573 Inner Hell
Li Guanfeng smiled. “It’s good that you got what you wanted.”
This was the best of both worlds.
He did not want Su Xiaowu to be burdened by Yin Yang Eyes. He just wanted her to be ordinary and live a normal life with him.
In the past, she did not see anything he couldn’t, so he did not know that Su Xiaowu still had this ability. Fortunately, Hu Yu did not have any bad intentions.
If she met someone who intended to deliberately scare her, Su Xiaowu would inevitably be frightened.
Liu Sanniang wrote down dozens of recipes. Li Guanfeng took the recipes and thanked her. “Thank you.”
After leaving the magistrate’s office, Hu Yu held Liu Sanniang’s arm and said, “Venerable, that girl definitely doesn’t know what she has lost. I really made a good bargain.”
Such a good thing actually happened to her.
Liu Sanniang smiled. “You are not her. How do you know?”
To Hu Yu, it was a good thing, but to Su Xiaowu, it was not.
Since what they wanted was different, they naturally could not understand each other.
Hu Yu nodded. Everyone had different preferences.
In any case, this was a good thing for her.
After returning from the magistrate’s office, Hu Yu was overjoyed. When she noticed that the Liu family had guests, she hid herself and said to Liu Sanniang, “Venerable, someone from the Ye family is here.”
When Liu Sanniang returned home, Madam Wei came out and held Liu Sanniang’s hand. “Granny Ye came and wanted to ask you for help. If it’s very difficult to help, be tactful. Don’t be too straightforward.”
The two families were in-laws and the Ye family had come with a request. The Liu family naturally had to do their best to help, but it was not easy to help. If they did not do well, the two families would become enemies.
Liu Sanniang nodded. “Yes, I know.”
After walking into the main hall, Old Madam Ye and Madam Zhao stood up. “Sanniang, you’re back.”
Liu Sanniang smiled. “Granny Ye.”
Old Madam Ye smiled amiably. “Sanniang, I’m here this time to ask for your help. You’re smart, so you should know what it is.”
Liu Sanniang nodded.
Madam Zhao’s eyes were a little swollen. It was obvious that she did not sleep well last night. She forced a smile and said, “Sanniang, you’re a master. Show me the way. What should I do to make the best of both worlds?”
Even though a night had passed, Madam Zhao still could not accept this change. She did not understand why her husband would betray her when she had never let him down.
Madam Zhao’s heart was bleeding. She was angry at her husband for being unfair to her and also angry at her husband for standing by that woman’s side.
She was still angry at herself for not having the courage to beat that woman up.
She was upset for the entire night and cried the whole time, but she did not know what to do. That woman was humble in every way, making Madam Zhao feel even worse. She was the victim, but her husband was good to that woman.
Madam Zhao looked at Liu Sanniang, hoping that Liu Sanniang could enlighten her so that she would not be so confused.
Old Madam Ye sighed.
Madam Wei and Mr. Liu had already left the room, giving privacy to the Ye family and Liu Sanniang.
Liu Sanniang looked at Madam Zhao. “Auntie, don’t worry.”
Madam Zhao choked. “You’re still young. You don’t understand.”
She was just an ordinary woman and did not have a magnanimous heart. In a marriage, there could only be one man and one woman.
Madam Zhao felt aggrieved and had nowhere to vent her anger. She felt that no one could understand her.
Old Madam Ye said, “Stop crying. Crying won’t solve the problem. We’re here today to think of a way to solve it. How can we solve it if you keep crying?”
Old Madam Ye frowned slightly. Crying when something happened was the most annoying.
Liu Sanniang said to Old Madam Ye, “Granny Ye, can you go out for a while?”
Old Madam Ye was stunned for a moment before standing up. “Alright, sorry to trouble you, Sanniang. Please help your auntie out.”
Old Madam Ye was smart and knew why Liu Sanniang wanted her to leave. It was all for the sake of harmony in the family, so she stood up and left.
Madam Zhao lowered her eyes and cried, but she did not say anything. Her thoughts were in a mess. Old Madam Ye treated her well, but after such a thing happened, she felt that Old Madam Ye would definitely not stand on her side because she was not her biological daughter after all.
At the end of the day, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was unstable. No matter how good they were under normal circumstances, when something happened and the relationship was challenged, it would likely to break.
After Old Madam Ye left, Madam Zhao heaved a sigh of relief.
Madam Zhao looked at Liu Sanniang. “Sanniang, I just feel bad. You don’t have to comfort me. I’ll be fine after crying for a while.”
Madam Zhao did not believe Liu Sanniang. She even felt that it was very embarrassing to say such a thing in front of a junior. Moreover, her daughter was engaged to Liu Erlang.
Liu Sanniang’s expression was calm. She was a good listener and a patient guide.
She would not be affected by Madam Zhao’s emotions. She reached out her hand and said calmly, “Auntie, give me your hand.”
Madam Zhao looked at Liu Sanniang in confusion. She was sure that Liu Sanniang was a little different. Even when Liu Sanniang saw her crying like this, she did not show any sympathy. Madam Zhao could not describe the feeling. It was as if Liu Sanniang had no emotions, but her eyes were filled with warmth.
This warmth was much needed for Madam Zhao, who was deeply hurt.
She reached out and placed her hand in Liu Sanniang’s palm who gently held it.
A slow force gradually calmed Madam Zhao’s surging emotions.
Liu Sanniang looked at Madam Zhao. She did not need to break through Madam Zhao’s defense to feel her emotions.
Liu Sanniang said slowly, “You’re in pain but you can’t express it. The betrayal and humiliation of your lover made you suffer.”
“If you accept that woman, you’ll let down yourself and your children.”
“If you don’t accept that woman, they will think of you as an intolerant woman, and they will blame you for shattering this family.”
“What you want has never changed, but with this occurrence, it’s impossible to restore the marriage anymore. You’ll be tortured repeatedly.”
...
From the moment Liu Sanniang spoke, Madam Zhao’s tears fell even more forcefully. She opened her mouth a few times but could not say anything. Every word Liu Sanniang said touched her heart.
