Chapter 344 A Bitter Smile
Naturally, the neighbors were not happy about this, and a quarrel broke out between the two sides.
Li Shanglian relied on the confidence given to him by Li Zong and began to use his power to suppress others.
When the two families went to the government office to complain, Li Shanglian said, "My child is a guest of the Zhang family, the mother's family of the Third Prince."
In order for the Jingzhao Yin to maintain his position in the capital city where nobles roam everywhere, he must either be of high birth and dare to confront the powerful, or be slippery and not offend anyone.
The current Jingzhao Yin is a woman, and happens to be the latter.
The name of the Third Prince's mother's family still aroused some fear, and she immediately felt overwhelmed.
Li Shanglian was arrogant to begin with, and when he saw her retreat a little, he became even more arrogant.
He smiled at his neighbors and said, "I've already told you bunch of bastards not to mess with our family."
"Now that you have offended us, it is not just a matter of three feet of land. You have to pay me money. Otherwise, when my son becomes more successful, I will definitely not forget today's humiliation!"
Jing Zhao Yin: "....." We are not brothers, what are you ashamed of? Haven't you always been the one unilaterally humiliating others?
Jingzhao Yin realized that his train of thought had gone astray, so he shook his head and turned it back to face the current situation.
She tried to persuade him, "Mr. Li, this alley is for pedestrians to pass by."
"You took it without saying anything. It's already a bit too much, so don't try to intimidate others."
She still retained a bit of kindness and wanted to speak a fair word for the victim.
As a result, Li Shanglian attacked her directly: "What do you mean?"
"Want to be our enemy? Believe it or not, I will write a letter to my son and ask the Zhang family to remove your official position!"
Jingzhao Yin: "......"
To be honest, sometimes when the children of powerful people commit crimes, their elders will threaten them.
But we are all civilized people, all of us are weird and threatening.
It was the first time for her to face such a disrespectful idiot, but she really didn't want to go against the Zhang family.
Jingzhao Yin felt very aggrieved. In the past, when she was in other prefectures, even when she was a county magistrate, no one dared to yell at her during trials.
Being transferred back to the capital was said to be a step closer to the emperor and was considered a promotion, but who knows how much humiliation he actually suffered!
Damn it, I don't want to do this anymore! I might as well go back and get married.
When this thought came to his mind, Jingzhao Yin knew that he was being driven crazy by official duties.
She sorted out the resentment that occasionally emerged in her mind, wiped her face, and continued to maintain a sad smile.
Li Shanglian was even more proud. When his neighbors saw that even the Jingzhao Yin was afraid of the Zhang family he mentioned, they began to get scared.
At first they thought Li Shanglian was bragging. After all, if he really had such a strong background, how could he have fallen to the point of being squeezed in with ordinary people like them?
The result is really......
The neighbors are not pushovers, otherwise they would not have gone to the government just because their land was occupied.
He would not give in even when he had conflicts with Li Shanglian and others, which could be said to have offended them greatly.
The neighbors had already anticipated future retaliation, and the family looked at each other, seeing worry in each other's eyes.
An older woman whispered, "It's okay, I'll just go back and move."
It's easy to say, but it's hard to leave one's hometown. If it weren't really difficult, they would never be willing to leave their hometown.
A cloud of sorrow hung over them. At this moment, a bailiff came in and said something, and a strange look appeared on Jingzhao Yin's face.
The great son with a promising future that Li Shanglian mentioned has arrived.
Upon hearing the news, Li Shanglian and his wife were immediately overjoyed. If they had a tail, it would have flown up to the sky.
"My son must have known that his grandma was bullied, so he came back to support us."
Madam Li nodded and sighed, "It's true that raising this son was not in vain! He is so filial."
Everyone around was silent. Are you sure that someone is bullying you?
However, Li Zong was carried in.
He was drooling, his head tilted, his mouth wide open, and he was mumbling nonsense, laughing as he spoke.
He smiled and wanted to clap his hands, but unfortunately his arms were held.
Obviously a fool.
Originally, Bei Jingchu wanted to cripple him, but as soon as his arm was broken, Li Zong couldn't bear it anymore.
He said that as a scholar he would rather be killed than humiliated, and that breaking his arm would ruin the rest of his life.
He hit his head directly against a pillar, but he was not cruel enough, so he was not killed, but half-dead.
After being forcibly awakened, the person becomes like this.
The mentality is fragile enough.
When a bully commits a crime, he watches others struggle with great pleasure, using all kinds of tormenting tricks to torture others, but when it comes to himself, he cannot bear even a little bit of suffering.
She had Li Zong returned to Li Shanglian and his wife and stopped caring about the matter.
The subordinate who was assigned the task was a very smart one. When he heard that the arrangement from above was to return the man to Li Shanglian and his wife, he decided to hand him over to them.
When he sent the people back to Li's house, he found that they were not there. After asking around, he found out that they were at the government office, so he went straight to the government office.
Li Shanglian and his wife were dumbfounded when they saw Li Zong being sent back.
Jingzhao Yin was relatively kind-hearted. Seeing that the child had become a fool, he did not make any mockery even though he had just been humiliated.
But the neighbors who had just been bullied were not polite anymore.
Do whatever makes you happy right now.
"So this is the peerless genius you two were talking about. He is truly extraordinary."
