"Old lady, are you scared?"

Mother Tian, ​​who was guarding outside, heard something in the room and hurriedly brought tea into the door.

Old Mrs. Zhou shook her hand: "As old, it's useless, and I can be shocked by the thunder." She said a lot to the second child about yesterday. When she heard that the northern border and coastal areas were going to fight, she was thinking about this in her mind before going to bed, so who was uneasy and always felt that something was going to happen.

After taking a sip of warm tea, Old Mrs. Zhou's breath finally calmed down.

"Is it okay in the third room?" Old Mrs. Zhou asked Xiang Tian's mother.

Tian’s mother said: “The capital is not stable yet. The third master has not gone out, and the third wife is also in the house.”

Old Mrs. Zhou said: "What is Erya doing?"

Tian’s mother lowered her voice: “Miss Two sent someone to Dingning Marquis’ Mansion to inquire about the news, and then she was a girl in the house.”

Old Mrs. Zhou frowned: "She hasn't given up yet?"

Mother Tian didn't say anything.

Old Mrs. Zhou sneered: "I knew she had no chance when she came back from Shanxi. If Dingning Hou had a little like her, she wouldn't have almost fallen into the hands of the rebels."

Mother Tian stepped forward to help Old Mrs. Zhou rub her shoulders: "Maybe it's different now than before, but the second lady has hope again."

"Where is the difference?" said Old Mrs. Zhou, "Is the Zhang family over? Zhang was confined? What does that have to do with Ru Zhang? Even if Dingning Hou wants to retire Zhang, it will not be her turn."

"That's not necessarily true?" Tian's mother hesitated for a moment, "Marquis Dingning changed a little from the past. Not only did she invite the eldest lady's tablet to the Marquis' Mansion, but also sent a gift during the Chinese New Year. Although the Marquis didn't say a few words, she was very polite to the old lady. She also said that he had misconducted etiquette in the past, which is to admit that our Zhou family is the in-laws of the Cui family.

Since even the eldest lady’s fault can be forgiven, Dingning Hou has the intention to get along, maybe the second lady can have the chance…”

"The third girl won't be her turn if she has the chance," said Old Mrs. Zhou. "When Dingning Hou left, the second girl stood on my right, and Dingning Hou's gaze never moved."

Only then did Mother Tian realize that the old lady had been paying attention to it.

Mother Tian said, "Dingning Hou is also strange, and her thoughts are hard to guess." Suddenly, she was so kind to the eldest lady. I heard that she had visited the eldest lady in prison, and she had a bit of bad eyes, as if she had done something bad.

Old Mrs. Zhou was indeed a little strange when she thought of Cui Zhen’s attitude that day. Not only did she say she wanted to pay tribute to her son and daughter-in-law, she seemed to have some resentment towards them.

Is this arguing for Junyato? If Cui Zhen’s actions were understood six years ago, she would think Cui Zhen was more or less interested in Junyato, but at that time the Cui family was cold at that time, and Cui Zhen never went to support the store when Junyato was buried. Now there is such a sudden change?

Old Mrs. Zhou has been unable to figure it out and cannot understand this point, so she cannot easily provoke Cui Zhen, as it may ruin the current situation between the Cui family and the Zhou family.

If she figured it out, she would naturally have a way to deal with it, even if she asked Cui Zhen to do something for the Zhou family.

"Marquis Dingning went to the northern border to quell the rebellion, and it was another contribution to his return," Mrs. Zhou stood up, "It's really a bright future. Anyone with such a grandson-in-law must do everything well."

Old Mrs. Zhou walked to the window, and Miss Zhou San was cutting flower branches in the yard.

"Ruyue is becoming more and more like Rujun." Old Mrs. Zhou thought to herself. If Cui Zhen comes next time, she says Ruyue looks like Rujun. I wonder if Cui Zhen will go to see Ruyue? This time something happened to the Zhang family is an opportunity, so it will not be missed.

Old Mrs. Zhou moved her eyes away from Zhou Ruyue and fell on the manager of the outer courtyard.

The manager hurried into the yard. Zhou Ruyue and the manager's mother came up to talk. After a while, Zhou Ruyue turned around and walked into the house.

Old Mrs. Zhou said, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Ruyue pursed her lips: "Grandma, a yamen came to the door and took Xu Gui from our mansion away. She also wanted to ask my father and third uncle."

Old Mrs. Zhou's face was originally leisurely and surprised: "What's wrong with Manager Xu?" Xu Gui is the old manager of the Zhou family. He has been loyal to the Zhou family over the years and has never made any mistakes. How could he be suddenly arrested?

"Where did the yamen officer come from?" said Mrs. Zhou, "Have you asked your father before coming to arrest people?"

Zhou Ruyue shook her head: "I don't know either, but my father didn't ask someone to send a letter back, so I guess he didn't know."

"Change me," said Old Mrs. Zhou, "I'll go to the front to take a look." At this time, you naturally have to go to the front yard to ask clearly.

Old Mrs. Zhou changed her clothes and took her to the front yard. Zhou Zerui rushed over after hearing the news.

Zhou Zerui stepped forward to support Mrs. Zhou: "Mom, I don't think so. Those yamen are from Shuntian Prefecture. The person who came was Feng Anping. I heard that they were the newly appointed magistrate. How can a magistrate in charge of the yamen alarm? Let's call my second brother back!"

Old Mrs. Zhou looked at Zhou Zerui: "Have you ever asked?"

Zhou Zerui said: "The people in the yamen refused to say it." Of course he asked, but the judge Feng Tong was very strict. He asked someone to give him tea and didn't drink it. He didn't charge the money even if he gave it. It seemed that he just couldn't get it. He really didn't know this judge Feng Tong, and there was no way.

Old Mrs. Zhou calmed down: "What has the yamen investigated?"

Zhou Zerui was about to speak when Feng Anping said, "First seal the Zhou family's study room and wait for the yamen to check. The Zhou family is not allowed to leave Shuntian Prefecture from top to bottom."

Old Mrs. Zhou gasped, how could she hear this? Shuntian Mansion was not taking a manager, but came for the entire Zhou family.

Zhou Zerui was also panicked: "Why haven't the second brother come back yet?"

Old Mrs. Zhou scolded her son for being useless. She held the handkerchief in her hand and walked towards Feng Anping.

"Master Tongzong," Old Mrs. Zhou saluted Feng Anping, "Why is this? What happened to Xu Gui, he..." Could it be that he killed someone? Even if he killed someone, it would not implicate the Zhou family. Old Mrs. Zhou couldn't understand it for a moment.

Feng Anping said calmly: "Can Old Mrs. Zhou know Cui Wei?"

Old Mrs. Zhou nodded subconsciously: "I know each other, but... we are not very familiar with Cui Wei, just because the Cui family and Zhou family are in-laws."

Feng Anping looked solemn: "The manager Xu in your family has close contact with Cui Wei. He not only knows the spy who serves Cui Wei, but also helps Cui Wei manage a small village."

Xu Gui, who was being escorted, looked pale, but he pursed his lips tightly, as if he refused to speak a word.

Feng Tongshu's words and Xu Gui's appearance frightened Old Mrs. Zhou. Cui Wei was a rebel, and her family's manager had contact with the rebel.

"We really don't know this," Zhou Zerui's voice was a little hoarse. When he was involved in the rebel party, the Zhou family was finished. "Person Tong was aware of it, we know nothing about this."

Feng Anping straightened his back. Before coming, Chujiu had already instructed him that there was no need to show mercy to the Zhou family. Needless to say, this must be what Lord Wei meant.

Since this is the case, Feng Anping is not ready to be polite: "I'm afraid that this is not the final word on Mr. Zhou Wednesday, and he has to check it out before he can make it clear."
