The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it

Su Yu has always had a sharp eye and can see through people's hearts at a glance. Although Mr. Zhou is a businessman, he is not a stupid person. He has already caught the strange atmosphere from Bao Er's reaction.

He frowned, took a deep breath, and asked in a serious tone: "Bao Er, tell me the truth, what is going on?"

This question was like a heavy hammer breaking through thin ice, directly piercing through the last line of defense in Bao Er's heart.

His face turned pale, his legs went limp, and with a dull "thump", he fell heavily to his knees on the bluestone floor, stirring up a cloud of fine dust.

"Master Zhou, I...I really didn't collude with anyone, I just...just..."

Bao Er spoke incoherently, beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead, reflecting his extreme panic.

"Just what? Tell me quickly!"

Mr. Zhou urged him in a stern voice, the anger he could not suppress in his words was like a volcano about to erupt. It was obvious that he was extremely angry and sad about the fact that there was a traitor in his own Jishiguan. He may have never thought that the family parasite was actually right beside him.

Bao Er's throat rolled, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, raised his head timidly, his eyes wandering, and his voice was so low that it was almost drowned in the air: "Second Young Master... He occasionally comes to me to chat and ask about what new medicinal herbs the shop has received and how much they cost. After all, he is a descendant of the Zhou family. I thought it was harmless, so I... I told him..."

He paused, his voice getting weaker: "Not long after that young lady left this morning, the second young master...he came..."

"brute!"

Grandpa Zhou could no longer hold back his anger. He roared, shaking the dust off the beams. "What are you still standing there for? Bring that rebellious son to me right now!"

At this moment, Su Yu already understood in his heart that Master Zhou was indeed completely ignorant of this incident, and it was only because of the appearance of an unfilial son in the family that today's disaster occurred.

She breathed a sigh of relief, loosened her wrist, and the whip fell quietly with a slight sound.

Although this matter had no direct connection with her, she decided to stay and witness how Grandpa Zhou severely punished his beloved eldest son. She inexplicably felt a sense of anticipation in her heart, wanting to see how this family storm would end.

Although the disaster was caused by his good-for-nothing son Zhou Yao, as the head of the family, Mr. Zhou had to shoulder the unshirkable responsibility, which was like a heavy stone, pressing him to the point of suffocation.

Despite this, he remembered the golden needle that Su Yu had given him that day.

That subtle debt of favor seemed to become a subtle buffer at the moment, quietly fading the dissatisfaction in Su Yu's heart.

Instead, I chose to be a bystander.

She had a faint smile on her lips, and her tone was gentle but full of unquestionable strength. She persuaded the crowd: "You all speak out for justice, and you are the glory of Ning County. Now Mr. Zhou needs to take care of the trivial matters at home. I hope you will forgive me and leave now."

After he finished speaking, Su Yu was calm, as if everything was under his control.

She strode into the Jishiguan, found an elegant seat, sipped her tea leisurely, and waited for the storm that had been caused by her to happen again.

Not long after, Mr. Zhou walked into the hall with a gloomy face, his eyes sweeping across the broken plaque.

My heart ached involuntarily, because the plaque was not only a symbol of the store, but also a symbol of family glory.

He pursed his lips and snorted coldly: "Little girl, you are really stubborn."

He muttered to himself, this girl is so ignorant of the world. Everyone in Ning County knows that the forces behind Jishiguan are complicated and intricate, and yet someone dares to openly provoke her.

Su Yu was completely unaware of the complexities of the outside world.

She pulled a meaningful smile at the corner of her mouth, and her tone was a little playful: "I am a good person in other aspects, but I have a good memory. Whoever makes my life difficult, I have to make him have a taste of it."

Mr. Zhou angrily waved his sleeves, snorted, and finally did not fight with Su Yu anymore.

After all, it was his own rebellious son who was in the wrong, and family disgrace should not be made public.

Su Yu looked relaxed, sipping tea leisurely, thinking in his mind how to make today's experience worthwhile.

Jishiguan is wealthy and must have a wide variety of treasures. She laughed secretly in her heart, thinking, it is your bad luck that you have offended me!

After a while, there was a flurry of footsteps outside the door, and Bao Er's hurried words broke the silence in the room: "Master Zhou Yao, come with me quickly, the master has something urgent to summon you, and he is waiting for you inside!"

"Aren't I already on my way? You just keep pushing me. My luck has finally improved, but you interrupted me again. This better be a big deal, otherwise I'll show you how I'll deal with you!"

Zhou Yao's face was full of displeasure, and his tone was filled with irritation.

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open with great force, and Zhou Yao asked loudly, "Dad, what's the matter?"

However, what met him was Su Yu's half-smiley look, which made his heart tremble suddenly, and he turned around and wanted to escape.

Su Yu was quick-eyed and quick-handed. The teacup in his hand was like an arrow shot from a bow, accurately hitting his calf.

Zhou Yao's right leg instantly became numb, his center of gravity was unstable, and his knees fell heavily to the ground with a look of horror on his face.

Su Yu approached step by step, with a hint of laziness and provocation in his voice: "Why are you in such a hurry to run?"

Zhou Yao was so frightened that he remained silent. He was confused and puzzled as to how this seemingly weak woman could stir up such a storm.

At this time, Master Zhou's voice was as cold as ice: "Bao Er, close the door."

As the heavy door slowly closed, Su Yu returned to his seat with satisfaction.

She had no intention of interfering in other people's family affairs, and even less did she want to be an accomplice of this strict father.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying scene unfolded, and Master Zhou picked up the long whip that Su Yu left on the table.

He walked towards the pale Zhou Yao step by step, and a few whip shadows fell, accompanied by his son's wailing and excuses: "Dad, I really didn't, I really don't know her!"

Even though there were no witnesses at the scene, Zhou Yao still denied it in an attempt to escape the punishment he deserved.

However, Master Zhou whipped down his whip again and shouted angrily, "You didn't do it, so why are you running?"

"me……"

Zhou Yao hesitated, his words drowned out by his father's stern gaze and the impending storm.

Zhou Yao hesitated, his eyes dodged, and he secretly blamed himself for being impulsive and irrational at that moment.

"Where's the banknote? I want to ask you where the banknote is!"

Mr. Zhou's voice was steady and carried unquestionable majesty.

Zhou Yao looked embarrassed, his throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton, and he stammered out a few words: "Nothing... nothing, all, all lost in the gambling game!"

His hands were shaking as he managed to take out two pieces of silver from his pocket. Tears welled up in his eyes and he cried, "That's all I have left..."

Upon hearing this, Master Zhou's face turned ashen in an instant, his anger spread like wildfire, and the whip in his hand began to dance wildly, making a whistling sound.
