The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

When the prefect heard this, he couldn't help frowning and wanted to persuade Zhou Xiaoyuan to give up.

But as soon as his eyes turned around, he noticed her reluctant expression, and hesitantly retracted his hand again and looked at the master in front of him calmly.

He didn't expect the prefect to look at him. He thought nothing would happen to him, so he could only pretend to think and look at the ground, avoiding the other person's sight.

He didn't know how much time passed before he suddenly let out a light cough and quickly wrote a line of words on his hand.

When he handed it to the magistrate, he frowned.

"Sir, why are you so hesitant? That's the seed of our old Zhao family. If you put it in someone else's home, you will definitely feel grievances that you can't tell. Maybe in the end, it will be abandoned in an unknown place because it is a girl."

"Nonsense! As long as I'm around, Nini will never fall into this situation."

Seeing the calculation in their eyes, Zhou Xiaoyuan's face became even more gloomy, and she stopped caring about others and walked straight to the prefect.

Seeing her look like this, he frowned for a long time and was about to say something to leave her to Zhou Xiaoyuan to raise.

But as if aware of this, Zhao Xu let out a huge roar.

"She must want to sell the child to someone else. After all, this is the only way to deal with such a burden."

"You must leave after you get this money and live a good life relying on my granddaughter's blood. You have such a poisonous heart!"

When Zhou Xiaoyuan heard this, she couldn't help but sneered and walked straight to Zhao Xu.

"This is your idea, take my daughter and sell it to others as a maid or a brothel, and then use words to blackmail me and redeem her with money, right?"

"Nonsense! That's my granddaughter. How could she do this to her?

What to do? ! "

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyuan did not say anything, but turned to look at the prefect who was sitting there.

His head was buzzing due to the quarrel between the two, and he was rubbing the bridge of his nose, and it took him a while before he sighed.

"I'll allow this officer to think about it further."

"Sir, what is there to think about? Our children should have been given to us."

"For you? How to take care of children in prison?"

Hearing this, the prefect frowned even more. After all, there was really no way to take care of children in prison. If a person was given to the mother and son, the person would have to be released temporarily.

Thinking of this appearance, he hesitated slightly and finally sighed, turned around and walked back to the backyard again.

The master immediately followed and quickly disappeared after the magistrate.

The few people left behind looked at each other, looking at each other without saying a word for fear that they would be snatched away.

backyard.

The prefect looked at the master in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

"What do you think, sir?"

"It should be given to the mother and son both emotionally and rationally. After all, the child is the orphan of her eldest son."

"If this is the case, won't it make Zhou Xiaoyuan angry and beat her up?"

This sentence finally woke up the magistrate. After a long time, he nodded and turned to look forward.

"Since Zhou Xiaoyuan is willing to take it with her, give it to her over there, otherwise it will be us who really make people angry and cause trouble later."

"Master is wise."

The master bowed his hands in compliment, and then followed the other person into the court with a smile.

When everyone saw them coming back, they immediately set their eyes on the prefect, hoping to get an answer.

"Sir, that is the only child in our family. Even though she is a woman, she can still provide for us until we die."

"Yes, my brother and I

Brothers and sisters who love each other will definitely take good care of each other's orphans. "

Originally thought that this would be enough for people to agree to give the child to them, but when Zhao Linan looked at the prefect's eyes, his brows knitted together again.

Could it be that what he said was not true enough?

Or is it that Zhou Xiaoyuan also spent more money than they did, so this person must turn to one side?

But Zhao Linan and the others have been stared at, and it is absolutely impossible for them to do that.

Zhao Lin'an touched Zhao Xu without leaving a trace, who was in charge of all the family's money, and wanted to ask her to give some more, but was startled by the sound of Jingtang.

"The two of them lied endlessly about how to educate children well, and you locked them in the house regardless of whether they were suitable for raising children?"

"On the contrary, Zhou Xiaoyuan is devoted to the child and is willing to continue raising her even if she leaves. Therefore, I decided to let her take away the child."

"Sir, this is not okay! That is the only child of our old Zhao family. If we take him away, how will I explain to Wen Hao in the future?"

Mrs. Zhao Wu let out a sharper cry, causing the governor to slap the gavel again.

The sound stopped suddenly, but it could not stop Zhao Wu's reluctance, and she actually stood up with her body covered in injuries.

"My lord, I beg you, for the sake of my passing away in my sophomore year, please leave the child to us."

"Thank you sir."

Seeing that the master ignored Zhao Xu at all, Zhou Xiaoyuan saluted the prefect, then turned and left.

But Mrs. Zhao Xu was unwilling and kept making trouble in front of the prefect.

"If you continue to disturb the court, I will put you in the deepest cell."

"grown ups……"

The words stopped abruptly, but those eyes were unwilling to take them back;

Staring straight at Zhou Xiaoyuan.

Even she couldn't bear the vicious look, so she took two steps back to prevent the other party's sudden attack.

Fortunately, there were government officials nearby, so people didn't dare to move at all.

The prefect also noticed that the movement was unnatural, and looked at the other party with slightly narrowed eyes.

"Why, do you really want to see if I can do this?"

"No, civilian women don't dare. Please don't be angry, sir."

Hearing this, the prefect nodded with satisfaction, and then saw Zhao Xu's eyes rolled back and she fell towards the ground.

They didn't expect it to be like this, and several people were stunned.

Fortunately, there was a government officer nearby who noticed something was wrong and reached out to catch the person. Otherwise, he would probably be dead this time.

But also because the other party forgot to touch Zhao Xu, the pain immediately woke her up, her knees suddenly hit the ground and she let out an even more miserable wail.

Seeing the person's appearance, no matter how angry the magistrate was, he could not let him go to jail and waved his hand to send him to the hospital.

The two of them watched the yamen officer send the person away, then looked away and saluted the prefect again.

"Thank you, sir. If you hadn't wisely noticed something was wrong, I'm afraid we would have had no choice but to go back to the mother and son and continue to be tortured."

"What? Don't worry, you two. As long as I am on duty for one day, no one will hurt you again."

The prefect kept observing Zhou Xiaoyuan's expression, and it was obvious that he wanted to please her.

But this action frightened the two people who had just escaped from the wolf's mouth, especially Zhou Xiaoyuan, who almost retreated without concealment.

Fortunately, there was Mrs. Zhao Wu next to her, and she didn't want to block the way behind, who should be called Mrs. Wu.

"Sir, we were captured too suddenly. The children are still waiting for us to go back elsewhere. I don't know where we are now."

Can I go back now? "

"Now? If you two are worried, I can ask my servants to pick up the children and reunite them. After all, last night..."
