Chapter 1134: Chapter 1134: Is it... you?!

"So what if it was me?"

Lin Caisang didn’t deny Old Master Zhou’s words, her piercing gaze sweeping towards Madam Zhou.

"Madam Zhou, did you really think that after you used Liu Rumei to have the Chen Family bury me alive, I would still be courteous to your whole family?"

"You—" Madam Zhou’s face paled, trembling all over in fright.

How could Lin Caisang know about this matter? Surely, Liu Rumei had already run away, so how could she still be aware of it?

"You’re talking nonsense, I know nothing about it, don’t wrongly accuse me!"

"You claim you were framed, so let’s say you were framed." Lin Caisang didn’t argue with her.

"However, you wanted to use your marriage ties with the prefectural commander’s office to exchange my Cousin Changfeng’s examination papers for your son’s, did you not? Sadly for you, the prefectural commander is not a fool. He knows which side to stand on to make the correct choice!"

"What? Elder Mr. Zhou, you dare to call yourself a scholar belonging to a lineage of learned men, you’re a disgrace to scholars all over the world!" Lin Laogeng, hearing his granddaughter’s words, was enraged, his face turning red as he looked at Elder Mr. Zhou.

Elder Mr. Zhou couldn’t refute the accusation as he was being scolded, because he wasn’t even aware of this issue; he could only sidelong glance, glaring at his daughter-in-law.

"You—" Madam Zhou, on the other hand, was continuously stepping back in fear due to Lin Caisang’s words.

"How did you know... Did the prefectural commander tell you? No, that’s not right..."

She shook her head frantically, feeling that such a thought was far too fanciful; how could Lin Caisang, a mere girl from a peasant family, have possibly met the prefectural commander?

Even she, who was supposed to have an ironclad marriage connection with the prefectural commander’s office, had never met the prefectural commander himself; it was always Madam of the prefectural commander’s office who relayed the messages.

But...

Why did Lin Caisang know about this?

"Lin Caisang, how did you come to know of this? Just what exactly do you know?!" she screamed in inquiry.

Could it really be that Lin Caisang had such capabilities? To even know of such a confidential matter?

Hearing her words, Lin Caisang’s lips slightly curled up in a wicked smile as she cast her gaze over the Zhou family members.

"Madam Zhou, haven’t you always wanted to know why Madam of the prefectural commander’s office seemed so agreeable in front of you at first, but then reneged as soon as she turned around? And even afterward, why her attitude towards you plummeted so drastically?

Do you think all these happened without reason? Madam Zhou, you’re far too naive!"

"You... it was you?!" Madam Zhou finally figured it out.

She had been wondering why, ever since that visit to the prefectural commander’s house where she met Madam of the prefectural commander’s office, seeking to deal with Lin Changfeng and, only as a last resort, exchange her son’s examination papers with Lin Changfeng’s, the attitude of the prefectural commander’s office towards her became so unfavorable.

It turns out, all of it was Lin Caisang’s doing!

"Lin Caisang, you vile woman, why did you do this? What grudge does the Zhou family have with you that you target us so?" she questioned Lin Caisang.

Lin Caisang: "..."

The Lin Family members: "!!!"

How could this woman say such a thing?

What grudge does the Zhou family have with them?

"This family of immoral scoundrels, Three, where’s the broom? Bring it here, and sweep these shameless creatures out of here!" Lu Qiubo shouted to Lin Baiyi.

"And you have the nerve to ask such a question, I would like to ask, what grudge does the Lin Family have with you, for you to treat the Lin Family like this? Elder Mr. Zhou, we are not finished with this matter!"
