Chapter 310 Look at them, so many people can't beat my sister alone
Lan Xiyue heard this and sneered, "You still dare to speak harshly to me now? I'll let you know, now that you've met me, your time as a county magistrate has come to an end."
"You, don't come over here!" Liang Guo's voice was almost begging. He kept swallowing his saliva, trying to calm the fear in his heart.
However, Lan Xiyue ignored his pleas and leaped towards Liang Guo like an eagle soaring into the sky.
She grabbed Liang Guo's collar and punched him hard in the left eye with lightning speed, followed by another punch, hitting his right eye accurately.
Liang Guo felt a black screen before his eyes, and his whole body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily to the ground, dizzy and in great pain.
Niuniu cheered, "Sister is so awesome!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lan Xiyue jumped up, holding Niuniu in her arms, and they both landed steadily on the ground.
Niuniu looked up at Lan Xiyue, her eyes full of admiration and yearning: "Sister, you are so amazing, Niuniu, can you learn Kung Fu from me?"
Lan Xiyue looked at Niuniu with a gentle smile on her lips. After thinking for a moment, she said, "If you want to learn Kung Fu from me, you have to leave home and stay away from your family. Are you willing?"
Niu Niu's brow furrowed slightly upon hearing this, a look of confusion written all over her small face. After a moment, she gently shook her head, her voice filled with reluctance: "Forget it, Grandpa is old, and my brother is away at school. If I'm not home, Grandpa will be very lonely." Though her words were simple, each one carried a weight, revealing a sensibility and filial piety beyond her years.
Lan Xiyue heard this and patted Niuniu's head, her eyes full of admiration: "What a sensible child."
She turned to look at a group of yamen runners not far away who were beaten to a pulp. She walked over, grabbed the trembling servant next to her, and pricked him with a silver needle. "Go find a rope. It'll take a cup of tea. If you don't find it, you'll have your intestines pierced and your stomach ruptured!"
The servant was so frightened that he trembled all over and nodded repeatedly.
"Not going yet?"
The servant woke up as if from a dream and ran out quickly. After a while, he came back panting with a bundle of ropes in his arms, his face full of horror.
Lan Xiyue pointed at the yamen runners piled up on the ground, and said with a hint of joking, "Tie them up and string them together one by one."
The servant was stunned: "Huh?"
Lan Xiyue's smile widened, a sly look flashing in her eyes: "Don't tie you up? I'll let you go see Taizu."
The servant stood there in a daze, stammering, "My, my great-grandfather is long gone."
Lan Xiyue couldn't help laughing: "Oh, so you want to meet your great ancestor?"
The servant finally reacted and quickly started to tie the man up, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
Lan Xiyue took Niuniu by the hand and walked to a stone bench to sit down. Niuniu snuggled up to Lan Xiyue and said, "Sister, although I can't learn Kung Fu from you, Niuniu will work hard and become someone like you in the future."
Lan Xiyue chuckled, her eyes full of tenderness and encouragement: "Yeah."
"Sister, why did you tie them up? Now that they are like this, why don't we go."
Lan Xiyue lowered her head and whispered, "Niuniu, they are all bad guys. They have made the people of Yancheng live in dire straits. I will tie these bad guys up and parade them through the streets so that the people can vent their anger. After I deal with them, I will send you home, okay?"
Niuniu nodded, seeming to understand, and said, "Okay, let's deal with these bad guys first."
The servants laboriously tied up the yamen runners one by one and strung them together with ropes.
Lan Xiyue stood up, took one end of the rope with one hand, held Niuniu's little hand tightly with the other hand, and walked out of the county government office with big strides.
The county magistrate and yamen runners, with bruised faces and noses, could only stagger behind her.
As soon as they left the county government office, Lan Xiyue shouted, "Fellow villagers, come out quickly! Those who have grudges can take revenge, and those who don't can vent their anger! I, Lan Xiyue, will protect you!"
However, even though Lan Xiyue's voice resounded through the sky, the people in the distance just watched the scene from afar, and no one dared to step forward.
Lan Xiyue didn't care. She pulled the rope and walked slowly down the street. The county magistrate and the yamen runners behind her lowered their heads and staggered like dogs that had lost their homes.
She paraded these villains through the streets for public display, and the people along the way pointed and whispered, with surprise and expectation in their eyes.
Lan Xiyue stopped walking, turned to face the onlookers, and shouted, "Don't be afraid, folks! This corrupt official is bullying the people and making your lives miserable. Today, I, Lan Xiyue, have come to rid you of this evil! Everyone, feel free to come forward and curse them out! With me here, they won't dare fight back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an old lady walked out from the crowd.
She trembled as she walked up to Lan Xiyue, her eyes filled with gratitude and worry. "Miss, this official is a piece of shit! And the people from the Tan Mansion are not to be trifled with! Leave Yancheng now before the people from the Tan Mansion arrive!"
Lan Xiyue frowned slightly upon hearing this, a wave of curiosity and vigilance rising in her heart. "The Tan Mansion? The wife of the dog official's family?"
The old lady sighed and recounted the evil deeds of the Tan family. It turned out that the Tan family was a local tyrant in Yancheng, rich but unkind, and oppressed the people. The people dared not speak out against the Tan family and could only endure it silently.
Lan Xiyue curled her lips into a faint smile and said to the worried old lady, "Thank you, Auntie. I'm not afraid. Since the Tan Mansion is the in-laws of this bastard official, I will destroy the Tan Mansion today and remove this poisonous fang for you. From now on, you won't have to live in such fear anymore."
Upon hearing this, the old lady frowned, twisting the corners of her clothes tightly with her hands, her eyes full of worry: "Young lady, you must listen to my advice. The Tan family is not to be trifled with. They are extremely powerful, and the thugs in the family are even more vicious. How can a weak woman like you compete with them?"
Niu Niu stood aside, blinking her big eyes, and said crisply: "Don't worry, mother-in-law, my sister is very powerful. Look at them, so many people can't beat my sister alone." As she spoke, she pointed at the county magistrate and yamen runners with bruised faces and noses behind her.
The old lady turned her head sharply upon hearing this, only to see the officers, who usually flaunted their power, now bruised and swollen, wailing incessantly. She was shocked. How could this girl, alone, beat them up like this?
Thinking of the more ferocious thugs in the Tan Mansion, the old lady couldn't help but feel worried.
She looked at the county magistrate's vicious eyes, her heart tightened, and she ran away quickly, looking back as she ran, fearing that the corrupt official would hold a grudge against her and come back to take revenge on them.
