Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Kowtow Ten Times to Your Lord!_1

"Excellent!" The village chief sincerely thought Xiao Zheng’s idea was good.

Back then, An Jing and Xiao Changyi were so arrogant that they caused them so much grief, even brought suffering upon them, and even made their village the poorest one. Originally An Village was the poorest, and now they could finally retaliate against those two. Merely thinking about An Jing and Xiao Changyi kneeling before them to apologize made him feel completely at ease.

Xiao Zheng’s injuries had not yet healed, and he still had to lie in bed, so he couldn’t go with the village chief to find Xiao Changyi and An Jing. Xiao Zheng then had his eldest son take several members of the Xiao clan to accompany the village chief in the search for Xiao Changyi and An Jing.

There’s no time like the present, and when it comes to venting one’s spleen, the faster, the better. So even when they found out Xiao Changyi and An Jing weren’t at home after checking their thatched cottage, the village chief and his group still went to the mountain to look for them.

Along the way, they encountered many people from Jiuping Village. As soon as everyone heard that the government documents held by Xiao Changyi and An Jing were forged, they immediately abandoned their farming work and followed to confront Xiao Changyi and An Jing, to vent their personal anger.

Xiao Changyi and An Jing were opening up the land when they saw the people from Jiuping Village approaching them with heads held high. The two exchanged glances, and it was very obvious in their eyes: they would wait and see what happens.

"Xiao Changyi, An Jing, aren’t you going to kowtow ten times to me!" Wu Xiaoshan was also there and, as soon as he arrived, he came up with this arrogant demand to Xiao Changyi and An Jing.

Wu Xiaoshan’s smug look was something An Jing and Xiao Changyi couldn’t be bothered with.

Seeing that An Jing and Xiao Changyi were ignoring him, Wu Xiaoshan was infuriated, but thinking about how they would definitely kowtow to him soon, his anger dissipated, and he lifted his chin, saying, "Why so arrogant? Just wait until you kowtow!"

An Jing continued to ignore Wu Xiaoshan and instead turned to the village chief of Jiuping Village with a sneer, "So many of you came over; do you want to fight me and my husband?"

The village chief also lifted his chin smugly and snorted, "What use is your sharp tongue, you’ve still committed a capital crime!"

The others who came along also lifted their chins up high, all with a smug look on their faces.

An Jing thought these people were simply insane, running over out of the blue to accuse them of capital crimes, each one looking triumphantly disgusting, which completely put her off, but she still asked, "What capital crime?"

"You still won’t admit it?" The village chief laughed joyously, reveling in their misfortune, a laugh that was about to release a long-held grudge, "The head of the village was here today, I know now, he never accompanied you to the County Government to deal with any official documents. I didn’t accompany you either, what does that mean? Isn’t it that the marriage certificate and household registration you have are all forged! Forging government documents is a capital offense!"

An Jing finally understood why these people were acting this way and laughed again, very happily, "Is that all?"

The village chief was momentarily taken aback, completely not expecting An Jing to still be able to laugh, "You can still laugh in the face of death, but you’ll have your time to cry! However, if you’re willing to go door to door and kowtow ten times to each household in our village to apologize for your past actions, we might let you off and not report this matter to the authorities!"

In fact, the outcome that the village chief and Xiao Zheng had discussed was to first let An Jing and Xiao Changyi kowtow to them to ease their hearts of bitterness, and then report them to the government to have An Jing and Xiao Changyi’s heads chopped off.
