Chapter 105: It's not a big loss to have two lives buried with me, right?
"The wound on mother's face needs to be taken to see a doctor. I'm sorry that I can't accompany you. As for Madam Zhou, the punishment ends here." After Liu Mingyue said this, she took Aunt Liu and left the Zhou Mansion.
The old lady is old and has an imperial decree. Liu Mingyue knows the importance of the matter and will not confront her head-on.
As long as the old lady didn't do anything excessive, Liu Mingyue didn't mind doing her a favor and let the matter go.
Old Madam Zhou doesn't care about the affairs of the rear house, but as long as she is not stupid, she should know how Liu Mingyue has been living in the Zhou Mansion over the years.
After taking two steps, Liu Mingyue remembered something and looked at Zhao Yinlian, who was almost unable to recover from the beating, with a smile.
"In the Marquis' Mansion, Aunt Zhou was disrespectful to me. I was in a good mood, so I didn't bother to argue with her. But please tell her that if she makes me feel bad or anything happens to make me unhappy, I will have nothing to lose. The worst that can happen is that both sides will be destroyed."
Liu Mingyue sneered. Not only Zhou Baili, but even Zhao Yinlian valued the child in her belly very much.
Facing Zhao Yinlian's horrified gaze, Liu Mingyue smiled and said, "It's not a big loss to have two lives buried with me, right?"
After warning the Zhou family, Liu Mingyue took Aunt Liu away. Zhao Yinlian and Old Lady Zhou also realized that Liu Mingyue's character had changed, and she even took Zhu Baihe's baby into account.
Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. Old Madam Zhou and Zhao Yinlian understood this truth. After listening to what Liu Mingyue said, the people in the main hall shuddered, fearing that Liu Mingyue would come.
Especially Old Madam Zhou and Zhao Yinlian. The child in Zhou Baili's belly is important not only to the Marquis' Mansion, but also to the Zhou Mansion.
Whether the Zhou family can steadily climb up the Marquis's family ladder depends entirely on the child in Zhou Baili's belly. Nothing can go wrong between the mother and the child.
Liu Mingyue brought Aunt Liu to Bai Ziyu's private residence. She knew the secret button of Bai Ziyu's door, so she opened the door by herself without waiting for Bai Ziyu to open it.
But she just stood in the front yard and called Bai Ziyu's name.
Bai Ziyu walked out quickly after hearing Liu Mingyue's voice, but his eyes fell on Aunt Liu's face, who had already taken off the curtain: "This...what happened? Why was she beaten like this?"
After asking, Bai Ziyu looked at Liu Mingyue worriedly. Liu Mingyue's clothes were neat and her face looked normal, and she was not injured.
"Please help me check if my mother has any other injuries besides the skin wounds, such as the eardrum." Liu Mingyue avoided Bai Ziyu's question. When she found that she was unwilling to say it, Bai Ziyu tactfully did not ask any more questions.
"The eardrum is intact, only the face is injured. Just apply some ointment." After Bai Ziyu helped Aunt Liu, he took out the ointment he had newly developed from the medicine box. The raw materials used in the ointment were all of the best quality.
"Let me do it." Liu Mingyue took the ointment box, dipped her fingertips in it, and gently helped Aunt Liu apply it.
Even though Liu Mingyue was very careful, Aunt Liu still frowned in pain when her cheek was touched.
Noticing her daughter's gloomy face, Aunt Liu endured the pain and comforted Liu Mingyue, "Mingyue, mother is fine. This young master also said that mother only had a superficial wound and will heal quickly after applying medicine."
When he touched her red and swollen cheek, she was clearly grimacing, but facing Liu Mingyue, he still endured the pain and comforted her.
Liu Mingyue pursed her lips and applied the medicine more carefully. After she finished applying the medicine, Aunt Liu remembered the question she wanted to ask.
"Madam punished me this morning. How did you know about what happened in the mansion so quickly?" Aunt Liu originally wanted to hide it from Liu Mingyue. The external injuries on her face would disappear in five or six days at most, and her daughter would not know about her injury by then.
After closing the jade bottle, Liu Mingyue sat down, held Aunt Liu's hand, and explained in a deep voice: "I have arranged people in your courtyard."
Liu Mingyue would certainly not hide anything from Aunt Liu, and there was nothing to hide.
Bai Ziyu went back to the house to get the ointment for daily use. As soon as he came out, he heard the conversation between the mother and daughter, so he quietly retreated back into the house and gave the space to the mother and daughter.
After Liu Mingyue got married, she couldn't go back to Zhou Mansion at will. Even to see her mother, she had to wait for some time. Every time they met, of course, she had a lot to say.
"The person my daughter arranged is trustworthy. She will keep an eye on things happening in your yard. If anyone embarrasses you or you encounter any difficulties, that person will come and tell me."
After all, he was arranging someone around Aunt Liu, so he should explain it to her. Having an eyeliner made it convenient for Liu Mingyue, but for Aunt Liu, being monitored might not be pleasant.
Liu Mingyue originally thought that Aunt Liu didn't want to make her worry and might not let her arrange anyone in the yard, so she didn't tell her at first.
Aunt Liu frowned when she heard this. Liu Mingyue felt a little uneasy, thinking that her mother was dissatisfied with what she had done.
"You...I know you are doing this for my own good, but Zhao Yinlian is the mistress of a family after all. You should not go against her. It is true that Zhou Junyuan is dead, but you are nominally from the Zhou family. If you are not on good terms with her in public, you will be the one who suffers."
Having been a concubine in the mansion for so long, Aunt Liu had suffered a lot and understood that the difference between a concubine and a principal wife was absolute. In the final analysis, Zhao Yinlian was only the mistress of the Zhou Mansion and the nominal mother of Liu Mingyue.
As long as Liu Mingyue still bears the title of Zhou family's adopted daughter, she has to take this into consideration.
Our dynasty values filial piety. Even if Liu Mingyue is just an adopted daughter of the Zhou family, she must respect Zhao Yinlian as her mistress.
"Mother, don't worry. If I didn't have anything in my hand, it would be a shame to fight her with my bare hands. But how could your daughter do something that would put herself at a disadvantage?"
In order to make Aunt Liu feel happier, Liu Mingyue winked at her mischievously.
"My status as an adopted daughter is indeed tricky, but Zhao Yinlian's daughter is a concubine in the Marquis's mansion. Even if I am not favored by His Highness, I am still a legitimate Crown Princess."
Liu Mingyue yawned. She had thought about all these complicated things on the way to Zhou Mansion.
"Are you trying to use Aunt Zhou to restrain the mistress?" Aunt Liu asked her daughter tentatively.
Liu Mingyue nodded: "Mother, think about it, as long as Zhao Yinlian doesn't want her good daughter to be wronged in the Marquis' Mansion, she has to be careful. Not everyone can be manipulated at will."
"Zi Yu, thank you so much today. I'm busy now. I'll thank you again when I get the chance."
After applying the medicine to Aunt Liu, Liu Mingyue planned to take everyone back to Zhou Mansion first, as there must be some dirty things going on there.
She beat Zhao Yinlian, and this matter will not just let go. Trouble cannot be avoided, so she has to face it head-on.
"Why should we thank each other?" Bai Ziyu handed the daily medicine to Liu Mingyue with a smile. Liu Mingyue could see clearly the meaningful look in his eyes.
