In the years of famine, in troubled times, the koi sweet wife is omnipotent

Xia Wanwan frowned again. She found that these yamen runners were very arrogant and didn't look like good people.

Then she smelled the scent of roast chicken, which came from the county magistrate. Combined with the yamen runner's words about distinguished guests, she concluded that the county magistrate must be receiving someone of noble status at this time.

Xia Wanwan took a few steps towards County Magistrate Xu and came to his side, intending to take a closer look to try to determine whether he was an honest official or a corrupt official.

Something was wrong. The county magistrate not only smelled of roast chicken, but also of wine, duck, stir-fried large intestines, and other meat dishes.

You know, the disaster in the north now is a hell-level disaster. So many people have starved to death, and yet the county magistrate is so ignorant of self-control.

An official who truly loves his people like his own children would never be willing to waste even a single bit of supplies like this. Moreover, the county magistrate is plump, and even these yamen runners are well-fed and healthy.

There are tricks, there are definitely tricks.

Her intuition was never wrong.

"You common woman, what are you looking at me for? Hurry up and have your people take these things away. You disturbed my distinguished guests. You have ten heads left for nothing."

When the county magistrate saw Xia Wanwan kept asking about him, the look in her eyes made him feel guilty and numb, which made him angry immediately, so he scolded her in a very unfriendly tone.

Seeing that a small county magistrate dared to yell at his general's wife, Zhou Yi drew the sword hanging at his waist and put it on the general's neck with lightning speed.

He coldly scolded, "Xu County Magistrate! You're so arrogant! You dare to let us take our things away? Who gave you the courage?"

"You are such a fool! I am the boss here, and you dare to talk to me like that?"

County Magistrate Xu looked at the dark shadow in front of him. Because the car headlights were too dazzling and happened to shine on Zhou Yi's back, he could not see Zhou Yi's face at all.

He thought Zhou Yi was a servant of Xia Wanwan's, and immediately shouted angrily: "If you have the guts, tell me your name. This county magistrate wants to see what kind of person you are."

However, the yamen runner holding the oil lamp beside him only gradually saw Zhou Yi's face when he heard his words, and his legs trembled with fear in an instant.

Zhou Yi's voice was deep and gloomy, and he scolded coldly: "Open your dog eyes and see who I am."

"Hmph~ It doesn't matter who you are."

County Magistrate Xu flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly, saying sarcastically with an indifferent look on his face.

Seeing that he was still so ignorant, the yamen runner holding the oil lamp immediately stepped forward, pulled his official uniform, and reminded him tremblingly: "County Magistrate! He...he...he is...he is Deputy General Zhou...Zhou?"

Because he was too scared and nervous, the yamen runner was trembling even when he spoke, and he bit his tongue several times in each sentence.

Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Xu hurriedly took the oil lamp from the yamen runner and slowly approached Zhou Yi's face.

The moment he saw the face clearly, County Magistrate Xu was stunned. The oil lamp in his hand dropped to the ground with a clatter. He quickly knelt down and apologized in fear: "I'm sorry... I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm shortsighted. I hope Deputy General Zhou will not take it to heart."

Xia Wanwan sneered and said sarcastically, "If the person standing here wasn't Deputy General Zhou, but a commoner, would that mean we could be bullied at will?"

After saying that, she turned around, got in the car and turned off the headlights in front of the trailer.

After the glaring lights were turned off, everyone realized that there were still a dozen soldiers behind them.

They stood behind, their hands already gripping the hilts of the swords at their waists. As long as anyone dared to attack Xia Wanwan, they would immediately draw their swords to protect her.

Magistrate Xu glanced at Xia Wanwan's back and felt that she was a woman, at best a maidservant beside Zhou Yi. So he looked down on her and said sarcastically, "The master is talking here, what qualifications do you, a maidservant, have to interrupt?"

"How can this be? Who do you say is a maid?"

When Zhou Yi heard him say that Xia Wanwan was his maid, he immediately kicked him in the chest angrily.

This reckless bastard actually dared to say that the general's wife was his maid.

You want to curse him to die quickly, right?

"Deputy General Zhou! I suspect there's something fishy about this county magistrate. Let's go in and meet the distinguished guest he mentioned and see who it is that deserves such a generous hospitality."

Xia Wanwan came to Zhou Yi and whispered in his ear, "I just smelled the aroma of several kinds of meat and wine on him. The drought and famine in the north are so severe now. Do you think a good official would come up with such fine and luxurious things to entertain guests?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi glanced coldly at County Magistrate Xu, then whispered to Xia Wanwan, "Fairy! Do you really smell the aroma of meat and wine on him?"

Xia Wanwan nodded and said firmly, "Believe me, there's definitely something wrong with this county magistrate. Look at him and these yamen runners, and then think about the people we've met along the way. How many of them have any flesh on their backs? Look at this county magistrate, he's so fat and overweight, and the yamen runners are all big and strong. How could they have stayed so fat without good food and wine?"

After Xia Wanwan's analysis, Zhou Yi looked at County Magistrate Xu with a colder look.

You bet, it's true. Look at how strong they all are. Among the more than 30,000 soldiers stationed in Seoul, there is not a single person as sturdy as this one.

For some reason, County Magistrate Xu felt very uneasy when he saw Xia Wanwan and Zhou Yi whispering to each other.

He gave the bailiffs a look, signaling them to go inside and destroy some of the evidence.

The two yamen runners behind Zhou Yi saw that something was wrong and, after receiving a hint from County Magistrate Xu, began to retreat cautiously.

"stop."

Xia Wanwan suddenly appeared like a ghost, approaching the two yamen runners and asked in a cold voice, "Where are you going?"

"I...we...we..."

The yamen runner looked at Zhou Yi and was so frightened that he trembled all over and spoke incoherently, unable to even speak a complete sentence.

The gentleman in front of me is Deputy General Zhou, who serves beside General God of War. Who dares to offend him?

The spit of the people in the city alone could drown them.

The woman in front of him was obviously more dominant in the conversation than Deputy General Zhou.

In other words, even Lieutenant General Zhou had to listen to her.

"I see. You're worried that Deputy General Zhou might get lost inside the county government office, so you want to lead him there, right?"

Xia Wanwan curled the corners of her lips slightly, pulled the oil lamp from their hands, and said nonchalantly: "In that case, then continue to lead the way!"

Yamen: "..."

Who among them dares to lead the way?

"Where did this vixen come from? Deputy General Zhou hasn't said anything yet, why are you butting in?"

When County Magistrate Xu saw that Xia Wanwan had seen through the clues and was trying to stop him, he immediately stood up and walked over to her, raising his hand to slap her.
