Lu Sanzhu had been in the water for quite a while. The weather was getting colder, and he almost couldn't help but sneeze but managed to hold it in.
He listened carefully to the conversation happening in the pavilion. However, his expression showed that he was displeased.
"What's wrong with this new County Magistrate's wife? Does she need to meddle in Ah Yu's love life with Young Master Meng?" Lu Sanzhu thought to himself.
Of course, he admitted that Tang Wenqian was still very good. However, his wife and Tang Wenqian's mother were not on good terms, so how could they become in-laws? What if Tang Wenqian's mother became Ah Yu's mother-in-law and caused discord, leading Ah Yu to distance herself from their family's third branch?
No, absolutely not!
Lu Sanzhu began to think about talking to Shu Yu as soon as possible to make her firm in her decision to be with Young Master Meng.
However, since the people in the pavilion hadn't left yet, he couldn't leave either. Making any noise might get him in trouble and drag Shu Yu into it.
Unaware that someone was in the water behind them, Xiao Shi and her party were still immersed in their annoyance with Shuyu's refusal. After a while, Xiao Shi exhaled and frowned, saying, "I'll wait another half month to see if there really is such a person, and how this conversation will end."
The maidservant hesitated for a moment before whispering, "But, Miss, what if it's just a temporary excuse? What if she comes to Lord Marquis and complains after rejecting you here?"
"She can complain all she wants. I'm just kindly making a match for her. I have nothing to fear," Xiao Shi said, her grip on her handkerchief tightening, her teeth biting her lower lip to the point of almost bleeding.
Yes, her husband had always been good to her, and it was true that he had helped Lu Shuyu multiple times. However, Lu Shuyu was just a girl from a remote village, and Xiang Weinan was the heir of the Marquis House in the capital city. He didn't need to concern himself with women; there were many noble ladies in the capital vying for his attention.
Xiao Shi was not afraid of her husband having concubines or second wives; she didn't expect him to have only her as a woman by his side. But if he fell for Lu Shuyu, she really had no hope.
If he didn't have any feelings for her, it was fine if he took concubines or kept her as a second wife. However, if he fell for her, she would have no hope.
Gu Mama seeing Xiao Shi's sorrowful expression, couldn't help but glare at the maidservant. "What's the point of mentioning these things? It will only add to the Miss's worries."
The maidservant looked somewhat aggrieved but quickly apologized. Then, she whispered, "Miss, there's a way to solve this once and for all, if you're willing."
Xiao Shi was taken aback and looked up.
Gu Mama was also surprised. "What method? Tell us quickly."
