The Empress's Revenge
#195
Liu Zixia's mother looked at the woman at a glance then turned to her confused-looking daughter. Liu Zixia's mother rubbed her daughter's head then smiled helplessly. He just kept silent not replying to the words of the woman next to him who called him by the name of the aunt.
They arrived at a simple but still well-preserved residence, the residence was located not far from He Yidu's residence. He Yidu got off the carriage, he helped Liu Zixia down and walked towards the gate of the residence which was always locked tightly. Even his family was not allowed to stay here, He Yidu did all of that as a sign of respect for Liu Zixia's mother who had given birth to Liu Zixia.
"This place is still well cared for even though it is not liveable, there are several servants and guards assigned to take care of this place. I hope you like this residence," He Yidu explained with a sincere smile.
He Yidu took off the hat Liu Zixia gave him for fear of being considered impolite by Liu Zixia's mother later. He brought Liu Zixia's mother around the residence, introducing them to every courtyard including the largest main courtyard in the residence.
"Our servants will replace all the furniture in this house with a new one, the bedding as well as all the necessities will be replaced with a new one. We don't know until when this incident will take place we'll also fill the warehouse with the necessary materials." He Yidu said everything very smoothly and skillfully.
On the other hand, Liu Zixia and Lin Yuhua were sitting in the meeting hall while enjoying the tea that Eunuch had obtained out of nowhere. The two of them sat down sweetly waiting for He Yidu to finish introducing the entire contents of the residence to his mother's family.
"I think your mother wants to talk about something, isn't there anything you want to say to her?" lin Yuhua asked softly almost like a whisper because she was afraid of being heard by others and causing misunderstandings.
Liu Zixia shook her head, there was nothing she wanted to convey to the woman called mother. It had been years of abandonment, if the living owner of the original might he would not clearly remember the face of his own mother as well as Liu Zixia who had a strong memory. "There's nothing to talk to him about, I'm doing this all in return to this body."
They enjoyed the snacks that Kasim brought casually ignoring the circumstances around which were not too interesting. Liu Zixia shifted her gaze at the footsteps coming from behind, those footsteps sounding slowly perhaps the person deliberately walked very slowly to hear their conversation.
The woman was the woman who asked Liu Zixia's mother earlier, she was hiding somewhere hoping to hear Liu Zixia talk but not a sound, not even the clink of a spoon was heard at all. He tried to sharpen his ears, as he was about to move closer he was startled by the presence of Liu Zixia and Lin Yuhua in front of him.
"What did you hear? It seems exciting to be sitting here," Liu Zixia quipped in a tone of ridicule.
The woman stumbled and almost toppled backwards, lucky she could balance her body quickly.
Liu Zixia nodded in understanding, but the ridicule on her lips was not hidden at all. "I'm sorry! But we feel more at home alone, after all I don't want to pretend to be familiar with people I don't know."
Liu Zixia pulled Lin Yuhua's hand to follow her in search of He Yidu's whereabouts which He Yidu happened to also point to until they met.
"Where are you going?" he Yidu asked looking curious.
Liu Zixia did not reply, she pulled He Yidu's hand to follow her to leave the house. Confused, He Yidu glanced at Lin Yuhua whom Lin Yuhua replied with a headband.
"Hey wait! Will you take me to your house? I'm not gonna make a fuss there, I just wanna play." The woman did not seem to give up at all, she was trying to catch up to Liu Zixia's footsteps but she was blocked by He Yidu's men.
"Madam doesn't like to be bullied, if he's angry you might not be able to bear the consequences." The guard told the woman to leave the residence that would be the temporary residence of Liu Zixia's mother's new family.
"Grandmother! That woman is so arrogant, I want to go there, you see their train. The carriage was extremely luxurious, he definitely possessed great power in this Upper Continent kingdom. I'm sure with their help we can stay here a long time."

I'm sorry that up he likes a little, but I really can't up much. Besides being afraid that the story will end soon I also have another story in two places. One in Orange one in purple. Not just in one place, but in another place more promising income. You should know the salary in NT is not how much more for me who is low level. A day only a thousand, when to collect 1.4 try. To my old readers they must know that this story has long been not up and that is because the level never rises. I'm sorry for never satisfying your desire to read so much that's why I'm up twice a day so you're not disappointed.
For those who are still disappointed, I am really sorry 🙏🙏🙏🙏 I have tried my best to make you satisfied.
