School started after the new year. After a busy winter vacation, Zhao Chuanyu finally found time to go to school.

"Huh? Where is Zhou Anna? Why didn't she come?"

After half a day of class, during lunch break, Zhao Chuanyu scanned the classroom and suddenly discovered that there seemed to be one person missing today.

She caught Yu Er and asked in a low voice, "Where is your cousin?"

Yu Er yawned and said nonchalantly, "I told you, Anna Zhou is not my cousin."

A distant relative who cannot be beaten with eight poles, should he be given the title of "sister"?

Zhao Chuanyu rolled his eyes. This is the point. Isn't the point that he should answer her question first?

After understanding his boss's expression, Yu Er hurriedly said, "She was picked up by her own mother!"

Zhao Chuanyu was stunned for a moment, and then remembered, "Oh, that's right. Zhou Anna's father is gone, but her mother is still there. But -"

Didn’t Zhou Anna’s biological mother elope with a passing wild man? Why did she suddenly appear again?

Also, is this kind of mother who abandons her daughter and goes with a wild man after her husband’s death really reliable?

She won't pick up Zhou Anna with her front foot, and sell her behind her back!

These days, it is not uncommon for people to sell their sons and daughters.

Even if she didn't sell her daughter directly, Zhou's mother could still receive a lot of betrothal gifts by "marrying" her daughter.

Zhou Anna is beautiful, young, and has studied in a new school. Men from wealthy families like this kind of female students the most.

Let Zhao Chuanyu say that Zhou's mother did not "marry" her daughter before eloping, which was a rare act of motherly kindness on her part!

However, people's hearts change.

Just because Zhou's mother didn't plot against Zhou Anna last year doesn't mean that she won't sell her daughter now.

Zhao Chuanyu did not say anything clearly about the latter words and some not-so-good guesses.

Yu Er, who is not too stupid, could think of it. He waved his hand casually, "Zhou Anna's mother said that she didn't just leave her daughter alone, but went out to make money!"

Zhao Chuanyu's eyes widened: "You must be lying."

A woman who has never even been to a mountain village has the courage to run outside and make a living?

"Who knows! Anyway, now that she has returned home in fine clothes, she looks like a rich lady. She wants to take her daughter away to enjoy her life. My mother, a cousin with no blood relationship, really has no reason to stop her!"

Yu Er still looked unconcerned.

I said this, but I secretly muttered in my heart: My mother won’t stop me!

She is the most innocent person, and she will believe whatever others say.

Mrs. Zhou didn't even see Anna Zhou's frightened look when she saw her biological mother, but was happy for her cheap niece from the bottom of her heart.

He personally helped Zhou Anna pack her luggage and reminded her earnestly: "Live a good life with your mother. If you have any difficulties in the future, come to me at any time!"

Anna Zhou:……

Her biological mother was indeed her biological mother, but the problem was that after Zhou's father passed away, her biological mother wanted to marry her to the rich man in the town.

Of course Anna Zhou was unwilling to do so and sold this vicious mother who did not regard her daughter as a human being.

Yes, Zhou’s mother did not elope with anyone, but was sold by Anna Zhou herself.

The so-called elopement was nothing more than an excuse used by Anna Zhou to evade fellow villagers and outsiders.

Zhou Anna originally thought that Zhou's mother, a woman from a far-flung family, sold her to a passerby, and that she would never see her again in her lifetime.

However, Zhou Anna never expected that Major General Yu would have such means.

In just one or two months, Zhou's mother was found and brought to Fucheng.

Zhou Anna knew the truth and knew that General Yu was deceiving Mrs. Zhou, but she was in trouble and couldn't tell her.

What could she say?

Mother Zhou is indeed the biological mother of this body.

It is only natural that a mother should take away her daughter.

Unless Zhou Anna has the face and the courage to tell all the truth.

But the problem is, she can't say it.

My biological daughter sold my biological mother. Haha, not to mention the present time when filial piety is respected, even if it is left in future generations, it will be enough to help the society to search for hot topics.

Besides, apart from selling out her own mother, which was too treacherous, Zhou Anna was also afraid of General Yu.

If he dared to shout for help to Mrs. Zhou, it wouldn't take long for her to really die.

After what happened with Zhou's mother, Zhou Anna had a deeper understanding of Major General Yu's ability and power.

Forget it, let’s follow Zhou’s mother first.

If she can sell Zhou Mu once, there will be a next time.

Compared to the more terrifying General Yu, Zhou Anna is somewhat more confident about Zhou's mother.

In this way, at the end of the year, Zhou Anna left with her mother without caring about celebrating the New Year at Yu's house.

Later, Mrs. Zhou received a letter from Anna Zhou, which said that everything was fine with their mother and daughter, and asked Mrs. Zhou not to worry.

After that, there is no more.

"Maybe I'll go back to my hometown! Who knows!"

Anyway, there is no longer Anna Zhou in the house, so Yu Er feels relieved!

As for where she had gone and what her situation was now, Yu Er didn't care at all.

Zhao Chuanyu: ...The person who I thought was very troublesome ended up "disappearing" so easily.

She always feels unreal.

Moreover, Zhao Chuanyu had a hunch that the truth of the matter was definitely not what Yu Er said.

But, it doesn’t matter!

Even though Zhou Anna was still in Fucheng, Zhao Chuanyu felt that she had nothing to do with her.

Not to mention that she is not here now, so there is no danger.

Zhao Chuanyu threw this matter aside, only deep in his heart, he still had the name "Zhou Anna".

"Oh, Chuanyu, there's going to be a war again. I heard that this time it's not with those warlords, but, but -"

Under normal circumstances, Yu Er rarely mentioned military affairs to Zhao Chuanyu.

But this time, the "war" he spoke of was no secret.

After all, it was published in the newspapers, and there was a fight with ghosts in the capital.

Their capital city is not too far from the capital, and they were also massacred by ghosts more than 20 years ago.

This time, there is a war in the north, and Fucheng will be at war with Guisha sooner or later.

Fucheng is the territory of the Yu family's army, so the Yu family will naturally not give up easily.

But the momentum of the ghost attack was so fierce that even the regular army could not resist it, let alone small warlords like them.

Recently, the lights in the Yu family's study room have been on every night, and the father and son, General Yu and Major General Yu, have rarely shown a look of embarrassment and hesitation.

"Yeah, there's going to be chaos again!"

In fact, not only in newspapers, but also in daily life, the crisis and urgency of the approaching war are clearly felt!

Not to mention anything else, there are more and more refugees fleeing in the streets and alleys of Fucheng.

Some industries run by the Zhao family have also suffered a huge blow.

Yes, there is going to be a war soon, how can we continue to do business?

This place is no better than the Magic City. There is no concession here. Once the city is destroyed, there is really no way out.

While Zhao Chuanyu was worried, his desire to become stronger became more and more urgent.

Man, she has!

Before her grandfather passed away, he left a backup plan for her.

She also has money!

After all, the Zhao family is the richest man in the city. Not to mention the factories, shops, and buildings, just the working capital on the account is enough for her to raise a team of tens of thousands of people.

It's just that she doesn't have enough weapons.

Furthermore, this kind of private armed forces is nothing compared to the entire country.

Not to mention her unfinished army, even the Yu family, which has been powerful for more than ten years, does not dare to resist easily when faced with demons.

And the general in the provincial capital probably wouldn't dare to fight head-on.

These warlords were all brave when they attacked each other.

But when encountering ghosts... You really can't blame Zhao Chuanyu for being pessimistic, she really doesn't think highly of these people.
To be continued...
