Chapter 106: Clean Money
In the end, Mrs. Liao didn’t know how she left there and got on her own carriage.
She just felt like the sky was falling! For so many years, the world she had always believed in was actually fake! It was a fake world deliberately created by someone with ulterior motives!
The man beside her not only had two hearts with her, but was also so vicious that he could even kill his own flesh and blood! How could he...how could he be so cruel!
And that bastard! She had always treated him as a relative, and had taken good care of him and protected him in all the years she lived in the mansion, but what was the result? Was he always laughing at her and laughing at her in his heart?
The more she thought about it, the more she hated him. As soon as Mrs. Liao sat down in the carriage, she felt a fishy-sweet taste in her throat. She quickly covered her mouth with a handkerchief. The thin handkerchief was soon soaked with the blood she vomited.
"Madam!"
Mrs. Liao gasped and closed her eyes, but her eyeballs under her eyelids kept turning, "It's okay, go home! Everything that just happened... Keep your mouth shut, don't reveal a single word!"
Xiaoqing was already scared and nodded desperately.
Mrs. Liao gritted her teeth and leaned her head against the wall of the carriage.
She would confirm it. If it was really like what they said, she... would never let it go!
The three brothers in the room were ecstatic looking at the banknotes.
The three of them opened their mouths wide and wanted to scream and cheer, but they were afraid that the sound would be too loud and get out. Money can't be exposed! But they were really too excited and too happy!
So the three of them could only open their mouths wide, put their fingers in their mouths, and run back and forth in the room like crazy, turning around and making a constant howl.
Sister Feng was so scared that she thought something had happened, and ran out of the room in a hurry. As a result, she saw that the three of them were crazy.
"Stop!"
She couldn't help but yelled, with her hands on her hips, "What are you doing?"
Boss Feng stopped, turned his head to look at his wife, rushed over like a gust of wind, picked up Sister Feng who was caught off guard, and spun around in circles!
Mrs. Feng was startled. After she came to her senses, she slapped his shoulder in anger, "You old lunatic, what are you doing? Let me down quickly, or I'll punish you!"
After Mr. Feng had vented his excitement, he let him down. Before Mrs. Feng could say anything, something was stuffed into her hand. Mr. Feng's second and third brothers also came over and stuffed something into her hand.
She looked down and was stunned. After a while, he suspiciously picked up the thing in his hand and looked at it carefully, and asked uncertainly: "Is this... a banknote?"
Boss Feng lowered his voice, but he still couldn't hide his excitement, "Yes, banknotes, a full one thousand taels! We earned it all, cleanly!"
Boss Feng's voice trembled a little at the end.
Yes, they earned it cleanly!
They can really make money, upright, and with a clear conscience! No longer have to be like before!
Feng Lao Er and Feng Lao San obviously thought of the past, and the three brothers suddenly hugged their heads and cried. For the sad days when they fell into the quagmire and struggled to survive, and had to become bandits, and for the days full of light and hope in the present and the future.
Mrs. Feng was looking at the banknote stupidly. After a long time, she came back to her senses and showed a dull smile on her face, but her eyes were unusually bright.
People in ancient times had less life, and women had even less fun in life. In this case, she could only continue to pay attention to gossip.
She was a little curious about what Mrs. Liao would do. But she felt that women in feudal society would most likely choose to swallow their anger and pretend that nothing had happened. After all, she was married and had a daughter, and the choices she could make were very limited.
But this time she was obviously wrong. As
usual, she went to the old lady's yard to pay her respects.
The old lady was not a harsh person. On the contrary, the old lady was quite open-minded and never asked her daughter-in-law, grandchildren to serve her. She also yelled that if they came every day, it would not be filial piety, but annoying, and it made her upset, so she just asked them to come occasionally.
Xu Muhua felt that the old lady might not really think so, and it is very likely that she did not want to restrict the younger generation in the family. Especially Xu's mother, the daughter-in-law. Her son was not at home for a long time, and the whole family relied on her daughter-in-law for support, which was already very tiring.
A harmonious family is the foundation of everything. At her age, all she wanted was a harmonious family.
The original owner was indeed very filial to the old lady and often came to pay her respects. Xu Muhua did not change this habit after she came.
She came as usual that day, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw her grandmother and her mother were very close to each other, as if they were whispering something, but the expressions on their faces were a little weird.
"Grandma, mother, what are you whispering about?"
The old lady waved her hand slyly, "Come here, grandma will tell you."
"Mother!"
Xu's mother was helpless.
She felt that this matter was not suitable to be told to her daughter.
The old lady glared at her, "Muhua is not young anymore, and she is about to get married. Do you want her to be like Mrs. Liao in the future?"
Xu's mother shut up immediately.
Xu Muhua's heart moved. Mrs. Liao, is it the Mrs. Liao she knew? What happened?
The old lady's mentality was so young, and she was full of gossip when talking about other people's affairs, like eating melons. She took Xu Muhua's hand and talked about the most lively drama in the capital in the past two days.
"Grandma told you that Madam Liao - oh, this Madam Liao is the lady of the Liao family. It turns out that Lord Liao and your father also knew each other. They had been in contact with each other for a period of time when they were young. Now it seems that your father is lucky that he did not associate with Lord Liao anymore, otherwise, who knows what would have happened!"
The old lady looked relieved and glanced at Xu's mother obscurely.
Xu's mother didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Even if they continued to associate, the old man would not do anything against human ethics! Besides, the relationship between her and the old man is real, unlike the couple of the Liao family.
Xu's mother also sympathized with Madam Liao.
Xu Muhua saw that the old lady didn't know where to go on with the topic, and didn't talk about the main business for a long time, so she couldn't help asking: "What happened to the Liao family?"
After being reminded by her, the old lady changed the subject and said, "It's that Lord Liao, the filthy thing cursed by heaven, who is a man of good fortune! That's fine, but since he has a wife, why doesn't he live a good life instead of making trouble? He even kept his lover in the Liao Mansion and did some dirty things under the nose of Madam Liao! He also allowed that man to swap the daughters born to Madam Liao and kept them in the mansion as servants for several years!"
