For this matter, Liu made a special trip back to the town and asked Xia Youcai what to do next.

She had tried several times before to get money from the old couple, but the results were like trying to light a lamp for a blind man - a waste of wax.

Perhaps Xia Youcai would have to take action personally, or at least give him some advice from behind the scenes. If he relied solely on his own abilities, his efforts would probably be in vain, and he wouldn't be able to convince the old couple at all.

When Xia Youcai heard about the situation in the fourth room, his eyes flashed.

At this moment, the couple in the first wife's house were only thinking about the benefits that were about to come, and completely forgot that based on the character of the couple in the fourth wife's house, if they could still endure it, how could they possibly break off the relationship with them?

Since we have already severed our relationship with them, it means that they have been tolerating them for a long time.

Only when one is unable to tolerate it any longer will they resort to tactics like "breaking off ties".

It’s not that Xia Youcai had completely forgotten about the document of severing the relationship.

However, he always felt that if Liu had not grabbed his hand and pressed the fingerprint, the fourth brother might still be embarrassed when he saw his condition.

Thinking of this, Xia Youcai couldn't help but glare at Liu fiercely.

When Liu was glared at by Xia Youcai, she felt a chill on the back of her neck. She immediately hunched her shoulders and lowered her head, not saying a word and not daring to breathe.

Seeing that Liu was so honest, Xia Youcai felt like he had punched cotton, and ended up hurting himself internally.

He took two deep breaths before he managed to suppress his anger. He waved at Liu and waited for her to come forward timidly. Then he whispered a few words into her ear.

As Liu listened, her eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly, then hurried to the village.

That evening, Liu accompanied the old couple for dinner and was very attentive.

"Mom, eat this. It's soft and easy to digest."

"Dad, please try this wine. It's a fine wine that your eldest son specially bought from someone. It's not available on the market."

"Mom, these vegetables are newly arrived these days and are very tender. These vegetable seeds are from the south. In our Beiguan Town, there are only two shops that sell them."

Old Master Xia and Mrs. Zhou let Mrs. Liu busy herself without saying anything.

It has been less than a year since the separation, and they have already become accustomed to the Liu family's performances.

Zhou had been secretly planning a surprise attack on Jin Yong recently, but she hadn't found the opportunity yet. No one knew where that bastard Jin Yong had gone; he seemed to have vanished from Beiguan Town.

However, his home has not moved away, so there is no need to worry about him not coming back!

Zhou had this thought in her mind. Although she felt that she could do it without leaving any trace, she was also prepared to pay with her life if the matter was exposed.

Therefore, when Zhou looked at the people around her at this time, her eyes were a little different from before.

Although Liu usually kept her thoughts hidden, she had been very anxious and obvious in her recent visits home. It seemed that she was really in trouble.

However, the eldest brother and his wife actually did something like plotting against their own niece, which clearly shows that they don’t really regard these brothers as family members.

Although Zhou suppressed the fourth son and prevented the matter from spreading, most family members did not know why the first and fourth wives broke up.

But Zhou suppressed the matter for the sake of the family's dignity. It was not because she was unprincipled and favored the eldest wife, nor was it because she was not angry with the eldest wife.

Seeing Liu's extraordinary attentiveness at this time, Zhou couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

What trouble is the eldest wife going to cause again?

Mrs. Liu didn't say anything, neither did she mention money nor the difficulties her family encountered, as if she just wanted to be more affectionate to the old couple.

Seeing Liu like this, the old couple couldn't help but feel a little surprised for a moment. Could it be that they were too stubborn and blamed their eldest daughter-in-law wrongly?

Liu and Jinhua settled down in the old house, and their daily lives in the village resumed.

I cook when it’s time to cook and wash clothes when it’s time to wash clothes. Although the movements are a bit unfamiliar, I can do them pretty well after two days of getting used to them.

The old couple observed secretly and felt that they might have really wronged Liu.

Even if someone used to be cunning and dishonest, couldn't they have experienced setbacks, learned lessons, and become a new person?

However, I still have to slow down and wait and see, otherwise I will still feel uneasy!

The old couple looked at each other tacitly without saying anything, but they knew what each other was thinking.

Seeing that the old couple didn't say anything for a long time, Liu thought that she would have to continue pretending tomorrow and she was almost exhausted... But, for the sake of money, she had to hold on no matter how tired she was!

Liu secretly went to the edge of Nanhu Lake and watched from afar how the fourth wife was living in her new home.

It just so happened that Erlang came with the waiter and the manager of the restaurant to pick up the goods.

Seeing jars of pickles being carried out like water, and the manager smiling happily as he handed Erlang a bulging purse, Liu's breathing suddenly became heavier.

Then I heard Sun bragging about how Erlang had become successful, had made a lot of money, and was already planning to marry the young widow named Zhou that she had set her eyes on...

Liu felt that the first wife could not just sit there and watch the fourth wife's business.

Before, she thought that the fourth room's business would not make much money. It was the fourth room that was so abominable and so good at pretending that she was deceived!

Therefore, these days, Liu has been trying hard to pretend to be diligent and filial, constantly trying to gain favor in front of the old couple.

I'm just waiting for a suitable opportunity to propose joining the couple.

Of course, thanks to Xia Youcai's guidance, Liu would not mention the fourth house's business every time she opened her mouth, nor would she cry poor.

The excuse she used this time was to apologize to the fourth room.

Not only do they have to apologize, but they also have to smooth over the "severance of the relationship" and the document of severing the relationship must be taken back as soon as possible.

A family is still a family. They are obviously blood relatives. How can they completely cut off contact just because of a little misunderstanding?

Later, Dalang passed the imperial examination and became an official, and the family relationship was not severed, which also made Fourth Uncle proud.

Even if the fourth brother's family didn't mind these false reputations, the marriages of his nephews and nieces would at least benefit from it. Even if the fourth brother and his wife didn't think about themselves, couldn't they also think about their children?

Liu had prepared her words silently in her mind, waiting for the old couple to give in and arrange the apology banquet for her, then she would blurt out all these words.

The old couple finally couldn't stand Liu and Jinhua's pestering and decided to allow the eldest wife to hold the wedding banquet in the old house. They came forward and invited the fourth wife and her husband to come over.

After all, although the fourth wife and her husband severed their relationship with the first wife, they did not have such a quarrel with the old couple and the other branches. They were still blood relatives.

The old couple invited them to dinner, and there was absolutely no reason for them not to show up.
