Chapter 486 Same caliber

As soon as the old patriarch said these words, everyone became really quiet. After a moment of silence, he told them all the news they got on the street.

“That’s what happened. It was clearly Li Zheng’s promise to provide us with food to tide us over. Everyone was so grateful that they came here with everything in hand.”

"Now you don't admit it. You have already gained a good reputation. We are so grateful that we can't wait to offer you three sticks of incense a day. Now we want to turn our backs and deny it, but that won't work."

As soon as these words came out, Baiyun Pine exploded immediately.

At this time, he no longer cared about the issue of self-cultivation and face, and directly pointed at them and yelled.

“You guys are farting, when did I promise to let you borrow food? You are making up these things that are not true at all.”

 The unruly people were indeed unruly people, and he was really angry to death.

"I finally understand. You guys are trying to rely on me. It's really disappointing. I consider myself to be an upright person for more than a year, and I've treated you well. It's just that you guys joined forces to block my door a few days ago. , broke into my yard together again today, what’s the difference between them and robbers?”

“I’m warning you now, get out quickly, otherwise I will report you to the official immediately and arrest you one by one to do hard labor.”

At this moment, the door of the east room opened, and Bai Anbang appeared at the door with a serious face.

"You stupid people, my father worked hard for you and wanted to let you spend this winter safely, but in the end he raised a pack of white-eyed wolves."

"I tell you, if you don't retreat quickly, once you report to the official, none of you will be able to escape. At the very least, you will be sentenced to the crime of provoking trouble and you will be forced to do hard labor. You will not be able to escape."

The people in the yard were scolded by Bai Anbang, and some of them were timid and their faces turned pale. However, they couldn't help but there were so many people coming. Although they were nervous, there were still some who were unwilling to give in.

"Bai Anbang, you kid, as a scholar, why don't you have any manners at all? We are also elders after all, don't scholars value face the most?"

"That's right. I heard that you have a good talent for reading, and you will be an official sooner or later. It's not good to be so careless about your reputation."

Hearing the threatening tone of those people, Bai Anbang's face darkened, he squinted and stared at them coldly.

 “Are you threatening me?”

"I don't dare. I just said that you scholars are sensible. We just want you to help with some food rations. We don't have any bad intentions. Besides, this is what Li Zheng promised."

"You can't just turn your back on us and deny your credit when our people come. That's not how things work."

 When the old patriarch heard this, he already understood in his heart.

 He narrowed his eyes and scolded,

"Okay, I understand what you mean, old man. If you want to solve the problem, don't make trouble. Just answer whatever I ask you."

 Everyone was still a little in awe of the old patriarch. As soon as he opened his mouth, no one dared to refute him.

 Besides, they just wanted to come here to ask for food, and they didn’t want to really get into trouble with the Lizheng family.

Looking at everyone’s attitude, the old patriarch knocked on the pipe pot again.

“Who told you about Yunsong’s promise to help everyone solve the food problem?”

Hearing the old patriarch’s question, everyone was stunned.

“Everyone says so, is it still true?”

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded in agreement.

“Don’t worry, uncle, we swore that we would never lie. If Li Zheng hadn’t promised it himself, we wouldn’t have come.”
