Shuyu was taken aback, "These two white horses, you're giving them to me?"
Ding Yuehua nodded, "Of course, they are for you. After the County Princess Zhang was frightened yesterday, I reckon she wouldn't dare to have any thoughts about these two horses. So, after leaving your place, I went straight to Donggu County and talked to the Wu family. They immediately gave me these two white horses."
Shu Yu thought to herself, "So, you left right after dinner yesterday to buy horses in Donggu County?"
"You, you..." She couldn't believe Ding Yuehua went to such lengths just to get her two horses.
Ding Yuehua led her to the two horses and asked, "Take a look, these two white horses are pretty good, right?"
"Yes, they are."
"Then, you can lead them back home later."
Shu Yu shook her head, "No, that won't do. You've already given me two horses." Besides, one of the horses was ridden by Zhao Xi to chase after Meng Yunzheng.
As she thought about it, Shu Yu's eyes began to flicker with a hint of desire. She wanted to go to the capital.
Ding Yuehua frowned and said with some regret, "How about this, consider these two horses as compensation?"
"Compensation? Compensation for what?" Shu Yu was confused. They had dinner together just yesterday. Why would there be any need for compensation?
Ding Yuehua took a deep breath and pulled her to the side, speaking in a low voice, "Yesterday, after I returned home, I found out that the County Princess Zhang was planning to snatch these two horses, and it's related to my mother-in-law."
"Huh?"
"After the last family division, my mother-in-law suffered a huge loss. Later, she became more and more uncomfortable with it and thought it was all because of those two blueprints. She held a grudge against you. But you're the Village Lord and know that person in the capital, minister Yao. She didn't dare to offend you, but she wasn't willing to let it go, so she thought of the County Princess Zhang."
Yu Shi had met County Princess Zhang before. She had attended a gathering hosted by a friend in the capital and had the chance to meet her. Of course, it was just a brief encounter, and she hadn't thought about targeting County Princess Zhang at the beginning.
However, she felt suffocated and unhappy after the family division, and she had a falling-out with Mei Shi, which made her feel even more uncomfortable. When that friend invited her to the capital, she took the opportunity to relieve her stress.
During her visit, she complained to her friend about the issues at home and mentioned the Village lord, who made her suffer.
Her friend was not interested in hearing about her family problems, but when she mentioned Shu Yu, her friend suddenly became interested. She then talked to Yu Shi about how County Princess Zhang wanted to propose to her younger brother but was rejected by the Village lord.
This matter was not a secret, and even the matchmaker who came to propose the marriage couldn't keep it to herself. People who paid a little attention would know about it.
Upon hearing this, Yu Shi became excited.
So, not only she, but even County Princess Zhang didn't have a good impression of Shu Yu? That was a tremendous opportunity.
Compared to Yu Shi, County Princess Zhang had a much higher status. It would be effortless for her to deal with Yun Shi.
Of course, Yu Shi didn't dare to get involved in such matters directly. However, she could secretly exacerbate the conflict between the two. In the end, Shu Yu would definitely suffer.
So, she secretly passed the information about Shu Yu's intention to buy the two white horses from Donggu County Wu Family to County Princess Zhang.
