Chapter 1064: Chapter 1064 The Causes and Effects of County Magistrate Zhangâs Interception
Shu Yu was shocked, âThese two White Horses, youâre giving them to me?â
Ding Yuehua nodded repeatedly, âOf course they are yours. After County Magistrate Zhang was frightened yesterday, I reckon she wonât dare to plot for these two horses again. So after leaving your house, I went straight to Donggu County and spoke with the Wu Family. On the spot, the Wu Family gave me these two White Horses.â
Shu Yu, ââŠâ So you left right after dinner yesterday to buy horses in Donggu County?
âYou, youâŠâ
Ding Yuehua had already pulled her in front of the two horses, âLook, arenât these two White Horses nice?â
âYes, they are nice.â
âThen you can take them home later.â
Shu Yu shook her head, âThatâs not right, youâve already given me two horses.â One of which Zhao Xi rode to chase Meng Yunzheng.
Thinking of this, Shu Yuâs gaze at the two horses grew slightly heated, and a certain thought in her heart became stronger.
She wanted to go to the capital.
âHow about this, Iâll buy these two horses from you.â
Ding Yuehua wasnât happy, âWhy buy them? Those two horses are a gift to you, as are these.â
âNo, theyâre too precious.â
Ding Yuehua couldnât help but give her a look, pursing her lips and suddenly said with some annoyance, âThen letâs consider these two horses a peace offering, shall we?â
âA peace offering, peace for what?â Shu Yu was confused. Wasnât everything fine? We even had dinner together yesterday, why is there a need for a peace offering?
Ding Yuehua took a deep breath, pulled her aside, and whispered, âYesterday, when I went home, I learned that the reason County Magistrate Zhang intercepted these two horses was related to my mother-in-law.â
âHmm?â
âLast time, during the family division, my mother-in-law suffered a big loss. The more she thought about it, the more unsettled she became. She mulled it over, and concluded that the cause was those two blueprints. She harbored resentment towards you. But since you are the Village Chief and know that Lord Yao in the capital, she didnât dare offend you but was unwilling to give up, so she thought of County Magistrate Zhang.â
Ms. Yu had met County Magistrate Zhang once. She had a friend in the prefecture, and once she took advantage of this friendâs invitation to attend County Magistrate Zhangâs gathering.
Of course, just meeting once, she didnât know her and initially had no plans to think of County Magistrate Zhang.
She was sulking because of the family division and had fallen out with Ms. Mei, feeling blocked at home. Just then, this friend invited her to the prefecture, so she went to relax.
While there, she complained to her friend about her daughters-in-law at home, and about that burgeoning Monarch Lu Xiang causing her losses.
The friend wasnât keen on listening to her family troubles, until Ms. Yu mentioned Monarch Lu Xiang, which piqued her interest. She then told Ms. Yu about County Magistrate Zhang wanting to propose marriage for her brother but being rejected by Monarch Lu Xiang.
This matter was no secret, the matchmaker wasnât secretive, and anyone slightly paying attention to County Magistrate Zhang would know.
Upon hearing this, Ms. Yu immediately became excited.
So itâs not just her; even County Magistrate Zhang doesnât favor Monarch Lu Xiang? Thatâs a great thing.
County Magistrate Zhang has a more noble status compared to Monarch Lu Xiang, for her to cause trouble for Monarch Lu Xiang is as simple as moving a finger.
Of course, Ms. Yu didnât dare get involved in these matters.
But she could secretly aggravate the conflict between them, and in turn, Monarch Lu Xiang would certainly suffer.
Therefore, she subtly let slip the matter of Monarch Lu Xiang wanting to buy the two White Horses from Wu Family in Donggu County to County Magistrate Zhang.
