After the yamen runners took the people away, He Dahua's in-laws finally arrived. Seeing Zheng Lizheng was at a loss, they asked weakly, "Can you not beat her with a stick? Dahua just has a bad mouth and doesn't mean any harm."

Everyone: “·······”

They were confused and didn't understand. If this wasn't malicious intent, then what could it be? This family was really... rotten to the core.

Zheng Lizheng: “…”

He glanced at them, not even bothering to curse them, and just waved his hand at them and said, "Even children know that you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."

"What's more, this matter involves the reputation of Mr. Fei's guards. I can't make the decision on this matter. You should go and ask the county magistrate for help."

He Dahua's husband's family was timid and said in a low voice: "It's not that nothing happened, why are you still fussing about it? Who will collect the food if Dahua is beaten with a stick?"

Everyone: "???"

I always feel that I didn't know this family before, and they are all weird. Nothing happened, so why bother about it? It's really...

Not wanting to talk too much with them, Zheng Lizheng didn't even look at them. He just picked up his farm tools and left. He was in a hurry to harvest the crops, so who had time to talk to idiots?

He glanced at his wife holding Grandma He's hand tightly, then smiled and comforted her: "It's okay, everyone in the village knows who you are, and they will definitely not say anything nonsense, just focus on collecting the grain."

Old Man He immediately stepped forward, bowed to the people around him and said, "Thank you all for preventing the stigma from being thrown on the He family. To repay your kindness, the He family will deliver the lunch today."

"No, no, we are all villagers, why be polite? I heard that you set up a stall in town to earn money for Xiaolang's tuition."

"It's not easy to make money, so you have to spend it sparingly. Saying thank you all the time is a bit polite. If you have money, you might as well buy some meat for Xiaolang to eat to nourish him. He's so thin that he will be gone in a gust of wind."

"Yeah, everyone would hide good things, but your family is so generous that they want to give them all to everyone."

“Hahahahahahaha…”

Everyone's words were full of kindness, and He Pozi's nose was sore and her eyes were red. She smiled and said, "The villagers are so kind, what's wrong with eating some meat? Our family can afford it. Wait, I'll bring you delicious food at noon."

The head's wife saw her expression and knew that she was a face-conscious person, so she patted her hands and said, "Go back with your sister-in-law and have a rest, don't think too much."

Mother He nodded obediently and replied with a smile: "Sister-in-law, wait for the delicious food. I guarantee that once you eat it, you will think about it day and night and want to eat it again."

Hearing her proud tone and the smug look on her face, I joked, "Don't brag too much and blow your own trumpet."

After the secret guard quietly went back and told what happened, Xia Yining immediately got out of bed, looking like he was going to fight He Dahua to the death. His chubby little black face turned red with anger.

He said fiercely, "This guy is so annoying, like an indestructible cockroach. He always makes things difficult for my mother. I am so angry."

"[○?`Д′? ○]"

Then he said to Xi Zhiyi: "You guys should have poison, right? Give me a pack and poison her to death~!!"

Leng Yue: “…”

He didn't expect that a three-and-a-half-year-old child knew about poison. He felt a little strange and looked at her carefully. The more he looked at her, the more familiar she looked to him.

Xia Yining saw his look and said angrily, "What are you looking at? Go find some poison."

Seeing her angry, Xi Zhiyi also felt an unfamiliar anger in his heart. He looked at Leng Yue and nodded, then said to Xia Yining in a gentle voice, "There are many kinds of poisons. Sometimes, it makes people feel more miserable than dead."

"Sister Ning'er, should we let this man die in prison or let him live a life worse than death?" After saying this, he looked at Xia Yining with some trepidation, afraid that she would show fear in her eyes.

Little did he know that Xia Yining was very excited and was even thinking about how to get more poison from him and put it in the space for self-defense.

Her eyes, which were like black grapes, sparkled as she stared at him with excitement and said, "It turns out that Brother Xi has so many poisons. That's amazing! Ning'er is so envious."

Xi Zhiyi: “?”

The hand holding the book trembled, and the ears turned red. A little person in my heart screamed loudly: "Ahhh~~~ Sister Ning'er called him brother, so sweet, so nice to hear hehehe..."

Pretending to be calm, he nodded somewhat embarrassedly and asked cautiously, "Sister Ning'er, don't you think this is cruel? Aren't you afraid of me?"

Xia Yining smiled and said in a flattering manner, "Hehehehehe... Don't be afraid, Ning'er knows that Brother Xi is a good person."

"How about, Brother Xi give some of the poison to Ning'er, so that Ning'er can protect herself and no one will hurt Ning'er~!"

Xi Zhiyi: “?”

He thought he had misheard, so he pressed his ears with his fingers before asking, "Ning'er wants poison? If you don't use it properly, you'll hurt yourself."

Seeing that he was somewhat unwilling, Xia Yining silently complained in her heart, "You are the child, I am already someone who can be your sister, okay~!"

For the sake of the poison, Xia Yining said coquettishly: "Ning'er will be very careful and will definitely not eat it by mistake. I will give Ning'er some poison to protect herself. Brother Xi is the best person in the world."

While acting like a spoiled child and shaking his arm, Xi Zhiyi knew that the girl was acting like this because of the poison, and his ears and neck were flushed with joy. He stammered, "Okay... okay... Ning'er wants it, Brother Xi will have someone prepare some for you and put it in a small bag."

"Just be careful when using it. I'll let Leng Yue teach you how to use it later."

Leng Yue, who was standing aside expressionlessly, said: “…”

He just felt that his master had changed completely since he met Miss Ning'er, from having mysophobia and not liking little girls to now blushing. Blushing?

Suddenly, Leng Yue seemed to understand something and stared at the two of them carefully. In addition to the sense of familiarity around Miss Ning'er, there was also the doting in the master's eyes.

His heart skipped a beat, as if he had discovered some big secret, and he nodded stiffly to show that he understood.

Having achieved his goal, Xia Yining shook his head happily. Still thinking of Grandma He, he put on his shoes and ran out.

Seeing the people in the yard, she shouted happily: "Mom~~~How did you know Ning'er missed you, hehehe...There must be a mother-daughter bond to have such a tacit understanding."

She saw that Mrs. He and her sister-in-law had red eyes. The more this happened, the more she dared not mention it. She just acted cute and interrupted them to cheer them up. In her heart, she felt bad for He Dahua and wondered what kind of poison would be best to use on her.
