Chapter 25: Forcing Luo'er to take blood and cut flesh?
Li Qingluo stood outside the door, listening to these words. What else was there that she didn't understand?
In her previous life, Qu also suffered from an eye disease.
Li Qingluo didn't hesitate to cut off her own flesh and bleed to make medicine.
But Li Kechuan poured them all out and fed them to the dogs.
She later learned that it was all a trap deliberately set by Li Kechuan to punish her.
He said the medicine smelled nauseating, and when she caught him, he used her inappropriate behavior as an excuse to lock Li Qingluo in the ancestral hall.
Inside the ancestral hall, they suffered even more humiliation and torment from the old women.
That time, Li Qingluo really almost died...
She clenched her fists.
In this life, there was no such coincidence; Qu's eye disease actually flared up several months earlier than expected.
I'm afraid he can't stand it anymore and is already planning to teach her a lesson!
That's why she endured her disgust for her and tolerated her being around every day, all so that Li Kechuan would devise this vicious plan!
Li Qingluo clenched her fists, trying to control her emotions and bring herself back to her senses.
Just then, the maid Qingyi came out of the room, and a rare smile flashed across her face when she saw her: "It's the Second Miss!"
Li Qingluo lifted the curtain and entered the room, respectfully greeting Madam Qu: "Luo'er greets Mother and Eldest Young Master."
Li Kechuan looked down at her, his eyes filled with indifference and disgust.
"Did you hear what Dr. Jiang just said outside?"
Li Qingluo feigned ignorance: "No. My grandmother taught me that eavesdropping is not a respectable thing to do, so when I knew that there was a doctor taking my mother's pulse, I kept my distance and did not hear what was being said inside."
"How is Mother's health?"
She looked up and cast a concerned glance.
Li Kechuan froze. She said it was something that couldn't be discussed openly, but he insisted on asking her if she heard it, implying that he himself was something that couldn't be discussed openly!?
But then she brought up her grandmother's teachings, leaving Li Kechuan speechless and only able to grit his teeth.
You really underestimated her.
Ever since she went to Qingsong Temple, he has never gotten the better of her!
He repeatedly angered his grandmother, who even physically assaulted him...
Looking back now, it was all because of her interference!
What a vicious and disgusting woman!
Unlike Pearl, who is as pure as the bright moon and simple without a trace of guile.
Madam Qu covered her eyes with a handkerchief and sighed repeatedly, "Do you wish me well, or do you wish me ill? Do you know that all these things have happened in the family because of your return?"
"First it was Pearl... my Pearl, and now I've lost half my life because of her passing..."
Qu seemed unable to continue, so Li Kechuan, with a dark face, continued, "Mother was so heartbroken because of Zhu'er's matter that she cried day and night and developed an eye ailment. Do you know whose fault this is?"
Li Qingluo didn't respond to that, but exclaimed in surprise and rushed forward to check on her: "Mother! How can we do something about your health? Of course, I want you to be well. Mother, do you know that I have been chanting scriptures day and night in the room, firstly to pray for Sister Zhu'er's soul, and secondly so that you can also be happy soon."
"I never imagined that Mother would miss Sister Zhu'er so much! I am heartbroken. If Sister Zhu'er could know this in the afterlife, she would also be saddened by Mother's actions."
Upon hearing this, Li Kechuan suddenly flew into a rage, stood up, and kicked Li Qingluo.
"Shut up! What right do you have to mention Pearl?"
The sparrow behind him swooped forward and blocked the attack squarely.
"girl!"
Li Qingluo supported Que'er, holding her tightly with both hands until Que'er shook her head, only then did Li Qingluo catch her breath.
She looked up and stared quietly at Li Kechuan.
She didn't say anything, but her eyes seemed to say it all.
To say he's manic and tyrannical is an insult; he's a madman, a beast unworthy of being human.
But she didn't say anything. All of this was just Li Kechuan's own interpretation, and his heart inexplicably became more and more irritable.
Even Madam Qu was startled and sat up abruptly, calling out, "Chuan'er!"
Que'er whispered, "Everyone says that the eldest son of the General's Mansion is an upright and honorable gentleman. But I never expected that he would be such a thug who would beat his own sister!"
Li Kechuan felt extremely uncomfortable under Li Qingluo's gaze, and now, being reprimanded in front of him by a maid, his anger had not subsided and seemed ready to explode at any moment.
"Where did this lowly servant come from? Do you want to be beaten to death?"
Que'er wasn't afraid of trouble. Instead, she helped Li Qingluo straight up and said, "Young Master, I am Que'er from the Old Madam's household, and now I am here to take care of the Second Miss."
"If you, young master, have any dissatisfaction with me and wish to have me beaten to death, you can go to the old lady and speak to her. She will then punish me accordingly."
Li Kechuan laughed in exasperation: "Very well! With your grandmother backing you up, you've become so arrogant, haven't you?"
“Li Qingluo, since we’ve come this far, I won’t beat around the bush. My mother’s eye ailment requires the flesh of her closest blood relatives as medicine and blood as a catalyst.”
“Since your birth, you have never been filial to your mother. Pearl’s death is your fault, and Mother’s eye disease is naturally caused by you! So, take the knife—”
The servant came in carrying a sharp little knife.
Upon seeing this, Que'er's expression changed drastically.
Li Qingluo pulled her behind her. She looked at Madam Qu, but Madam Qu avoided her gaze and dared not meet her eyes.
Li Qinglu sneered inwardly, but tears streamed down her face in a daze.
"My mother is like this, and I am heartbroken. I know that I am not as considerate as my sister Zhu'er, and I have not been able to stay by my mother's side to serve her since childhood... This is all my fault."
"Therefore, if my flesh and blood can help my mother recover, I am willing, even if it means giving up my life!"
As she spoke, Li Qingluo actually pulled up her sleeves.
Her thin, bony arms were covered with prominent veins.
Upon hearing her words, Qu suddenly turned her head and glanced at her, and upon seeing that, her heart skipped a beat.
Why is she so thin?
How much flesh and blood could she possibly have on her body?
Madam Qu frowned slightly. When she saw Li Qingluo pick up the knife, she simply bit her lip and made no attempt to stop her.
Because Madam Qu also believed that since Li Qingluo returned, she had the support of the old lady, so she had become somewhat lawless and arrogant, and she had to teach her a lesson!
Moreover, Pearl's spirit in heaven has not yet found solace.
She wanted Pearl to know that even though her biological daughter had returned, she still loved her the most.
She won't feel sorry for her...
Qu looked away, but Li Qingluo suddenly stopped cutting her hand at that moment.
"What, you can't bear to part with it? You're too scared?"
Li Kechuan sneered, "Li Qingluo, you are truly no match for Zhu'er! Back then, Mother suffered from a cough for three months, and it was Zhu'er who personally prepared medicine and took care of Mother every day until she recovered. And you, all I need is some of your flesh and blood, and you're already unwilling?"
