The image of Rushuang that fell into Li Dashan's eyes at this time was so beautiful that she looked like a fairy.
This little girl, who is unkempt every day, is really a show-stopper after dressing up!
"I didn't expect Rushuang to be so beautiful, haha." Zhou Dashanren took a few steps forward to hold Zhou Rushuang's hand, but was dodged. He was not angry, but just smiled.
He knew that Rushuang had no relatives or friends in Zhoujia Village, so what if he bullied her?
Although Zhao Cheng is not easy to mess with, it does not mean that he cannot be messed with.
But in the eyes of Li Dashan, he was just a scoundrel. As long as he was given more money afterwards, it would be nothing.
So Li Dashan confidently approached Zhou Rushuang and said, "Young lady is so beautifully dressed, are you waiting for me? We really have a good understanding of each other. Master, I cherish beauty the most. Isn't this what happened? Hahahaha!"
Zhou Rushuang's eyes showed pleading: "Don't come over!"
Li Dashan was burning with desire. How could he give up at this point? He reached out to grab Zhou Rushuang's sleeve.
"Little lady, be obedient and let me take pity on you."
Zhou Rushuang hurriedly retreated to avoid it, but accidentally stepped on the corner of her skirt and fell to the ground with a cry of surprise.
Li Dashan rushed forward, hugged Zhou Rushuang, stretched out his mouth and kissed her on the face.
Zhou Rushuang struggled desperately, but she was small and weak, how could she earn more than the rich and powerful Li Dashan? In desperation, she grabbed desperately with both hands and just happened to catch the wooden basin that fell to the ground.
Zhou Rushuang used all her strength to throw the tub at Mr. Li Dashan. The man was caught off guard and hit his head. He let out an "ouch" in pain and let go of his hand.
She took this opportunity to break away quickly, got up from the ground, and ran as hard as she could to the outside of the village.
While running, Zhou Rushuang's tears spilled out like broken beads. Feelings of grievance, fear, anger and other emotions filled her heart. She didn't know she was tired at all, she just kept running, thinking that as long as she ran out, she would encounter Husband, you will be safe.
The sun has set, and darkness quickly swallows up the last ray of sunset. The surrounding scenery becomes blurry, and Zhou Rushuang runs one foot at a time.
The light blue skirt was scratched, and the hard thorns of the bush left traces of blood on Zhou Rushuang's skin. But she couldn't care about this at all, all she could think about was running.
A muddy shallow ditch caught her off guard and she fell down, covering her body with mud and water, but Zhou Rushuang didn't dare to stop at all, got up and continued running.
She ran along the village road until she reached a very wide road. Only then did she slowly calm down. She knew the road to Qinghe County. After briefly identifying the direction, she ran in the direction of Qinghe County.
At this time, Zhao Cheng was also walking back. In order to make MSG as soon as possible, he took a dozen barbarians to the wasteland outside the city to harvest wild grains and make plant ash. He left Qinghe County only after everything was almost ready.
According to Zhao Cheng's walking distance, the more than ten miles from Qinghe County to Zhoujia Village took almost half an hour. However, because it was late today and the sky was getting dark, he walked a little slower.
About halfway through the journey, Zhao Cheng managed to see a dark figure in front of him through the moonlight. He was crying as he walked. His figure looked a bit like Zhou Rushuang.
"Rushuang?" Zhao Cheng called out tentatively, and sure enough he heard the black figure crying "husband". When he came closer, he saw Zhou Rushuang was in an extremely embarrassed state, with his hair disheveled and one piece of clothing covered in muddy water. clothes wrapped around the body.
Zhao Cheng's heart sank when he saw Zhou Rushuang's appearance. Before leaving, he specifically told her not to go anywhere and just wait at home peacefully. How could it be like this?
Immediately ignoring the dirt, he took off his clothes and covered Zhou Rushuang. He reached out to hold her hand and asked, "Rushuang, don't be afraid. Tell me slowly what happened."
Zhou Rushuang went out to pour water for her, but she encountered Li Dashan who wanted to do something wrong and told her exactly what happened.
"Husband... I thought I would never see you again! Woo hoo hoo..." Zhou Rushuang cried so sadly that she was almost ruined by that guy.
In Zhou Rushuang's heart, she still longed to love and spend a lifetime with Zhao Cheng and her husband. If her innocence was insulted by this man named Li, she really didn't want to live anymore.
Zhao Cheng was furious after hearing this. This man named Li had been pestering Zhou Rushuang. If Rushuang hadn't run so fast this time, he wouldn't have dared to think about the consequences.
"Let's go! I'll seek justice for you!"
Zhao Cheng immediately decided to turn around and took Rushuang directly to the Qinghe County Government Office to file a complaint.
This man surnamed Li only relied on his family's wealth, and Zhou Rushuang was a lonely and helpless person, so he dared to act so boldly. Zhao Cheng did not believe that he could still dominate Qinghe County.
For the remaining few miles, Zhao Cheng simply carried Zhou Rushuang on his back. Zhou Rushuang had been frightened and exhausted his energy. When he saw Zhao Cheng, he finally relaxed and fell asleep on his shoulder.
The county government office is not open at night, unless there is a rebellion or the enemy attacks the city, otherwise the county government office is not open at night. If you have anything to do, you have to wait until the next morning.
Zhao Cheng carried Zhou Rushuang directly to the Xifeng Inn, which was directly opposite the Yamen. He asked for a separate room and put Zhou Rushuang to sleep.
Early the next morning, Zhao Cheng took Zhou Rushuang directly to the gate of the county government office and waited for it to open. It happened that Master He came to the county government office.
Chief He glanced at Zhao Cheng and Zhou Rushuang, who was disheveled and covered in mud, and felt a little curious, so he asked, "What's the matter with you two?"
Because Mr. He just agreed to take the risk yesterday, he has been paying attention to whether there is any major case happening, and he is a little sensitive to people wandering in front of the yamen.
Zhao Cheng said: "Sir, we are here to file a complaint. My wife was almost raped by a man named Li in the village last night, so we want justice."
In Zhao Cheng's view, although the man named Li did not succeed, he should be guilty of the same crime as if he succeeded.
Master He frowned. The words "almost" and "rape" in Zhao Cheng's description made him very unhappy.
Since it is "nearly", it means that nothing happened. If you come to the government office to file a complaint, do you really think that the county government office is opened for your family?
The Chen Dynasty's assessment of officials' governance still focused on "paying taxes and services and having no lawsuits" as the core. The prosperity and peace of the people under their rule are regarded as manifestations of the official's ability to govern.
Unless there are serious incidents such as homicides, minor matters are usually solved at the grassroots level.
The so-called "grassroots level" means that ten households constitute one li, whether in urban or rural areas, and one hundred and ten households constitute one li. The armor is as long as the armor, and the lining is as long as the lining.
As long as it is not a murder, minor matters such as disputes between villagers should be reported to the head of the Jia first. If the head of A cannot solve the problem, then report it to the head of the district. If the head of the district still cannot resolve it, then the matter can go to the county government.
