This scholar is a bit cruel

Chapter 234: The wine shop was burned down and Lai Da was beaten

"Tsk, tsk, still lying in bed."

After Wang Shanbao came in, she was the first to attack, and continued to add fuel to the fire, sneering, "Miss Qingwen, who are you trying to scare by fasting and pretending to be sick? Are you dissatisfied with Madam's reprimand the other day? If you are dissatisfied, just say it out loud. Why do you have to act so pretentiously and threaten to kill yourself? Are you trying to get the news to the old lady and let her make the decision for you?"

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she became even angrier and said angrily, "Don't even mention that the old lady doesn't pamper you anymore. Even if she still pampers you, I won't let you off today!"

Qingwen shed tears and said, "Madam, I did nothing wrong. You also asked someone to check my box, and inside..."

"No need to say more!"

Mrs. Wang interrupted her with a gloomy face and gave her an ultimatum: "With your temper, my Jia Mansion can no longer tolerate you. If you want to starve yourself to death, go outside and die. Don't dirty my son's yard! Do you want to get up and leave today, or do you want me to order someone to throw you out? You decide."

When Qingwen heard this, she burst into tears. Her body became weaker and weaker. Her voice was trembling, but she was still stubborn: "Madam, I am not wrong..."

Mrs. Wang lost her patience and immediately shouted, "Lift it up and throw it out!"

Housekeeper Wang Shanbao agreed and immediately went over with a maid to carry the person away.

At this time, Cui Mo suddenly said at the window: "Madam, calm down. Miss Qingtong came to the mansion just now and said that she would come to visit Qingwen in a while, so Miss asked me to inform Qingwen first..."

As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Shanbao's wife and the nanny stopped immediately.

Madam Wang's face changed several times, and she looked at the bed and said coldly, "If you don't want to embarrass yourself, you can leave after Miss Bai comes to visit you. I will send someone over in the evening. If you haven't left by then, don't blame me for not showing you mercy!"

After that, he said to a maidservant beside him: "Return her indenture to her. From now on, she is no longer a maid in my Jia Mansion."

"Yes, ma'am."

The girl took a contract and put it on the bedside.

Mrs. Wang said nothing more and turned and left.

Housewife Wang Shanbao and the maids looked at each other and immediately followed behind.

Silence returned to the room.

Qingwen was lying on the bed, her face pale and covered with tears.

After everyone outside had left, Cui Mofang whispered outside the window: "Mr. Luo, hurry up, be careful someone might come back."

Hearing the voice, Luo Zijun crawled out from under the bed, looked at the girl on the bed, reached out and picked up the indenture. When he was about to speak, Cui Mo urged him urgently from outside the window: "Master Luo! Xiren and the others will be here soon! If they see you here..."

Luo Zijun didn't dare to stay any longer and left the room immediately.

Cui Mo was nervous outside, and hurriedly walked in front to explore the way. After reaching the gate of the yard, he looked outside and urged: "Master Luo, there is no one, hurry up!"

Luo Zijun went out and, under her guidance, went to the garden in the backyard.

There are several pavilions in the garden corridor, and Jia Tanchun, Bai Qingtong and others are talking and laughing in the pavilion.

Lin Daiyu was also wearing a red skirt and a fox fur coat, sitting nearby and talking.

At this time, someone noticed him and pointed at him.

The girls and maids in the pavilion all looked over here immediately.

Shi Xiangyun said something in Lin Daiyu's ear, and Lin Daiyu blushed immediately and chased her to tickle her.

Luo Zijun did not go over, but stopped not far away and bowed to everyone as a greeting, then said to the maid beside her: "Miss Cui Mo, go and call Miss Qing Tong over. I have something else to do, so I will not go over. I will come back to apologize to the ladies later."

Cui Mo agreed and walked over.

Bai Qingtong immediately came over from the pavilion and asked, "Brother-in-law, what's the hurry? Tanchun and the others are waiting for you to come over and talk."

Luo Zijun said, "Next time, Third Miss, accompany me to Lai's Winery."

Naturally, he wanted to see this scene of revenge with his own eyes.

When Bai Qingtong heard this, she knew something important was happening, so she quickly waved to everyone in the pavilion and said, "Tanchun, you guys have fun. My brother-in-law and I have something else to do. We'll come back next time."

Shi Xiangyun suddenly laughed and shouted, "Sister Qingtong, Pin'er has been waiting for you for a long time, Luo...ah!"

Before she could finish her words, Lin Daiyu, who was standing beside her, hurriedly covered her mouth with a blushing face.

Bai Qingtong smiled, waved, and then left quickly with Luo Zijun.

The two men left the house, got on a carriage, and headed towards East City.

Soon, the carriage arrived at Qilin Street.

The entire Qilin Street, as well as some of the alleys, were completely blocked.

Lai's Winery was surrounded by people.

There was constant sound of shouting, cursing and beating.

Bai Qingtong was stunned when she saw this scene, then she immediately realized: "Is there something wrong with the wine from Lai's Winery again?"

The last time something happened, it caused a big fuss, but it was finally settled with the intervention of the government. But this time something happened again.

At this moment, she suddenly understood and looked at the young man beside her and said, "Brother-in-law..."

Luo Zijun jumped off the carriage and walked towards the winery.

Bai Qingtong immediately followed him, his expression changing, unable to understand how he did it.

Luo Zijun squeezed to the front door of Lai's Brewery and saw chaos inside.

Everyone in the winery was pinned to the ground and beaten. Lai Qinglai was beaten with a bloody head. He lay on the ground, motionless. A closer look revealed that his chest was sunken and a part of his head had collapsed. He was actually beaten to death!

Under the protection of several guards, Lai Daze kept apologizing and even knelt on the ground and kowtowed. His head was bleeding, his clothes were torn, and his face looked embarrassed and frightened.

The angry crowd had already rushed into the winery and was smashing things everywhere.

"Pay up! Pay up!"

Many people shouted angrily.

Luo Zijun picked up a stick from the ground, squeezed through the crowd, and walked towards Lai Da who was kneeling on the ground to apologize.

Seeing this scene, Bai Qingtong immediately followed.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Luo Zijun took advantage of the chaos to hit Lai Da several times with a stick. The guards could only block with their bodies and did not dare to fight back.

Lai Daze lowered his head to apologize, and it was unclear who did it.

Because everyone was fighting, and those who were beating him were all people of status, and he was just a servant and could not afford to offend them.

"boom!"

Luo Zijun took the opportunity to hit him hard on the nose, causing his nose to bleed profusely.

When other people beat him, they showed mercy and did not hit him in the face. After all, he was the head steward of the Jia family and was also responsible for compensation.

Lai Da groaned in pain, covered his nose, looked up, and saw at a glance the young man who hit him on the nose. When he saw it, he was suddenly shocked and angry, and the aura of a warrior burst out from his body.

Luo Zijun raised his stick and said angrily, "How dare you glare at me, you liar? Our Bai family bought dozens of barrels of wine from you. My father-in-law, mother-in-law, and second uncle drank fake wine from your Lai's Winery last night and had diarrhea all night, almost dying! You are so bold, you even harmed the people in the Duke's Mansion and the Prince of the County, and now you want to fight back?"

As soon as these words came out, the warrior aura on Lai Da's body was extinguished. The people around him became even angrier and started fighting again.

Luo Zijun naturally showed no mercy, and took the opportunity to hit him with a few sticks, cursing as he beat him: "I told you not to kick me! I told you not to glare at me! You dare to glare at me after doing something wrong! I can't kill you!"

Bai Qingtong, who was following behind to protect him, said: "..."

Lai Da covered his head, lay on the ground, and dared not look up again.

He is a warrior, so he won't be killed by such a beating, but flesh wounds are inevitable.

Just when Luo Zijun was getting excited about fighting, Jia She finally arrived with government officials.

When everyone saw this, they stopped, but they all gathered around to tell about their grievances.

"Master Jia, we came here to buy wine again after buying Huaijiu last time because we trusted your Jia Mansion. As a result, we almost lost our family last night..."

"Master Jia, you, the chief steward, are so bold. If you don't do anything, I will go to the palace to file a complaint today! You are trying to poison us to death!"

When Jia She heard this, he was overwhelmed and hurriedly apologized. Then he rushed over and punched and kicked Lai Da who was kneeling on the ground, cursing as he beat him: "You dog slave, what a good thing you have done! You have caused my Jia family to be implicated. Today, I will beat you to death!"

Lai cried and begged for mercy: "Master, this is all Lai Qing's fault. It has nothing to do with me."

When everyone heard this, they said angrily, "This is your Lai's Winery, how can it have nothing to do with you? If you don't use the name of the Jia Mansion, who would buy your wine?"

Jia She punched and kicked Lai Da again, and cursed with red eyes: "Damn you slave, you still dare to quibble!"

Luo Zijun took a look at the wine shop and immediately squeezed over. Before the soldiers surrounded them, he secretly took out a tinderbox, opened it, and threw it into the scattered wine on the ground.

"Everyone, be quiet! Everyone, be quiet!"

Lord Wang in the government office was even more troubled, because those who came here to seek justice were people he could not afford to offend.

Luo Zijun left the crowd, pulled Bai Qingtong up and said, "Let's go."

As soon as the two walked out of the winery gate, they saw a fire burning in the winery. After seeing it, those people not only did not put out the fire, but also deliberately picked up the wine barrels and threw them over.

The entire winery's warehouse and wine cellar were also smashed to pieces.

The fire quickly spread throughout the winery.

Lord Wang shouted hurriedly: "Fire! Fire!"

However, the house on the ground was full of wine, and the crowd was pushing and shoving, and deliberately setting the fire, so there was no way to put out the fire.

Lai Da raised his head and took a look, his face suddenly filled with despair.

When Luo Zijun saw the fire rising into the sky and engulfing the entire house, Fang and Miss Bai San walked towards the carriage.

At this time, Bai Ming, supported by several people and accompanied by the Bai family's guards, came angrily. When he saw the two of them, he was stunned for a moment and said, "Qingtong, Zijun, why are you here?"

Luo Zijun hurriedly said, "Father-in-law, I heard that fake wine is sold here. Everyone drank it yesterday and had diarrhea. We didn't buy it here, did we?"

After these words were spoken, Bai Qingtong, who was standing beside him, looked at him with resentment.

Bai Ming held his stomach and angrily said, "Why didn't you buy any! Qingtong bought dozens of barrels and gave them to the Prince's Mansion and the General's Mansion... Your second uncle and I drank several pots of wine last night. It was really terrible. We had diarrhea from last night until morning and couldn't get out of the toilet. I heard that your second uncle fell into the toilet and almost drowned... Damn it! I'm going to beat Lai Qinglai to death!"

Luo Zijun: “…”

Bai Qingtong: "..."

"Father-in-law, you are a step too late. Shopkeeper Lai has been beaten to death, but Lai Da is still alive. I heard that this Lai's Winery belongs to him. Father-in-law, hurry over there, or the other party will be beaten to death first."

Luo Zijun urged hurriedly.

When Bai Ming heard this, he immediately took the stick and walked over with his guards, his face pale and his steps unsteady.

"Pfft..."

Bai Qingtong suddenly laughed out loud in the back, then quickly covered her mouth and said to someone beside her: "Brother-in-law, you are too mean..."

Luo Zijun hurriedly got on the carriage.

Bai Qingtong followed him, laughed for a while, and complained: "Why didn't you tell me in advance, so I could remind my father and second uncle. My brother-in-law is a bit too much. Why did he even harm his own people?"

Luo Zijun said: "Miss San, don't talk nonsense. This matter has nothing to do with me."

Bai Qingtong rolled her eyes at him and said, "Brother-in-law, don't you even trust me now?"

Luo Zijun opened the curtains and looked outside. After seeing the carriage moving away, he whispered, "This matter is of great importance. I dare not say anything carelessly. I hope Miss San will not tell anyone. This time, my father-in-law and his men drank fake wine. Let them ask Lai Duo for more compensation. Don't be soft-hearted."

Bai Qingtong smiled and said, "I know. This time, I will make him lose everything. After something like this happened, Lai Qinglai has been beaten to death, and the spearhead will definitely be directed at Lai Da. He will definitely be arrested. Even if he is bailed out by the Jia family, he will definitely have to pay compensation. No matter how much we ask for, he will have to give it, otherwise he will never be able to get out."

Luo Zijun said: "I heard that he built a small garden in his mansion, which is magnificent and has many treasures..."

Bai Qingtong smiled and said, "I will tell my father and second uncle and make sure he doesn't leave anything behind."

Then he blinked again and asked curiously, "Brother-in-law, how did you do it? As far as I know, this wine shop is heavily guarded and there are warriors guarding it. How did you make so many drinks go wrong? And it went wrong twice."

Luo Zijun said: "Secret."

Bai Qingtong snorted: "Can't you even tell your sister-in-law?"

Luo Zijun said: "No."

"Humph."

"Stop the carriage, I'm going down to buy something!"

Luo Zijun quickly opened the curtain and walked out.

The carriage stopped immediately.

Luo Zijun got off the carriage, walked to the street, and looked at those lifelike sugar figures.

I'm in a good mood today, so I'll do some human work to satisfy that girl Baibai.

Bai Qingtong stuck her head out of the car window and asked, "Brother-in-law, are you going to use a sugar man to coax me?"

Luo Zijun said: "Yes, Miss Third, do you want me to coax you?"

Bai Qingtong suddenly smiled and said, "Yes!"

Luo Zijun took out some silver and bought ten candy figures at once.

at the same time.

In the Jia Mansion, Jia Tanchun came to Qingwen's room, tried to persuade her, and then went to the old lady to plead for Qingwen.

The old lady sighed and said, "I heard that the girl is dying. Although I love her, I can't let her dirty the house. Tanchun, I am old and can't take care of this kind of thing. You should go find Baoyu and ask him to beg his mother. Maybe his mother will calm down and find a house for her to live in."

Jia Tanchun frowned and said, "Baoyu is timid and afraid of his mother, so how dare he go and persuade her."

The old lady sighed again, closed her eyes, fell drowsy, and said nothing more.

Yuanyang next to her hurriedly said, "Miss San, it's time for the old lady to take a nap."

Jia Tanchun didn't dare say anything more and stood up and left unhappily.
