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

"Madam, you are overthinking it. If a servant does something wrong, it only shows that the master is not disciplining him properly and is not good at judging people."

It's not fair to say that the family owner is necessarily bad. The larger the family, the more people there are, and it's inevitable that some will slip through the net.

Even in the best rice paddies, there will be a few bad seedlings. The magistrate comforted his wife.

Wang Yalan said with a smile, "I just feel a little guilty. You see, Zhier and I have been together for so long. We promised to repay you handsomely, but we haven't done anything about it yet, and now this has happened."

Others might think we're the kind of people who would betray someone after they've served their purpose.

"I know that Madam is a woman of her word, loyal and righteous. We'll talk about everything tomorrow."

It's getting late, you should get some rest.

Early the next morning, Granny Liu got into her carriage and left the mansion.

Lady Liu's family lived in the same alley as Tang Dianshi. Following the address given by the county magistrate, she saw the Tang residence, and further in, she saw the Yun residence.

The driver knocked on the door, and the newly purchased doorman opened it. "Who are you looking for?"

Granny Liu quickly stepped forward with a smile and replied, "Hello!"

I am Liu Mama, the personal maid who serves the county magistrate's wife.

"Excuse me, is Madam Liu at your residence?"

"Granny Liu, please forgive my poor eyesight, I was rude!"

Your timing is unfortunate; my wife went back to her hometown a few days ago.

"Please come in and sit down, Granny Liu. Madam Yun is here. I'll go in and inform her right away."

"No need to trouble yourself. Since Madam Liu is not at home, I will not bother you any longer."

I wonder when Madam Liu will return?

"This lady didn't say anything when she left."

"Thank you, I'll take my leave now. Madam is waiting for my reply!"

"Please take care, Granny. Come visit again when you have time."

The woman who opened the door just now was Ningxiang's newly purchased doorman, named He Yinhua. Everyone called her Aunt He. Her main job was to guard the gate.

When Granny Liu returned to Madam Su, she said, "Madam, Lady Liu is not at the Yun residence. She went back to her hometown a few days ago."

"Load the stuff into the car right away, let's go now."

"Yes, madam."

These gifts were prepared in advance; they could simply be loaded onto the carriage.

When the magistrate saw that the lady was about to go to Liujia Village, he arranged for two servants to accompany her, firstly to drive the carriage, and secondly to protect the mother and daughter.

They traveled in two carriages. Wang Yalan, her daughter Su Manzhi, Granny Liu, and a young maid named Lüzhu rode in one carriage, while the other carriage was filled with gifts.

The carriage traveled smoothly on the road, slowing down when the road became rough, since the county magistrate's wife and daughter were riding in it, and they were very precious!

Although the horse-drawn carriage was moving a little slower than usual, it was still much faster than the oxcart, and it arrived at Liujia Village in less than an hour and a half.

The carriage had just entered the village when it bumped into a villager. The driver immediately inquired about Liu Siyue's house, but the villager was too busy looking at the carriage to hear what the driver was saying.

The driver asked again, raising his voice slightly, "Sir, may I ask where Liu Siyue lives?"

The villagers were startled by the shout. "Oh, oh, oh, April's house! They live at the end of the village. Just walk straight along this road, and you'll see the house they're building."

The coachman bowed, raised his whip, and drove off.

When the villagers saw two horse-drawn carriages arrive in the village, they wondered what the carriages were doing and who they were visiting, as they had never heard of any family in the village having such wealthy relatives.

The villagers are always curious about new things and like to watch them. Adults and children alike follow the horse-drawn carriage.

The village roads were full of potholes and difficult to walk on, so the villagers followed at a distance.

The villager who had just been asked for directions stopped working and turned around to watch the commotion. He looked smug and said, "You don't know who they're looking for, but I do."

"cut!

"You, someone who's never even been to the county seat, who knows you? What could you possibly know? Go away."

"I really know, they just asked me about Liu Siyue."

"In April, what kind of rich people could she possibly know? Could it be that she offended someone and they're causing trouble for her?"

"Well, that's possible. She has a bit of money and keeps going to the city every few days. She might offend someone without even realizing it."

"That makes sense, let's go take a look."

The carriage stopped in front of Liu Dawang's house. Most of the people who had been working in the yard had already gone home, leaving only about ten people to finish up, with a few carpenters working on the doors and windows.

Granny Liu and Green Pearl got off the carriage first, and Madam Su and her daughter got off the carriage with their help.

The noisy crowd outside immediately quieted down.

Madam Su was dressed in brocade robes, her hair was styled in a high bun, and her head was covered with glittering pearls and jade. Her face was delicate and beautiful, like a fairy in the moon.

Su Manzhi wore a pale yellow dress, which made her skin look even whiter and rosier, and she looked so charming and lovely that everyone who saw her would like her.

When Master Chang saw two carriages arrive at the gate, and that a noble lady and a young lady were sitting inside, she didn't dare to ask any questions and immediately went inside to inform the master of the house.

"Master, you have distinguished guests: a lady and a young lady."

Liu Siyue quickly put down the child and went out with Liu Ruyun and Ruxue. She didn't know who the person was, and she never expected it to be the county magistrate's wife.

Granny Liu spotted Liu Siyue immediately. "Miss Liu, I'm so glad to see you."

"Greetings, Granny Liu!"

Upon seeing Granny Liu, Liu Siyue immediately recognized the noble lady and young lady. "This humble subject, Liu Siyue, greets Madam and Young Lady."

"Madam Liu, there's no need for such formalities. We hope our visit hasn't been intrusive and we haven't disturbed you!"

"What are you saying, madam? I'm more than happy to hear this. This isn't the place to talk. Let's go inside and chat."

The house is under construction and is quite dirty and messy. I hope my wife will not mind and will be understanding.

"Building a house is a natural process. I came uninvited and was impolite, so why would I complain?"

Your house is nicely built; it must be very comfortable to live in.

Liu Siyue invited the person into the main room and told Ruxue to quickly pour water. Ruxue brought in four bowls of brown sugar water. "Madam, our home is simple. We don't have good tea or good utensils. Please make do with what we have."

"Granny Liu, have someone bring everything in."

"Yes, this old servant will take care of it immediately."

When Madam Su was there, the villagers dared not discuss it openly, but as soon as they entered, the villagers immediately started talking about it.

"My goodness, this lady and young lady are so beautiful, they're like fairies."

There isn't anyone in the surrounding area who's better looking than her.

"These people are all ladies and young women from wealthy families in the city, pampered every day. How could they not be beautiful?"

If my wife and daughter ate well, lived in good houses, and dressed well every day, they wouldn't be bad-looking either.

"With your wife and daughter looking so ugly, eating fatty meat every day, and wearing clothes made of gold, they're still so shabby. A duck can't become a swan."

The villagers laughed heartily, but when they saw the boxes being unloaded from the cart, their laughter vanished.

They were speculating about the identity of the visitor and why he would send so many things to Liu Dawang's family. They were both envious and helpless.

Some villagers asked the driver about Madam Su's identity, but were intimidated by a sharp glare from him. His eyes were fierce; "What do you want by asking about my wife? What are your intentions?"

The villagers were so frightened that they quickly backed away. "We were just curious, that's all, we had no other intentions."

The driver leaned back on the cart and closed his eyes to sleep.
