Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

Liu Siyue took some spiritual spring water from her space, diluted it, and fed it to Feng Shi. She then used the spiritual spring water to wipe the wound on the back of Feng Shi's head, wiping it back and forth several times before bandaging the wound back up intact.

"Mom, please wake up soon! I miss you so much. Yao'er is waiting for Grandma to take care of her!"

After doing all this, she tucked the blanket around Feng Shi and looked at Feng Shi lying quietly. She didn't know why, but she felt an inexplicable attachment to this mother. Perhaps she could feel her mother's warmth in her. She missed her mother so much. Her mother must miss her very much. She must be very lonely by herself.

She wiped away the tears that were about to overflow from her eyes, turned around and left.

Liu Siyue spoke with a nasal tone, and Ruyu noticed that something was wrong with her tone. She stepped forward and took her hand, "Cousin, don't be sad. Mother will get better."

"Yes, I know. I'm just heartbroken. I went out for a while, and when I came back, Mother was like this. But Mother is blessed by God, and she will definitely get better soon. She hasn't even had a chance to enjoy her retirement yet!"

Ru Yu sighed inwardly. Her cousin really cared about their mother more than they did. Although life was tough when they were young, they always had their mothers' love. Her cousin, however, never received a single bit of love from her own mother. How much she longed for that maternal love! They were more fortunate than her cousin.

"Madam, your room has been prepared and hot water is ready."

"I won't stay at home anymore. My second uncle is still at the inn. Besides, if the government officials come to the inn, I'm afraid my second uncle won't be able to handle it alone if I'm not there."

"Madam, please wait a moment. Since Miss is here today, I made some extra snacks for you to take to the inn. If you and the old master are hungry, you can have them as a midnight snack."

Liu Siyue waited there. Ningxiang went in to get a food box, packed several kinds of snacks, and handed it to Qingwu, saying, "Take good care of the photo, Madam."

"Don't worry, Steward Ning, as long as I live, I will not let Madam be harmed in the slightest."

"You silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? It's so unlucky."

"I was wrong, I was wrong. I will definitely protect you, Madam, and I will never let you suffer any harm."

"Ningxiang, let's buy another gatekeeper for the house. Qingwu Qingye can't just guard the gate all the time. It would be even better if it could also fight."

"Understood, Madam."

Qingwu drove the oxcart out, and the two hurried towards the inn, as curfew was approaching.

When Liu Siyue arrived at the inn, the innkeeper quickly came to greet her, "Sir, you're back. I'll help you move the carriage to the backyard."

"Madam, please go up first. I'll come right after I park the oxcart."

Qingwu instructed the servants to make sure the cow was fed the best fodder, then patted the cow's head and left.

As soon as Liu Siyue went upstairs, Liu Dawang heard the sound and immediately opened the door to see what was going on. He had been sitting in a chair waiting, feeling uneasy if Siyue didn't come back.

"April is back, come in and have a seat."

"Second Uncle, I brought you some snacks. If you get hungry tonight, you can have a little something to eat."

"Okay, how's your mother?"

"Mother is being taken good care of, Second Uncle. Don't worry, I'll go back and rest now."

"Go on, you must be tired after a long day."

Qingwu stood at the door, and upon seeing Liu Dawang, immediately greeted him, "Greetings, sir!"

This greeting made Liu Dawang feel extremely uncomfortable. He looked at Liu Siyue and thought, "Who does he think he is, this is just too much of a burden for me."

"Second Uncle, this is Qingwu, you'll get used to it."

Liu Siyue led Qingwu back to her room. "Madam, you must be exhausted. I'll have the shop assistant bring up some hot water so you can wash up."

After Qingwu went out for a while, he and the shop assistant each brought up a bucket of hot water. Liu Siyue washed up, lay down on the bed, and exclaimed, "Oh, I'm so tired! It feels so good to lie down!"

"Madam, let me give you a massage!"

The next day, just after Liu Siyue and her companions finished breakfast, Zhang the lawyer arrived at the inn. He inquired with the innkeeper, and because Liu Siyue had given prior instructions, the innkeeper quickly went upstairs to inform him.

"Sir, someone is looking for you."

When Liu Siyue came out, she saw Zhang the lawyer standing on the first floor. She immediately came downstairs and asked, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, lawyer. Is there any news from the yamen?"

"Yes, the magistrate sent Tang, the clerk, to Liujia Village early this morning to arrest the people. He is expected to arrive around noon. It is estimated that the trial cannot be held today and will have to wait until tomorrow. If the trial is held in time today, the yamen runners will definitely come to find you. Do not go out and wait for the summons."

"Alright, thank you for making this trip, Attorney Zhang. We will definitely not go out."

Lawyer Zhang bowed and left, as he still needed to go to the yamen to wait for news.

Liujia Village.

Tang Dianshi arrived at Liujia Village with a group of yamen runners and inquired about the village chief's house from the villagers.

When the villagers saw more than 20 yamen runners, each holding a knife handle and looking fierce and menacing, they were quite frightened. The villagers who were questioned felt their legs tremble, and they could barely walk, let alone lead the way. They stammered and couldn't say a word, and some even wet their pants in embarrassment.

One of the constables spat, "You spineless coward, so useless."

He then pointed to another person and said, "You, take us to the village chief's house."

This man was none other than Tugen's elder brother, Shuigen. He let out a sound of agreement and obediently walked ahead. When the others saw the yamen runners leave, they hurried home, wishing they had two more legs.

Shuigen led the constables to the village chief's house, then went up to knock on the door. Wang Cuilan opened it and her heart skipped a beat when she saw a group of armed constables standing there. "Gentlemen, may I ask what brings you here?"

"Is this the home of Liu Maoquan, the village chief of Liujia Village?"

"Indeed, sir. Is there something you need him for?"

"Of course something's wrong, call them out."

"He's not home, so I sent my son to call him back. Gentlemen, please wait here."

"Hongsheng, go and call your father back quickly, the county government officials are here."

When Liu Hongsheng came out, he saw that these people had come in a menacing manner, and he was afraid it was no good. As he walked, he wondered what they wanted. Could it be that something had happened in the village? Had Uncle Dawang sued the villagers? The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Uncle Dawang and Siyue were not in the village; he had heard they had gone to the county town for medical treatment. They went yesterday, and today the officials from the yamen have arrived. What a coincidence!

The more he thought about it, the more alarmed he became, and he ran to Liu Dawang's house.

The village chief was watching the workers at the construction site. Although Liu Siyue told him not to come, he felt bad for Dawang's family and wanted to make amends without asking for wages.

Liu Hongsheng ran up to his father, panting, "Dad, come home with me quickly, something's happened, the yamen officials are here."

"People from the government are here! What are they doing here?"

"I don't know, they didn't say, they just said they wanted to see you."

Liu Maoquan followed his son home. Liu Hongsheng told his father his guess. The village chief felt his head was buzzing. How could Dawang do such a thing?

The father and son arrived home, panting. Upon seeing a row of bailiffs standing at the door, the village chief quickly stepped forward. "Liu Maoquan, the village chief of Liu Family Village, greets Your Excellency. May I ask what business Your Excellency has with this humble subject?"

Tang Dianshi snorted coldly, "Liu Maoquan, as the head of a village, you condone the villagers' robbery, theft, and assault. You have quite the nerve, daring to disregard the laws of the court. Your crime is doubled."

They took us to the homes of other involved individuals to arrest them.

"Sir, I didn't mean to condone them; I was just mediating in the village."

A constable kicked him in the backside. "Stop talking nonsense. Whether you've broken the law or not, the magistrate will decide. How dare you try to argue here?"

Wang Cuilan and Liu Hongsheng panicked. "Mother, what should we do now? Father can't be taken away! You have to think of something!"

"Quickly, go find the clan chief."

When the clan chief saw the mother and son rushing in in a panic, before he could even speak, Wang Cuilan and Liu Hongsheng knelt down. "Grandpa Clan Chief, my father has been arrested by the officials! Please save him! He hasn't done anything wrong!"

"Get up quickly, what happened?"
