Chapter 138 The Sun Family's Good Days Are Coming to an End
Madam Li wept bitterly, shaking her head desperately, "No, sir, no!"
Magistrate Li didn't let them have their way at this point and directly ordered his servants to bring in the tools for blood testing to verify kinship.
To prove their innocence, the eldest son of the Li family and the second daughter of the Li family dripped their blood into the bowl one by one, without waiting for Madam Li to stop them.
Magistrate Li also dripped his own blood onto it.
After waiting for a while, the blood in the two bowls did not mix.
Then Li Fu dripped his own blood into it, and soon the blood mixed together.
Everyone was taken aback, and even the Sun family, who had originally wanted to speak up for Madam Li, didn't know how to start.
No one could accept having two children who weren't their own.
Magistrate Li stood there, stunned, his eyes vacant. His initial shock and anger gradually turned into relief.
It was as if he had found liberation at that moment.
After a while, he stopped getting angry and silently went into the house.
"master!"
"father!"
Madam Li chased after him, trying to explain, "Sir, I was indeed wrong back then, but you've raised these two children for over ten years. You can't have no feelings for them at all, can you, sir!"
Magistrate Li stopped in his tracks, ordered his servants to stop her, and then waved his hand, saying, "Get out of here with these two bastards. If I see you again, don't blame me for being impolite!"
The eldest brother of the Sun family walked over and said, "Lord Li, how could you treat my sister like this!"
Magistrate Li turned his head and coldly looked at the eldest brother of the Sun family, "Don't think that you can be arrogant just because you've curried favor with Consort Wu. I have no ties now, and I can take your entire Sun family to hell at any time!"
The eldest brother of the Sun family was startled and dared not speak again because of his gaze. He had no choice but to take his sister and leave the place.
Soon, the news that Magistrate Li had been cuckolded twice by his wife spread like wildfire throughout the streets and alleys.
When Du Wanchun and Zhou Ruiyuan arrived at the shop, they heard Zhang Qiuhe talking excitedly, "No wonder that young master Li looks like a pig. I didn't expect that he wasn't Magistrate Li's son. It seems that Magistrate Li is really pitiful."
“Yes, he used to have a childhood sweetheart, but now he has nothing left. But in the end, it’s because he was too cowardly,” Du Wanchun said slowly.
Lady Liu, who was hiding in the house, overheard their conversation and secretly wiped away her tears with a handkerchief.
Zhang Qiuhe glanced in the direction of Lady Liu and said, "Since that's the case, why doesn't Magistrate Li get back together with Lady Liu? It would be a happy ending for lovers."
Du Wanchun looked at her and said, "That depends on Lady Liu herself."
At this moment, Lady Liu came out from inside and said, "Wanchun, Lady Zhang, I'm not going to Qingzhou. I'll stay here."
“But now everyone thinks you’re dead,” Du Wanchun said slowly.
Lady Liu wiped away her tears and said, "I will change my name and surname."
Du Wanchun smiled, "Alright, that works too. It just so happens that my mother is looking for a cousin. I wonder if Madam Liu would be willing?"
Lady Liu nodded.
Zhang Qiuhe immediately understood Du Wanchun's meaning and called out to Liu Niangzi, "Cousin Zhou!"
Lady Liu quickly replied, "Yes!"
Du Wanchun's eyes were smiling.
If we keep Lady Liu by our side, we won't have to worry about Liu Xiangxiang coming looking for us.
Compared to Lady Liu, the Sun family is the real trouble now. The Sun family has lived in the capital, and their presence in Cheng'an County will only make it easier for the Zhou family's identities to be exposed.
The Sun family usually lives in the next county or in the capital. They came to Cheng'an County this time because of their younger sister.
This family is notorious for being bullies.
People from more than a dozen villages in the neighboring county have suffered a lot from their bullying.
Take their rouge for example. One type of rouge required the injection of women's blood. So they kept a group of young women, ostensibly to make rouge for the Sun family, but in reality, they were collecting blood every day until they ran out of blood.
This rouge mixed with blood was said to have the effect of preserving youth, and it was the rouge that Consort Wu used most often.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have allowed the Sun family to remain alive.
However, the Sun family's good days are coming to an end.
