Suddenly, someone knocked on the door from outside.

"Is it my little sister who's back?"

Hua Rong's wife quickly got up.

"Could she have fallen or injured herself somewhere?"

"Don't panic,"

Hua Rong said helplessly.

"I'll go open the door and see who it is!"

Reaching the entrance to the courtyard,

Little Li Guang opened the door.

But two henchmen were standing outside the door.

"what happened?"

Hua Rong frowned.

"Chief Song of Huazhi Village requests your presence here now."

"Should I go there now?"

Little Li Guang looked up at the sky.

It's already late at night.

at this time,

What did Song Jiang want with him?

"Do you two know what this is about?"

"We don't know,"

The two henchmen shook their heads in unison.

Although Hua Rong could tell they weren't being sincere,

But he didn't continue to make things difficult for the two lowly soldiers.

After telling the woman in the courtyard,

Hua Rong then followed the two henchmen who knocked on the door.

Heading towards the Gathering Hall on Qingfeng Mountain.

Just got to the door,

Then he saw Lei Heng, the winged tiger, walking out from inside.

"Chief Hua, I had no choice today,"

Lei Heng immediately bowed and apologized.

"Please forgive me, Magistrate Hua..."

Chapter 1069 Standoff

"What did you say?"

Hua Rong looked completely astonished.

Obviously, they didn't understand.

Very good,

Why should Lei Heng apologize to him?

"You'll find out once you go into Huazhi Village,"

Lei Heng smiled helplessly.

"It's my duty, farewell!"

finished,

The winged tiger quickly left.

Little Li Guang watched his retreating figure.

A thought suddenly struck me.

Remembering how Song Jiang had previously instructed Lei Heng to keep an eye on the newly surrendered government troops and prisoners of war...

To prevent them from escaping,

Could it be...

Thinking of this,

Hua Rong felt a surge of anxiety.

He hurriedly walked into the Hall of Gathering Righteousness.

Sure enough,

My own younger sister

She was holding her little bundle.

She sat on the chair, feeling wronged.

And sitting at the head of the table...

This is none other than Song Jiang, the current acting leader of Qingfeng Mountain!

"Brother..."

Seeing Hua Rong walk in,

Hua Xiaomei quickly got up.

"I had just reached the bottom of the cliff,"

"They were surrounded by that Lei Dutou and his men."

"Okay, I understand."

Hua Rong gave a bitter smile.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine."

Song Jiang here,

He watched the interaction between the Hua siblings with a cold face.

Seeing that Hua Rong had finished showing concern for his younger sister,

After looking in his direction,

Timely Rain then spoke with a dark expression, asking...

"Brother Hua Rong, about tonight's matter,"

"Can you explain this to me?"

"Brother Gongming,"

Hua Rong cupped his hands and said.

"My younger sister was originally an archery instructor from Liangshan,"

"She's tired of staying on Qingfeng Mountain,"

"I want to go back to Liangshan,"

"Isn't this normal?"

"normal?"

Song Jiang chuckled.

"Why not leave during the day?"

"Do you really have to wait until nightfall to go down the mountain and leave?"

"There are too many things to do in the village during the day,"

Hua Rong said in a dry voice.

“I’ve been busy,”

"That's why it dragged on until tonight..."

Little Li Guang had just finished speaking when...

Then there was a loud "bang".

But then Song Jiang suddenly slammed his hand on the table.

"Hua Rong! I've always considered you a brother,"

"But is this how you treat me?"

"So you're unwilling to marry your sister to my apprentice,"

"Then just say it directly,"

"Why bother doing this!"

"If this gets out,"

"What will the world say about me, Song Jiang?"

"Hmph, what good would it do even if my brother told you?"

Seeing Hua Rong silently lower his head and accept the scolding,

Hua Xiaomei finally couldn't hold back anymore.

He spoke up to defend his brother, expressing his indignation.

“My brother already told you that before,”

"My marriage will be arranged by my Hua family."

"Then why is it still circulating in the village these past two days?"

"Then let me marry your apprentice, according to rumors!"

"Those are just rumors, how can you take them seriously?"

Song Jiang quickly retorted.

"Hmph, you don't take it seriously?"

Hua Xiaomei sneered.

“Sir Song, you are a fine man, naturally you are not afraid of these rumors,”

"But I am a young woman,"

"You always have to consider your own reputation!"

"Besides, since it's a rumor,"

"Then please, Clerk Song, explain this clearly to the people of Qingfeng Mountain in public."

"And it will save your two apprentices from trouble,"

"Still bothering our Hua family!"

"you!"

Song Jiang's face turned from green to black with rage.

He then angrily retorted.

"Since ancient times, marriages have always been arranged by parents and matchmakers."

"What kind of women like you have the right to speak on your own..."
