"A big client? Where did he come from?" Jiang Ming asked the child curiously.
"Judging from his clothes and accent, he looks like a non-Han Chinese, not from around here..."
"Hu people?"
Jiang Ming sensed that something was wrong.
Do the Hu people lack hides?
How much more do you want? What does he want to do?
Wolf pelts are suitable for making warm clothing, but not for making armor.
He returned home with curiosity, and his younger sister told him that the merchant from the Hu region had been asked by her to wait at her parents' house first.
In ancient times, men and women were not supposed to have physical contact. If the male host was not at home, how could a male guest be allowed to linger in the house?
The older sister wouldn't even let him into the courtyard...
When the younger sister saw Jiang Ming with an extremely ugly old woman, their hands tied together with a rope, she was completely dumbfounded!
"Husband, who is this?"
"Oh, let me introduce you... This is the sorceress who tried to kill my second sister."
"ah?"
The fact that she was a fortune teller startled the younger sister.
It wasn't for any other reason than that in Dukang County, everyone knew that the sorceress was a favorite of the county governor.
Everyone was furious but dared not speak out; their husbands had actually brought her home.
Although the sorceress was very well-known, when she was "acting up her tricks," people could only observe from afar and not approach her, so it was normal that they didn't recognize her!
The sorceress dared not act presumptuously in front of Jiang Ming, but when she saw Chen Damei, who was dressed simply and whose clothes were embroidered with patches, she even showed an arrogant and disdainful expression on her face!
Jiang Ming ignored these details and dragged the sorceress toward the woodshed!
"Dabao! Dabao!"
"Brother-in-law, oh no... Lord Jiang, I'm here!"
Chen Dabao's sobbing voice came from the woodshed.
Jiang Ming kicked the wooden gate open and saw Chen Dabao huddled beside the woodpile, gnawing on a roasted wolf leg...
There was also a small wine jar and two small dishes of snacks on the ground.
I have to say, the younger sister is so kind!
Although they weren't born to the same mother, Da Bao was still her own brother. She was being treated to the best food and drink, living a more comfortable life than her father, Old Master Chen!
"Brother-in-law, I was wrong, I'm not human! I shouldn't have threatened you! I really know I was wrong, sob sob! Please forgive me? Give me a chance to make amends, sob sob sob!"
Chen Dabao, with a broken leg, struggled to get up and awkwardly knelt on one knee before Jiang Ming, repeatedly slapping himself in the face.
"Alright, alright!"
Jiang Ming waved his hand and suddenly yanked the sorceress, almost causing the old pig-dog to fall flat on its face.
"Do you know her?" Jiang Ming asked.
"No... I don't know him!" Chen Dabao looked completely bewildered.
Jiang Ming said, "This is the sorceress who wanted to send Second Sister up the mountain to feed the tigers!"
"ah?"
"Now I'm giving you a task!"
Jiang Ming grinned, revealing a wicked smile, and said, "Keep her in the woodshed and give her thirty lashes every day!"
"ah!?"
Before Chen Dabao could react further, the sorceress knelt down before Jiang Ming with a thud, pleading desperately!
"Lord Jiang, you can't treat this old woman like this! I'm so old, please spare me, please! Waaah!?" The sorceress cried and begged, tears streaming down her face.
"Spare you? Those girls you killed, have you spared them? You old pig, let me tell you, if you want to suffer less, behave yourself, otherwise... I'll cut your legs off, like those wolf legs, roast them, and give them to my brother-in-law to dip in sauce..."
Before Jiang Ming could finish speaking, the sorceress was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, even wetting herself in fright!
"Brother-in-law... what if the prefect finds out about what you're doing...?" Chen Dabao was trembling with fear.
"What are you afraid of?"
Jiang Ming grinned and patted Chen Dabao on the shoulder, laughing, "This isn't your business, don't worry about it! Remember! As long as you behave, you'll live a good life with me from now on. If you don't, I'll break your other leg..."
"I'll be good, I'll be good!"
Chen Dabao was terrified, his body trembling like a leaf. He had witnessed Jiang Ming's ruthlessness firsthand; Jiang Ming truly meant what he said.
Then, Jiang Ming, like dragging a dead dog, picked up the sorceress and tied her tightly to a pillar with another hemp rope.
Then he untied the rope from his wrist and tied the sorceress and Chen Dabao together!
Who the hell has time to take her everywhere they go?
Chen Dabao has a limp, so it's good that the two of them can keep each other company while they stay in the woodshed!
After tossing the sheep-herding whip to Chen Dabao, Jiang Ming left the woodshed.
With a worried and anxious expression, Chen Damei asked, "Husband, this... won't this cause trouble?"
"Don't worry! From now on, in this Dukang Prefecture, your husband is the real 'shaman'! The prefect will believe me, not her!"
"ah?"
Chen Damei stared at Jiang Ming in disbelief, her eyes wide open.
Actually, Jiang Ming was also saying this to Chen Dabao...
Sure enough, a moment later, the sorceress's screams came from the woodshed!
"Slap! Slap!"
"ah!"
"You old bastard, I'll teach you a lesson for harming my sister! If it weren't for you, you old son of a bitch, my leg wouldn't be crippled!"
"Clap clap clap!"
"Ah! Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! Waaah!"
......
"Dabao! Put your socks in her mouth so she doesn't yell and disturb the neighbors' rest. They have to work the next day. Don't you have any sense of public decency?"
