Chapter 46: Making a Big Noise

  Lan Niang was indignant and wanted to go over there to reason things out with this official.

  Wang Yi was walking over, still muttering some unpleasant words, when Liu Jian directly jumped over the basket on the ground and kicked out with one foot, aiming at him.

  Mo Tian Xiao Zi reacted quickly and immediately grabbed a few baskets of pumpkins, smashing them onto his body and face.

  In an instant, his whole body and face were covered with yellow pumpkin pulp, making him look extremely comical. The continuous curses in his mouth also lost all their intimidating power.

  Zhixiao knew that his father was being overly protective of his mother. However, he didn't think it was worth getting angry about. Zhixiao rubbed his head, looking at his father's angry expression.

  The onlookers who had been watching the commotion from the side came over, and some stall owners, seeing this scene, stopped doing business and gathered around. They also knew Wang Yi, and every household on this street had been cheated by him before. So today was a rare opportunity, and how could they let it go?

  The flow of people on the street also slowed down, and more and more people gathered, including some onlookers who were gloating over the family's misfortune, seemingly waiting to see what would happen to them next.

  Knowing the forehead, as the battle situation became more and more intense, she finally knew that the previous knowledge was worthy of Liu Yu's admiration, not accidentally, she was completely young and ignorant, learning from others and becoming her personality.

  It seems that stopping Mu Tian's extravagance is impossible now.

  The bailiff with a tiger's back and bear's waist got up from the ground, next to him some curious passersby couldn't help but laugh at his appearance covered in mashed pumpkin, and even someone who smelled the aroma walked to the stall and asked Erni.

  Knowing from the side stall borrowed a carrying pole, Mu Tian took out a long horse whip from the carriage, tightly grasping it in his hand, with Liu Jian and Lan Niang standing on either side.

  A look that made him want to get up from the ground, a yamen runner who was about to find his family and settle accounts, suddenly hesitated, and actually shrank back, but where could he retreat now.

  Ling Nu stood with one hand on her hip and the other pointing at Wang Yi Dao:

  "Look at this clearly, today is the day when this official comes to the street to extort money from us, it's what a scoundrel would do. But now that he, a man wearing an official uniform, has done it, what difference is there between them?"

  "Stop spouting nonsense, you woman! Don't spread such absurd rumors." Wang Yi was anxious; he couldn't let this old lady shout wildly in a crowded place.

  "What taxes does the imperial court want us to pay, you tell me? You're asking us to pay another tax, I'm a woman who can read and understand the terms issued by the imperial court." said Lan Niang.

  "Right, we've paid our taxes." Zhi Xiao said.

  "What did you tell us?" Mu Tian asked him, holding up his whip.

  This also made Wang Yi, who had always been arrogant because his father was the county magistrate, start to sweat a little.

  This isn't the first time I've seen something like this, but a family like this using such a strong approach, without any regard for his official uniform, is rare. He was taken aback for a moment and couldn't accept it.

  Wang Yi suddenly cursed and stood up, brushing off his body. He shouted at the crowd that had gathered around: "What are you all staring at? Go do what you need to do!" He glared sideways at the increasingly large crowd surrounding him.

  The crowd that had been stirred up retreated, but these people only took a few steps back. Wang Yi turned his head again, pointing at this family with his hand, raising his chin, and a determined look appeared on his face:

  "I'm telling you, you're all just a bunch of rioters. If we don't lock you up in prison and give you severe punishment, you won't be subdued by the law. Today, even if you want to leave, it's not possible."

  "What's going on again?" A middle-aged man squeezed into the crowd, and all that could be heard was him muttering to himself, asking who-knew-who.

  Now, with the knife in his hand, Wang Yi swung it around a few times, and at this tense moment, everyone was so scared that they didn't dare to make a sound. But his sudden words still sounded exceptionally clear in this silent moment.

  It's like walking down the street or visiting neighbors and greeting everyone as if they were familiar friends.

  The voice interrupted Wang Yi's footsteps as he was about to rush forward, with a smile on his face looking at the crowd that had already gathered around.

  He was wearing a green cotton shirt, and after squeezing in from the outside with great difficulty, he held a sugarcane that had been bitten several times, and didn't forget to pat his wrinkled clothes. His posture was extremely relaxed, with an air of excitement in his eyes as if he were just a bystander.
