Cultivation Quick Transmigration: The Believer Girl is Lacking Money and Morals
Chapter 89 Marriage Swap
She spoke casually, but Liu Qiongqiong was shocked. She suddenly realized that Liu Chenchen truly had no feelings for the Liu family anymore.
"Alright, alright, that's enough. We'll never stop talking about it. Let's get down to business."
Liu Chenchen took out five indentures from her sleeve and slapped them on the stone table: "Do you still want your four maids? And your wet nurse, I brought them back with me."
Liu Qiongqiong looked at the indenture on the table. Chunmei, Xiazhi, Qiushuang, and Dongxue, these four maids had been with her for at least five years, so of course she was reluctant to part with them.
But how could a place like the Xu family afford to support so many maids?
After hesitating for a long time, she finally said, "From now on, they are yours. I hope you will treat them well. As for Granny Yu... please return her to me."
Liu Chenchen didn't take the bait: "I wouldn't dare use your people. If you can't afford to support them, have your mother support them for you. I don't want them."
Ignoring people's expressions, he turned and left.
As Liu Qiongqiong watched the person walk away, she felt a mix of emotions, unsure of what to feel.
All she knew was that from this day forward, she would have to live with her half-sister's face on her mind.
As soon as Liu Chenchen stepped out of the garden, she saw Aunt Sun standing not far away. She knew without a doubt that she was waiting for her.
She didn't deliberately change her route, and continued walking forward with her eyes fixed on the road.
Aunt Sun became anxious upon seeing Liu Chenchen's attitude.
He reached out and blocked Liu Chenchen's path, calling out, "Chenchen, wait."
Liu Chenchen had no choice but to stop and look at the other person with a frown.
Aunt Sun felt uneasy under her gaze, but remembering that she was her birth mother, she suddenly became bolder:
"Chenchen, why did you speak to Madam like that just now? She is, after all, your..."
"Shut up." Liu Chenchen coldly interrupted her: "If you act so presumptuously again, I'll have Liu Wenyuan sell you off. Or, I'll make sure your good son, Liu Yanqing, stays in this quagmire for the rest of his life, never to rise again."
Aunt Sun was struck dumb, her face turned deathly pale, and her lips trembled as she was unable to speak.
Liu Chenchen looked at her like this, feeling nothing. She said coldly, "Don't mess with me, or I won't pay any attention to you. If you provoke me again, you won't want to know the consequences."
Aunt Sun finally broke down, crying out, "I'm your mother! How could you treat me like this?"
"Mother?" Liu Chenchen sneered, "A mere servant dares to ask me to call you mother? You only deserve to be a concubine. Remember, this is the last time. If you dare to show your face in front of me again, I'll cripple you."
After saying that, she ignored Aunt Sun's cries and continued walking forward.
When she returned to the main hall, the men were just coming out of the study. Upon seeing her return, Xiao Shiyan bid farewell to Minister Liu and the others.
Upon leaving the Liu residence, they discovered that Liu Chenchen was alone and asked with some surprise, "Where is the maid?"
"I gave them away," Liu Chenchen said calmly. "They were all Liu Qiongqiong's maids since she was little. I didn't feel comfortable keeping them by my side."
Xiao Shiyan nodded: "I'll have the broker send a few people over another day, and you can choose them yourself."
Liu Chenchen smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry about it, I have my own plans."
Xiao Shiyan glanced at her but didn't say anything more.
Since he had his own ideas, he didn't care anymore.
On the carriage back to the manor, Liu Chenchen leaned against the carriage wall and closed her eyes to rest.
Looking at her calm profile, Xiao Shiyan suddenly asked, "Was today... all right?"
Liu Chenchen opened her eyes, a slight smile playing on her lips: "Everything went very smoothly. I've said everything that needed to be said, and given all the warnings that needed to be given. From now on, those people from the Liu family shouldn't bother me anymore."
Looking at her confident demeanor, Xiao Shiyan suddenly became curious: "Are you that sure?"
Liu Chenchen raised an eyebrow and turned to look at the man: "Of course..."
"Of course it's uncertain. My job is only to issue warnings and resolve issues. As for the choices, isn't that their business?"
Xiao Shiyan chuckled; it was indeed something she could say.
Suddenly, I realized that marrying a woman like this might actually be an interesting thing.
If they could live like that for the rest of their lives, they certainly wouldn't be bored.
Liu Qiongqiong stood up, put away the indenture, and walked towards the main courtyard.
Still angry, Li asked immediately upon seeing her return, "What did she say to you?"
Looking at her mother, Liu Qiongqiong suddenly felt a little tired.
He took his mother's hand and led her into the inner room, helping her sit down in a chair before sitting down beside her.
Then he said softly, "Mother, from now on, don't go against Liu Chenchen anymore. We can't afford to offend her."
Li was taken aback: "What did you say?"
Liu Qiongqiong said seriously, "I told you not to go against her anymore. She is now the Crown Prince's wife, and she has the support of the Prince Xian's Mansion. We can't afford to offend her. Rather than being enemies, we should turn enemies into friends."
Li said in disbelief, "Qiongqiong, you..."
How could her proud daughter say such a thing? How could she admit defeat before even starting anything?
"Mother, listen to me." Liu Qiongqiong grasped her hand. "For the sake of the Liu family, for my brother, and for my sake, let's not go against her anymore. She promised to help Jingming, and said that as long as she's alive, she'll guarantee Xu Jingming won't dare take a concubine. Why should we continue to oppose her?"
Looking at her daughter's serious expression, Li finally sighed. Nothing was more important than her daughter: "Fine, fine, whatever you want."
Liu Qiongqiong breathed a huge sigh of relief when she heard her mother reassure her.
The next morning, after having breakfast, Liu Chenchen went to the main courtyard.
To be honest, she was very satisfied with this mother. Except for the first and fifteenth of the month and some fixed holidays, she didn't have to pay her respects to her on ordinary days, which pleased her greatly.
Princess Xian had just finished her breakfast and was sitting by the window looking at the account books.
Upon hearing the maid announce the arrival of the Crown Princess, she frowned and said, "Let her in."
Why are you looking for her at this time?
Liu Chenchen entered and first bowed respectfully: "Daughter-in-law greets Mother Consort."
"Get up." Princess Xian put down the account book. "You've come so early, is there something you need?"
Liu Chenchen raised her head, her smile widening instantly. Ignoring the fact that the princess hadn't let her sit, she plopped down next to her.
You can't wrong yourself, even if you wrong anyone else.
"Mother, Chenchen has something she wants to ask for your help with."
This was the first time the princess had ever seen such a young person in front of her.
There are few children in the family. The two sons are both like that, while the youngest daughter is a bit spoiled. Because she is the youngest and a girl, she is pampered. Usually, people are afraid of her. They never expected that Liu Chenchen would be so carefree.
The princess merely glanced at her without saying anything: "Oh? Tell me about it."
"My daughter-in-law is short-handed," Liu Chenchen said bluntly. "Yesterday, when she returned to her parents' home, she returned all the maids she brought from the Liu family to her elder sister. Now she has no one by her side."
Princess Xian was taken aback: "They've all been sent away?"
Liu Chenchen helped tidy up the messy account books next to her before answering, "Those are all people who grew up with my eldest sister. I dare not use them. I don't know who I should listen to in the future."
Princess Xian looked at her daughter-in-law with a dark expression. Couldn't she even organize her thoughts before speaking?
Shouldn't they give some high-sounding reasons? Is it genuine naivety or something else?
