Chapter 71: A Sudden Scheme!

  The crowd of maidservants couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts, and they looked at Liu Dainai with a slightly distant gaze. Even Cui'er, who had served for many years and was the most trusted and capable assistant, could be so easily abandoned. Others would not be treated with any more importance, and if they followed her around, it's uncertain when they might become a discarded child over some small matter.

  Liu Rong saw everything, a smile playing on her lips. She had never had the intention of harming anyone, but since the other party had already made their move, she couldn't just let it go, or else it would be too unfair to herself!

  Mrs. Li watched the change in everyone's expression, and suddenly realized that she was also shocked by Liu Rong's cleverness and sincerely admired this cleverness.

  As an old man who has lived in the mansion for a long time, the more he sees the darkness and filth, the more he admires Liu Rong's counterattack, although it uses some small tricks, but it is practical and not the dark two-faced treachery of the official residence, nor is it deceiving people out of thin air.

  This is a positive conspiracy, an open and aboveboard one that no one can avoid! Unlike a negative conspiracy, it takes the high road, proceeding in a straightforward and upright manner, making everything clear and understandable to all, yet without leaving any room for error, so that everyone can only follow the direction she has mapped out.

  Just like playing chess, the situation has been set up and her opponent can only follow her moves to make their next move, ultimately leading them into a dead end!

  Liu Dainai felt something was off and thought to herself that it wasn't good, she had been deceived by Liu Rong again!

  He couldn't refuse Liu Rong's kindness and insisted on sending Cui'er out of the house, because if he really did so, it would chill everyone present to the bone, and he would truly lose everyone's heart.

  In the future, everyone will think that she only cares about her reputation and is ruthless to those around her. Once this kind of reputation gets out, it will be difficult for her to host banquets and control those domineering mothers!

  But leaving Xiao'er behind would also be unbearable. A child who was once abandoned by you, how could you still expect any loyalty from them?

  Liu Dainai desperately wanted to maintain a bit of her own image, but didn't know that by simply giving up on Cui'er and then having Liu Rong leave this matter behind, these maidservants had already seen it with their own eyes and remembered it in their hearts.

  They also thought about how to face Liu Dainai in the future, they would only show respect on the surface, do what she told them to do, but they would never again be as diligent as Qiaoer, knowing Liu Dainai's thoughts. They wouldn't even hesitate to tell lies and frame others!

  "Mother must be tired too, and Qiao'er has been frightened, why not take Qiao'er back to calm down." Liu Da Niang looked at the indifferent farewell: "Speaking of which, it's getting late, I suppose Father will be back soon. Who knows whether he'll go to Mother's place or Yang Niang's place today."

  "Alas, if Father went to Mother's place. But couldn't see Mother, and then went to Yang Niang's place..."

  Liu Dainai's face sank, and she glared fiercely at Liu Rong before ordering everyone: "Let's go back!"

  They come in a mighty torrent and depart with a faint trickle.

  Mrs. Li turned back and gave Liu Rong a thumbs up before leaving. Liu Rong smiled awkwardly, and after everyone else had left, only Lian'er, Qiuer, and Liu Rong were left in the house.

  Qiu Er immediately knelt down in front of Liu Rong: "Third Miss, Qiu Er deserves to die! Not only did Qiu Er misunderstand your kindness, but also almost harmed you!"

  Liu Rong gazed coldly at Qiuer, who was kneeling on the ground, without saying a word. She simply walked over and sat down beside her. Previously, she had been doing CPR and cardiac massage nonstop, worried that Lian'er wouldn't wake up. Just when she was about to give up, she finally managed to revive Lian'er.

  This series of changes has already made her very tired. Later, she fought another mentally exhausting battle with Liu Dainai, and she became even more exhausted.

  She really didn't want to bother talking to such an ungrateful maid anymore, anyway when Liu Dainai came back to her senses, she would definitely not let Autumn off, now whatever attitude Autumn had towards her was unimportant.

  She is also not prepared to think of a way to solve the problem for the other party after both parties have admitted their mistakes. One person, since choosing to do something, must take responsibility for what they did and bear the consequences.

  Otherwise, everything is done hastily and carelessly, without careful consideration, and decisions are made rashly. What if an innocent person is wronged?

  Today was her lucky day and she managed to take care of everything. If she had bad luck, she wouldn't have been able to save Lian'er. What would the outcome be then?

  It's not that if one hasn't caused any losses after doing something wrong, it can be considered as not having done anything wrong! Wrong is wrong, and if you've done something wrong, you should take responsibility for the consequences!

  Qiu Er knelt on the ground with her head down, pursing her lips, and Liu Rong didn't say a word. She just kept kneeling quietly, not begging for forgiveness or explaining herself, but instead remained silently kneeling.

  Lotus by her side wanted to speak up, but in the end she was choked with a single word!

  She is also a person who has made mistakes and harmed Liu Rong, just like Qiu Er. Therefore, she has no standing to help Qiu Er get away with anything.

  She is even more wrong than Qiuer!

  She still remembered when she woke up, coincidentally facing San Niangzi's eyes, and also saw the calm gaze that restored San Niangzi from anxiety.

  And then there's this one: Fine, just lie down on your bed and rest.

  The words are extremely dull, but if paired with the knowledge that her illness can be transmitted through saliva, would you still give her mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to save her life?

  There are few doctors who can do so much for their patients! Let alone that Liu Rong is still a young lady, and the one she saved was even a little maid who once wanted to frame her.

  This emotion was so complicated that it was hard to put into words, containing guilt, gratitude, and self-reproach, making her want to speak up for Autumn, but the words got stuck in her throat, ultimately she could only kneel down, kneeling together with her sister Autumn!

  The time for a cup of tea has passed, the time for burning incense has passed, an hour has passed.

  "Alright, stop kneeling." Liu Rong frowned, who would want to see two people with solemn faces kneeling in front of them during their rest: "Lian'er's illness will be fine as long as she eats easily digestible food, drinks plenty of water, and stays indoors for half a month. However, note that this is a contagious disease, although it's not a fatal illness like smallpox, getting it will still harm the body."

  Liu Rong finished speaking, no longer looking at the two people kneeling on the ground. She stood up, having rested enough, and her complexion should be better now, so she wouldn't scare Liu Jie'er. It was time to head back; otherwise, they would start worrying if it got any later.

  Thinking so, Liu Rong walked outwards.

  Lian'er and Qiuer hastily stood up, sending Liu Rong out. As Liu Rong was about to reach the gate of the courtyard, Lian'er gritted her teeth and spoke, looking at Liu Rong's back: "Although Water Spot is Miss's idea, it didn't intentionally harm Sixth Sister. At first... actually wanted to deal with you, but Third Miss, you were always busy, we couldn't get in touch..."
