Chapter 25: Miss Liu, Please

Translator:Henyee TranslationsEditor:Henyee Translations

Liu Yinniang leaned against Madam Bai. Mother, what are you talking about?

Madam Bai smiled. Nothing.

Liu Yinniang smiled. At the thought that she could learn cooking from Liu Sanniang, she was extremely happy.

At night.

When Madam Wei mentioned the matter to Mr. Liu, he did not object. Instead, he completely agreed with her. Reject it. I don't like that scholar either.

When Mr. Liu thought of Liu Shun, he did not have a good impression of him.

It was obvious that he wanted to side with Liu Cheng, but he acted like he was a fair person.

Mr. Liu liked honest, young people, but Liu Shun didn't seem to be a good person.

Madam Wei heaved a sigh of relief. I was worried that you wouldn't agree.

Mr. Liu smiled. Sanniang's marriage is up to you. She's the apple of your eye. I believe in your choice.

Madam Wei snorted coldly. What are you talking about? You make it sound like the two sons are not cherished by me.

Mr. Liu smiled and hugged Madam Wei. I was really worried about you.

After Madam Wei married him, she gave birth to three children and had always taken good care of the family.

When the incident happened, Mr. Liu panicked, not knowing what to do if Madam Wei was gone.

Fortunately, everything was fine.

Madam Wei did not say anything and quietly leaned on Mr. Liu. Marrying this person was the right thing for her to do.

After the incident, the days returned to normal.

It was said that when Zhang Guizhi was beheaded, many rotten vegetables and eggs were thrown on her. Liu Cheng and Liu Cheng's father did not go to see her.

While people were cursing, they also felt pity for Zhang Guizhi. However, no one in the Liu family went and they wanted nothing to do with it.

It was not like they had nothing to do.

Mr. Liu, Liu Dalang, and Liu Erlang were busy. Madam Wei rested for a few days before going back to the restaurant to work as usual.

Liu Sanniang finished embroidering the shoe and started working on another one.

Liu Sangniang's good friends were here to see her.

Liu Zhi'er, Liu Hui, and Liu Ju were all present.

They looked at Liu Sanniang's embroidery and asked. Sanniang, why does your embroidery look so good? We learned it together, but you are much more skillful than us.

Liu Zhi'er loved the lotus flower embroidered by Liu Sanniang. The embroidery was actually flawless and very beautiful. If one did not look close enough, they would feel that it was a real flower.

If she used a better thread, it would be even prettier.

Liu Hui also looked at it in admiration. Sanniang, you're so good-looking and good at cooking. Even your embroidery is so good now. Every boy will fall in love with you.

Liu Ju was also envious. Her family background was not good, and her biological mother died early. Her stepmother made her do a lot of work every day, and she had no time to learn any skill. Looking at Liu Sanniang's embroidery, she was envious.

If only she had that much time.

Liu Sanniang smiled. It's easy. I can teach you.

Liu Sanniang was a little embarrassed. After all, she had lived to 75 years old and was unmarried in her previous life. After her parents passed away, she didn't like to go out anymore. At home, other than embroidering, she didn't have any other hobbies.

1

After decades of training, she was naturally very good at it. Embroidery was what she did for a living.

Since Liu Sanniang was willing to teach, they definitely wouldn't refuse.

In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon.

They all bid goodbye to Liu Sanniang.

After sending the ladies off, Liu Sanniang thought for a while and left home with some money.

After making a pair of shoes for her mother, she thought she would make one for her father and two brothers as well.

When she passed by the smithy, Liu Sanniang frowned as she recalled Chu Yan.

Her family had thanked everyone who helped them tide over this crisis, but they forgot the one who helped the most.

Liu Sanniang did not even tell her parents about Chu Yan's help. When she thought of it, she felt her face heat up.

But she was also afraid of Chu Yan.

Now that she still owed him a favor, Liu Sanniang felt a headache coming on. If she did not return the favor, she would feel uncomfortable, but how was she supposed to return it?

If she didn't treat him to a meal, would Chu Yan think that she was insincere?

Liu Sanniang felt her head hurting at the thought.

After buying the materials, Liu Sanniang still did not know what to do.

It was almost dark when Liu Sanniang started to cook.

In the end, she comforted herself that Chu Yan would be the General of Dingbei in the future. He would not remember such a small matter. Anyway, they would have nothing to do with each other in the future.

Why not just forget it?

Liu Sanniang heaved a sigh of relief and focused upon preparing dinner.

When Madam Wei returned, Liu Sanniang was almost done with the preparation.

Mr. Liu, Liu Dalang, and Liu Erlang also came back and the family sat together for dinner.

Knock, knock, knock.

There was a knock on the door. Liu Erlang stood up. Who is it?

Liu Erlang went to open the door and looked at the stranger outside. Sir, who are you looking for? Did you come to the wrong place?

Liu Erlang knew everyone in the neighborhood. Without thinking, he felt that this stranger must have the wrong address.

Officer Zhou was not wearing a uniform but plain clothes. He was carrying two bottles of good wine and two pieces of high-quality materials. When he saw Liu Erlang, he immediately grinned. This must be Liu Yuanxun's house.

Officer Zhou remembered very clearly that Liu Sanniang said that her family lived in Willow Street and her father's name was Liu Yuanxun.

Liu Erlang touched his head. Why are you looking for my father?

Liu Yuanxun was his father's name.

This person brought gifts and spoke politely. Liu Erlang didn't think he was a bad guy and moved aside. Come in.

Officer Zhou smiled gratefully and entered. He put down the gifts and looked at Liu Sanniang.

When Liu Sanniang saw Officer Zhou, she became worried.

Without asking, she knew why Officer Zhou was here. However, Liu Sanniang didn't want to help him. She didn't want to be a psychic. At that time, she used her psychic ability simply because she wanted to save her mother.

If it wasn't for the fact that Liu Cheng had set up her family, she wouldn't have revealed her ability at all.

Liu Sanniang looked away.

Mr. Liu was confused. Who are you? Do I know you?

Madam Wei was also confused. Was he here to ask for her daughter's hand in marriage? Madam Wei looked at Servant Zhou and said, If you want to propose marriage, don't you think you need to inform us before coming?

Officer Zhou smiled. Brother Liu, I'm not here to propose marriage. I have something to ask.

Officer Zhou grabbed Mr. Liu's hand and knelt down. I have something to ask of Miss Liu.

Mr. Liu quickly stood up. You, let's sit down and talk. Why are you kneeling?

Liu Dalang and Liu Erlang were dumbfounded. What was going on?

Officer Zhou looked at Liu Sanniang and said, Miss Liu, please help me.

At the thought that he was starting to forget his eldest daughter, Officer Zhou felt terribly sad and he broke down in tears. Though he remarried and had children, the loss of his eldest daughter remained a knot in his heart.
