Chapter 428 Hu Chong Leaves

"I thought Wang Bu Ren had already reported this to you, Magistrate Hu. How could we possibly know the reason behind this?"

Xu Miaomiao immediately spoke up, adding fuel to the fire.

When he heard the name Wang Bu Ren, Hu Chong was stunned and frowned. Xiao Si beside him heard it and whispered something in his ear. Hu Chong then regained his composure and waved at the two of them: "Okay, I already know about this matter. Wang Bu Ren relied on himself as the richest man and paid more money to be so lawless and didn't even take me seriously. It seems like it's time for me to teach him a lesson."

Hearing Hu Cong's words, Xu Miaomiao smiled with satisfaction. She was most willing to see dogs bite each other.

Seeing that Xu Miaomiao did not say anything, Hu Chong waved his hand and suppressed the matter. The matter was resolved. When Liu Quezi and Village Chief Wang were about to leave, Hu Chong quickly stopped them: "Okay, it's getting late. Since you are all from the same village, why don't you stay at Madam Xu's house for dinner before leaving."

Before Xu Miaomiao, the main person, could say anything, Hu Chong, a guest, took the initiative to keep others. He was really rude. Gu Yuanniang cursed at him. When Xu Miaomiao heard what Tian said, she immediately pushed her and signaled Gu Yuanniang to shut up. Hu Chong was a narrow-minded person. If Hu Chong knew about it and targeted Gu Yuanniang, it would be difficult to deal with.

After receiving Xu Miaomiao's reminder, Gu Yuanniang realized that she had said the wrong thing. She immediately covered her mouth and nodded to her, and the matter was resolved.

Originally, they just wanted to have a simple meal at noon. The children had already eaten, so it was just them at noon. But thinking about it, Xu Miaomiao didn't want to rush around when she saw Erbao, Xiaobao and Ling'er.

Since they were here, I asked the kitchen to cook a few more dishes to entertain the guests.

When all the dishes were brought up, Hu Chong looked around at the dishes with his chopsticks, but in the end he didn't take a bite. He put his chopsticks on the bowl and clicked his tongue twice.

Hu Chong was a high-ranking official here, but he didn't make a move. Xu Miaomiao and the others naturally didn't dare to move either. Seeing his expression, Xu Miaomiao immediately took the initiative to ask, "County Magistrate Hu, is there anything you don't like about this dish? Why don't you move your chopsticks?"

Hu Chong shook his head, looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "Madam Xu, after all, your husband is an official. He also gets paid by the court. How can he eat so poorly? Could it be that he has criticized the people in your house? Is that why you have fallen to this point?"

Hearing this, Xu Miaomiao frowned and looked at the table. There were fish, chicken, shrimp, meat, vegetables and a soup. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like he would treat anyone unfairly, but Hu Zhong actually said so. Hearing this, Xu Miaomiao immediately picked up the wine glass beside her and toasted Hu Chong. "Hu County Magistrate is the most important person in Bai County. Of course, everything is based on you. Naturally, you eat delicacies from the mountains and the sea. The meals of us ordinary people are certainly not as good as yours. I am still wronged today. Hu Zhong first."

Hu Chong raised his eyebrows when he heard this. If it was Xu Miaomiao in the past, she would definitely scold him, but today she was so obedient. However, her appearance also made Hu Chong happy. He raised his wine glass and toasted him: "Okay, in this case, you guys just enjoy your meal. I won't eat for now."

Having said this, he stood up, turned and left.

Xu Miaomiao looked at his leaving figure, without saying anything, but smiled, "Go ahead! As long as Hu Chong wants more, the day of his notoriety will naturally come. By then, she won't have to do anything, there will definitely be many people who want to get rid of him."

Watching the man leave with a big belly, Gu Yuanniang felt relaxed. Just as she was about to go back to the table and pick up the dishes and chopsticks, she saw Liu Quezi and Village Chief Wang sitting opposite her.

Village chief Wang was a little embarrassed and didn't pick up his chopsticks. Liu Quezi, who was standing next to him, was so greedy that he only ate chicken, duck, fish and meat, and didn't even look at the vegetarian dishes on the table.

Seeing this, Xu Miaomiao immediately looked at Village Chief Wang and said, "Village Chief Wang, why don't you eat?"

As she spoke, Xu Miaomiao picked up a piece of fish and put it in Village Chief Wang's bowl. Village Chief Wang immediately picked up his chopsticks, took a bite, looked at Xu Miaomiao apologetically and said, "Madam Xu, I was wrong today. I didn't know that County Magistrate Hu would come today, and we actually ran into them. This is really wrong."

Liu Quezi, who was standing by, heard this and said with dissatisfaction: "Look, he has not agreed to manage the land for us now. Xu Miaomiao, you are really a cheapskate. We begged you so hard at that time, but you refused to do it. How come you agreed as soon as Magistrate Hu said so?"

As Liu Guizi spoke, he looked at the food in front of him and the foam spurting out of his mouth made Xu Miaomiao subconsciously put down her bowl and chopsticks, unwilling to touch the food in front of her.

Gu Yuan's mother also put down her chopsticks. She had been unhappy with the man in front of her for a long time, but because of Hu Chong's presence, she had not fought back. Now that Hu Chong had already left, she wanted to teach Liu Quezi in front of her a lesson. Gu Yuan's mother rolled up her sleeves and smashed the bowl in front of her to the ground.
