The teacher smiled mockingly, his eyes gleaming with shrewdness. "Once he shows up, he won't be leaving. He dared to launch a sneak attack on Misty Abode; we'll make sure his reputation is ruined."
“Father, I’ve met this White Eyebrows before. He’s a fraudster. He’s using this fat girl to cover for him and hide his identity.”
“Father-in-law, this White Eyebrow must be sent to the imperial court. I have made some contributions and can come back to Linyang with you.”
What were they saying? They were speaking very fast and loudly. I only heard half of it; the people next to me were still arguing, so they stopped talking.
"Little Crab, let's go buy some noodles so we can store them for the New Year."
"You carry it yourself, I don't want to bother with that."
"Hey~ They've been coming to my house to freeload every year, and I've never said anything. Little Bell, stay here with your wife and wait. No one will kidnap your wife."
“Yeah, right!” someone nearby chimed in. “You should go out more often; the people in town are really nice.”
"It's true, I sometimes forget to lock my door when I sleep at home, and I've never been robbed."
"That's right, you're an old married couple, you won't get kidnapped. We're staying here to keep an eye on things."
These people were really enthusiastic. Xie Yuancheng grabbed my hand and talked a bunch of nonsense, making him look like a spineless coward. Sigh, he really suffered.
Lingwu and I were sitting in our seats when the teacher left. He really is like a ghost, appearing and disappearing without a trace. When I went to ask Lingwu something, he really knew how to play dumb, just like a country bumpkin.
"Ouch~ Don't poke my face, I'm already fat~" We were talking when we heard shouts outside. The fat girl was hanging up and she was kicking her legs and throwing punches, and occasionally jumping on the rope.
"Pah! You reek of grease, shameless thing!"
Those people were really rude, but it all started with this chubby girl. I saw a vicious glint in her eyes. If she came down, those people would probably be finished.
"Ignore her, she's just a wild child from a stinky mountain village. She'll be miserable if she doesn't lie."
"That wretched child, whose family was cursed to death when she was young, doesn't even know how to be grateful when someone feeds her, she deserves it!"
The people below started cursing again. I thought the chubby girl would use her brute force, but I was wrong. She just yelled and cursed, but she couldn't do anything.
"I'll make you all suffer!" She had barely uttered those words when she was drenched in cold water, and the people around her burst into laughter.
Wang Fei arrived with the constables and ordered them to release Fatty to prevent innocent people from being hurt. Fatty whimpered, saying that it was all thanks to her who had called them, all the good luck she had brought, and that everyone who was alive was thanks to her.
"Hit her! She's got some nerve, spouting lies!" Wang Fei was a man of few words but ruthless. He gave a shout and the constables rushed forward. The chubby girl cried out, "Baby, I'm sorry, I want candy!"
"Lord Wang~ I was really wrong~ Waaah~"
"Haha, didn't we say we'd make it snow and cover the whole place?"
"Yeah, she also said that we're all like bedbugs crawling on the ground, and she smells the best. When she passed by me just now, the stench could have traveled fifty meters. I heard from the Li family that she only takes a bath once every three or four years, and that she smells wonderful, and that we should always praise her for being cute~"
"Haha, there are still people who haven't showered in so long these days, haha~"
My ears are ringing. Aren't these people talking too much? Wang Fei ordered the constables to carry the fat girl back, and someone threw a bundle at her.
I thought that was the end of it, but then a person dressed in white flew down from the sky. Just as he was about to stand gracefully on the ground, a basket flew out from the side and he fell down.
"He failed at showing off, didn't he?" I smiled at Ling Wu and muttered under my breath. The people around him were practically covering their heads in disbelief when they saw him fall down.
"Hmph! My master is here! Master, chop them all up! Bah! They deserve to die a horrible death, so you'll know what's what!"
The chubby girl still dared to yell. Her master had already fallen to the ground. Before she could even finish speaking, the constables pulled off her board, and she fell to the ground, pounding it loudly.
I bet her next line is going to be about how amazing she is, but oh well, let's see if she has the guts to do it. The people on the street backed away, and the constables stepped forward to fight the man in white. This man was quite skilled, and it looked like the constables were about to suffer a loss when some men in black flew out from several directions and, with a few quick 'snips,' had all their hair shaved off by the man in white.
"Haha~ Serves him right! This kind of charlatan deserves to be beaten! Beat him until he's crawling on the ground and can't go back to his hometown!"
These people were even swearing in a rhyming way. I went around to take a look, and they were all ordinary people. I guess they were just enjoying the show, so they started singing.
The man in white had several holes pierced in his clothes and several cuts in his face. It wasn't that he was weak; it was that the men in black who came showed no mercy and directly severed his tendons.
"Ah!" The man in white's attempt to show off backfired, and seeing the man in black run away, Wang Fei quickly ordered the constables to go and arrest him.
"Waaaah!" The chubby girl pounded on the ground. She really knew how to act. Even at this moment, instead of hugging her master and shouting "Don't go!", she was crying pitifully.
She probably thought the man in white was very powerful, so she planned to reverse the plot, but a complete novice showed up, ruining her plan to amaze a lot of people, and she cried so much that even the locals started to reject her.
I almost laughed. The men in black were definitely Xie Yuancheng and his group in disguise. I'll ask him about it when we get back. Everyone around was giving their opinions. The two of them each brought back some noodles before Lingwu and I left our resting place.
When Xie Yuancheng left, he didn't forget to thank the people around him. He really looked like a farmer. I followed behind him, and the messy place was cleaned up in no time.
"We need to buy some floral fabric to make a new dress for my wife to wear tomorrow. We won't be going back to the village with you. You go ahead."
"Okay, we'll take the noodles with you. We'll come to your house for dinner next time."
"Hmph! It's just a few bowls of rice, why are you making such a fuss?"
"Will you give it to me or not?" Lu Fengjun reached out his hand. They were very careful, their hands were well hidden, and you couldn't tell what they were really like.
"Of course I gave them to them. My wife is the most important person. You all go." Xie Yuancheng handed them the things and then pulled me away.
We walked down the same street we came from, but after getting closer to that house, we took a different route. After turning a few corners, I kept looking back, but no one was following us.
"Don't worry, Ying'er won't see any strange people." He was in good spirits and arrived at the shop quickly. We went through the side door to change clothes and then went out through the back door.
