Chapter 349: Chapter 349: Still longing for Tong Sanlang!

“No trouble?” Tong Tiehu snorted coldly, “Everyone else is lining up without a single complaint. Who do you think you are to skip in front of them? Are you superior to our fellow villagers?”
“In essence, isn’t you just a shrewd countrywoman? What’s there to be proud of?”
“Your son Xiaowu is a favorite of General Cen, but so what? Does he hold any office or any rank? Hoping to queue jump without a word? On what ground?”
Indeed, those in power do have privileges compared to ordinary folks.
Take his family, the Tong Family, for example. Although he is only a trivial village chief, the lowest ranking official in Daqi, his family gets to avoid ten percent of the taxes, and they never have to line up to pay them.
But what about the Sun Family?
Just because Sun Junyan has gained favor with Cen Hong, they expect privileges too?
Dream on.
“If you want to skip the line, state Sun Junyan’s position. Otherwise, move to the back.” Tong Tiehu said coldly.
He could easily guess why Sun Junyan was able to cozy up to Cen Hong. It must be because he is not fond of Qiao Xiaomai.
Gaining favor from Cen Hong for such a reason, huh, let’s see how long that lasts.
The Sun Family’s mother looked at Tong Tiehu’s familiar stern face, dumbstruck.
Her son Xiaowu currently only runs errands for Cen Hong; he doesn’t have any official title.
But even without a title, her son Xiaowu is still a favorite of Cen Hong.
What’s that saying? Even the gatekeeper in a minister’s house is a seventhrank official, far more powerful than a county head.
Although her son Xiaowu doesn’t hold an official title, he is still a favorite in front of a second-rank official, and he can speak to Cen Hong directly!
If the same scenario were to happen to other village chiefs, they would certainly cater to her tax payment needs without any complaints.
But this Tong Tiehu, he doesn’t have basic social courtesies! Not only doesn’t he seek to do favors for her, but he also tries to threaten and confront her!
So intent to challenge her identity, it’s infuriating!
“Humph, what’s the big fuss about jumping the line to pay tax? It’s just a minor matter; you are overreacting, Chief Tong.” She snorted unhappily.
“I’m just being impartial here.”
“If you offend General Cen, you won’t have many good days ahead!”
“Take her away.” Upon hearing the threat, Tong Tiehu’s face turns even colder. He turns his gaze to Tong Sanlang.
Tong Sanlang puts down the bag of wheat in his hand, steps forward, reaches out to grab the Sun Family’s mother’s shoulder, getting ready to drag her aside.
Seeing Tong Sanlang, a chill runs down the Sun family’s mother’s spine.
She remembers the last time he cornered her. Tong Sanlang is an expert at martial arts, she cannot handle him.
Taking a deep breath, she huffs, “Tong Sanlang! My family’s circumstances have turned around big time now, we’re no longer the inferior folks we used to be. If you’ve changed your mind and are willing to marry Meipan, I’m ready to let bygones be bygones and ask Xiaowu to put in good words for you to General Cen.”
“You have great skills, if you catch General Cen’s attention and join the military, reaching the top would be a matter of time!”
As the words came out, while Tong Sanlang remained unaffected, Qiao Xiaomai sat up straight.
What the hell!
This old shrew is still eyeing Tong Sanlang!
This is absolutely intolerable!
Without a moment’s hesitation, she placed the lotus leaf on the ox cart. She couldn’t just throw it away as it was folded by Tong Sanlang.
“Sun Family’s mother, since your family is doing so well now, why are you still thinking about Tong Sanlang? He’s just a country young man, in what way is he good enough for your Qiao Meipan? Your Qiao Meipan should be matched with a high official!”
