Chapter 419 Unexpected Person(3)_1
The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, and the more vigorously she spoke. "I’m telling you, Ma Tongsheng, this road doesn’t belong to your family alone. Why can’t I walk here? I, a fully able person, am assisting an elder to walk. Shouldn’t you make way for us? Oh right, now I remember."
As she spoke, she stared at Ma Zhicai with ill intentions.
Some onlookers intentionally urged her on, "What did you think of?"
"I’ve just remembered who really is blind. It’s none other than this Ma Tongsheng here. Forsaking a golden phoenix for the title of a ’Tongsheng’, I wonder who he’s trying to impress with this act?" Little Miss Pang explained loudly.
Everyone erupted into laughter upon hearing this.
"Ah, no wonder he can only keep the title of Tongsheng with his narrow sight. How could he possibly become a scholar? Is that not right, folks?" Little Miss Pang, seeing the crowd’s support, doubled down on her speech.
"Exactly!" Many people loudly agreed. The villagers who worked at the Lin Family’s place frequently mingled with Lin Changshu and Wu Dayou, and naturally took the Lin Family’s side when issues arose.
Ma Zhicai had never been publicly humiliated like this before. Amidst the crowd’s loud laughter, his face turned beet red — he looked unusually fierce. How dare these peasants laugh at him! Once he becomes a distinguished graduate, he’ll make sure not to spare a single one of them.
Almost all the villagers in Shili Village practiced martial arts. Ma Zhicai’s threatening gaze didn’t intimidate anyone. On the contrary, seeing him enraged made everyone laugh even more.
