When they heard that Liu Yaoyao had found the legendary magic water, the victims' eyes immediately lit up and they started to clamor for her to bring it out and see it, like wolves seeing meat.

"Liu Jingshu, let me say it again, I really don't have that magic water! Stop throwing dirty water on me here!" Liu Yaoyao put her hands on her hips, looking impatient.

"Besides, when I left, my mother was still alive and kicking. It's only been a few days, and she's almost dying of illness since she's been with you. It's obvious that you're unfilial! Are you trying to pin this crime on me, the 'sold girl'?"

Liu Yaoyao is not someone who is easy to mess with. Since Liu Jingshu said that Liao Rong asked her to go to get married for her own good, she will regard herself as a "sold girl". She wants to see how thick-skinned Liu Jingshu is.

Liu Jingshu's face turned pale after being choked by Liu Yaoyao's words. She quickly put on a pitiful look: "Sister, I... I am just a thirteen-year-old girl. I... I came to you because I had no other choice. I thought that at least my brother-in-law is here to help me preside over the meeting. I... woo woo..."

As she cried, the disaster victims around her began to sympathize with her again, and accused Liu Yaoyao of being unfilial. They probably didn't throw away the vegetable leaves (actually there was nothing to throw away) because she had given them food before, and they said all kinds of things.

"We are all family after all. Even if our bones are broken, our tendons are still connected."

"If you have magic water, take it out and use it to treat your mother's illness!"

Liu Yaoyao snorted in her heart. To be honest, if she hadn't been unable to kill Liu Jingshu, she would have done it long ago. However, she now had a new idea. She felt that someone like Liu Jingshu should be promoted to a high position first, and then ruthlessly pulled down. Only then would she know the pain!

Liu Yaoyao glanced at Liao Rong, who was being carried up, and saw his eyelids trembling slightly. Wow, he was just pretending! His acting skills were even more professional than those of the opera troupe!

Liu Yaoyao smiled secretly in her heart, but she remained calm on her face. She said to Liu Jingshu, "Sister, let me tell you the truth. I really don't have that magic water! The fact that my prince's leg was healed was purely due to the blessing of the mountain god, and we found some rare medicinal herbs. If you really want to save mother, go to the mountain and worship the gods. Maybe the gods will see your sincerity and give you good medicine!"

When everyone heard this, they felt that there was some truth in what he said. Yes, it was indeed a bit unreasonable to bring a dying mother to the doorstep of her married daughter to make trouble. So, everyone's hearts gradually turned to Liu Yaoyao's side.

"Oh, isn't this the miracle doctor Doctor Xiao? With him around, why can't mother even afford medicine? If Doctor Xiao can't cure her, I can introduce another doctor to you. Someone, find Leng Ying!" Liu Yaoyao imitated Liu Jingshu's sarcastic tone.

After Leng Ying saluted Liu Yaoyao, he hurried over to take Liao Rong's pulse, but was stopped by Shi Qianhu. He opened his mouth and shouted, and his voice could be heard from far away.

"Mrs. Madam is so ill, and as her daughter, you still have the heart to argue with her! Hurry up and get the magic water out, maybe it can save her life!"

"Now, you are making excuses and refusing to give out the healing water. You are so disregarding your mother's life. You are so unfilial!"

"People like you are despised even by bandits, how can you be a princess! Hurry up and give your position to Miss Jingshu! Miss Jingshu is a filial woman. If she takes the position, she will definitely seek more benefits for everyone. Unlike you, you have the magic water but you hide it and don't take it out!"

Liu Yaoyao stood on the high stone steps, her eyes cold as ice, watching this group of people directing and acting out their own performance. She was already extremely annoyed.

What she was thinking about was how to grow seedlings, how to get back Liu Jingshu's batch of grain, how to mine the gold on the rock wall, and how to carry out water conservancy projects. How could she have the time to waste on these trivial things?

Ling Chenyu has been very busy recently. In order to implement Liu Yaoyao's "water conservancy project", he has been running around outside every day. Otherwise, if there was such a big commotion at the gate of the mansion, he would have jumped out to support Liu Yaoyao.

Liu Yaoyao took a deep breath and tried her best to make her tone sound calm.

"I want to save my mother, too! I invited the best doctors in the palace, but you refused to let them feel her pulse. What's the reason? You insist on saying I have some magic water. I tell you, there is no magic water in the world! If there really is, then why would everyone be afraid of illness?"

The people Liu Jingshu brought with her shouted, "If there is no magic water, how can the old, weak, sick and disabled people from Dayanzi Mountain go to work in the fields in such a short time?"

Leng Ying chimed in, "What the princess said is right. Don't believe everything you hear. Those old, weak, sick and disabled people who came out of the mountain village before are now able to work in the fields. That's because they took the tonic we found in the mountains. If you need it, we will also give you these tonics. But you keep saying that we have magic water, which is really too much!"

Shi Qianhu wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Liu Jingshu's eyes.

Liu Jingshu wiped her tears and choked up as she said, "In that case, why don't we live in Prince Chen's Mansion as well? This way, it will be more convenient for Sister to take care of Mother and she can also make some tonic medicine for Mother."

When the victims at the door heard this, they all agreed: "Yes, that's how it should be!"

Liu Yaoyao finally understood that Liu Jingshu and the others didn't really want the magic water. They just wanted to use this as an excuse to move into Prince Chen's Mansion.

She sneered and said, "The tonics in Prince Chen's Mansion have all been used up, and we are preparing to go back to Dayanzi Mountain to find herbs. Now that you are living in Prince Chen's Mansion, who will take care of you? Don't say that we have neglected you and bring up the magic water again!"

Liu Jingshu continued to cry, "We have come all the way from Liujiazhuang, let us go into Prince Chen's Mansion and rest."

The disaster victims around couldn't bear to see that no one was crying, so they all chimed in, asking Liu Yaoyao to open the door of Prince Chen's Mansion and invite the people in.

Liu Yaoyao is not a pushover. Since Liu Jingshu wants to use this to gain sympathy, she will let her gain enough!

Liu Yaoyao deliberately pretended to be helpless, sighed and said: "Alas, sister, if you had said so earlier, how could I not help you? But what you said just now was really a slap in the face to me. Woo woo... How about this, if you can kowtow and apologize to me in public, I will reluctantly invite you into the mansion, how about that?"

When Liu Jingshu heard this, she was stunned. She didn't expect Liu Yaoyao to make such a request. How could she step down? But the disaster victims around were watching. If she didn't agree, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing?
