What is the identity of Mrs. Zhen Jiajiu, Feng's family has heard a lot in Bieye this time.At every gathering, Mrs. Ninth occupies the high seat. Even the magistrate's wife has to be polite to her. The Feng family is not qualified to go up to people and talk to her.Such a noble person, who has no relationship with them, why would he suddenly invite Chu Tianshu as a guest?

Moreover, Mrs. Chen also sent a long gift list. The items on it were items that Mrs. Feng was never willing to buy and use. The items on this list alone cost more than 500 taels!I have never met her before, and the Ninth Wife is so respectful, so she must want more!

Suspicious and fearful, Feng could only thank Mrs. Ninth for valuing Chu Tianshu first, and then pushed it on Zhen Shiyin's head, saying that he went out to visit friends but did not return, and that he would discuss it when he came back.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Zhen is not an outsider." The maid was clearly prepared, and she smiled after hearing Feng's words, "My family's ninth master said that since the Jin Dynasty Zhende, the Zhen family has flourished and spread all over the world. Mr. Zhen should also belong to the same clan. If Mr. Zhen does not give up, the Ninth Master is willing to invite the old gentleman's family to Jinling to recount the genealogy and continue the friendship of the same clan."

Although the Feng family didn't know much about the outside world, they knew that the difference between the Jinling Zhen family and their Zhen family was like clouds and mud. The Ninth Master was inexplicably so friendly and easily offered the benefits of letting their family join the Jinling Zhen family tree. Make her terrified.

She was even more afraid to agree, and tried to return the gift, but the other party refused without hesitation.

"Tomorrow, my ninth wife will be waiting for Miss Chu in Ruyi Lane's mansion." The servant girl had a long face, slender eyebrows and long eyes, and looked very friendly, but when she raised her eyes at this moment, the smile on her face was hidden. Sen Leng said, "There are not many families in Jiangnan who dare not give face to Master Jiu. Mr. Zhen and our Master Jiu are both from the same clan, so we should give Master Jiu some face, right?"

Chu Tianshu looked at the servant girl coldly, and saw that she was confident and determined to win.Just like what the servant girl said, the power of the Zhen family in the south of the Yangtze River is not something they can contend with, and there is no benefit in tearing their faces apart.However, the bright ones are not good, she still has the dark ones.

"I'm sorry to trouble my mother for making this trip, I will definitely go tomorrow." Chu Tianshu put his hand on Chen Wang's arm, and sent her out of the door in a calm voice.Since she is a servant of a big family, she must also look down on the rewards from a small family like them, so Chu Tianshu didn't give her any money as usual.

Standing on the porch in front of the door, the servant woman looked Chu Tianshu up and down, as if she was very satisfied with her, she squeezed out a friendly smile: "Miss Chu has such a face and such a delicate mind. Far."

Seeing the maid left a whole yard of gifts and left with the two little girls, Chu Tianshu turned around with cold eyes.

"Sister Shu, what should we do?" Feng Shi clenched the handkerchief in his hand, knowing in his heart that even if he got Zhen Shiyin back, he would have nothing to do. "Why don't you go and ask the magistrate's wife?" Feng's eyes lit up, remembering how Madam Han treated Chu Tianshu differently.

Chu Tianshu already had some guesses in his heart.

She used to speculate that Han Yao gave her off because of a certain nobleman who stayed in Bieye, and the identity of this nobleman was ready to be revealed after attending a Youhuangxi party hosted by Mrs. Han—except for the person from Jinling Zhen Mrs. Zhen Jiu of the family, there is no other possibility.

Now the aggressiveness of the servant girl of the Zhen family also confirmed her previous speculation from another aspect: this Ninth Wife should be looking for beautiful women, relatively speaking, she doesn't care much about her background.This kind of search is still somewhat urgent, maybe because Mrs. Ninth's stay in Gusu is limited, but it is also more likely that they have some plans to urgently need a beautiful woman.

Chu Tianshu comforted Feng Shi a few words, told her not to think too much, and said that he would go to Mrs. Han's place tomorrow to find out the news.When Zhen Shiyin came back, when he heard what Feng said, he was so angry that his beard shook wildly, and he kept cursing the nine wives for bullying others.But at the end, Zhen Shiyin sat down dejectedly: "Sister Shu, if...uncle is incompetent, I can only send you back to your hometown..."

How could the Zhen family's influence in the south of the Yangtze River be compared to that of a small town official like him?It's better to send Chu Tianshu back to the countryside and marry Chu Tianshu when the Zhen family can't reach her. At any rate, with the protection of her husband's family and the Chu family, the Zhen family will always be a little bit afraid.

Instead, Chu Tianshu said with a smile as usual: "Uncle, aunt, and Mrs. Ninth may not have any malicious intentions. I have to wait until tomorrow, and I will find my own way."

In the silent summer night, people are more quiet, with light rain.

Chu Tianshu wore a black one-piece suit, the whole body was wrapped in it, only the eyes, nostrils, mouth and ears were exposed on the head, and only ten fingers were exposed on the limbs.This is an exercise suit specially produced by the Empire. It is rainproof and breathable, and has basic defense functions. It is very suitable for sneaking on such a rainy night.

Jumping out from the backyard wall by the tree shadow, Chu Tianshu sensed something was wrong.It was so late, and it was still raining, and there were actually two idlers standing in the shadows in the alley with their arms folded, their eyes clearly fixed on the back door of her house—they were afraid that she would run away overnight!

Like a civet cat walking, Chu Tianshu's figure flitted across the treetops, and quickly turned to the direction of the front door.It was silent, as if it had merged with the darkness.

Sure enough, at the entrance of the Qianmen Hutong, there was a wonton car with an oil-paper umbrella. A middle-aged man and woman were sitting under the umbrella, talking one after another, and glanced at the alley from time to time. Staring at the movements of the Zhen family.

Zhen Jiu and his wife are really cautious!This is to treat her like meat on the cutting board, so that no accidents are allowed to happen?

Deceiving too much!

After coming to this world for several years, Chu Tianshu had the urge to kill for the first time.

The people living in the east of Gusu City are the most distinguished people in Gusu City, and Ruyi Alley is in the best location in the east of the city.In the entire Ruyi Alley, there are only two families living opposite each other. On the east side of the road is the residence of Wang Yanliang, the judge of Gusu, and on the west side of the road, there is a plaque of "Zhen's Mansion".

During the day, what Mrs. Chen said about Ruyi Alley Mansion was referring to this place.

Chu Tianshu walked around in the shadow outside the fence of Zhen's house, and heard that there were many guards in the yard. Even in the middle of the night, the patrolling people still didn't rest, which made Chu Tianshu a little curious.Ordinary officials and wealthy families would not have such strict defenses. What did Zhen Jiu and his wife do to be so cautious?

However, this level of defense was nothing to Chu Tianshu. The degree of development of the human body in the empire era was beyond the imagination of the ancient humans in this world.

Sighting the gap between the patrols of the guards inside the wall, Chu Tianshu rolled down from the wall, landed silently, and quickly threw himself behind the flower tree.

As long as there is shadow, it is her safest place to live.

Although it was the first time to come here, Chu Tianshu knew that people in this era had very strict rules for living. Along the central axis of the yard, it was easy to find the residence of the hostess and hostess.

Not long after walking forward, Chu Tianshu found a brightly lit courtyard. The security force outside the courtyard was obviously stronger, and the sound of silk and bamboo could be heard from inside the courtyard.

It's so late, and there are still people in the Zhen family having a feast?Doubts arose in Chu Tianshu's heart, she went up to the roof in twos and threes, gently removed a few tiles, and fell onto the beams of the house.

As soon as he fell, Chu Tianshu felt something was wrong.Although it was dark on the beam, her eyesight was far superior to that of ordinary people, and she could see at a glance that there was a complete man's footprint in the dust on the beam!

With a somersault forward, Chu Tianshu dodged a silent kick from behind, his feet landed on the beam without a sound, and without turning his head, he grabbed the subsequent palm with his backhand.

Tightening his fingers hard, he pressed down on the opponent's wrist, Chu Tianshu turned around and looked back, and saw the appearance of the attacker behind him.

A skinny man was dressed in black just like her, with a black veil on his face. Because one arm was twisted by her, he could only crouch on the beam in an awkward posture, staring fiercely at Chu Tianshu.

Chu Tianshu raised his lips, and just as the other party felt something was wrong, she pulled away the mask with one hand, revealing a face that was not very distinctive.

do not know.

Before the other party had time to react, Chu Tianshu threw the mask into his arms and released his wrist at the same time.

As soon as Chu Tianshu let go, the man in black immediately backed away. He already realized that he was no match for this latecomer.The origin of the other party is unknown, whether it is an enemy or a friend, and he does not know if he can complete today's task.

After fastening the mask again, the man in black stared at Chu Tianshu with vigilant eyes, in a dilemma.

Chu Tianshu didn't care about his existence, but hid behind the beams and pillars, looking down.This is a three-room hall, and thick tallow candles are burning everywhere in the hall, illuminating the hall like daylight.

In the center of the hall, a group of dancers are dancing with their water sleeves. Their slender bodies are bent into graceful shapes, and their immature faces are carefully decorated, like small lotus buds just emerging on the pond, fresh and pleasant.

Sitting at the top is a 27-year-old man. He wears a golden crown and a brocade robe sweeping the floor, with a sullen look on his face. He holds a gold cup in one hand and holds a girl in transparent gauze with one arm.

Chu Tianshu's eyes fell on the young girl, and his eyebrows were tightly wrinkled.This girl looks only eleven or twelve years old, and her figure has not yet fully grown, like a young wicker, why does it have to be folded in the hands of others?

Seeing that none of the dancers in the hall looked older than 12 years old, Chu Tianshu's face became even more gloomy.

Beside the golden crown man, a slightly rich middle-aged man sat on his knees with a smile and said something in his mouth.Even with Chu Tianshu's ear strength, he could only vaguely hear the words "Jiangnan", "Discovery", and "Return to Beijing" from such a distance, and amidst the sound of music.

The man with the golden crown suddenly changed his face, raised the golden cup in his hand and threw it out, hitting the forehead of a dancer in front of him.

All the dancers stopped, kneeling on the ground trembling, and the music stopped abruptly.

"Is Gu going to spend his whole life in that village?" He kicked away the tulle girl who was kneeling beside him, and shouted angrily.
