Chapter 22 Chickens and Eggs
Village Chief Lu stomped his feet angrily and watched Miss Qiu turn around and leave the scene angrily, while he kept winking at Ms. Lu Wu.
However, Mrs. Lu Wu was worried about her son, fearing that if she left her son, she would suffer the consequences of the Li family.
Not only could he not see the look in Chief Lu’s eyes, but he could hear Chief Lu scolding his son and responded with dissatisfaction, “Dad, don’t scare me, he’s already like this.”
Moreover, in the eyes of Lu Wu, her son is now a child, and he will definitely become a scholar in the future. Any woman who can marry her son will be their blessing.
Although she took a fancy to Miss Qiu, who could save a lot of money for her son's education, she didn't think it was a big deal for Miss Qiu to break off her engagement with her son.
Moreover, she felt that this Miss Qiu's family was just making trouble at best. Just like last time, how could she really be willing to break off the engagement with her son?
Not understanding his stupid daughter-in-law, Village Chief Lu jumped angrily. He could only kick his son Lu Wenhan who was standing aside and cursed, "Why are you still standing there in a daze? Hurry up and chase her back."
He was a grown man, so it would have been inappropriate to chase his future daughter-in-law. At this time, he didn't care much, so he squeezed through the crowd and ran after her.
The Li family here was unwilling to give up. Li Tiezhu said, "Village chief, Lu Yuanhua ruined my daughter's innocence. You must give a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, don't blame me, Li Tiezhu, for being unkind and making trouble in the Yamen."
After some threats, he softened his tone and said, "After all, I am a scholar in the long run. This matter is really going to make a big fuss, and everyone will know about it, which is not a good thing for the long run."
Qin Zijin mingled in the crowd and listened, and couldn't help but chuckle. Li Mei's father was quite smart. He actually learned the trick she used on the edge of Qinghu Lake and threatened Lu Yuanyuan's future.
Li Tiezhu obviously wanted Li Mei to marry Lu Yuanyuan. After all, Lu Yuanyuan was a child, and the scholar would definitely not be able to run away in the future. If Li Mei could successfully marry Lu Yuanyuan, she would be a scholar's wife in the future, and his father-in-law would definitely be able to take advantage of her.
Qin Zijin's face showed a cold look, the thought was quite beautiful, but it still depends on whether she will agree or not.
Not only would she let Lu Yuanyuan lose everything, she would also not let Li Mei marry Lu Yuanyuan as she wished.
After all, she, Qin Zijin, is a person who has complaints and revenge.
Sure enough, when he heard Li Tiezhu threatening Lu Yuanyuan's future, Village Chief Lu hesitated. Lu Yuanyuan would take the exam for merit in the future, so he couldn't leave any stigma before.
At this time, Qin Zijin, who was mixed in the crowd, lowered his original voice and said in a hoarse voice, "Then why is there something wrong with Lu Changyuan? He seems to be stupid. Even if he is frightened, he will not be like this. Then Li Mei
You can still open your mouth to defend yourself."
When Qin Zijin said this, the crowd became excited.
"Yeah, what's going on with Lu Changyuan?"
"There's obviously something abnormal. It was the same just now. There were so many people here, and that kid seemed completely unaware. It was like he was possessed by a demon."
"Village Chief, look at your grandson, something seems wrong."
Village Chief Lu also realized that for such a big matter, his grandson seemed to be in a daze without saying a word. This was unreasonable.
Mrs. Lu Wu was frightened when she heard this, and she hugged her son with a pale face and shook her, "Yuan Yuan, Yuan Yuan, how are you? Are you Ying Niang?"
Village Chief Lu hurriedly waved his hand, "Quick, go ask Dr. Meng to come and take a look."
Although Dr. Meng is not a person who likes to watch the fun, he couldn't bear to have a wife who liked to watch the fun, so he must have been pulled over and stood outside waiting for his wife.
Hearing that Lu Changyuan had a problem, he had to go through the crowd and enter the room to check on Lu Changyuan's condition.
After looking at Lu Changyuan, he frowned slightly.
At this time, a voice came from the crowd again, "That pot of wine, is there something wrong with the pot of wine on the table?"
When Dr. Meng heard this, he went to the table, picked up the bottle of wine and started to investigate. Finally, he tasted it for himself before his expression changed, "Where did this wine come from?"
Everyone focused their attention on Li Mei, who was still crying.
However, Li Mei didn't know where the pot of wine came from. Seeing everyone looking at her, she shook her head in panic, "How do I know where it came from? It must be Brother Yuan Yuan, who brought it here."
Village Chief Lu looked at Li Mei with gloomy eyes, "Then why have you been like this for a long time, but nothing has happened to you?"
Li Mei glanced at Lu Yuyuan, who was still stunned, and said that she didn't believe that he was fine, but she really didn't know where the wine came from.
But he quickly came to his senses and said loudly, "Qin Zijin, it must be Qin Zijin. She knocked me out, so she must have prepared the wine."
Someone in the crowd quickly retorted, "What does this have to do with Zijin girl? Aren't you just talking nonsense and biting her indiscriminately?"
"That's right, first I saw Zijin girl talking to someone at the door of my house. How could this matter have anything to do with her?"
The more Li Mei thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, and said loudly, "It's her, it must be her. It was clearly promised that she would stay here to wait for Brother Chang Yuan, but she knocked me unconscious."
At this time, everyone also noticed Qin Zijin mixed in the crowd, and they all looked at her with doubts.
Qin Zijin had no choice but to step forward and said with a heartbroken look, "Xiaomei, I have always regarded you as my best friend. In the past, you just used me, but now, you actually throw dirty water on me.
"
Li Mei looked at Qin Zijin angrily, "It's obviously you, we agreed, I'll bring Miss Qiu over, and you'll be waiting here for Brother Yuan Yuan, but you knocked me out and asked Brother Yuan Yuan to kill me.
Put me..."
Qin Zijin shook his head, "I don't know what you are talking about at all. I know that you have always had a crush on Lu Yuanyuan. You first planned to use me to go to the Qiu family to make trouble and ruin the marriage between Miss Qiu and Lu Yuanyuan. That's all. I
I never thought that in order to ruin their marriage and marry Lu Yuanyuan yourself, you would do such a thing."
Li Mei pointed at Qin Zijin, "It's obviously you..."
However, before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Lu Wu, "I wonder what you wanted to do, you little bitch, sneaking around my door yesterday, but it turned out that you had such an idea and wanted to seduce my son.
You can dream, if anything happens to my son, I will definitely make you die badly."
Seeing that she couldn't explain clearly at all, Li Mei shook her head wildly and cried, "No, I didn't. It's Qin Zijin. Qin Zijin wants to harm me."
Qin Zijin chuckled with a look of despair, "Harm you? Why should I harm you? What do you have that is worth harming me? It's useless for me to regard you as my best friend, but you still don't forget to bite me at this time,
Aren't you just jealous that Lu Changyuan was nice to me in the past? But don't worry, I'm married now and will have nothing to do with Lu Changyuan anymore. Whatever you want, you have nothing to do with me anymore. You can do it yourself."
After saying that, she wiped her tears and turned around to leave. The onlookers consciously gave way to her. Many people sighed and shook their heads when they saw Qin Zijin's appearance.
