And in this world, what was easier to control than the ignorant people?
All sorts of thoughts flashed through Zhang Lin's mind. No wonder scholars had such a high status in ancient times. Shaking his head, he turned around and walked into the inner courtyard. Minister Lu looked at him and said with a livid face,
"W-what are you doing?"
"It's nothing. To be honest, I've never lived in a woodshed before. I want to give it a try.”To be honest, I've never lived in a woodshed before. I want to try it.
Minister Lu was dumbfounded. He had thought that the rustic young boy in front of him would have thousands of excuses to shirk off, but he never thought that he would actually reveal such a sentence. The face under the round minister's hat turned ashen, and a sense of humiliation from being looked down upon by a lower class arose spontaneously. That's right, it was a sense of humiliation!
What was this?
This was bringing honor to the ancestors, this was the ancestors giving off green smoke!
It could be said that ever since Official Lu's eldest son started studying, Official Lu had treated his family as a scholarly family. They were completely different from those people in the Lu Family Village who only knew how to farm and hunt. They were scholars, scholars who were superior to others, noble people!
And now, this lowly person in front of him actually dared to ignore his request?
This was simply courting death!
"Stop right there, young man. I think you're still young. There are some things that you should think about clearly. You have to know that a man is innocent, but his wealth will bring him trouble!”
Minister Lu shook his head and pretended to say the words 'an innocent man will be punished for his treasure'. His eyes were fixed on Zhang Lin. These words were an idiom! As expected, it made him feel like he was a scholar.
How was it? You must be shocked, right? This official knows how to speak idioms!
It was no wonder that Minister Lu was so smug. In an era where reading knowledge was monopolized, it was already an amazing thing for ordinary people to be able to say one or two idioms, let alone in this deep mountain forest, the Lu Family Village.
Unfortunately, Minister Lu's pretense was destined to be useless. Who was Zhang Lin? He came from the new era. He was not very smart, but he had at least gone through nine years of compulsory education.
Idiom... Was it very rare?
Looking at the smug Minister Lu, Zhang Lin rolled his eyes and pretended not to know anything.
"A common man should not get drunk? Drunken with jade? I understand now. Minister is talking about drinking. It's the common man who isn't drunk, but Huai Bi is already drunk. Sigh, if you ask me, alcohol tolerance is something that needs to be practiced. Don't be afraid of getting drunk, just continue drinking after you vomit. You'll get used to it after drinking…"
Rotten wood can't be carved!
Minister Lu's eyes widened. He never expected Zhang Lin to say such a thing. What drinking? Drunk or not? He was really playing the lute to a cow. Rotten wood could not be carved. He waved his hand angrily at the servant beside him and said,
"Get lost, get lost, bring him to the woodshed, get lost!”
The servant hurriedly brought Zhang Lin, who was pretending to be innocent, to the most dilapidated woodshed. In the Lu Manor, Minister Lu was the head of the family. He had the power to kill these servants who were sold as slaves. No one dared to touch Minister Lu's bad luck!
Minister Lu's face was ashen as he gritted his teeth. The precious bowl in Zhang Lin's hand that could reflect sunlight flashed across his eyes as he revealed a cold smile.
What a laughable fellow.
He refused a toast only to drink a forfeit!
If he obediently handed over the treasured bowl, perhaps he would be given some benefits and everyone would be happy. However, since this young boy did not know how to appreciate favors, then he would let him know whose territory this was!
This was the Lu Family Village!
He was the richest and most powerful Minister Lu in the Lu Family Village. In this small piece of land, he was the law, he was the emperor! He opened his mouth and roared,
"Dog Three, Dog Three, where the hell did you go?”
