I can’t thank you enough…”
Xie Wan had encountered many situations in the past year where she was chased and blocked by the crowd, but she had always been outside before, and she was agile and usually managed to escape.
This is the first time I’m stuck in traffic like today.
She was dizzy and sweating from everyone's excessive enthusiasm, and her sleeve was torn.
Sichuan people are passionate and outgoing. Especially in this era, good officials generally do not have much authority and mingle with the masses. The masses also know that they will not be punished for their enthusiasm, so when they express their true feelings and want to thank Xie Wan, it is really a bit overwhelming.

Xie Wan refused one by one, but the crowd became enthusiastic and really went all out, not much different from a fight.
The car entered the town and there were still two stops to the county government, but Xie Wan jumped out of the car in a panic.
Just when she was congratulating herself for running away quickly enough and avoiding the army of gift-givers, she found a string of red peppers hanging around her neck. She really did not know whether to laugh or cry.
