk, we still don't know your older brother's name!"
The man with the crooked mouth said, "Listen up! My older brother's name is Zhang Xiang, and he's the head of the third-year junior high school group at the county's No. 1 Middle School."
"Hmm, I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before."
"Is this Zhang Xiang the same Zhang Xiang from No. 1 Middle School who caused such a stir a while ago?"
"Yes, yes, I remember a while ago there were rumors that he molested a girl in his class, but later no evidence was found and it was dropped. But that girl in his class jumped into the river and committed suicide."
"That's right! I heard that this guy surnamed Zhang was punished for this. So you, the one with the crooked mouth, are actually Zhang's brother. You must not be a good person either."
Now, the man with the crooked mouth was besieged by everyone's spittle.
Ah Chen listened to these words, but because he listened, his brows furrowed even more.
"Ah Chen..."
Amo asked Achen in a low voice, "Is what they said true?"
Ah Chen shook his head, then whispered a few words in Ah Mo's ear. Ah Mo nodded without changing her expression, then got up and went to the side to make a phone call.
A moment later, Amo returned and winked at Achen.
after---
Ah Chen asked everyone to be quiet for a moment, then said to the man with the crooked mouth, "After hearing what you just said, I'd like to visit this Teacher Zhang, but unfortunately I don't have time. So I can only send someone to invite him here, and let him personally confirm whether what you just said is true?"
"You?? You sent someone to invite my older brother? You...who are you? What do you want?"
"Let me prove that what you just said wasn't slandering my Miao family's future Miao King. Oh, by the way, I haven't had a chance to tell you yet, I'm also Zhang Xiang's student, from Class 32 of the 1989 cohort."
Upon hearing this, the man with the crooked mouth was first taken aback, then exclaimed in surprise, "You and the future Miao King are classmates?"
Ah Chen nodded, and immediately the atmosphere around them changed.
"Young prince, so you and the future Miao king are classmates? You must know each other."
"Young master, do you have the contact information for the future Miao king? I'll pay for it."
This woman actually took out ten yuan and handed it to Ah Chen.
Seeing this, Ah Chen smiled without saying a word, just staring at the man with the crooked mouth. Unexpectedly, the man with the crooked mouth took a few steps back and actually tried to escape.
But as soon as he turned around, he saw several strong Miao people with Miao knives at their waists standing at the entrance of the shop.
The man with the crooked mouth's expression changed.
The dozen or so diners in the restaurant also became uneasy.
Even if they knew that many genuine Miao people with Miao knives on their waists had appeared in the county town in the past two days, those genuine Miao people were there for their Miao students taking the college entrance examination, not to cause trouble.
But something seems a little off about this situation.
Therefore, everyone couldn't help but look at Mu Achen.
Mu Achen said, "Everyone, don't panic. Go back to your seats and witness what's about to happen."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Achen gestured to Akang, who had already come in, to pay the shop owner first and then bring over ten catties of rice wine.
A-Kang nodded calmly, while A-Bao stared at the man with the crooked mouth.
moment--
As Ah Chen drank, he whispered to Ah Mo. The man with the crooked mouth seemed to sense that this young Miao man in the shop was no ordinary person, so he quickly stepped forward and said:
"Young master, what I said just now was a joke, I was just talking nonsense, don't take it seriously. I apologize to you, can you let me go?"
Ah Chen turned his head to the side and said, "You were so confident just now, what's the rush? Sit down, when Zhang Xiang arrives, it will be a perfect opportunity to prove that you are the younger brother of the teacher of our Miao family's future Miao King!"
verify?
Does this setup look like a verification?
The man with the crooked mouth felt his heart race!
He's always been a braggart, so he probably never expected to be praising the person in question today, and even doing so with slanderous words.
After all, the fact that his elder brother is the future Miao King teacher is not a secret in the education circle, it's just not as people hear it.
While Ah Chen and Ah Mo were whispering to each other, one of the people who had been gossiping earlier suddenly started staring at Ah Chen and Ah Mo, seemingly having thought of something.
