CHAPTER XXII
Originally, they just wanted to ask for money to spend, but after seeing Mingxiu's appearance, they changed their attention.
These little gangsters have always been taboo in meat and vegetarians, and they always laugh when they see a good-looking big girl and little daughter-in-law, but now in front of Mingxiu, they have the intention of conquering.
In the past, little girls and daughters-in-law were teased by them, most of them ran away with red faces, and when they met a temper, they were nothing more than scolding, but Mingxiu was not afraid and dared to quarrel with them, such a woman was really interesting.
"Sister, think about it, we have time to play slowly with you."
The boss stretched out his hand and patted Mingxiu's cheek, his expression full of frivolity.
It's best for a little girl like Mingxiu to bully, even if she doesn't agree now, as long as they come to town in the future, he will bring his little brother to the door, and gossip will intrude, Mingxiu will give in one day.
What the girls were worried about was clear to these people.
"Get your dirty hands away!"
Mingxiu saw the opportunity and grabbed the boss's little thumb and broke it back.
"Don't toast Lao Tzu, don't eat and drink!" The boss's face was full of pain, and he was no longer willing to tolerate her "rudeness", so he directly opened the stall.
The hard-picked wild vegetables and fruits were scattered all over the ground.
Mingxiu secretly regretted in his heart, he should practice his strength, and if there is such a situation in the future, he will be able to break his hand at once!
"Let's go!"
"Stop!" Seeing that they wanted to slip away when they lifted the stall, Mingxiu stepped forward to stop him, "I want to leave after lifting my stall?" ”
"What else do you want?" The boss laughed and glanced at Mingxiu contemptuously, this little arm and leg, ten is not enough for him to fight!
"Xiu'er, forget it."
Ming's mother gently pulled Mingxiu's sleeve, it would be good to be able to send these people away, although it was a pity that these things could not be eaten, but they were much better than them beating people.
Even though she knew that Ming's mother had good intentions in her heart, Mingxiu was still a little unwilling in her heart.
She pursed her lips slightly, she didn't say anything, and only after watching those people leave did she follow Ming Mu to pack up the things scattered all over the place.
If these things occupy the streets, and the yamen knows about them, they will be fined silver.
"What's going on?"
A familiar voice came from his head, and Mingxiu looked up.
"Why are you here?"
Shouldn't he be at home with his father at this time to repair the house? How did you get to town now?
Maybe Mingxiu's expression was too obvious, Xie Zhan explained: "Your father said that the family had to buy some stones to build the courtyard wall, and asked me to tell you to help by the way." ”
After all, Mingxiu and Ming's mother are two women's families, and they are powerless to transport the stones back.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I found the two of them, I saw things scattered all over the place.
Judging from the amount on the ground, Mingxiu and Ming's mother don't seem to have sold much today before they were turned up.
Mingxiu smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid I won't be able to buy it today." ”
Originally, I thought that I would go out and buy materials directly after selling the things on the stall and making money, but now these things have not been sold, and the spare money I carry on my body is obviously not enough.
"Who did it?"
Mingxiu sighed slightly, told him about Fang Cai's affairs, and finally concluded: "The little gangsters here are inevitably too arrogant, don't they care about the yamen?" ”
"Dare to be so aggressive and domineering, there should be something to do with the yamen." Xie Zhan's expression was faint, although he never cared about these small things in the market before, he still understood the basic truth.
It may not be the county master who has something to do with those gangsters, even if it is just a quick arrester, he can overwhelm the Ming family.
Mingxiu pursed her lips slightly, "Do you want to swallow this breath?" ”
"Of course not." Xie Zhan has lived in the Ming family for so long, Ming's father and mother have nothing to do with him, and he is no different from Mingxiu, people's hearts are long, Xie Zhan can't just leave it alone.
Although his identity is a little sensitive now, there are still a few available people under his hands.
These people can take out one at random, and they can make the county order act honestly.
"There is always justice in this world."
Xie Zhan helped them clean up the ground, and then took the cart to the county office.
Originally, the complaint had to be written, but Xie Zhan had his own method, so there was no need to be so troublesome.
"Wait for me here for a while."
After settling Mingmu and Mingxiu not far from the county office, Xie Zhan turned his head and left, and disappeared from the sight of the two after a while.
"What is he going to do here?" Ming's mother was a little worried, if she wanted her to say that this matter would be stopped, at least she didn't have to worry about those little gangsters coming to the door to find trouble later, "We didn't lose much in total, these things will go up the mountain with you, and get a lot back." ”
It's a blessing to suffer a loss, Mingxiu and Xie Zhan obviously want to take this breath, how can Ming's mother rest assured?
Those little gangsters are not stingy, and they don't have to care about any reputation, their reputation has long been stinking.
But Mingxiu is different, a girl's family, many times reputation is more important than life, in case those people suffer a loss and hate Mingxiu to go out and talk nonsense, then how can she live!
Mingxiu's reputation is not very good, how can she find her in-laws in the future?
"Mother, a tree lives a skin, and a person lives a breath! People have already bullied us, do we still have to endure it? Mingxiu has his own considerations, "Lord Qingtian is a parent official who is the master of our people, and we have been wronged, so we naturally have to confide in our parents." ”
"That's what I said, but ......"
How many parents in this world are willing to really think about the people, so that the ordinary people who keep to themselves will not be wronged?
To put it bluntly, Ming's mother still doesn't believe that the county magistrate will be promoted because of this matter, and she doesn't want to trouble others.
When Mingxiu persuaded his mother, Xie Zhan had already returned.
"Let's go, the county government is ready."
Ming Xiu bowed her head and helped Ming's mother put the cart together and then went to the county office.
The county magistrate of this county is a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, not full of belly, Mingxiu looked fixedly, and saw that this Qingtian lord was dressed in an indigo official uniform, his face was full of majesty, if he shaved the beard on his face, he should be a middle-aged handsome uncle.
And now......
It doesn't look like a civilian official, but more like a military general.
If he looked at Xie Zhan from time to time, Mingxiu would believe in his majesty even more.
"Ahem...... Who's in the hall? What's the grievance?! ”
Mingxiu's undisguised gaze made the county commander a little embarrassed, and coughed lightly to make a serious statement.
Mingxiu and Ming's mother both knelt down, while Xie Zhan ......
He only glanced at the county order faintly, which meant that bowing was considered a salute.
