The real daughter died tragically and was reborn, and the whole family cried and begged for forgiven
Chapter 4 The girl was tied up by 5 flowers
Pei was devastated and slapped Li Chaojing hard.
He is the eldest son of the Li family.
Even when the old general came back, he took his anger out on Pei.
"He's just a child, why are you taking your anger out on him? Aunt Deng has really taken great pains to take care of him over the years. Jing'er is still young, so it's understandable that he treats her as his own mother."
Pei looked at her husband in astonishment, as if she had been forced to swallow a fly, feeling both disgusted and sad.
Two years ago, she was wounded in the abdomen while trying to save his life on the battlefield. Now, even if she wanted a caring child again, she could no longer have one.
Therefore, the Li family is destined to have only this one legitimate son!
But her son was not close to her, and her husband also disliked the scars on her body. Pei was disheartened and no longer bothered to look at the disgusting things in the inner house, so she simply moved to Qingsong Temple to cultivate herself in peace.
This has been going on for thirty years.
After listening to what Nanny Zhang said, Li Qingluo seemed to want to say something but hesitated.
Aunt Zhang told her to speak freely. Li Qingluo lowered her head, twisted her fingers, and sighed, "Although I have never met my father, but...but there is one thing I must say. This is the Li family. I'm sorry, Grandmother..."
Aunt Zhang's eyes lit up slightly. "Oh? What did you say, young lady?"
Li Qingluo's ears were red, as if she was trying to break free from a very disrespectful shackle. It took a lot of effort for her to continue speaking in a low voice.
"Although I have never seen the world, I have occasionally heard people talk about some of the rules of wealthy families when I was in the countryside."
"It sounds like the Li family allowed Aunt Deng and Dad to get too close, disregarding the distinction between master and servant. That's why Dad never knew who was closer, ever since he was little. Aunt Deng did a great job in taking care of him, but that doesn't erase the greatest contribution of Grandmother as his biological mother."
"And my grandmother left my father behind for the Li family and my grandfather. It can be said that without my grandmother, there would be no Li family."
"So, the Li family was unkind and unjust to Grandmother. And Dad was unfaithful and unfilial to Grandmother..."
After saying that, Li Qingluo covered his ears again with a look of fear.
"Even if my father and the others heard this, even if I was struck by lightning, it was what I said, and I didn't lie."
Aunt Zhang was completely amused by her honest and timid appearance.
"Hahahaha! Good girl, good girl! Don't be afraid, there will be thunder in the sky, I, this old slave, will protect you!"
After saying that, Aunt Zhang left with a smile.
Li Qingluo watched her walk away and slowly put down the hands that were covering his ears.
She sneered in her heart: It turns out that the Li family's attitude towards their closest blood relatives is crooked from the root.
At this moment, she actually felt a sense of sympathy for the old lady.
Naturally, it would be even more determined to win over the old lady's heart.
After returning to Cuizhu Courtyard, Nanny Zhang knelt down and told Mrs. Pei the whole story she had just told Li Qingluo, as well as what Li Qingluo had said later.
Although Mrs. Pei was angry that she had told her past to the younger generation, she was even more surprised by what Li Qingluo said.
"Did she really... say that? She said the Li family was unkind and unjust to me, and that her father was unfaithful and unfilial to me?"
Nanny Zhang nodded hurriedly, "Yes, old lady, the young lady almost frightened herself to death after she finished speaking. She also knew that she had said something extremely treasonous."
A hint of anger quickly appeared on Madam Pei's face: "How audacious! How dare you say such disobedient words so casually!"
Nanny Zhang lowered her head in fear and said, "Don't be angry, old lady. I think the young lady is just too naive and hasn't been properly educated in etiquette, so she said these things."
Mrs. Pei sighed softly.
"Why should I be angry? Everything she said was for me."
"I'm mad at her. If even a single word of these words gets back to the General's Mansion, how could she possibly survive?"
Madam Pei's gaze fell on Madam Zhao, and there was a warning in her eyes that made Madam Zhang shiver all over.
Sure enough, ginger is still spicy.
The old lady considered the girl's long-term situation, unlike herself, who just took advantage of the moment to say these words.
"I know I was wrong. I promise that I will keep all the words I said today to myself and will never tell anyone else!"
Only then did Mrs. Pei nod and no longer bother with Aunt Zhang, the close attendant who had served her for decades.
"I never thought that even though she had been living away from home since she was young, she was the only one in the Li family who hadn't been corrupted by her parents."
Aunt Zhang asked, "Would the old lady be willing to see the young lady?"
Mrs. Pei still shook her head.
"Don't be impatient. Let's wait and see. I want to see if she is really honest and kind, or if she is just pretending to be nice to me."
Li Qingluo was really not in a hurry.
In addition to practicing calligraphy every day, she also went to the vegetable garden in the Taoist temple to help the Taoist priests hoe the fields and plant vegetables.
She was very good at hoeing the fields and planting vegetables, and could even discuss with the Taoist priests what the problem was when the vegetables were infested with insects or the harvest was poor.
Some of her insights even helped the Taoists solve some confusions.
After gaining the Taoist's trust, Li Qingluo personally went to the kitchen to cook a few dishes.
She has been cooking since she was young, so she is quite capable.
If it was cooked well, she would personally deliver it to the outside of Cuizhu Courtyard and ask Aunt Zhang to take it to Old Madam Pei for a taste.
At first, Madam Pei was reluctant to eat it, so she gave it to Nanny Zhang and Ying'er.
Later, when he heard Aunt Zhang and the others praising the delicious food, he couldn't help but take a few bites, and his eyes lit up as well.
"I didn't expect this girl to have such skills."
But then he thought that this was a skill she had acquired through hard work since childhood, and he couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
"I heard that she lives a very leisurely and comfortable life in this Taoist temple every day, and she enjoys it very much?"
Pei was considering whether to summon Li Qingluo to meet her tomorrow when a servant hurriedly came to report, "Old Madam, something bad has happened! A group of people have arrived from the General's Mansion, saying they want to forcibly take the young lady down the mountain and into the city!"
"The girl fought back to the death and has been tied up!"
