Chapter 540: Bad Temper

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“But he told me to…” The jailer’s eyes widened.

 

“I am the County Magistrate!” Fang Yiming shouted. “When did the southern army take charge of this office? In short, during the period when I am the

County Magistrate, no false charges will be allowed to these people in this cell!” If he could not command this, he would rather not be a County Magistrate. “Yes, sir,” Seeing that their refined and gentle County Magistrate became angry woke them up.

How could the jailer dare to disobey?

Their current County Magistrate was really bold. He dared to offend his superior. If this was the past County Magistrate, he would have already ordered him to deal with the other party and curry favor with the general.

 

Shiye only returned to Locust Village when it was almost dawn. When he returned to Locust Village, he went to report the matter in a low voice.

After reporting, Shiye couldn’t help but say, “Sanfu is really brave and fierce. He could easily throw three people out with one arm. I almost fell for his tricks and was punched by him.”

“He’s never had training nor practiced martial arts. It’s rare to see someone like this…” As Shao Shuting spoke, he smiled. “My father will like someone like him.”

“His temper…”

 

“It’s okay.” Shao Shuting didn’t care at all. “My father’s temper isn’t good either.”

Shiye was speechless.

At dawn, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan finally got up. Seeing that there was still some time before breakfast, they took their things and went to the watermelon field on the mountain to clean up the trampled watermelons that were smashed by Liu Guisheng and the others last night. They also picked some watermelons and brought them to the stall to sell.

They didn’t pick many strawberries and tomatoes today. There wasn’t enough food for the family, so they didn’t plan to sell them in town.

After breakfast, they dried the rice in the paddy field for a while before they saw the bricks and tiles being slowly delivered in horse-drawn carriages. The workers told them that they should be able to deliver everything before dark today.

At this time, in the county, the prison head had already finished interrogating Liu Guisheng and the others.

 

It was very easy to interrogate them. Farmers were afraid of the officials and officers. Liu Guisheng and the others, including Grandma Liu, shivered when they saw the officers. It was worse considering that they were still in prison.

As soon as the jailer interrogated them, Liu Guisheng and the others immediately confessed what they had done without even being beaten.

After the interrogation was over, the jailer came to find the County Magistrate.

Today was supposed to be the County Magistrate’s Day off, but he was still dealing with matters in the study room. Ever since he took office, he had been like this. He was busy with official affairs every day. Sometimes, on his day off, he would take the time to judge many cases.

He was completely different from the previous magistrate. The previous County Magistrate would handle official affairs, let alone try a case even if he had a knife pointed to his head. If they disturbed him, he would be furious. “Sir, the interrogation has been completed.” The jailer saluted and spoke at the same time.

Fang Yiming read the file and asked without looking up, “Did they really do it?”

“Yes.” As he spoke, the jailer couldn’t help but look angry and added, “Those pesky people! The general did the right thing. They should be taught a good lesson so that they would not dare to do it again. How can there be such a family in the world? That old woman married her daughter off to another family. She didn’t give a single dowry, but that’s fine. Later on, she even despised her daughter’s family for being poor and chased her entire family away….”
