Luo Zikun had originally been betrothed to Miss Chai, but insisted on breaking off the engagement to marry the ill-tempered Miss Chai instead.
The Pavilion Chief's second son couldn't understand what Luo Zikun was thinking.
"Do you think I'm lying to you? I know your young mistress well enough. By the way, Lord County Magistrate is there too. You'd better hurry, or risk angering him and face the consequences." The second son of the Pavilion Chief reported the news before turning to leave.
He wanted to go and see the excitement himself; it's not often the County Magistrate visits a village for official business.
The Luo family's servant was stunned and rushed back to the house, shouting, "Granny, Master, Madam, something terrible has happened!"
He kept calling out, waking everyone in the Luo family.
Mrs. Luo instructed her nanny to check the situation. "What's all the noise about at this late hour? Can't we get some sleep? Go and see what's happening!"
