Chapter 192: The Power of Power

"Because I don't want to keep you for dinner, are you so grudging?" Ah Xiu opened her mouth and said, since the two of them can talk nonsense with their eyes open, she can naturally do it too.

As soon as these words came out, the people present looked at Gao Xiucai and Liu Xiucai with very contemptuous eyes.

These two people are not well-known in Zhuangyuan Town, they are just ordinary two poor scholars.

But after this incident, it must be a little difficult for them not to become famous.

The most particular thing about this scholar is that he doesn't eat the food that comes to him, but they still go up to ask for it, what is the difference between this and asking for food!

These people are the most pretentious, and from now on, it is probably impossible for the two of them to make friends again, and they are ashamed to be with these two.

Ah Xiu himself didn't expect that the power of this sentence would be so great!

When the two of them heard Ah Xiu's words, their faces immediately turned red, their eyes widened like copper bells, and they were full of anger: "What nonsense are you talking about!" ”

They are readers, how can they care about these appetites.

"Is it nonsense, I have to ask yourselves, if you don't have this plan, why did you come to the door once when we first moved in, and once when we were cooking!" Ah Xiu said it very reasonably.

This kind of behavior is inherently weird, isn't it?!

Wang Chuan'er next to him never had a chance to interject, and when he heard Ah Xiu say this, he immediately agreed: "That's it, and they always look at our kitchen, this is not what else can they do if they want to rub rice, they can't just come up because Mama's cooking is delicious!" ”

Wang Chuan'er used more simple and straightforward words. Although those so-called readers listened to it with relish, they all looked like they couldn't bear to look at it directly.

As for Gao, Lin and the two Xiucai were already so angry that they couldn't speak, and their faces were even more red and white.

"It's really, it's really!" The mayor of the town didn't care about saying that women should not interject, pointed at Gao Xiucai and Lin Xiucai, and said with hatred: "It's really insulting!" ”

Just for the sake of these two goods, he just offended General Gu like this.

Mayor Zhang is now crying silently in his heart, and he only hopes to behave well now. Let them forget their previous mistakes for a while.

"Mayor Mare. You must call the shots for us! That Lin Xiucai suddenly wailed and threw himself forward, which was quite a bit like a broken jar.

He knew that the most important thing now was to let people not misunderstand them, otherwise his reputation would be gone. Not to mention the future.

This participates in the imperial examination. It's all about being recommended. If your reputation is bad, you will have no chance to take the imperial examination in your life!

"What kind of master, do you want to help you frame good people?" Mama Lu snorted coldly on the side. Fortunately, such a person does not have any official position, otherwise it would be the common people who are unlucky.

Although Mayor Zhang was dissatisfied with someone interfering on the side, but now that Gu Jingling was in charge, he had to try to smile and nod at Ah Xiu.

Then he said sharply: "What do you want me to call the shots, this arson must have nothing to do with General Gu, and you also say that you have no enemies, so didn't you make a mistake and accidentally walked out of the water, but it affected General Gu and his party!" ”

Ah Xiu heard this Mayor Zhang say this on the side, and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up in his heart.

This setting makes sense, and it makes perfect sense!

And with the character of those two people, it is very possible!

"My lord, this is really wronged, my brother and I are talking about the article at night, and we are in a hurry to pack up the books when we see the fire outside, but it's a pity that ......" Lin Xiucai glanced at Doctor Tang and Daddy Wine very sadly, if it weren't for the two of them, they wouldn't have been able to save a single book.

They didn't want to think that if it weren't for Dr. Tang and Daddy Wine, they would be with their precious books forever.

"No matter how important this book is, if you don't have it, you can buy it again, borrow it again, if this person doesn't have it, what else can you do!" Mayor Zhang said very bitterly, he thought that they were quite pitiful, his tone was much better, and his attitude was gentler.

He is a reader himself, so he naturally knows the pain of watching his beloved books be burned in front of him.

But at least if there are people, there is still a possibility of doing everything again!

"That's what the mayor said." The two of them are also quite knowledgeable about current affairs, and they lowered their heads, which can be regarded as soft.

Mayor Zhang nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Gu Jingling: "General Gu, these two people have now admitted their mistakes, I don't know ...... you."

He thought that these two people were also relatively unlucky, the house burned down, the books were gone, and it was strange to look pitiful.

"Mayor Zhang, what do you say?" Gu Jingling glanced at Mayor Zhang, and his attitude was much better than before.

"The grass people listen to you, general." Seeing that Gu Jingling's tone became softer, Mayor Zhang was slightly happy in his heart, so he hurriedly complimented: "The general is the most fair." ”

"Since Mayor Zhang, you have said so, then I will be fair, this slander of the imperial court officials, you should be beaten fifty boards, but for the sake of the two of you have meritorious fame, you don't need to take off your pants as an exception."

After Gu Jingling finished speaking, she shook her head regretfully: "I didn't want to worry too much, but what Mayor Zhang said is that this general should act fairly." ”

When Gao Xiucai and Lin Xiucai heard the fifty boards, their already pale faces were completely bloodless.

If these fifty boards go down, where will they still have their lives!

But when Gu Jingling said this, it seemed that it was all because of Mayor Zhang.

Ah Xiu couldn't help but laugh when he listened to it, he thought it well.

As for Mayor Zhang, hearing Gu Jingling say this, his face became very ugly.

As the mayor of this champion town, although he doesn't have any big achievements on weekdays, he still has to protect the people in this town a little.

And this Gao Xiucai and Lin Xiucai are not people who moved in from outside or lived here temporarily.

The Gao family and the Lin family were also glorious back then.

When Gu Jingling said this, didn't he fall into unkindness and injustice?

After that, how can he manage this town?

I'm afraid that if I walk on the road, I will be thrown stones.

Mayor Zhang trembled, and couldn't help but beg for mercy: "General Gu, this, this Gao Xiucai and Lin Xiucai are just two weak scholars, they really can't stand these fifty boards, you have a lot of adults, spare them." ”

"But, isn't this Mayor Zhang, you asking me to do business?" Gu Jingling deliberately pretended to be stupid and said: "I originally thought that these two people would realize their mistakes, so I planned to write them off like this, after all, I have never liked to care about these little things." ”

When Ah Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but complain behind his back, this Gu Jingling is actually small-minded, and he has been concerned about her three taels of silver for a long time!

This Gu Jingling is much more naΓ―ve than he shows.

"I ......" Mayor Zhang heard Gu Jingling say this, and he had no idea for a while, this was indeed said by himself, but he just said it as a compliment.

Where would he have expected that he would really just follow his own words.

Mayor Zhang is also suffering now, and he can't say it!

"It's all my fault, General Gu, you'll do it, you can ......" Mayor Zhang couldn't say anything later, and if he continued to say it, the sin would be all on him.

Although he wanted to help them, he didn't have the heart to take the blame himself.

"Alas, for the sake of Mayor Zhang's plea, I'm not too hard-hearted, these fifty boards will be reduced to thirty boards." Gu Jingling seemed to have taken a step back generously.

He didn't plan to really beat them fifty boards, it would really kill them.

Although their character is very bad, it has not reached the point of killing them.

These 30 boards, as long as they know a little bit of proportion, they can naturally be honest for a while, and they will not leave a more serious root cause.

As for gaining fame, he doesn't think that such a person is suitable to be an official!

"Much, thank you General Gu." Although Mayor Zhang thinks that these 30 boards are also very scary, compared with the previous 50 boards, they are already a lot better.

He looked at Gu Jingling's face, and he also knew that he couldn't be too aggressive, lest he be unhappy at that time.

"Since Mayor Zhang also agreed, then I will execute on the spot, so that everyone present can know that words cannot be said casually." After Gu Jingling finished speaking, she put her fingers to her mouth and blew lightly.

But in an instant, two men in strong suits immediately appeared.

Gu Shijiu saw the two of them, his face was a little excited, it was the second brother and the seventh brother!

"Gu Er, Gu Qi, these two will be handed over to you." Gu Jingling didn't forget to add a sentence later: "These two are both scholars, you have to be a little measured!" ”

"Yes." Gu Er and Gu Xiaoqi responded in unison, but the corners of their mouths pursed slightly, which seemed very meaningful.

When Gao Xiucai and Lin Xiucai heard that these thirty boards were inevitable, they immediately collapsed on the ground, and their faces were gray.

It's just that they at least know how to save some last dignity, although their hearts tremble, but they are not too out of shape, and they do not shout.

This allows others to maintain the last shred of respect for them.

Gu Eryi picked up Lin Xiucai and took the lead in going out, while Gu Xiaoqi squeezed his eyebrows at Gu Shijiu, who was standing aside, and then picked up Gao Xiucai and flashed out.

After a while, I heard a ghost crying wolf outside.

After all, they are just scholars, where have they suffered such a sin, they can grit their teeth and endure it at the first time, but later, they only feel that their buttocks are about to crack, where can they still bear it!

And the people who listened in the room, especially Mayor Zhang, had a very solemn face, even the others, and now they don't have the heart to laugh.

They used to be pretentious, but now the facts tell them that their rights are more important than they think they are to study, or to be high.

At least at that moment, they were all greatly shocked in the depths of their hearts! (To be continued......)
