After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

With King Xuan's words, everything is settled!

The soldiers looked at each other, unable to suppress the joy on their faces. With someone taking the blame, they could finally put their minds at ease.

Even though everyone just said they were righteous and loyal, who would want to stand up and be punished by their superiors if they could avoid being punished?

The character of Prince Xuan was well known to everyone in the government and the public. He was a well-known tough guy. With him in the front, they would definitely be able to get through it safely.

Hehehe...

After the troops and horses reunited, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They all rushed to the capital with all their might, trying to get back as soon as possible.

Oh, and by the way, I also went to the nearby Yingzhou Prefecture and sent the little girl from the Zhao family back quietly.

Standing in front of the Gaomen compound, Chu Chi held Zhao Jiuniang's hand and stared at the closed door, a little confused. Seeing Chen County Magistrate knocking on the door again, she lowered her head and asked with a puzzled look.

"Xiaojiu, did you remember the wrong place? Is this really your home?"

"If I remember correctly, this is my home. Woo woo woo..."

Zhao Jiuniang's face turned pale and she was crying like a pear blossom in the rain.

Thinking about the doorman's reaction when he saw her just now, she couldn't help but shiver all over. Sure enough, the thing she feared the most had happened. Her family didn't want her anymore!

Shen Mufeng, who was standing behind them, looked up at the door lintel of the mansion with an expressionless face.

The Tianshui Zhao family is a family that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

The older the family, the stricter the rules. If the daughter of the family disappeared inexplicably, they would definitely investigate. Even if they figured out the dirty work, they probably wouldn't accept a little girl who had been living outside and whose reputation was damaged back into the family.

Premature death is indeed a good solution.

As a new type of human, Chu Chi couldn't possibly understand the connection here. But she believed Xiao Jiu's words, and she had her own set of logical reasoning in her mind.

Since Xiaojiu didn't remember the wrong place, and the person who opened the door just now said that there was no such person as Miss Jiu in the house, then there is only one possibility that can explain it clearly.

These people robbed Xiaojiu's property!

Just like when An An was robbed of his family property by the Zhou family! Once they kicked the people out, they could take over everything. This of course also included the huge reward they should give themselves!

After thinking carefully about everything, Chu Daidai suddenly felt that he had figured out the whole cause and effect, and his temper immediately flared up.

Dare you refuse to pay my bill?

Haha, no one can do it!

Letting go of the cub in her hand, she walked forward angrily, pulled away the county lieutenant who was still knocking on the door, and kicked the door open with her tiger-toe shoes.

"Ouch!"

Several servants who were peeping from behind the door were knocked to the ground by the door panel that was suddenly kicked open. A servant who was farther away saw someone knocking on the door, so he turned around and ran back in a hurry to report to his master.

Yuqing Hall, in the courtyard of the old Lord of the Zhao family.

The old lady with silver hair and a compassionate face listened to the servant's report that the ninth young lady had returned home on her own.

She didn't know what to do for a moment.

In terms of feelings, Jiu Yatou is the only legitimate daughter of her third son, and has been raised by her since she was a child. She is good-looking and well-behaved. Although she is weak and crybaby like her biological mother, she will be a help to her family after she is raised and married.

Among so many grandchildren, the old woman had always favored this well-behaved girl, but who knew that it would bring disaster to her. Even if the evil concubine had been beaten to death, she could not get her adorable granddaughter back.

A girl from an aristocratic family was kidnapped by a kidnapper and taken for a walk. In the future, it would be a stain on her that could not be washed off. Which noble family would be willing to marry such a girl who had damaged her reputation?

Ugh.

How could she not feel heartbroken to lose a legitimate daughter for nothing? But there was nothing she could do about it. She had to consider the family's century-old reputation and the future of her remaining grandchildren.

Ninth girl, this may be your fate.

Don't blame your grandmother for being heartless.

"Go and tell the people outside the door that Miss Nine is not at home, and tell them to go back to where they came from."

After giving the order, she quickly turned the rosary in her hand and sighed helplessly several times in her heart.

The several Zhao family masters sitting at the bottom had different expressions.

The third wife, Mrs. Yu, cried so weakly that it was pitiful. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears and love, and she stared at her husband with hope. She hoped that he would stand up and fight for a way out for her daughter.

Zhao Wenchang trembled his fingers a few times, avoiding his wife's pleading gaze. Yu's pretty face instantly lost all color.

In fact, everyone in the room was quietly observing everyone's expressions, and the quarrel between the third couple was naturally seen by everyone.

Uncle Zhao Wensheng frowned fiercely.

The first wife, Mrs. Fu, lowered her eyes expressionlessly, and gently lifted the handkerchief pinched between her fingertips to cover the upturned corners of her lips.

Second Madam Sun glanced at her kind-faced but hard-hearted mother-in-law, her hypocritical and affected sister-in-law, and finally glanced at her useless sister-in-law. There was a hint of sarcasm in her arrogant eyes.

Yu is just as stupid as ever. Even at this point, she still dares to pin her hopes on others? If you, as a mother, don't stand up and fight, your daughter will really have no chance of survival!

Fortunately, Yu was still a mother after all. Even though she was timid by nature, she still stood up with trembling legs when her child's life was at stake. She fell to her knees in the hall with a plop, crying and shaking all over.

"Mother-in-law, please let Shujie in. She is not even nine years old yet, and the news hasn't leaked out of the family, so no one outside will know about this!

In the future, my daughter-in-law will keep her in the yard. If it doesn't work, she can declare that she is weak. I will take her to live in the countryside for a few years. After a while, when the child grows up, no one will find anything wrong.

Wuwuwu, mother-in-law, please have mercy on the ninth girl. She has been well-behaved and obedient since she was a child, and she knows how to be filial to her grandmother. The birthday gift that the child sewed for you by hand is not yet finished, please let her come back!

My daughter-in-law begs you, wuwuwu..."

She cried and begged, and kowtowed. This woman with a temperament as soft as dough could actually say such a long string of words.

Zhao Wenchang watched his wife cry like this, and thought about the beautiful and well-behaved legitimate daughter. Although he usually favored concubines more, he was not indifferent to the ninth girl.

After weighing it over in his mind several times, he finally clenched his fists and turned his pleading eyes to his eldest brother, the head of the family, and pleaded for his daughter.
