Chapter 933 Gossip

Li Ge's weird behavior didn't bother everyone for too long, because soon, the two people who sent people to Lu County had new actions.

"Hey? Have you heard? It turns out that Mrs. Zhou is a second wife who gave birth to a baby in her previous husband's family."

"Really? Look at the love between Master Zhou and her for more than ten years. There is not a single concubine in the mansion. How can a second married woman have such great charm? Could it be because of that..."

"Hahaha... We outsiders don't know about this."

At the tea stalls in the streets and alleys, Mrs. Zhou has become the talk of the people, and the once praised virtuousness has now become lewd/slutty, with disdain on her face.

Mrs. Zhou went out to buy a betrothal gift, but unexpectedly, she was pointed at by people. The contemptuous eyes of those people seemed to be stuck in her heart, and she had a very bad premonition.

Even the shopkeepers of those shops had weird attitudes when they were selling her things, and they didn't see the enthusiasm of the past at all, let alone flattery.

Lu Hao has been following Mrs. Zhou, seeing this scene, he couldn't help feeling distressed, and wanted to refute her, but no one could hear his voice.

At this time, a servant girl ran over in a panic.

"Ma'am! It's not good! The Zhang family and his wife have sued our young master to the county government, and they are beating drums to appeal for grievances. Many people are watching."

Mrs. Zhou put down the silk she was selecting, and walked out of the silk shop, her eyes became more ruthless.

"Now is the important moment for Yu'er to discuss marriage, and the Zhang family must not be disturbed. You go to the backyard of the county government and post a post, saying that I have a new jade Guanyin, and I want the wife of the county magistrate to help me. "

The servant girl nodded and hurriedly went to do it.

And Mrs. Zhou also quickly returned home, and took out a white jade Guanyin statue from the storeroom. It was as big as half an arm, and it was of excellent quality. It was very expensive at first glance.

Lu Hao who followed was shocked.

"Isn't this the white jade Guanyin that my grandfather loved most when he was alive? Wasn't it stolen by thieves? How could it be in the hands of my mother?"

Lu Hao was shocked by a series of doubts, but no one could give him an answer.

"Ma'am, didn't you say that this white jade Guanyin can't be seen casually? What's more, it's a pity that such a good treasure is just given to the county magistrate."

Zhou Yu's nanny was the most trusted person around Mrs. Zhou, and she knew a lot of things, so she couldn't help persuading her.

Mrs. Zhou sighed, with reluctance in her eyes.

"As long as Yu'er and the Yan family can get married successfully, what is this thing? Besides, the wife of the county magistrate loves Jade Guanyin the most. After receiving it, she must keep it in a safe place. Outsiders can't see it, so it shouldn't be a big problem. "

After carefully packing the white jade Guanyin in the box, Mrs. Zhou sighed again.

"Over the past few years, I have sold almost all the things I brought from there, and now only this white jade Guanyin can sell, but as long as Yu'er becomes the son-in-law of the Yan family, it will be the county magistrate to curry favor with us. , what can't you get?"

Looking at such a strange mother, Lu Hao was filled with horror.

But he didn't expect that what surprised him even more was still behind.

That night, a couple was secretly brought to Zhou's house. Both of them had injuries on their backs and legs, as if they had been hit by a board.

"Hmph, you just want to ruin my son's marriage? You don't want to piss on your own virtue. There are fifty taels of silver here, which is enough for you to leave here and spend the rest of your life. You can even have a daughter. If you are sensible, take the money and get out!"

Mrs. Zhou looked down at the couple who were trampled on the ground by the guards, her face was cold.
