Chapter 875 Hong Dalang and his four companions were beaten, Sun Shan was inexplicably excited and w
Hong Dalang and Hong Erlang held their heads high, walked without caring about their relatives, and returned home with a swagger.
Then he rolled his eyes around and looked around, and saw that they were all family members.
Hong Dalang whispered, "Ashan, come and see how much my old rival has bought."
I am not interested in other benefits, but I must take a look at this old rival.
Hong Erlang also said anxiously: "Ashan, open it and take a look. Hum, today we finally stepped on him and put him in the mud."
Hong Chengcai patted his big belly and said with a smile: "That's right, look at his face, it's as black as a piece of charcoal, hahaha, he deserves it, because he used to show off in front of us."
The second brother Hong echoed, "That's right. Last time, his daughter just married a man who worked as a police chief in the government office and sang everywhere. Pah, what's so great about a petty official? Compared with our master who has achieved the imperial examination, he is not even as good as a finger."
Hong Dalang took a sip of tea and said proudly, "That's right, there's no way you can fight with us~ I have a Jinshi master in my family, does he have one? Pah~"
Hong Erlang waved his hands and said, "Brother, our master who was a Jinshi is now the county magistrate. Haha, we are an official family."
So, Hong Erlang rounded himself up and classified himself as an official.
Hong Chengcai hugged Sun Shan's neck and said happily, "Ashan, today it's all thanks to you. You made us proud. Hahaha."
Brother Hong hugged Sun Shan's other side and said, "That's right. With Ah Shan here, our identities are different."
Sun Shan: ...
The Hong family is so arrogant. I really want to talk some truth to them and tell them to be less arrogant.
Although he was well-known, had status and power in Zhangzhou Prefecture, he also knew many officials.
But you can't use his name to talk about it everywhere.
Sun Shan then said, "Uncle, the Master often told me that I should be low-key in my life and work. It's enough to be in the limelight today, but don't be like this in the past. Otherwise, if the Master hears about it, not only will I be scolded, but you will also be beaten."
Then he pretended to be worried and said, "Uncle, will the teacher know about what happened today? I don't want to become a Jinshi and still be scolded by the teacher."
Sun Shan thought that when he returned to Huangyang County, he would tell Mr. Hong what happened today and let Mr. Hong take care of the Hong family.
Given the way Mr. Hong behaved, he might have immediately rushed to Zhangzhou Prefecture and beat up Hong Dalang and the other three after hearing what happened.
Oh, he had seen Mr. Hong beating people with his own eyes, so sometimes not only the Hong family was afraid of Mr. Hong, but Sun Shan was also a little afraid.
Mr. Hong is a man who cares the most about his reputation. If he knew that Hong Dalang was taking Sun Shan to show off everywhere and offending people, not only ruining the reputation of the Hong family, but also Sun Shan's reputation, he would definitely be furious and would come over to beat him up.
Tsk tsk~ Thinking about the time when Hong Dalang and his three companions would be beaten up soon, Sun Shan felt inexplicably excited and wanted to watch the show.
After Sun Shan said this, the expressions of Hong Dalang and the other three changed.
The second brother Hong said in panic, "Dad, Uncle, what should we do? Ah Shan is right. Grandpa hates us bullying others the most. You used Grandpa's name to bully others, and when Grandpa found out, he beat you up so hard that the stick as thick as his arm was almost broken. Damn it~ I was there just now, too. Oh, if I had known, I wouldn't have followed Uncle and Dad to show off everywhere."
Hong Chengcai said nervously, "Second brother is right. I still remember clearly the scene when Grandpa beat my father and second uncle. What should we do? If Grandpa finds out, he will definitely beat us to death."
Hong Chengcai hid behind Sun Shan, trembling, and said tremblingly: "Ashan, you must help us speak well, my grandfather likes you the most."
Sun Shan shook his head repeatedly and said innocently, "Brother Chengcai, don't you know the Master well? If I speak up for you, he will not only beat you, but also scold me. No, I can't speak. If I open my mouth, I will suffer."
Hong Chengcai and Hong Erdi: ...
I never thought that Sun Shan would be such a person. He watched his brothers suffer and remained indifferent.
What a heartless Mr. Sun.
Hong Dalang was older, so he didn't panic like the younger ones. He pretended to be calm and said, "Don't be nervous. We are in Zhangzhou Prefecture, not Huangyang County. How would your grandfather know? If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who will know?"
Sun Shan wanted to say to Hong Dalang: "I'll tell you! I'll tell you! Mr. Hong will definitely know."
Hong Erlang also comforted everyone: "That's right. Your grandfather won't know about what happened far away in Zhangzhou Prefecture."
After a pause, he continued, "Even if you know, don't be afraid. Your grandfather is old and can't beat him anymore. Even if he does, it won't hurt much."
Sun Shan jumped out, shook his head and said, "Second uncle, you are wrong. The Master must be in a good mood when he knows that I have passed the imperial examination. When you are in a good mood, you will eat more. When you eat more, you will have more strength. The Master is still strong and ruddy at his age. He may have more strength than any of us here."
After hearing this, the four fat men of the Hong family looked as pale as death.
Ashan is right. Grandpa/Dad is indeed moving in the direction that Ashan said.
All the letters sent to Zhangzhou Prefecture revealed that he could live for several more decades and teach more Jinshi.
Not long ago, fellow villagers from Huangyang County said that grandpa/father walked as steadily as Mount Tai, his voice was as loud as a bell, his face was ruddy, he looked vigorous and powerful, and he was still strong and healthy.
It is said that his physical strength is better than Hong Dalang and Hong Erlang.
Sun Shan continued to exaggerate: "Uncle, if the Master hits me with a stick, I might lose half my life."
This scared the four members of the Hong family, but Hong Dalang still pretended to be calm and said, "It's okay. Zhangzhou Prefecture is so far away from Huangyang County, the news won't get back."
Hong Erlang consoled himself by saying, "Brother is right. From today onwards, let's not mention what happened today anymore. We should keep a low profile, keep a low profile, and keep a low profile again. Soon the neighbors will forget what happened today."
So the four members of the Hong family stayed at home trembling with fear, not daring to wander around, for fear that they would be unable to resist showing off if they stepped out.
If you show off too much, you will always be caught and the news will reach Hong Xiucai's ears.
There are also many fellow villagers from Huangyang County making a living in Zhangzhou Prefecture.
Hong Xiucai is also the gold medal lecturer of Huangyang County and a first-class celebrity in Huangyang County.
Whatever they did in Zhangzhou Prefecture might be reported back to the capital. So they had to handle it calmly and keep silent.
Sun Shan secretly laughed at the four cowardly fat men of the Hong family.
He looked at the sky, took a piece of silk cloth, and brought a box of snacks prepared by Mrs. Hong to visit the Li family.
The Li family was particularly enthusiastic about Sun Shan's arrival.
The entire Li family came out to welcome them.
Sun Shan looked at his small gift and felt a little embarrassed.
Li's father is a ninth-rank prison warden, and it seems that he is training Li Xinyun's elder brother to take over.
Sun Shan and the Li family chatted about this and that, and the topic they talked about the most was Sun Shan's experience of "going to Beijing to take the imperial examination", which everyone was very interested in.
Seeing Li's father, he thought of the "child trafficking case" again, but Sun Shan chose to keep silent about it. It is better not to know some things.
After a round of toasts and conversation, Sun Shan left with a great deal of satisfaction.
Unexpectedly, after coming to Zhangzhou Prefecture, Sun Shan would unintentionally or unintentionally embark on the path of "extortion".
With a full pocket, it’s a great way to make a fortune.
