How Could Feng Caigu Possibly Keep from Stirring Up Trouble?

Cheng Xiao angrily cursed:

"Cheng Chao, you son of a bitch! Get your ass out here right now!"

"You think you're all grown up now, huh? You don't even recognize your own parents anymore."

Cheng Chao slowly walked out of the inner room, looked at them, and said, "Father, Mother, what brings you here?"

Feng Caigu burst into tears.

"Chao'er! All our belongings are gone."

We've run out of food, and the disaster victims have looted all our money. Please help us think of a solution.

And that Zhou Wanwan, she's no good, you should stay away from her.

Zhou Wanwan was the one who did all of these things.

Cheng Chao rolled his eyes and said, "Mom, you're getting senile. Zhou Wanwan is my mistress, I've told you that."

"What kind of bullshit master? A six-year-old blonde girl, have you got your brain slammed in a door?"

Cheng Chao shouted, "Mother, if you say those words again, you can go back home right now!"

Feng Caigu was choked half to death:

"You... you unfilial son, how can you not tell right from wrong?"

Qingshui County is now surrounded by those disaster victims; we barely escaped with our lives.

If you send us back, what will we do?

Cheng Chao rolled his eyes and said:

How am I supposed to know what you'll do?

You, a perfectly good county magistrate, have given up your post to come here; you must be quite incompetent.

Besides, didn't you all do these things yourselves?

Cheng Xiao glared at him fiercely and said, "Are you saying I'm being dramatic?"

Cheng Chao looked at him calmly and said:

"If you hadn't done it, how could so many things have happened?"

"Don't you understand why so many migrants have come to our counties?"

Cheng Xiao gritted her teeth and said, "How exactly did you know all this?"

"Don't let others know, or you won't do it in the first place. I do have some influence with my master."

"I can still protect you now, but if you go too far, not only will my master be unable to protect you, but I won't protect you either."

Cheng Xiao trembled with rage. "You wretched child, how dare you speak to me like that?"

Cheng Chao snorted coldly and said:

"County Magistrate Cheng, don't put on airs in my house."

By the way, Zhou Wanwan's parents live here. You can stay here if you want; I'll take you to the side courtyard.

Feng Caigu looked at him and asked, "Where do they live?"

Cheng Chao rolled his eyes and said, "Of course they live in the main house! Have you ever seen a master live in a side courtyard or guest room?"

Feng Caigu shouted angrily, "Cheng Chao, you... you've gone too far!"

Cheng Chao looked at them and said:

Anyway, keep your mouths shut and keep your people in check.

And this Cheng Yue, he's not quite right in the head. You'd better keep an eye on him, or he'll cause trouble, and don't blame me for being ruthless."

Cheng Xiao had them taken to a side courtyard; after all, they were her parents, and she couldn't just kick them out now.

Cheng Xiao walked back to her room and looked at Zheng Xing'an, saying, "Xing'an, my parents are coming to stay for a while, but don't worry, I've arranged for them to stay in the side courtyard."

Zheng Xing'an smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, as long as they An'an, I won't do anything to them."

"I'm afraid they might not behave themselves, but don't worry, I'll always be on your side."

Zheng Xing'an blushed and said, "Okay!"

Cheng Xiao hugged Zheng Xing'an tightly and said, "Don't worry, in my heart, Master comes first, but you will always come second."

Okay, I understand!

How could Feng Caigu not cause trouble?

On the first day, when she brought her breakfast, Feng Caigu looked at the bowls of porridge and a few side dishes and said:

Is this what you eat for breakfast at home?

"Bring Cheng Chao here. Is this how your family treats guests?"

"Young Master has already gone to the shop..."

"Then call Zheng Xing'an here. Is she deliberately making things difficult for me?"

Zheng Xing'an arrived quickly, and Feng Caigu looked at her clothes with envy in her eyes.

Why is it that a bandit is better dressed than her?

Feng Caigu looked at her and said, "You're going to make me and your father-in-law eat this kind of stuff? Even pigs wouldn't eat this porridge."

Zheng Xing'an smiled faintly and said, "Did you hear that? The old lady has spoken; feed these things to the pigs."

Then Zheng Xing'an left, Feng Caigu was so angry she paced back and forth. "They still haven't brought breakfast, are they trying to starve us to death?"

Cheng Xiao was furious and went straight to the prefectural government office.

Prefect Fang hadn't been able to sleep for several days; he had nothing at home and hadn't even eaten breakfast.

He looked at Cheng Xiao and asked, "Do you still have any money on you?"

Cheng Xiao shook her head and said, "That little beast didn't leave me a single penny. She'll get her revenge."

Prefect Fang was on the verge of tears. "That little devil, he's really not even pretending anymore. I'm planning to go to the White Deer Academy, are you coming or not?"

Cheng Xiao looked at him and asked, "What are you going to the White Deer Academy for?"

"He must plead guilty with a bundle of thorns on his back! What else can we do?" Prefect Fang through gritted teeth.

There's really no other way; we're almost starving.

Ever since his divorce from Madam Fang, the house has been in complete chaos; his concubine, Concubine Mei, is utterly incapable of managing the household.

Originally, there were tens of thousands of taels of silver in the account. But after Concubine Mei took over the management, she took out a portion of the silver to support her family and another portion to buy jewelry and clothes.

By the time they discovered it, there were only a few hundred taels left in the account, barely enough to pay the monthly wages.

Prefect Fang is annoyed by Concubine Mei now; she has absolutely no idea how to manage a household, and the way she manages it is a complete mess.

Now that all the food is gone, it means his family has nothing to eat.

In this situation, offending Zhou Wanwan would be a dead end, wouldn't it?

Prefect Fang quickly led Cheng Xiao to the White Deer Academy.

Zhou Wanwan frowned and asked, "What brings you two here from so far?"

Prefect Fang looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "Wanwan, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please forgive me!"

Zhou Wanwan said, bewildered, "Lord Fang, what wrong have I done? Please don't apologize to me, my heart can't take it."

Prefect Fang looked at Zhou Wanwan and said:

"My Little Ancestor, I really know I was wrong, just please let me go."

I will immediately remove all the refugees from your territory.

Zhou Wanwan snorted coldly and said, "Lord Fang, you should understand the principle of 'once a move is made, there's no going back' better than anyone else."

Prefect Fang's face turned pale instantly, and he immediately knelt down on the ground.

Cheng Xiao trembled in fright and also knelt down on the ground.

Prefect Fang looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "This time it was my fault. I promise it won't happen again. Please, have mercy on me."

Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said:

"Lord Fang, I'm sparing your life this time only because of Fang Zhiyuan."

As for you, Cheng Xiao, I know everything you did with that chief eunuch in the palace. You'd better watch yourself."

Cheng Xiao's whole body was trembling uncontrollably.

Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said, "Alright, get up! Think it over carefully, what should you choose?"
