Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

Chapter 470: Prospective Son-in-law

If the situation was not bad, Master Zhao would never have sold the Zhuangzi farm.

Lian Fang Zhou thought about it for a while and then nodded.
“Alright, I don’t need to start over, I’ll save some trouble! It’s just that the rules of the Lian family are different than those of the Zhao family.
I’ll let Steward Qin explain them to you one by one and you can understand clearly! You should just do what you should do.
If you break my rules, I will be ruthless!”

The most important thing was that, after she bought the village, they must not have any ties with the Zhao family.
After hearing what Liu Jia said and having someone investigate, it was clear that there would be more trouble in the Zhao family in the future.
Once this kind of thing became involved, there would be endless trouble.

Look at Zhao Ru Jun and her maids, they were so proud their eyes were on top of their heads.
Lian Fang Zhou had a very bad impression of the Zhao family and she didn’t want her family to have anything to do with them.

A stone fell in the hearts of the two families and they quickly agreed, kowtowing to Lian Fang Zhou to thank her.

One villager hesitated for a moment and then brought his daughter to approach Lian Fang Zhou.
Smiling, he asked: “Miss, the prospective son-in-law of this old slave is also in the Zhao family.
Begging Miss to be kind and buy him too! This slave’s family thanks the Miss for her great kindness!”

One could not blame him for being abrupt, how could he not feel sorry for his daughter? The girl in question looked very nervous.
Hearing her father’s question, she looked at her mother and then at Lian Fang Zhou, pleadingly.

Lian Fang Zhou glance at Steward Zhao.

Steward Zhao hurriedly smiled and said: “I don’t know about this but it’s not unexpected.
If Miss is willing, this old slave will tell the master when he goes back.
It’s not a big deal! Fulfilling a marriage is also doing a good deed! What a good thing!”

Lian Fang Zhou nodded and asked the man: “Tell me what your prospective son-in-law is called and Steward Zhao will make arrangements when he goes back.”

“Thank you, Miss! Thank you, Steward Zhao!” The old man cried.
“This slave’s prospective son-in-law is called Zhao San!”

“Who?” Lian Fang Zhou asked, her eyes wide.
Lian Ze and the others were also startled.

Steward Zhao was stunned and a wry smile emerged from his mouth: Ah, not good, why was it him?

The old man was taken aback by their reactions and, although he did not know what was wrong, he had a bad premonition.

He subconsciously shrank his neck, and repeated meekly: “The son-in-law is called Zhao San…”

Lian Fang Zhou smiled and asked Steward Zhao: “There should only be one Zhao San in your household, right?”

Steward Zhao nodded reluctantly: “Naturally this is the case, how could there be a duplicate name?”

Lian Fang Zhou sighed softly and said to the old man: “If I guess correctly, after Master Zhao mentioned selling the farm, did Zhao San approach your daughter for marriage? Did he bring it up on his own initiative?”

“How did you know, Miss?” The old man’s face was full of surprise.

She hooked her lips and sneered: Zhao San was very calculating and courageous!

Zhao San must know that she asked Liu Jia to help her find a suitable farm village and the Zhao family’s village was so good that she would likely want it.
He was good at calculating but he shouldn’t think of others as fools!

How could she accept a person she had personally driven out the door? Did he think she was stupid?

Don’t talk about growing as a person and regretting her mistakes, she wasn’t that confused! She wasn’t that stupid!

“Steward Qin, tell them” Lian Fang Zhou said lightly.

“Yes!” Steward Qin bowed slightly.
Turning to the family, he said: “Do you know what kind of person Zhao San is? When he was a slave of our Lian family, he was rude and undisciplined.
When he was sold out, he was brought back by the eldest lady of the Zhao family.
You may know what kind of things happened in the beginning of this year! So you should understand, it is impossible for our Miss to allow Zhao San back into the Lian family.”

Lian Fang Zhou nodded: “That person is very insidious and cunning.
He must have guessed that I would buy this village and rushed to get engaged with you daughter.
Think about it yourself! It is impossible for me to want him but if your family can tolerate him, then stay in the Zhao family! I won’t force it.”

The couple was dumbfounded.

It could be seen that they were honest people.
In their eyes, slaves who were sold off because they could not obey the rules were definitely not good people!

But the daughter’s face was pale.
She walked forward to dropped both knees, kowtowing to Lian Fang Zhou.
She pleaded: “Miss Lian, who is not confused and makes mistakes? He already knows he is wrong! He already knows he was wrong! Please, Miss! Give him another chance! Please, Miss! Your great kindness, we will never be able to repay in this lifetime! Please, Miss!”

The old man’s face immediately became ugly: “Second Girl! You, you, you actually knew about this?”

The second girl ignored her father and kept kowtowing to Lian Fang Zhou: “Miss Lian, Miss Lian! Please! Give us another chance! Please! Don’t remember villains, give us another chance!”

Lian Fang Zhou hooked her lips and smiled meaningfully.

Listen to what she said.
Not ‘he’ but ‘us’!

She couldn’t figure it out, how could someone as sleezy as Zhao San actually successfully sway a girl, and even make it seem like he was the kind of man to die for!

Sure enough, this little girl had never experienced the world.

Lian Fang Zhou turned a blind eye to the girl’s pleading, neither refusing or agreeing.
But the girl did not give up, kowtowing harder and harder and becoming more and more pitiful.

“Miss Lian!” Watching her daughter, the woman finally couldn’t bear it and cried out: “Please—”

“Shut up!” The old man interrupted her with a low voice and a stern look.
He reprimanded: “What trouble are you inviting? Hurry up and bring that girl back, otherwise I don’t know what we’ll do!”

Lian Fang Zhou did not speak but secretly she was relieved, this man was not confused!

If the entire family followed the daughter to plead for Zhao San, even if they kowtowed until they bled, Lian Fang Zhou would not keep them.

That kind of idiotic family, what could she keep them for?

But it was only a half sigh of relief.
After all, it was still unsure if this man was the master of the house an whether his words counted! If he understood but couldn’t control his family, Lian Fang Zhou didn’t plan on keeping him.

The woman’s face turned pale after being reprimanded by her husband.
Her lips moved but she didn’t dare to object.
Getting up, she pulled her daughter and forcibly dragged her back as she whispered and persuaded: “Good child, don’t do this! Don’t do this!”
