Tang's dining table

Of course, Yun Chu would not follow a group of imperial students to secretly collect women's belts in dark alleys.

He wanted to pick up the stick with Naha to help protect the residents who were bullied by the city foxes and rats last night.

The mother of Yaoniang, one of Naha's younger brothers, was bullied by those people last night. Not only did those people take away some money that Yaoniang's mother had earned from selling silk, they also injured Yaoniang's grandfather.

At the same time, it was not just Yaoniang's family who was bullied. Almost all the families who had a stall in Jinchangfang last night were bullied, and each family lost at least five yuan.

After hearing this, the furious Naha's head almost exploded with rage.

She was about to rush out of the bathhouse without clothes to avenge her younger brothers. Fortunately, she was hugged by the quick-eyed Cui family, so there was no horrifying scene of the Yun family's young lady running around naked and beating people with a stick.

"Brother, let's go!"

Naha returned home angrily, picked up her small baseball bat, thought for a moment and took her brother's large baseball bat as well, went to her brother's study, and threw the large baseball bat to her brother without saying anything. .

Yunchu caught the baseball bat and said with a smile, "Who messed with you?"

After Naha stumbledly explained the cause and effect of the matter, Yun Chu's face darkened.

From the time he came back until now, Liu Yi has not told him about the villagers being blackmailed by the city foxes and rats.

This made Yunchu even more disappointed with Liu Yi.

After calming down the furious Naha, Yun Chu asked Fei Jiu to call Liu Yi over for questioning.

"Chief, this is not a big deal. There are no fangs, and the government collects taxes. We only give the bucktooth tiger five yuan, which is already very cheap."

Yun Chu said calmly: "There are more than 5,600 people in a village, and a dozen thugs bullied them so much that they dare not move?

Or are you colluding with the buck-toothed tiger to steal people's money? "

Yun Chu's words were calm, but the coercion in his words made Liu Yi unable to stand still anymore. He knelt down in front of Yun Chu and said, "Oh my god, if I, Liu Yi, do such inhuman things, Just let me be struck by five thunderbolts from the sky, and I will not die a good death.

Chief, you don't know, Bucktooth Tiger and the others are the tyrants in our Wannian County. They bully men and women, do all kinds of evil, and extort money from merchants is commonplace.

We in Jinchangfang are all honest people, how dare we fight with these people.

The little old man also heard that Han Da, a pork seller in Zhaoguofang, beat up a gangster because he refused to pay them any money for shoes. When he went out of town to enter the pig industry the next day, he never came back. Life or death is unknown...

There is also Mrs. Chen who does embroidery work in Anshanfang across from us. She can't make much money from her embroidery work, and she was forced to pay by the buck-toothed tiger. Mrs. Chen refused, and then her grandson, who was dependent on Mrs. Chen, fell into a well. drowned.

Mrs. Chen went crazy to find the buck-toothed tiger, had its legs broken and threw it back. That night, Mrs. Chen climbed to the well where her grandson drowned, and also committed suicide.

After the bad guys found out about this, they said they were going to catch the buck-toothed tiger. However, after catching the buck-toothed tiger, they only beat him thirty times and released him.

Then, the person who tipped off the bad guy died the next day. The bad guy said he committed suicide and hastily ended the matter.

The mayor, for some reason, Buck-toothed Tiger didn't make a big deal last night, so he beat up Yaoniang's grandfather and charged five bucks from the other merchants. This has been a rare opportunity for him to talk easily in many years. "

After listening to Liu Yi's words, Yun Chu was silent for a moment. He had never thought that there would be any underworld on his street.

He hadn't even been in contact with this kind of person for a long time, because, since the first year he took office, an earthwork bully appeared on the street. After he found two unarmed police officers and gave him a lesson, he I have never heard of this tyrant or that tyrant again.

After all, when the earth-moving bully was arrested by the police, he cried like a child and pointed fingers in the sky, trying to prove to the police that he just had a bad mouth, wanted to pull more earth-moving, scolded some people, and threatened some people. It was really He has no intention of taking action, let alone a gangster.

At that time, Yun Chu felt pitiful when he saw a strong man crying like that.

Now, he finally has to face the bullies of Datang!

It just so happens that the scattered residents of Jinchangfang also need some more collectivism education.

In the Tang Dynasty, the jurisdiction over Lifang was almost the same as that in the previous dynasty, that is, the gentry was autonomous. Basically, as long as the government received sufficient taxes from the gentry, it would remain in a laissez-faire state.

For thousands of years, the concept of "non-litigation" has been deeply rooted, and the idea that once a piece of paper enters the officialdom cannot be retrieved, it is a common mentality among the people.

"Private settlement" is the most willing and acceptable way of resolving disputes among the people, and the middleman who presides over "private settlement" is the local squire, specifically in Jinchangfang, it is Yunchu.

However, Yunchu usually ignores those trivial matters and leaves them all to the official Liu Yi. Liu Yi also likes to do this kind of thing, because as long as he wins once, he can collect a sum of money, although it is not much. Liu Yi attaches great importance to it.

"Is there a clause in our Jinchangfang's "Rural Regulations and Civil Agreements" that says, "Thieves must be beaten if they come, and no one will care if they are killed"?

Liu Yi said blankly: "Where did our Jinchangfang get the "Township Rules and Conventions"? This little old man has never heard of it."

Yun Chu threw a piece of licorice into his mouth, chewed it slowly, and said to Liu Yi, who was kneeling on the ground: "It didn't happen before, but now it does. The first rule is that thieves need to be beaten, even if they are killed!"

Yun Chu looked at the confused Liu Yi, kicked his foot in disgust and said, "Get up quickly, I want you to inform all the residents of this "Township Rules and Conventions" before night."

Liu Yi shook his head and said, "One is too few."

Yun Chu snorted and said: "Then add one more, the weather is dry and everything is dry, be careful of the candle!"

Liu Yi still wanted to ask, but when he saw that Li Chang's face was not very good, he hurriedly left. Until he left, he was still playing with the words "Thieves must be beaten when they come, even if they are killed."

Suddenly, Liu Yi stopped and his eyes were as big as cowbells. Only now did he understand why the village chief came up with a "Township Code and Civil Agreement" with only two provisions.

"Grandpa Tian, ​​Grandpa Buck-toothed Tiger, I'm afraid of you tonight. Don't dare to come. If you come, you'll be dead."

Liu Yiyuan was more confident in his father's military power than Yun Chu himself, because his father was a fierce general who had killed 30,000 Turkic troops!

I thought that the head of the village was unwilling to care about the small things where the residents were being bullied. But now it seems that the head of his family is very protective and doesn't hesitate to kill people.

"Brother, when are we going to teach those bad guys a lesson?" Naha waved her baseball bat. It seemed that her baseball bat was already thirsty.

Yun Chu looked at the sun that was gradually setting in the west and the moon that was gradually rising, and whispered: "We are going to close the door and beat the dog tonight!"

Naha's eyes narrowed and she said to Yun Chu fiercely: "I want to beat them to death! They actually touched and smashed me!

Aunt Cui once told me that this part of a woman cannot be touched by men! If you touch a woman, you will not survive. "

Yun Chu laughed softly: "Do you still remember how we dealt with sheep thieves when we were in Tianshan?"

Naha said loudly: "Cut off their two hands, then chop off their heads, stick them on wooden stakes, and use Udo to throw rocks at them.

Jiesika once said that sheep thieves are a group of black pigs who only care about their own well-being and don't care about the life or death of others. "

Yun Chu smiled and said: "The group of people who bully Yaoniang's mother tonight are just like the sheep thieves. They are also damned black pigs."

Naha nodded repeatedly and swung the baseball bat more vigorously.

Yunchu never worried about killing people in front of Naha, because at a young age, Naha had seen too many killing scenes. For her, killing was an indispensable behavior in life.

When it gets dark, the giant phoenix on the gate of Jinchangfang once again dances in the swaying lights. Behind the giant phoenix is ​​the long lane of Jinchangfang. The lanterns on both sides of the lane that were originally taken away by the riddle guessers are once again intact. The ground appeared in front of people, the lanterns were bright red, dyeing the whole alley dark red, looking very mysterious.

Yaoniang's mother gritted her teeth and came out to sell silk flowers with a huge basket. She didn't want to come out, but her man was injured by the buck-toothed tiger and couldn't move in bed. Yaoniang said that her boss would help her. Come on, nothing bad will happen tonight.

In addition, my family really needed money to buy medicine, so I gritted my teeth and set up a stall, hoping to make a few more pennies.

Yaoniang also came out holding another bamboo basket. Whenever she saw someone passing by, the child would loudly solicit guests.

As more stalls were set up, Yaoniang's mother clasped her hands together and prayed to the giant phoenix on top of the square gate: "Empress Wende bless, Empress Wende bless."

The giant phoenix still swayed in the light, and occasionally emitted a clear chirp, as if it was really responding to Yaoniang's mother's prayers.

"When frying gourd seeds, can't you add some salt before frying? Do you know that gourd seeds without salt have a strange smell?

Also, what the hell are you shouting about? What does eating your gourd seeds mean longevity? You know nothing. I am the Chief Physician of the Imperial Medical Office. Let me tell you, eating your gourd seeds will make you live longer. Do you know that if a man regains his prominence, the golden gun will never fall?

Yes, just shout like that. If anyone asks, just say it was Sun Shenxian who said it. I guarantee that your business will be good. "

"Ahem, I'm calling you, the steamer cake seller. If you dare to touch the steamer cake next time, believe it or not, I'll cut off your dirty hands?"

The mayor was a little arrogant, and some noisy voices came from the end of the street. For some reason, this annoying sound made Yaoniang's mother not afraid for no reason.

There happened to be a couple walking by with a little girl, and she immediately shouted loudly: "Selling silk flowers, selling silk flowers, silk flowers tied with fine palace silk. Men wear them as grooms, and women wear them as brides." , selling silk flowers, the silk flowers that Sun Shenxian has said are good..."
