Chapter 67 Rogue Officer
At this time, everyone in the exile team was preparing to set off. The Prince of Qingping's Mansion was considered to be efficient and was singled out entirely due to personal grudges.
Cheng Weiyao had become numb to the discriminatory treatment from the officials, and would throw dirty water on the Qingping Palace whenever she got the slightest chance.
The team set out early in the morning, and the officers split into two groups: one group led the men in the front, while the other leisurely drove the women. Relatively speaking, the women were easier to manage, so several officers began to have some fun behind the scenes.
"I feel my back is frizzy. Is there any danger? Are there black bears or bandits about to rush out?"
Wen Liyu shook off the goosebumps that appeared on her body for no apparent reason and muttered something softly, while Cheng Weiyao frowned slightly and looked at the officers who were escorting the women.
Unlike Chen Er, Li Kui and the others, the officer who was replaced this time was the man who had been escorting the women before. Since he took over the women's team, his eyes have been on the women from all sides.
"It's okay, it's not that bad. There are always so many accidents. Relax."
Although the sister-in-law was not good at martial arts, her intuition and sharpness were quite good. Cheng Weiyao smiled and comforted Wen Liyu, but in fact she secretly slowed down her pace. She wanted to listen to what these unfamiliar officers were planning.
"I think that woman has a good figure. Although she has a thick waist, it fits her figure perfectly. She's truly a 'slim waist'!"
"What do you mean by appreciation? I'd say the princess's figure is truly remarkable. She's light and flexible, swaying gracefully as she walks. It's called a willow waist, like a silk sheath, you know? Look at your tasteless energy..."
The officers were talking about the women in the team. Cheng Weiyao felt like something dirty had entered her ears. She shouldn't have come to listen to this. They were exactly the same as Chen Er, Li Kui and others!
However, Cheng Weiyao's next words made her clench her fists. Perhaps the officers' long-term hunger couldn't be satisfied by just looking at her, so they began to think about how to proceed. "Just watching is boring. How about we make a small bet? Whoever can touch the waist the most will be the winner!"
These were not officials at all, but gangsters in official guise. Cheng Weiyao quickly walked back to Wen Liyu's side, while the officials had already started to act, using the excuse of lost silver to search the waists of the women.
"Why are you being so secretive? I'm not interested in a bean sprout like you. Look at you, you're flat on the front and back, and I'm afraid to get my hands dirty!"
"Take your hands off me! You're already married, why are you pretending to be a virgin? I can tell if you've hidden any money just by feeling it. Why are you being so awkward..."
Several officers were ruthlessly belittling the women, but they were taking advantage of them. The women knew in their hearts that there was no money lost. It was probably because the officers had no chance to get close to the women on the road and were taking advantage of their positions to have fun.
"The one from the Prince Qingping's Mansion..."
The officer had just shouted, and before his eyes fell on Wen Liyu, Cheng Weiyao had already taken a step forward spontaneously, blocking the officers' obscene gaze.
The people from the Prince of Qingping's Mansion were in the middle of the group of female relatives. Wen Liyu had her arms folded across her chest, obviously not intending to cooperate with the search. Cheng Weiyao was playing with the knife in her hand with an indifferent look on her face. The tip of the knife moved flexibly between her fingertips, which made the officers feel a little scared.
Although they had never taken over the female team before, they were familiar with Cheng Weiyao's name. She was a tough guy who was difficult to deal with, and even the eldest brother Wang Gang had a headache.
But you don't know the pain until you've been beaten. One officer saw that Cheng Weiyao was fair and tender, and she was a cold beauty, so he wanted to search her without hesitation: "The Prince of Qingping's Mansion is no exception, everyone is equal!"
"We didn't steal or rob. I see your purses are securely hanging around your waists. You're using your public office for personal gain. You're a scoundrel."
Cheng Weiyao raised an eyebrow, stopped spinning the knife, and changed her hand to holding the knife. There was a hint of fierceness between her brows. What a brand new explanation for equality for all, right?
These straightforward words made all the female members of the family nod their heads. When the officials saw that their little thoughts were exposed, they immediately became anxious and wanted to teach Cheng Weiyao a lesson.
Wen Chengyun remained silent, his eyes narrowed slightly in secret, and his grip tightened a bit. Even if he was pretending to be injured, he still had one hand intact in front of everyone, so taking care of the little minions was no problem...
"Stop and rest, the next shift is about to start!"
At the critical moment, Wang Gang howled at the front. Although he was not at the rear of the team, he was always keeping the control of the entire team in mind. It was clear without a doubt that the inexplicably heavy atmosphere at the rear was a result of a conflict.
A few officers spat on the ground with a gloomy look on their faces and walked to the front of the team cursing.
"Chengming, do you want to go fishing with your sister-in-law? This time I'll teach you a new way to catch fish!"
Cheng Weiyao looked at the shallow stream not far away and already had an idea for lunch. The stream was shallow, just right for teaching Wen Chengming how to fish with a spear, and to cultivate the child's patience and reaction.
"Okay! My sister-in-law said, I'll do it! I'm sure I can catch better fish this time than last time!"
Wen Chengming's eyes suddenly lit up. He was still thinking about his last fishing experience. He caught fish and ate them himself. Although his sister-in-law cooked, he could barely be considered self-sufficient.
Cheng Weiyao led Wen Chengming towards the stream, and Wen Liyu hesitated for a moment before following closely. When she was discovered, she awkwardly explained, "I didn't come here to study. I'm just worried about Chengming..."
Cheng Wei Yao saw through it but didn't say anything, just nodded slightly. The three of them walked by the stream, each holding a long, sharpened tree trunk harpoon, like three scarecrows stuck in the water.
"Sister-in-law, fish! The fish are coming!"
The fish swayed at his feet, giving him an itchy feeling. Wen Chengming's little face looked a little excited, his hand holding the harpoon trembled slightly, and his voice became involuntarily higher.
As soon as he finished speaking, the fish next to Wen Chengming ran away in panic. Seeing this, Wen Chengming slapped his thigh and his little face puffed up like a puffer fish.
"Spearfishing is similar to fishing. You need to be quiet. Fish don't understand what you're saying, but they can hear the noise, and it'll scare them..."
Cheng Weiyao smiled and rubbed Wen Chengming's head with her free hand to comfort him. At this moment, with the sound of water, a delicious river fish was impaled on Wen Liyu's harpoon. The fish's tail was still waving wildly and lively.
"Sister is so awesome!"
Wen Chengming praised her generously, and his admiring eyes made Wen Liyu blush a little, but there was still a hint of pride in her expression.
Finally, she won a game in front of her younger brother, and Wen Liyu felt much more relieved.
