The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1219: Chapter 1219: The Xiao Family’s Wrath

The maid swallowed and hung her head low, whispering, ”Why not invite Monarch Lu Xiang again, this time to the county office, saying that Miss feels uneasy about today’s matter. Once Monarch Lu Xiang arrives, have Mr. Tang and her in the same room. In this way, neither of them will be able to explain themselves, and Lord will surely give up.”

Lu Sanzhu, who was in the water, widened his eyes, almost unable to hold back from cursing out loud, and accidentally slapped the water surface with his hand.

A subtle sound arose, scaring Lu Sanzhu to death.

However, at the same time, the Xiao Family suddenly stood up, slapped the table fiercely, and swept the teacup onto the ground.

This noise conveniently covered up Lu Sanzhu’s movements.

”Shuixin!! Do you know what you’re saying?! Although I don’t like Monarch Lu Xiang and want to marry her off soon, I would never use such low means. She doesn’t like Tang Wenqian, so I introduced Li Wenqian and Zhang Wenqian, and that’s upright and proper. But you suggest framing her in such a way that forces the girl to ruin. Shuixin, what do you take me, Xiao Ruojun, for, huh?”

Shuixin shivered with fright and hurriedly knelt down, ”Miss, Miss Shuixin knows she’s wrong, Shuixin shouldn’t have said such things.”

”I am really disappointed. You should not stay in the Peach Blossom Forest today, just go back to the mansion first.”

Shuixin shivered but dared not say anything more and quickly got up to leave.

As soon as she left, the Xiao Family said with a stern face to Nanny Gu, ”This girl cannot stay by my side any longer, having thoughts like that can’t have been just a day or two; her mind is too venomous, and I don’t feel at ease using her.”

Nanny Gu nodded, ”The old servant understands; in the end, it’s Hewen that Miss can trust. It’s a pity she has to stay in the capital.”

The Xiao Family sat back down, rubbing her temples, ”I thought coming to Jiangyuan County would ease me a bit, but the troubles come one after another.”

Nanny Gu stood behind her, massaging her temples, ”Miss, although Shuixin’s idea was too base. But if Monarch Lu Xiang really intentionally meddled knowing that the Lord has a wife, she wouldn’t be considered a good girl, and it wouldn’t be too much for us to use some means against her.”

The Xiao Family was sullen, ”But that’s after all without evidence, if there were evidence, of course I wouldn’t let her off. Never mind, I’ll wait another half a month, if she lied to me and no one proposes to the Lu family, I’ll settle accounts with her. She better not think that a Miss of the Xiao Family is so easy to fool.”

Nanny Gu didn’t say anything further.

The two didn’t sit in the pavilion for long, after all, the Xiao Family was the host of the banquet, and since Shu Yu had left, she certainly had to go out to entertain guests.

The Xiao Family adjusted her expression and attire, then went out with Nanny Gu.

As soon as they left, Lu Sanzhu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, moved his limbs, and hurriedly swam to the other bank.

Just after he swam away, a young woman came over, looked at the water surface.

Seeing no one, she frowned and walked away.

It took Lu Sanzhu quite a while to swim to the shore, laboriously climbed ashore, stretched his body, finally feeling more comfortable.

Without saying a word, he ran to change clothes, and after changing, hurried back, peering around outside the southwest corner of the Peach Blossom Forest.

The old woman guarding the door saw him and coldly called out, ”What are you sneaking around here for? Get lost, or don’t blame us for being rude.”
