The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

 Chapter 888 Brutal Yan Yan (2)

This person is none other than Du Wencai’s father, Du Lezi. Because he has a good eye but a low skill, he is lazy and hangs around in the streets all day long, does not do anything practical, and likes to take advantage of others. The neighbors look down on him and simply give him the nickname "Leggy". As time goes by, this nickname spreads, and his The name has also been forgotten.

Mrs. Liu was so angry that she turned blue. When she thought that she had found such a shameless family for her daughter, she felt sick and wanted to pick up a broom and blow them all out.

Resisting the urge to curse, she stopped Liu Tinglan, who was about to come forward to argue, and said coldly: "You know very well why your family and I want to break off the engagement! If you want to make a fuss, just make a fuss with all your strength, I will." Look, your Du family is so shameless and intends to blackmail my Liu family. If word spreads about this, I will see if your good son still has a good future."

In Dachu, taking the imperial examination route to enter the officialdom depends not only on talent, but also on reputation. People with bad conduct usually do not have a good reputation, and it is not uncommon for them to lose their reputation for this.

Just like the Tanhua Lang who slipped and fell into the river three years ago after drinking and drowned. His abnormal body shape caused unrest in the inner house, and he was rejected by the superior, which led to his dissatisfaction in the officialdom. In the end, he committed suicide. Even if he doesn't die, his career will come to an end.

Du Lezi was counting on his youngest son to be named in the annual gold medal list so that he could enjoy the good life and have fun with him. Seeing Mrs. Liu using this to threaten him, he immediately cursed: "You stinky bitch, how dare you curse my son? Do you really think I don't dare to beat him?" you?"

Mrs. Liu looked at Du Leizi with disdain, as if looking at a rat in the gutter: "If you dare to do something, you can make others look at you. If you are not afraid of going to jail, just beat him, but you are afraid that your good son will be beaten by you." Even if I get involved, I won’t be able to gain the reputation of being a scholar.”

Du Leizi was furious at Mrs. Liu's contemptuous look. He rushed up and was about to take action. He didn't know what he thought of, but he put it down again and said viciously: "Humph, do you think I will do it myself? I know so many brothers, so casually Just a few of them will make your Liu family's house restless. If you, mother-in-law, don't come up with a thousand taels of silver today, I will show you now."

Du Leizi has been idle for decades and has no other skills. He knows a lot of gangsters. Although those gangsters don't have great skills, they are very good at causing troubles and fighting. It's just that these people are cunning and it's difficult for the government to catch them. Even if they are caught, they will be beaten and locked up for a few days before being released. They will be locked up forever, and the government will have to waste a lot of rice to feed them.

Of course, these scoundrels would not dare to do anything to a powerful and powerful family, but the Liu family can only be regarded as ordinary. They come to harass them at night and spread some rumors that slander the Liu family in the streets during the day. Not easily noticed.

 “How dare you, surnamed Du!”

 After hearing what Du Leizi said, Mrs. Liu was really afraid. She was not afraid of anything else, but she was worried that these gangsters would spread random rumors and spread them to the ears of the Shen family. The three members of the Shen family are still in the capital and plan to go back after the wedding ceremony. It would be the most fatal thing if the Shen family misunderstood and a good marriage was ruined.

Otherwise, she just let this family in shamelessly, because she was afraid that they would make noise outside and make the neighbors laugh, and the Shen family would also be implicated.

Seeing the scruples in Madam Liu's eyes, Du Leizi smiled proudly, threw a peanut into his mouth, and bit it hard: "Madam is a smart person, why bother arguing with unskilled people like us? Your Liu family has a great business. It’s not like I can’t get the one thousand taels of silver out, so I’ll use it as charity to accumulate merit for poor people like us. I, Du Leizi, promise that as long as I have these one thousand taels, I will never cause trouble to your Liu family again in the future.”
