Chapter 105 The Gao Family's Misfortunes Continue
Madam Liu Er didn't lose face even though she lost the matter. She raised her eyebrows and sneered, "The Gao family still has more than ten shops in the city. Even if they lost their land, they still have shops. They are still richer than your son-in-law's family."

When the villagers heard this, they thought it was indeed better than their son-in-law's family.

But the villagers were also good at talking. They sneered and said, "Today you can lose your land, tomorrow you can lose your shop, and in the end you will lose everything. Liu Erjia, if you don't believe me, just wait and see."

"Just look! There are people from the Gao family in the capital! Does your family have anyone in the capital? Hahaha!" Madam Liu Er suddenly thought of this and became proud.

The villagers couldn't argue with him and left with embarrassment.

Liu Xingyue was also worried when she learned about the Gao family's affairs.

Madam Liu Er comforted her, "What are you afraid of? As long as the Gao family still has permanent and temporary workers, they won't ask you to work. The most important thing is for you to marry into the Gao family and give birth to children."

Liu Xingyue blushed, "I know, mother."

However, Gao Yucheng never even held her hand, but Liu Yingyue and Qin Yiran often went out together.

Humph, Liu Yingyue is eager to get married, right?
Liu Xingyue was comforted by Madam Liu Er and she was no longer panicking. She just counted on her fingers and calculated how many days were left before the wedding.

When something happened to the Gao family, Old Master Liu sighed a few times.

Liu Lizheng also sighed and said, "It's true that fortune and misfortune can come at any time."

The happiest person was Madam Liu.

When something happened to the Gao family, Madam Liu could no longer be proud, so she took the opportunity to mock the second branch.

Madam Liu is not like the villagers. The villagers are slow in speaking and will be finished by Madam Liu after they say a few words.

Mrs. Liu’s mouth is so good that she has no rival in the whole village.

"I heard that the Gao family has offended a powerful person. Today they are compensating the land, tomorrow they will compensate the house and the shop, and the day after tomorrow they will compensate the woman. Second wife, you have to be careful and keep an eye on Xingyue. Don't let the Gao family sell Xingyue to pay off the debt."

"Bullshit! You from the first wife's house, stop talking nonsense." Madam Liu stamped her feet in anger. However, since she was shorter and thinner than Madam Liu, she did not dare to fight with her.

When Madam Liu saw her getting furious, she felt very proud and thought, "Look, you can't win the argument, right?"

"Hey, I'm doing this for your own good. I'm telling you to be careful of the Gao family. Why are you so excited? I'm your sister-in-law, so I'm kind enough to remind you. If it were someone else's family, I wouldn't bother to pay attention. I'd rather watch the fun." Madam Liu patted Madam Liu's shoulder and said, "Be prepared. Don't let the Gao family trick you."

After saying that, she smiled and went home.

Madam Liu Er thought about what Madam Liu Da said and felt increasingly cold in her heart.

Yes, the Gao family had to pay compensation because they had offended someone.

Who could ask the Gao family to pay more than three thousand taels in compensation?
Obviously, this person is very powerful and not someone to be trifled with.

In the future, you might even have to lose your house and shop!
Madam Liu Er panicked and hurried back home, repeatedly admonishing Liu Xingyue, "When you marry into the Gao family in the future, if the Gao family asks you to do anything or go out to meet someone, you must not go."

Liu Xingyue didn't understand, "Mom, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

Madam Liu Er repeated what Madam Liu Da said.

Liu Xingyue panicked, "Mother, what should we do? How about we cancel the engagement? I won't marry into the Gao family anymore. Let Liu Yingyue marry them instead!"

"Cancel the engagement? Do you want the whole village to laugh at you?" Madam Liu was so angry that she poked her daughter's forehead.

"But if something happens to the Gao family, I'm afraid they will implicate me." Liu Xingyue was afraid. "You can't cancel the engagement!" Madam Liu Er said with a sullen face, "Even if the Gao family is poor, the house is still there! There are many valuables in the house. If you marry into the family, you will be the young mistress. If you want to leave the Gao family, you have to move some things out to avoid losing out."

Liu Xingyue started to cry, "If I marry and then leave, where will I marry in the future?"

Madam Liu Er glared at her. "If you only want to marry once, do you want to marry that Qin Kuizi? His family hasn't prepared a wedding room yet, nor has they made new furniture. They only have two and a half acres of thin land, an old mother who takes medicine all day long, and an old father who never comes home all year round, and an old man who is always causing trouble and suing people and is in debt! If you don't want to marry the Gao family, then swap with Liu Yingyue. You marry the Qin family, and let Liu Yingyue marry the Gao family!"

Liu Xingyue's expression changed, "I would rather die than marry into the Qin family!"

Madam Liu Er said, "Then marry into the Gao family. As the old saying goes, a lean camel is stronger than a horse! Even if the Gao family is poor, at least they have a big house and servants to serve you!"

Liu Xingyue was feeling restless, but couldn't think of any good ideas, so she pursed her lips and stopped talking.

Since May, the days seem to pass faster than any other month.

Almost in the blink of an eye, it was May 20th.

The day after tomorrow is May 22nd, the day when Liu Yingyue and Liu Xingyue are getting married.

Although all of the Gao family's land was lost to people from other counties, they still took the marriage seriously and began preparing for the wedding banquet, as well as inviting a sedan chair and a matchmaker.

But the Qin family still did not take any action.

Liu Lizheng could no longer sit still, so he sent Liu Dalang to Qin's house to find someone to talk to.

In less than a moment, Liu Dalang came back with a look of anger on his face.

"Why did you come alone? Where are the Qin family members?" Liu Lizheng looked behind Liu Dalang and found that there were no members of the Qin family following him. His face immediately became gloomy.

Liu Dalang gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, the Qin family's door is closed, no one is home!"

"What?" Liu Lizheng was furious, slamming the table and standing up, "Have you asked the neighbors? Where is their family?"

"I asked, and they said that the Qin family left early in the morning in two carriages. They didn't tell me where they went." Liu Dalang said angrily, "Dad, do you think the Qin family will play tricks on our Liu family?"

"No, Dad, Brother, the Qin family is not that kind of people." Liu Yingyue walked out of her room and said.

Liu Dalang shook his head. "Yingyue, you used to speak for the Qin family and I didn't say anything. But now, if you speak for the Qin family again, I have to think about it! You are getting married the day after tomorrow, and the Qin family didn't hire a cook, nor did they send betrothal gifts or wine and firecrackers for the wedding banquet. I heard that they haven't prepared new furniture yet. Isn't this a joke on us? Look at the Gao family, they started preparing a few months ago."

Liu Dalang could already foresee that on that day, the Liu family's eldest wife would be surrounded and laughed at by the entire village.

"If the Qin family dares to play tricks on our Liu family, I will not let them off!" Madam Liu grabbed the scissors on the table and walked out, looking like she was going to fight the Qin family to the death.

Liu Jiangshi didn't want to make things worse, so she pulled Madam Liu and said, "Mom, Dad, why don't we ask Dalang to look for the Qin family? Maybe the Qin family has encountered difficulties and is in a hurry to do things?"

"Looking for? Where to look?" Liu Dalang frowned.

"I'll go find it." Liu Yingyue said with narrowed eyes.

She remembered that before the Qin family started the rebellion, they were close to a place called Qingfengzhai in another county, so she went there to inquire.
