  Liu Chengcai rubbed his temples wearily, glanced at Qi Yuzhu who was still sniffling, and said lightly: "That's what happened. She didn't listen to me and caused such a big mess. If you want to blame me for not taking good care of her, I have no excuse. If she wants to marry Li Wei, I'll think of a way. If she doesn't want to marry him, I'll also find a way to cover it up. You decide what to do and tell me."

  Qī Chánglín and Madame Péi exchanged a glance, their faces gloomy and silent. Madame Péi coughed and said, "Elder sister, what do you think about this matter..."

  Madam Qi's face was as white as a ghost, and she lay on the rope bed with her eyes half-closed, waving her hand weakly: "You all handle it yourselves." Nothing was to her liking! It wasn't that she didn't want to blow up, but she simply didn't have the energy or mood. As soon as she thought about Qinghua entering the house, her chest felt a wave of suffocating pain.

  Liu Chengcai still had Liu Chuan on his mind, who was just tied up and locked in the room. He didn't have the heart to accompany them slowly, so he stood up and said: "I'll go deal with that rebel first."

  "Brother-in-law, the child is grown up, let's talk things over properly."

  Liu Chengcai neither affirmed nor denied it, and with a flick of his sleeve, he went straight into Liu Chong's room.

  Liu Chengcai calmly ordered someone to put paper, pen and ink in front of Liu Chong, and said softly: "Do you write it yourself or do I help you write?"

  Liu Chuan furrowed his brow and turned his face, his movements fierce, causing the eyebrow split by Zhang Wulang to throb with a burning pain. The pain made his heart ache in sync. He coldly gazed at Xiaya, who was beaten until her nose was blue and her face was swollen, her whole body trembling in pain, yet still stubbornly kneeling upright. His heart was filled with resentment towards Liu Chengcai.

  Liu Chengcai didn't say a word, rolled up his sleeves, dipped the brush in ink, and wrote a standard formal letter. After putting down the brush, he calmly said: "Will you sign it yourself or should I help you?"

  Liu Chang furrowed his brow, saying nothing, and secretly clenched his fists tightly.

  Liu Chengcai faintly called out to Xi Xia: "Xi Xia, call two people over to help press down the handprint, and you will have redeemed your merit."

  Xià Yī was stunned for a moment, then burst into loud wailing, crawling to Liu Cháng's feet and kowtowing desperately.

  Liu Chong just didn't move, Liu Chengcai sighed: "I am absolutely unwilling to make a fuss with you to this extent. But who made you provoke the county master? I've long told you that's not someone we can afford to provoke. Since you refuse to listen to advice, I have no choice but to take some extreme measures for the sake of this family. Xiashuah!"

  Regretting the summer, he suddenly rolled his eyes upwards and fainted neatly. He had already gone against Master's wishes and leaked the news to Gong, if he listened to Master again, tied up Gong and pressed his handprint, Gong would also hate him. It's better to die.

  Liu Chengcai saw the situation and didn't get angry, but instead said with a fake smile: "With a body like that, it's not suitable to follow Master around anymore. Take him down and throw him in the woodshed first, and sell him tomorrow. Not one of his family members will be left." He was the head of the household, and no one dared to challenge him.

  Unfortunately, Xia didn't have the chance to change his fate, and Liu Chuan also couldn't escape the fate that belonged to Liu Chengcai. The bright red cinnabar filled her fingertips, leaving a striking mark on the letter, just like when she first entered the door, after recovering from her illness for the first time and getting out of bed, she carefully painted a small peony on his forehead with rouge. The delicate peony was outlined in gold powder, set against her snow-white skin as white as jade, and her charming eyes had a hint of shyness, which was very striking and moving.

  Liu Chang's eyes suddenly felt a little hot.

  A strange and weird feeling filled his chest, making him restless and indignant to the extreme. He didn't care about her, but as a man, he couldn't tolerate this insult at all.

  Liu Chengcai didn't have time to care about her psychological feelings, and all she could think about was how to restrict the He family and how to deal with Princess Kangcheng. Liu Chuan let go of Liu Chengcai, and said considerately: "You've been tired for a whole day, let Xian Su help you wash up."

  Liu Chuan didn't say a word. He just felt that every part of his body was in pain, so painful that he didn't even want to move his fingers.

  Qī Yùzhū buried her face in Madame Pei's bosom, sobbing and saying: "He didn't touch me, it was he who told me to knock him unconscious, the clothes were put on by his servant, I didn't do anything improper."

  She recalled the scene at that time. After Liu Chang left, she walked up to Li Yi with a blush and asked him: "Mr. Li, are you feeling better? Do you want to drink some tea soup?"

  Li Wei stared at her, making her face flush and her hands tremble uncontrollably, even spilling the tea. She had liked him since that time when the horse dance performance started, she noticed him, and by the time he won big at the game of Go with Liu Quan, she was amazed by his exceptional skill, and after he punched Liu Quan, she couldn't forget about him. She tried every way to follow him, trying to appear in places where he might show up, but it seemed like he had never paid attention to her like this before.

  Her palms were covered in cold sweat, and she wanted to ask him what he was looking at several times, but her throat felt tight and she couldn't say anything. She could only stiffly turn her face aside, letting him look his fill. The time was very long, yet also very short, just when she thought she would suffocate, he finally spoke up: "You are the second daughter of the Qi family, right?"

  She turned around in surprise, and it turned out he knew who she was.

  His face was flushed, his hands clenched tightly on the cuffs, his eyes were slightly unfocused, but a faint warm smile hung on his lips. Her gaze swept across Luolu's chest, and her face turned bright red again.

  He spoke in a hoarse voice, with a gentle pleading tone she had never heard before: "Can I ask you to knock me out?"

  She was shocked and perplexed. She knew that something was wrong with him, and she also knew what would happen if she followed her brother's instructions. But he asked her to knock him unconscious, what did that mean? He was afraid of what was going to happen next, he didn't want it.

  He was very disappointed: "You don't want to, that's fine. I thought you were a good person. Although I don't agree with your brother and his family's behavior, but you seem really different from them..."

  Although she was talking about someone else, at that moment her heart was truly delighted. He used the simplest language to tactfully express to her that he liked generous and kind-hearted girls, and looked down on those with ulterior motives, such as the Qinghua County Princess.

  She finally nodded in agreement to knock him out with a porcelain pillow, her hands were trembling, but she felt that she was doing something very right. She knew that her parents intended to marry her off to him, and at this moment he needed her help, as long as she helped him, she could be close to him openly and honestly in the future, rather than becoming a woman with ulterior motives that he despised. It would happen sooner or later, why rush?

  Looking at his sleeping face, she was restless. Her previous choice was right, but her heart wasn't at ease. Although her brother-in-law didn't say it explicitly, she knew he and her sister probably had some kind of feelings for each other. But her brother-in-law clearly told her that he would absolutely not divorce her sister... She covered her face in embarrassment.

  But her uncle burst in with his men, and when he saw it was her inside, the ferocious and terrifying expression on his face was also something she had never seen before in her life. To this day, she still doesn't know if what she did was right or wrong.

  These two men of the Liu family are not good, one calculating his own cousin, and the other calculating his own family to pull relationships for him. Not a single person has thought about whether Yu Zhu can have a good life in the future. Mrs. Pei was so angry that she wanted to die, comforting her daughter and saying firmly: "You did the right thing. Liking him, wanting to marry him, is nothing wrong, but if you follow your cousin's idea, it would be self-deprecation. Even if you married him in the future, you would still lose a layer of respect from him, what's the point? Don't worry, I and your father have our own plan for this matter."

  Qī Yùzhū felt relieved with her mother's support, and with a surge of determination, she said tearfully: "What should we do then?"

  Mrs. Pei smiled and said, "This marriage must be arranged somehow, but not by using their family's method, nor can we take advantage of their power." Does he think everyone else is foolish, while only the Liu family is clever? She wouldn't grant him that wish!

  At dawn, Liu Chengcai finally found out who had insulted him, injured his family slave, and taken away Li Yi last night. It was one of the eight sons of Li Mansheng, the elder sister of Li Yuan who married a small soldier. The small soldier had made many military achievements over the years and had been promoted to Zheng Si Zhong Duiwei. All eight sons were in the army and were some rough people who loved to cause trouble.

  This news made Liu Chengcai, who had just learned that the Qi family was unwilling to listen to his orders and had forcibly climbed up Li Wei, feel much better in his heart. He couldn't help but sneer coldly, thinking "You think you're something just because you have a few more children? Ha! You've bullied me enough!" He called the housekeeper in and instructed him to go to the government office to ask for leave, saying that he had been beaten by thugs the night before and was still shaken, unable to get out of bed.

  And not to mention the Liu and Qi families, who made a racket for a whole night, the He family also didn't calm down until the second half of the night. Peony felt like all her bones were scattered, she was in so much pain that she couldn't sleep, it wasn't until dawn that she dozed off for a bit, and just as she had fallen asleep, Lin mama pulled her up. Yuhe, Kuaner, Shuer and four others busied about, getting Peony ready, accompanied by Xue Shi, He Zhongzhong, and Dalang, they rushed to the residence of Princess Kangcheng.

  The revelry lasted till dawn, and most people had just gone to bed. Except for the slaves of wealthy families cleaning up the stalls, there were few pedestrians on the street. Dalang joked, "I don't know if anyone in Princess Chang's mansion is awake yet, or else we'll go there and no one will answer the door."

  Xue snorted and said with a smile: "Too much talk! What kind of status does someone have, where can they speak without being counted? One rule has long been waiting for people."

  Dalong smiled, and everyone else quickened their pace.

  They arrived at the Da Lang Gong Zhu Fu in An Xing Fang, and Da Lang went forward to knock on the door. As he slipped some money into the sleeve of the gatekeeper's robe, he smiled and stated his business. The gatekeeper scanned the group with a glance, then said briskly, "Wait." It was clear that he had already received instructions.
