"Pah, you disgusting deadbeat!" As soon as Yang Chuxia arrived, she waved her hand, and Li Wen, Li Wu, and their father came up to restrain Steward Cao.
"What are you doing? How dare you! The Lord County Magistrate is right here, and I was sent by the Lord Prefect!" Steward Cao yelled loudly, struggling and trying to break free.
Due to his connection with Old Uncle Shen, County Magistrate Shen was more lenient towards the people of Yangshu Village. Additionally, since Yang Chuxia had saved Old Uncle Shen's life, he showed extra favor to the Yang Family. Knowing this man was indeed sent by the Lord Prefect, he couldn't help but worry that Yang Chuxia and the others would offend the Lord Prefect.
He hurried forward and said, "Madam Ye! That won't do - this man truly is here under the Lord Prefect's orders."
Today, Constable Hong was also accompanied by a group of people following County Magistrate Shen. He, too, stepped forward to advise, "Xiaxia, don't act recklessly."
