Chapter 94: Drawing the Sword

ned.An Xuetang sighed softly, "Mother, can you tell me now, who did this to your face"Liu's face turned awkward, her expression clouded with discomfort."How could you I'm your daughter, don't you even...Liu raised her lips in a smile, "Alright, I'll go now."

While speaking, Mrs. Liu was about to get out of bed, but Mrs. Wang rebuked her, "Where are you going Is the family short on food and drink"

After finishing her words, she glared at Cui Shi, "Don't you hurry up and make her some steamed buns"

"..."

Mrs. Cui looked at her with disbelief, "Mother, what are you talking about There's no grain in the house to feed her!"

Annuan couldn't stand it anymore, she pulled her mother into the kitchen.

"Auntie Cui looked at her with confusion, "Nuan Nuan, are you really asking me to make steamed buns for her We don't have to give her any food, right Besides, if she goes to An Xue Tang, maybe she can even bring back some meat dishes for us"

An Nuan directly rolled her eyes, "Mother, don't daydream, okay Didn't you hear what Liu Shi meant She's threatening us!"

"Threaten" Cui laughed. "Does she, Liu, dare to threaten us"

What does she have to be afraid of now An Xue Tang poisoned us, and if we want the antidote, we have to rely on Liu Shi. So she's using this to threaten us, is there anything impossible about that

< Cui shi yi le, “Ni shuo zhen de” >

"Really," An Nuannuan pushed her impatiently, "Hurry up and make something for her to eat, then we can have a proper talk with her."

Only then did Cui grudgingly make a steamed bun for Liu.

Women's affairs, An Fugui and An Dahé almost never concerned themselves with. At this moment, they went back to their respective rooms.

Soon Cui made the steamed buns and she and An Nuannuan carried them into Liu's room. Cui even directly threw them to Liu, saying, "Here you go, eat this and see if it chokes you."

Liu's eyes lifted, "If I died, could you still live"

"...“

Now even Cui finally believed it, this Liu family had truly changed. She now dared to speak to them in such a tone!

"Liu shi you ge si jian ren, ni..."

"Enough!" Before Cui could utter any more harsh words, Wang interrupted her with a sharp rebuke, "Cui, be quiet and behave yourself."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Liu shi.

Liu ate the steamed buns slowly and meticulously, though they were tasteless, at least they could fill her stomach.

"Liu shi, now do you know that An Xue Tang poisoned us" Wang shi tried her best to make her tone not so harsh.

Liu raised an eyebrow and looked at her. "My lady, are you saying that Tang poisoned me Do you have any proof"

"I am the proof!" Cui shrieked, "That bitch not only poisoned our mother, but also poisoned me and Nuannuan. That heartless wretch who dared to poison us will be punished by heaven!"

Liu's eyes darkened slightly. Only now did she realize that these people she had always considered her own, were using such harsh words to insult her A Tang. How could she have remained indifferent before

Her daughter Ah Tang suffered so much, and in the end, she died because of this mother's bowl of medicine. Poor Ah Tang!

As soon as she thought of this, Liu Shi's tears almost welled up again.

But she still endured it, her eyes devoid of any emotion as she looked at Cui Shi:

You all say you were poisoned, but do you have any evidence If not, then it's slander. Everyone knows my Ah Tang is such a good person, how could she possibly do something so outrageous

"It's useless to deny it, An Xuetang did poison us," An Nuannuan said. "I'm giving you a chance to go find her and get the antidote now. Then we can pretend nothing happened."

Wang nodded. "That's right, I thought the same thing. As long as you get the antidote from An Xuetang, I won't hold a grudge against her for what she's done. Otherwise, if word gets out that she poisoned her own grandmother, her reputation will be ruined!"

Liu suddenly smiled, "Reputation! Mother, these things...Do you think my Ah Tang would care"

"Then what do you want" An Nuan Nuan clenched her fists, "The three of us were poisoned. You really don't plan to do anything about it Do you want to watch us die"

“I won’t do anything. This is a feud between you and Ah Tang, it has nothing to do with me. I won’t go ask Ah Tang for anything. You know, Ah Tang’s personality is different from before. If I went to ask her about this, it might upset her and she might not even acknowledge me as her mother.”

"How is that possible!" Cui roared, "I think you're deliberately not going, aren't you trying to watch us die"

"I said, Liu Shi, you are really clueless. Look at me…" Cui Shi shouted, she wanted to attack Liu Shi as she used to do before.

Ke An warmly held her back, and An Nuan warmed up and put on her acting skills. She had tears in her eyes, looking at Liu Shi with grievances:

"Auntie, are you really going to just watch me die I... I haven't even gotten married yet, my face is like this already, can you bear to see the poison still festering inside me"

Liu looked at An Nuan with a thoughtful expression, her heart wavering for a moment. But the next second, remembering her daughter's death, she turned away:

“I told you, your business with A Tang is none of my concern. I won't say anything to A Tang, please leave. Otherwise, I'll go to A Tang's place and ask for a room to sleep in.”

It has to be said, Liu learned very cleverly. She knows that Wang and the others won't let her go find An Xue Tang now, because if she went to find An Xue Tang for food and a place to sleep, it would mean that Wang and the others wouldn't give her food or let her sleep.

In this case, how could An Xuetang possibly give them the antidote!

Wang and her companions were pressed down by Liu's strength, unable to do anything but curse a few words out of frustration.

After they left, Liu shi let out a sigh of relief. For the first time in front of these people, she straightened her spine, and it was all because of what 'An Xue Tang' had given her.

Liu shi didn't know what she thought of this "An Xue Tang," but she didn't blame her in her heart. Instead, there was even gratitude.

Then, Liu suddenly remembered her promise to Yang Xiao. Her face changed, and she hastily got out of bed.

She put on her shoes and ran out, running to Yang's house. She couldn't let them bring the Taoist priest over. No matter who the current 'An Xuetang' was, she didn't want to hurt her.

But when Liu ran to Yang's house, no matter how she knocked on the door, there was no response from inside.

After knocking for a moment, she turned back.

Liu shrieked, clearly frightened.

Those suddenly appearing men in black were also startled by her face, coupled with her scream, the men in black immediately fled.

Liu turned and ran, she didn't even care which direction she was running in. For the sake of survival, she just kept running forward, calling out "Ah Tang, save me!" as she ran.e things she sent.But she also thought durian was a good thing, she figured as long as he tried it, he'd know how delicious it really was.So... so that day she went to the inn where he was staying and...
