The advisor was so angry his beard almost stood on end!

His wife always treated him with utmost respect and deference. If the water he prepared for washing his feet was too hot or too cold, he would berate her and make her change the whole basin. He had never seen such a vulgar and unreasonable woman before.

How dare they mock him for marrying a man? This is an immense insult to him!

He looked at Magistrate Wu beside him, so angry that he was incoherent: "Your Honor, look at this woman! She's utterly disrespectful! She doesn't act like a woman at all. If she's caught, she must be severely punished as a warning to others!"

Magistrate Wu frowned even more deeply and looked even more displeased as he looked at his clerk, whose voice was trembling with anger.

The advisor is truly useless.

He was the one who spoke first, but instead of the other person getting angry, he got furious.

He didn't care what was said, only the result. The result was that the woman on the lookout tower won easily. Although she was a woman, she should not be underestimated.

"Master, calm down. Can't you see she's deliberately trying to provoke you?"

The advisor wanted to say that he couldn't stay calm!

This country woman dared to say that he married a man; that's an insult to him!

"Master, I must catch this wicked woman today! I'll show her what I'm capable of."

Magistrate Wu remained firm: "Wait a minute."

Bai Ziqian, standing on the lookout tower, chuckled foolishly as he watched his advisor's face turn red with anger.

Not only was Aunt Shuiqing not angry, she actually made the other person so angry that they ran around in a panic. She was really something.

No wonder his father always made him learn from Aunt Shuiqing. He could benefit from her calm and steady mindset for life!

Shui Qing looked at the anxious look on the other side of the clerk, who wanted to attack but couldn't make a decision, and felt that it was still a little short of time.

Yes, she did it on purpose.

Intentionally provoke or anger the other party, hoping to provoke them into attacking!

The enemy, excluding Magistrate Wu, his advisor, and servants, still has 180 men. If we launch another attack, we'll lose about 100 men, and the rest will be no threat.

Otherwise, it will always be a scourge.

Furthermore, it would be most appropriate to concentrate this attack at the front gate. If they were to scatter and sneak in from some hidden corner, a head-on confrontation would be risky and could result in injury. There's also the risk that they might wander around to the back mountain, where there are still quite a few rabbits.

Even if it's just a little rascal with not much meat, it's still heartbreaking to see it slaughtered by Huo Huo.

An idea immediately came to mind, but it would be safer to wait until Wenhua and the others returned to the village.

The two sides stood in a stalemate for a while. One side was calm and composed, while the other side was so angry that the clerk was pacing around in circles. Magistrate Wu just watched coldly, seemingly lost in thought.

Shui Qing caught a glimpse of Wen Hua running towards her out of the corner of her eye. Seeing him give her a reassuring gesture, she finally felt at ease.

Then Li Wen, Wu Laoda, and five or six other men ran over, and everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

The eight or nine men immediately returned to their original positions, ready to go.

Shui Qingchao gave everyone a ready gesture, and seeing that they had accepted it, he then looked at Magistrate Wu opposite him, preparing to add the final push.
