To all the landlords and gentry who have no idea where its good reputation comes from: ┑(￣Д￣)┍I don’t understand what you are talking about.
So, when Cheng He appeared at the door of the Qiu family angrily, he was decisively stopped by the Qiu family's gatekeeper.
After he introduced himself, the servant rushed in and yelled at him.
"Master, Master, there's an old man outside called Cheng He who I've never seen before, and he wants to see you. I see he's bringing a group of people with him, and they seem to be looking for trouble. Master, would you like me to go and gather some people?"
The voice was so loud that Cheng He outside could hear every word, and he was almost jumped up in anger.
Qiu Zhihao was also a man of temper. He slammed the table and said, "Er Gouzi, tell them to grab weapons for me. They've even bullied me right to my door. Let's fight them back."
"Yes, sir." The young man named Ergouzi ran out excitedly and asked people to go.
After hearing the entire conversation, Cheng He felt so frustrated that he felt like he was screwed.
He was such a famous person, but these untouchables and low-lifes had never heard of him.
"Qiu Zhihao, I'm County Magistrate Cheng He. I came here today to talk to you about something."
Unable to bear it any longer, he roared directly at the door. Facing the lobby inside, he vaguely saw a man sitting in a rocking chair smoking.
Qiu Zhihao was smoking and was choked by the loud roar outside, and kept coughing.
What the hell is a county magistrate? What's there to say about visiting their house?
"Big monkey, go call him in and have a talk." After stopping coughing, Qiu Zhihao said to the servant who was wiping the table.
I began to wonder what this Shangde County Magistrate, who had never appeared in the village or the county, was doing here at this time. Was he trying to get a free meal?
That's absolutely not possible. They have so many people to support at home, how can they have extra food for others?
Qiu Zhihao, who looked like Maitreya Buddha, was distressed. He felt that he had to kick the person out directly and not be soft-hearted.
After finally entering the lobby, before they could even open their mouths, Qiu Zhihao bluntly accused them of having no food to eat.
Cheng He was really furious this time. He kicked the bench next to him and said, "Qiu Zhihao, I'm here to confront your daughter today."
"She stole my daughter's husband and allowed someone to beat up my son. I want your daughter to serve my son."
The pipe in Qiu Zhihao's hand fell to the ground with a clang, and his originally neatly-made Tang suit became a little messy because he stood up suddenly.
His plump face looked as if he had been frightened, his skin was so broken that his eyes were almost invisible.
Cheng He thought the other party was scared, so he let out a breath and felt relieved.
"Hand over your daughter, and we'll pretend nothing happened. Otherwise, I'll confiscate all your property and land."
"What?" Qiu Zhihao was so surprised that he stepped on the pipe without noticing. What did he just hear? This man who claimed to be the county magistrate wanted to confiscate his family's property?
"Hey, old man, you're not some bandit, are you? Big monkey, hurry up and tell the master to have the villagers beat this thing out with sticks."
"If he is killed, it will be mine. If he is not killed, it is his good fortune."
As he said this, he pouted twice: "Don't you see what you are doing? You dare to ask my daughter to serve your son as soon as you come here."
"Just looking at your son, you can tell he's a jerk. He might have been attracted by my daughter's beauty and wanted to tease her, but he didn't expect to be dealt with by my daughter."
"Shame on you! After beating the younger one, now the older one is here. Do you really think my daughter has no one to support her?"
"Is Ergou back?" As soon as he shouted, a voice of agreement came from outside.
"They're back, they're back, sir. The villagers are all carrying hoes and sickles, ready to drive these bandits out at any time."
Ergouzi roared loudly and energetically, and dozens of villagers who came also roared along with him. The momentum was really strong.
At least Cheng He in the room was so scared that his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
It was Lai Fu who was beside him who supported him and prevented him from making a fool of himself.
"You...you...Qiu Zhihao, I'm the county magistrate, the magistrate of the entire Wuyong County. You're threatening the county magistrate. I can sue you, and you'll be sentenced."
Cheng He tried his best to shout, but his increasingly weak voice showed how lacking in confidence he was.
"Sue me, mabi! If you dare to set your sights on my daughter, I'll let the dogs bite you to death."
To be honest, Qiu Zhihao can be said to be doting on his only daughter, but the way they get along is really weird.
Just like what Xunmi showed before, he seemed to not care at all, but when it came to matters concerning the other person, he would protect her.
It seems like, no matter how bad my father/daughter is, I am the only one who can scold or criticize them, and you, an outsider, are nothing to me.
At this moment, if you talk about the family property to Qiu Zhihao, he probably won't get angry, but when you mention his daughter, he will beat you up in a minute.
"Qiu Zhihao, I will make you go to jail." Cheng He hid behind Lai Fu spinelessly, still only able to yell with his mouth.
The people outside had already rushed in at Qiu Zhihao's call, and were now chasing Cheng He and the others to beat them.
Cheng He was hit many times and screamed in pain.
The villagers still had some sense and used the side of the hoe stick to hit people instead of using the sharp hoe directly.
Otherwise, Cheng He would really be beheaded, so when Xunmi heard the news and rushed back, what he saw was the yard in chaos.
Trampled flower pots, broken branches, and bumpy ground.
And the swing and chairs were just corpses!
After closing her eyes and opening them again, Xunmi felt terrible. Oh my god, she liked that swing very much because it was very similar to the swing her husband had arranged for her in the Western Fantasy Plane.
When he left, he gave them many instructions to take good care of the baby and to make sure nothing went wrong.
The result? A rope dangling alone from a tree trunk, and a hollow carved chair entwined with vines, broken in two.
"Ah~~~ Stop right there." With a real lion's roar, the noisy scene inside suddenly quieted down.
They stood in a row, more obedient than three-year-old children, without moving at all.
Xunmi still had the mind to sigh about how noisy the original owner had been, making these people behave like quails as soon as they heard her voice.
He is indeed a super naughty kid!
"Someone tell me what's going on, huh?" He raised his voice and scanned the people in the yard one by one.
Success made their bodies more rigid, and they held their heads high and chests puffed out like soldiers.
Qiu Zhihao quickly rushed to his daughter, grabbed her most precious pipe and showed it to Xunmi, and complained without hesitation.
"Where have you been, you little bitch? Look, bandits have broken into our house and even your father's and my pipes."
"Hey, hey, and your swing was also done by that bandit."
"When your father saw him destroy your favorite thing, he gathered people and rushed over to beat them up without saying a word. This time, your father will show his might."
Ergouzi and others: “…” Master, is it really okay for you to lie with your eyes open like this?
Cheng He and others: "..." Spicy next door, this shameless guy, can't he have some shame!!!
