Chapter 31 The whip is the king’s law
With a straight face, the yamen officer walked quickly to the rioting crowd, raising the whip in his hand as he walked. In an instant, everyone dispersed, and they had to watch the commotion for their lives.

"What are you making a fuss about? I have warned you before not to gather in groups to make trouble. What are you doing? Do you want to challenge the official authority?" A black-faced government official looked around and said viciously.

"Sir, you came just in time. This girl beat my grandson indiscriminately, so hard that his buttocks were bruised. Not only that, my lord, she actually beat her upside down and turned the whole thing on my grandson. , It’s really unjust.”

"She is the one who caused the trouble first. My grandson is such a good child, but she is so cruel and cruel. You must make the decision for us, my lord!" Grandma Jiang said when she saw her. When the official came, he clapped his hands on the ground and said with tears.

This change of face is so fast that she can join the Nanqu Opera Troupe to sing. She is completely different from the old lady who was full of energy just now.

Yesterday, he had already delayed a lot of travel, and the yamen servant was upset. Grandma Jiang's crying made him even more upset. He flicked his whip twice and angrily said:
"Why are you making such a fuss! Old ladies like to cry. If you cry, I'll be upset. If you cry again, I'll get started. Stop crying! Can you calm down a little bit every day? Can you!"

Grandma Jiang was startled by the sudden roar, her melodious crying stopped abruptly, and she held back the tears that had just accumulated in her eyes.

A wise man is a man who knows the current affairs. This is the first principle she has learned since her exile. The fourth child and his wife were severely beaten because they did not listen to dissuasion.

She is an old woman, but she can't stand these tossings, so she shouldn't cry if she doesn't want to. Anyway, the goal has been achieved, and there is no need to do anything more.

Seeing that the old woman was so understanding, the officer's dark complexion softened slightly, and then he said sternly: "I don't care who of you caused trouble first. Since you have all made trouble, you will all be punished. Because of you, this team has already It’s slowing down. If you can’t catch up with today’s goal, can you bear the responsibility?”

"There is no such thing as you making trouble and she making trouble in my place. Since they have all made trouble, they will all be punished. I have said it before, you are not allowed to gather in groups to make trouble, and you are not allowed to gather in groups to make trouble. Since you turned a deaf ear, then You have to pay the price!”

"Anyone who participated in this mass disturbance will be given two whips. If you dare to do it again next time, the number of whips will be doubled. If I don't give you a few whips, do you really think that I am scaring you? Since you don't take what I said seriously, then don't blame me for slapping you. .”

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung the whip in his hand twice and walked towards the troublemakers.

When Grandma Jiang heard this, she immediately retorted: "Is there any law in the world anymore? Those who make trouble are not punished. Why should we be whipped if we don't make trouble? I don't know if there is any law in the world." That makes sense!”

The yamen servant looked at the woman and sneered: "The king's law? What is the king's law? The whip in my hand is the king's law! Reason? What kind of reason? Shouldn't you be punished for taking part in making trouble? If you dare to talk nonsense again, Then the punishment will be doubled!”

When the farce first broke out, the Jiang family members gathered around Grandma Jiang to watch the play. No one dared to help, let alone the government officials who wanted to punish her.

They are afraid of the strange women and the whips of the officials. They dare not confront the officials. If the people do not fight the officials, they will not be able to fight even if they don't want to.

Grandfather Jiang originally wanted to step forward and persuade his wife to hold her temper and not confront the yamen servant. Who knew that she would speak so quickly and confront him directly.

He had no choice but to wink at his old wife, to hold it still for now so as not to add fuel to the fire. After Grandma Jiang received the look in her eyes, she had no choice but to lower her straight neck.He originally thought that it would be inappropriate for him to interfere in the woman's family affairs, but he didn't expect that things would develop to this point!This granddaughter is too unruly. She disobeys her superiors and beats her clan members. Every incident will be punished by family law!

Thinking of this, Grandfather Jiang's eyes darkened and he gave her a serious look.

When the Jiang family brothers saw that the yamen servant was about to use the whip, their eyes immediately turned red and they stepped forward to plead for mercy.

Jiang Xingbo glanced at Mr. Zhuang sadly. Although it was indeed Mingyan who provoked Miao Yatou in the first place and Mingyan was in the wrong in this matter, didn't his mother know how to let her go as she is already old?If she gets angry, who among them can bear the responsibility?
He also knew that his mother did prefer Ming Yan, but she was her mother, so Zhuang could give in first, and then slowly persuade her later. With his wife on one side and his mother on the other, the palms and backs of his hands were full of flesh, and he was really helpless.

"My lord, my lord, my mother is old and all she says are angry words. Sir, please don't be on the same level as her. This is a little thought, please accept it."

As he said this, Jiang Xingshuo took out a banknote from his lapel and stuffed it into the yamen servant's arms, flatteringly begging for his old mother's mercy, hoping that he would be lenient.

Jiang Xingyuan was a military commander. When he saw the government servant coming over with a whip and was about to whip his mother, he was so angry that his face turned red and his neck thickened. He walked up to Grandma Jiang in three steps and two steps, using his strong body to protect her from the wind and rain.

Jiang Xingsuo was still injured from the previous injury, so he trembled in fright when he saw the yamen servant's whip, and did not dare to move forward. Seeing that his eldest brother and second brother were both in front of him, he immediately stepped aside and joined the team to increase his momentum. .

However, this yamen official was also a stickler. He waved the banknotes Jiang Xingshuo handed him to the ground without even looking at them, completely refusing to accept his flattery.

He glanced at the man who came forward and said with a sneer: "What? Do you think I am an easy person to bribe? Why do you want to bribe me? Are official officials so easy to bribe? Do you want to use this to test official officials? Let me tell you, it's wrong. Even if it’s wrong, it’s right. No one who makes trouble can be exempted from this whip.”

"I put my words here today. None of you can run away today! Are you still here to bribe me? Do I look like a corrupt official? Just come to bribe me. I can't stand people like you who smell like copper all over your body. Got it!"

It has to be said that Jiang Xingshuo's move is really flattering. He is greedy for money, but he is greedy in a good way. No matter how much money he has that obviously violates the regulations, he will not look down on it!

Jiang Xingshuo's face turned pale, and just as he was about to step forward to argue with him, he was frightened back by the whip in his hand.

The yamen servant glanced sideways at him, then looked at the man standing in front of the old woman, and shouted angrily: "What? Are you still playing out a scene of deep love between mother and son in front of me? Let me tell you, I am determined to be drawn today. If you If you don't get out of the way, I'll whip you quickly to see if you dare to do the following."

Jiang Xingyuan was completely unmoved by the government servant's threat. He straightened his neck and stood in front of Grandma Jiang, saying resolutely: "I won't let you beat my mother unless you beat me to death and step on my body." Come over, otherwise I will never get out of the way.”

Grandma Jiang hugged Jiang Mingyan and huddled up behind Boss Jiang. She avoided looking at him and did not dare to look at him.
