Chapter 666: Chapter 666 What the hell is this?
If only I hadn’t fed that girl so much last night. Look at what has happened now – she has run off after filling her belly! What am I supposed to do? I can’t afford to buy another servant girl!
“Mom, stop shouting at . We need to think of a solution. Should we go out and look for her?” Liu Yushui asked.
“What’s the point of searching? Do you think we are going to find her?”
Liu Rui was exasperated with Liu Yushui. What difference would it make if they found the girl?
“You’re just unbelievable. How could you be so negligent with the contract? Now even if we find her, without the contract it’s all for nothing!”
“But… But I was asleep.”
Liu Yushui still thought of herself as innocent, and couldn’t help but mumble a reply.
“Didn’t I tell you to put away the contract? But you insisted on leaving it here, and now you’re blaming
when things go wrong!”
“I…”
Liu Rui was speechless.
What could she say? What if Liu Baixiao had found the contract hidden on her?
After she entered the room, Liu Baixiao was incredibly cruel to her. If he had discovered Feng Lvzhi’s contract, she might have been beaten to death by him for real.
“Enough. What’s done is done. Zhou Liang is coming soon, you better go.”
“Mom, you want
to go?”
Liu Yushui couldn’t believe her words and gawked, questioning.
“My stomach still hurts. If I go now, I won’t be able to protect the baby!”
“Then what am I supposed to do?”
Liu Rui, exasperated, retorted.
“So, I should go on your behalf?”
“Go to the town right now and buy us another servant girl. We still have ti.” Liu Yushui quickly replied.
“Where would I get that much silver?!”
Liu Rui’s eyes widened in fury.
She had used all her silver to purchase this servant girl. Where could she get more silver to buy another one, unless she stole Liu Baixiao’s silver?
“You…”
Liu Yushui didn’t know what to say and could only sit on the edge of the bed.
“So, what should we do?”
“If worst cos to worst, just don’t go today.” Liu Rui suggested.
“How can that be?” Liu Yushui imdiately stood up.
What if Zhou Liang got angry and stopped coming because she didn’t go?
“Why not? As long as you bear a son, Zhou Liang will still co and gladly take you both back.”
Liu Rui said, annoyed.
“Trust ; leave Zhou Liang alone for a few days to let him cool down. Don’t let him lose control and hurt his own son.”
“But…”
Liu Yushui agreed with Liu Rui’s advice.
“However, we must let him know. We had an agreent, and I suddenly stand him up, how can this be?”
“I’ll talk to him.” Liu Rui said.
She refused to believe that if she, as the mother-in-law, personally spoke to Zhou Liang, he would dare to argue with her.
“Well… okay.”
Liu Yushui agreed and decided to follow Liu Rui’s plan.
…
In the bamboo forest, a glum Zhou Liang erged, cursing under his breath as he walked.
Shortly after Zhou Liang had left, Liu Rui also walked out. She crouched down and looked around to make sure no one was nearby. Only then did she take the ti to tidy up her dishevelled appearance and straighten her hair before officially stepping out.
