Chapter 75: Revenge Doesn’t Wait Until Tomorrow

“Grandpa, don’t be angry, drink some water.” Mi Xia secretly poured half a cup of spirit spring water from her space, adding half a cup of ordinary water.

“Xiao Xia, you’ve suffered, it’s my fault for not raising my daughter well.” The old man choked, his voice thick with emotion.

“Grandpa, I’m fine. I must have done a lot of good things in my past life to be your granddaughter-in-law.” Mi Xia said with a smile.

“Drink the water.”

“Okay, Grandpa, drink.” The old man looked deeply at Mi Xia before drinking the water she offered.

For some reason, the old man felt much more comfortable after drinking the water, but he didn’t think much of it, assuming it was Mi Xia’s thoughtfulness that improved his mood.

Liu Baoguo and Wang Fen came out of the room. “Liu Shumin, we’ve felt for you all these years you suffered at the Li family, but don’t forget, you insisted on marrying there.”

“We, the Liu family, haven’t wronged you. We’ve supported you all these years because you’re a daughter of the Liu family.”

“But what have you done for the Liu family all these years? What gives you the right to talk to your third sister-in-law like that?”

“And Mi Xia, what did she do wrong? Did she start the trouble? If you despise rural people, then don’t eat! Almost all the food you eat is produced by rural people.”

“I think you’ve had it too good for too long. If we’d known you’d turn out like this, your father and I shouldn’t have pitied you. You deserve it! You brought this on yourself! And! If you can’t teach your daughter properly, I will!” Liu Baoguo was furious, his gaze fixed on Liu Shumin.

Liu Shumin’s face flushed with anger. Her elder brother was speaking to her like this in front of the younger generation. She looked at the old man, hoping he would speak up for her.

Seeing his daughter looking at him, the old man glanced at Mi Xia beside him, then at Liu Baoguo, before saying,

“Sigh, I’m old, I can’t manage family matters anymore. I haven’t got many years left. You handle your own affairs from now on.”

Seeing that her father wouldn’t help her, Liu Shumin angrily slapped Li Guifang. The slap stunned Li Guifang.

Cupping her face, she said, “You actually hit me.” Then, with a look of resentment, she ran out.

“Dad, elder brother, it’s Guifang’s fault. Don’t be angry. Xia, Shufang was wrong. Auntie apologizes for her.” Liu Shumin said, looking at Mi Xia.

She couldn’t let her father and brother ignore her. For so many years, their family had depended on them.

She was planning to get Guifang a job after high school graduation, what would happen to Guifang if they stopped supporting them?

Third Aunt Liu felt a sense of satisfaction seeing Liu Shumin like this.

“Grandpa, Dad, don’t get yourselves upset over a little thing.” Mi Xia spoke up.

“Wanwan is still in the room, I’ll go see her.”

“Is Wanwan alright? I’ll go see her too.” Liu Baoguo quickly said.

The old man sighed helplessly looking at his once most beloved daughter, and went to see Wanwan.

“Let’s go see Wanwan too. She’s Grandpa’s great-granddaughter, much closer than a granddaughter.” Third Aunt Liu said, pulling Third Uncle Liu away.

Only Liu Shumin remained in the living room, neither leaving nor staying, finally returning home worried about Li Guifang.

Fortunately, the visitors were close friends. Seeing Liu Shumin approaching aggressively, the guards stopped those who came later.

In the room, the little girl was playing with a rocking horse, a gift from the old man. Mi Xia’s visit to Liu Wanwan was just an excuse…

She didn’t want to see Liu Shumin and her daughter, but they all followed.

“Grandpa, Mom and Dad, Third Uncle and Third Aunt, Wanwan is fine, don’t worry.” Mi Xia awkwardly wished she could disappear.

“That’s good. Wanwan, Grandma will take you out to play, okay?”

“Grandma, I want to hear a story.” Liu Wanwan said in a milky voice.

Seeing that she wasn’t affected, Wang Fen finally felt relieved.

That evening, the Liu family was preparing to leave when a hurried voice came, “Dad, elder brother, Guifang hasn’t come back yet, something must have happened.”

“She’s never come back this late before. Waaaa, it’s my fault, I shouldn’t have hit her today.”

Liu Shumin cried, occasionally glancing at Mi Xia.

Mi Xia felt very uncomfortable, but she couldn’t say anything since Liu Shumin’s daughter was missing.

Wang Fen angrily said, “What are you looking at my daughter-in-law for? Did she make your daughter run away?”

“Sister-in-law, I… I didn’t.” Liu Shumin stammered, but that’s what she thought. If it weren’t for Mi Xia, that country bumpkin, she wouldn’t have been afraid of her father and brother ignoring her, and thus slapped Li Guifang.

“I see you’re not worried at all about Li Guifang being missing.” The old man looked at Xiao Zhang before slowly saying.

“Dad, she’s my own daughter, how could I not be worried? Waaaa… Dad, save Guifang, she’s your granddaughter.”

Although angry, the old man couldn’t completely ignore Li Guifang. “Eldest, Third, call someone to look for her.”

After Liu Baoguo and Third Uncle Liu made their calls, the family waited in the living room, only Liu Shumin crying constantly.

Soon, the phone rang, and Liu Shumin forgot to cry.

She couldn’t hear what the person on the other end was saying, only pacing anxiously.

Liu Baoguo said, “Yes, send someone to investigate, bring the person here to Grandpa.”

After hanging up, Liu Baoguo said coldly, “She’s been found. In a house rented by a group of thugs. She was drunk, and the thugs were…groping her!”

“What? I’ll kill him! Which little bastard? I’ll kill him!”

Liu Shumin never expected Li Guifang to be with thugs, and… and… what if they’d arrived later… Waaaa.

“Who are you going to kill?” The old man snorted coldly.

This daughter was hopeless, but his granddaughter… no, she couldn’t stay with Liu Shumin anymore.

The old man sighed heavily. “Eldest, splash Li Guifang with water to wake her up, then send her to the army. The women’s army, start from scratch, don’t let her say she’s related to our Liu family, treat her like any other female soldier.”

“I’m old, I’m going to bed. You handle the rest.”

The old man went to his room.

“Brother, don’t send Guifang to be a soldier, please, brother.” Liu Shumin cried heartbreakingly.

Liu Baoguo snorted and ignored her. Soon, two people carried Li Guifang in.

“Sir.”

“Yes, put her on the ground, go get a basin of water.” Liu Baoguo ordered.

Liu Shumin was dumbfounded. A cold water splash, wouldn’t she catch a cold?

She rushed over to shake Li Guifang, “Guifang, Guifang, wake up, why did you drink so much?”

Only after a basin of water was splashed on Li Guifang’s face did she suddenly wake up.

“Who…who dares to splash me? Do you know who my grandfather is!” Li Guifang shouted arrogantly.
