Song hurriedly ran over, finding no one at Liu Qingxi's home. She quickly went to the back of the house and happened to see a girl washing clothes. Grabbing her hand, she said, "Qingxi, hurry up! I saw that person leave.
By the way, I saw her heading towards Liu Family's New Residence, so I quietly followed and took a look. Guess who I saw walking with her?"
Song seemed to have discovered something unbelievable, and this revelation left her in disbelief. What was going on? This was too much.
Recalling who Liu Qingxi had asked her to keep an eye on and connecting it with what had just happened, there was nothing left to misunderstand.
Yet deep down, she still felt a chill: "Qingxi, it can't be what I'm thinking, right?"
Liu Qingxi silently nodded: "Yes." Indeed, she had seen it more than once; she just didn’t expect it to come in handy. If the other party wouldn’t give her a way out, then she would find something for them to do.
"And I think this matter is closely related to my so-called Aunt. Although I don’t know why she is pressing me step by step as if we have deep-seated grudges."
Song understood now; no wonder! Thinking of that man, Wang would have her hands full.
"So what do we do now?" The thought of what needed to be done made Song's blood boil.
"Aunt, here’s the thing, you help me go..."
Then the two women went their separate ways—one heading south and the other north.
Moments later, Liu Qingxi appeared at Yang Family Courtyard: "Yang Yichen, let Anan help me with something."
Anan admired this future mistress from the bottom of her heart and naturally felt obliged to assist her. After careful instructions, Anan used lightness skill and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Yang Yichen raised an eyebrow in confusion; his handsome face showed a hint of curiosity mixed with trust in Liu Qingxi: "What’s up? Is everything arranged? You don’t need my help?"
"No need. I can’t rely on you for everything; I must face these difficulties myself. I can handle it; you can just watch from the sidelines." Liu Qingxi could sense that the youth was not as simple as he appeared, and he wasn’t as carefree as he seemed either. Many times, she could clearly see his dark circles.
Her heart ached for him just as his heart ached for her.
At that moment, Wen Family came out from inside the house, anxiously circling around Liu Qingxi until they realized there was no problem and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness nothing happened. I came to see you, but Yichan wouldn’t let me—afraid of disturbing you. How are things now?"
The woman's voice trembled slightly; the suppressed tension made her body tense up as she anxiously looked at Liu Qingxi.
"Aunt, don't worry, everything is fine. How about we go watch the excitement together later?"
This time, the plan is to resolve the Wang family's big trouble once and for all. It's quite annoying when they keep popping up like a fly.
The Wen family was astonished. How could the girl solve it so quickly? She couldn't figure out how to prove her innocence and suppress the rumors.
After all, people would probably think that nothing happens without reason. Getting rid of this matter is indeed a difficult task.
"Let's go, it's probably about time."
The Wen family followed Liu Qingxi and Yang Yichen out.
Meanwhile, on the eastern side of Ten Li Pu, near a certain grove by the mountains, the bare tree trunks in winter let through beams of sunlight, bright yet slightly warm. Between the forest and the mountains lies an open space, sparsely populated.
The straw stacks organized after the autumn harvest were neatly piled in the open space. Storing them here takes up little space, and since it's close to the threshing ground, people living in the west of the village habitually place them here for convenience.
However, people tend to store a large amount of firewood before heavy snow arrives, using wheat straw and corn stalks to start fires afterward.
In one corner, a straw stack that was originally a neat rectangle had been pulled apart at some point, with a thick layer spread across the ground. What was even more surprising was that a somewhat plump man was panting as he pulled a woman dressed in a red cotton jacket. The two were tightly entangled, straw scattered everywhere as they occasionally kicked some up.
"Oh, you little enchantress! Just one day without seeing you makes my heart restless."
The woman was captivated by the man's affection, a hint of smugness flashing in her eyes as if she could control him this way and trample that other woman underfoot.
"Ah!" The woman exclaimed, "Take it easy." The smile at the corner of her lips was filled with genuine delight. "What's wrong? Didn't Wang satisfy you usually?"
"Don't mention that fat pig to me; just seeing her makes me sick. She's both domineering and vicious—nowhere near as good as you." Disdain and disgust flashed in the man's eyes.
The entangled couple was none other than Liu Eldest and Li (Zhang Gaoliang's wife).
They had been together for quite some time now; this was their secret meeting place. In summer, they would meet in the nearby woods; in winter, they built a simple nest among the straw stacks.
They came here every few days without being discovered, which made Li very proud.
"Wang, don't you look down on me? Isn't it just that your daughter married a rich man? What's so great about that? Your man is still bowing down to me."
This was Li's inner monologue and also an important reason why she was interested in Liu Eldest.
It seemed that by throwing this back at Wang, she could regain all her lost face. As for Zhang Gaoliang? Aside from that one time she gave him a good beating, she usually kept her outings hidden from him.
"Look at you, what's so vicious about Wang? Isn't she just a bit domineering?" Li pretended to be innocent on the surface, but deep down, she wished to crush Wang into dust to relieve her resentment. Their animosity stemmed merely from Wang's poor attitude towards her and a hint of disdain.
Li was a woman with a scheming mind and had long planned her revenge against Wang.
Liu Eldest was in high spirits and naturally didn't want to mention Wang. "Don't bring her up; she's incredibly vicious. That niece of mine? She makes money without sharing it with us. Wang is spreading rumors to harm her."
Liu Eldest spoke as if he were a stranger to the situation, completely detached from the fact that the one being wronged was his own brother's daughter, his own niece.
Upon hearing this, Li felt a chill in her heart. Liu Eldest was so heartless; even with deep-seated grudges, how could an elder stand by and watch a junior suffer such treatment? It was truly terrifying.
The satisfaction men found in women was not fulfilled with Wang, leading to an unusual sense of satisfaction in their masculine pride.
At that moment, a thin Hunchbacked man slowly approached, faintly hearing the conversation between the two. When he saw their faces, he jumped up in shock and angrily pointed at them, shouting, "You shameless pair! Li, you shameless person, how depraved can you be!"
The two entangled individuals suddenly pulled apart.
