Chapter 668: Chapter 668: That is Simply Unacceptable

How had she failed to foresee such serious consequences at the time?

Now it’s too late for regrets, they just had to wait for those people to show up. What could they possibly do?

"Yushui, what do you think we should do?"

"I thought something serious had happened."

Upon hearing her words, Liu Yushui realized it was simply her mother’s own guilt rearing its head. She shot Liu Rumei a disdainful glance.

"Mother, you’re over-thinking it, let people suspect if they want to. We don’t have any sweet potatoes at home and no one saw you digging them up. If you don’t admit it, who else can point a finger at you?"

"This..."

Liu Rumei was taken aback by her response, upon reflection, it did seem feasible.

"But that little wretch ran away. If she..."

Remembering how Feng Lvzhi had fled, she was still fearful. What if Feng went to someone else’s house and exposed that she had stolen the sweet potatoes? What then?

"She ate some too. Even if she had a hundred times the courage, she wouldn’t dare go blabbing her mouth." Liu Yushui chuckled lightly.

"Besides, that infuriating girl finally managed to escape from our house. Why would she risk her life to have anything to do with us again? She wouldn’t dare."

If that cursed girl dared to cause any trouble for them, so much the better. They could take her down directly and save themselves the trouble when Zhou Liang came looking for them again.

"By the way, mother, what did you say to Zhou Liang, and what did he say?" She asked.

"Zhou Liang!"

Upon mentioning Zhou Liang, Liu Rumei’s face turned dark. She was seething with anger.

"That son of a bitch is no good, let me tell you, after you marry into his family, make sure to keep a tight hold on the money. Understood?"

She gave Liu Yushui a word of advice.

It was only now that she realized how unreliable husbands and children could be. Only silver was trustworthy, she deeply regretted buying a servant girl, willingly wasting her silver coins.

If she hadn’t bought Feng Lvzhi, she would still have some money left and could afford to eat well.

Unlike now, she could only rely on that unreliable bastard Zhou Liang.

"What are you talking about, did he provoke you?" Liu Yushui asked.

She was fully aware of maintaining control over all the money. Did her mother need to remind her about that?

"Look at what he has done to me. I’m his mother-in-law, the impudent brat even dared to lay his hands on me!" Liu Rumei pointed at the mud on her face and clothes, speaking to Liu Yushui.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yushui snorted.

"Mother, we’re no longer part of the Liu Family. If I wasn’t pregnant, would Zhou Liang care about us? You should be thanking your lucky stars that he even deigns to see us."

Hearing that her mother had been beaten brought some balance to her heart, at least Zhou Liang didn’t dare lay a hand on her and spoke only words of persuasion. Compared to her mother, Zhou Liang treated her decently.

"You..."

Liu Rumei was left speechless by her words.

"You ungrateful girl, your mother has wasted so much affection on you."

Upon being hit by her own son-in-law, her daughter was not only not supportive but took Zhou Liang’s side.

It seemed that indeed only money was reliable; all other people were unreliable. In the future, she could only count on herself.
