Chapter 594

"Cousin, of course Ayao is telling the truth. Cousin, you are the most beautiful in Peicheng before Mrs. Han came."

"What do you mean by this? Mrs. Han, which Mrs. Han?" The smile on Liu Xinru's face dropped and she looked at Zhou Yao with sharp eyes, obviously unhappy.

Seeing that Liu Xinru had taken the bait, Zhou Yao was overjoyed: "Mrs. Han is the wife of General Han, whom General Han's cousin met that day, the one who came to see the city lord with General Liu."

"It's that ice face, his wife." Zhou Yao knew it as soon as she mentioned Liu Xinru.

In terms of appearance, Han Yu is pretty good. When she and Liu Xiu entered the city that day, the first thing Liu Xinru noticed was Han Yu. However, Han Yu always had a cold face and was neither cold nor warm to her. He was really not a man. Liu Xiu's demeanor, coupled with Liu Xiu's gentleness and elegant speaking, Liu Xinru focused on Liu Xiu. After getting in touch with him, she felt more and more that this man was good.

"Cousin, you haven't seen how arrogant that woman is, and she doesn't take our City Lord's Mansion seriously at all. It doesn't matter if she insults me, but she must not despise our City Lord's Mansion. If she doesn't teach her a lesson, I'm afraid I will bully you cousin from now on!"

"Really?" Liu Xinru looked at Zhou Yao with suspicion.

"Cousin, Ayao knows that you are kind-hearted, but you must not be soft-hearted towards people like Su Wenyue, otherwise you will suffer!" Zhou Yao nodded quickly and said affirmatively

"It's just that I really can't think of any conflict between me and her. Just because she is prettier than me, I have to go to her to cause trouble. This reason is too unreasonable." Liu Xinru said calmly. , seeing Zhou Yao a little anxious, a flash of interest flashed nervously.

"Of course my cousin is not looking for trouble with Su Wenyue because of this, but to defend the dignity of our City Lord's Mansion and let people know that our City Lord's Mansion cannot be offended."

"That's a good reason, but you made the wrong idea. You want to sow discord between me and Mrs. Han, and let me deal with Mrs. Han. It's a good idea, but unfortunately I'm not a fool." Liu Xinru said, taking a step forward. , lifted Zhou Yao's chin with his hand, with a cold look in his eyes.

"Zhou Yao, listen to me. This is the last time I will tolerate you. If you dare to use your brains on me again in the future, I will let you know the price!" Although Liu Xinru was arrogant and acted like a lady, But she is not stupid. Not to mention that she and Su Wenyue have no grievances. Although she was really unhappy when she heard that there were other women who were more beautiful than her, she was only a little unhappy. How could she be instigated by Zhou Yao? Just looking for trouble, even if nothing else, Han Yu is a person that Liu Xiu values ​​​​so, even for Liu Xiu's sake, he will not go to find trouble with Su Wenyue.

After Liu Xinru finished speaking, she walked away directly, leaving Zhou Yao where she was. Liu Xinru's maid took the master's signal, paused for a moment, and said to Zhou Yao: "As a human being, you must clearly understand your identity and your duties. Don't do it." Who has been acting so stupidly all day long? It’s our lady who is too generous and won’t argue with you, otherwise you think you can still stay in the city lord’s mansion.”

After Liu Xinru's maid sneered, she ran a few steps to catch up with her master, leaving Zhou Yao where she was with a gloomy and ugly look on her face.

"Miss, the eldest lady is going too far. How can she say that you are also her cousin?"

"She is the legitimate daughter of the city lord's palace. Naturally, I, the third cousin from outside, can't compare to her! So what if she is just the legitimate daughter? My uncle is getting older. Even if he dotes on her, he will eventually leave in a year. , No one can predict what will happen in the future, will she be able to live in glory for the rest of her life?"

"That's what the lady said!"

Zhou Yao watched Liu Xinru's leaving figure until she was out of sight, then she looked away and walked towards the city lord's wife.

Zhou Yao knew that her aunt didn't actually like her very much. Although her aunt and her mother were indeed sisters from the same mother, her attitude toward her, her biological niece, was almost cold, let alone affectionate, but she was still willing to let her go. She stayed in the city lord's mansion. It is precisely because of this that she has to be more careful to please her aunt. Her aunt's attitude can determine her status in the city lord's palace.

But before Zhou Yao arrived at the city lord's wife, she heard the servants talking: "General Han came to visit the city lord. I heard that General Han was a god of war. With very few troops, he defeated the many with less. The troops sent by the imperial court are truly amazing.”

"Yes, I have long wanted to see the true face of General Han. Last time General Han came, I happened to go out to do something for the master and missed it. Today I finally saw him. As expected, he is handsome and majestic, but Han The general’s face doesn’t look good, and I don’t know why…”

When Zhou Yao heard that Han Yu suddenly came to the City Lord's Mansion, she felt a little worried. When she heard what she said later, she guessed the purpose of Han Yu's sudden visit to the City Lord's Mansion, and her face turned pale. Could it be that Su Wenyue complained to General Han and told General Han what happened today, so General Han looked bad.

"Yingluo, do you think General Han came here because of our visit to the Han Mansion today?" Zhou Yao said while holding Yingluo's hand. Yingluo could clearly feel her master trembling.

"I don't know this, but Miss, if General Han came here because we went to see Mrs. Han today, shouldn't he come to Miss? Maybe General Han just has something to discuss with the city lord." Yingluo thought in her mind He was also restless, but he was just relying on instinct to comfort his master.

After hearing this, Zhou Yao seemed to see hope: "It must be like this. People like General Han care about family and country affairs. How could he go to the City Lord's Mansion for such a small matter in the backyard? You have to know that they are now here to seek refuge. It is definitely not a wise move to offend the City Lord's Mansion. Besides, how much weight can a merchant's daughter have in General Han's heart? General Han must have come to discuss things with his uncle."

Zhou Yao said this as if she was talking to herself. Only in this way can she not be so panicked.

Han Yu said goodbye to his wife at home and rode directly to the City Lord's Mansion to ask to see Liu Wenyong.

"Hey, what is Han Yu doing here at this time? Is there anything going on outside?" Liu Wenyong was a little surprised by Han Yu's sudden arrival, so he asked the people below.

"Reporting to the city lord, nothing happened outside, and General Han came here, saying that he had something private to talk to the city lord about."

"Private matter? That's even more strange, what private matter could Han Yu have with me?" Liu Wenyong was a little confused, but since Han Yu came to his house, he naturally couldn't treat him badly, and he personally went to the door of the living room to greet him. He admired Han Yu, this capable and talented young man very much.
