Chapter 119: The Comer Is Not Good
"Miss, madam, a group of officers and soldiers have come in outside" Niu Dazhuang panted and leaned on the door.
"Officers and soldiers? What are the officers and soldiers doing here? Could it be that they are here to recruit troops? Uncle Niu, you sit down and rest first, I'll take a look" It still takes some strength to run in at the gate, after all, there is a certain distance.
"Girl, I'll go with you" Li Xiuniang was worried about Kapok, and also wanted to see what the situation was, Huanghai was in the town, and there was a man in the family, so Niu Dazhuang didn't want to rest, and went out of the small yard together.
After walking for a short while, I saw a group of officers and soldiers coming in front of me.
"Ladies and gentlemen, why do you want to come to the Humble House? If it is a recruitment, there are no young adults in our family," Kapok said politely.
"None? Could it be that the little girl is tricking me? Mu Qing is your father? Mu Lang is your brother? Don't learn to lie at a young age, be careful that you won't be able to marry in the future," the leader laughed, and after speaking, the rest of the officers and soldiers laughed.
"Hehe, this adult laughed, although Mu Qing is my blood father, but we have long since broken off the relationship, Mu Lang is just the son of another woman married by Mu Qing, and I have nothing to do with it, everyone in our village has witnessed, and the yamen has also done another household registration, my lord, are you looking for the wrong person" Kapok didn't want to cause trouble for the family, otherwise this person's mouth would have been swollen a long time ago.
After listening to Kapok, the leader suddenly felt cheated, but he thought that Mu Qing's house was so tattered that he would definitely not be able to take out ten taels of silver, and his daughter was a person who could take out ten taels of silver at will.
"Little girl, anyway, you are his daughter, and you are also related by blood if you break off your relationship, so it is better for you to be kind enough to give him this money," the leader sneered.
"Hehe, this adult, I have made it very clear that I have nothing to do with the Mu family, if you want money, go to Mu Qing" Kapok was patient, there was a trace of impatience in her heart, she had already thought of why these people would find here and let her pay, which must be indispensable to the "credit" of Mu Qing and others
"Little girl, don't you stop drinking and drinking? Hurry up and hand over the money, otherwise I will be unkind to you" The leader saw Kapok's attitude that it was not his business, and his heart was furious, he wanted either people but money, and the emergency situation at the border had nothing to do with him.
"Then you can try" Kapok chuckled, her face didn't matter, these people were just a bunch of weak chickens in front of her.
"It seems that it won't work if I don't teach you a lesson" After speaking, the leader rushed up with a gesture and the two were ready to teach Kapok and the others a lesson, but unfortunately, they didn't know the means of Kapok, Li Xiuniang and Niu Dazhuang were not afraid of these people rushing up, because they knew how powerful Kapok was.
"When you give me practice" Kapok disdainful, using brute force, the two of them couldn't stand it, and fell to the ground curling in pain.
The leader saw that Kapok had two strikes and motioned for the rest of the officers and soldiers to go up together.
"So many of you are bullying me as a woman, and you are not afraid of people's jokes," Kapok laughed, and with a little effort, he let them all fall to the ground before they could get close.
The leader saw that Kapok was not easy to mess with, his face changed, and he lost a lot of hair, so he moved out of the yamen, "Little girl, if you injure the officers and soldiers of the yamen and disrupt our work, you will be in prison."
"Then it also depends on who is looking for trouble first, even if the Jade Emperor comes, I am not afraid" Kapok said indifferently, she was telling the truth, she only recognized reason, not people.
The leader saw that Kapok was so arrogant, and he was armed again, and so many people couldn't be subdued, so he was ready to go into battle in person, but was stopped by an officer and soldier, he was a person from the yamen, not from the county, and the yamen specially sent him to lead the way.
The leader also heard that the Huns in this town were subdued by several people, including a woman, but they didn't expect it to be Kapok, although the people in the county didn't say anything, but they were not good at directly having a conflict with the yamen, not to mention that the people above should be very powerful, and they must not be able to offend, so they had to give up.
"This young lady, I'm sorry, I made a mistake, I'll take someone away" The leader was still calling the little girl just now, and now he is calling Miss, this change of face has become a little fast, Kapok doesn't know why, is it because he is too powerful?
"It's okay, it's okay, let's go!" Kapok didn't want to offend these people, so he didn't pursue it.
As soon as they got out of the gate of Kapian's house, the leading officers and soldiers scolded, "Mu Qing, you wait for me, the old man can't spare you."
Mu Qing and the others were still happy at home, thinking that the officers and soldiers had been gone for so long and had not come back, they should have received the silver smoothly, but they didn't expect that they would only cry for a while, Xiaohong couldn't be happy in her heart, and she had to pretend that she was very happy.
After a while, a group of officers and soldiers rushed into Mu Qing's house again, and it was the same group of people just now.
"Adults, you, why are you here again?" Mu Qing felt bad in his heart as soon as he saw these people, and asked tentatively.
"Mu Qing, are you embarrassed to ask why we are here? Dare to lie to us, do you know what kind of punishment we will have for deceiving us? Disrupting official business, should you send a few of you to prison? The leader was furious, and the rest of the officers and soldiers who had been beaten were also angry.
"Your Excellency, your Excellency! We don't want to go to jail, so you have a lot of spare us! This, I, we, her, why didn't she give it to you? Mu Qing knelt on the ground and kowtowed in fear.
"Why didn't you give it to us, I have to ask you, if you don't want to go to prison, hurry up and get the money, don't delay our business" The leader stared at Mu Qing viciously, and Mu Qing and the others shrank back in fear.
"My lord, we don't have any money!"
"No money? If you don't have any money, give it to me."
"My lord, no, no, I'm just this one son!" When Mu Qing heard this, he was anxious.
"And how much money do you think you have? I'll see if I can give you less," the leader looked at Mu Qing with a playful expression.
"Five, five taels of silver, that's all there is to it," Mu Qing said stumblingly, but he didn't tell the truth.
"That's fine, you'll take five taels"
"This, this is great, thank you, my lord, Xiaohong took out the five taels of silver at home" Mu Qing turned his head and ordered.
Xiaohong looked at Mu Qing with an embarrassed face, and in the end, there was no way that so many people couldn't ruin the image that had been maintained for so long, so she had to turn around and get the silver.
After bringing the silver, Mu Qing handed it over with a flattering face, and the leader counted it and put it into his pocket.
