Several people covered their ears in unison.

Tsk, she looked like a noble lady just now, why is she shouting so loudly now? I guess people from all directions can hear her!

Liu immediately regretted her scream, but it was too late to cover her mouth.

She glared at Zhou Xiaonan angrily, pointing at her with a shaking finger, wanting to curse but unable to. She subconsciously looked around and wanted to throw something, but when she turned around she realized that she was outdoors.

Zhou Xiaonan took the wet towel handed over by Zhang Da Niu and wiped his hands while saying:

"Okay, try walking a few steps."

Zhou Xiaoxi immediately gave a thumbs up - so domineering!

Zhou Xiaonan winked at her sister playfully.

Liu's body was a little stiff, and she didn't know whether to lose her temper first or try to walk.

Zou Chunya said nothing, holding her mother's arm and walked forward. Before Liu's exclamation could be heard, she found that her ankle, which had been in unbearable pain just now, had completely lost all feeling!

She certainly couldn't say the words of thanks, so she could only raise her chin proudly, glance at Zhou Xiaonan and say:

"Humph! This is the first time I've seen such a crude method of treatment! Chun Ya, let's go!"

After Liu finished speaking, she immediately turned around and left. Zou Chunya behind her had no choice but to bow and apologize to the few people, then quickened her pace to catch up with her mother.

Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Zhou Xiaonan couldn't help but say:

"Sister, this Mrs. Zou is not as sensible as her daughter. It's really puzzling!"

"It's normal. Once people have too many desires, they will become unreasonable. Fortunately, her daughter was not led astray. It seems that Magistrate Zou is a man of clear mind."

It is not a glorious thing to talk about others behind their backs, so the two of them only mentioned it once and then stopped.

Zhang Daniu said to Zhou Xiaonan with eyes full of admiration:

"Sister Xiaonan, your medical skills are so advanced? I really admire you!"

"Sister Big Girl, you think too highly of me. The county magistrate's wife just sprained her ankle. Any doctor can treat this minor problem the same way I can. As for me, I still have a long way to go if I want to become a qualified doctor!"

After saying that, she couldn't help but sigh softly. Alas, she couldn't be with her sister every day. She was so depressed!

Liu walked into the inn in a hurry, sat down on the stool in the hall, picked up the teacup on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

After I finished drinking it, I realized that the tea had already gone cold and my stomach started to feel a little uncomfortable.

There was no one around at this time, so she smashed the teacup to the ground in anger, and the broken porcelain pieces and leftover drink residue splashed onto Zou Chunya's skirt.

The little girl had been holding back for a long time, and finally burst out:

"Mother, you have always taught me to be dignified, generous, graceful and elegant, but look at your performance today, how convincing is that?!"

"You! How can you be so rude to your mother? You are being disobedient and unfilial!"

Liu was so angry that she spoke without thinking, and all the rules of etiquette were thrown out of her mind.

"Disobedient? How dare you say that! Liu, is this how you discipline your daughter? No wonder Boyuan is getting worse and worse, it's all because of you as a mother!"

Zou Shiye had finally gotten rid of Magistrate Jia and was planning to go back to the inn to have a good rest. As soon as he entered the yard, he heard Liu's words.

absurd!

The crime of disobedience is punishable by beating with a stick, but Liu casually accused her daughter of this crime. If this gets out, her daughter will have no reputation at all!

He signaled to the servant beside him to give the servants standing in the yard a good beating, and then closed the door after entering the house.

The majestic momentum came over her in an instant, making it difficult for Liu to breathe.

They have been married for more than ten years, and this is the first time that she has been treated so coldly by her husband.

"You...I...wuwu...Who am I doing this for? You two have teamed up to bully me. I won't live any longer..."

On weekdays, Liu always regarded herself as the mistress of the house, and she often inquired about the styles of the mistresses of those aristocratic families. Not only did she study hard herself, but she also disciplined her daughter strictly.

She had never expected that Zou Shiye would catch her gaffe this time.

She felt panic, regret, and some resentment towards her daughter.

That girl was standing at the door. She must have noticed her father was back. She did it on purpose!

Zou Shiye sneered.

"Huh! You're crying and making a fuss because there's no point in talking to me, right? Liu, why didn't I realize before that you're just like those country women? You're really disappointing!"

Then he looked at his daughter.

"Chun Ya, go out for a walk with Dad. If your mother wants to cry, let her cry as much as she wants. She won't get sick from holding it in."

He flicked his sleeves, snorted coldly and walked out.

Zou Chunya stood there in a dilemma.

After all, she is her biological mother. If she leaves like this, I wonder how sad her mother will be.

While she was hesitating, Zou Shiye called her again, his voice showing that he could not refuse. She had no choice but to leave with her father.

Liu was stunned and stood there, not knowing how to react.

After leaving the inn and looking at the beautiful scenery along the way, the mood of both father and daughter improved a lot.

Zou Shiye looked at his daughter and said:

"Ya'er, you are already fourteen years old this year, and you will be a marriageable girl in one year. Tell dad what kind of man you want to marry. Your mother is unreliable, so it's better for me to pay more attention to your marriage."

Zou Chunya blushed immediately and she subconsciously looked around, fearing that someone might hear her.

Probably because it was close to noon, everyone should have gone to the cafeteria or stayed in the inn to have lunch, and only a few scattered figures could be seen in the distance.

She stamped her feet slightly, and then said in a voice as soft as a mosquito:

"Dad, isn't it inappropriate to talk about this in public? Why don't we go to the cafeteria to take a look? I heard the dishes are very unique."

As he was speaking, the person in the distance was approaching, and only then could Zou Chunya see who it was clearly.

Although the man was still wearing a mask, she remembered the color and style of his clothes, and even the patterns on them, clearly, so she would definitely not make a mistake.

Of course, the most important thing is the sound.

"County Magistrate Zou, we meet again. What a fate. How about we go to the canteen and have a simple meal together?"

Fu Qiuyang's tone was brisk and friendly. If one really wanted to please someone, there would be almost no one who would refuse to buy it.

County Magistrate Zou immediately smiled and said:

"It's Brother Fu. I have some suggestions for the tour. We can talk about it while we eat."

"Hahaha, that's exactly what I want. Please come this way, both of you."

Zou Chunya was very dissatisfied after hearing the way her father addressed Fu Qiuyang, and couldn't help complaining in her heart: He is obviously a generation younger than daddy, how can he call him little brother, it's so annoying!

While Fu Qiuyang was ordering food, Zou Chunya told her father about her dissatisfaction.

The little girl's thoughts could not be concealed at all, and County Magistrate Zou immediately realized something.

The most eye-catching thing about the boy surnamed Fu is his good looks. Besides that, he also runs Shangpin Pavilion very well. But I don't know what kind of person he is in private.

But most people in the world like colors, so he should have no shortage of female confidantes around him, right?

Thinking of this, Zou Shiye's face couldn't help but turn a little colder, and he showed a little more coldness and scrutiny in his casual conversation with Fu Qiuyang.

Fu Qiuyang was very confused. Could it be that the seven-treasure soup he ordered was not to the county magistrate's taste? He shouldn't be angry, right?
