The "patient" who was originally lying on the reed mat groaning, saw his companion getting in trouble, and he jumped up and tried to help, not looking weak or seriously ill at all.

This contrast further confirmed the fact that the victim was trying to extort money, causing the people watching the excitement to talk about it.

Seeing the two men rushing towards her with ferocious faces, Su Qingluan quickly stepped back.

Su Guangfu and Yang were so frightened that they quickly grabbed their daughter's sleeves and tried to pull her behind them.

However, the other party acted suddenly, and the three members of the Su family had no idea that in broad daylight, they would not only not get away with what they had done, but would even want to commit murder. Therefore, they were unable to react.

He was a step too slow, and the burly man with bull eyes was already two steps away from Su Qingluan.

When she saw the other party raising his fist, she thought, "Oh no!"

But he still subconsciously bent his body, protected his head and closed his eyes.

It was pitch black in front of her eyes. Su Qingluan only heard a "whoosh" sound as if an evil wind was blowing in her ears, and then she seemed to vaguely hear two soft "pa, pa" sounds.

Then there were two heavy landing sounds, "Plop!" "Plop!", followed by a muffled groan and another scream.

The expected pain did not fall on her body. Su Qingluan opened her eyes curiously, and then widened her eyes in surprise: "Ah? What's going on?"

She only closed her eyes and opened them again, in just a breath at most, and the scene before her eyes changed drastically.

The burly man with bull eyes who had been rushing towards her with a ferocious look on his face now fell face down in the mud.

Because the road surface was compacted loess, his strong and heavy body suddenly slammed down, stirring up a thick layer of dust that filled his eyes, nose and mouth.

Now he kept spitting out the dust in his mouth and wiping his eyes. He was truly "covered in dust and dirt" and looked very embarrassed.

The thinner man following behind also happened to fall forward, and his abdomen landed on the elbow joint of the strong man in front that was supporting the ground.

This time he didn't need to show off his acting skills. He looked pale and sweaty, howling like a pig about to be slaughtered.

Su Qingluan turned around with a puzzled look in her head and asked, "Dad, Mom, how did they fall?"

Yang and Su Guangfu were still dragging Su Qingluan, and they were also shaking their heads in shock.

At this time, the ox-eyed strong man seemed to be struggling to get up. Su Qingluan cautiously stepped back a few steps, but saw him fall back with a "gulp".

As if he didn't believe it, the man tried twice more, but even though beads of sweat the size of beans were dripping down his forehead, he was like a reptile crawling on the ground and couldn't stand up no matter what.

"Legs, why are my legs numb?!" The strong man lay on the ground with a look of horror on his face.

When the people around saw that the strong man couldn't get up, they all mocked him:

"Hahaha, evil will be punished! My legs look so handsome, don't they?"

"I think God has opened his eyes!"

"Did anyone report this to the police? Scoundrels like these should be arrested, beaten, and jailed!"

While everyone was discussing this, someone outside yelled, "The police are coming! Everyone, make way!"

Su Qingluan looked in the direction of the sound and saw the skinny monkey sticking his head out from between the crowd, shouting at the top of his lungs while trying to push away the people who were gathered in front of him to watch the fun.

When everyone heard that the officials had arrived, they hurriedly made way for an aisle on both sides like a tide, and then they saw Skinny Monkey leading six officials in black uniforms with swords on their waists walking towards them.

The leading officer shouted, "Who is causing trouble again?!"

The skinny monkey quickly pointed at the two people crawling on the ground like maggots and said, "Sir, these two are the ones causing trouble for this stall!"

"Officer, it was these two who wanted to extort money!" Aunt Yang was the first to rush out to testify.

With Sister Yang starting the conversation, the other onlookers also started talking:

"The Su family is an honest business family and has never caused any trouble!"

"Sir, the evidence of the false accusation is still scattered on the ground..."

"Sir, the Su family is truly wronged..."

Before the three parties involved in the Su family could speak, the other enthusiastic onlookers could not help but start talking and "complaining".

"Silence!" The leading officer shouted loudly, and everyone around him fell silent.

Then he looked at the three members of the Su family: "Who is in charge of this stall?"

Su Qingluan wanted to take a step forward, but was pulled back by Su Guangfu, who bowed and whispered, "It's me."

The leading officer winked behind him, and the following officers filed into the crowd, dragging up the two men on the ground in groups of two.

The leading officer glanced at Su Guangfu again and said, "Although you are the victim, you must come with us."

Su Qingluan understood that no matter where or how the case was tried, both parties had to be present.

Su Guangfu bowed his head and saluted the official: "I understand."

Then he turned to Yang and his daughter and nodded slightly: "I'll be back soon." After saying that, he turned around and followed the official.

Yang patted her daughter's hand and whispered comfortingly, "Don't worry, our county magistrate is a reasonable person and will not wrongly accuse your father."

Su Qingluan nodded, and then she and Yang thanked Aunt Yang and Skinny Monkey.

"Well, we are all ordinary people. What's the big deal if we help each other?" Aunt Yang said with a hearty laugh.

"That's right!" Skinny Monkey said with a grin, "My mother was originally from Huaxi Village, but later married and moved to the county town. So, by that calculation, I'm half a fellow villager with you!"

"That's right, my sister and I were from the same family five hundred years ago!" Aunt Yang took Yang's hand and patted it affectionately.
