Xunmi was probably immune to her husband's antics, so she did not react to her father's … behavior.
"Mighty, can you tell me more about this … Grandpa who looks like a pig's head? What's going on? "
"Our Dragonrock Village and Wuyong County are so peaceful and harmonious. Where did the bandits come from?"
"If there really are bandits, they should have raided the county head's house."
"He hasn't done a single thing in the past few years, and he's even taking public money."
"Big Monkey, tie them up and send them to the county head. Tell him to put in some effort. Don't teach his son to be a tyrant and rob anyone he sees on the streets."
"Don't tell his daughter to learn from her brother. She's a girl and she's shameless enough to rob a man. Does she still want to get married?"
She rambled on as if she was complaining, but every sentence hit the nail on the head. The villagers were shocked beyond words.
They did not expect such a woman to exist. They immediately started whispering among themselves.
"Sigh, I thought our young mistress was fierce enough. I didn't expect the county head's daughter to be so shameless."
"I have to go back and warn my son to stay away from this kind of woman in the future."
"What about my son? He's so handsome. He won't be robbed, right?"
‘...’
After a moment of silence, they were all speechless.
Any family with a son would think that their son was so handsome that they were already planning to arrange a marriage for him.
Cheng He, who finally got up from the ground after the pain subsided, was furious.
"Damn it, damn it, I'm the county head. I'm the county head."
Cheng He stomped his feet. Towards these fools, he simply wanted to annihilate them all.
With a whoosh, everyone's gaze landed on Cheng He, looking at him as if they were looking at a ghost.
Big Monkey's reaction was the most direct. He threw the rag in his hand at Cheng He's face and cursed.
"Pfft, you're the county head? The moment you arrived, you asked our master to hand over our young mistress. You even said that you're going to confiscate our master's property."
"You don't look like a county head. You're a bandit. Every county head knows that our master is taking care of our entire Dragonrock Village."
"You want to confiscate our master's property. Isn't that the same as wanting all of us to die? You're really bad."
"Folks, let's beat him to death first. How dare he impersonate the county head and do such a heartless thing!"
Cheng He, who had once again angered the crowd, was truly afraid this time. He hurriedly dragged Laifu in front of him.
"I'm really the county magistrate, you bunch of ignorant villagers." She was trembling in fear and could not even speak clearly to defend herself.
"I'm going to have the prefectural magistrate throw all of you into jail and hang you up for a beating."
This completely ignited their anger, which had not subsided in the first place, and ignited it completely.
"Fight, regardless of life or death." It was unknown who shouted this, but everyone rushed forward.
The scene was once again a mess. Screams, curses, and pleas for mercy could be heard incessantly.
Yan Mou protected Xunmi and stood under the tree. She looked coldly at the person in the middle who was wailing in pain.
The county magistrate of Wuyong County? Magistrate? It seemed that some people thought that they could do whatever they wanted just because the emperor was far away.
A murderous look flashed across his eyes, which was coincidentally caught by Xunmi.
She rubbed her chin. Her husband's identity didn't seem simple. Could he be a prefectural magistrate or a provincial governor?
Or could he be a royal descendant on a private patrol?
The villagers who were beating him up in full swing were really going all out, regardless of life or death. Several of Cheng He's teeth were knocked out.
His right arm hung unnaturally by his side. His nose was crooked, and one side of his mustache was torn off. His clothes were of an unrecognizable shape. These were all examples of what it meant to be miserable.
At this moment, he couldn't make any sound from his mouth. He could only open and close his mouth.
One of his eyes was big and the other was small. Just looking at it made one sigh.
"It's about time. Everyone, stop. It's not good if we really beat him to death. After all, our Dragonrock Village is so clean."
"It's better not to leave such a filthy thing behind. He must be full of resentment."
Xunmi spoke up, which meant that Cheng He didn't die. However, based on Cheng He's character, he definitely wouldn't be satisfied.
But she wasn't worried at all. It was obvious that this person would play himself to death.
"Miss is right. Let's throw them out of the village."
The group of people didn't give Cheng He and the others a chance to speak. Each of them carried one of them and left.
Xunmi watched them come and go in a hurry. It was really … a good show.
"Daughter, this county head has been beaten up so badly by us. He'll definitely come back. What do you think we should do next?"
Qiu Zhihao quickly put the pipe back into his mouth and took a puff.
Xunmi looked at the pipe that her cheapskate father said was broken a moment ago. Now, white smoke was coming out of it. His expression was a little twisted.
"Father, you're already so old. Can't you stop for a while?"
Damn, she finally understood why the original owner of this body was so tired of her father, yet instinctively protected him.
Damn, he's just an old urchin. It's really hard on the original owner of this body.
Qiu Zhihao pouted. How could he not stop? He wanted to retort, but then he realized that there was a pipe in his mouth.
And … this pipe seemed to be the one that he said was broken. _ (: з ̄ ∠) _
Ah, ah, ah, he had been exposed. Would his daughter despise him again?
Even though he seems to dislike his daughter a lot too. ~ (̄ Д ̄)
He quietly took out the pipe and put it behind him. His round face became even rounder when he put on a flattering smile.
Xunmi held her forehead helplessly. "Forget it. Let's forget about it."
"Let's get down to business, father. Don't worry about the county head. Everyone in town can prove the truth. That is, the people above …"
She stopped here. Every world would automatically fill in the gaps. Therefore, if there was a landlord, there would be a magistrate, and there would also be generals and emperors with higher positions.
It was true that higher officials could oppress people to death. It would be fine if she was here. But if she wasn't, what would her cheapskate father do?
"Xunxun, don't worry. I'll protect you and our father. I won't let anyone bully you."
Yan Mou said immediately. He wanted to let the beauty know how powerful he was. Humph, he was just a lowly magistrate. Who would dare to be presumptuous?
XunMi cast a sidelong glance at her husband. Her husband's status really wasn't low.
Qiu Zhihao was dumbfounded. He didn't even hide his pipe. He pointed at Yan Mou and stuttered.
"You … you … what did you just call me?"
"Father." Yan Mou thought that he didn't agree. He immediately patted his chest and promised, "Father, don't worry. I'll love Xunxun and protect her like my life."
Qiu Zhihao saw the man's promise. He turned and took Xunmi's hand. He said excitedly, "Wow … Daughter, you finally have someone who wants you."
