Reborn as a farmer's favorite, Koi sweet wife super lucky husband

Some people lower their heads silently, trying to make themselves inconspicuous.

They knew very well that the other party's gorgeous clothes represented status and wealth, which were beyond the reach of the lower-class people like them.

Even though he felt extremely aggrieved, he did not dare to retort easily, for fear of bringing about greater disaster.

This is the mentality of most ordinary people. In any era and any place, when faced with power, they choose to swallow their anger.

Just as Ma Zhi wanted to stand up to protest, Ma Yongbo pushed him back to his seat, his eyes full of meaning, and whispered in a low voice: "Don't cause trouble for Master Wu."

Ma Zhi had no choice but to suppress the anger burning in his chest and sit back in his original position.

Wu Xu watched all this coldly, with no expression on his face and as silent as a stone statue.

The laughter of those dandy boys gradually died down, and the young master of the Zhang family started to attack again: "Hey, hey, hey, I advise you to be more sensible and get out of here immediately, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

At this time, Ran He smiled lightly and asked back, with a chill that could not be ignored in that smile: "What if we don't leave?"

Her tone was calm, but there was a sharp edge hidden in it.

The young master of the Zhang family then noticed the person sitting in the upper seat. He looked at Ran He, who was wearing an ordinary cotton coat. Although he had an outstanding temperament, he did not look like those nobles dressed in silk and satin.

So he concluded in his heart that this woman must be of ordinary origin, and became even more unscrupulous in his contempt.

"Don't go?"

The young master of the Zhang family sneered, "Then I will break your legs and let you know how powerful I am. Then I will throw you out like garbage and let the people of Lin'an see what happens when they disobey me."

Finally, Ma Zhi couldn't stand it anymore: "You are so tyrannical, aren't you afraid of being investigated by the government?"

Young Master Zhang did not answer immediately, but the playboys behind him burst into laughter as if they had heard a huge joke.

"The government is holding us accountable? Are you kidding me?"

One person mocked.

Another person pointed at the young master of the Zhang family and asked Ma Zhi provocatively: "Do you know who he is?"

Ma Zhi's face was tense, and he forced out two words: "I don't know."

The man proudly declared: "It's okay to tell you, his uncle is the nephew of the Lin'an County Magistrate."

When the people in Majia Village heard this, their faces turned pale in an instant, and anxiety and fear spread in everyone's heart.

For them, a powerful person like the county magistrate is simply an untouchable existence.

"The nephew of the county magistrate is so impressive."

Wu Xu, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke at this moment, but there was a barely perceptible coldness in his tone.

Then, he turned to Yan Er and gave him an order: "Please ask Master Zhang to come over."

Yan Er responded, his figure flashed, and he left quickly, leaving the room full of shock and confusion.

The faces of Young Master Zhang and others were filled with expressions of surprise and disdain.

One of them sneered: "Your rhetoric, do you think we are three-year-old children? Who do you think you are, a relative of the governor? How dare you speak so arrogantly and ask Lord Zhang to judge the case? It's just wishful thinking."

“No matter how much you brag, you should know when to stop. If you brag too much, you will be in big trouble if you fall down.”

"Let's see how you can blow your own trumpet."

These rich kids seemed to be afraid that the scene wasn't chaotic enough, and they all stood around with their arms folded, looking like they were enjoying a good show.

Ever since this group of dandies went upstairs to make a fuss, the spectators downstairs have been craning their necks. When they heard that the matter involved Lord Zhang, no one wanted to miss this rare good show, and they all stopped to watch.

Upon hearing the news, the shopkeeper of Zuixianlou hurried back from the next street, muttering: "Everyone upstairs, this has really stirred up a hornet's nest."

"If you offend Young Master Zhang, it's no small matter. You'll lose a lot of skin at least."

"When did Young Master Zhang become so arrogant? I just returned to Lin'an not long ago and I have no idea about these situations."

A recently returned businessman looked puzzled.

The insider nearby immediately answered his doubts: "The past is the past, but the situation is different now. Ever since the Hua family was suppressed by that mysterious person, Mr. Zhang's status has risen rapidly. It is said that he has also won the favor of that big shot, and even the prefect has to give him some face. It is said outside that Mr. Zhang will definitely be promoted when his term is up. In the past, he was suppressed by the Hua family, but now that the Hua family's constraints are gone, the Zhang family has hooked up with a higher level of power and nobles, so naturally they have begun to become arrogant. The other members of the Zhang family are relatively restrained, but this young master Zhang is the most arrogant and unruly."

"For us common people, it is better to avoid these playboys and stay away from them."

The people around nodded in agreement.

What they feared was not only Lord Zhang, but also the invisible and intangible big man behind Lord Zhang.

There was a lot of discussion downstairs and the atmosphere upstairs was tense.

Although Ran He signaled everyone to continue eating, the Ma family members were uneasy, with their chopsticks hanging in the air, unable to put them down.

Especially after learning about Young Master Zhang's true identity, he became even more flustered and uneasy.

Ma Yongbo suggested softly: "Mr. Wu, Mrs. Wu, everyone has almost finished eating, why don't we leave early."

He didn't want his masters, the Wu family and the Zhang family, to come into feud because of him.

"Uncle Ma, don't worry, just sit still and relax."

As soon as Wu Xu finished speaking, someone upstairs who was curious heard it and immediately started to make sarcastic remarks.

"Oh, you're giving in already? Are you planning on sneaking away with your tail between your legs?"

The followers were talking to each other, making sarcastic remarks and provocative remarks.

"Want to leave? That's not that easy. Unless you kneel down and beg for mercy to Master Zhang, and make him happy, he might show mercy and let you go."

"well said!"

On the other side, Mr. Zhang was leisurely reading a book in the study, enjoying a moment of peace.

Suddenly, a subtle sound quietly broke the silence.

Mr. Zhang didn't take it seriously at first, until...

A slight cough was like a bolt from the blue, shocking Zhang Zhi all over.

Zhang Zhi looked up suddenly, and when he saw that the person coming was Yan Er, he felt a little relieved, but then he felt the strange atmosphere around him. He stood up quickly and asked nervously, "Could it be that the prince has some urgent instructions?"

There was a mixture of awe and curiosity in his tone.

If it was just an ordinary official business, there would never be such a secret. It must be that the prince had an important secret mission to entrust to him.

This thought was like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, stirring up ripples in Zhang Zhi's heart, and an irrepressible excitement surged in his heart.

This is not just a simple errand, but also the prince's recognition of his ability, indicating that he may become a pillar under the prince. This trust is like a fire in winter, warm and motivating.

There were all kinds of speculations from the outside world, saying that he had climbed up the ladder of power and influence, but only Zhang Zhi himself knew his true background and painstaking efforts, which were a kind of persistence and hard work that were unknown to outsiders.

Yan Er's voice was low and cold, like a blade in the cold wind: "The prince wants to summon you."
