Arranged marriage, love blossoms: Marrying into a wealthy family while holding a miniature version o

Zhou Yi looked ahead, her eyes devoid of any smile: "Third Aunt, I want to know everything about Zhou Jianye and Sun Huilan."

"all."

Her voice changed; it became calm and resolute.

Li Jiahong noticed the unusual tone in her voice and knew something had happened. Her expression turned serious: "Third Aunt is telling you everything she knows."

Zhou Yi said, "Okay."

Zhou Yi and Li Jiahong talked for a long time on the phone.

Li Jiahong told Zhou Yi many things she didn't know, from the beginning of Zuo Qing and Zhou Jianye's acquaintance to their marriage, and then Zhou Jianye's extramarital affair, and even how he bullied Zuo Qing with Sun Huilan.

Zhou Yi is now of age, and after Xu Fengzhen's ordeal, Zhou Yi has become more mature, and there are some things she should know.

As Zhou Yi listened to Li Jiahong speak, she noticed that Li Jiahong's face turned very pale, as white as frost and snow, without a trace of blood.

Her fingers clenched, her lips pressed tightly together, and only after Li Jiahong finished speaking did she suppress the intense emotions churning within her, and say in a hoarse voice, "Third Aunt, I heard that the ancient town has been selected for historical and cultural development. Did you know about this?"

Li Jiahong said, "I know! The town officials have already told us about this. A big project from above has landed in our Guzhen Town. It's an investment from a large company. Our Guzhen Town is going to prosper!"

Zhou Yi gripped her phone tightly: "Zhou Jianye wants this project. He wants to go back to Guzhen Town and be included in the Zhou family genealogy. That's why he and Sun Huilan deliberately hurt Grandma before. Only when Grandma is gone will they have this opportunity."

"My God! How could this be! Those two heartless bastards! They actually killed their own mother for money, they're utterly beasts! Beasts!"

Li Jiahong was just a simple farmer, an ordinary citizen. She had no idea about the intricacies of these wealthy people's lives. If Zhou Yi hadn't spoken up at that moment, she would never have imagined it. She was truly furious!

Zhou Yi said, "For profit, for what they want, they are willing to do things that hurt Grandma. They will continue to do so. So, Third Aunt, please pay attention to the situation in town. If there is anything unusual or any news, please call me."

"I won't let them succeed."

Li Jiahong understood; she got what Zhou Yi meant. She said, "Third Aunt understands! From today onwards, Third Aunt will keep an eye on the situation in town and send people to inquire. I want to see if Zhou Jianye can still cause trouble!"

Zhou Yi felt a little warm inside and said, "Don't tell anyone about this. You observe and inquire secretly. You don't need to do anything; I'll do it."

“Alright! Third Aunt will listen to you. I will do whatever you say. They have gone this far! Although Auntie was ruthless in removing Zhou Jianye from the family genealogy, he was still a scoundrel! Now he is harming his own mother like this. It's a good thing Auntie expelled him from the Zhou family back then, otherwise they might have sold off our ancient town without us even knowing it!”

Li Jiahong was furious.

Back then, Zhou Jianye had an extramarital affair and hurt Zuo Qing together with Sun Huilan, which led to Zuo Qing's death after giving birth to Zhou Yi. As a result, her aunt and uncle severed ties with her. At the time, everyone was trying to persuade her, saying that Zhou Yi couldn't lose both her mother and father, and that the child was pitiful.

But looking at it now, it was the aunt who understood her son best. Such a person has long since lost all conscience and has no heart.

Heartless people, get out!

disappear as far as you can!

A smile appeared in Zhou Yi's eyes, and she said gently, "Third Aunt, I'll have to trouble you with this matter."

"No trouble at all! Not trouble at all!"

"Just tell your third aunt if you need anything, and she'll take care of it for you!"

Zhou Yi said, "Okay."

Her heart stirred, and she continued, "You should be the only one who knows about this. Don't tell anyone, Third Uncle. Don't let anyone find out. I'm afraid Zhou Jianye might do something if he finds out."

"He dares!"

"Could he possibly kill someone?!"

Zhou Yi's heart tightened, and the smile vanished from her eyes: "I think so."

If he could even murder his own mother, why would he be afraid to kill others?

Hearing Zhou Yi's calm words, a chill ran through Li Jiahong's heart. She said in a deep voice, "I am the only one who knows about this. I will not tell anyone, and I will not let anyone know."

Zhou Yi clenched her fists: "Call me anytime if anything happens, but don't let anyone else know."

Li Jiahong said, "Third Aunt knows, Third Aunt will be careful, you don't need to worry."

Zhou Yi was worried; a heartless person is capable of anything.

But rather than harming his third aunt, Zhou Jianye would be better off harming her directly.

Once and for all.

They are clear.

So it's safe here with Third Aunt.

Zhou Yi talked to Li Jiahong about some things, and the call lasted for more than an hour. The phone got so hot that Zhou Yi finally hung up.

She took off her phone, leaned against the railing, bent down, closed her eyes, and clenched her fingers tightly into her palms.

My mother suffered a lot; she used all her strength to give birth to her.

Zhou Jianye and Sun Huilan are not human beings; they are beasts.

What a beast!

Her fingers trembled with tension, and her lips were pressed together until they turned white; Zhou Yi tried her best to control her emotions.

After an unknown amount of time, she opened her eyes. Her eyes were moist, but without a trace of weakness; they were crystal clear.

She would no longer allow Zhou Jianye and Sun Huilan to harm those around her; from this day forward, she would do everything in her power to drag them into the abyss.

They will pay the price for what they have done.

Zhou Yi gripped her phone tightly and went back to the nursery.

As Zhou Yi stepped off the railing, the servants downstairs lowered their heads and silently left Cangyuan Garden for the small pavilion.

Sheng Mingying had already finished her afternoon nap and was now in the small pavilion choosing the style and fabric of Zhou Yi and Wenren Chen's wedding dress.

The maid and a professional top-notch tailor stood in front of Sheng Mingying, holding up patterns for her to see.

Qi Ma supported Sheng Mingying and served her at all times.

Suddenly, a servant hurried over and stopped outside the small pavilion.

When Qi Ma saw this, she said to Sheng Mingying, "Madam, I'll be leaving for a while."

Xu Fengzhen waved her hand: "Go."

Aunt Qi stepped out of the small pavilion and walked a little further away with the maid. She asked, "What is it?"

The maid bowed her head and said, "The young mistress leaned against the second-floor railing and made a phone call for a long time. She seemed to be in a bad mood."

Aunt Qi's expression changed, and she asked, "Did you hear what they were saying?"

The maid said, "I think I vaguely heard something about Third Aunt, telling her not to let anyone know, to be careful, and so on."

After thinking for a moment, Aunt Qi asked, "How does the young mistress look?"

The maid said, "The young mistress has her back to the railing, so you can't see her face, but judging from her back, she seems to be in great pain."

"pain?"

"Yes, it doesn't look very good."

Qi's mother said, "Have someone keep a close eye on things from now on, and report back immediately if anything happens."

The maid said, "Yes."

left.

Aunt Qi stood there, looking in the direction of Cangyuan.
