Chapter 1053: Chapter 1053: Want to Find a Better One

"But if my family only had me as a woman, and I was also taking care of two children, what could I have done if Zhou Liang decided to force his way? Compared to him, I would be no match, not to mention the Zhou family has servants."

With two children to take care of, even within Ya Village, it’s impossible to guard against everything. Who knows what kind of trouble Zhou Liang could stir up? Even if Zhou Liang were too dull to come up with anything, what about his mother?

That woman is venom to the core!

Hearing Liu Yushui’s words, Lin Caisang also took a deep breath, thinking, the Zhou family may not have the abilities of fierce predators, yet they certainly possess the heart of one!

"You can’t just randomly buy a man to bring home, how improper that would be," said Lu Qiubo.

Anyone unaware would think that the girls of Lin Family were so desperate for men that they were at the point of buying husbands from the slavemarkets.

"Granny, let me handle Liu Yushui’s matter. If it really comes down to it, we may have to do as she said and buy a man for protection. After all, the people of the Zhou family really are no different from lunatics."

Lin Caisang actually felt that Liu Yushui coming up with such a plan was quite impressive.

"This Zhou family, they are simply..."

Lu Qiubo was so angry he wanted to commit murder, but after looking at Liu Yushui, he shook his head.

"How did our family get involved with such a troublesome household, it’s such bad luck! Alright, you all discuss it. Changhong, you and girl Qing go and bring the two children over. You might as well eat here tonight instead of going back home to cook."

"Sangsang..."

Upon hearing Granny’s words, Lin Changhong was clearly displeased.

Liu Yushui had tried to harm Sangsang several times in the past, and now Granny was inviting her to stay for a meal, which was obviously a sign of acceptance.

He looked towards his sister, wanting to know her thoughts.

"Big brother, if Granny tells you to go, just go, and remember to be extra careful," Lin Caisang warned.

...

That evening, in the main hall of Ya Molian’s house, Lin Caisang was sitting at the table with Nangong Piao’er and Beidou on either side of her, and Ya Enxi and Ya Yufeng were standing beside them.

"Madam, do you mean for us to keep watch over Liu Yushui’s family?"

Hearing Lin Caisang’s words, a look of surprise was evident on Beidou’s face as he asked.

"Yes."

Lin Caisang nodded.

Madam Zhou didn’t gain any advantages with her and was likely to turn to Liu Yushui next, a common occurrence.

However, what Lin Caisang didn’t understand was that from Liu Yushui’s words, it seemed that Zhou Liang was completely unaware of Liu Yushui having two daughters.

But with how cunning Madam Zhou was, having suggested a plan to Zhou Liang, how could she have not inquired about Liu Yushui’s circumstances? This meant she was probably aware of the existence of Liu Yushui’s children?

Yet, she hadn’t told her own son about it.

Alternatively, perhaps Liu Yushui had given birth to two daughters and had kept it secret from everyone in the Zhou family all this time.

"Also, the matter concerning Zhou Liang needs to be dealt with promptly. Brother Enxi, go to the county office again and check on things. I do not want there to be any mishaps with the marriage arrangement between Zhou Liang and the county magistrate’s family."

"Madam, I have already inquired about this. It seems that Zhou Liang has failed the autumn imperial examination, and the county magistrate is contemptuous of him as a son-in-law and wants to find a better match," said Ya Enxi.

After all, it is the daughter of the county magistrate that is to be married off, and even if she has been involved in a scandal, it remains unknown to the public.

The county magistrate cares about his reputation and certainly wants to match his daughter with an equal suitor. Even if he cannot find one of that status, he still needs to find a son-in-law who is at least presentable.
