Xiaowu is an official

"Little Five Officials" is a Republican comedy with a rustic flavor. It tells the absurd story of the "real and fake county magistrates" in the Beiyang period, which is very similar to the drama version of "Let the Bullets Fly". Wang Xiaowu, a villager who used to pop popcorn in Dayang Village, is a loyal and honest man. However, he has been married for many years and has no children. He is often teased and teased by others. His fierce and aggressive wife Tian Dahong often looks for various folk remedies for him to take, resulting in multiple poisonings, which is unbearable. Wang Xiaowu was devastated and decided to go to the city to seek medical advice and medicine to fulfill his dream of having children. Unexpectedly, on the way to the city, he was forcibly abducted by Jiang Xingjin, the county magistrate of Wolong County, and prepared to be used as a scapegoat. Jiang Xingjin happened to die of a sudden illness that day, so Wang Xiaowu escaped. However, the county magistrate's wife Liu Huidi did not want to lose the glory and wealth she was about to gain, and she also had to repay a large famine debt owed by her husband for buying an official position. She coerced and lured Wang Xiaowu to pretend to be the county magistrate, causing a series of ridiculous incidents. Faced with the various benefits brought by power, Wang Xiaowu was lost for a time, greedy for life and afraid of death, did bad things, misjudged the law, and harmed the people. Later, under Tian Dahong's repair, his conscience returned and he gradually embarked on the road of becoming an official to benefit the people. Being in a dangerous officialdom, Xiaowu relied on the simple kindness of his nature and the assistance of his fierce wife Tian Dahong to punish evil and promote good, repay evil with kindness and turn evil around.
