"What? Sending people to harm your wife? This must be a misunderstanding. Although my son is a little naughty, he is not a bad person."
Inside the county magistrate's mansion, Cong Zhicheng spoke in disbelief.
Dou Xiu sat on the chair next to him, his anger suppressed and his face gloomy. Before he could say anything, Cong Zhicheng spoke again.
"Brother Dou, please don't joke with me like that. Our two families have such a good relationship. How could Wen Chuan do such a thing? Who told you that? Someone must be trying to sow discord between you and me and disrupt the peace in Hanzhong County."
Cong Zhicheng kept talking.
Dou Xiu glanced at him.
"Who told you that? This matter happened to be caught by the Internal History Master Zhao, and the witnesses have been sent to me. Hurry and call Cong Wenchuan over to confront him."
Dou Xiu brought Congliu up and threw him in the center of the hall of the county magistrate's mansion.
When Cong Wenchuan came to the hall sleepily, he saw Congliu collapsed on the ground, his angry father and Dou Xiu who seemed calm.
At that moment, his heart skipped a beat and he turned around and tried to run back, but was captured by the people brought by Dou Xiu.
In this situation, what could Zhicheng not understand?
His heart sank immediately. If only Dou Xiu found out, it would be fine. At most, he would apologize and owe him a favor in the future.
But this was caught red-handed by the Lord Internal Secretary!
What to do? Zhicheng was worried.
Seeing his son standing next to him with his head lowered and a submissive look, he picked up the stick next to him and hit him a few times.
Dou Xiu didn't stop him and just watched quietly.
What are you planning to do, Cong Zhicheng thought angrily.
It’s hard to say whether I can still keep my official hat, you unfilial son!
"We've almost finished eating, and it's getting dark. Let's go back and rest early, Jiaying. I'll go to your house to rest tonight."
Zhao Jun yawned. She was so busy today and she even spent the whole day on the bus.
The excitement of eating the melon had passed, and she was now extremely sleepy.
"It is just what I wish for, my Lord, to rest at my house."
Several people went out and prepared to go home.
"Da Kuan, you should go home first. It's getting late. I'll take them back."
After going out, Dou Jiaying first told Wang Kuan that the place he lived in was the house she arranged for him.
Even if it's not on her way, it will still take a while to walk.
"No, it's dark now. I'll take you there."
Wang Kuan replied in a low voice, his voice deep.
"No, we're close."
Dou Jiaying was about to refuse when she saw him starting to walk towards the Dou Mansion.
She shook her head helplessly and thought, forget it, let him take it.
Dou Jiaying turned around and was about to ask Zhao Jun and Qingliu to go together.
He met Zhao Jun's strange gaze again.
"grown ups?"
"Yeah, it's okay, let's go." Zhao Jun smiled and didn't reply.
Baiyu Tower was indeed not far from the Dou Mansion, and they arrived there in a short while.
"Okay, I'm here. Now you can go back."
Dou Jiaying glared at Wang Kuan and spoke in a rather coquettish tone.
Zhao Jun and Qing Liu had already retreated to the side, and she was not such a tactless person.
"Well, are you angry? It's dark and I'm afraid it's not safe." Wang Kuan asked cautiously.
"No, I'm not angry. I'm very happy. Go back quickly and be careful on your way."
She was not angry, so Wang Kuan felt relieved, nodded, and quickly walked into the night.
When she turned around, she saw Zhao Jun's eyes again, and she probably understood what she meant.
Dou Jiaying's face turned slightly red and she held her forehead helplessly.
"You two get along well, it's good. It's always good to have some emotional foundation."
"But I have to remind you something."
Zhao Jun put away his joke and spoke seriously.
"With your situation like this, I'm afraid that later on you might end up like a young lady marrying a Phoenix man."
"Hmm?" Dou Jiaying didn't understand what this meant.
"You like him now, so of course you can treat him well, but I'm afraid he'll change his mind after seeing your wealth and power. So no matter what situation you find yourself in, don't let him trick you. You must keep your wealth firmly in your own hands."
"Of course, don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to sow discord between you. He treats you well, and you treat him well too. But you have to be on guard. You still have to be cautious. A man's feelings can't be guaranteed to last a lifetime."
This was Zhao Jun's heartfelt words. She had seen too many such examples in modern times.
Dou Jiaying stared at her intently, motionless, and her eyes became moist after a long time.
"I know this is your kindness. My mother is the only one who has ever said these words to me. I never thought that after only knowing you for half a day, you would be so concerned about me. Jiaying has no way to repay you."
Only her mother had said these words to her, not even her father. She knew that these were earnest teachings and were truly for her own good.
"What you said is true. I also consider you a friend. Isn't it normal for me to say these things?"
"Okay, don't be moved, just keep it in your heart."
"Let's go, go to bed."
Zhao Jun waved her hand. She didn't do those sensational things.
Leading Qingliu into the yard.
That night, some people slept well after a long time, while some people did not sleep all night.
Dou Xiu and Cong Zhicheng talked about something in the county magistrate's mansion, and did not return to his own mansion until midnight.
On the second day, the sky was clear and cloudless, and it was a sunny and beautiful day.
Zhao Jun and Qingliu Dou Jiaying had a leisurely breakfast.
I also spent half a day in the yard admiring the flowers planted by Dou Jiaying.
