Chapter 1031 -1030: Just an Ordinary Person!
“If you have demands, speak now! I will only give you this one chance.”
Liu Sisi had no amiable expression for such people.
If not for Miao Cuihua, she wouldn’t even want to say a single word more to the other party.
“What I want is very simple. I heard that Raoping County under the jurisdiction of Gongzhou City is a land of plenty, but I have no idea what the feeling of being the County Magistrate there is like.”
Raoping County is considered a mid-level county in Gongzhou, surrounded by mountains. Because of its geographical location, the region hardly suffered the spread of military calamities a few years ago, and at the same time, it has been Shou Hou’s hiding place in recent years; the understanding flower and the few children he later had all lived there.
“Shou Hou, you bastard! I’m going to fight you to the death!”
Miao Cuihua, utterly enraged, suddenly leapt out from behind Liu Sisi and pounced to tear at the other party, determined to finish Shou Hou off.

If there had been the slightest hope left in Miao Cuihua for Shou Hou, his words had now severed even that last thread of emotion!
“Let go… you shrew, let go immediately…”
It was clear Miao Cuihua was furious!
With her lunging attack, Shou Hou seemed to be in a lot of trouble as he was quickly knocked to the ground by Miao Cuihua and began to howl in pain.
Liu Sisi watched as Miao Cuihua viciously landed several punches before signally her attendants to come forward and pull them apart.
Shou Hou was finally rescued, his face bruised, his clothes torn, sporting a black eye, and blood seeping continuously from the corner of his mouth, a truly pitiful sight!
Clearly, Miao Cuihua had not held back!
“Ouch! It hurts… Yi! Miao Cuihua, you crazy woman, I’m going to fight you…”
Shou Hou also seemed to realize his situation, clutching his eye as if he was about to pounce again.
“Presumptuous! To dare such a commotion before me! Whoever dares to misbehave again will be taken down and given twenty hits of the board as a warning to others!”
She wasn’t known as the Princess for nothing; did they really think she was a weakling?
Shou Hou was immediately shocked into stillness!
He grumbled for a while but ultimately did not dare to say anything further.
Liu Sisi gave him a glare, her gaze sweeping over the group behind Shou Hou; they were so frightened that they fell to their knees, not daring to make any rash movements.
“The position of County Magistrate of Raoping County has always been appointed by the court, and even if I had the greatest ability, I couldn’t reach into matters of the court. If you truly wish to go to Raoping County, I can recommend you for the County Captain position. Of course, you can also refuse, I’ll give you that chance.”
To call it a chance seemed no different from a threat.
Liu Sisi had no desire to let him choose at all; to let such a scoundrel become an official would be a disaster for the common people.
Originally, when talking about becoming the County Magistrate, Shou Hou had a glimmer of hope.
Now, Liu Sisi’s words surprised him and he quickly agreed.
“Fine! County Captain it is. I naturally trust the Princess’s word, and as soon as I secure the position of County Captain, I will present the divorce paper at any time.”
“Heh heh! Shou Hou, you still think you can play tricks with me?”
Liu Sisi sneered, “If you know what’s good for you, write that divorce paper immediately, and from then on, the man and woman have nothing to do with each other. Then hurry off to Raoping County. Otherwise… whatever I promise you, I can take back just as easily!”
Shou Hou was frightened by Liu Sisi’s profound gaze and did not dare to dawdle any longer, quickly consenting.
The Land Officer had already received the news and rushed over, swiftly confirming everything.
Pressed her handprint, Miao Cuihua held the paper, a myriad of emotions swirling in her heart.
Shou Hou was still babbling on one side, which irked Liu Sisi greatly, “If you prattle on, I won’t mind helping you on your way.”
The sinister look in her eyes frightened Shou Hou, who then quickly left, clutching the letter of appointment personally written by Liu Sisi.
“Ah! When a person changes their heart, not even nine horses can pull it back.”
The Land Officer also seemed somewhat sentimental, “Cuihua, it’s rare for the Princess to promote you, providing you with the fortune of today. You must serve the Princess well.”
“Don’t worry, Uncle Land Officer, Cuihua understands.”
Miao Cuihua replied softly to the Land Officer and then bid her farewell.
Watching Miao Cuihua leave alone, holding the divorce paper, Liu Sisi had a mixture of indescribable feelings.
“That Shou Hou is simply inhuman, I don’t understand what that woman has to compare with Cuihua? Why does he prefer someone like her, neglecting Cuihua instead?”
“The Princess is overthinking it. Many people in this world are just like that, unable to find their place and wasting their years. They are just common folks!”
They are common folks, but this was the most sincere truth.
Though the Land Officer had offered to stay for a meal, Liu Sisi did not eat and directly returned to the Di Residence.
She had been recuperating at the farm the past few days and had not visited Chou Chou. Now her mood had finally calmed down, and spurred by the matter with Miao Cuihua, she was even more eager to see Chou Chou.
Before she even entered the home, she saw Di Ying flying over like a little swallow from afar.
“Mom, you’re finally back! Third Brother has been hoping against hope for your return. Now you’ve finally come. Quickly, let’s go inside and talk.”
Looking at the lively and adorable Di Ying, whose complexion was rosy and beautiful,
she affectionately patted her head, “What about Xuan’er? Is he still at home today?”
“He went out with Dad. Mom, do you have something on your mind? Please feel free to speak.”
It was rare to see Liu Sisi so troubled, and Di Ying quickly inquired.
“It’s nothing, just casually asking.”
Liu Sisi naturally had no intention of telling Di Ying that she had previously promised to take up the position of County Captain for a year. Better to wait for Di Yelei to return and then reveal the situation.
“Didn’t you say Chou Chou was locked up? Come on, let’s go inside and see.”
“Don’t worry, Mom. Third Brother hasn’t suffered in his own home, but he has been missing you lately, wishing to see you.”
How could he not miss her?
Chou Chou was locked in the Ancestral Hall, with only Ah-Hua and Ah-Huang, two little dogs, for company, unable to go out and play, so naturally, he wished Liu Sisi could stick around all day long.
“Mom understands. Let’s go, go see Chou Chou and see what he’s up to now.”
Liu Sisi, unable to wait, rushed off to the Ancestral Hall, accompanied by Di Ying. Thankfully, Di Ying was a cheerful character, and along the way, she kept chatting with Liu Sisi, distracting her.
“Let’s go. It’s just that I’m not sure if Third Brother is copying books or sleeping, in the broad daylight at the moment.”
Speaking of this, Di Ying covered her mouth and laughed.
It wasn’t surprising, given the circumstances, which were very likely to be Chou Chou’s current situation.
“At the moment, he should be sleeping. This child is so lazy; I really don’t know whose temperament he inherited,” Liu Sisi sighed.
