Chapter 115 Aunt Liu's New Residence
She shifted the blame to someone else with just a few words. Old Madam Zhou and Zhao Yinlian felt guilty, but the person had already been punished, so there was nothing to say. Whether Aunt Liu's death was related to Aunt Zhao or not, she had to admit it.
"You haven't found out the truth yet, but you're putting pressure on the Zhou family with a bag of silver. Do you think I'm a three-year-old child who can be fooled?"
If the maid hadn't stopped her, Zhou Qianqian would have really wanted to rush over and tear Liu Mingyue apart. This woman was really cunning and treacherous.
In the past, she followed Zhou Baili just because she thought it was fun to bully this ugly girl. Now, she really regretted it. She should have used Zhou Baili to skin this ugly girl, or just let her die, so that there would not be today's disaster.
"I did put pressure on the Zhou family, that's right." Liu Mingyue did not refute Zhou Qianqian's words, but nodded seriously.
Madam Zhou and her companions looked at Liu Mingyue in surprise, wondering if she had suffered a great shock and gone crazy.
"Killing someone and paying with their life is a principle that has existed since ancient times. How could I have done anything wrong? As for who should pay with their life, I did not specify. I only said that the person who killed my mother should pay with blood, unless Aunt Zhao did not kill my mother."
Liu Mingyue sneered: "If that's the case, it's because your Zhou family didn't find out the truth. It has nothing to do with me."
Zhao Yinlian was so angry at Liu Mingyue's words that she was shaking. It was obvious that this bitch was threatening her daughter's life!
The blood flowing from Aunt Zhao, who was held in his arms, began to cool and solidify. Zhou Qianqian lowered her head, and in the shadows, her eyes were filled with indescribable complex emotions.
She clenched her hands into fists, and her beautiful red nails scratched her skin, so that her blood could not be distinguished from Aunt Zhao's blood.
In the small hall, anyone who could breathe was very cautious. Liu Mingyue had already achieved her goal, so she didn't waste any time.
"Mother, I have sought justice for you." Liu Mingyue returned to the body that had been burned beyond recognition, and her eyes softened.
Liu Mingyue ordered the servants to buy a coffin and bury Aunt Liu. After that, the Zhou family would take care of everything else. After all, Aunt Liu was a member of the Zhou family, and the funeral could only be handled by the Zhou family.
"Madam Zhou, I also know that you think that a daughter who marries out should not interfere in her mother's family affairs. I have said this much. My mother's funeral affairs will be left to you." Liu Mingyue took a deep look at the corpse covered with white cloth, and left the Zhou Mansion with a group of people.
On the way back to the Hou Mansion from the Zhou Mansion, Huasheng and Guihua reached a rare state of silence, and Liu Mingyue was actually in a good mood.
Next, there will be a commotion in the Zhou Mansion. Aunt Zhao will not live long. When she dies, Zhou Qianqian will definitely hate Zhao Yinlian and Old Madam Zhou in her heart. Her trick of sowing discord is enough to make Zhou Qianqian alienated from them.
People's hatred always needs a place to vent. Liu Mingyue is in the Marquis' Mansion, and Zhou Qianqian can't reach her, let alone revenge? Old Madam Zhou and the others are different. They live under the same roof. They can see each other every time they look up, which is much more convenient.
"Madam, if you want to cry, just cry. Don't force yourself to smile. It makes me scared." Peanut sat obediently in the carriage, observing Liu Mingyue's expression from time to time.
He noticed that his master sometimes had a gloomy look on his face, and sometimes had a hint of smile in his eyes. He looked quite scary.
"I've cried enough."
Liu Mingyue clenched her fists and pressed them against her forehead. She cried too hard in Zhou's house and now her head hurts. Guihua was considerate and sat close to her and massaged Liu Mingyue's head: "Will this make you feel better, Madam?"
"Yeah." Liu Mingyue closed her mouth and responded, looking at Huasheng with a squint, "Don't look at me like that, I'm fine."
Peanut looked at Osmanthus and didn't dare to say anything. He nodded and then shook his head, as if he had a thousand words to say.
The fire at Zhou Mansion was a bit difficult to explain at the moment, so Liu Mingyue decided not to explain the whole story to them for the time being.
They are all capable people around her. They will soon know that Aunt Liu is not dead. They can talk about it then.
After leaving Zhou's house, Liu Mingyue didn't have to pretend all the time. The hostility in her eyes disappeared and she looked much more tired. In case someone followed her, Liu Mingyue didn't go to find Aunt Liu immediately.
Long before the plan was implemented, she had already told the maid who was in charge of serving Aunt Liu to arrange everything in the house. Since this was where her mother would live for a long time, she certainly couldn't let her mother suffer any grievances.
In the forest outside Beijing, a small carriage stopped in front of a house. The maid put the pedals in place and rolled up the curtains. She bowed respectfully and asked the people in the carriage to get out: "Madam, we have arrived."
"Thank you." A gentle female voice came from the carriage, followed by a white arm holding the edge of the carriage. The person inside leaned out, and it was a beautiful woman. The woman looked around and then lifted her skirt and walked out of the carriage.
In the quiet and remote forest outside Beijing, there is actually a magnificent mansion. There is no plaque on the mansion and it looks low-key from the outside, but judging from the materials used to build the house, it must have cost a lot of money.
"Is this my son's house?" Liu Zhu, with her hair tied up in a white hairpin, pointed at the quaint house in front of her in disbelief.
The maid pushed the door open and stepped aside to signal Liu Zhu to come in. "Yes, the master has told us to take good care of the lady's food and daily life. If there is anything you need, just tell me."
The servants that Liu Mingyue arranged for Aunt Liu were all reliable and had clean backgrounds, otherwise Liu Mingyue would not be able to rest assured.
Liu Zhu walked into the house with the help of the servants. After entering the door, he saw the front yard with simple and elegant decoration. In the flowerbed of the front yard, you can see that there are many precious flowers and plants, and the curtains hanging under the eaves exude a faint wood fragrance.
She knew that her daughter was running a business, but she didn't know that her daughter's business was doing so well.
This house doesn't seem to have any luxurious decorations, but every piece of furnishing is very valuable. You can't buy it without 1,000 taels of silver.
"What do these people do?" Liu Zhu saw a group of people walking towards this side, all wearing soft armor and dressed as guards.
"The master is worried about the lady, so in addition to the servants, he has also arranged for you to have maids and guards. These people will patrol the entire house and protect your safety, so you can stay here without worry. When the time comes, the master will come to see you."
Liu Zhu was very pleased to know that her daughter was so promising. Not only was she doing well in business, but she was also able to arrange other things in an orderly manner.
I don’t know when, my daughter has grown up and is no longer the little girl who only knew how to hold me and act coquettishly.
"I really miss my daughter, and I have a lot to say to her. I wonder when the time will be as Madam Nanny said?" Liu Zhu walked to the corridor and looked around. The flowers in the flowerbed were blooming brightly. Liu Zhu suddenly wanted to pick a flower and put it in his daughter's hair.
