Chapter 127 Thrilling
No, the moment Mrs. Xu saw Xia Zihan, her heart was pounding and she had an idea.
County Master Chu Yu is the only bloodline of Mr. Chu Ge. When she gets married in the future, everything in the Chu family will belong to County Master Chu Yu. Moreover, she is also backed by the Xia family from a farming and studying family in Jiangning. She comes from a scholarly family. He is also the county head personally appointed by the emperor.
Also, she had heard about the house and farm that the emperor had given to Xia Zihan three years ago.
Those two places together are worth more than ten thousand taels of silver.
Her mother's family had been in the capital for so many years, but they had not managed to save a farm on the outskirts of the capital, so County Master Chu Yu didn't have to do anything to get it.
It really makes people envious and jealous.
Xia Zihan has wealth, status, and status, and everything meets the standards that Mrs. Xu considers for her nephew and daughter-in-law.
Therefore, even though she knew that the occasion was not right, Mrs. Xu couldn't help but couldn't help but propose marriage to Mrs. Chu. Even when she heard that Xia Zihan was engaged, she couldn't help but murmured a few more words, hoping for a miracle.
Her sister-in-law, Mrs. Wan, who was following her, covered her face with a handkerchief, feeling ashamed.
How could someone like this know that the other party is engaged and still act as a matchmaker?
What a shame.
Mrs. Liao despised Mrs. Xu and couldn't help but sneer at her, "My niece Chu Yu is well-behaved, humble, generous and elegant, and she is a rare beauty. I would love to have such a good girl." It’s a pity that no matter how rare Mrs. Xu is, it’s still a step too late.”
"Who says it's not?"
His tone was extremely regretful, and there was no trace of embarrassment at all. His thick-skinned tone convinced Mrs. Liao that she was willing to accept the defeat.
With such a sister-in-law, Mrs. Wan felt really embarrassed. She blushed and said with a smile, "Mrs. Chu, Mrs. Liao, the auspicious time is coming, we should go over."
Their two masters and Mr. Liao are still waiting at the entrance of the alley.
"Let's go, let's go." If she continued to speak, she couldn't help but spit on Mrs. Xu's face. Look how thick-skinned that is.
Mrs. Liao snorted secretly, and she and Xia Zihan helped Mrs. Chu to walk to Wu's house.
At the gate of the Wu family, because the old housekeeper of the Wu family came out to sit in person, only three carriages were cleared, and the rest all retreated from the west intersection that had been cleared.
A group of people passed by a few stationary carriages on the east side. As they were walking to the carriage, the horses that were supposed to be quiet suddenly became restless.
Things just happened.
The two horses suddenly went berserk, dragging the carriage and rushing madly into the crowd. A group of people turned pale with fear, screamed again and again, and ran away with their heads in their hands.
The youngest Liao Fangyi was so frightened that she didn't know how to hide or run.
Master Liao, who had already walked to the front, heard the movement behind him and turned around to see that scene.
The hooves of the crazy horse stepped towards Liao Fangyi’s little head...
Mr. Liao turned pale with fright. He, who had always been calm, could not stop shaking at this moment and turned pale with fright. "Fang'er, get away quickly..."
People also ran over like crazy...
But he was a civil servant, had no martial arts skills, and was more than ten meters away from Liao Fangyi. Even if he wanted to save her, he was out of reach.
Liao Fangyi woke up the moment she heard Master Liao's shout. What appeared in front of her eyes was a pair of huge horse hooves, pressing down on her head.
"Ah..." She screamed in fright, and she closed her eyes in panic, waiting for death to come.
