Seeing that she wanted to leave after scolding them, Ji Xiang stepped forward and kicked the two of them down. Ah Yue’s men surrounded them. Ji Xiang rolled up his sleeves and said, “A bunch of dogs. You’re used to bullying others just because you have more people! Today, I’ll teach you dogs a lesson.”

The onlookers watched the commotion and cheered loudly. “Hero, teach them a lesson.”

The three bailiffs walked up to Li Yu and begged, “Madam, please don’t make things difficult for us! If you continue to hit them, we won’t be able to keep our jobs.”

Li Yu saw that the three bailiffs were about to cry from anxiety. She waved at Ji Xiang and said, “Ji Xiang, move aside and let them go.” She then said to the three bailiffs, “The three of you will go back to the magistrate’s office with me. If anyone finds trouble with you, tell him to look for me.”

The three of them were stunned for a moment and said in surprise, “Are you really Lord Zhou’s wife?”

“Of course.” After Li Yu finished speaking, she brought Gu Yu into the cart. Ji Xiang drove the car slowly back, and the three officials followed the car to the government office.

After getting into the car, Li Yu looked at Gu Yu, who was sitting in a corner of the car silently. She smiled and said, “Not bad, you’re quite bold. I see that you’re quite agile. Did you learn martial arts?”

Gu Yu’s eyes were red as she replied sadly, “Madam, my father is a hunter. My mother died when I was three or four years old. I like to follow my father to the mountains to hunt. My legs are more agile than those of ordinary people.” “If your father is a hunter, your family should be doing well! Why did he sell

Gu Yu’s eyes turned red. Thinking of the rules taught in the brokerage, she sniffed. “My family didn’t sell me. Last year, my father was injured when he was hunting in the mountains. He spent all the money the family had. My grandfather, grandmother, and uncle sold the only two acres of land in the family, but they still couldn’t keep my father. They even owed the town’s medicine shop more than ten taels of silver. As villagers, we were poor and couldn’t borrow money to return to the medicine shop in the town. The medicine shop couldn’t collect the money, so they sold me to the brokerage to repay the debt.”

Every family was poor. What kind of village was that? It seemed that she had to find time to go there and see if she could help them with anything.

“It’s all in the past.” Li Yu patted Gu Yu. “Where is your village? Is it far from here?”

“Leave the east city gate and walk towards Xingfu Town outside the city. It’s on Great Maple Mountain in Xingfu Town. My father used to sell prey and I came to Yunzhou with him. I used to wake up in the middle of the night and walk down the mountain with a torch until it was dark.”

The three bailiffs followed Li Yu’s cart to the front of the government office. Seeing that the bailiff guarding the door bowed respectfully and let Li Yu’s cart enter the government office, they believed that Li Yu was really the new magistrate’s wife. The three of them hurriedly went forward and kowtowed to apologize. Li Yu said indifferently, “It’s none of your business. You’re doing your duty.”

Ah Yue and Ah Ruo brought their men back to the Wang mansion. The servant who was carrying the sedan chair looked at the two of them in surprise. She was glared at by the servant girl and hurriedly lowered her head.

The two of them got out of the sedan chair and walked towards the main hall of the main courtyard. There was a rosewood eight-immortal table in the main hall, and a birthday star chart hung on the wall above. There were two rows of rosewood wooden chairs on both sides of the eight-immortal table.

In the side hall, Old Madam Wang of the Wang family was wearing a dark purple hairpin and a dark red dress. She was clad in pearls and jade and leaned against a big pillow as she sat on the couch by the window. She looked kind and peaceful. An old woman was kneeling on the bed and massaging her feet. Beside her stood an extremely beautiful woman wearing a red dress and a pure gold phoenix hairpin. She looked a little similar to Li Yu and her brother. Seeing Ah Yue enter in a sorry state, she was so frightened that her face turned pale. She pounced on her and hugged her. “Yue’er, what’s wrong? Which blind person actually dared to hurt you?”

Ah Ruo and Ah Yue put down the hands that were covering their faces and sobbed as their tears fell non-stop. When the woman saw the five-fingered palm marks on their fair faces, her heart ached so much that her lips trembled and she could not speak. Old Madam Wang could not sit still anymore. She got off the bed and asked repeatedly, “Yue girl, Ruo girl, what exactly is going on? Tell me.”

“Grandmother.” Ah Yue threw herself into Old Madam Wang’s arms and cried.

The woman said to Ah Ruo, “Niece, tell me, what happened?”

“Aunt, my cousin and I went to Zhou Ji’s bag shop to look at bags. It was my fault. I accidentally offended a woman. She said that we offended her and even said that she was the wife of the new magistrate or some first-grade madam.

She wanted us to kowtow and apologize. The magistrate is only a fourth-grade official. How could she be a first-grade madam? Ah Yue and I said that she was pretending to be one. She even asked her servant to kick us to the ground and kneel down to apologize to her. Later, the bailiffs came. We told the bailiffs that someone was pretending to be a first-grade madam, so she slapped us. Boohoo, that servant even kicked us to the ground. So many people watched. Boohoo, she even asked the family head to see her and said that she was the magistrate’s wife and was not afraid of anyone!” Ah Ruo sobbed and avoided the main point when she told them what had happened.

Ah Yue started crying again. “Grandma, I’m too ashamed to face anyone. I was beaten up by a maidservant and a servant in public. I don’t want to live anymore.”

Old Madam Wang was so angry that her face turned green. She slammed the table and said to the woman, “Madam Lin, go and get someone to call Qinghai back. I want to see what kind of ignorant shrew dares to touch the Wang family’s girl!”

“Yes.” Madam Lin walked to the door and instructed the old woman at the door to summon Wang Qinghai over. She also asked someone to bring some ointment for the two of them. Ah Ruo glanced at Madam Lin and thought of the woman in the shop. Once again, she felt that the two of them were so similar. Could it be that her aunt was related to that shrew?

When Li Yu returned home, Yangyang was crying and looking for her. When he saw Li Yu return, he turned around and ignored her. Li Yu smiled and patted his little butt. “Little Yangyang, are you angry? Are you ignoring your mother?”

Yangyang turned to look at Li Yu and pouted. “I’m angry that you went shopping without me.”

Li Yu picked him up and kissed him on the cheek. She smiled and said, “The next time, I’ll ask Yangyang before leaving?”

Yangyang thought for a moment and turned to kiss Li Yu. “Yes! Mom can’t leave quietly.”

Li Yu nodded and carried him to wash his crying face. Xiaoyu said, “Madam,

Seven Pounds slept for a while. Young Master hasn’t slept yet.”

Li Yu saw that Yangyang couldn’t keep his eyes open and whispered, “Okay, I’ll take him to sleep for a while.”

The Wang family sent someone to Wang Qinghai to tell him that the old lady had asked for him. Thinking that something had happened, Wang Qinghai hurriedly put down his work. He told Zhou Jia that he needed to apply for leave and rushed to the Wang family’s old residence.

As soon as he entered the main courtyard, he saw Madam Lin coming out. He bowed and said, “Second Aunt, is Old Madam not feeling well?”

Madam Lin shook her head and said, “Old Madam is fine! She has something to tell you!”

Wang Qinghai entered the main hall and saw Old Madam Wang sitting on the armchair. After bowing, Old Madam Wang told Wang Qinghai what Ah Ruo had said. She looked at him angrily and said, “When did our Wang family fall to such a state? Ah Yue and Ah Ruo were bullied by an ignorant shrew..”
