Chapter 6 Where Did the Trash Come From?
Seeing her like this, Zheng Qianyi became even more smug. "Look at you, your face turns so red after just a few words. You can't be like this when you come to my house."
Upon hearing this, even the old woman standing in front of him couldn't stand it anymore and spat at him, saying, "Where did this trash come from?"
Zhou Kezhen turned to look at Zhou Hanzhang, her face full of grievance, "Brother, I didn't."
Seeing her like this, Zhou Hanzhang couldn't help but pat her head again. "Don't worry, I know you don't have it."
Seeing their reaction, Zheng Qianyi turned to Zhou Hanzhang and said, "Brother-in-law, although I am poor, my sister and I are in love. You can't look down on me and do this to break us up."
"Pah! Who said we're in love? Every time I meet you, you're with your maid. I've never seen you alone!" Zhou Kezhen couldn't help but blurt out some vulgarities.
Zhou Hanzhang looked at the person in front of him with a half-smile. "Look, my sister doesn't admit to having feelings for you, so how can you talk about being honest with each other or having physical intimacy? Do you know what you'll face for slandering a woman's reputation like this?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Qianyi's expression changed at first, but then he thought of something and gritted his teeth, "What's wrong with a girl being shy and not daring to admit it? After you marry me, I'll train you properly and you won't be afraid to admit such a small thing."
After saying that, he pulled out a pair of underpants from his bosom, the same pair he had just shown to everyone.
He turned to the side with the writing on it, unfolded it, and was about to hand it to Zhou Hanzhang so that he could read it carefully.
Zhou Hanzhang gave a wink to the old woman beside him, who quickly stepped forward to stop him, saying, "What kind of nonsense do you dare to offer to our young prince? Are you out of your mind?!"
Zheng Qianyi did not continue to hand over the underpants. Instead, he held up the side with writing on it and showed it with a confident look on his face. "Everyone, take a look. Isn't there a character 'Zhen' embroidered on it? This is what Zhenzhen left after we finished that day. There are still a few drops of blood on it. It can't be faked."
Zhou Hanzhang looked at the filthy underpants in front of him and said, "Who knows where you found these underpants? We Zhou family members would never embroider words on our underwear, let alone a handkerchief."
Zhou Kezhen looked at her brother as he said these words, and thinking about the underpants embroidered with the character "Zhen" that Zheng Qianyi was holding, she was certain that it was indeed hers.
At this moment, it is impossible to acknowledge it.
"That's right! None of my undergarments have any embroidery, not even a single flower. Who knows where you found this dirty pair of pants and embroidered my name on it before blaming me for this!" Zhou Kezhen said angrily, echoing her brother's words.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Qianyi's expression changed drastically. "Impossible, this is clearly..."
"What is 'Mingming'?" Zhou Hanzhang pressed, not giving him a chance to think.
Zheng Qianyi gritted his teeth, "This was clearly left by Miss Zhou after we finished that day!!"
He still refuses to admit that he slandered people.
"Are you so sure?" Zhou Hanzhang asked.
“Of course. Zhenzhen and I have long since expressed our feelings for each other. Could it be that you now despise my poverty and have changed your minds about the marriage?” he insisted.
Zhou Hanzhang stopped talking to him and looked at the growing crowd outside the door. "Our Zhou family would never do such a thing as premarital debauchery. My sister didn't even have a suitor yet, and this has happened. It's really a misunderstanding."
The crowd below whispered among themselves, some believing and some not.
Zhou Hanzhang continued, "Since this person insists that my sister had an affair with him, although I am unwilling, I cannot let such filth be thrown at my family."
My sister saw that you were poor but still ambitious, so she kept helping you out so that your talents could be developed. But instead, you've set your sights on her and slandered her reputation like this.
Hearing this, everyone was puzzled as to what Zhou Hanzhang meant, while Zheng Qianyi's eyes darted around rapidly, seemingly lost in thought.
"Someone, go and fetch a few doctors who are skilled in gynecology."
As soon as Zhou Hanzhang finished speaking, Zheng Qianyi's expression changed drastically. "Brother-in-law! It's fine if you don't agree to me being with Zhenzhen, but why do you have to humiliate her like this?"
Seeing that Zhou Hanzhang remained unmoved, she looked at Zhou Kezhen with a pained expression, "Zhenzhen, are you really going to let your brother humiliate you like this?!"
"If I let you throw this mud at me without proving myself, that would be humiliating!" Zhou Kezhen bared her teeth like a little tiger, wanting to bite him.
Just as the old woman was about to leave, Zheng Qianyi grabbed her hand. "Zhenzhen is my wife, and she may be carrying my child. I cannot allow you to insult Zhenzhen like this!!"
Seeing him like this, Zhou Hanzhang found it unbelievable and looked at him as if he were a fool.
Zhou Hanzhang shook his head and looked at Zhou Kezhen, "What kind of people do you know? Not only are they bad, but they also act like idiots."
Zhou Kezhen didn't know what to say at this moment; her face showed resentment and shame.
No matter how much Zheng Qianyi objected, he couldn't stop those old women from going out to call for help.
Before long, the old woman returned with several doctors, and one of the old women also led back a white-haired nanny.
Zhou Hanzhang looked at the old woman and greeted her, saying, "Our Zhou family has made a fool of ourselves, thank you for your help, Granny Zhou."
Looking at Zheng Qianyi in front of her, Granny Zhou stepped forward and slapped him without saying a word.
"You foul-mouthed bastard! Even if the Zhou family has been reduced to commoners, they were still valued by the emperor. Not to mention there's a young prince in the family. Who do you think you are, coming here to slander the Zhou family's reputation with nothing but empty words?!"
Everyone was so frightened by Granny Zhou's move that they fell silent, only then realizing that Granny Zhou was a very important person.
When she was young, Granny Zhou served the Empress Dowager. Later, she risked her life to save the late emperor during an assassination attempt and was given the surname Zhou.
After Zhou's father was born, she was assigned to be his wet nurse, and she never left him even after he was demoted.
Later, seeing that she was getting old, Zhou's father bought her a house near the Zhou residence and hired some servants for her to live out her old age. Although he himself was unreliable and did not take care of things, he would still visit this Granny Zhou from time to time.
After slapping Zheng Qianyi, Granny Zhou turned to Zhou Hanzhang and said gently, "Young Prince, I will take these doctors and the Second Miss down to take a look."
Soon after, Granny Zhou returned to the scene with the group of doctors. "I have just examined the place with the doctors, and the second young lady of the Zhou family still has her virginity mark."
These words immediately stirred up a wave of discussion.
The surrounding people then realized that they had been used as tools by Zheng Qianyi, and they couldn't help but feel ashamed.
Zheng Qianyi stubbornly insisted, "I did indeed fall in love with the second young lady of the Zhou family and we had physical intimacy. Even if she... she still has her virginity mark, she is still mine!!"
Granny Zhou couldn't stand people like that, so she stepped forward and slapped her twice more.
"What are you? Our second young lady could have any talented young man she wanted, why would she choose a pile of cow dung like you?!"
Seeing that Granny Zhou was so old yet so vigorous, Zhou Hanzhang quickly stepped forward to support her, fearing that something bad might happen to her.
"Granny, don't be angry. You should take Kezhen home first. Mother and Father haven't seen you in a long time either, so please stay for dinner today."
