Chapter 547: Plans

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ying Tao said faintly, “What plans do I have? My child and man are gone. I’ve also seen through my maiden family. A married daughter is like water that has been splashed out. We’re like that basin of water that has been splashed out. What’s the point of thinking about it? I don’t have any other thoughts. I just want to wait to find those evil thieves and avenge my child!”

San Qiao looked at Ah Lian and then at her sisters. “After those evil thieves are found, I want to bring a child back and leave a root for my family. Otherwise, if I die, my ancestors will have no descendants.”

“Pfft!” Yang Liu spat hatefully. “I don’t want to continue the incense for those two old things. From the moment I was sold to his house, I was used as an animal by those two old things. It wasn’t until my darn husband became sensible that I had a few good days. I want to get my darn husband out of his house and set up my own business.”

Everyone thought about how Yang Liu’s in-laws had treated her. It was not strange for her to have such thoughts about them.

Yingtao nodded in agreement. “That’s what we should do. Now that we’re the only women left in Liang Village, we’re in charge. We can do whatever we want!”

Li Yu had just walked over when she heard Yang Liu and Ying Tao’s words. She didn’t expect to hear such comments here. She looked at the two of them curiously.

When Ah Lian saw this, she explained to Li Yu, “Madam, Yang Liu was a child bride bought by the Liu family in the village. When she was sold to the Liu family, she was only four or five years old. The two in-laws of the Liu family ordered her around and often beat and scolded her while not giving her food and drink. Fortunately, her man had always protected her.

The two of them had only consummated their marriage two years ago and had even given birth to a son. Just as they were living a good life, they were harmed by those damnable thieves. Yang Liu was angry with her parents-in-law, so she said those words. Yingt Tao was the only daughter. Her man had married into her family. She was used to being in charge.”

Li Yu looked at these women who had experienced hardships that ordinary people had never experienced. She looked at them in admiration. “I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the thoughts of Yang Liu and Ying Tao. I admire you very much and think that you’re very good, strong, and amazing. After the disaster, you bravely faced the aftermath. We women can also rely on our own efforts to live a good life. I believe you can do it.”

Ah Lian, Yang Liu, and Ying Tao, as well as the silent women, looked at Li Yu.

Ah Lian walked up to Li Yu excitedly and stared at her. “Madam, our family and children were killed by those evil thieves. The evil thieves left us behind to ruin us. We lived like livestock in the world and didn’t die. We’re really brave and strong. Aren’t we shameless and afraid of death?”

“You didn’t do anything wrong. Why should you go and die? The ones who deserve to die are those evil thieves who committed such a monstrous crime.” Li Yu looked at them with admiration. “Sisters, you’ve experienced unimaginable suffering and torture. To you, living is worse than death.” Li Yu placed her hand on her chest. “Sisters, I really admire you. This is my heartfelt words.”

Tears streamed down Ah Lian’s face. She squatted on the ground and cried loudly. The other women also cried. The women’s heart-wrenching cries sounded in the kitchen.

“Cry! Cry! Let the bitterness in your heart and the hatred in your heart turn into tears that flowed out. After experiencing hardship, there will always be a time when the worst has passed.”

Li Yu rubbed her face and turned to walk out. She saw Ji Xiang and Ruyi standing at the door with red eyes. “Go find a place to sleep for a while and let them cry. ”

Ji Xiang and Ruyi nodded and found a place to sleep. Li Yu took a kiln and walked towards the vegetable garden at the back of the house.

After Ah Lian and the others cried loudly, they felt their heavy hearts relax a little. After everyone vented, they gradually stopped crying. They looked up and saw Li Yu carrying a full basket of cabbage into the kitchen. They wiped the tears off their faces in embarrassment.

Yang Liu went forward and took the basket from Li Yu. “Madam Li, let us do it. You’ve been tired for the night. Go and rest.”

“Okay, I see eggs in the rice jar. Cook them and eat them. Don’t be reluctant.” “Got it.” Ah Lian pulled Li Yu out. “Go and rest.”

Li Yu came out of the house and wrote a letter. She told Zhou Jia about the situation here and handed it to Ruyi to bring back to Zhou Jia.

The women braised a pot of white rice, heated up the leftovers, stir-fried cabbage, fried eggs, and cooked vegetable leaf egg soup. Ah Lian came over to invite Li Yu, Ruyi, and Ji Xiang to eat. Everyone ate together and it was already dawn.

Li Yu looked at Ruyi and Ji Xiang. “Ji Xiang will bring Old Lin to the north city to deliver the news. Then, he will return to the city to report to Master. Ji Xiang will set off after Ruyi leaves for two hours.”

“Yes, Madam.” After the two of them agreed, Ruyi went to the livestock shed and set off with the horses.

Li Yu and Ji Xiang returned to the cellar. Ji Xiang glanced at Old Lin and untied him from the pillar. Old Lin looked at Li Yu in horror. “Madam, I’m telling the truth. Please spare my life.”

Li Yu glanced at him. “As long as you do what I tell you obediently, I’ll consider sparing you.”

Old Lin promised solemnly, “I’ll definitely be honest.”

“Alright, you and Manager Xiang go to the north city to send a letter to those people.”

Ji Xiang took Old Lin out of the cellar and handed him a pen and paper. The two of them saw that he had written on it: The goods are in hand.

After Old Lin finished writing, he smiled at Ji Xiang ingratiatingly. “Manager

Xiang, please roll the note into a thin strip.”

Ji Xiang nodded. After picking up the note and rolling it up, he handed it to Old

Lin. “Let’s go!”

Old Lin nodded and followed Ji Xiang to the livestock shed to drive the carriage away.

Li Yu saw them drive away. She stood on the field and looked at Liang Village, which was immersed in the mist. The distant fields were covered in a layer of mist. The clouds on the mountain were lingering like a paradise, and there was a faint fragrance in the air.

Ah Lian walked over and stood beside Li Yu. There was a smile on her sallow face as she looked at Li Yu in admiration. “Madam, the sisters asked me to thank you for helping us kill those evil thieves.”

Li Yu looked at her and smiled. “You’re welcome. I’m doing this for myself.”

Ah Lian pointed at the thatched houses where livestock were fed. “Are we still feeding those livestock?”

Li Yu nodded and said to Ah Lian, “You should feed those livestock well. I’ll tell the government office that those livestock are all yours. Although these things can’t make up for your pain, they can make your lives better.”

Ah Lian felt that Li Yu was really thinking for them. She bowed gratefully to Li Yu and said to her, “Madam, thank you. The sisters said that they have survived the most difficult times. They want to adopt a few children and leave a root. They can’t let their ancestors’ lineage end.”

Li Yu nodded. “Alright, after you settle down, do as you think and live well..”
