Chapter 2709 It’s Not Like That
Zhang Liushi's eyes were red. When no one was prepared, she suddenly stood up and took out a pair of scissors from somewhere and stabbed Wang Pangzi.
Her eyes were full of the joy of revenge, as if Wang Pangzi would die if she stabbed him, and the suffering she had endured for the past year would be rewarded.
It was a pity that Lu Zheng was standing next to Wang Pangzi. He followed Wang Pangzi and faced Zhang Liushi directly, so he saw Zhang Liushi's movements at the first time. Just when the scissors stabbed Wang Pangzi, he stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Liushi's wrist. With a force, Zhang Liushi's hand was painful and weak, and the scissors fell off, and Zhang Liushi cried out in pain.
"Liu Xiaohua! So you are Liu Xiaohua!" At this time, the butler who heard the story halfway finally appeared. He walked to Wang Pangzi and looked at Zhang Liushi in surprise.
Zhang Liushi's hand was still pinched by Lu Zheng. She recognized the butler.
The housekeeper of the Wang Mansion was a book boy hired by the family when Lord Wang was studying. He had accompanied Lord Wang since childhood and was fully aware of what happened in Langzhou.
"Tie her up!" Lu Zheng let go of Zhang Liushi and asked He Gang and others to bring the rope.
At first, no one thought that Zhang Liushi would carry a weapon. Who could have thought that an ordinary village woman would hide a pair of scissors on her body? And there were people from the yamen around her, who thought they could defend her.
But the story she told was too long and too serious, so people listened to it and forgot to defend themselves against her.
"Uncle, is what she said true?" Fatty Wang turned his head and looked at the housekeeper, asking with difficulty.
"Sir, it's not true, don't listen to her nonsense. The master gave silver to her family, and the master also told her that he could afford her for the rest of her life." The housekeeper denied it without hesitation.
"You are talking nonsense!" Zhang Liushi looked at the housekeeper viciously. If she hadn't been escorted, she would have wanted to go forward and bite the housekeeper.
"I'm not talking nonsense! I personally took the silver to your house. The master sent me to your house. Your mother and your brother and sister-in-law said that the silver was less. Your mother and your brother and sister-in-law not only asked the master to take you as a concubine, but also asked the master to find a job for your brother in the government office. Don't you know what kind of character your brother is? They drove me away, saying that they would not take you as a concubine and would not find a job for your brother in the government office. They would spread the fact that the master touched you but was not responsible throughout the county and the whole Langzhou." The housekeeper said angrily.
Even after more than 20 years, he still felt a little angry when he thought of the original incident.
"When did you come to my house? When did you say that he would take me as a concubine? Humph, now that everyone who knew about this matter is dead, you can make it up, right? Hahahaha, the people should not fight with the officials. I have always known this truth. Whatever you say is what it is!" Zhang Liushi looked unconvinced.
"After we came down the mountain, the master was still recovering from his injuries when he asked me to go to your house to talk about this. It was you who disagreed, and it was you who was greedy. Do you know how you were abducted to the mountain by the bandits? It was your brother who first used you to pave the way for himself. He wanted to go to the mountain stronghold and follow the mountain king. In the end, the bandits also abducted the master, and after those things happened, he changed his mind. Don't you know all this?" The butler frowned and continued, "Not only you, but several girls in your village were killed by your brother."
