3263 Desperate Plea

"Absolutely shameless!"

Seeing Princess Kang lose her temper, Madam Liu He flinched in fright and couldn't help but shrink her neck.

She was naturally a little afraid of her sister-in-law.

Her sister-in-law had held the position of Princess Kang for decades. Needless to say, she was absolutely the most accomplished person in their Liu family for generations.

For a merchant family like the Liu's to produce such a daughter, it was truly a blessing from their ancestors.

Relying on Princess Kang, the Liu family's life had been very comfortable.

In just a few decades, as a merchant family, they had risen to the status of a top-tier family in Longyan City, and the Princess's contribution was naturally indispensable.

Madam Liu He didn't dare to offend her, so she just smiled apologetically, "Sister-in-law doesn't know how to speak, Lanyun, please don't be angry."

"Sister-in-law has been queuing at the entrance of Zhenhui Workshop every morning for the past few days, just to buy a Beauty Elixir. Unexpectedly, I didn't get the elixir, but I got a belly full of anger. Just now, sister-in-law misspoke." Madam Liu He had a thick skin, and it wasn't long before she adapted to Princess Kang's cold face, chuckling awkwardly as she tried to make conversation.

"Lanyun, my demands aren't high, and our Liu family isn't short on money." Madam Liu He gestured at her臃肿 body, saying with a distressed expression, "I just want to improve my physique."

Madam Jiang, the Royal Censor's wife, pursed her lips beside them. Being well-mannered, she didn't laugh out loud, but merely covered the smile at the corner of her mouth while taking a sip of tea.

Princess Liu Lanyun's face was lined with frustration. She glanced at her sister-in-law and sighed, "What's your rush? You've been like this for decades, and my elder brother has never disliked you. Your position as the lady of the house has been stable for so many years, hasn't it?"

"Elder brother is already several decades old. As long as you don't act foolishly and maintain your appearance as the mistress of the house, will he really divorce you?"

Madam Liu He couldn't help but grumble inwardly, Of course you'd say that. The Old Prince is powerful and influential, and he's been devoted to you for so many years.

Even though you haven't given birth to any children in decades, the Old Prince has never even taken a concubine to warm his bed. You can imagine how comfortable your life has been!

Is your elder brother not that kind of person? The Liu family has so many beautiful wives and concubines; it's hard to guarantee that your elder brother won't be momentarily confused and charmed by some vixen, jeopardizing Madam Liu He's status.

Besides, now that you've become slender and young again, the Old Prince naturally dotes on you. Of course you're not in a hurry!

Madam Liu He grumbled inwardly, but dared not show it on her face. She just sobbed, "Little sister-in-law, please take pity on your sister-in-law. If I continue to gain weight, I'll become boundless, wuwuwu. You have a good relationship with the little Crown Princess. Would you please beg a Beauty Elixir for me? Your sister-in-law can pay double the price!"

Liu Lanyun was annoyed by her. With a cold face, she said, "You go back first. I'll inquire about the situation and then talk."

"Little sister-in-law, your sister-in-law can only beg you." Madam Liu He wiped her tears, looking at her pitifully.

Liu Lanyun felt a mix of annoyance and amusement. She was several decades old, yet as emotional as a child.

Thinking about her sister-in-law's current predicament, a hint of sympathy inevitably crossed her heart. After all, they had been sisters-in-law for decades. No matter how unbearable, there was always some genuine affection there.

Liu Lanyun nodded, saying indifferently, "This Princess understands. You go back first."

Madam Liu He's heart swelled with joy.
