"Since the lady spoke like this, we don't have to worry. My insignificant child had a high fever all night, which frightened the old lady. She ignored my dissuasion and came to disturb a few people with the child in her arms. She must have also disturbed a few people. Rest. I am here to apologize to her and all the officials, and I hope you will not mind her." After the husband finished speaking, he bowed deeply.

I thought my husband was a knowledgeable and sensible person, but he didn't expect that the next second he said directly: "I just wonder if you can tell me where the old lady is? It's already so late now. She is holding the child outside after all. This is not a good idea. If we meet some bad people again, won't we be gossiped about?"

Hearing this, Yao Shu already understood that her husband was not worried about the safety of his children and wife, but was worried about being criticized.

She sighed helplessly and said: "Since the child has a high fever, he naturally needs immediate treatment. If you are worried that others will gossip and delay the child's treatment, this will be a lifetime event. How many children have not received timely treatment because of And burned into a fool, do you also want to see your child become like this?"

As soon as these words came out, the husband's expression suddenly changed.

He wanted to retort something, but seeing several people staring at him angrily, he couldn't say anything for a while.

Seeing that he was speechless, Yao Shu decided to defeat him from another angle.

Yao Shu sat opposite her husband and looked into his eyes quietly: "I know the reason why my eldest brother is so anxious is not just about his children and wife, but also probably because of the county magistrate."

Hearing this, he immediately looked around in horror and confirmed that there was no county magistrate here. Then he waved his hands in a panic: "That's not what I meant. I don't have a wife. Don't slander me."

"Don't worry, we are here from the imperial court, and we don't know much about your county magistrate. If there is anything, you can tell us directly, and we will not go to inform you."

Hearing Yao Shu's assurance, her husband and his brother next to him looked at each other, as if they were wondering whether they should say it?

After a while, the husband still sighed.

Seeing that he had no thoughts to speak out, Yao Shu continued: "I know you two still have concerns, but you think about your wives and children. Now, at this moment, even to treat the children Be careful, life like this is too torturous. As a husband, if you can't provide a safe home for your wife and children, what will happen in the future?"

This sentence completely broke the defensive line in the husband's heart. He still cared about his wife and children, otherwise he would not have come directly to find her in a panic at night.

I saw him sighing deeply, as if sighing out all the resentment in his heart.

The next second, he said helplessly: "This is not what we think. After all, I am working under the county magistrate. He asked us to keep a distance from you, so how can we not listen?"

"I think your county magistrate is also a reasonable person. Why is he so coercive?"

After Shen Fugui said this, he saw the two men in front of him looking at each other and smiling mockingly.

He was confused for a moment and couldn't help but ask: "Isn't it?"

"If you really knew him, you wouldn't say such things. Although he is reasonable and an out-and-out good official, the premise of all this is that we do not violate his rules. Many of his rules are incomprehensible to us, but after all, everyone has to obey his instructions, so we can't refute them." After the husband finished speaking, he shook his head gently and sighed.

He really didn't know how to speak or where to start.

The resentment in his heart was about to swallow him up.

Through his narration, everyone learned that the county magistrate was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

He himself can be said to be ruthless and ruthless, even resorting to various means to get everyone to obey his orders.

Normally, if it didn't violate his rules, he wouldn't say anything. But if he violates his bottom line, he will face severe punishment.

Shen Fugui frowned subconsciously when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask: "What kind of severe punishment will there be?"

"They want to kill the nine tribes."

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene was extremely shocked.

The men didn't know why they reacted like this, they just thought they were amazed at the county magistrate's strict methods.

Shen Nanshan was even more stunned. He turned to look at Yao Shu and asked softly: "If I am not mistaken, only the emperor can kill the nine tribes, right?"

Yao Shu nodded, which could cover up her shock at this moment.

"It is true that only the emperor can punish the nine tribes. He is just a county magistrate, and he would say such a thing. He just doesn't take the emperor and the laws seriously!" The more Yao Shu thought about it, the more angry she became. Many people died in vain just because the county magistrate overstepped his authority, and they were extremely angry for a while.

What she hated the most in her life was this kind of person who used golden hair as a command arrow, let alone made private regulations to make the people suffer innocently.

"On weekdays, the county magistrate doesn't let you get close to us, is it because he wants to consolidate his management of this place?" General Ling frowned.

Seeing the veins popping out on his wrist, Yao Shu knew that General Ling's patience had reached its limit.

If this matter is not resolved immediately, I believe the general will rush directly into the county magistrate's home in the next second and arrest him.

"Yes, although he didn't say so in name, everyone knows it. He has done so many things. If it is said to be of no benefit to us, it does help everyone slowly become rich. It is said to be beneficial to us, but it is He is squeezing us all the time. We dare not resist, because if he is caught, he will kill the nine tribes. Although we can risk our lives, how can our wives and children at home be implicated by us? "

Yao Shu also understood the meaning of his words. If the county magistrate found out that his wife and children secretly came to seek help from him, he would definitely punish them.

He can torture people and accept punishment, but he does not allow his wife and children to be tortured.

It was precisely because of this that he was so anxious that he rushed into the inn with a stick and wanted to take his wife and children back.

Everyone felt sad and didn't know what to say for a while.

The next second, only the woman's voice was heard from behind: "Now, I can confirm that these few of them are Lord Qingtian, and they will definitely not watch the county magistrate squeeze us."
