Chapter 149: The New Official Sets Three Fires

The next day, Yang Ming brought Xiaoxiao to the county government office. He hadn't wanted his wife to come, as she hadn't fully recovered yet, but she insisted.

At the entrance was a large drum, seemingly there for the purpose of beating when making an accusation! Just as Yang Ming was about to pick up the drumstick, his wife said, "Let me do it!"

Xiaoxiao was very curious and wanted to give it a go. "Yang Ming, is there any particular way to beat this drum?"

"Just beat it directly."
