Chapter 40: Did he harbor murderous intent towards Li Kechuan?

Today's events were not something that Old Madam Pei treated lightly.

But she also wanted to hear what Li Qingluo's attitude was.

Li Qingluo stood up and sat down at the feet of Old Madam Pei.

Then he lowered his head and obediently lay on Madam Pei's lap.

"Grandmother, I'm sorry. Thanks to your influence, I really did manage to vent my anger today..."

Although, I wasn't much happier.

But every word her grandmother said was sincere, and it was all for Li Qingluo's sake.

Although she had used her grandmother and relied on her grandmother's power to get to where she was, she was extremely ashamed and wanted her grandmother to know how scheming she really was.

However, Madam Pei did not blame her.

Instead, he gently patted her head.

“Good child, Grandma knows you’ve run out of options.”

"How similar we are, grandfather and grandson!"

"It's just that I used to have a powerful maternal family, and my grandmother herself had the confidence to leave the world behind. But what about you?"

“You have my blood flowing in your veins too. How could your grandmother not feel heartbroken and abandon you after what you’ve been through?”

"Grandma was willing to let you use her influence. From the day Grandma agreed to come down the mountain with you, Grandma was willing!"

So, Grandmother understood everything?

Only then did Li Qinglu realize how despicable she had been!

Unexpectedly, in her second life, she was able to gain genuine kinship.

That was the grandmother she missed in her previous life!

She truly felt her grandmother's sincerity.

At this moment, the grandmother and granddaughter held each other's hands, and all the missing emotions seemed to find sweet rain, watering their long-parched hearts.

From now on, they will no longer be alone.

The grandfather and grandson smiled at each other, and in that instant, all the gloom and misunderstandings from before seemed to vanish into thin air.

Madam Pei's mood improved considerably: "Grandma will no longer force you to go to them or try to mend any of that lousy father-daughter, mother-daughter, brother-sister relationship. They may be heartless, but Grandma is!"

"From now on, Luo'er will have someone to love her. From now on, Luo'er will stay with her grandmother, okay?"

Li Qinglu smiled and said, "Alright. Grandmother, shall I go with you to Qingsong Temple? I am willing to spend my life in seclusion."

Madam Pei poked her head: "Silly child, you should still get married. Going to the mountains, although it's far away from the world, is too hard."

bitter?

How could that be?

Yes, I have a grandmother.

Li Qingluo still didn't understand.

Madam Pei didn't talk to her about this, and asked again how she wanted to deal with Li Kechuan.

Li Qingluo: "Grandmother, your granddaughter does indeed have her own ideas in mind."

Madam Pei: "Tell me, Grandmother will listen. If it's feasible, Grandmother can help you!"

Li Qinglu shook her head: "Grandmother, please let your granddaughter do this herself. After all, you are his grandmother, and you can't bring yourself to do it."

Madam Pei snorted coldly: "Who do you look down on? My heart is as hard as ice!"

Li Qingluo smiled and said, "No, Grandmother is the softest-hearted grandmother in the world."

Madam Pei hugged her, overjoyed: "Little monkey. Alright, I'll assign Granny Deng to you. She'll be by your side from now on. With Que'er around, the two of them, grandmother and granddaughter, will work together even better to help you."

"Grandma will give you something else. This token is my keepsake. If you need any help, just take this token and have Granny Deng do it for you. There's almost nothing she can't do in the entire city of Jinling!"

A plaque landed in Li Qingluo's hands.

Li Qingluo was flattered and flattered.

Her grandmother came from the Pei family, which was founded by generals and marquises, and she herself was the only female general in the Great Liang Dynasty.

You can imagine the weight of this brand.

Li Qingluo immediately put it away, saying, "Then Luo'er thanks Grandmother."

Seeing her so unpretentious and poised demeanor, Madam Pei still couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow in her heart.

How come they just can't see such a good child?

However, Madam Pei remained serious and solemnly told Li Qingluo something: "Luo'er, promise your grandmother. You can do whatever you want with your brother, but one thing you must do is spare his life!"

Li Qinglu lowered her head, and after a long while, she nodded: "Yes, Grandmother. Luo'er promises you."

Did she really intend to kill him?

Madam Pei already knew that she was a woman with her own plans and would never be a pushover.

Never mind, let her be.

This time, she had truly had enough of being wronged.

Li Kechuan is about to suffer some hardship.

Otherwise, the Li family would have declined sooner or later.

After resting at Jingci Hall for two days, Li Qing returned to Hongfeng Pavilion.

Although the Red Maple Pavilion was haunted, Li Qingluo was not afraid.

She thought, what ghost in this world is more frightening than a human?

As for whether the creature in the Red Maple Pavilion is a human or a ghost, we'll only know after we find out.

Upon returning to the Red Maple Pavilion, Li Chaojing immediately sent someone to deliver one thousand taels of silver to Li Qingluo.

Madam Pei sent several skilled maids to guard outside the Red Maple Pavilion, saying that no one was allowed to approach within ten feet of Li Kechuan.

From now on, Li Qingluo no longer needs to pay her respects to her parents, and she doesn't even need to talk to the front courtyard about anything; she can just talk to Jingci Hall.

Even her idea of ​​going out to earn money was no longer so opposed by Madam Pei.

We just wanted her to recover first.

Li Qingluo was even happier about this than if she had received a thousand taels of silver!

However, since she did have some savings, she immediately told Que'er to put away the thousand taels.

Then he took out five taels of silver from his old private treasury and asked Que'er to prepare a good banquet so that everyone could eat and drink together at the Red Maple Pavilion tonight.

When Que'er saw her private stash, she was stunned.

"Young lady, where did you get so much money?"

Li Qinglu blinked: "Didn't I secretly run away and do some business before? Plus, I got two windfalls of money by chance, and that's how I saved up some money."

Sparrow gaped in astonishment, her face filled with disbelief.

When this news reached Madam Pei's ears, she was also very surprised.

"Really? She already has a hundred taels of silver in her own savings? She earned that back just from those two times she crawled out through the dog hole?"

Granny Deng nodded, saying it was absolutely true.

Madam Pei couldn't help but smile: "Interesting. Indeed, they are descendants of Pei Xiuzhen!"

"By the way, has she made any moves lately?"

Madam Pei had been waiting for a long time, and she also wanted to know how Li Qingluo would retaliate against Li Kechuan.

Li Kechuan was well aware that his sister would retaliate against him, and he had been unusually quiet lately.

Like a wild beast lurking in the darkness, waiting to deliver a fatal blow to Li Qingluo, the one who took the initiative.

These two siblings have become complete enemies.

Thinking of this, Madam Pei still sighed.

Granny Deng: "The young lady asked this old servant to do three things."
