The man squeezed into the crowd and shouted with a frown, Make way! Make way!

Shu Yu turned her head when she heard the voice. Then, she threw down the bamboo pole in her hand without a word and looked at the newcomer innocently.

Seeing this, the few servants thought that they had an opportunity and quickly rushed over.

Unexpectedly, Shu Yu took a few steps back and immediately hid behind the man.

Lord, they want to harm me. Help!

The servants were about to b.u.mp into the man when they heard Shu Yus words.

Lord?

They hurriedly stopped in their tracks, but it was too late. The fist of the servant at the front came straight for Hu Lis face.

Hu Lis eyes widened, How dare you attack an officer?

He grabbed the servants hand and pulled him forward. The latter fell to the ground with a thud.

Hu Li looked at him condescendingly, then turned to look at the others, Are you guys trying to cause trouble?

The three young masters who were originally arrogant looked a little fl.u.s.tered. One of them said in a low voice, Why is an official here? If we blow this up, I wont have much freedom in Jiangyuan County. My father wont let me come out next time!

What should we do?

Lets turn the big issue into a small one. Lets muddle through it first.

Are we just going to forget about being pushed into the water? Are we not going to give that b*tch a lesson? I cant accept this!

Otherwise, do you want to go to the government?

Alright, lets just say we were playing around. We can settle the score later.

Just as the three of them finished discussing in whispers, Hu Li walked up to them. He stared at the three of them and asked, Which families are you young masters from? I heard that you want to kill someone, right? Pus.h.i.+ng people into the water and not letting them come up, huh? Youre quite bold, daring to take someones life right under my nose.

Lord, this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding.

A misunderstanding? Nearly killing someone is called a misunderstanding? Hu Li glared at him fiercely.

The three young masters hurriedly smiled and said, We were just joking. That big brother said that he was good at swimming and wanted to show us. We didnt believe him, so

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Sanzhu who had finished changing walked over.

It seemed a little awkward for them to continue talking after the victim arrived.

However, it didnt matter. The three of them quickly continued, Its nothing,

Lord. We agreed that if he performs for us, we will pay him for his hard work. Hard work money?

Lu Sanzhus eyes lit up. Was it as he took it? Did they mean to give him money?

He turned to look at Shu Yu as if wanting her to agree quickly.

Shu Yu was speechless. Where was his dignity? Right, he never had any.

Seeing Lu Sanzhus reaction, the three young masters were relieved. They knew that these people were country b.u.mpkins. As long as they were paid, they would be easy to get rid of.

Shu Yu did not speak, but Hu Li followed their words and turned around to ask her, Really? Is that what happened?

As he spoke, he winked at Shu Yu, signaling for her to stop while she was ahead. After all, Shu Yu had also kicked them all into the water. If they really wanted to pursue the matter, the other party had already been punished. Shu Yu would not be able to settle the matter easily then.

Shu Yu understood this. She looked at Lu Sanzhu speechlessly, Was it as they said?

Yes? Lu Sanzhu asked uncertainly.

Shu Yus mouth twitched. When she turned around, she suddenly smiled.

Then how is the salary calculated?
