Chapter 92 Escape
Liu's heart was filled with resentment. After knowing Daya's situation, she could not just sit there and wait for death. She had to find a way to rescue Daya.
But now a new problem appeared before her: where was Daya sold to? Even if she wanted to rescue Daya, she still needed money.
She licked her dry lips, her mind in a mess, and she had no idea what to do.
Erya was holding a bowl and saw her mother clinging to the door frame. She ran forward and grabbed the corner of Liu's clothes.
"Mother, what's wrong with you? Why do you seem so sad?"
"Erya, I'm fine." Liu pretended to be calm.
"Then mother, can we see my sister the day after tomorrow?" Erya missed her sister very much and had been looking forward to it for a long time.
"Well, mother will find a way to take you to see Daya." When Liu said this, she also made a certain determination.
Pei knew some news that might be related to Daya, and had wanted to tell Liu last night.
But it was late at night and Mrs. Liu wouldn't come out, and he couldn't just knock on the door and go in, so he could only suppress the idea for the time being.
She started paying attention to the situation at the Liu family early in the morning, because Mrs. Liu would go to the river to fetch water to wash clothes every day.
Not long after, Liu really came out and Pei also walked out of the house.
Mrs. Liu's mental state looked very bad, her face was pale. When she saw Mrs. Pei, the Pei family had done her a great favor. She forced a smile on her face, but that smile was uglier than crying.
This change in her was probably due to the news she received yesterday.
Pei didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "Liu, do you want to know the news about Yihongyuan?"
Upon hearing this, Liu's originally dejected expression suddenly changed. She became excited and even stepped forward to grab Pei's hand, her voice trembling, "What...you...what news do you know?"
Liu was probably too excited and didn't control the strength of her hands well. When she saw Pei's face looked a little uncomfortable, she immediately reacted and reduced the strength of her hands, but did not let go.
"There's a Yihongyuan in the neighboring Licheng. Maybe Daya was sold there."
"Li...City." Liu muttered. Licheng was in the next county, so it was indeed possible. She had to go there to take a look. She would not miss any opportunity to find Daya!
After receiving this crucial information, Liu was extremely grateful to Pei and the Pei family.
After delivering this crucial message, Pei turned around and went back home, praying in her heart that Liu could help find Daya. It was not a pleasant feeling for a mother and daughter to be forced to separate, and she hoped that Daya did not suffer.
Liu was absent-minded. She rubbed the clothes a few times and hung them on the bamboo rack to dry. In order to bring Daya back, she had to have money, and to get the money she had to enter her mother-in-law's room.
She knew where her mother-in-law kept the money. Anyway, it was the money she got from selling Daya, and she would not allow her mother-in-law to spend it.
Old Lady Liu saw Mrs. Liu standing there stupidly and called out, "Why are you standing there? Go wash the floor in my room!"
"Okay, mother." Liu walked into the master bedroom with her head lowered. She didn't expect that the opportunity would come to her door. After cleaning the room, she pretended nothing had happened and left.
At noon, the hot weather makes people drowsy. Old Mrs. Liu usually has the habit of sleeping at this time. The men in the Liu family also go out to work and usually do not come back at noon. They will finish work in the evening.
Liu packed some things casually, including the new clothes prepared for Daya, and then took Erya's hand and left quietly.
Erya had been instructed before, so she was very well behaved and didn't make any sound. She followed Liu's steps and left quietly.
Liu opened the door with one hand, held Erya's hand with the other, and walked out. She had already planned to find a ox cart that could go to the next county and find Yihongyuan.
The moment she stepped out of the door, Liu turned around and looked at her family. There was pain of being deceived, struggle and entanglement, as well as the courage to go all out in her eyes. She herself didn't know what to do next. Now she had only one goal, which was to rescue Daya.
As for the rest, they could only take it one step at a time. She pulled Erya and walked forward quickly, wanting to escape quickly and rescue Daya.
At this moment, a devilish whisper sounded from behind, "Sister-in-law, where are you taking Arya?"
When Liu heard her brother-in-law's voice, her heart skipped a beat and began beating so fast that it seemed as if it was about to jump out of her throat.
She adjusted the spear on her face, turned around and said calmly, "There's an emergency at my mother's house, I need to take Erya back to see her."
"Really? I thought you wanted to leave with all those bags!" Liu Laoer crossed his arms and said casually.
Liu's grip on Erya's hand tightened, but she still pretended to be calm. "Second brother, what are you talking about? How could I possibly leave? And even if I go back, mother will know!"
After Liu finished saying this, Liu Laoer only had a half-smile on his face, as if he was looking forward to a good show.
She held Erya tightly behind her, always feeling that something bad was going to happen.
The next second, as if to confirm her idea, the mother-in-law, who was supposed to be taking a lunch break at this time, was standing at the door. She put her hands on her hips and looked in her direction with wide eyes.
Liu's heart finally died. It was all over... It was all over...
These three words popped up in her mind instantly, and she was caught trying to escape; her plan also failed...
"Oh! You are running away in such a hurry. Is your father or your mother dead?" Old Mrs. Liu said it very unpleasantly, without leaving Liu any face at all.
Liu, who was caught, knew she was in the wrong, so she didn't lower her head or refute, but just protected Erya even more tightly!
Old Lady Liu came to Mrs. Liu and wanted to snatch the bag from her shoulders. She wanted to see what this little bitch had brought from their house.
Although Liu was protecting her tightly, she only had one hand and the other hand was used to hold Erya, so the bag on her shoulder was easily snatched away by Liu.
Old Mrs. Liu opened the bundle and found a new set of clothes inside. The style looked like it was for children to wear. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
Liu Laoer, who was standing far away, saw it clearly and started shouting, "Mom, this bitch wants to run away, she must have money on her!"
Hearing this, Old Lady Liu immediately stepped forward and began to search Liu's body. Liu's forehead was covered with cold sweat. She wanted to avoid it, but Old Lady Liu grabbed her arm tightly and searched her body all over.
As expected, when she found three taels of silver, Old Lady Liu's eyes burned with anger.
