The peasant girl has a private space, and her husband is handsome.

Inside the carriage, the two stared at each other.

This is the first time Gong Yu has encountered someone he can't understand. Everyone has desires, but this woman isn't greedy for money or the path to wealth and glory. What is she after?

He rarely commented on anyone, saying, "Miss Su, has anyone ever told you that you are special?"

"Yes, it's Prince Gong."

Su Qianqian felt that the other person was also very special.

It's difficult to discern anything from the Crown Prince's face, as he always maintains a blank expression.

Even with a blank expression, her stunning beauty remained undiminished. I really didn't want to look at her any longer, for fear of arousing jealousy.

Su Qianqian felt the Prince Gong getting closer and closer, and he even reached out to touch her.

"Ah—don't come any closer!"

But then the Crown Prince took a poplar leaf directly from her head.

How embarrassing! I really don't want to stay in the carriage for another second.

"Please trouble Your Highness to have the coachman take me to Caishikou on East Street."

"it is good."

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the bustling city. Su Qianqian got out of the carriage and immediately realized that something was wrong.

A large crowd had gathered to watch the spectacle, though it was unclear what the spectacle was about.

Su Qianqian looked around but couldn't see her older brother, Su Ping'an. It seemed that the place surrounded by a lot of people was where her older brother was selling fish.

Oh no, something might have happened to my brother.

In the very middle of the crowd, someone was scrambling to fill a basket with fish.

"Consider these fish a tribute from you, you country bumpkin, to my boss."

"No." Su Ping'an was forced to the ground, but he clung tightly to the basket.

Cheng Hu looked down at the person on the ground, his voice full of arrogance, "You country bumpkin selling fish, if you want to sell fish on this street, you must know the rules of this street."

Su Ping'an cherished the fish as much as his lifeblood. Even with someone stepping on his chest and his hands covered in blood, he still clung tightly to the bamboo basket.

Because the money from selling fish can feed the family.

He also needed to buy his sister a new pair of shoes, as her feet were blistered from wearing straw sandals and she walked with a limp.

I also need to buy my younger sister a new outfit. In the county town, all the girls my sister's age are dressed in bright and colorful clothes.

Su Ping'an pleaded, "Sir, please return it to me. My family is extremely poor; they can only afford to eat tree root soup once a day."

Cheng Hu ripped the money pouch off Su Ping'an's waist and spat at him, saying, "It's your family's fault for eating tree roots, what does that have to do with me? Brothers, take the fish away."

These thugs don't care if you have enough to eat or not. If they had any conscience, they wouldn't do this kind of robbery.

Su Qianqian squeezed into the crowd and saw a burly man with his foot planted on the chest of the eldest brother, Su Ping'an, shouting, "Don't you even know who I, Cheng Hu, am? How powerful is my Green Bamboo Gang in Qinghe County! Do you think a poor wretch like you can mess with us?"

Is the eldest brother an idiot? He was beaten until he vomited blood, yet he still wouldn't let go of the bamboo basket containing the fish.

And what's Gou Dan from the village chief's family doing here? Gou Dan was helping his older brother snatch the fish basket, and his face was covered in bruises.

Those two idiots!

"stop!"

"Who, who shouted 'Stop!' How dare someone meddle in my business? Are they tired of living?" In Qinghe County, no one dared to offend the Qingzhu Gang.

When Cheng Hu turned around, he saw that the person who dared to challenge him was actually a thin young woman.

Although this young woman looked pale and was as thin as a bamboo pole, she had a fiery temper and was quite sassy.

Seeing the standoff, Mo Xiaobei turned to Gong Yu and asked, "Young Master, shall I help Miss Su?"

After all, the young master liked Miss Su, and even asked her in the carriage if she would like to become his woman.

"No need, she's better than you."

Being able to single-handedly challenge and kill Li the Deadly Flying Knife, he is certainly no ordinary person.

It's a good opportunity to see for myself just how extraordinary this woman is.

Mo Xiaobei retorted: "More capable than me? Young Master, you must be blind to love. I've heard that love can make people lose their minds."

If the young master hadn't lost his mind, how could he have thought that a frail little girl was more capable than his own subordinate?

An elderly woman selling vegetables nearby kindly stopped Su Qianqian, warning her, "Young lady, these people are not to be trifled with. They're thugs. You should take your brother and run for your lives. What's more important than your life?"

"Auntie, it's alright. Please move aside a bit so you don't get hurt."

Su Qianqian ignored the advice and stepped forward, shoving Cheng Hu away.

Cheng Hu was pushed several meters away and fell headfirst to the ground, feeling a sharp pain in his head.

Damn it, this young lady has a death wish, daring to push this local bully!

Mo Xiaobei witnessed his young master using a copper coin as a hidden weapon to hit Cheng Hu on the head amidst the chaos; otherwise, Cheng Hu wouldn't have been clutching his head and grimacing in pain.

The young master just said he wouldn't let him interfere, but he's taken charge himself. He really does like malnourished little girls like Miss Su.

Su Qianqian helped her brother up from the ground and picked up the money bag from the ground.

Dog Egg sighed, "If only I were a constable, I would definitely uphold justice for the people and bring these scoundrels who bully the people to justice."

Su Qianqian smiled and said, "Then congratulations! Your wish will soon come true."

Gou Dan thought Qianqian was joking. What time is it? Qianqian is still in the mood to joke. She's so carefree.

Fearing that his sister would be taken advantage of, Su Ping'an limped in front of her and stood in her way, saying, "What happened today has nothing to do with my sister. Please let her go. If you want to fight, fight me instead."

Gou Dan stepped forward and stood in front of Su Qianqian, saying, "Although I am not a constable yet, I will protect the people and punish evildoers just like a constable."

Su Qianqian noticed that Mo Xiaobei was also in the crowd. She recognized Mo Xiaobei and knew that he was Gong Shizi's subordinate. She quickly pushed her brother and Gou Dan, who were in the way, to Mo Xiaobei's side.

"Please keep an eye on things for me, Young Master Mo. I'll treat you to fish later."

Mo Xiaobei thought to herself: Even if you don't invite me to eat fish, I will still help take care of it, after all, my young master likes you very much.

Mo Xiaobei's words to the young master, "Miss Su, do you want to become my person?" are etched in her memory.

Cheng Hu got up from the ground, looking indignant. This skinny little woman, as thin as a bamboo pole, had actually pushed him two meters away and made him fall to the ground. This shouldn't be happening.

The woman was clearly dressed in shabby clothes with several patches, which showed that she had no money or background and was an insignificant person who could be bullied at will.

So what if she's naturally strong? Call a few more brothers to come at us. There's strength in numbers. I don't believe she can beat us.

Cheng Hu licked the blood from the corner of his mouth and said arrogantly, "Hey, this little lady is pretty good-looking. Brothers, grab your weapons and tie this little lady up and take her back to warm my bed."

Cheng Hu was full of confidence. He had just taken the stick from his accomplice when the stick was kicked away by the weak woman he had mentioned.

Su Qianqian even snatched a stick from one of them and swung it around three times in a flurry of motion, leaving onlookers dazzled.

The thugs were all knocked to the ground, their heads spinning. They hadn't even seen what happened before they collapsed. They couldn't believe that anyone in Qinghe County dared to challenge the Green Bamboo Gang.

Cheng Hu fell to the ground, a large bump on his forehead from being hit by a stick. He had never been so humiliated. But none of that mattered. The most important thing was that no one would be afraid of the Green Bamboo Gang anymore. Would they still be able to collect protection money in the future?

The local people were terribly bullied by these thugs. These people not only collected protection money everywhere, but also abducted women. They were murderers, arsonists, and all sorts of evil people.

Everyone applauded when they saw the little girl help deal with the gang of villains. They were surprised that the little girl, who was so thin and weak, was so capable.

"Young lady, you have quite the skill!"

"The heroine is mighty!"

Some people even took the opportunity to join the brawl, beating the drowning dog mercilessly.

Dog Egg clapped along, "What kind of staff technique is that, Sister Qianqian? It's amazing! If Sister Qianqian were a constable, she would definitely be incredibly awesome."

Su Qianqian casually gave the stick technique a name: "I call this the Dog-Beating Stick Technique."

The bald-headed subordinate of Cheng Hu understood: "Boss, this girl is calling us dogs."

Cheng Hu was extremely annoyed. He slapped the bald boy on the head and said, "Shut up. If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute."

Mo Xiaobei's face showed a shocked expression. Miss Su's stick technique was really amazing. He quickly said to Su Ping'an, "Pinch me quickly, I think I'm dreaming."

"Oh." Honest Su Ping'an really meant it when he asked for the pinch, pinching the most painful and sensitive spot on Mo Xiaobei's waist, which hurt so much that Mo Xiaobei's eyes welled up with tears.

This isn't a dream! No wonder the young master said Miss Su was more capable than him; it turns out it's true.

The Crown Prince has a discerning eye; he can see that.
