Chapter 606: Chapter 606: The Citron Daylily Should Be Cold Now!
“Humph.”
Liu Rui snorted coldly, betting on her daughter, Liu Yushui, to extract her from her current predicant. She didn’t argue with her.
“We can’t eat that much in the future, your father has already noticed that I’ve been using too much of our household’s grains. If we eat any more, we won’t have anything left to eat. We’ll starve.”
“How could my father behave like this!”
Overhearing this, Liu Yushui angrily exclaid.
“Mother, didn’t you go to the Lin Family? Did you get any silver? I’m telling you, Lin Caisang must have a lot of silver on her since her return from the county. If you can get it from her, we would no longer have to worry about our lives.”
“Begging for silver? Haven’t you seen what state I am in?” Liu Rui opened her mouth, revealing her teeth.
“I see it.”
Liu Yushui couldn’t help but shiver at the sight of her mother’s teeth, quickly averting her gaze.
“Exactly, because you’re injured, we have all the more reason to make Lin Caisang compensate us. We must claim all her silver, or… Mother, just sit in their courtyard and refuse to leave. Let’s see what they can do about it!”
Her only intention now was to deprive Lin Changfeng of the funds needed to go to Yejun, ensuring Zhou Liang’s security.
If Lin Changfeng were to pass the examination for scholar, and Zhou Liang were not to, even if she were to marry into the Zhou family, she would still have to cater to Lin Changfeng and Lin Caisang’s whims.
“You…”
Listening to her daughter, Liu Rui nearly fainted from anger. What good would creating a scene at the Lin family do?
Oh, it might have so use. Look at her, her front tooth was knocked out, and she had no idea by whom. She didn’t recall Lin Caisang making any move, and that old bastard Lu Qiubo certainly couldn’t have reached her.
It was truly baffling.
“I won’t go, if you want to, go ahead. You are carrying a child, it might be more useful if you go sit there,” she said to her daughter.
“What?”
Liu Yushui could hardly believe her ears.
Her mother actually suggested she, pregnant as she was, should sit in the Lin Family’s courtyard. She just experienced pregnancy complications, and the doctor had told her to rest. She certainly couldn’t go roaming about.
“Mother, you…”
“Enough, don’t say anything more.”
Liu Rui interrupted her when she was about to say sothing.
“Did you not hear your father’s words just now? If I go to the Lin Family again, he will miscarry your child. Do you really want your father to do that?”
“I…”
Recalling the vaguely heard conversation earlier, Liu Yushui hesitated.
Her father was indeed capable of such treachery. If she angered him, he might just do it. Then she wouldn’t have any security even if she were to marry into the Zhou family. Inviting concubines into Zhou family was just a word away for Zhou Liang’s mother.
“Well… let
think of another way.”
In any case, she cannot let Lin Changfeng get the upper hand. If her mother couldn’t help, she would seek help elsewhere.
“You, it’s better if you stay calm and focus on giving birth to the child before you think of anything else.” Liu Rui looked at her daughter, sighed lightly, and turned to leave the room.
“Hmph, if I really wait until after the birth of the child, the citron daylilies would have cooled by then!” Liu Yushui gave a cold snort at the retreating figure of Liu Rui and muttered to herself.
She placed the bread in her hand beside her pillow, struggled to get up, closed the door, and crawled back onto the bed.
