Chapter 1903: Chapter 1905: The Thief’s Heart Never Dies
She then pulled out a set of gold jewelry from the box, "Take this and give it to Liu, let him find a way to give it to Young Master Wang, and say that I wish him and Miss Li a lifetime of happiness together."
"Yes, Madam! Young Master Wang must be very grateful to you now."
"I don’t care about gratitude, as long as they don’t interfere with Yunyun’s marriage."
Indeed, this time, the smooth dissolution of the marriage between Li Susu and Linhao owed much to the help from Young Master Wang. Of course, this was a matter of mutual assistance.
The day after learning about the matter between Li Susu and Young Master Wang, Yang Chuxia sent a letter to Young Master Wang, asking if he truly liked Li Susu. If so, he was to follow her instructions.
Fortunately, he truly had feelings for Li Susu, and likewise, Li Susu had never fully believed the words of Old Master Li and First Madam Luo.
Young Master Li’s letter stated that Old Master Li had already agreed to the marriage between Li Susu and Young Master Wang, and even Madam Li had compromised, which was excellent.
Otherwise, as long as Li Susu remained unmarried, First Madam Luo might forcefully shove her into this.
However, thinking about how First Madam Luo’s plan failed again this time, Yang Chuxia felt quite delighted.
The expressions on that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law duo must be quite entertaining.
And indeed, that was the case.
Ever since coming back from the Li Residence, the sound of things being smashed had not ceased in First Madam Luo’s yard over the past couple of days. There’s no denying, like mother, like daughter; when unhappy, they both loved to smash things.
"Madam, the Old Madam requests your presence!"
Indeed, she hadn’t been to Old Madam Luo’s courtyard since coming back. Who knows what that old woman wanted now?
With this in mind, First Madam Luo tidied herself up and went over.
"Mother!" Upon entering the room, Second Madam Luo was also there, tending to Old Madam Luo and helping her with her medicine.
Thanks to the doctor’s treatments over these days, Old Madam Luo’s illness had alleviated somewhat. Though she couldn’t get out of bed yet, she could speak, albeit not fluently.
"How...went? Any success?"
First Madam Luo shook her head.
"That, that little wench!" Old Madam Luo was thumping her hands and feet against the bed, her teeth gritted with fury, causing First Madam Luo to worry she might burst a blood vessel. "Why, why?"
First Madam Luo knew she was asking why they didn’t succeed—after all, even though the Noble Princess Concubine had issued a decree, how could they not have succeeded?
"That little tramp Susu has an affair with her cousin!" Second Madam Luo was still there, yet First Madam Luo, being the aunt, didn’t even bother to conceal this about Li Susu.
"Get out!" Upon hearing this, Old Madam Luo ordered Second Madam to leave.
Second Madam Luo pouted, thinking she didn’t care to listen to their plotting anyway; none of them had innocent motives.
"Truly an ill-fated little tramp!" After Second Madam had left, Old Madam Luo turned her thoughts towards First Madam Luo and said, "Since your, your niece doesn’t work out, get, get my maternal, maternal great-niece here; you must, you must put someone obedient into the third branch of the family."
"Mother, maybe we should let it go." First Madam Luo had no patience left to fight against Yang Chuxia, "You see, until now, none of our schemes have succeeded. We failed in managing Linyu’s marriage and brought Linfei down in this too. Your plan to take that child didn’t succeed either and it caused Linfei’s affair to spread across the Capital City. We haven’t even caught those two yet. Once we do, will the Ye Family let you off? And this time, not only we failed, but also allowed Susu and her cousin to be together, now my maternal family resents me to the core."
