Chapter 365 The Dog Official’s Family Arrives
The four women of the two officials, along with their servants, wanted to sneak into Taoyuan Lane, then go into the locked house and catch the adulterer.
Who would have thought that as soon as they reached the alley entrance, they would find that it was completely blocked, with no room to squeeze in. However, more and more people were pouring in, and it was impossible to exit.
"You bunch of troublemakers, get out of the way quickly. Can't you see our lady is coming?"
The servants and maids were used to being overbearing because of their official status. Today, the mistress made each of them carry a stick, and their behavior was even more arrogant.
When they saw the people in rags and without food, they would stare at them with ferocious eyes. When they heard the curses of the unlucky people, they would ignore them and even pretend to swing sticks.
"What a bastard lady! You're just relying on someone else's power to show off your power in our Taoyuan Alley."
Someone immediately couldn't stand it anymore.
Taking advantage of the large crowd and the chaotic situation, it was difficult to be recognized. A burly man nearby immediately lost his patience, snatched the stick from one of the servants, and kicked him twice.
Normally they were the ones who bullied others, but now when they saw their own people being beaten, the other maids and servants lost their patience and wanted to step forward to help and catch the man.
The man took a stick and hit the heads of those people, hitting one here and one there, making the servants scream. Even though they all had sticks in their hands, they couldn't gain any advantage, and the scene was in chaos.
The timid people hurried to make way, but most people refused to do so, and it was unlikely that anyone would help them.
Who cares about the rich and the poor when they are just watching the fun? Even if they give way to the rich, they won't be given a bite to eat. Usually they are high and mighty, not treating them as human beings, and they can't beat or scold them. Now they have been given the opportunity.
So some people took the opportunity to push the servants, the old women pulled their hair, or kicked people when they saw them approaching, making them fall to the ground.
After a while, the arrogant and domineering old woman and servant were pushed to the ground and completely submerged in the crowd.
Now even the timid ones were ignored and took the opportunity to rush forward. I kicked them, you punched you, and I vented all the anger that I had felt in my heart for the past two years on these people.
"Look at you, you're so arrogant! Look at you, you're so arrogant! The officials are bullying men and women, making life miserable for the people. You watchdogs are also taking advantage of the power of others. You will all die a miserable death."
"If you ask me, I should just throw them all together and let them stab each other."
"Yes, yes, they deserve it. Let them be like those two officials inside, strip naked and fight each other, and even fight and kill each other among their own family."
"Hahaha! Don't they like to share women? Tie these servants and maids together and let them learn from their masters."
There were many hooligans in the crowd. Once they started talking, they started to joke and curse more, and even confused them with the two corrupt officials inside.
These four women had never seen such a scene before, and when they saw that something was wrong, they were immediately dumbfounded. Mrs. Cui was protected by her maid and took a few steps back, hoping to temporarily avoid these crazy untouchables.
Who wants to hear the gossip in the crowd about the two officials, and hear that the two officials and two women were naked in a room doing that kind of thing, and there was talk of stabbing each other and blood all over the floor? The more you listen, the more you feel something is wrong, and your heart goes cold.
One of the concubines exclaimed, "Are they talking about our master?"
The other thought more and more that it resembled them, and then, as if startled, he exclaimed, "They said they were wearing official uniforms! And now the two masters are gone. Who else could it be but them? Why would any official show up in this alley?"
Among the four, only Mrs. Cui still retained a little rationality. She originally wanted to retreat and think of a solution, but it was too late to cover their mouths.
The people in the crowd were busy pushing and fighting, so naturally they couldn't hear what was happening over here. It was just too noisy.
But there are so many people here, and those who are timid and dare not go out to fight have retreated to the back. There are many people who are ragged and skinny, and many of them like to gossip.
They had long been disgusted with the women crowded among them, dressed in luxurious clothes. Furthermore, these women were calling servants and maids names, and were very disgusted with the common people who approached them. Just now, when they faced them with their mouths and noses covered, their eyes were full of disgust. Their hatred for officials and the rich immediately emerged, and they wished these people would die immediately.
If they hear any clues, it means they have caught something, and they will never let it go.
Someone in the crowd immediately started shouting, "The families of those two bastard officials are here! Haha, they're the real wives too. They must be here to carry the corpses."
"Let them in to see how those two bastards died, and see if those swords are sharp enough. If they don't die, they might give them a couple more stabs. Haha!"
"There's going to be a good show to watch. Let them go in and see whether they finish off the official first or kill those two women first!"
"Yes, let them in. Make way quickly, make way quickly. The dog official's family is here."
As the crowd erupted in discussion, the fights in front of them ceased. Everyone who had been hoping to watch the excitement in the room now turned their gazes towards them. Their faces ranged from gloating to resentment, but not a trace of sympathy remained.
Mrs. Cui wanted to hide behind them, but she couldn't. Even if she wanted to stay where she was, she couldn't do it because someone was pushing them from behind, forcing them to move forward.
At this point, they only knew it was over. Whether their master was dead or alive was irrelevant. Their own safety was paramount, and they worried about whether they could return home. They had no time to listen to the gossip and rumors about their masters spread among the people.
