Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Enough to Support a Grand Drama Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Enough to Support a Grand Drama “Yesterday, I didn’t see Liu Yushui and Zhou Liang together, but isn’t it clear now?” Lin Caisang curled her lips.
“What do you mean?” Lin Changhong asked.
“At the Zhou family’s end, let Liu Rumei press on. She will be too busy to bother about Liu Baixiao’s affairs. As for Zhou Liang, let Liu Yushui hold him back. With such a beauty at hand, Zhou Liang won’t spare any thought for studying. He deserves to fail in the autumn imperial examination!”
Lin Changhong paused in speech, looking at his younger sister with a hint of prescribed delight.
If he revealed Zhou Liang’s location to Liu Rumei now, it would undoubtedly force the Zhou family into a corner, leaving them no choice but to marry Liu Yushui.
Their marriage would be settled in a few days. Zhou Liang would be taken back to his home, where his family members would make him concentrate on doing his reading. Or wouldn’t they?
“Would Madam Zhou agree to let Liu Yushui into the house?” he asked.
“Of course not.” Lin Caisang shook her head.
If that was the case, then wouldn’t there still be a lot of ruckus? Lin Changhong raised an eyebrow, questioning with his gaze.
“Madam Zhou is a smart woman. She won’t agree to Liu Yushui becoming her daughter-in-law, but she can delay. As long as Zhou Liang needs to concentrate on studying for the autumn imperial examination, she can buy a few months from the Liu Family.”
“What about Liu Yushui’s belly…”
“Only the people in Ya Village know about that. Liu Yushui can just hide at home, secretly give birth to the child. When the time comes, it will be a ‘buy one get one free’ deal, and she will still be the wife of a scholar. How good is that? Liu Rumei would be a fool not to go for it.”
Naturally, it all relied on Madam Zhou being able to coax Liu Rumei with her honeyed tongue. People, when they are excited, won’t use their brains for anything. Even so, there is a chance that Liu Rumei will not trust Madam Zhou’s words anyway.
But then, it would be a fifty-fifty chance. Rather than that, why not let the current situation run its course and let Liu Yushui give her all to win Zhou Liang over, while letting Liu Rumei make a big fuss at the Zhou family?
It seems a better idea. It would be beneficial for everyone involved.
“So you’re suggesting, we should just sit and watch?” Lin Changhong asked.
Let Liu Rumei and her daughter play their roles freely.
They say there’s a drama when three women get together. But with Liu Rumei and her daughter alone, they have enough to put on a big play. If others sport two feet on it, wouldn’t it possibly disrupt the balance?
“Let’s leave it at this for now. It’s not easy to find out Zhou Liang’s whereabouts anyway.”
Why does it feel like he is being led by the nose by his little sister? Could it be an illusion?
“But I already know where Zhou Liang is.” He grumbled.
Lin Caisang blinked and fixed her eyes on him.
How did her brother come to know so much without stepping out of the house? Why did it feel so unreal to her?
“How did you find out?”
She wanted to ask: How are you so capable to know Zhou Liang’s address?
“I heard from the people in our village. They said someone had seen Zhou Liang in the county town when they went shopping. He’s at his uncle’s place. I even noted down the address.”
Who in the village could be so capable?
Apart from Lin Changfeng, who else would go to the county town for no reason? Everyone goes shopping in the town because it’s cheaper and nearer and saves a lot of trouble.
Boss, do you even believe that?
