Chapter 476
Zheng Zhuo wanted to call her auntie, I was wrong!
The whining sound made Song Guanzhou cover his face with a palm-leaf fan and burst into laughter, "You're crying like this. When you first came to our house and bullied all the women in our house, I still remember your bully look. What kind of person is it, to dare to covet our girl? You really want to die."
Zheng Zhuo shook his head hurriedly, his eyes full of tears. The movement of his head was so big that his tears and snot almost splashed onto the hem of Song Guanzhou's skirt.
"Ouch! You damned bastard, you have soiled our young lady's skirt. I will not forgive you."
Alu shouted and slapped Zheng Zhuo in front of Mrs. Mei, Gu Miaofeng and Qi Yuenniang. Zheng Zhuo's body trembled continuously, and soon, blood slowly flowed from his nostrils.
After saying that, he pressed down on Zheng Zhuo's neck and pulled out the ball of cloth.
Zheng Zhuo wanted to vomit immediately, but when he saw that the family in front of him was not the scholarly family he had imagined, he swallowed it immediately.
Song Guanzhou turned back in disgust, "Tell me quickly, did you pee on yourself? I can't stand the smell."
Not many people can walk around the Jianshui room like Song Guanzhou, gritting their teeth.
Zheng Zhuo regretted his decision at this moment. He immediately knelt down in front of her, trembling all over. "Young Madam, I... I am blind and don't know what a great man is. I offended... I offended the women in your house. I deserve to die."
"The crime is not punishable by death, but only eighty strokes of the cane, and then you can go to Lizhou."
Song Guanzhou put away his pleasant expression and said coldly, "I know the laws of Dalong by heart. You just thought that this man was out doing something and wanted to bully me when he had time. Unfortunately, you are wrong."
Lizhou sounds like a land of plenty, but it is actually a bitter and cold place. Most people who pass through it cannot survive and either die of illness or cold.
Only then did Zheng Zhuo realize that he had offended him.
He was now kneeling on the ground, his buttocks and thighs were sore and swollen, and the pain was unbearable.
But this young lady was not a pushover. She let him talk nonsense. Song Guanzhou only heard that sentence, "Miss Shuyu and I have a secret relationship——"
The sentence "I shouldn't have come to bother you" was still on his throat when Song Guanzhou looked up immediately. Linxi stepped forward and slapped him so hard that he saw stars. Aru rolled up the cloth and pinched his cheeks and stuffed it back into his mouth.
"Young Madam, this fellow is still talking nonsense. It's because we are not doing our job well."
After saying that, the two dragged the struggling Zheng Zhuo out. The sound of beatings came one after another. Mrs. Mei was now holding Qi Yueniang and Gu Miaofeng's hands tightly, and was very worried.
Qi Yueniang still managed to comfort him, "It's okay, they are just some hooligans. We are reasonable, but they are unreasonable."
"rest assured."
The next person, Tu Da, was dragged in. Just as he let go of the cloth ball in his mouth, Tu Da was too aware of the current situation. He immediately knelt on the ground and told the whole story.
"Picked it up?"
Song Guanzhou's eyes narrowed, his thick eyebrows sharp as swords, "How dare you! If it's not our daughter's, it must be our daughter's. You, a found child, are still thinking of making up stories. Sir Tu, you are responsible for the guarding of the capital, but you do such a ridiculous and lawless thing. You really should be sent to the authorities. I'm afraid you will go in with your life but not come out with your life."
Tu Da now knew that the person in front of him was not an ordinary woman in the backyard.
He held an official position and had heard a lot about the Longen Temple. Zheng Zhuo was not aware of what the two servants had just said, but he knew it was all true.
"Please, Madam, please show some mercy and spare my life. I was just confused for a moment and believed what my nephew said—"
"anything else?"
Linxi pushed him and said, "Stop wasting time. What are you trying to hide in front of my young mistress? Because of what happened today, my daughter almost hanged herself because of the evil deeds of you and your nephew!"
Lord Tu wanted to howl to the sky and say that he was a Beijing official.
But in front of the lady of the mansion, he knew he couldn't be so indulgent.
"There is a new concubine in the house, and she has a maid with her. She heard my nephew was thinking about it and said something about it. She looked at the hairpin and said it was a gift from a young lady in the mansion, so she--"
"Mother-in-law? What's your name?"
surname?
Tu Da sighed, "I don't know her last name either. Now I just call her by her husband's name, Aunt Tong." After hearing this, Qi Yueniang looked at Lanxiang. Lanxiang bit her lip and thought for a moment, then whispered, "There's a maid in the kitchen of the mansion. I think her name is this, but I'm not sure. I've only seen her a few times."
Tu Da heard it and nodded quickly.
"I have heard a few stories about her, but I only heard that she used to work in the mansion. As for how she ended up being a servant to my concubine, I have never heard of her."
Although he said it, Tu Da only had his new concubine in his eyes, so he couldn't hear clearly.
Song Guanzhou sneered, "Now, in this matter, you have agreed to put the hairpin you picked up at random on our girl, then what is the purpose of your nephew writing a letter to the Mei family?"
Tu Da was stunned and hesitated, then Lin Shan raised his hand again.
Tu Da no longer had the Maitreya Buddha look on his face, and quickly hid himself, "I dare not say anything, I dare not say anything, it was my nephew who came up with it, to create a misunderstanding between the two sides, so that the Mei family canceled the marriage, and the girl's reputation was tarnished, so I agreed to him."
Gu Miaofeng was furious when she heard this, "How does your nephew know who our son-in-law is?"
Tu Da hid his face and lowered his head, whispering, "The Pei family is big and powerful, we can find out the truth by just asking a few people."
What's more -
"Besides what?"
Tu Dazhan replied timidly, "Besides, my nephew has attended several banquets with Mei Dalang and has learned a lot."
What is your name and what do you do?
This alone is enough.
After asking clearly, Song Guanzhou asked someone to take Tu Da out, then turned to look at Mrs. Mei and his two sisters-in-law, "Second Aunt, this is the reason, now it is clear."
"I see. This wolf had such evil intentions. My poor girl was almost forced to death."
Gu Miaofeng's eyes were filled with worry. "Guan Zhou, I understand what's going on, but what should we do now?"
Yes!
Her reputation in the capital is also not good. Yesterday, Gu Miaofeng sent people to inquire outside, and the streets and alleys were full of the Pei girl's affairs. How should Pei Shuyu live in the future?
Song Guanzhou was calm and composed, and there was no worry in his big, watery eyes. "No problem. Send Zheng Zhuo to the authorities, and let A'lu and Linxi go outside, and it won't be a problem."
"I'm afraid it's impossible to stop the gossip."
Qi Yueniang could not hide her worry and reminded Song Guanzhou softly, but the latter shook his head as if he was strolling in the garden, "The matter has been clarified, and the thief has been punished. Even if someone said bad things about our mansion behind our backs, how many people dare to come to our mansion and say it?"
"There are so many people coming and going in the various prefectures, from weddings and funerals to small banquets between sisters. If you leave room for gossip, someone will definitely come to you—"
