Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce
Chapter 140: The Widow with Many Troublesome People (8)
What made Liang Wei even more dissatisfied with Mu Zhou was Liang Bei's attitude.
He and Mu Zhou were not very familiar with each other. They had hardly even spoken to each other in Luze Village, but now he treated her much closer.
This shows how coquettish Mu Zhou is.
She couldn't help but say, "Brother, let's go quickly. Don't let the neighbors associate us with this kind of woman. You are going to be the top scholar, so you can't have any stains on your reputation."
Liang Bei frowned in disapproval:
"We have a friendship with Miss Mu from the same village. How can this be considered a stain?"
"Mu Zhou is a widow, and widows are prone to gossip. She has such a coquettish look and she doesn't know how to restrain herself. Brother, you are an honest scholar, so you must avoid suspicion. Moreover, she has only been in the capital for a short time, but she has already attracted so many men. Be careful that she has bad intentions and will rely on you again."
After Liang Wei finished speaking with such certainty, Liang Bei's face had already darkened.
He didn't expect that his sister would say such malicious words without any evidence.
Liang Bei looked at Liang Wei, his expression serious but with a warning:
"Wei'er, don't say such things again in the future. Anyone in the capital can find out about the young marquis's deeds. How can you blame Miss Mu? We are from the same village and are now in the capital. We should take care of each other."
Liang Wei was so shocked by his cold response that she forgot about her unreasonable behavior for a moment.
Liang Bei actually got angry at her because of Mu Zhou?
She glared at Mu Zhou fiercely. She was indeed a seductress who seduced Liang Bei away without saying a few words.
In his previous life, Liang Bei treated him coldly for Chu Caiyan and wished she would die. Now he treats her the same way for Mu Zhou.
Why do these women have such bad intentions?
The two of them left one after the other. Chu Caiyan, who was hiding in the crowd, listened to the whole process. She snorted coldly, squeezed in front of the crowd, asked the servants to drive away the irrelevant people, and then closed the door.
Mu Zhou looked at the veiled woman in front of him, stunned for a moment, and then tentatively said:
"General Chu Yan?"
"it's me."
Chu Caiyan took off her veil and revealed a hearty smile.
Mu Zhou also curled up the corners of his lips, looked at the woman in front of him in amazement, and couldn't help but say:
"When the general is dressed as a man, he is heroic and valiant; when dressed as a woman, he is beautiful as a flower. Whether he wears light or heavy makeup, he looks good in every way."
Chu Caiyan was amused by her, and after chatting with her for a few words, she couldn't help but talk about the young marquis:
"Don't worry, I will go and give him a lesson. He loves to harm women on weekdays, and now he has come to you. He has good judgment."
Seeing that she could help, Mu Zhou felt much more relieved and asked her to return all the things.
Chu Caiyan naturally agreed.

General's Mansion.
After Chu Jinyao was conferred the title of general, he moved to the general's mansion bestowed by the emperor.
He practiced in the martial arts field for an hour before putting down his spear and wiping his hands with the handkerchief handed to him by the servant.
Just then, the secret guard came forward and explained what he had found out.
"Since Miss Mu arrived in the capital..."
Although the report was brief, it was extremely detailed and covered every detail.
Chu Jinyao's expression also turned gloomy.
Since returning to the capital, he has been busy all the time without stopping.
Naturally, I never thought of that woman again.
Of course, there were also reasons why he deliberately forgot.
Just when he thought that this matter had drifted away with the wind and left no trace in his heart, he saw her yesterday.
Without any warning, he looked out the window and saw Mu Zhou standing outside the rouge shop.
Even though they hadn't seen each other for a long time, he still easily recognized the other person just by looking at his back.
He knew he shouldn't do this, but his eyes couldn't help but drift towards the window.
Until he saw her way blocked by that dandy boy.
Perhaps if it was a moment later, he would not be able to help but show up.
Later I heard Xu Yi say those words again.
If he didn't know, it would be fine. But since he knew that the widows of his soldiers might be in danger, he naturally couldn't sit idly by.
Maybe it is to comfort myself, or maybe it is to convince myself that this behavior is reasonable.
He felt that there was no need for him to continue hiding from Mu Zhou.
She had just arrived, and the capital was not like Luze Village. As her late husband's general, I should give her some help.
So he asked someone to investigate.
She heard from the secret guard that Mu Zhou's house was always "lively", with men coming all the time and people always sending her things. His expression did not change, but his big hands silently clenched the handkerchief.
Ah.
Yes, there is no need for him to meddle in other people's business.
There are many people who pay attention to her.
He frowned, threw the handkerchief to the servant beside him, and strode back to the study.
After the servant took the handkerchief, he intended to fold it and wash it, but he found that the handkerchief was broken into half.
He looked at the torn handkerchief in shock, then looked at the general who had walked away.

General's Mansion, Study.
Chu Caiyan pushed the door open and when she saw her uncle reading the Art of War, the anger on her face subsided a little.
Chu Jinyao didn't even look at her, just turned the page, his tone calm:
"What's the matter?"
Chu Caiyan couldn't help but speak.
It turned out that after she returned the things to the young marquis on behalf of Mu Zhou, the young marquis refused to accept them and insisted on giving them to Mu Zhou. He also bluntly said that Chu Caiyan was ruining her marriage.
"He actually boasted that Mu Zhou was his soulmate and that he would marry no one else. How shameless!"
Chu Jinyao was still holding the book, but if you looked closely, you would find that he had not turned the page for a long time.
Chu Caiyan then said:
"He knew that Mu Zhou was a widow, yet he still dared to tell his family that he wanted to marry her. How could the old Marquis and his wife agree? Isn't this just causing trouble for Mu Zhou?"
Today, the Marquis' wife sent someone to Mu Zhou's house to give her some silver, asking her to behave like a good wife and use the silver to live in the future. She also reminded her that as a widow, she should not always show up in public and attract criticism.
Chu Caiyan happened to be there too. After hearing this, she got so angry that she picked up a broom and chased them away.
When Chu Jinyao heard this, the knuckles of his hands, which were holding the book, turned white from the force he exerted.
Chu Caiyan drank some tea, and after moistening her throat, she was still angry:
"That's really outrageous! It was Qu Hongyu who went to harass Mu Zhou, but Madam Hou blamed Mu Zhou for showing up in public. Humph, I'm so angry."
Poor Mu Zhou, there was nothing he could do about being treated like this, and he forced a smile to comfort her: "Who made me a widow? My identity will naturally cause controversy. Well, with this money, I don't have to worry about how to make money anymore."
Chu Caiyan couldn't help but feel distressed when she thought of Mu Zhou's forced smile: "I clearly saw tears in the corners of Mu Zhou's eyes. She must have been very upset."
Chu Caiyan now truly regarded Mu Zhou as a good sister, so she naturally felt sorry for her.
She had no one to talk to, so she could only come to her uncle to vent.
*
In the evening, the doors of all the houses in the alley were closed and few people came out.
Chu Jinyao's figure suddenly appeared, and he looked at Mu Zhou's residence not far away.
Just as I was about to go up and knock on the door, a sneaky figure appeared in the alley.
His brows turned cold and he disappeared in an instant.
The man quickly walked to Mu Zhou's door and knocked quietly.
After a while, the door was opened and Mu Zhou's porcelain-white face appeared. After seeing who was coming, he said in surprise:
"General Feng?"
The person who came was Feng Chu.
