Chapter 35 Complaint
Hearing Zhou Shiyuan's words, Yuan Zhao's expression became a little strange.

"You said, that's a rumor?"

"Of course it is!"

"You're going to sue me!"

"Correct!"

Zhou Shiyuan said coldly.

This incident has caused such a big disturbance, and the city is full of wind and rain. Only by suing Jing Zhaoyin can the Hou Mansion be cleared. He doesn't believe that the Yuan family can still be so domineering if the incident becomes a big deal.

Seeing Zhou Shiyuan's righteous indignation, Yuan Zhao lay down on the couch and said with a smile:

"Then I will wait for Shizi's pleadings."

"you?!"

Zhou Shiyuan didn't expect that Yuan Zhao didn't look worried or scared at all. Today, Yuan Zhao was wearing a wide-sleeved flowing skirt, and his every move was filled with sunshine.

She was half lying on the reclining chair leisurely, leisurely and happy.

Zhou Shiyuan's heart choked, he turned and left.

Yuan Zhao didn't stop him either, but the smile on his face deepened.

Zhou Shiyuan went out from Yuanzhao's courtyard with a dark face. He was about to go to Zhou's father's study to discuss this matter, but was called into the house by Mrs. Zhou.

"Shiyuan, why are you in such a mess?"

Mrs. Zhou frowned and asked.

Zhou Shiyuan said what happened today with a sullen face, and then he said that he was going to sue Yuan Zhao for slandering the Marquis. He thought his grandmother would support him, but the old lady Zhou's expression changed.

"Absolutely not!"

"grandmother?"

Zhou Shiyuan looked at Mrs. Zhou in disbelief:
"This matter has spread all over the city. If we don't do something, how can our Marquis Mansion still have the dignity to go out to meet people?"

It is the most shameless thing to usurp a woman's dowry.

Even ordinary peasants dare not do this, and they will be ashamed to face others after it is spread.

This is different from Yuan Zhao hooking up with Rong Ruo, no matter what, Rong Ruo is a eunuch and powerful, even if someone hears about it, they will only think that Rong Ruo is domineering and their family is incompetent.

However, embezzling the dowry is different, it will make the entire Yongninghou Mansion feel ashamed.

The second brother and the youngest sister have not said goodbye yet. If such a bad reputation spreads, who will dare to say goodbye to them in the future?

"Grandmother knows, but this matter needs to be discussed in the long run."

Mrs. Zhou was persuading Zhou Shiyuan when a little maid ran in:

"It's not good, old lady, it's not good."

"What's the panic about?"

Mrs. Zhou said in displeasure.

She doesn't like people who make such fuss.

"Old madam, the Crown Prince's wife had someone open the door and move all her dowry to the door. She also had someone take the dowry list and check them one by one."

The little maid said.

"what?"

Mrs. Zhou stood up in surprise.

When Zhou Shiyuan heard this, he immediately snorted coldly:
"She still dares to do it."

"I'm going to see what tricks she's up to."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Shiyuan turned around and walked towards the gate.

But at this moment, Mrs. Zhou's usual benevolence had long since disappeared from her face, her brows were tightly wrinkled, her thin lips were tightly pursed, looking mean and vicious.

"Go and invite the Marquis."

Mrs. Zhou said slowly:
"Also, go and call my wife from the Buddhist hall."

After arranging all this, Mrs. Zhou slowly closed her eyes, began to fiddle with the Buddhist beads in her hand, and carefully recalled Tian Yuanzhao's demeanor these days.

Something is wrong!
very wrong!

At first, she thought that Yuan Zhao's sudden quarrel was due to jealousy and unwillingness.

However, after these few confrontations, she felt that it was not just that simple.

Every step Yuan Zhao took was slapping their Hou Fu in the face.

What is she trying to do?
Also, when did she have such a scheming mind?
