Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1129: Chapter 665: Scheming

”Sigh!”

After pondering for a long time, Mr. Liu let out a heavy sigh, then another heavy sigh, ”Forget it, it’s already like this now, saying anything is too late, you all...”

Liu Er stared at Mr. Liu with confusion, ”Dad, we’ve already told you all the details, so why are you still worried? That little mayor is just a lucky retired soldier, what are you afraid of?”

”A lucky retired soldier?” Mr. Liu chuckled, ”Have you ever seen a lucky retired soldier who isn’t even thirty years old and reached this position?”

”It’s a joyous day, let’s not talk about these things.” Liu Laoda waved at Liu Yuhua, ”Xiao Si, don’t just stand there, go make dinner.”

”Since when is it your turn to call the shots in this house?” Mr. Liu glared discontentedly at Liu Laoda, ”I haven’t lost my mind yet, and you all just disregard me. Will there be a day when you don’t even want to give me a glance?”

”Dad, what are you talking about?” Liu Laoda smiled bitterly, ”It’s not that we want to make you angry, look at you, what are you saying?”

”Not wanting to make me angry? If you really didn’t want to make me angry, you wouldn’t make decisions behind my back, no matter what, you should at least consult with me, right?

Your father started as a small village official and reached the Full Rank without any backing, do you think I was just lucky too?”

”Dad, how dare I mean that...”

Mr. Liu snorted coldly, interrupting the stammering Liu Laoda, ”Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. In your hearts, your father just has a primary school education, and having today is just benefiting from the policy.

That’s why you all just superficially agree and secretly disobey what I say, without thinking if I didn’t have some consideration, would you have today?

Among my peers, who else managed to arrange their children like this in today’s situation? Huh? Who managed to set up their children like our family?

Now that your wings have hardened, you look down on your father, fine, I’ll wait, I’ll see what you will turn our Liu Family into.” He shouted towards the kitchen, ”Xiao Si, come out here.”

Liu Yuhua ran out hurriedly with a half-peeled green onion in her hand, ”Dad, what do you need?”

”Let your big sister handle cooking, I have something to ask you.”

”Dad!” Sister Liu looked incredulous.

Mr. Liu glared at his daughter, ”What? Can’t you cook a meal for your dad?”

”Fine, fine, I’ll cook, I’ll cook, okay.” Sister Liu pouted and went into the kitchen. Second Sister-in-law Liu saw this and quickly got up, ”Sister, I’ll help you.”

”I’ll help too.” Sister-in-law Liu followed them in.

The old lady gently patted Mr. Liu’s back, ”Old Liu, speak nicely, it’s a happy day, look how you scared the kids.”

”They wouldn’t listen even if I talked to them nicely.” Mr. Liu pointed to the seat opposite, ”Xiao Si, sit down.”

”Yes, Dad.” Liu Yuhua perched on the sofa, excitement all over her face, she had never been this valued since she was a child!

Mr. Liu softened his tone, ”Tell me in detail about Yu Hewei’s current situation.”

”Dad...” Liu Yuhua looked troubled at Mr. Liu, ”He never talks to me about his work, he doesn’t let me get involved.”

”You...” Mr. Liu sighed, ”You silly girl, silly from childhood to adulthood, haven’t you made any progress? When Yu Hewei took office, you should have come back and told me. At least I could give him some guidance. With his silly nature, if he leaves a mark on himself, who will dare to use him in the future?”

”Then what should I do?” Liu Yuhua panicked.

Liu Er couldn’t resist interjecting, ”Dad, didn’t you say Mayor Ye has a strong background? Why are you worried now?”

”Shut up!” Mr. Liu glared at his second son, ”I said all possibilities exist. I didn’t say Mayor Ye definitely has a background, nor did I say he definitely doesn’t have one.”

Liu Er didn’t speak, but from his expression, it was clear he was still a bit unconvinced.

”If it weren’t for me paving the way for you, with your hot-headedness, could you have today?” Mr. Liu glared at the second son and turned his eyes to his youngest daughter, ”Xiao Si, it’s not that dad disregards you, I just wanted to give you a push to make you strive harder.

Who would’ve thought, despite all the effort, you haven’t achieved that success, forget it, you can’t understand these things. I’ll talk to your husband when he comes back.”

”Dad...” Liu Yuhua waved the green onion in her hand, ”Shall I go to the kitchen then?”

”Go, go!” Mr. Liu waved his hand, a face full of disappointment.

”Dad, what are you planning to do?” Liu Laoda asked, worried, looking at Mr. Liu.

”What can I do? Things have come to this, what else can I do?” Mr. Liu let out a heavy sigh, ”Cai Hesen has become more and more unreliable these past two years, forget it, saying this is useless too.

You all just continue on your own paths. As for Yu Hewei, I will remind him to stay close to Mayor Ye. Since the mark is already there, might as well engrave it deeper.”

”What’s Dad’s intention?” Liu Er’s eyes brightened, giving a thumbs up, ”Dad, you’re really brilliant, I have to admit.”

”Okay, stop with the sweet talk...” Mr. Liu glared at his youngest son, ”Who knows if you’re trying to fool your old man again.”

”Dad...” Liu Er gave a wry smile, ”I had no choice, really. I genuinely think Dad’s strategy is good now.

No matter which ship capsizes, there’s still a backup plan. Besides, Yu Hewei isn’t part of our family. Doing it this way is the best.”

Liu Laoda whispered to Mr. Liu’s ear, ”Dad, were you doing that on purpose for Xiao Si to see just now?”

”You brothers have a chat, I’ll go rest in my room. Call me when it’s almost time.” The old man said, getting up and heading to the bedroom.

”I’ll go rest for a bit too.” The old lady followed him in, glaring at him displeased, ”Xiao Si is our own daughter. Do you feel no guilt doing this?”

Mr. Liu waved his hand, ”Alright, don’t get involved in this matter.”

”Can I not get involved? This girl has finally come this far, and you, as her father, are scheming against her. Are you really her father?”

Mr. Liu sighed, pointing to the edge of the bed, ”Old woman, sit and listen to me.”

”Alright, speak.”

”The matter with Yu Hewei is already settled, the matters with Laoda, Liu Er, and Third are also finalized. I want to control them, but I can’t.

Xiao Si, this child, has been simple-minded since she was young. We have overlooked her too much. She doesn’t say it, but she must hold a grudge. It’s time to warm Nuannuan’s heart.”

”Warming that child’s heart is still for the sake of Laoda and the others...” The old lady waved her hand, ”Forget it, they’re all my children. I know what you’re doing is right, but... it just feels guilty.”

...

In the kitchen.

Second Sister-in-law Liu went up to Liu Yuhua, looked her up and down, ”Xiao Si, now we’re at least a secretary’s wife, but with this look, you’re really losing face. Otherwise, why would you suffer that loss at the market today?”

Black stretchy pants paired with a fuchsia cashmere sweater, feet in a pair of mid-calf lambskin boots... Liu Yuhua looked at Second Sister-in-law and then at herself, nylon black pants with a beige thick knit sweater, wearing a pair of ordinary mid-heel black leather shoes...

Liu Yuhua, who initially didn’t think she looked bad, reflexively shrank her body, forcing a smile, ”The family burden is so heavy, having clothes to wear is good enough, how can I afford to dress up?”

”Xiao Si, it’s wrong to think like that. Ever since you married Yu Hewei, you’ve been saving and saving. Until now, life isn’t much better than others, and you’ve wasted yourself to no good.

In terms of age, I’m four years younger than you, but if we walked together, others would definitely think you’re four years older. Big sister, don’t you think?” Second Sister-in-law Liu said, deliberately standing next to Liu Yuhua for Sister Liu to judge.

Sister Liu, having just been criticized by her father, was full of anger. Upon hearing this, she looked Liu Yuhua up and down and gave a cold snort, ”Now she’s a secretary’s wife, with a bit of maintenance, she’ll immediately be younger than you.”

Second Sister-in-law Liu’s previously smiling face darkened, Liu Yuhua quickly pulled her sleeve, ”Second sister-in-law, big sis is just joking. Why don’t you all go out, and I’ll finish the cooking.”

”I dare not stay. If Dad sees, I don’t know how he’ll scold me.” Sister Liu glanced at the time, starting to speak sarcastically, ”Just became a secretary, already putting on airs, who else will matter in her eyes later?”

”After work, he had to buy tiger grouper. It’s not fresh if bought early.” Liu Yuhua quickly explained.

”The market is only a twenty-minute walk from our house. Even measured by foot, it’s already measured.” Sister Liu raised her eyebrows, ”People, they really change fast.”

Knowing that Sister Liu felt a pang of jealousy because her husband suddenly got a promotion, Liu Yuhua flat out didn’t respond. Seeing this, Sister Liu threw down the spoon and walked straight out of the kitchen.

At this moment, the door opened, and Yu Hewei came in carrying big and small bags, greeting the elder brothers sitting on the sofa, and asked, ”Where’s Dad and Mom?”

”They were a bit tired, so they went to rest first.” Brother Liu came over first, took the things from his hands, and shook his hand vigorously, ”Brother-in-law, congrats!”

”Brother-in-law, congrats!” Liu Er also came over.

Sister Liu forced a smile, but her words weren’t friendly, ”Brother-in-law, will you still recognize your big sister later?”

Yu Hewei chuckled, ”Big sister, what you said, no matter what changes in my job position, I’m still Yu Hewei. I was just in a hurry to come in and wish Dad a happy birthday and was a bit lacking in etiquette. Please don’t take it to heart, alright?”

”How dare I take it to heart.” Sister Liu pouted, ”Brother-in-law, I heard you’re favored by the Mayor. Did you mention to him today that Dad’s birthday?”
