Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

"No… No way!"

Madam Chu reluctantly smiled and said, "Linger is gentle and obedient. She's so kind too! There's no way that she could be so manipulative."

"Really?" Chu Sihan faintly smiled. "I remember that Grandmother once said that Madam Jiang was knowledgeable, gentle, and kind."

Madam Jiang had married into the Chu Mansion when he was five.

He remembered everything that happened that year.

His words rendered Madam Chu speechless, and she could only use the excuse that she was tired to go back and rest.

"Lord, about Chu Silin…"

Once Madam Chu left, Chu Yun walked forward and spoke.

"Ignore him for now." Chu Sihan expressionlessly turned around and lightly said, "The magistrate said that he had caught a suspicious person at Deng Mansion. Prepare the carriages, and we'll go to the Police Bureau."

"Okay."

After accepting his orders, Chu Yun turned around and left.

Chu Sihan picked the document up and continued checking it. However, all he could think about was whether Lu Sheng was the person from the previous night or not.

***

The next day.

After Lu Sheng woke up, she went over and observed the vegetable patch as usual.

On the other hand, Lu Ran was packing his things and preparing to go to school to study.

Ever since Lu Jiang and Lu Xin returned from visiting Madam Liu and Lu Dahua, they did not mention them anymore.

Lu Sheng told them not to go out for these few days, and they obediently obeyed.

After watering the vegetables, Lu Sheng went to the field, carrying a hoe over her shoulders.

It was early autumn, and the rice plants were already starting to turn yellow.

However, the harvest did not seem too good.

When the busy villagers saw her casually walking toward them, they looked at her in surprise.

Remembering how she fought Sun Hu and his men the previous day, they became so scared that they turned their heads away.

"Hey, isn't this Lu Sheng?"

A thin and dark-skinned woman lifted her head and gazed at her. With a gloating expression, she said, "I thought that you would give up on your rice paddy field after your father got into jail!"

Lu Sheng recognized this woman as the wife of Lu Daming, her father's cousin. She was a mean and talkative person.

When such a serious matter had happened in the Lu Family, everyone in the village had come to console them. However, Lu Daming's family was the only one that did not.

Lu Sheng placed her hoe down, looked at the woman, and said with a smile, "If that's the case, then if you or my uncle die one day, will my cousins not want these fields anymore?"

"You…"

The speechless Madam Zheng suddenly felt like she was seeing a ghost.

Is this the same Lu Sheng who did not even dare to speak loudly before?

Lu Sheng had worn a straw hat and a short brown shirt, and her wrists were as white as snow.

Her face was so unique that no one looked like her in the entire village.

When Madam Zheng looked at Lu Sheng's smiling face and her fair skin, she became jealous.

Lu Dahua's original wife, Madam He, also had a pretty face. Everyone in the village praised Lu Dahua for marrying such a beautiful and hardworking wife.

But so what?

Didn't her beauty fade at the young age of thirty because she worked too hard?

Otherwise, Lu Dahua would not have started an affair with Madam Liu.

When she thought of this, Madam Zheng felt much better.

"Lu Sheng, don't say that I'm not taking care of you. You're already sixteen. The scholar broke off his engagement with you, and the Lord is also not going to marry you. I know a good family from my mother's side, and they would even give twenty taels as the betrothal gift. Why don't I be your matchmaker?"

That family's son was born naturally stupid, and he had yet to marry even though he was twenty-six this year.

Plus, that family only had one son. They wished for nothing else but a woman that could give birth to a child, so that the family line could be continued.

However, who would be willing to marry him?

Although he was stupid, he was still a man.

If Madam Zheng tricked Lu Sheng to go there and set the marriage in stone, she would definitely get that twenty taels!
