Chapter 337 Smash
Mrs. Zhuang choked, and she burst into tears.
"This old servant is indeed foolish. I failed to protect the lady, the young lady, and the young master. It is all my fault."
“You were indeed derelict in your duty, otherwise Yan-ge’er wouldn’t have found Ma Zi’er’s sachet. Aunt Chun said that your plot to poison was too serious, but upon careful consideration, it didn’t tarnish your reputation.” Huang Wanwan saw the Liu siblings off before seriously considering the cause of the matter.
If Yan Ge'er was poisoned by hemp seeds, then it must have been hidden by Zhuang Mama, there's no mistake.
Madam Zhuang wanted to deny it, but she lacked confidence. "This old servant really hid it very well..." She wanted to argue that an outsider had given it to Yan Ge'er to play with, but unfortunately she had no evidence.
Moreover, the maids in the courtyard didn't dare to do it at all. Perhaps Huang Yan really did rummage around and found that package, then put it in his mouth and tasted it.
Huang Wanwan had no intention of digging deeper. "Alright, there's no need to investigate who it was. You're old, and it's too much work for you to follow me and my brother around. Once this is over, things will be much easier at the estate, so you can help manage the external affairs." Huang Wanwan would no longer allow Zhuang Mama to stay with Huang Yan; the burden of guilt on her shoulders was too heavy.
She won't let Huang Yan be happy.
Otherwise, Huang Yan wouldn't have mentioned missing his mother.
Besides, since her mother has already passed away, why wasn't Ma Zi'er's sachet destroyed? Clearly, Madam Zhuang has ulterior motives and is always looking for revenge for her mother. Regardless of whether she succeeds in her revenge, her mental influence will constantly affect Huang Yan.
Huang Wanwan is not exaggerating.
From childhood, she was burdened by her father and mother's family affairs, which made her pessimistic and fatalistic, and she dared not have any hope for anything.
If it weren't for Liu Yuechu's open-mindedness, righteousness, and tolerance, she doesn't know what she would have become; perhaps she would have been in a terrible state.
Therefore, not wanting her younger brother to follow in his footsteps, she had no choice but to painfully separate from Zhuang's mother.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhuang continued to sob.
But Huang Wanwan wouldn't soften her heart again. She straightened her clothes and went to the front yard. Today, the Huang family was truly and utterly divided!
Liu Musheng wanted to stay with Huang Wanwan, but he was quickly chased away.
He also understood that it was best to avoid suspicion to prevent Huang Wanwan from being gossiped about.
He sent someone to summon the owners of the pawnshop and the casino before leaving, leaving behind a haughty message: "...Don't give me face, just pay the amount due. We're all reasonable people, whoever owes should pay, and if they can't pay, their own mother should pay. Don't involve others, everyone has a few unlucky bastards!"
One day, he will be able to use these words to insult others.
The two bosses nodded in agreement, and the process of collecting debts and dividing the assets began.
When Liu Musheng returned to the Liu family, Liu Yuechu had just put Huang Yan to sleep.
Huang Yan liked her very much. When he arrived at the Liu family, he snuggled into Liu Yuechu's arms and pointed at Liu Yuechan, shouting "Scared!"
After all, that long needle was terrifying for a child. But Liu Yuechan still went over with a smile and gave him a good stab.
Upon learning that Liu Musheng had returned, Liu Yuechu asked Huajiao to stay inside while she pushed Liu Musheng out into the courtyard and inquired about the Huang family's situation.
Liu Musheng also said directly, "...Luckily we went today, otherwise the Huang family would have torn these two siblings apart alive!"
Liu Yuechu sighed for a moment, "So Uncle Huang really hasn't been heard from since?" She was asking Yuan Cuo.
Yuan Cuo shook his head. "I really don't know."
While he was in Huaizhou, he did not contact Huang Fan. All affairs in the southwest were managed by Chen Hongwu, and all his energy was focused on mining and smelting.
Liu Yuechu couldn't help but feel disappointed. "Given the current situation, it's really hard to guarantee safety."
The State of Chu went mad and invaded the State of Qi, while the State of Yan remained watching with predatory eyes...
"No matter what happens to the Huang family, Wanwan has us, so she doesn't need to be afraid." Liu Yuechu can't help with anything else, but supporting her sister-in-law is no problem.
Hearing her words, Liu Musheng was very pleased. "I can support my wife myself." He was now truly wealthy and powerful.
The Huang family quickly reached a conclusion: Huang Youde was kicked out of the Huang family because even if Aunt Chun took out all her private savings, it wouldn't be enough to help her son pay off his debts.
The other two concubines seized the opportunity to kick Chun out of her predicament. But Chun had no way out and stubbornly refused to leave the Huang family. She could only wait for Huang Fan to return, hoping that things would turn around.
If she followed Huang Youde, she would go hungry and thirsty, and might even be sold by her son to help pay off debts. He had just dragged his own sister, who shared both parents, to pay off debts. Luckily, Liu Musheng had left a warning, otherwise her daughter would have been in serious trouble!
The protective great-uncle initially wanted to shield Huang Youde, after all, he was a boy. Unfortunately, he only wanted to protect him, not contribute any money. Sensing that things might be going badly, he quickly slunk away.
The matter would take a long time to process, and Huang Wanwan quickly sent someone to inform Liu Yuechu.
Liu Yuechu reassured her that she would take good care of Huang Yan.
After resting for two days, she sent someone to find Tuoba Yun and conveyed Wei Tianxuan and His Majesty's message to him, asking him to contact Yuwen Chan. "...You should also speak frankly to him. At this time, you can bring up whatever you want. Once this opportunity is gone, it won't be easy to make exorbitant demands again, especially if the Great Qi recovers from this crisis."
Tuoba Yun: "???" Sister, whose side are you on?
"Actually, you know best what our sect leader wants," Tuoba Yun said with a grin.
Liu Yuechu raised an eyebrow and rubbed her stomach. "We have no money. The Liu family is broke right now. I'm almost ready to sell my father's paintings!"
“Our sect leader is not short of money, but he hasn’t started a family yet.” Tuoba Yun secretly pointed to Liu Yuechu. Even he didn’t expect that Yuwen Chan would be so infatuated with Liu Yuechu that even though he had become the sect leader of a country, he had not yet chosen an empress or concubines to have children.
"Want Daqi to choose a princess to marry him? Forget it, the princesses in the palace aren't very good, and besides, he didn't even fancy one." Liu Yuechu was preoccupied with making deals, and besides, she was already pregnant, so it was impossible for her to even think about herself.
"Ahem, our sect leader said that we can treat your child as our own." Tuoba Yun had no choice but to be direct.
In fact, the Meng Kingdom received the news when the Chu Kingdom attacked the Qi Kingdom. At that time, Yuwen Chan even sent them a message, asking them to protect the Liu family as the Meng Kingdom if the Qi Kingdom was really divided.
Protecting the Liu family is protecting Liu Yuechu, isn't it?
Tuoba Yun also understood the principle of loving someone because of them.
Liu Yuechu was dumbfounded. "Tell him to give up on that idea immediately. A two-meter-tall, burly man marrying a weakling like me? He could slap me so hard he'd crush my lungs. I'd never be with him in my next life!"
After saying this, she ordered her men to drive Tuoba Yun away.
Yuan Cuo is still alive and well, and they actually came to his house to undermine him!
Tuoba Yun left in a dejected manner, but he quickly relayed the news to Yuwen Chan.
