"Mother, why did that detestable woman’s gaze make one feel so uncomfortable?" Ms.Liu Junior’s brother spoke up.
"Ignore her, let’s go ho!" Ms.Liu Junior’s mother rented a carriage and then brought her younger son and the eldest daughter-in-law onto the carriage.
The money for renting the carriage was actually what was left from pawning off Ms.Liu Junior’s necklace. Reflecting on this, Ms.Liu Junior’s mother felt sowhat regretful, for she hadn’t been able to strip more silver from her daughter—if she had, perhaps she could have opened a shop in town.
Aside from her younger son, the eldest daughter-in-law was the one who understood her the most in the Liu Family.
At this mont, she spoke up, "Mother, when Qingkang is about to beco sensible, we should make sure to make more private contact."
Upon hearing this, Ms.Liu Junior’s mother just smiled and tapped the forehead of her eldest daughter-in-law, "You’re the clever one."
Yes, even without the younger daughter, there was still the grandson. What was there to fear about not having a connection?
When it ca to favoring between the eldest daughter-in-law and the younger daughter, Ms.Liu Junior indeed cherished the daughter-in-law more. Why was that? Regardless of the daughter-in-law being an outsider, in her heart, she felt that the daughter-in-law was part of the Liu Family, while her younger daughter belonged to the Yang Family—it was crystal clear who was closer.
It was precisely because of this attitude that she did not hesitate or feel a shred of pity when scheming against her younger daughter.
In the hearts of the Liu Family, this incident was now in the past.
Even if the Yang Family was incensed, they were helpless to do anything against them; therefore, after a hearty al that evening, the mbers of the Liu Family went to bed.
But when it ca to the dead of night, there were subtle noises outside of the Liu Family’s house, and as a mysterious smoke was blown in, the people inside slept even deeper.
Then two ghostly figures broke into the Liu Family, carrying one person out of the Eldest’s room, another out of the room of the younger mbers of the family, and locked them in an unused room of the Liu Family.
Right after, another waft of the mysterious smoke was blown into this vacant room.
The first figure clad in black gave a hand signal to the other, "We can leave now."
But the other figure gestured with his hands, then carried out another person from the principal wife’s room of the Liu Family.
"What is this for?" The inquiring gaze asked.
"Nonsense, of course it’s to deal with it all at once; leaving one person behind is also a curse."
So, the two figures in black carried this person away, and eventually arrived at an old bachelor’s house in Liu Village. After throwing the person inside and puffing the mysterious smoke, the deed was done.
Only after leaving Liu Village did the two remove their masks.
"Are we just going back like this? Don’t we need to keep watch? What if nothing happens?" Ye Yi was the one speaking.
"Who said we’re going back? Let’s find a place to sleep first, and just shout a few tis tomorrow morning, and that should suffice," Fugui responded. Fugui had been following Yang Chuxia to learn martial arts, and he was not bad at it now. Although he might not be on par with Ye Yi, he was far better than many others.
"Fine, then!"
Having spoken, the two looked for a place to sleep, waiting until dawn, when it was almost daybreak and the farrs were about to get up to cook, Fugui and Ye Yi split up to call for help—one shouting for the Liu Family and the other for the ho of the old bachelor.
The person who got up early in the morning to cook was Liu Family’s younger daughter-in-law. Just after washing the rice, she heard so moans and groans coming from the vacant room next door.
She was a married woman herself and familiar with such noises. She thought to herself which shaless person had co to her own ho? She tried to push the door open. Expecting it to be latched from the inside, she was surprised to find that the door opened without resistance. Then she saw two naked people inside, completely engrossed in their activities.
