Not only Chen Wan'er, but also others looked at Ying Qingci in disbelief when they heard this.
Only Xie Wanyun and Ying Qinghan looked calm, knowing that Ying Qingci was not talking big words.
Although Chen Sheng was angry at Chen Wan'er's words, Ying Qingci's words now also made him a little annoyed.
His father was the third-rank minister of the dynasty, how could she insult him?
"Girl, please be careful what you say."
Ying Qingci's eyes fell on him, and she didn't have a good expression.
His parents were part of the reason why his sister was able to develop like this, but as the elder brother, he also had an unshirkable responsibility. After reading so many sage books, he might as well feed it to the dogs.
"Be careful what you say?"
Ying Qingci raised her eyes and landed on Chen Sheng.
"If that's the case, then why does this Miss Chen dare to speak so rudely?"
"I remember that I didn't have any conflict with this girl before?"
Saying that, Ying Qingci raised her eyes and said, "Oh. I remember, this girl seems to look down on ordinary people."
Chen Sheng's face turned dark. What she said was true and she had no way to refute it.
"You are so presumptuous! A mere little peasant girl actually wants to compare herself to my father. Just by saying this, I can punish you with disrespect!"
Chen Wan'er also didn't expect that Ying Qingci would speak arrogantly and say such arrogant words.
"Miss Chen, I'm afraid you won't be able to cure Qing Ci today."
When Xie Wanyun heard this, she felt faintly awake in her heart. Fortunately, she knew Qing Ci's identity. Otherwise, if she didn't have the title of County Lord, she would really be bullied by this crazy woman today.
As everyone knows, even if Ying Qingci does not have this identity, she will not be easily bullied.
"What did you say?"
Chen Wan'er looked at Xie Wanyun with a mocking look on her face. Did she really think that she was brother Linxuan's sister, so she wouldn't do anything to her?
After all, she is just the daughter of a merchant, and she is the daughter of a servant, so she should be the one begging to associate with him.
But now, he actually goes against her.
This made her feel unbearable.
"I advise you, you'd better apologize to me obediently, otherwise, you will not be able to bear the consequences."
"Really, let the county chief apologize to you, can you bear this gift?"
Xie Wanyun sneered, even if the county lord is just a title, according to the official position, he is still a second-rank official, which is still higher than the status of the minister.
"Wha...what?"
Chen Wan'er was stunned, and even Chen Sheng on the side was also stunned.
But they had heard that His Majesty had conferred the title of civilian county owner. Could it be that she was really the little peasant girl in front of them?
Thinking of this possibility, Chen Sheng's expression suddenly changed.
Xie Linxuan, on the other hand, raised his head and looked at Xie Wanyun.
Some time ago, he did hear that there was a county chief named Ying in the town. So, that Fuhui County Chief...is brother Ying's sister?
Thinking of this, Xie Linxuan looked up at Ying Qingci and then at Xie Wanyun.
No wonder, no wonder Ayun is so calm.
After all, he had always heard Ayun put Miss Ying in his mouth before. Now that Miss Ying is being targeted, how could she not speak up?
Unexpectedly, it was because of this.
"I don't know if the county lord is here, but I'm rude."
Chen Sheng looked ugly. If she was really the county princess, then his father really needed to treat her with courtesy after meeting Ying Qingci.
"I've met the county lord."
Others did not expect that the ordinary-dressed woman who came with Xie Wanyun was actually the county head.
Although Ying Qingci didn't want to use his power to overwhelm others, what Chen Wan'er just said...heh.
"Miss Chen, as my county chief, can I allow you to salute?"
"you!"
Chen Wan'er's eyes widened, but her face turned pale. Who would have thought that a peasant girl could be favored by His Majesty and even be granted the title of County Lord.
Although the county lord does not have an official position, she is titled. Although she is the daughter of a minister, her status is far inferior to that of the county lord.
Even, even if it is a father...
Now that he heard this, Chen Wan'er's complexion paled visibly.
"I'm sorry, County Master, I was just rude to my roommate." Chen Sheng raised his hand and tugged on Chen Wan'er's sleeve, signaling her to apologize quickly.
Although he is a civilian county leader, his title is real.
"By——"
Chen Wan'er was still unwilling to give in. Although he was the head of the county, he was just a country man and didn't know any rules.
"Chen Wan'er!"
Chen Wan'er felt slightly horrified when she met her brother's slightly gloomy gaze.
This... was the first time she saw such an expression on her brother's face.
"Meet...meet the county lord."
Ying Qingci turned her head, her eyes cold.
"Ms. Chen, ordinary people have the benefits of ordinary people. If there were no people, do you think you would still have the good life you have today?"
"What does this have to do with them?!"
Chen Wan'er retorted subconsciously.
"Don't your basic necessities of clothing, food, housing and transportation come from the people?"
"Nonsense, this is obviously produced by a merchant family!"
'laugh--'
Hearing her words, Ying Qingci sneered.
"If there are no raw materials from civilians, can merchants produce what you need just by relying on merchants? What's more, merchants, are they not common people?"
Ying Qingci has always known that one cannot underestimate the people. In such a huge country, the people are the most important and the most numerous.
Even merchants, compared to the royal family and the powerful, are still common people, aren't they?
Chen Wan'er choked and looked away bitterly.
Everyone present was shocked by Ying Qingci's words. Although they were scholars, they had never thought in such a deep direction.
Ying Qingci didn't look at her anymore, but focused on Ying Qinghan.
"Brother, isn't Brother Qingheng here?"
She couldn't help but feel a little strange when she saw that there was only Ying Qinghan at the banquet and no Ying Qingheng.
"A Heng was left by the teacher to make up for his homework, so I had to come alone."
"By the way, sister, how is Aling doing now?"
Speaking of Ying Qingling, they were busy with schoolwork and had very little time to see Ying Qingling. They also knew what happened to him. Although they were sad, they couldn't show it too much.
"Brother Qingling's condition is fine and he is developing towards a positive development. Now that Yunshuang is with him, his memory is slowly recovering."
"When I came to Xie's house this time, I originally wanted to go to the Sifang Escort Bureau after I left to see if there was any news about my uncle and the others."
They have been in Nanning Mansion for a long time. Although they entrusted the Sifang Escort Agency, the Escort Agency is not omnipotent after all.
After helping Magistrate Wang last time, she asked Wang Sihai to help her keep an eye on her uncle's news.
Now, I don’t know if there is any news.
Ying Qinghan sighed, "Sister, thank you for your hard work."
