Chapter 256 When she was made of mud?
Chapter 256: Do you think she is a fool?
When she heard Xing Wu say that he wanted to take away the peacock and said that the peacock was a tribute, a sarcastic look flashed in her eyes.
He came to her village and almost captured her Qiongqi. If it weren't for the fact that he had a decent attitude towards the villagers and didn't threaten him with a knife, he would never have left Dajia Village intact today.
Now you actually want to take away the peacock?
Do you really think she is a piece of clay and has no temper?
As soon as she returned to the village, before Zhao could find her, she asked Li Daya to ask Zhao to bring the peacock.
Mrs. Zhao didn't hesitate. She just wanted to tell her aunt about the peacock, so she hugged the peacock over.
He told Si Qing everything that Xing Wu said after seeing the peacock today.
Finally, Mrs. Zhao looked at Si Qing with some worry and asked: "Auntie, this peacock will be taken away tomorrow, what should we do?"
Unexpectedly, Si Qing smiled and said in a sweet voice: "Why should you let him take it away? This peacock belongs to me."
"But grandma, Mr. Xing said that the peacock is a tribute from South Vietnam to the emperor. If we don't give it, we will be arrested."
Ms. Zhao didn't want to give it to her either. This peacock is so beautiful. When the tail feathers grow out, it will be so beautiful to make a fan for my aunt.
But they are just a group of ordinary people, and there is no way they can stop the officials, let alone the emperor.
Si Qing naturally understood her worries, but he just said softly: "Don't worry, you will definitely pay back the debt. This peacock is so delicate, and our village does not have the conditions to raise it. But we cannot let them just say a few words."
Just take the peacock away."
It is a beautiful idea to want to take credit for nothing.
Li Daya on the side listened to Si Qing's words and immediately understood what she meant. Grandma wanted to use Peacock to gain benefits from the government.
"Auntie, what if the government doesn't agree and takes the peacock away by force?"
In her previous life, she had not seen those powerful people treating the lives of the people as nothing for their own selfish interests. Although the county magistrate was only a seventh-rank official, he could still dominate the local area with one hand.
Li Daya was a little worried.
Ms. Zhao nodded repeatedly after hearing Li Daya's words. Apparently she was also worried about this.
Si Qing was not worried. Based on her understanding of Magistrate Zhao, although he wanted to achieve success, he was very gentlemanly and should not be able to do such a thing.
However, nothing is guaranteed, so Si Qing naturally has to be on guard. When Xing Wu comes back tomorrow, she can test the other party's attitude.
However, these ministers did not say it directly.
Instead, he looked at Li Daya: "Li Daya, how do you think we can use the peacock to get benefits from the government?"
Li Daya frowned slightly: "Auntie, I think the government servant who came today is quite reasonable. If he comes tomorrow, we can try his words. If his attitude is tough and arrogant, we will give him the peacock directly. If his attitude is acceptable,
, let’s just continue negotiating terms?”
This answer is somewhat similar to what Si Qing thought, but in Si Qing's opinion, if the other party's attitude was arrogant, she would not hand over the peacock.
She has always been willing to take soft things rather than hard things. She can take the initiative to give, but she will never allow others to take it away.
This is her last dignity as a demon king.
After Li Daya finished speaking, she felt a little disappointed when she saw that Si Qing had no reaction, thinking that Si Qing didn't like her thoughts.
But she is not discouraged. After all, my aunt is so smart that she can even subdue a tiger. Naturally, she has better ideas in her heart. It is normal for her to look down on her own proposal.
Mrs. Zhao listened to the conversation between the two, looked at the peacock with its tail feathers clipped, and was a little worried: "Auntie, this peacock has its tail feathers clipped by us. Do you think the emperor will blame us for this?"
