Chapter 285 Challenging the Luo Family in the Street
Passersby gasped when they heard Wenwen's words.
Medicine King Valley holds a high position in the hearts of the people of Zhongzhao Kingdom. This is because since the beginning of Zhongzhao Kingdom, the country has experienced many plagues, both large and small. The major families of Medicine King Valley have devoted their manpower and efforts to helping the people. Moreover, these families, led by the Hao family, have never oppressed the people. Therefore, Medicine King Valley has a very good reputation among the people.
Most importantly, even the imperial court dared not disrespect the Medicine King Valley.
Therefore, upon hearing the name of Medicine King Valley, passersby all paid close attention to Wenwen, and at the same time, they felt even more regret and sorrow for the fact that she had been chased and beaten by the man in blue.
"That damned bastard even dared to hit the Hao family kids from Medicine King Valley."
"Hmph, the Luo family doesn't beat anyone, they're practically sitting in the main hall and issuing orders."
"Shh, are you out of your mind? You dare to make fun of the Luo family."
"What am I afraid of? I'm testifying for the Hao family."
"That makes sense. How did the Hao family get involved with the Ren family?"
How did the Hao family get involved with the Ren family?
This is also the question that Luo Meijiao and Luo Yingpei wanted to ask.
The two sisters stared wide-eyed, looking utterly incredulous.
Can anyone tell these two sisters how to deal with offending the Hao family?
Leaving aside the common people and the imperial court, they just couldn't get past the hurdle of their own families.
Their elders repeatedly warned them that no matter who they offended outside, they should never offend the people of Medicine King Valley, especially the Hao family of Medicine King Valley.
Oh no! How can they salvage this situation? They're desperately seeking help from the audience!
Luo Meijiao and Luo Yingpei exchanged a glance and hesitantly approached Wenwen.
One wept, a sight to behold; the other feigned indignation, feigning grief.
"Young Master Hao, I apologize on behalf of my cousin. Please be merciful and let my cousin go."
"Yes, young master Hao, I was truly blind to your greatness. Please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me..."
Wenwen was very impatient. "What are you looking at?"
Luo Yingpei blinked shyly, feigning modesty: "For the sake of our acquaintance..."
Oh dear, I have no appetite today. I'll have to starve myself for forty-nine days to escape this nightmare.
Wenwen immediately took three steps back. "Give me a break! Your mouth stinks. Did you just come out of a cesspool? You reek of rotten fish and shrimp. Who are you trying to disgust? Get lost."
This is the first time someone has insulted the Luo family in public like this, and it was Consort Luo's own sister.
Unable to bear the ridicule, Luo Yingpei covered her face, turned away, pushed aside the people blocking her way, and fled the scene.
"Hey, little sister, wait for me..."
Luo Meijiao and her maidservant reluctantly chased after her, and the man with the fan also slunk away with them.
Wenwen watched the group walk away, a smirk playing on her lips. "Hmph, they may escape the first day of the month, but they won't escape the fifteenth. They'll get what's coming to them one day."
Alright, it was a relationship of mutual exploitation from the start, and now only the man in blue lying down is left at the scene.
Wenwen kicked the person who was pretending to be dead, "Hey, hey, wake up, if you keep pretending, I'll break your legs."
The man opened his eyes and uttered a few words with difficulty, "Great hero... please speak."
"Would you like to go to the yamen for a cup of tea?" Wenwen teased him.
The man shook his head vigorously, "No, I don't want to, I don't want to."
"You think you can just quit because you don't want to go? Dream on."
"Great hero, what else do you want?"
Wenwen stroked her chin and said after a few breaths, "Go to the Luo family and deliver a message. Go in person and tell the old hag of the Luo family, 'Don't mess with the Ren family, or else, it will start with you.' Go."
"Excuse me, excuse me, what's going on?"
Haha, the patrol officers have arrived. The matter has just been settled, and their arrival is very timely.
The officers looked at the onlookers, then at the man lying down, and asked him, "What's wrong with you? Do you want to report this to the authorities?"
The man in blue shook his head, his words muffled, "No need, I'm going back now that I've fallen."
The man struggled to his feet, enduring the pain, and swung his limp arms as he quickly left the place of trouble.
Seeing this, the officials quickly dispersed the crowd, saying, "Alright, it's alright now. Stop watching. Go do what you were doing. There's nothing to see here. Go buy what you wanted."
The onlookers dispersed immediately, and a round-faced official approached Ren Zu'an, cupping his hands in greeting. "Lord Ren, please get in the carriage. We are about to patrol West Second Street. Shall we follow you?"
"Hey, hey, thank you for your help, guys."
Ren Zu'an took his two granddaughters into the carriage. The little girl only got into the carriage with her grandfather after being coerced and lured by her older sister.
Wenwen, of course, went back to her own carriage.
The group, escorted by officials, headed towards the Ren residence.
After turning out of the bustling street, Wen Qilin used telepathy to talk to his siblings, "Ahem, I have something really scary to tell you."
Wen Chengjian: "Father, what's wrong? Why did you use the word 'terrifying'?"
Wenwen: "Daddy, don't scare me, I'm timid."
Wen Qilin: "Stop joking, it's true. That little brat just now, that's your little cousin Jin Ning. He seems to recognize us."
"How could that be, Dad? Don't joke like that."
“Really, he whispered to me, ‘Uncle, avenge me!’ I almost threw him away.”
Wenwen and Wenchengjian, brother and sister, looked at each other in disbelief. This was no joke. Could it be that the child had become a spirit?
Wenwen seized the opportunity, "Father, did your disguise fail? Or did something go wrong and not go well?"
Wen Qilin's heart skipped a beat. He guessed that Wen Qilin had been too eager to make the hand seals and his fingers had been flying too fast. Oh dear!
Without saying a word, Wen Qilin began to cast the spell on himself again, repeating the hand seals several times before stopping.
Wenwen: "Father, how many layers of restrictions have you placed here? It's really hard to explain."
“My dear daughter, I’m so scared now. Luckily, you’re sensible and didn’t shout it out in the street. Otherwise, it would have brought even more trouble to your maternal family.”
Wen Chengbin suddenly brought up something, "Father, before at the academy, the steward mentioned that my maternal grandparents' family was either paralyzed or lame. Now, we're hearing these same rumors on the street. Could it be that something really happened to my maternal grandparents' family?"
Wen Qilin pondered for a few moments and said, "For the past six months, your Uncle Ye and Uncle Wei have been in the valley, and not a single piece of news from the capital has been sent back. Could it be that someone is interfering?"
Wenwen disagreed, saying, "I think it was my maternal grandfather who prevented us from knowing."
Wen Qilin: "That's possible, otherwise your maternal grandfather wouldn't be so exhausted."
Wenwen: "Sigh, Grandfather looks much older than Grandpa. Dad, I was thinking..."
Before he could finish speaking, the driver, Old Li, called from outside, "Grandpa, we're home."
The group entered the front yard, and just as they turned the corner of the covered bridge, a series of noisy footsteps came from the end.
The steward and several maids and servants were walking out in a panic when they saw Ren Zu'an and quickly stopped.
"Grandpa, you're back."
Ren Zu'an's heart skipped a beat. "What's wrong? Why are you in such a panic?"
