Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 1721 The Country Girl Looked Down Upon 42
Although Zhou Sanniang left in a sorry state, she hated Linlang even more because she had made things even more difficult for her, and she wanted to get back at her.

The fact that her second aunt had planted someone to sow discord would also exacerbate her thoughts.

So Zhou San Niang will definitely continue to court disaster.

Of course, she still has the most important thing to do now, which is to find a marriage that is no worse than Linlang's.

After things didn't work out with Li Yu, she naturally had to find another man to marry.

But no matter what, the person she marries must be no less than Zhou Linlang.

Once she's settled things with her boyfriend, she can continue to find ways to cause trouble for Linlang. After all, her nanny is very clever and will definitely be able to come up with a way to help her.

Linlang couldn't be happier that she continued to court disaster, because she was already planning to deal with this Zhou San Niang.

As mentioned before, she wanted to see if Zhou Sanniang was a bad person or if someone had caught her doing something wrong, which forced her to follow the other party's arrangements and seduce Li Yu. Now it seems that it was Zhou Sanniang who was a bad person, not someone who had caught her doing something wrong. She simply wanted to seduce her brother-in-law.

Since she is such a person, Linlang naturally wouldn't let her get away with it and would have to deal with her.

In the original world, the original owner was quite angry and saddened to find out that her husband and sister had gotten together. However, she was good-natured and did not cause trouble for Zhou San Niang.

The original owner of this body had a good temper, that was her own business, but Linlang would not tolerate Zhou Sanniang's evil deeds.

Since she had the audacity to seduce her own husband, she should have the audacity to bear the consequences of that seduction.

The reason I hadn't dealt with Zhou Sanniang before was to let her know that I knew about all the bad things she had done, and that if she retaliated against her later, she would deserve it and I wouldn't blame her for doing it.

Actually, she could have told her grandfather and the others, and they would have dealt with Zhou Sanniang. But Zhou Sanniang was still their own daughter, so even if they did deal with her, they would only scold her and confine her for a while. In the end, they would still marry her off. If Zhou Sanniang was lucky enough to marry a good husband, she could continue to live a happy life. How could that be considered dealing with her?

Linlang didn't say anything because she felt that if she told Old Master Zhou and the others, they wouldn't be able to deal with Zhou Sanniang. It wasn't that she wanted to let Zhou Sanniang go.

Furthermore, the method to deal with Zhou Sanniang must not damage the Zhou family's reputation. For example, making her sleep with someone and then being caught in the act would be a good way of retaliating, since Zhou Sanniang herself did just that. She was merely exposing her behavior, which wouldn't be considered ruthless. If it were someone else's daughter who seduced her husband, she might use this method to fight back. But with Zhou Sanniang, this Zhou family girl, this method is obviously not good because it would damage the Zhou family's reputation, which would not be good for her. Therefore, she had to think of another way.

When Zhou San Niang returned home, the old woman who had been bribed by the second aunt had overheard what Linlang and Zhou San Niang had said. Seeing that Zhou San Niang was clearly angry and her face was pale, she deliberately comforted her, saying, "Miss, don't be angry. Your sister can't stand to see you living a good life, so we should strive harder and find someone with better conditions."

Zhou Sanniang said, "I think so too, but none of the suitors who came to propose marriage are better than her husband. I don't know what kind of luck she had, that the suitors who proposed to her were all so good."

Hearing Zhou San Niang's complaints, the old woman thought to herself, "People in the capital are all shrewd and know how to inquire. They naturally know that Zhou Linlang of the Zhou family is capable. Plus, now that she's the daughter of a Duke, it's normal for well-off men to come and propose marriage. You have no reputation at home; people will still think of you as that ignorant country girl. Who would want to marry a country girl?"

However, the old woman naturally couldn't say these words aloud, lest the girl be unhappy if she heard them.

Although in this old woman's eyes, Zhou San Niang was really no different from an ordinary village girl. Although she had been in the capital for several years, she was still stupid and foolish, completely different from her clever older sister. However, she could not say such contemptuous words to Zhou San Niang in front of her, lest she displease her. So she could only go along with Zhou San Niang's wishes and say, "With your conditions, even if you can't marry well, you can still be a concubine. There are plenty of men for you to choose from, and you can find a good one."

Indeed, seeing that Zhou San Niang's attempt to seduce Li Yu had failed, the Second Aunt still wanted Zhou San Niang to continue seducing other women to become her concubines.

She just wanted to damage the Zhou family's reputation and let people know that there was a shameless girl in the Zhou family who liked to climb into other people's beds.

She wasn't worried about damaging the Zhou family's reputation or whether it would have any impact on her.

She is a genuine daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, unlike Zhou Sanniang who came from the countryside.

Moreover, once the Zhou family is driven away, they will no longer be part of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, and Zhou Sanniang's reputation will be even less affected.

Some might argue that since she herself was a concubine of a prince, she was also a concubine, so how could making Zhou San Niang a concubine damage the Zhou family's reputation?
How can they be the same? First, she was a concubine's daughter, while Zhou San Niang was a legitimate daughter. If she were to be so eager for him, people would definitely look down on her. Second, she didn't climb into his bed; she married him openly and legitimately.

For someone like Zhou San Niang, who is the legitimate daughter, to still try to climb into someone else's bed would definitely bring shame to the Zhou family.

The thought of Old Master Zhou and the others looking angry made Second Aunt feel a sense of schadenfreude.

Of course, the reason for doing this was to piss off Old Master Zhou, that shrewd man, so that once Old Master Zhou was gone, the Zhou family would be easier to deal with.

There was nothing they could do. They tried many ways to deal with Old Master Zhou, but none of them worked. On the contrary, the Zhou family had been living in the capital for several years and was becoming more and more organized. If this continued, they would be able to establish a firm foothold in the capital. This was unacceptable, which made them a little anxious. Naturally, they were prepared to use every method imaginable.

Speaking of which, it was really bad luck. Originally, Master Zhou was going to kill Master Zhou, but then something happened to my aunt's family, and the assassins she sent were dealt with, which interrupted Master Zhou's plan. Otherwise, if Master Zhou were gone, Old Master Zhou would definitely be so heartbroken that he would collapse and wouldn't even need her to lift a finger.

I don't know what kind of luck the Zhou family had, but they failed to cause them any trouble, which is really infuriating.

Is there really such a thing as luck in this world? Otherwise, how could the Zhou family be so lucky, always managing to escape misfortune?

—Of course they didn't know that this was the result of Linlang's secret help; otherwise, the Zhou family would have been in chaos long ago.
