I don't know who got splashed with excrement, but everyone's just watching the spectacle.

When they saw the Fang family member next to them, they quickly sent their servants to fetch water from the backyard and then walked towards Zhang Lao Er.

On such a cold day, Zhang Lao Er was doused with more than a dozen buckets of water. His excrement was gone, and he fainted.

Fang covered her nose, shook her head in disgust, and quickly returned to the gate of her own courtyard to call for people to carry Zhang Tingyu away.

Everyone was speculating about why the son-in-law of the Fang family was splattered with excrement and who did it.

Xiao Nan was listening to Longlong's report and almost burst out laughing.

"Longlong, how come there's poop in this space?"

"Um, I put someone else's bucket into my spatial storage while I was wandering around the village this morning."

Xiao Nan felt disgusted: "You've made a mess of the space."

"No, I sealed that bucket and let it float in the space. It had no smell and didn't come into contact with anything in the space."

"That's about right, but the thought of it makes me want to vomit."

"I was just trying my luck. I didn't splash him last time, but this time even the heavens are on my side. I have to splash him. Shameless bastard, still thinking about you, Master. Look at how he looked just now, all lustful. He completely forgot about Fang Shi."

"Did you see what Fang Shi looked like?"

"I saw it. Either he's stupid or he's too shrewd. He doesn't care about Zhang Lao Er at all."

"I don't know what the Fang family is planning, but they know Zhang Lao Er's intentions and his relationship with Zhao Shi. They have a knot in their hearts, and they are not as harmonious as they appear on the surface."

"I can tell, haha, now, will Zhang Lao Er still be able to pretend?"

"Being born a farmer, you won't die."

"Yes, good people don't live long, but bad people live for a thousand years and never die, quack quack, I'm a cute little frog."

Xiao Nan couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter.

Meng Fei and the old woman were puzzled, but seeing how happy she was, they laughed along with her.

When the three arrived in the county town, it was a little past noon. They had traveled more than 100 li in two hours, which showed that the ox had put in a lot of effort.

Meng Fei parked the oxcart in front of a small restaurant by the roadside. Xiao Nan saw that there were cabbages for sale by the roadside, so he immediately bought a few and put them on the ground for the ox to graze on.

Afterwards, they went inside and asked for a table with a view of the oxcart to sit down.

The old woman was eating out for the first time, and she looked around nervously.

Xiao Nan held her hand: "What are you nervous about? We're paying for this, they have to treat us like royalty."

"That's a way of putting people down by several generations."

"Haha, Grandma, you're so funny."

Meng Fei ordered four large bowls of noodles, all with meat sauce, as he was starving after the bumpy ride.

The old woman stopped looking at others and started eating by herself.

While eating, Meng Fei said, "Wife, the food here isn't as good as your cooking, so just make do with a bowl of noodles."

"It's much better than when we didn't have enough to eat, I don't mind."

Meng Fei felt a pang of pain in his heart upon hearing this. Damn the Zhang family, this revenge must be taken. No one can bully his woman, not even that damned one.

Want to pass the imperial examination? Keep dreaming, you damn bastard! I'll make you pay.

Meng Fei's hand holding the chopsticks snapped with a sharp crack as he exerted tremendous force.

He quickly got up and went to the back to change into a pair of shoes.

Xiao Nan smiled but didn't say anything, continuing to eat her noodles elegantly and quickly.

After the three of them ate, Meng Fei took them for a ride around in an oxcart. It was still early, and the yamen (government office) did not hold business at noon.

Although the three were dressed casually, Meng Fei's handsomeness and Xiao Nan's beauty still attracted a lot of attention.

There's truth to the saying, "Chaos breeds scoundrels, chaos breeds laborers, chaos breeds thieves."

The county town was more lively than the small town. At midday, there were vendors hawking their wares and acrobats everywhere. Xiao Nan wouldn't let the old woman go down. Among the crowd of onlookers were many thieves.

Although the old woman didn't have any money with her, her earrings and the silver hairpin in her hair were targets for thieves.

Unfortunately, they escaped the thief but not the busy cow.

A group of scrawny, skinny men, looking like skinny monkeys, walked towards Xiao Nan, whistling.

Xiao Nan curled his lip and cursed under his breath. He'd already sucked the blood dry, and he was still causing trouble.

She glanced at Meng Fei: "Husband, can you handle this?"

"Give it to your husband."

As he spoke, he pulled out a stick from the side of the cart, stopped the oxcart, got off, and waited quietly for the people to arrive.

The oxen weren't fools. Upon seeing the tall and imposing Meng Fei, they immediately stopped in their tracks, weighed the pros and cons, and turned to leave.

Xiao Nan chuckled, "A bunch of bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong."

"Longlong, go and deal with them."

"Yes, Master, we're out of manure. Is burning it the only option?"

"It's so cold, it would be good to warm them up."

"Order."

Xiao Nan watched Longlong fly away and then said to Meng Fei.

"It's almost time, shall we go to the yamen?"

"Okay, you and Grandma watch the car, I'll go in by myself."

"Ah."

The old woman patted her chest: "Oh dear, we should probably stay home less in the future. If we hadn't encountered someone like that, and it wasn't for Xiaofei, we... sigh."

"Okay, let's go out less often from now on."

“I’m talking about you. You can go out if you want, but change into men’s clothes. You’re too conspicuous like this, and Grandma is worried about you.”

"I know, I know."

Xiao Nan chuckled, and the old woman rolled her eyes at her: "You don't know, those kinds of people are not easy to deal with, they're too annoying. They're all petty people. If you were here, they would find a way to find you and ruin you in the end. Luckily we're far away. After you've finished your business, hurry home."

Xiao Nan's eyes flickered. He thought to himself, "If we can't find him, he'll either be injured or killed. Longlong is ruthless, even more ruthless than I am."

After all, in its eyes and heart there was only its master. To it, anyone who disobeyed its master would die!

Just as Meng Fei was driving the oxcart and turning back to the yamen, screams came from the next street.

Upon hearing this, Meng Fei merely frowned and ignored it.

He's not a soft-hearted person; he's only soft-hearted towards those he cares about. As for everyone else, he'll just ignore them.

After Meng Fei entered the yamen, the old woman held Xiao Nan's hand and said...

“Xiaofei is a really good person. When something happens, he can really hold his own. This family will have to rely on him to support it in the future. You should treat him well and have more children. You are an orphan, and so is he. With more children, your hearts will not be empty.”

Xiao Nan listened to the old woman's words and asked, "Is your heart empty because you have no children?"

"Yes, it used to be empty, but it's not empty now. I treat you and Xiaofei like my own children. My children are all successful and better than them. My heart is full now."

“Grandma, I don’t want to acknowledge you as my mother or grandmother because I’m an orphan. I don’t know if I will ever be able to return to my ancestral home in the future, and whether things are going well over there is unknown. I’m afraid of causing you unnecessary trouble. Right now, we’re just going to live together.”

"Yes, I trust you with your work. I know you must have your own ideas. I'm content. Those connections are useless. Let's just live our lives well."

"Yes, it's good that you think that way."

As they were talking, Longlong returned, rolling its eyes and saying resentfully.

"Master, all three of their legs have been burned off."

"Uh, only three legs were burned?"

"Yes, that's what they did, using that place to do bad things. Now that it's burned down, they can't do anything bad anymore."

"Oh, good job. You didn't kill them. It's painful for them to live too."

"Yes, the best way to punish Niu Mang is to make them lose their third leg."

"Next time, just kill them! Without a third leg, they'll only abuse women even more."

"Understood, I'll go back now and kill them."

"No need, we're leaving soon, maybe next time."

"Um, next time, how about we take care of all the thugs here too?"

"up to you."

"Yeah, I only go after bad guys!"
