Chapter 98 Chapter 98 Conflict
Shu Niannian's eyes suddenly widened. "He is on your blacklist for pest control this time."
Ye Jinhong murmured softly, "It wasn't there originally, but it's here now."
Shu Niannian looked at Ye Jinhong with appreciation. Good, this was a blatant revenge, she liked it!
Shu Niannian's eyebrows curved when she smiled, like a cat that had stolen some dried fish, cunning and cute.
Seeing Shu Niannian like this, Ye Jinhong felt like a cat was scratching his heart, and he just wanted to hug the person in front of him and hold her tightly.
But now is not the time to think about these things. Just as Shu Niannian and Ye Jinhong were talking in low voices, Wu Youde, with her big belly, had already come to the center of the yard. "Oh, a college entrance examination cheater actually has the nerve to make such a big scene and hold such a grand banquet? You really have no idea at all. If I were you, I would keep it quiet and not let anyone know to minimize the impact. Otherwise, once the truth is revealed, you will be so embarrassed!"
Wu Youde rolled his eyes in disdain, not disguising his suspicion that Shu Niannian had a low IQ and was vain.
Then, he turned to Wang Peng and Wang Fei, "What's wrong with you two? You sent out so many people but couldn't take away a cheating student? Are you guys just here to eat for free? What's the use of you? I want to see your resignation reports when I get back!"
Wu Youde raised his chin and said arrogantly.
Wang Peng bent down in front of Wu Youde, smiling apologetically, "You are right. It is true that Wang Fei and I are not good at our job. You arranged for us to go on this trip because you wanted to give us a chance to perform meritorious service. In the end, we couldn't even handle such a small matter. We deserve to die. When we return, we will be at your disposal. You can do whatever you say!"
Wang Peng's humble attitude of admitting his mistake pleased Wu Youde. In fact, he didn't really want Wang Peng to resign. This was just a way for him to control his subordinates.
Wang Peng's attitude softened a lot. "Tell me, who is so bold as to go against our Education Bureau?"
Wu Youde naturally saw the green jeep parked at the door. He guessed that the reason why Wang Peng and Wang Fei failed to take Shu Niannian away successfully was related to the owner of the jeep. He deliberately displayed his official pedigree in order to intimidate these peasants. They didn't even look at their own identities and how dare they go against him?
However, what he didn't know was that the owner of the green jeep was someone he couldn't afford to offend.
What he didn't expect was that Wang Peng actually set a trick for him.
Wang Peng only said that he encountered some obstacles and wanted to ask him to come and settle the situation, but he didn't say who he met!
If he knew that it was Ye Jinhong who was blocking the way here, he would never come here even if he was beaten to death!
He was not joking. Although he didn't know Ye Jinhong, he dreamed of the name Ye Jinhong every night, and they were all nightmares.
The imperial envoy holds the imperial sword, and he specifically strikes down corrupt officials like him who do nothing and oppress the people. Recently, he has turned down many drinking parties. Drinking parties mean money. With his current status, shouldn't he show his appreciation when someone invites him to drink?
He loved money so much that in order to avoid Ye Jinhong, he even stopped going to drinking parties. He planned to hide himself and stay there until Ye Jinhong left.
His idea was good and it almost succeeded. If Wang Peng hadn't called him today and caught him off guard and had an intimate contact with Ye Jinhong, Ye Jinhong's imperial sword would never have been able to hit him.
Who would have thought that the director of an education bureau, a civil servant, could be a corrupt official.
The two brothers Wang Peng and Wang Fei were not originally in the education system. Some time ago, they invited him to drink and gave him a can of tea, in which four large yellow croakers were wrapped.
Wu Youde’s eyes widened at that time. Four big yellow croakers!
If he only received a fixed salary, he would never be able to save enough to catch four large yellow croakers in his lifetime!
In order to get these four big yellow croakers, he decisively used his authority to transfer Wang Peng and Wang Fei to work under him.
Taking Shu Niannian, the cheating student, back to the Education Bureau for questioning was a good job that would easily bring him fame. Wang Peng secretly gave him two bottles of Moutai and took this job from him.
In fact, he could understand that the two brothers had just arrived, and the way they wanted to quickly gain popularity was to show their faces more often.
They were his people and were very sensible. He wanted to train them to become his right-hand men so that he could exercise great influence in the academic affairs system in the future. So he took advantage of the situation and gave this easy and honorable job to the brothers Wang Peng and Wang Fei. But he didn't expect these two people to be so useless that they couldn't even handle such a small thing!
Wang Peng bent down to wipe the sweat off his face. He pointed at Ye Jinhong and said, "He is Shu Niannian's fiancé, a military officer." He did not tell Wu Youde that Shu Niannian's fiancé was Ye Jinhong, and he did not want to play tricks on Wu Youde, but he did not want to be cannon fodder, so he could only ask Wu Youde to take over.
Let Wu Youde face Ye Jinhong's anger. At this moment, he just wants to be a coward.
Wu Youde looked at the ordinary jeep and then at Ye Jinhong in casual clothes, and concluded that he was just an ordinary soldier who liked to show off. This was because usually non-commissioned officers with military merits would wear military uniforms to their girlfriends' homes, not because the uniforms looked good, but to show off the stars on their shoulders to their girlfriends. Now this soldier came in casual clothes and drove a jeep whose rank was not obvious. It was obvious that he was just an opportunistic soldier. Well, he must have borrowed the car from the transport team! Tsk, he knew the psychology of these soldiers very well. Wu Youde snorted disdainfully and said arrogantly, "We received a report that Shu Niannian was suspected of cheating in the college entrance examination. Now we are taking her to the Education Bureau to cooperate with the investigation. What's wrong with you?" Wu Youde looked around and said angrily, "You dare to stop government officials from doing their work, do you all want to go to jail?!"
Common people were afraid of going to jail, and the peasants were trembling with fear. He used his official power and the trick of intimidating the peasants by attacking them, and it always worked. Usually, as long as he frowned and scolded them a few times, the peasants would be trembling with fear, and then someone would stand up with a panicked look on his face to apologize and explain. However, today, he showed off his official power, and a yard full of people were sitting quietly in their seats drinking tea and eating melon seeds, but no one stood up to defend his face!
Wu Youde's words fell to the ground with a "click". Wang Peng quickly explained, "Shu Niannian said that she got her college entrance examination results by herself, and today is the day of her graduation banquet. She felt that any misunderstandings could be clarified in person, and there was no need to go to the police station. After all, being taken away in front of relatives and friends would have a bad impact."
Wu Youde thought that Wang Peng was an understanding lackey under his command who would do things according to his wishes, but what happened to Wang Peng today?
How can I speak completely from Shu Niannian's perspective? Where has Wang Peng's usual cleverness gone?
Wu Youde glared at Wang Peng fiercely and shouted angrily, "What do you mean by bad influence?! If you want a good influence, don't cheat! Since you choose to cheat, you must bear the consequences! Is this how you do your job?! No wonder you asked me to come for such a small matter!"
Wang Peng's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He originally thought that this was just a trivial matter, but he did not expect Shu Niannian to resist, nor did he expect that the villagers of Shujia Village would protect Shu Niannian so much, and he did not expect that Shu Niannian's fiancé would actually be Ye Jinhong.
Just based on Ye Jinhong's relationship, no one of them can take Shu Niannian away today.
He saw it clearly, but he couldn't say it.
Wang Peng sighed silently, wiped his sweat and whispered, "You are right, I did not do my job well today, I will apologize to you later. I have a box of Pu'er tea that I have treasured for many years, I will send it to you later."
When mentioning tea, Wu Youde thought of the four large yellow croakers. When he thought of the large yellow croakers, Wu Youde's face instantly improved.
For the sake of the yellow croaker, Wu Youde forgave Wang Peng's stupidity.
Wu Youde then waved his hand behind him and said, "Someone, bring this girl called Shu Niannian back to the bureau. After we have investigated whether she got her college entrance examination score by cheating, we can release her!"
As soon as Wu Youde finished speaking, two people walked straight towards Shu Niannian. The two men in black uniforms were tall and looked strong. Shu Niannian was nothing in front of them. When Li Guifen, Shu Guodong and others saw the two men in black uniforms walking towards Shu Niannian, they also quickly stood up and walked towards Shu Niannian. However, the men in black uniforms were too fast. As soon as they stood up, the men in black uniforms had already strode in front of Shu Niannian. Seeing the men in black uniforms reaching out to grab Shu Niannian, Li Guifen screamed in fear. Everyone present gasped, and the timid ones even screamed in fear. At the moment when the men in black uniforms reached out their hands, the situation changed. Ye Jinhong stepped in front of Shu Niannian, and the next second, a pig-killing scream came from the yard, "Ahhh! It hurts!"
Ye Jinhong broke the wrist bone of the man in black uniform when he raised his hand. This sudden change scared Wu Youde so much that his face changed instantly. He looked at Wang Peng and asked him. Wang Peng looked cowardly, saying that he was not reliable now. In fact, if Wu Youde was smart enough, he would have noticed the clues by now. Someone like Wang Peng who knows how to scheme for personal gain would only become a coward when he meets a tough guy.
Furthermore, if Shu Niannian was really a girl who was easy to control, then Shu Niannian would definitely be in the Education Bureau now, instead of confronting him here.
However, Wu Youde has become arrogant over the years. He thinks that everyone should obey him. If they don't, they must be troublemakers.
Wu Youde had participated in movements in his early years, and he had his own methods to deal with disobedient and unruly citizens. Wu Youde looked at Ye Jinhong and Shu Niannian with fiery eyes. He had made up his mind that today, no matter what, he must make these two unruly citizens bow their heads, otherwise where would he put his face as the director of the Education Bureau? !
