"Zhao Yumei, come over here and die."
When Liu Guodong heard how sad the girl was crying, the wound on his head hurt even more. He recalled that the wound was caused by Li Shusheng, that animal, and that he was Zhao Yumei's son.
After thinking about it, he realized that Zhao Yumei had chased his children away and left him alone. If they didn't want to bully him, then they would bully him.
Zhao Yumei was angry, but she kept scolding him. She glared at Liu Shufang and stomped on the ground. Then, she ran back to the East Room unwillingly.
It was still too early to deal with this girl, so he should first pacify Liu Guodong. Otherwise, in his anger, he would go to the Public Security Bureau and sue her son.
"Sister-in-law, close the door."
Seeing her running away, Liu Shufang wiped the tears off her face, pointed at the door and whispered to Harland.
"It scared me to death."
Hai Lan finally reacted. She had been scared silly just now. She had been standing stiffly at the door ever since Zhao Yumei entered the room. She had even forgotten where to put her hands and feet.
She didn't know why her sister-in-law was so angry, but she could see her sister-in-law's smile, so she couldn't hear what she was saying clearly.
"Don't be afraid. The more you're afraid of someone like that, the more you'll bully her. Sister-in-law, give me the basin!" I'll wash it myself. "
Liu Shufang let out a light breath. It was a risky move. As long as Zhao Yumei lifted her cover, nothing could be hidden from her.
"No problem, I'll help you wipe it faster."
Harland didn't mind at all as he continued to wipe the remaining skin for his sister-in-law. In less than half an hour, he had wiped it all clean. Liu Shufang's skin had been rubbed red, and the basin of water was like ink.
"Throw it out the window. Don't go out the door."
With all her scales gone, Liu Shufang felt more relaxed than she had ever felt before. Her mood also became more cheerful. She opened the window and splashed the smelly dirty water into the distance.
She herself was baffled. When did she have such great strength?
"Shufang, what's wrong with you?"
Harland heaved a sigh of relief as he remembered to ask the reason.
"I don't know either. Maybe Li Shu got sick or something. I caught it after a night's sleep on his brick bed. Luckily, your brother didn't see it, otherwise he would have despised me."
Liu Shufang suspected him in her heart, but she still put the blame on Li Shusheng. Since he wasn't here, she wouldn't question him even if he returned.
That was the end of the matter. The only thing she was worried about now was whether these scales would still appear. If she were to go home and sleep all night, and wake up tomorrow, wouldn't Hai Tao think of her as a monster?
"No, my brother isn't that person."
She also suspected that Li Shu had some sort of illness. She would be more careful in the future and stay away from him. If that really happened, she would not be able to meet him.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Liu Shufang held her sister-in-law's hand tightly. She really liked this kind woman. She would definitely find a chance to repay her kindness in the future.
"What are you saying!?" Family, quickly go and have a look! "Father and stepmother had a huge argument."
Harlan wouldn't let her say thank you, but the family felt awkward.
"Don't worry about it. Let Father chase that woman away. You and Big Bro will have a better life in the future."
Liu Shufang held her sister-in-law's hand, refusing to let her go. In the worst case scenario, Zhao Yumei might even blame it on her, making it difficult for her to please her.
"The outsiders will laugh at me. As soon as I enter the door, my mother-in-law is chased away. What will the outsiders say about me?"
Hai Lan looked at Shufang with a bitter face. She was the daughter of her husband, and once she left, she would still have to live in this home and in this village, drowning in saliva.
"Alright! I'll go with you, so talk less. "
Liu Shufang thought for a while and felt uneasy. If they really started arguing, her stepmother might vent her anger on Harland. She would be more obedient when she went to Zhao Yumei.
"Wuu, I've been married to you for more than ten years, and I've served you well. Why did you chase me away for a girl? "Alright, I'll go. Let's see who will serve you."
Zhao Yumei couldn't stand being scolded. Liu Guodong had always doted on her, so when did he ever scold her like this?
She deliberately tried to curry favor for her son, but being a wife that was bullied in the future was not something that her character could handle.
When Liu Guodong saw her packing her bags, his heart felt empty, and his anger was quenched.
He wanted to tell her not to leave, but if he coaxed her to stay, that would be too embarrassing. In the future, would she still listen to him?
From last night to today, she had purposely tried to curry favor with him. She was so gentle that he felt like he was the Emperor.
For a time, he was at a loss for words. Zhao Yumei was packing her bags, but she didn't hear his curses. She took a peek and saw the regret in his eyes. She was secretly happy.
Just say that he didn't have those skills, how could he bear for her to leave?
He tidied up his clothes with a straight face, but his movements were much slower than before.
"Father, it's time to eat."
When Liu Jianguo heard the ruckus he had just had, he became quiet at this moment. Feeling worried, he found an excuse to eat and went inside the house to take a look.
"Eat."
Liu Guodong didn't know if he was talking to his son or to Zhao Yumei. He wanted to sit up and secretly glance at Zhao Yumei.
Seeing how the other party was looking at her without even looking at her, she pouted. There were still tears on her face, and her heart softened. She couldn't go around coaxing him even in front of her son. She was in a dilemma.
"Oh, Zhao Yumei, which scene did you put on again?" Is there a letter from your son? "Where is he? I was just about to bring him to justice in the county!"
The curtain was lifted, and Liu Shufang walked in with a mocking smile on her face, her words threatening.
Zhao Yumei was reminded by Liu Shufang and suddenly remembered her son. She was not watching at home, but Old Liu was listening to his daughter and sending her to jail?
"No news, my son has already been forced away by you, what else do you want?" Old Liu, look at your daughter. She's going to force us to death.
She hurried over and pushed Liu Guodong, leaned her face against his shoulder, and began to cry.
"Shufang, enough, we're family. Didn't I say last night that you're not allowed to bring up this matter again?"
Liu Guodong happened to find his way to the stairs as he scolded his daughter, patting her on the back with his big hands to coax her.
Liu Shufang smiled coldly. Today, she had let this woman go just for her sister-in-law's words.
As soon as they finished breakfast, Ning Haitao came to pick up their daughter-in-law. He first went to see his father-in-law, but he wasn't empty-handed. He bought two bottles of haw. This was a big gift, Zhao Yumei's face looked better.
However, because of Liu Shufang, she didn't say that she would keep Ning Haitao at home for dinner and didn't have any intention of getting close to him. Since Liu Guodong didn't dare to provoke her anymore, he could only pretend to be ignorant.
Liu Shufang did not want to stay in this house any longer, so after bidding farewell to her father, she left a few more words with her sister-in-law and elder brother before leaving, looking depressed and preoccupied.
