Chapter 30 The Old Lady Invites
What a beautiful headpiece!
It will surely sell for a lot of money!
Maybe the money from her niece Tongtong’s hand reading is enough!
"This...this is so embarrassing." Liu laughed dryly, but she was already tempted.
"If you can help me complete this task, I will reward you handsomely!" Mrs. Hu smiled kindly and sincerely, but in her heart she despised and disdained this peasant woman who had never seen the world!
"Okay, leave it to me! Apart from anything else, my master is still working under Lord Hu. Just for this reason, I can't refuse!" Liu said happily.
"Then I'll leave everything to you, sister. I know that you are not only beautiful, but also kind-hearted! No wonder the second master of the Li family insisted on marrying you back then. He was willing to run away from home to marry you!" Mrs. Hu covered her mouth and chuckled, with contempt in her eyes becoming more obvious.
Mrs. Liu was extremely happy. This was the proudest and happiest thing in her life!
"Hehe..." She reached out and touched her face. She almost forgot her last name and took the blame directly. "Sister, just stay home and relax. This matter is over. Why pay any money? You don't have to pay anything! I dare not say anything else, but when it comes to matters involving our Li family, my words still count!"
"Okay, then I thank you, sister!" Mrs. Hu, realizing she had achieved her goal, didn't want to stay with Liu even for a moment, so she stood up and said, "I have other things to do, so I won't be with you. I've already asked the waiter to prepare two boxes of snacks for you to take with you. I'll be leaving now."
Liu stood up to see her off, but Mrs. Hu walked away quickly.
After walking out of the room, he spat at Liu who was still eating snacks in the room, then remembered that he had held her hand, so he took Nanny Jiang's handkerchief and wiped it.
"Madam, your hands are all red. Don't rub them anymore. Let's just go back and wash them thoroughly." Nanny Jiang immediately advised her.
"Hmph! She actually calls me sister! She doesn't even realize what kind of person she is! If the master hadn't been in a difficult position to intervene in this matter, would I have come to see her? She's just a stupid and foolish peasant woman, a lowly creature who will never change in her lifetime!" Mrs. Hu threw away the handkerchief in her hand and walked away.
After Liu finished the last piece of dessert, she asked the waiter for two more boxes and went home happily.
Liu walked into the room leisurely, humming a little tune and carrying some snacks.
Just as she was about to return to her west courtyard, she was stopped by Qingxing who was guarding the door.
Qing Xing knelt down, "Second Madam, the old lady invites you!"
Liu was stunned. Her mother-in-law invited her?
Did the sun rise from the west today?
First, her husband's boss's wife asked her to do something, and when she got home, her mother-in-law also asked her to do something!
This has never happened before!
Liu immediately straightened her chest, glanced at Qingxing, and said complacently, "I know, I'll send the things back first and go later!"
Qing Xing stopped her again, "Second Madam, I've been waiting for you here for half an hour, and the old lady must be getting anxious. So, you'd better go now, otherwise the old lady will be angry, and I'm afraid!"
Liu immediately thought of the slap she received yesterday and instantly came to her senses. The feeling of wanting to fly to heaven just now disappeared. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you now!"
Fortunately, she hid the jeweled headpiece before returning home, otherwise, if Qingxing saw it, what would have happened?
When Liu followed Qingxing to the main courtyard, she saw Old Madam Li sitting upstairs with an angry look on her face.
