She would never take that risk!
“Mother, you yourself said that Lin Caisang is a sly vixen. If Zhou Liang sees her now and is bewitched by her, what are we going to do?”
“This, um…”
Liu Rui stopped her words and kept her lips sealed.
After a while, she ca up with another idea and turned to speak to Liu Yushui.
“What if we invite Zhou Liang to our house and let him tell your father that Feng Lvzhi was bought for you? Your father, despite his poor treatnt of us, can’t stand to be outdone. If he knew Feng Lvzhi belongs to us, he would find a way to get her back. What do you think?”
“That’s even worse.”
Liu Yushui once again refuted her proposal.
“My father is a pushover. He might shrink into himself after a few words from Lin Caisang, trembling all over. How can we expect him to get her back? Besides, Feng Lvzhi’s deeds of sale have been stolen and could be with Lin Caisang by now.
If Feng Lvzhi spills the beans about why we bought her to Lin Caisang, and my father tries to get her back, what if Lin Caisang directly tells my father everything? Would we still be off the hook then?”
“If this doesn’t work, and that doesn’t work, what are we supposed to do? We can’t just make things easy for Lin Caisang, can we?” Liu Rui asked.
She had spent all her money to buy Feng Lvzhi, and if she made things easy for Lin Caisang, how was she supposed to swallow that?
“Let
think about it so more, there has to be a way.” Liu Yushui calmly responded.
For them, Feng Lvzhi was a hot potato right now. If they forcefully brought her back, Liu Baixiao would surely be suspicious. It was better to leave her with Lin Caisang for the ti being.
She could think it over carefully. Perhaps they could use Feng Lvzhi to drive a wedge between Lin Caisang and Ya Molian?
That Ya Molian and Lin Caisang were only engaged yet behaving as if they were already married, hosting so many banquets. If these two ended up tying the knot, their lives would surely beco better and better.
That bitch Lin Caisang, how could she allow her to lead a better life than herself? This was absolutely unacceptable.
“You better think of a way quickly.”
Upon hearing her say this, Liu Rui prompted her again.
“Look at all these chores around the house. If we brought that girl back, she could help you a little. Starting tomorrow, we have to carry water from Manghuang Mountain. As a frail woman, how can I possibly manage it? If only that girl was still here, we could let her–”
“Mother, have you had enough yet?”
Listening to Liu Rui’s nagging, Liu Yushui felt a surge of frustration.
Didn’t she want Feng Lvzhi, that little bitch, to return as well? If Feng Lvzhi hadn’t run away, would she be clutching her stomach bearing the pain while taking care of the household chores? She would have dumped it on Feng Lvzhi long ago.
But now that the girl had run away, and even stole her deeds of sale, what could she do?
“I’m just venting.”
Liu Rui bit her lip and muttered.
She had lost the bet and her money was gone, the person had run away. Wasn’t she even allowed to vent a little?
If she didn’t speak, she would be suffocated!
“Mother, let
tell you, Feng Lvzhi will never co back. Her deed of sale is likely in the hands of Lin Caisang. Otherwise, why would Lin Caisang keep a free girl by her side?”
Liu Yushui spoke.
