The three were stunned. One of them nodded quickly: “Yes, yes! Of course, Master Ah Jian’s wife can’t be an ordinary village girl!”

The other two quickly followed suit, nodding.

Lian Fang Zhou was so angry and embarrassed, her face was red and white! She scolded: “Lian Ze!” How old was he, what did he mean by ‘marry a woman casually?

“It’s fine if I don’t say it!” Lian Ze shrunk his head and rushed to Ah Jian, tugging his sleeve with a smile to please him. “Brother Ah Jian, don’t be angry with me! What I said is true, no country girl is worthy of you! A matchmaker’s mouth will brag fiercely. The more she speaks, the more she lies! Don’t be fooled by them, Brother Ah Jian!”

Ah Jian glanced at Lian Fang Zhou instinctively and then smiled at Lian Ze: “I don’t blame you, I don’t have any intention of marrying a wife.”

“That’s, that’s! You can’t look at ordinary people!” Lian Ze smiling flatteringly, immediately feeling relieved.

When Lian Fang Zhou heard Ah Jian, her heart relaxed for a moment before going tense again. He said he had no intention of marrying a wife…

“Okay, Ah Ze, no more words, get back to work!” Lian Fang Zhou snapped at him, trying to ignore the sullenness that Ah Jian’s words had brought to her heart.

“Brother Ah Jian, how could you say that? You’re not young anymore, you should consider it!” A coquettish voice drifted over, creating a burst of annoyance in the hearts of Lian Fang Zhou, Ah Jian, and Lian Ze.

None of them needed to turn around to know that the fairy-like girl, Xi Que, was back again!

Lian Fang Zhou frowned in disgust. Wasn’t it clear and sunny today? Why were there so many demons and monsters coming to visit?

Ah Jian jumped into the cart and raised the whip, driving the donkey cart out of the yard.

“Brother Ah Jian? Where are you going! It’s me, Xi Que, I came to see you!” Seeing this, Xi Que hurried forward.

“Miss Xi Que,” Lian Fang Zhou smiled, pulling her to a stop with a polite and distant expression: “Is there something wrong?”

What nonsense!

Xi Que glanced at her and then at Ah Jian, who had driven away. Hurriedly, she said: “I didn’t come to speak to you!” With a flick of her hand, she tried to leave Lian Fang Zhou behind to chase Ah Jian.

Where would Lian Fang Zhou let her get her wish? She grabbed her hand, smiling questioningly: “You didn’t come to speak to me? Why did you come to my house if you didn’t need to speak to me? How amazing!”

With just two or three sentences, Ah Jian had already disappeared with the cart.

“You!” Xi Que turned her head, saying angrily: “I’m here to speak to my Brother Ah Jian!”

Lian Fang Zhou was already holding a nameless fire in her heart and Xi Que’s words were exactly what she did not want to hear. Calmly, she said with a cold expression: “Ah Jian does not have a girl like you! Don’t call Ah Jian ‘Brother Ah Jian’, we are not familiar with you!”

Xi Que raised her chin and let out a huff, not putting Lian Fang Zhou’s expression in her eyes. Instead, she said with disdain: “Brother Ah Jian didn’t say he was unfamiliar with me, don’t you speak for him! Brother Ah Jian never said that I’m not allowed to call him this, so why do you care about it?”

Lian Fang Zhou was even more furious, so furious she couldn’t speak!

This kind of lack of self-awareness was very good, so good that she could definitely be called a ‘shameless woman’. It was the first time Lian Fang Zhou had seen something like this!

Seeing that she was speechless, Xi Que was even more proud of herself. She snorted again, saying: “I’m not going to bother talking to you! When Brother Ah Jian comes back, I have something to tell him!”

Lian Fang Zhou sneered: “Since you’re rushing to flatter Ah Jian like this, just go do it, I’m too busy! Since you are not here to find me, please go out and wait at the door! Wang Er, Wang San, Wang Si, please take Miss Xi Que out!”

“Do you dare drive me away!” Xi Que screeched at Lian Fang Zhou.

“Did you not hear me? I’m busy with work! If you want to stay here, don’t say we bullied you!” Lian Fang Zhou said faintly, raising her eyebrows.

Wang Er, Wang San, and Wang Si had already put down their things and approached them. The three of them squeezed together so close, they almost formed a wall in front of Xi Que: “Miss Xi Que, please.”

Xi Que glared at the three of them with disgust. She frowned and snorted, muttering: “Where would a Miss like I be acquainted with such vulgar people like you!”

“What’s in the sack? Oh, what kind of seeds are these?” Zhao San, who had driven Xi Que again, had snuck around the back and was rubbing and patting the sacks brought down from the attic and piled up under the eaves of the porch. He shouted loudly: “Ah, I see! Aren’t these the cotton seeds? Miss Lian, were you planning on growing cotton?”

As Zhao San spoke, he smacked the sack hard and grinned up at Lian Fang Zhou, looking a little manic.

Except for Wang San, who had been brought in later, Wang Er and Wang Si were very aware of the grievances between Zhao San and their Miss. Seeing Zhao San’s rudeness, they couldn’t help but frown slightly, feeling disgusted.

Lian Fang Zhou had ruthlessly taught Zhao San a lesson and then immediately sold him. When everyone had seen this, they had felt both frightened and venomous towards her, feeling that she had been too cruel.

Seeing Zhao San’s expression now, however, they both felt that Lian Fang Zhou had been too nice to teach him such a small lesson.

“Cotton seeds?” Xi Que’s eyes lit up and before Lian Fang Zhou could stop her, she ran over and patted and squeezed the sacks. She smiled: “They really are cotton seeds! Hey, is it time for the cotton seeds to be planted?”

Lian Fang Zhou originally wanted to order the servants to stop them but suddenly changed her mind, standing there without moving.

She stared at Xi Que with an indifferent expression and reluctantly said: “Are you out of your mind? How could this be the right time?”

If Lian Fang Zhou had said this politely, Xi Que might have had doubts, but Lian Fang Zhou’s expression and tone clearly had the air of reluctance. Xi Que was convinced, and her heart jumped with excitement: “Are you going to grow them at the nursery fields first?”

Lian Fang Zhou snorted impatiently and did not answer. Speaking unpleasantly, she said: “Please go out, we still have work to do!”

She stared at them coldly, raised her eyebrows, and sneered: “So the people of the Zhao Manor are so thick-skinned? What kind of people are these? I don’t know how to teach people to be so disciplined!”

“What nonsense are you saying?” The expressions of Xi Que and Zhao San changed slightly. Muttering a few words, they left reluctantly.

Damaging the reputation of the Zhao family was not something the two of them could afford. If they embarrassed the Zhao Manor, Zhao Ru Jun would not spare them.

Walking towards the door, Xi Que couldn’t help turning her head to stare bitterly at Lian Fang Zhou, depressed.
