Chapter 88 I'm going to beat that mouth of hers to a pulp when I get back.
Mr. Liu was helped into the car by his wife and daughter: "The surgery is over, but I still need to stay at home for another six months before we can see how I feel."

Old Quan kept looking at Liu's father's legs, and even reached out to touch them: "Can you walk?"

Mr. Liu smiled and shook his head: "Not yet, it will have to wait a while."

Old Quan watched them all get into the car and said, "Hold on tight, we're leaving now."

He sat on the front of the cart, flicked the whip, and the oxcart slowly moved forward.

Father Liu chatted with Old Quan, who was sitting on the cart shaft: "Uncle Quan, has anything happened in the village lately?"

Actually, he wanted to find out about the Liu family.

When asked a question, he was momentarily at a loss for words.

The three of them aren't stupid; judging from Lao Quan's reaction, they knew something was definitely wrong.

Liu's mother asked somewhat impatiently, "Uncle Quan, is there anything you can't say?"

Old Quan sighed, thinking that even if he didn't say anything, they would find out when he returned to the village, so he might as well give them a heads-up in advance: "Well, something did happen, but you have to stay calm when I tell you."

The family of three were completely baffled by these words, and felt a sense of unease.

Mr. Liu rubbed his face: "Uncle Quan, tell me, I'm already like this, what could be more difficult than this?"

He thought it was about him, but to his surprise, Old Quan said, "Your sister-in-law, that wicked thing, I don't know what's wrong with her, she actually said that your second daughter doesn't come home at night. You all know how people in the village are, they believe whatever they hear, and the rumors are getting more and more outrageous."

Liu's mother immediately burst into tears: "She won't rest until she ruins my daughter, will she? I'll beat her mouth to a pulp when I get back."

Mr. Liu's face darkened with anger.

Chu Xue, however, had an expression of complete comprehension; she hadn't revealed it before because she was waiting for this day.

After all, what she wanted was never to separate the family; she wanted to sever ties with them. Even if they separated, the Liu family elders wouldn't let them off easily and would probably still have to enslave them from time to time. But if the Liu family was in the wrong first and the ties were severed, they shouldn't even think about using kinship or gratitude to reason with them in the future.

Not to mention, what the Liu couple did to his father in secret might have been a conspiracy.

Therefore, she was determined to plan ahead step by step and would never let the Liu family benefit from her father's fame. Liu Jiandong, the original male lead, could forget about ever getting any credit.

When the oxcart entered the village, the indispensable intelligence personnel of every village sat under the old locust tree at the village entrance.

When they saw who was on the oxcart, they all swarmed around: "Shanliang's back! How's your leg?"

"Shanliang family, has your husband's leg been healed?"

Has your leg healed yet?

The oxcart was stopped immediately, and Old Quan had to get off and go to the front to hold the ox's head, fearing that these people would frighten the ox and cause another problem.

Mother Liu quickly spoke up, "Dear aunts, grandmas, grandpas, and sisters-in-law, my husband just had surgery on his leg and needs to come back and recuperate for six months. Whether he can recover depends entirely on how well he recovers during these six months."

"So you can't do anything for the next six months?"

"Yes, I can't do heavy work."

Before the first snow fell in the village, I told them to just tell the truth.

The couple didn't know what their daughter was planning, but they knew she must have her own agenda.

"Oh dear, we just separated the family, and now we're relying on just one woman from the Liang family to work. How are we going to make a living?"

Seeing that the snowfall was almost over, Chu Xue cleared her throat and said loudly, "Dear grandpas, grandmas, aunties, and uncles, I would like to thank you all for your concern for my father. However, he has been traveling all the way and needs to go back to rest. Please make way for him, and we can talk again later, okay?"
