Chapter 471: Stay
Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions
This was not the first time Top Schr had done this. Those who came to the prefecture city to study were mostly new county schrs.
In those countryside ces, the county schr could be considered a powerful figure and was respected.
But in the prefecture capital, it was nothing.
In the prefecture capital, county schrs were also divided into different ranks. Most people had limited family assets.
Family without money could barely provide for a single student.
If an ordinary person wanted to be a county schr, it would take at least seven to eight years. If they wanted to take another step forward, they had to continue studying.
Top Schr had investigated the backgrounds of every student. If there was an official in the family, they definitely could not be touched. Since they were all officials, they naturally had to protect each other.
If it was an ordinary family, they had to pay heftily to live here.
Wang Chuangui was a student who didn’t know how to give gifts. The students in the academy had already given him gifts one after another. Only he was unwilling to give any more than the stipted gifts.
Instead, he gave that dpidated official of the Ministry of Rites a set of clothes!
How could Top Schr tolerate this?
He ordered someone to investigate Wang Chuangui’s background. He was just a person from the countryside, and it was an incredibly poor area.
He was only a county schr in his thirties. In the future, he would probably not be able to pass the exam.
The only eye-catching thing was probably his rmendation from the local county magistrate.
However, the county magistrate’s rmendation was amon thing. It was nothing great.
In that poor corner of Yongding County, it was already not bad if there was a county schr. The county magistrate must have been given a title casually.
With this in mind, Top Schr used his usual trick. Seeing that Wang Chuangui did not react and had even begged bitterly…
Top Schr was even more relieved. It’s confirmed. He’s from an unfounded dpidated family.
A dpidated family only meant that he did not have a backer, but his food and clothing were notcking. He even brought his wife to study with him. It could be seen that his family was not too poor.
Scalping 1,000 taels from him should be just the amount a family like theirs could withstand.
Unexpectedly, he had kicked an iron te.
While Wang Chuangui was still in a daze, Madam Ma had already gone to the prison and told Wang Chuangui dreamily, “Husband, Mother is here to pick us up!”
Wang Chuangui’s first reaction was to cover his butt.
If his mother found out that he had studied himself into prison, he would probably be beaten up!
“Why is Mother here?” Wang Chuangui did not know that Top Schr had already sent a letter to the Wang Family. He himself was unwilling to write back to ask for money.
“I’m not sure either. 1 was about to go back and look for Mother to think of a solution when I saw someone capture the professor and Top Schr,” Madam Ma said in a daze. She looked at the mud-like Top Schr at the side and her fear of him dissipated.
The more arrogant this Top Schr was previously, the more pitiful he looked now.
He had been ordered to ask Wang Chuangui for forgiveness. If Wang Chuangui did not forgive him, his crime would be increased.
Wang Chuangui hurriedly asked, “What about Teacher Song? Is he fine?”
“Teacher Song is fine. He’s just been locked up for too long and his health isn’t good. He’s already been sent to the medical center. I’ve already gone to visit him previously. He said that his body is fine and he’ll be back to full health after resting for a few<sup>7</sup> days.” Madam Ma sighed. “1 didn’t expect that after this matter, not only did Teacher Song not me us for dragging him down, he’s also very concerned about you.”
Teacher Song specialized in teaching strategies. This was also Wang Chuangui’s weakness. However, Teacher Song valued hisprehension ability and often taught him everything.
It was precisely because of this that Madam Ma specially made a set of clothes for him to express her gratitude.
Unexpectedly, it harmed him instead.
“Student Wang, can you forgive me now?” Top Schr’s weak voice came from the other end.
Wang Chuangui looked over and saw that Top Schr had already stuck his neck into the noose and was hanging himself.
There was still a fawning smile on his face.
Wang Chuangui suddenly felt nauseous and almost vomited on the spot.
If in the future, when he became an official, if he would turn out like this, bullying the weak and fearing the strong, he would rather not be an official.
At most, he would return to Hu Family Vige to teach..
