All of this was due to Madam Zhou's dissatisfaction with the prospect of having a country bumpkin like Lin Caisang, plump as a pig, as her future daughter-in-law.
"Now that the Zhou family has the prefecture's governor as a marriage prospect, regardless if their girl is good or bad, it is still enough for them to counter Lin Changfeng."
After a raft of words, Liu Yushui finally reached her crucial point.
In the past, she thought Zhou Liang to be guileless; whenever she whispered her schemes against Lin Changfeng into his ear, Zhou Liang pretended not to comprehend. Now, knowing what kind of person Zhou Liang truly was, she came to understand.
Zhou Liang was not clueless, but was waiting for her all along; he let her impatiently act against Lin Changfeng, while he could stand aside, hands clean of any foul play. How beautifully planned!
