Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious
Chapter 591: Shocking Panic
Even if the prince came for a normal visit, he would go through the side door.
So, this family, dressed in ordinary civilian clothes with a few patches on them, dared to knock rudely on the main door of a wealthy family. The first reaction of passers-by was that they were crazy.
Isn't this looking for death?
The Musang couple didn't understand what the passerby meant. Isn't knocking on the door a normal thing? But to make such a big deal out of it was like the sky was falling.
The two of them quickly realized that the city people were timid and cautious living in the capital, unlike the country people who were decisive, generous and open-minded.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt superior and knocked on the door even harder.
"Hello, is anyone home?"
"We have something else to do and can't delay too long. Open the door quickly."
This was a marquis's mansion with great prestige and status. When they heard the knocks on the door as violent as a rainstorm, the whole family panicked.
Generally, only when the royal family is questioning people or conducting a search, the inner army or the imperial guards will knock on the main gate so rudely. As soon as the door is opened, there is a team of people coming to arrest people in an aggressive manner. This family has always been peaceful, so how could something happen suddenly? Logically speaking, there are people in the court, so they should have received some news in advance.
So, the whole family, young and old, stared at each other, not daring to breathe.
Everyone's eyes fell on the old man's face. At times like this, the old man was the backbone.
The old man was over sixty years old and a fourth-rank official. He had seen countless storms and waves. He calmed himself down, straightened his clothes, and walked out.
"I, old man, consider myself to be upright and honest. I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding. I will cooperate with the investigation. Everyone, please don't panic."
The whole family felt a little relieved and followed the old man.
Seeing that no one had come out of this house for a long time, Mu Lao San thought that this was most likely Mu Xinghe's home. He was afraid that he had recognized his voice and didn't want to come out to recognize him as his third uncle.
He sneered, Mu Xinghe, I caught you, let’s see where you can hide.
So, I just yelled at the top of my lungs, "Stop dilly-dallying! If you don't open the door, I'll kick it in."
The old man's heart skipped a beat, and he staggered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, someone around him supported him in time.
The royal family would give face to the high-ranking officials who were about to be investigated. If they had to kick the door, it meant that the crime was very serious and would not be easily forgiven. No matter how high or low the family was, the whole family would be exiled.
The old man's steps began to tremble as he thought carefully about his forty years of experience as an official. He had done some dirty things, but they were not so serious. There were many people who were dirtier than him. At least, he had never made any mistakes of principle.
Before he even reached the door, the old man was already unwilling to accept it. Why did this have to happen to him?
Standing inside the main gate, feeling the banging and kicking sounds outside, as if it were the death-demanding sound from hell, the old man closed his eyes and tried hard to calm himself down.
Let's see what the situation is. The worst that can happen is death.
"Butler, open the door."
Except for half a year ago when my granddaughter got married and was carried out from here, this main gate has never been opened.
The main gate was very heavy. After removing the latch, three people stood on each side before it was slowly opened with great difficulty. Zhu Jia's heart was in his throat.
The child felt the tense atmosphere and opened his mouth to cry, but the adult covered his mouth.
However, the situation outside was fully revealed, and the Zhu family did not see the imperial guards or the internal army on high alert.
There was only a shabby-dressed couple standing outside the door, their faces pale and as if they were ready to accuse someone.
The Zhu family thought they were seeing things, and after checking carefully, they found that there was no one else but this couple who looked very unintelligent.
Before the Zhu family could speak, Mu Lao San looked them over carefully and didn't recognize a single face.
"So that's not it. I knocked on the wrong door. Wife, let's go ask the next one."
Mu Lao San's wife also grumbled to vent her dissatisfaction: "I've been knocking on the door for so long that my hands are sore, and the result is not what we expected. Why don't you open the door earlier? You made us work so hard."
The two clapped their hands and were about to leave, completely ignoring the terrifying panic they had brought to the Zhu family.
Old Master Zhu's face was so gloomy that raindrops seemed to be dripping from it. Before he could say anything, the Zhu family's guards rushed out and surrounded Mu Lao San and the other man.
"What are you doing? Bullying the common people?" Mu Lao San felt nervous but said in a firm tone.
"We were just looking for someone and knocked on the wrong door. Are you so unreasonable? Besides, you opened the door late and wasted our time, but we didn't even bother with you." The daughter-in-law Zhou stamped her feet in anger: "Get out of the way, all of you! It's almost dark and we haven't settled down yet. Be careful that we won't leave your house."
As he spoke, he went to push the guard.
The security guard slapped her in the face and knocked her to the ground.
Zhou's cheeks were swollen, and blood was coming out of the corners of her mouth and ears.
"Master, these two have no idea where they came from and have no respect for etiquette. It would be better to kill them and throw them into a mass grave. They can't knock on the main gate of a high-ranking family at will."
What? He was going to be beheaded just for knocking on the door. Mu Lao San and his wife thought they had misheard. It was so scary.
"We knocked on the wrong door, and you want to kill us? This is unheard of. You are so cruel and ruthless, you are not worthy of being a noble family. Come and see, the noble family is brutal and bullies the innocent and poor people." Mu Lao San's face was pale, and he shouted unyieldingly, like a fighter against injustice in the world.
As soon as he finished speaking, a guard flew up and kicked him several times.
Old Master Zhu thought of his eldest granddaughter-in-law who had just given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, and was still in confinement after childbirth and couldn't stand the sight of blood.
Besides, this pair of stupid villagers have no civilized minds at all. If I really kill them, it will seem that I am of the same level as them.
Sensing something, he looked into the distance and saw someone knocking on the main doors of other high gates, behaving in the same way as this couple, just as rude and impolite.
Originally, Mr. Zhu was very unhappy. Seeing that other wealthy families had the same fate, he was afraid that many of them would open the main gate in a panic like the Zhu family. Thinking of this, Mr. Zhu felt balanced, and most of his unhappiness disappeared.
So he said, "The Zhu family doesn't bother with such vulgar people, lest they lower the status of the family. We will punish them and throw them away."
The security guard beat the couple with his fists and feet, making them scream and beg for mercy.
In front of a tall gate not far away, Mu Laoer and his wife, as well as their two sons, were thrown onto the street and beaten with sticks.
"We were just looking for someone, why are you hitting us? It's so unreasonable. The capital really is a place where people are eaten without blinking an eye."
"If you break something, you have to pay for the medicine. Is there any law under the emperor's feet?"
"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me. If you hit me again, I'm going to die. Ouch, it hurts so much."
They threatened and begged for mercy, but it was of no use. Instead, they were beaten even more violently.
