The real daughter died tragically and was reborn, and the whole family cried and begged for forgiven

Madam Deng: "This... I haven't figured it out yet. It will take some time."

"But everyone who knows her says that Mei Xue is a bright and considerate woman. They also say that she was supposed to be released from the palace in a year. She suddenly became the eldest young master's close friend."

Mrs. Pei was so angry that she didn't want to talk anymore.

Living contract!

This Mei Xue is actually a live-indentured maid.

This indentured maid died in her employer's home, yet the entire Li family was able to keep it a secret!

I didn't hear any wind at all.

This wealthy family, having a bastard son even before the marriage, would definitely be laughed at.

Moreover, if you have a bastard child before you get married, it is difficult for you to have a good marriage.

So, usually in this kind of situation, there will be a bowl of lost soup, and the child who shouldn't have come first will be the one who gets it.

But such a vicious result of one corpse and two lives is indeed rare in the world!

Even if it gets out, who would dare to marry into such a family?

Li Kechuan is twenty years old this year. A year ago, he had arranged a good marriage. If she remembered correctly, it was with Cui from Fujian.

Moreover, the two families have decided to get married in the early spring of next year.

The Cui family is a distinguished and noble family with a history of hundreds of years. Although it is now showing some signs of decline, there are still many members of the family serving as officials in the court.

Their Li family is the new rich, while the Cui family is the old rich family.

The Li family naturally married into such a clan.

Therefore, if the Cui family knew about Li Kechuan’s past secrets, Li Kechuan’s marriage would definitely be in jeopardy!

Moreover, after being rejected by the Cui family, how could he talk about a good marriage?

If your reputation is ruined, your future career will be difficult.

Is this Luo'er's revenge?

Mrs. Pei laughed out loud.

"It seems that Luo'er is going to kill someone with a blunt knife."

"But it's true that cutting slowly with a blunt knife is the most painful. She also knows how to strike the snake at its weakest point..."

"Just let her be. Help her with all your heart."

Madam Deng: "Yes. I will do my best to help you."

Li Qingluo's injury took half a month to heal and he was almost recovered.

During this period, in addition to applying scar-removing ointment every day, she also had to take Snow Muscle Pills and skin cream orally every morning and evening.

Slowly, her complexion became visibly brighter.

Even those rough hands have become softer recently.

After Li Qingluo recovered, Madam Pei was planning to arrange some urgent needlework and piano lessons for her, but unexpectedly Li Qingluo went to her for help, saying that she wanted to learn some self-defense methods.

Old Madam Pei had been wielding swords and guns all her life, so there was no way she could persuade Li Qingluo not to learn such crude things.

Even though she said she was disgusted, she was actually very happy in her heart.

She is indeed Pei Xiuzhen’s granddaughter, she looks so much like her!

However, the only people around Madam Pei who were suitable to teach Li Qingluo were the old maids, so she simply found a female master with excellent martial arts skills for Li Qingluo.

As a result, Li Qingluo became extremely busy every day.

In addition to practicing calligraphy and reading, one also needs to practice all kinds of martial arts.

Fortunately, she is indeed the descendant of Old Madam Pei, and she has some talent in martial arts.

Li Qingluo learned very quickly. Within a month, he had made some progress and could even fight against Que'er.

After hearing this, Mrs. Pei was very happy and came to Hongfeng Pavilion to see her in person.

"So? If you want to learn to play the zither, paint, play chess, arrange flowers, or write poetry, there's still time."

When Li Qingluo saw his grandmother coming, he happily dropped the sword in his hand and went forward to hold her arm.

"Grandma! Please don't force me to learn things that give your granddaughter a headache. I fall asleep as soon as I see the music. Playing chess can calm me down, but flower arranging and writing poetry are better left alone!"

Madam Pei laughed heartily upon hearing this, and could not help but poke Li Qingluo on the forehead before saying lovingly, "You! Well, I'll be very pleased if you can finish writing your caterpillar-like handwriting first."

Que'er immediately went to the room and showed Mrs. Pei the calligraphy that Li Qingluo had recently written.

After taking a look, Mrs. Pei nodded repeatedly.

There was a bit more relief and appreciation in his eyes when he looked at Li Qingluo.

"Luo'er, it seems you put your heart into what you are going to do."

Li Qingluo did not dare to be proud after hearing what her grandmother said.

Helping Madam Pei to sit down, she poured tea herself and served it to her grandmother.

"Grandma, it's only because of the calligraphy you gave me that I can now practice writing like this. However, I'm still far from being as good as you are. I hope you can supervise me."

Madam Pei patted her hands and said, "Good girl. Starting next month, I'll hire you a female teacher. It's time for you to catch up on your studies."

Li Qingluo was surprised that her grandmother wanted to hire a teacher for her?

"Grandmother, doesn't this world advocate that women's virtue lies in their lack of talent? Luo'er used to think that being able to practice calligraphy was the world's greatest tolerance for women's learning."

It’s no wonder that Li Qingluo thought this way.

The truth is that the environment she grew up in was limited, and there was no girl around her who had ever received an education.

It was Li Qingzhu. According to Li Qingluo, apart from having good handwriting, Li Qingzhu had never attended a proper girls' school.

Madam Pei hugged Li Qingluo distressedly and said, "Luo'er, there is another meaning behind these words. Do you know?"

"Even if a woman has no talent, she must have good moral character."

"But it doesn't mean that we women should really stop studying."

"In Jinling City, which of the truly noble ladies isn't well-versed in poetry and literature? Grandmother wants you to study, but she doesn't expect you to become a talented woman or pass the imperial examination."

"Grandma wants you to understand right and wrong, distinguish good from evil, and clearly understand where the ways of the world come from and where they are going!"

"Don't be a muddled fool."

"But you've been working so hard lately. If you add studying to the workload, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it. What do you think? Are you willing to study?"

Li Qingluo was deeply shocked after hearing what Mrs. Pei said, and felt that her heart became much more open-minded.

"I do, Grandmother!"

"And grandma, Luo'er doesn't feel tired! Grandma doesn't know how satisfied and fulfilled Luo'er is every day now. I don't have to go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, collect firewood, or work in the fields. Those chores at home are no longer my business."

"Now that I can finally do what I want to do, I can enrich myself and become the person I really want to be. How can I feel it's hard?"

"Grandma, you don't know this, but I'm really happy to have your support and cultivation. I will never let you down!"

As he spoke, Li Qingluo knelt on one knee again and rested his head on Madam Pei's belly.

Madam Pei nodded repeatedly and patted Li Qingluo's shoulder gently. "Good, good boy. Those days are over. We have come a long way. We still have plenty of time for the rest of our lives. Take your time."

"By the way, I heard you're pretty good with sword and bow?"

Li Qingluo agreed readily.

Although they were only at the level of a jack of all trades, they still fooled Madam Pei a bit.

After seeing it, Mrs. Pei was very satisfied.

She was overjoyed to be able to reach this level now.

After returning to Jingci Hall, looking at the invitations at hand, Mrs. Pei asked Nanny Zhang to reject them all.

Aunt Zhang was puzzled. "Old Madam, didn't you say this morning that you would pick one or two families to visit, and then slowly bring your daughter to the eyes of these noble families in Jinling City?"

How could he change his mind just after seeing the girl?
