Liu Piaopiao pouted and threw herself into Madam Liu’s arms. Tears streamed down her face. “Mother, it’s me. If I hadn’t chased her out of the residence, she wouldn’t have…”

There was no Mo Yuan who barged into the Liu residence at night, nor were there any old maids. Cai Yun wanted to die because she didn’t want to leave.

Liu Piaopiao repeated these words in her heart, as if it would become a fact if she said it a few more times.

“Chase her out of the residence? Why didn’t I hear you mention it yesterday?” Surprise flashed across Madam Zeng’s eyes. Then, she thought of something and understood. She picked up a handkerchief and wiped Liu Piaopiao’s tears.

When Liu Piaopiao came back yesterday, she only remembered to mention the scare. She had indeed forgotten to mention it.

Liu Piaopiao looked up with tears in her eyes. She took a handkerchief and wiped her tears.

For some reason, she did not mention Shen Yijia. She only felt that it was not appropriate for Cai Yun to continue staying by her side.

Madam Zeng could tell that she was not telling the truth, but she was afraid that she would make her precious daughter blame herself even more, so she did not mention it. She only advised, “I know that you value relationships, but everyone has their own fate. It was actually her own choice. Don’t be too sad.”

“Besides, our family has always treated her well. No one expected her to be so extreme.”

Liu Piaopiao sniffed and listened to Madam Zeng. She nodded.

Seeing that she had calmed down, Madam Zeng said, “You lack a personal servant in your room now. Bring Nanny Liu over in the next few days.”

“Or see if there’s anyone you like among the maidservants. You can pick another to serve you.”

Liu Piaopiao was about to say that there was someone in her courtyard when she thought of something and said, “If Nanny Liu goes to my place, you’ll have one less person to serve you.”

Madam Zeng tapped her forehead. “Nanny Cai alone is enough for me.”

“Besides, when you find a new maidservant, you have to return her to me.”

Liu Piaopiao blushed. “I understand. I won’t snatch Mother’s love away.”

“Nonsense again. Aren’t you the one I like?”

Liu Piaopiao sniffed indignantly. “Isn’t it Father?”

“What about me?”

A middle-aged man suddenly walked in. He had good facial features and looked like an upright person.

Although they were from the Liu family, their clothes were only made of fine cotton.

Madam Zeng did not expect her husband to come over at this time. She blushed. Before she could stop her, Liu Piaopiao smiled and said, “I’m saying that you’re Mother’s favorite, Father.”

“Oh?” Liu Deyi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Madam Zeng. He laughed. “What a coincidence. Both of you are my favorites.”

Madam Zeng looked at him reproachfully and suddenly frowned. “Have you found the coachman from yesterday?”

At the mention of the coachman, the smile on Liu Deyi’s face disappeared. “I found him, but he was already gone when I found him.”

“I got someone to investigate his past and found out that Wang Er, who had stolen property because of a gambling debt, was his younger brother.”

Liu Piaopiao also had an impression of Wang Er. He was her father’s servant who had been sent to the court by her father because he had stolen property.

His father originally wanted to teach him a lesson so that he wouldn’t dare to gamble again in the future. Unexpectedly, that person died in prison.

This coachman had only come to the residence after Wang Er died. In that case, it was possible that the coachman had already planned to avenge his brother.

“Amitabha.” Hearing that another person had died, Madam Zeng chanted and twirled the prayer beads in her hand. “Fortunately, our dear daughter is fine. Bad things have happened to our family one after another in the past two days. I think we have to choose a day to pray in the temple.”

Madam Zeng believed in Buddhism and set up a small Buddhist hall at home. Every day, she would copy scriptures for two hours in the small Buddhist hall.

She would not see anyone at this hour, even Liu Piaopiao and her father.

In Madam Zeng’s words, one had to be sincere when copying scriptures and not be disturbed by worldly matters.

Apart from that, their family would stay in the temple for a day every month or two. Recently, because of the Hun army, the city was too chaotic.

It had been a long time since they last visited.

“Alright, we’ll do as you say.” Liu Deyi held Madam Zeng’s hand and patted it.

Madam Zeng pulled her hand away and glared at him. “What are you talking about? The child is still here.”

Liu Piaopiao pursed her lips and smiled. She stood up and bowed. “I won’t disturb Father and Mother.”
