Qian Xiuzhu and Zheng Guihua, especially, had not expected anything like this to happen and were momentarily flustered. Qian Xiuzhu was relatively calm, stepping forward to support the retreating Second Mistress and settling her down before stepping out.
"Why are you arresting us without evidence? If you don't explain clearly, we'll have something to say even if we take the case to court or to the county magistrate!"
The leader of the yamen runners sneered, "A bunch of untouchables fleeing famine, you still want to see the county magistrate? You're dreaming!"
He raised his hand and gestured to the yamen runners behind him: "Go!"
"You'd better not touch us." Jiang Huaixu walked to Qian Xiuzhu and kindly advised her with his little face tilted up.
After the leader saw Jiang Huaixu clearly, he spat, "Who do you think you are? You overestimate your own abilities!"
Just as he finished speaking, he stood there and found that there was no movement behind him. He turned around and saw that all the people he brought with him were looking at each other, standing there and not daring to move forward.
"Old Zhu, this girl is so young, but she's not afraid at all. I'm afraid there's something fishy going on!" Someone whispered in front of Zhu, the yamen runner.
Zhu Yayi was furious that Jiang Huaixu had ruined his reputation. He raised the corner of his mouth and said disdainfully, "When did you become so cowardly? Are you afraid of a little girl who's still wet behind the ears? They say a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. I want to see if she'll be afraid if I land a punch on her!"
The yamen runner who reminded him was stunned. Didn't Old Zhu say that just smashing the stall and arresting the person would be enough as a gesture? Why did he have to resort to violence?
Zhu Yayi shook his shoulders and walked in front of Jiang Huaixu and stretched out his hand.
Jiang Huaixu carefully pushed aside Qian Xiuzhu, who wanted to stand in front of him, and a smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth the moment his body left the ground. When Zhu Yayi saw this scene, he suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
It’s a pity that it’s too late to retreat.
The moment Jiang Huaixu was grabbed by the collar like a little chicken, she grabbed the yamen runner's arm with her backhand, stood firm, and pulled it back with skill. When she let go again, the arm drooped limply.
She remained indifferent to the screams and did not give the other party any time to react. She quickly ran to the side and back of the yamen runner's other arm, grabbed the arm, and kicked it. The other party immediately knelt on one knee, and she took the opportunity to break another arm.
After doing all this, she kicked the man far away, turned around and looked at the remaining yamen runners calmly.
While staring at the man, he said to Li Ergou: "Brother Ergou, catch him and don't let him run away."
Li Ergou, who was already stunned, took a while to realize that Jiang Huaixu was talking to him, "...Oh-oh!"
"Officials, may I ask you something?" Jiang Huaixu asked when he saw that the remaining yamen runners did not come forward.
Yamen runners: "Sir? Who is the sir?"
The bailiffs, having recovered from their shock, took several steps back. One of them swallowed hard before stammering, "Do you still know that we are officials? Do you know what the charge is for injuring a bailiff?!"
"I didn't hurt him." Jiang Huaixu said innocently, "There was something wrong with his arm, and it was dislocated when I pulled it. If you don't believe me, I can heal it."
She walked up to Zhu Yayi again. Zhu Yayi's tall and strong body huddled up in a ball. He backed away while shaking his head, "Don't come over, don't come over..."
Zhu, the yamen runner who was restrained by Li Ergou, had no chance of escaping. Jiang Huaixu lifted his arm and moved it a few times, and there was a crisp sound of bones breaking.
Feeling that his arm could move, Zhu Yayi subconsciously retracted his hand.
The onlookers were all amazed, and the yamen runners were also stunned, not understanding why a little girl could remove a person's arm so skillfully.
After the performance, Jiang Huaixu grabbed Zhu's retracted hand again. After a while, the arm fell limply down again.
People watching the fun:······
Where did this scary girl come from?
The yamen runners were shocked and angry. One of them asked, "What on earth do you want to do?"
"Is his surname Zhu? Is he the brother-in-law of the lady who runs the tofu shop at Li's? Did you arrest the troublemakers when you came to arrest people? Did the troublemakers ever say that they were instructed by us? Finally, is he seeking revenge for personal gain?" Jiang Huaixu pointed at the yamen runner Zhu and asked a series of questions.
The yamen runners couldn't answer any of these questions. They knew full well whether Old Zhu was seeking revenge. They felt his actions were perfectly justifiable; they had finally gotten an official assignment, so why not help their relatives?
The bad thing was that they were frightened by this little girl at the beginning and had already lost the initiative.
The onlookers also realized what was going on and couldn't help whispering to each other.
"Looks like this is just a personal vendetta?"
"That Li family lady is very petty. She must remember that the Jiang family stole their business!"
"This little girl beat up Mr. Zhu. It's okay if Mr. Zhu is scared. If he really can't swallow this anger, the little girl and her family will definitely suffer some physical pain..."
"I don't think so. This little girl speaks and acts like a grown-up. She must know that it won't be easy to get away with it. But she still does it. What if she has something to rely on?"
······
After finishing what needed to be said, Jiang Huaixu asked Li Ergou to let the man go, and he bent down to adjust Zhu Yayi's bones.
As he moved, he threatened, "I will not offend anyone unless they offend me. If the Zhu yamen servant thinks we are helpless refugees, I'm afraid he is wrong."
She raised her eyebrows slightly, chuckled and said, "If you don't believe me, why not give it a try?"
Zhu, the yamen runner, who was screaming but harboring infinite malice in his heart, became confused for a moment after hearing these words, and the malice in his heart instantly retracted.
