Chapter 266: The Person Above Him is Restless_1

As soon as Lord County Magistrate stepped down from his sedan chair, he saw Xiao Changyi and nearly went weak in the knees, hastily walking up to him.

"Your subordinate pays respects—"

Just as the County Magistrate was about to lift his official robe to kneel, Xiao Changyi stopped him, and all that could be heard was Xiao Changyi's indifferent voice, "Lord County Magistrate, it is improper. Even if my wife is a First-class Good Citizen, she remains a commoner. If you kneel before her, would it not be detrimental to her?"

Although the County Magistrate was sincerely anxious and fearful, he understood what Xiao Changyi meant and dared not offer a grand salute to Xiao Changyi again.

An Jing also understood Xiao Changyi's meaning, but she didn't expose it. Instead, after casting a meaningful glance at Xiao Changyi, she said to the County Magistrate, "Lord County Magistrate, you personally came to give joyous news to a common woman, I am unworthy of such honor."
