Chapter 2025 - 2025 The commoners ‘conjectures
Hearing Gu Xin’s unreserved way of lecturing Lu Xin, the fire of gossip in everyone’s eyes intensified. They didn’t even think about why someone died in the teahouse.
Everyone in the capital knew about the Duke Zhengguo’s mansion, and they had many versions of it.
Some of the older old men and women who were around the same age as the country guarding Duke had seen with their own eyes how the country guarding Duke had made up his mind to marry a wife. At that time, Lu Zheng’s mother, Madam Zhou, was the daughter of a merchant in a small place. Therefore, the people paid a lot of attention to her. After all, Madam Zhou had married into the extremely rich and wealthy country guarding Duke’s Fu from a group like them, and she was also the most handsome man in the capital city, the country guarding Duke’s love.
In the end, only five years had passed, and Zhou had passed away. Before the seventh day of the year, the country guarding Duke had married his childhood sweetheart, the daughter of Lin.
Then, the wife’s daughter married a poor scholar, and the first son, who was also the eldest grandson of the Lu family’s Deputy, was sent to his hometown in Yuzhou to recuperate.
At that time, the gossip of the people in the capital was divided into three camps.
One was that she felt that Zhou was a commoner, and her children were as unlucky as her and could not be compared to the children of the noble daughter of Lin. These people just couldn’t bear to see others doing well. Everyone was a commoner. You could marry into a prestigious family, but I didn’t. It was only right that you didn’t live well.
The second part was that he felt that the Zhou family was from a small family and had won the country guarding Duke’s heart because of their outstanding looks. The country guarding Duke was greedy for novelty and finally found out that they had no talent and no virtue, only looks. In the end, they could not compare to their childhood sweethearts. As for the two children, they were quite pitiful, but all of this was fate. From the moment they were born, their entire lives were recorded in the book of life and death of the king of Hell. It was simply impossible to change.
A portion of three had the most people. They guessed that the country guarding Duke and the Lin family were childhood sweethearts. Perhaps this news was spread by the Lin family, not that they were engaged since they were young, so the Lu family would not come to clarify anything because of this. The reason why the Lin family wanted to pass on their childhood sweetheart relationship was because the Lin family was in love with the country guarding Duke. However, the country guarding Duke had no romantic feelings for the Lin family. On the way back to the capital from the war, he met the Zhou family. Because of the Zhou’s appearance, because of the Zhou’s talent. The people from the small town were not necessarily without talent. The Zhou family was also a rich merchant in Qing Province. Old master Zhou traveled all over the country and discovered chili, filling the dining table of the people. Old Madame Zhou was also a female doctor Who had learned from an expert. How bad could the daughter of such a couple be?
They thought that the Duke Zhenguo and Zhou were in love, and Lin couldn’t take the blow. After being locked up at home for two years, she came out again and made trouble, causing the two’s relationship to break, so Zhou was depressed. It was not easy for the two to have a good relationship and have a child. Lin must have bribed the people of the Duke’s mansion and poisoned Zhou. The Prince was lucky enough to survive, but Zhou was, after all, a beauty who had an unfortunate life.
As for why the country guarding Duke would marry Lin Shi, everyone thought that the country guarding Duke was probably touched by Lin Shi’s hot-bloodedness and wanted to find a mother for his son and daughter, so he accepted Lin Shi.
Of course, this was just the commoners ‘guess.
After that, Lu Xue and Lu Zheng’s encounter caused everyone to despise the Lin family. This was obviously to rub the original wife’s children in and support their own children!
