"Uh... you adults don't know something. This little girl..." Chen Ping broke into a cold sweat and stammered, still wanting to explain.
"There's no need to eat. We have our own dry food. Take off your official uniforms and hats." Baili Qingyun said coldly, "Even the maids and servants at home are like this. This shows how they treat the common people. , you are not worthy of doing this inspection either."
"Yes, yes!" Chen Ping didn't dare to defend himself, so he quickly took off his official uniform and hat, and carefully placed his trembling hands on the table.
When the officials saw the county master showing off his power, they didn't dare to breathe loudly. They stared blankly at Chen Ping's embarrassing exit, and the little girl followed quietly.
"Uh... Sir, the food over there has been prepared. Although it is shabby, it is always delicious. Look..." It was an old man who cautiously asked for instructions.
"Stop talking nonsense and serve it quickly. This man is going to starve to death. Get some water, even cold water. Smoke is coming out of his throat!" Li Tanhua patted the table and said.
He hid from Ouyang Yunyi all the way, but couldn't hide when he reached his destination. He wanted to stay in the military camp, but Qiuyue forcibly pulled him over. As a girl, she was not suitable to stay in the military camp.
The two of them didn't start a fight. It was impossible for them to start a fight. They were both sons and daughters of the world, and their conversation was very speculative, so after a few drinks, they immediately turned enemies into friends.
Qiuyue was very curious, Li Tanhua, you are such a hero, why do you avoid that boy Ouyang Yunyi? Or do you have a grudge against the Ouyang family?
Naturally, Li Tanhua would not tell her the reason, which made Qiuyue curious all the way...
"You're as fat as a pig. You won't starve to death even if you skip one meal!" Ouyang Yunyi said angrily, deliberately trying to anger Li Tanhua so that he would have a reason to beat him.
"That's right." Li Tanhua immediately gave up.
Speaking of which, there are only a few people in the world who can make him give in, and they are all in the Ouyang family...
After a while, he saw the little girl bringing up a pot of stewed carp. Ouyang Yunyi was so angry that his nose was crooked, "Why is it Chen Pin who instigated you again? Where are the others? Let him take care of you!"
"Oh." The little girl put down the fish and turned around and ran away.
"Please take a seat, everyone. Let's chat while we eat." Baili Qingyun also likes to eat fish. He smelled the fragrance of fish and salivated in his mouth. When he saw those officials who were still standing, he even asked them to sit down. Come down and eat together.
Yes, yes, a few people hurriedly apologized and sat down, but they were still sitting on pins and needles. It was said that the old man had just taken off the inspection hat of Chen Inspector when he arrived. It seemed that the big guy was also in trouble and was in a very bad situation.
The main reason is that Inspector Chen has not made any mistakes. He has been working conscientiously here, and there is no credit but hard work.
But your eldest master jerked him off with just a casual word...it shows that you are also a confused official! There's no future for everyone following you. It's better to just leave and save yourself the trouble of being here!
Although it was just stewed carp with no seasonings, it was fresh fish caught in Xuanming Lake. It was fat and delicious. Several people were also hungry, and they all ate it very sweetly.
Suddenly I heard a noise coming from outside, but it was a woman's voice, "Don't stop me! Otherwise I'll slap you hard! What's wrong with the county magistrate? Is the county magistrate so unreasonable? I want to Ask him personally why he dismissed you from office!"
"My aunt, you must not do this. This county man is the brother of our Governor Xiao. He is a hero who follows the tiger and follows the dragon. Do you think he is an ordinary person? You must know that if you dare to hit me, he can I dare to hit you with a wooden board!" It was Chen Ping's voice.
"Do I care if he is a dragon or a tiger? In front of me, a dragon has to be coiled up and a tiger has to squat. If I annoy my mother, I will be served with a stick! What about Governor Xiao? Could it be that he is also a Unreasonable?" As the voice got louder, a set of heavy footsteps got closer and closer.
"Who is the eldest man of thousands of miles who has just served as my man's son-in-law?" Then he saw a fat woman with a strong back and a strong waist striding in. A pair of copper bell-like eyes glanced at everyone, making everyone feel chills down their spines. Do you have?
"Sister-in-law, you are..." Baili Qingyun, such a cold person, even smiled to talk to her.
"I am my man's wife!" the woman shouted loudly, "I ask you, why did you terminate my man's official position? What mistake did he make!"
"Oh...it's Mrs. Chen, please sit down and talk." Baili was very polite.
"Hey, how dare I, a civilian girl!" The woman pouted, "How can I, a civilian girl, have a place to sit in front of you? Besides, I don't have such a big butt as a civilian girl!"
The language is quite vulgar.
"Sister-in-law, you shouldn't be so proud if you yell without asking anything about it!" Ouyang Yunyi said, "Is your man, Chen Ping, still a human being when he orders such a young sister to do things? He! And he beats and scolds her at every turn! The little girl and her mother, this is what human beings do? He is not qualified as a human being, let alone an official!"
"Huh?" Sister-in-law Chen was slightly startled when she heard this, then turned around and glared at Chen Ping, "Who are you going to beat up and scold, you bitch?"
"No, no!" Chen Ping turned pale, shook his head and backed away.
"Daddy just said he was going to beat mom and me." The little girl suddenly said.
"Oh, I'll give you a thousand cuts!" Sister-in-law Chen was furious. She raised her hand and slapped Chen Ping in a circle!
"You, an official, are as miserable as a beggar. It's just that we, mother and daughter, are following you to endure hardships in this land where no one even poops. You treat us two as servants and make me do it." You cook and entertain guests, and ask your daughter to bring tea and water to fill the girl's pocket, but you still want to beat us?"
After that, he slapped him again. This time, Chen Ping was on guard and dodged sideways.
Ji Chi said with a pale face, "You see, you are a woman who really doesn't understand any etiquette. What are you talking about in front of adults! Even if I am my husband, if there is anything wrong with me, you can just hit me in the back a few times." What's the point of beating me up in public?"
Only then did Baili and others realize that there was a misunderstanding. The little girl Qingqing was Chen Ping's biological daughter, and the one cooking in the kitchen was his wife. No wonder she was shouting and drinking.
As for what he said before about hitting someone's mother-in-law, it was actually just bragging and showing off... Now that he was slapped back to his original shape, he was very embarrassed.
"I see, it's really my fault." Baili also felt quite embarrassed. He only looked at what was in front of him and dismissed Chen Ping's official position without asking any reasons. It was really too rash.
"Mrs. Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work." She bowed to Sister-in-law Chen, then personally held up Chen Ping's official uniform and official hat, and handed it to him with both hands, "Mr. Chen, I was reckless, little brother. I apologize to you. , If you blame my little brother, you have nothing to say. If you don’t blame me, please change your clothes and take a seat, and ask for advice on other things!"
"No blame, no blame!" Chen Ping's pale face instantly turned red, and he quickly took over the official uniform, "Your Majesty, what you said really offends me. I am a minor in the first place, so how can I blame you, sir?"
