New widow

"It's only the second day!" Yu Yulan didn't take this matter very seriously. When asking someone to speak, and it was such an important conversation, she had to do it slowly.

"The government may not..." Mrs. Song Wu also reminded softly, and Yu Yulan already smiled: "This is a big deal that costs people's heads. How can these confessions be put in front of the government." As she said this, Yu Yulan snorted coldly. He said, "It's true that our Lord Magistrate, after working so hard for so many days, actually forgot that the identity he gave that person was that of a servant of this family."

If a servant comes forward to accuse his master, he will be punished first, and many times he may not be able to admit what he said. The situation between the magistrate and the magistrate of Chu cannot be called a close relationship, but it is just a bet that Suqiao will be forced to commit suicide. As long as Su Qiao dies, the life and death of the imposter and the truth or falsehood of what he said will not be that important.

"Okay, don't talk about this, let's just hold the funeral." Su Qiao also knew why Yu Yulan said this, but the fact that the prefect dared to do this is enough to prove that the prefect already has a backup plan. In this case, why should he still think about him? What to do next?

Yu Yulan held the funeral with great fanfare, invited nuns to recite the Seven Heavenly Sutras, and made the servants of the Chu family wear heavy mourning clothes. This made Chu Zhixian even more ruthless and unjust. In particular, Chu Zhi County was voluntarily withdrawn from the marriage by that family, so Chu Zhi County could only hide in the post house these days to avoid being talked about when he went out.

The maids and mothers-in-law were assigned to help with Yu Yulan's funeral, so there were fewer people serving Chu Zhixian. The new concubine could no longer just make Chu Zhixian happy every day, but she also had to take off her gorgeous clothes. He personally served Chu Zhixian in his clothes.

The two were facing each other all the time, and the new concubine was a sixteen-year-old young woman. Occasionally, it would inevitably make Chu Zhixian angry. However, on this day, Chu Zhixian went to see the magistrate again, but did not see her. When I came back, I saw a woman coming out of the new concubine's room. The county magistrate saw that the woman was unfamiliar, so he shouted loudly: "Who is this person?"

Unexpectedly, the mother-in-law Chu Zhixian came back. She was so panicked that she had no place to hide, so she could only kneel down. When she knelt down, several things rolled out from her clothes. The housekeeper, with sharp eyes, stepped forward to pick up the things and said to Chu Zhixian: "Master, this is my aunt. In the room.”

"Okay, I'm not at home, and there is a thief in this house." Chu Zhixian's words seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, and he said to the housekeeper: "Drag this man out for me, right at the door, slap him with twenty Board, and then send it to the Yamen to ask carefully how many things were stolen from me."

The housekeeper hurriedly responded. At this time, the new concubine had walked out of the house and knelt in front of Chu Zhixian in a panic: "Master, this is my mother. Come here to see me today. I thought that the master would leave here, so I took it." A few things for my mother to remember."

Normally, Chu Zhixian would have let it go if he saw such coquettish behavior. But today, Chu Zhixian was so upset that he would not listen to such coquettish behavior. So Chu Zhixian kicked his new concubine: "How bold, without my permission. How dare you meet my family in private, that's all, and how dare you take my things and give them away."

Although the new concubine came from a small family, she was also pampered and pampered at home. When she married Chu Zhixian as a concubine, she was pampered by Chu Zhixian for a few days. Now she was kicked by Chu Zhixian. The concubine suddenly started crying: "Master, a few days ago, I asked you if you wanted to..."

It's okay not to distinguish, but this distinction made Chu Zhixian even more angry. It's just a concubine. How dare you be so bold and question yourself? After all, when Mrs. Chu was here, when she saw Chu Zhixian getting angry, she would not speak up to tell the difference. She always had to wait until Chu Zhixian got angry before she could persuade and scold when she should.

So Chu Zhixian pointed at the new concubine and said to the housekeeper: "Since she can't survive in my house, then you can send her back to her parents' house and take back the money as well."

When the mother-in-law heard that Chu Zhi County was going to send her new concubine back to her parents' home, she hurriedly kowtowed to Chu Zhi County: "Master, Master, this matter is not my fault. I was thinking about my daughter and begged you not to send my daughter back. We How can you afford to support such a family?"

"Mom!" The new concubine cried out when she heard her mother begging for mercy. Chu Zhixian felt that the surroundings were extremely complicated, sneered, and asked the housekeeper to come forward and arrest her.

How could the new concubine be willing to leave? She was holding her mother-in-law there, and the mother and daughter were crying. During the busy time, a surprised voice came from the door of the yard: "It seems that I came here at an unlucky time."

When Chu Zhixian heard this voice, he looked familiar. When he looked up, Chu Zhixian immediately smiled. It was none other than Mr. Kuang. Mr. Kuang, who was covered in travel dust, seemed to have just gotten off the sedan chair.

Chu Zhixian first said to the new concubine: "Go back to your house first." After hearing this, the new concubine knew that she would not be driven away for the time being, so she hurriedly went into the house with her mother-in-law.

Only then did Chu Zhixian step forward and salute Mr. Kuang: "Sir Kuang, I'm counting the days. You should arrive within a few days."

"That's all, let's talk about it in the room first." Mr. Kuang also knew why Chu Zhixian asked him to come, so he turned his back on guests and made an invitation gesture to Chu Zhixian.

Instead, the magistrate of Chu County said: "That's all, we should hurry up and ask for an audience with the local magistrate."

"Things have changed again?" Mr. Kuang asked with a frown. Seeing Chu Zhixian nod, Mr. Kuang's expression suddenly turned ugly: "I don't know how this child developed such a temper and caused such a thing in the countryside. Come here."

"It's not just that." Chu Zhixian's words made Mr. Kuang look at him. Chu Zhixian thought about it and said to Mr. Kuang: "We'd better come into the room and talk carefully."

There must be a reason why Chu Zhixian changed his mind. Mr. Kuang didn't say much. He just followed him into the house. Before the butler could bring tea, Chu Zhixian talked about what happened in the past few days.

"That woman, don't you have any suspicions?" Mr. Kuang thought much more than Chu Zhixian. Chu Zhixian already smiled: "Even if we have doubts, the Qiu family has recognized her, but others cannot recognize her even if they think about it."

When a woman is in boudoir, whether she is unmarried or married, very few people will see her. The Qiu family is not a wealthy family, and there are servants scattered outside who can be identified by others.

"I didn't expect that my daughter would turn out like this." Mr. Kuang's words made Chu Zhixian look at him: "Sir, do you mean that this woman was brought here by Ling Qianjin?"

"It's not about who else she is. I don't know what she has learned in the countryside. She is simply rebellious." Mr. Kuang said coldly.
