Xunmi probably had no special reaction to this stepfather's... behavior because her beloved husband had become immune to it.
"Mighty, could you please tell me about this...grandfather who looks like he's turned into a pig? What's going on?"
"Our Longshi Village and Wuyong County are both so peaceful and harmonious. Where did these bandits come from?"
"If there really were bandits, they would have raided the house of that county magistrate."
"He's been here for several years, and he hasn't done anything for us, yet he's still taking public funds."
"Big Monkey, kidnap the man and send him to the county magistrate. Ask him to do his part. Stop teaching your son to be a tyrant and rob anyone he sees on the street."
"Don't let your daughter learn from her brother. A girl is shameless for forcibly seizing a man. Is she going to get married?"
He seemed to have said a lot of complaints, but every word hit the point, leaving the villagers shocked beyond words.
There actually is such a woman. This really broadens my horizons. I immediately started to discuss it in a low voice.
"Oh, I thought our eldest daughter was quite fierce, but I didn't expect the county magistrate's daughter to be so shameless."
"I have to go back and warn my son to stay away from women like this in the future."
"What about my son? He's so handsome, he won't be kidnapped."
'...'
There was a long silence, and they were speechless.
All families with sons think that their sons are very handsome and are already planning to arrange a marriage for them.
After Cheng He finally got over the pain and climbed up, he was so angry.
"Damn it, damn it, I am the county magistrate, I am the county magistrate."
Cheng He was so angry that he wanted to kill all these ignorant people.
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Cheng He, looking at him as if he were a ghost.
The big monkey reacted most directly. He threw the rag in his hand at the other person's face with a bang, cursing under his breath.
"Bah, you're the county magistrate, and you tell us to hand over the young lady as soon as you arrive, and you even say you want to confiscate all our master's property."
"You don't look like a county magistrate at all, you're just a bandit. Which county magistrate doesn't know that our entire Longshi Village depends on you for care?"
"You want to confiscate our master's property. Aren't you just trying to kill us all? You're so evil."
"Fellow villagers, come on, let's beat him to death first. Let him pretend to be the county magistrate and do such a shameless thing."
Cheng He, who had once again aroused the public's anger, was now truly frightened, and he quickly dragged Fu in front of him.
He was so trembling that he couldn't even speak clearly. "I really am the county magistrate, you are a bunch of ignorant villagers."
"I'm going to have the prefect arrest you all and throw you in jail, hang you up and beat you."
This completely ignited and detonated their anger, which had not yet subsided.
"Fight, no matter life or death." Someone shouted this, and everyone rushed forward.
The scene was in chaos again, with screams, curses, and cries for mercy ringing in the ears.
Yan Miao protected Xunmi and stood under a big tree, looking coldly at the person in the middle who was being beaten and wailing.
The county magistrate of Wuyong County? The prefect? It seems some people think they can do whatever they want because the emperor is far away.
A murderous look flashed across his eyes, which was just caught by Xunmi.
Touching her chin, she thought her husband's identity didn't seem simple. He couldn't be a demoted prefect or governor.
Or is it that the princes and nobles are out on a secret tour?
The villagers were beating people up enthusiastically, and they really followed their principles, not caring about life or death. They even knocked out several of Cheng He's teeth.
His right arm hangs unnaturally, his nose is crooked, one side of his mustache has been pulled out, and his clothes are shapeless, all of which truly illustrate what misery is.
At this moment, he couldn't make any sound from his mouth, and could only open and close it continuously.
One of the two has blue eyes, one big and one small, which makes people feel sad.
"That's enough. Everyone, stop now. If someone is beaten to death, that's not good. After all, our Longshi Village is so clean."
"It's better not to leave such filthy things behind. They must be full of resentment."
Xunmi made a sound, which saved Cheng He's life, but given Cheng He's personality, he would definitely not accept it.
But she was not worried at all, because it was obvious that this man would kill himself.
"Young lady is right. Let's get them out and throw them outside the village."
The group of people acted without hesitation, not giving Cheng He and the others a chance to speak. They each picked up one item and left.
Xunmi watched them come and go in a hurry with a dazed look on his face. It was really... a good show.
"Daughter, we dealt this county magistrate such a hard time. He will definitely come back. What do you think we should do next?"
Qiu Zhihao quickly put the pipe on and put it in his mouth to take a puff.
Xunmi looked at the pipe that her cheap father had said was broken just a moment ago. Now white smoke was coming out of it, and her expression was a little distorted.
"Dad, you are already quite old, can you please calm down a little?"
Oh my god, she finally understood why the original owner was so tired of her father, but instinctively protected her father.
Damn, this guy is just an old naughty boy. The original owner must have worked so hard o(╯□╰)o
Qiu Zhihao pouted. Of course he was quiet. He wanted to refute but then he realized that he had a cigarette in his mouth.
And... this pipe seems to be the one that I just said was broken_(:зゝ∠)_
Ahhh, the truth has been revealed. Will my daughter dislike him again?
Although he seems to dislike his daughter too┑(￣Д￣)┍
He silently took out his pipe and put it behind his back. His face, which was already very round, almost plump, looked even rounder when he showed a flattering smile.
Xunmi was so exhausted that she held her forehead with her hands, "Forget it, let's put this matter behind us."
"Let's get down to business, Dad. Don't worry about the county magistrate. The people in town can prove the facts. That is, the people above..."
Let’s stop here. Each world will be automatically completed, so if there are landlords, there will be prefects, and there will be higher-level generals, emperors, etc.
It is said that a higher-ranking official can crush someone to death. It would be fine if she were here, but if she weren't here, what would happen to her stepfather?
"Xunxun, don't worry. I'll protect you and your father. I won't let anyone bully you."
Yan Mu immediately expressed his position, letting the beauty know how powerful he was at all times. Humph, he is just a small prefect, who dares to be so presumptuous.
Xunmi glanced at her husband and thought to herself, her husband's status is really not low.
Qiu Zhihao was stunned. He didn't even hide his pipe and pointed at Yan Mu and stammered.
"You...you...what did you just call me?"
"Dad." Yan Miao thought the other party disagreed, and immediately patted his chest and promised: "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely love Xunxun well and protect her as if she were my own life."
Seeing the man's sincere promise, Qiu Zhihao turned around and took Xunmi's hand and said excitedly, "Wow...daughter, someone finally wants you."
