After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother
Chapter 94 Confrontation
"Haha... I didn't expect that City Lord Ma's mansion would be so lively. It's really a blessing for you to have such a brother-in-law and wife..."
Yuxiu didn't buy it at all. She curled her lips and said in a sarcastic tone.
"Luckily I have a lot of strength to restrain him, otherwise I would have suffered a loss here for no reason. I have no place to reason with people in an unfamiliar place..."
City Lord Ma was so embarrassed by her words that his face turned red. He didn't know what to say. But what she said was the fact. Even if he wanted to refute or cover up something, he didn't know where to start.
"Master, please let this damn girl release the person first. I have been injured by her so badly. If we delay any longer, I will bleed to death..."
The city lord's wife cried and pulled the city lord Ma's hand, begging him to take charge of her and her brother and severely punish Yuxiu and her daughter.
City Lord Ma was already embarrassed by Yuxiu's criticism, and now his wife was still so ignorant and insisted on making trouble here, which made him so angry that his face turned red.
In fact, Yuxiu and Cui were just two passers-by. Even if they saved his daughter, they could be sent away with some silver. However, City Lord Ma was a very particular person.
The life-saving grace must be repaid well. He has asked the housekeeper to prepare many precious things as a thank you. He plans to solemnly invite Yuxiu and her daughter to the house for dinner tomorrow and then present the generous gift. This matter will be almost done.
Who would have thought that it had only been a short time since the other party came to the city, but his troublesome brother-in-law had already been completely offended, and the two sides had also reached such a stalemate.
"Shut up! It's you who indulges him every day without any rules. I told him to be more restrained, but he insisted on letting his temper run wild. Now look, you've hit a wall, haven't you?"
City Lord Ma glared at his wife Zhang in annoyance. This woman was the cousin of his deceased wife. His original wife, Zhang, suddenly died of illness, leaving him with a little girl who needed care. He had no choice but to listen to the arrangement of his wife's family and marry Zhang as his concubine.
I just thought that after all, she is the child's aunt, and she is more reliable than those women out there who have no blood relationship with him.
However, although this woman has many shortcomings, she has been very good to Ma Jiaorong over the years. Even when she has her own biological children, no matter what good things she has, she always gives them to Ma Jiaorong first.
City Lord Ma was more tolerant of the Zhang family because of her good qualities, but he didn't know that over time, she would cultivate such a fearless character.
"Wuwuwu... Master... I have been serving the whole family as a servant in the mansion for many years, and now you are slapping me in the face for a woman outside. Tell me, are you attracted to her and want her to replace me as the wife of the city lord? Wuwuwu... You are a heartless man..."
Little Zhang threw herself on City Lord Ma, tearing and hitting him, crying like a pear blossom in the rain, feeling very aggrieved. If someone didn't know the inside story, they would really think that City Lord Ma had done something to let her down.
Yuxiu and Cui stood aside, watching this farce with cold faces, and couldn't help feeling extremely ironic.
As women themselves, they knew very well what Xiao Zhang was thinking. She just wanted to play the emotional card.
City Lord Ma was at a loss as Xiao Zhang was pestering him. He was about to agree to her request and wanted Yuxiu to release the people immediately. As for locking up Yuxiu and Cui, he still couldn't do it.
"You can solve your family affairs behind closed doors. Today, please give us an explanation, Lord City Lord. How should we deal with this person who dared to do such a bold thing on the street?"
Seeing this scene, Yuxiu was very dissatisfied. No wonder the Zhang brothers and sisters dared to act like this. It turned out that this man, as the lord of a city, was so confused. He ignored everything just because a woman cried a few times in his ear.
"Please rest assured, young lady. This city lord will definitely punish severely for this matter. Please let the person go first."
City Lord Ma coughed lightly and quickly asked the maids to help little Zhang to the side. He wanted to persuade Yuxiu to let the man go first. If they delayed any further, the boy would really bleed to death.
"It's easy to release her, but may I ask, sir, what is the status of this nanny in the mansion?"
Yuxiu pointed at the old woman who had just yelled at her, a smile flashing in her eyes. Although she didn't want to get involved in other people's family affairs, since they had come to her to cause trouble, she didn't mind stirring up trouble.
"She is my wife's dowry nanny, just a servant, but her words were disrespectful to the young lady. This city lord will have her taken away and beaten with a stick..."
He was just a servant, so if a beating could solve the problem, he would be happy to do it.
"I am just a little country girl, so it's okay for her to be disrespectful to me. But when she passed by just now, I could faintly smell a fragrance from her. This fragrance is quite special. I have only smelled it once in my life, when I saw the banknotes today."
Yuxiu's sense of smell is now particularly sensitive. She has already smelled that the scent on the old woman is the same as the scent of the silver note yesterday.
"Oh, is this happening?"
At first, City Lord Ma didn't understand why the girl suddenly mentioned the fragrance. He was stunned for a moment before he suddenly reacted. His eyes, which had been smiling, suddenly turned cold and stared at the old woman.
He said that when he held the stack of banknotes before, he felt something was wrong, but he couldn't remember what it was. Now after hearing what the little girl said, he remembered that the smell of the banknotes was exactly the same as that of the old woman who served Xiao Zhang.
"Come here, take this old woman Huang away and interrogate her thoroughly."
City Lord Ma had a cold expression on his face. He waved his hand to the people behind him. Immediately, several people came forward and pulled the frightened old woman away.
"Since the city lord has family matters to attend to, we will not disturb you here. I will give you the person. Goodbye!"
Seeing that he might have thought of something, Yuxiu pushed the person in her hand forward, and without caring about City Lord Ma's embarrassed expression, she took Cui away.
As for whether these people would come to stop her, Yuxiu sneered and said, "Come if you want. Who's afraid of who?"
She just doesn't want to cause trouble, but that doesn't mean she is afraid of trouble.
Fortunately, City Lord Ma just glanced at them, and then with a complicated expression on his face, he led his men into the City Lord's Mansion. Yuxiu was a little curious whether he would find out the truth of the matter, so she decided to sneak into the City Lord's Mansion to see what was going on after she returned, and by the way, deal with the Zhang siblings.
