Chapter 308 Chapter 307 Let’s go, the lobby is a good place to cool off
Fengshan County Magistrate Lü Wuliang pouted his mustache, looked at the entrance of the government office with displeasure, and shouted angrily, "Who is making such a loud noise and looking for trouble?
Catch them and beat them with a stick, lock them up for ten days or half a month, so they will learn their lesson."
At a command from County Magistrate Lu, more than a dozen yamen runners rushed out of the yamen.
The four or five yamen runners who had just been pushed aside looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
They also understood that Mrs. Fang was a good person, but because of her long-term hard labor, her youth had faded and her beauty was no longer there, so she was despised by her heartless husband.
Because Mrs. Fang married him when he was poor, and since then she has been filial to her parents-in-law and friendly to her sister-in-law, she has always been well-known among the neighbors.
Her husband couldn't divorce her openly.
Recently I heard that the beautiful wife that man kept outside is pregnant and about to give birth, and she is clamoring to be his legal wife.
This man named Ma Dahe, upon learning that Magistrate Lu was a corrupt person, bribed him with money and falsely accused his wife of having an affair with a man.
He found a man from somewhere, broke into his wife's room in the middle of the night, and made himself a green hat.
But after all, they were just small yamen runners who usually relied on this job to support their families. What else could they do except follow orders? !
An Xin and her friends did not bring any guards with them this time, and Xiao Wenrou did not go out shopping with them because she did not want to see her.
The yamen runners rushed out and surrounded Feng Yuxiu, Shan Yongzhen, Chi Lan, Li Xin, Kunrui, Shen Wenxuan, and the fearless Gongsun Lanyue, who were beating up a few indecent yamen runners, and prepared to catch them and beat them with sticks.
Before they met their teacher An Xin, these people aspired to be playboys in the capital. Even Gongsun Lanyue was not a rule-abiding person because of the education of her mother, who came from a family of military generals.
Not only are these people arrogant in the capital, they were not good people in the past. They are definitely the rich second generation from official families.
Normally, they don't take the minor officials in the capital seriously, so how could they be afraid of these yamen runners at this time?
Feng Yuxiu raised his chin nonchalantly: "This is the first time in my life that I have been surrounded by so many yamen runners. This feeling is really fucking uncomfortable."
"Who isn't?" Shan Yongzhen stroked his chin and said coldly, "It seems that the territory under someone's jurisdiction is not very good. Such a thing actually happened."
At this time Feng Yuxiu and Chi Lan remembered that Fengshan County was under the jurisdiction of Wanzhou Prefecture, and Shan Yongzhen's father was the prefect of Wanzhou Prefecture.
However, Feng Yuxiu and others who knew something about the Shan family's situation did not respond to him. After all, they could see that their brother was not in a good mood at the moment.
When An Xin saw that the group of yamen runners were about to attack Feng Yuxiu and the others, he knew that it would be okay for six or seven of them to beat up those few yamen runners, but it would be a bit difficult for them to deal with a group of them.
So he raised his chin towards Liu Boxing and Chen Qibao who followed him.
The two understood immediately that Chen Qibao was once a person who, together with Yuchi Yi and others, was known as the Little Overlord of Beijing.
He was one step ahead of his senior brother Liu Boxing. He went up and knocked down two yamen runners without saying a word. His fighting posture was quite skilled.
Then the two teams started fighting each other.
An Xin saw Chi Lan, who was not as strong as the other man, with a stern face, grabbing the hair of a tall yamen runner, and holding on tightly as if she had a great grudge against him.
Shen Wenxuan, who was also a civil official and not as strong as others, hid behind others and secretly made the move.
There are also Kunrui and Chen Runze, who are constantly doing small movements like kicking the crotch and grabbing the neck.
An Xin held his forehead and said, "…" What kind of ghosts did she bring out here?
It’s okay, An Xin comforted himself, in a fight, no matter what kind of punch you use, winning is the most important thing.
At this time, the woman who had struggled to break free from the shackles of the yamen runners, with a shriveled body, a withered face, rough fingers, and a dishevelled appearance, helped her old mother who had fallen to the ground up with tears in her eyes.
The two of them came over tremblingly. After she let go of the old woman, she knelt in front of An Xin and said, "Thank you for your help, young lady. You should take your people away.
It is my bad luck to meet such a heartless husband and such an official who cannot distinguish right from wrong. If it really doesn’t work out, I will die at most, and I cannot let you be implicated because of my affairs.”
When the woman said this, a look of death flashed in her eyes, but when she heard the suppressed crying of her old mother behind her, her eyes revealed deep guilt, and she also fell to the ground and cried bitterly.
An Xin couldn't help but be moved when he saw the woman's miserable appearance, overwhelmed by the reality and unable to resist.
At this time, Magistrate Lu, who was sitting high up in the lobby, and the man who had sued his wife for cheating on him, finally made up their minds to walk out of the yamen lobby. When exposed to the scorching sun, they raised their hands to shield their eyes and glared at An Xin and the others with disgust.
Magistrate Lu saw the people fighting at the gate of the yamen and shouted angrily, "Rebellion, rebellion, openly attacking yamen runners at the gate of the yamen, I think you are up to no good."
An Xin nodded calmly, "Well, I don't want to think about it anymore."
At An Xin's signal, Feng Lingyun and Chen Runzhi walked over and helped the mother and daughter up.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
The woman wanted to say something, but when she saw Chen Runzhi shaking her head at her, she obediently walked aside.
After the yamen runner was beaten up by Liu Boxing and Chen Qibao, he lay on the ground wailing.
An Xin saw the few yamen runners who had released the woman earlier, and the yamen runners who were sneaking in, also lying on the ground pretending to be serious, and curled the corners of his mouth.
When County Magistrate Lu saw that all the bailiffs in the yamen had been knocked down, a look of surprise and fear flashed in his eyes, and he gave a hint to the bailiff who followed him out.
Then he sneered, and when he looked at An Xin and the others, his expression became complacent and arrogant, "You wait~"
"Okay! I'll wait." An Xin raised the corners of his lips and walked towards the lobby of Fengyang County: "The weather in the south is still quite hot at this time."
Feng Yuxiu wiped the sweat off his forehead with a bruised cheek. Seeing An Xin's actions, he grinned and shouted, "Teacher, you are so mean. You didn't even tell me that you were going to the lobby to enjoy the cool air."
So a group of people who didn't know what politeness was wiped the sweat from their heads and followed An Xin into the yamen.
County Magistrate Lu glared at Feng Yuxiu and the others from behind, "You...you guys..."
An Xin and his companions' behavior not only shocked Magistrate Lu and the unfaithful man Ma Dahe, but also the common people who came around to watch the fun.
At the same time, the people's eyes were filled with joy and contemplation. Those who knew each other whispered, "Who are these people? How dare they go to the county hall to hide from the sun and cool down."
Hearing this, County Magistrate Lu's heart skipped a beat. Yes, who on earth are these people? How dare they be so bold? However, when he thought about the fact that An Xin and the others were not dressed luxuriously, and even tended to dress neatly and casually, he felt that they were completely different from those wealthy people who went out with groups of servants.
County Magistrate Lu shook his head. He must have been overthinking it. How could such a noble person possibly come to such a remote and backward county town under his jurisdiction?
I'm afraid these people are just a group of poor wanderers who don't know their place and come from well-off families.
