Liu family.

As soon as Liu Ruyan returned to her family, she began to cry, “Mother, my sister’s actions this time have really broken my heart. I have never wronged her over the years and have always treated her very well, but she has treated me like this!”

"Ruyan, what do you mean by that?" Mother Liu was completely confused.

Liu Ruyan, her eyes red, took out a handkerchief and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

“A few days ago, my younger sister came to see me and questioned me about why I didn’t plead with the King of Xiang. It wasn’t that I was unwilling, but that I had already done my best.”

The King of Xiang had finally found his son, and seeing him being bullied, he was unwilling to let Hanfei go no matter what, and no amount of pleading from anyone could change his mind.

My sister blamed me for that, and I couldn't argue with her. But that day, Ruozhen offended the King of Chu and was severely reprimanded, so I asked my sister to find her husband for help.

Who would have thought she'd say I deserved it, that it was all my karma, and that my whole family should be exiled like Hanfei!

"Mother, you said she and I are sisters, how could she be so heartless? She clearly doesn't treat me as family, even if we were enemies, she wouldn't be so cruel!"

Upon hearing this, Liu's mother was also taken aback. "Is there some misunderstanding? Why would Feiyan say such a thing to you?"

"It's not a misunderstanding. Everyone in the manor heard it clearly. Even after she left the house, she still blamed me for bringing it on myself."

Liu Ruyan looked aggrieved. "Mother, you must stand up for me in this matter. All these years I have done as you said, respecting my elders and taking care of my sister, but what have I received in return?"

Watching his mother's superb acting skills, Song Jingshen couldn't help but admire her secretly. So many things had happened that he didn't know about during the time he was away from the capital.

If my mother had had this kind of acting skill in the past, she wouldn't have suffered so much!

Mother Liu frowned. She never expected Liu Ruyan to come back crying, and she never expected Feiyan to be so stupid as to say such things.

Once the Song family is completely offended, won't we lose all the benefits we used to have?

"Ruyan, don't worry, your mother is here and will definitely stand up for you!"

Liu's mother patted Liu Ruyan's hand and gently comforted her, "I'll send someone to the Sun family right away. When Feiyan arrives, I'll definitely give her a good scolding!"

However, Feiyan only has one son, Hanfei, and now he's been sentenced to exile. She's truly heartbroken. As his older sister, you should try to bear with her more."

Hearing these expected words, Liu Ruyan would have felt upset in the past, but now that she no longer relied on the Liu family's kinship, she didn't think it was a big deal.

Now she has a son and a daughter, and her children are filial. She knows that her parents are biased, so she doesn't need to care. However... her children work hard to earn money, and she will never let these people take advantage of her again!

……

Liu Feiyan brought Sun Yan'er to the Liu family. The two had already discussed it along the way, and they would make the Song family hand over the fried chicken shop no matter what.

Even if you don't give it to me, you should at least hand over the fried chicken recipe!

"Yan'er, this fried chicken doesn't seem too difficult to make. Can't we figure out the recipe ourselves?"

Liu Feiyan frowned. If they could figure out the formula themselves, they could take this opportunity to ask for some other compensation.

“Mother, I specifically asked around. Ever since the Song family’s fried chicken business became popular, many families have tried to imitate them, but the taste can never compare to theirs.”

My fourth cousin is good at business and has traveled extensively; he must have found the recipe from elsewhere.

Sun Yan'er spoke listlessly. Ever since she heard that Lin Zhiyue had been sentenced to exile this morning, she felt like a wilted eggplant, and her heart was filled with sorrow.

She initially took a liking to Lin Zhiyue's status as a Marquis, but later, when Lin Zhiyue was demoted to Earl, she didn't care, as he was still from a noble family.

Especially after spending time together, she fell in love with Lin Zhiyue's gentleness and sincerely hoped to enter the Lin family, but now... it seems there is absolutely no hope.

I just wonder how many people know about her meeting with Lin Zhiyue during this time, and whether it will affect her reputation?

"Then let's go to this fried chicken shop!" Liu Feiyan didn't notice her daughter's strange behavior; all she could think about was money.

To make Hanfei suffer less during his exile, she spent a lot of money on bribes. Not to mention, her husband was very unhappy about this and had been drinking outside for the past few days, withdrawing a lot of money from the accounts.

If we don't get more money, how can we afford to spend it like this?

However, the two bumped into the old woman who was with Liu's mother as soon as they arrived.

"Granny, where are you going?"

"Madam was just asking me to come find you, I didn't expect you to come."

The old woman looked surprised before telling her about Liu Ruyan's complaint. "Miss, you did something wrong. Apologize and say something nice later."

Upon hearing this, Liu Feiyan's expression changed. "What? I haven't even complained yet, and she wants me to apologize?"

Sun Yan'er was also dumbfounded. In the past, only her mother would complain, and her aunt would never complain. Who would have thought that this time she would complain before them!

Doesn't that mean their entire plan has failed?

"Mother, what should we do?"

Liu Feiyan gave a mocking smile, "So what if she beat me to it? My parents have always been on my side!"

Over the years, Liu Ruyan has always yielded to her, not because she wanted to, but because her parents kept her in check, and she had no choice but to yield!

Even if they learn their lesson this time, they still won't be a match for her!

As Liu Feiyan entered the house, her mother said with displeasure, "Feiyan, you really went too far this time. Ruyan is your own sister, how could you say such hurtful things?"

"Quickly apologize to your sister and promise you'll never do it again, otherwise it will break her heart!"

Liu Feiyan glanced at Liu Ruyan, a cold smile playing on her lips, but her face showed a wronged expression.
