Chapter 346: Lu Qin is dead
Xu Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He just felt that after today, everything would return to calm.
Whether it's him and Shao Rong or him and Lu Qin, everything will end happily.
Although he didn't like Lu Qin, he never thought of killing her. Lu Qin offended Shao Rong, and he had been helping her turn the situation around.
He was angry with Lu Qin, but at that time he just wanted to help Lu Qin get through Shao Rong first.
The old score between him and Lu Qin can only be settled after Shao Rong calms down.
The maidservant beside Lu Qin was pale and at a loss. When she saw him, tears immediately fell from her eyes, "Master!"
"Auntie..."
Xu Zhou raised his hand to interrupt her, "I know everything."
The maid next to Lu Qin was stunned. The incident had just happened, how did the young master know about it?
But she closed her eyes and said nothing. Since the young master knew about it, she didn't ask any more questions.
She only choked out two sobs, her pale face showing a bit of coldness and desolation, "Please go see Auntie..."
"At least...at least Auntie has been with you for this period of time."
As she said this, the bitterness on her lips became more and more obvious.
It was clearly summer, but she felt a cold wind blowing on her.
Xu Zhou hummed nonchalantly.
"I'll go and take a look."
Shao Rong let her go, so he had to teach her a lesson.
We can't let her speak so recklessly in the future.
As Xu Zhou was thinking this, he unknowingly walked to the door of the woodshed.
He just felt a cold wind blowing in.
The cold made him frown.
"It's almost summer, why is it still so cold?"
It seemed that it was just the doorway of the woodshed that was unusually cold.
Can--
Xu Zhou's heart was beating fast, and a bad thought emerged from the bottom of his heart, making his brows frown even tighter.
He remembered that the woodshed didn't seem this cold yesterday.
The maid beside Lu Qin was already in tears, with her head lowered and not saying a word.
He even forgot to open the door for Xu Zhou.
Xu Zhou inexplicably felt a bad feeling that penetrated into his bones. He stretched out his hand and hesitated for a long time before pushing the door open.
As soon as I saw her, I found her lying neatly on the straw, her face pale and her eyes closed.
Xu Zhou frowned, "Aqin?"
He called her that, but she didn't respond.
Xu Zhou's expression inexplicably stiffened.
"Aqin, please don't be so petty with me."
"You should know your limits."
"I came with you because I have something to tell you."
"Arong no longer cares about you. From today on, you can move back to your own courtyard. I locked you up here for your own good. If the Shao family knew that I was treating you well, Arong would inevitably feel resentful and would torture you with more petty means. But now she no longer cares."
"It's just that what you said that day was indeed a bit excessive."
"When you return to your yard, you must also reflect on your mistakes."
He said this in a rambling manner.
In the past, even if Lu Qin was pale and exhausted, she would still raise her eyelids and respond to him weakly.
But now, no matter how much he said, Lu Qin had no reaction.
Xu Zhou's heart skipped a beat.
"Aqin, I'm talking to you!"
What kind of attitude is this!
Xu Zhou was a little annoyed, and his voice rose by two notches. "Ah Qin, do you think that now that Ah Rong is done with you, you can just be so petty with me?"
"Things aren't as simple as you think, Ah Qin. You should know that this is just Ah Rong letting go, but the accounts between you and me are not settled yet."
He said this not intentionally to make Lu Qin angry.
But he felt that Lu Qin was clearly awake but deliberately did not open her eyes, which was really too much because of her favor.
After all, he had spoiled Lu Qin too much before.
She was so spoiled that she couldn't tell the difference between north and south.
She should never be so unreasonable.
However, even though he was so angry, Lu Qin didn't seem to react at all.
Xu Zhou always thought that he was a person with a very good temper. Even so, he felt a little upset because of Lu Qin.
He rushed forward and grabbed her arm, "I'm talking to you, are you listening?"
He wanted to continue being angry, but when he realized something belatedly, his face suddenly froze.
He turned his head and stared at the maid in front of him, "How on earth did you take care of Ah Qin?"
"How could her hands be so cold!"
The maid lowered her eyes and gave a bitter smile. Her voice was a little golden, tears welling up in her eyes. Lu Qin was truly the best master he had ever met. She would never beat or scold them for being so intimidating, and she always treated them as human beings. "Don't you already know that?"
It’s a pity that Lu Qin is not blessed.
I met a heartless and ungrateful person like Xu Zhou.
"Master, you clearly already know the answer. Why are you still asking?"
The maid plucked up her courage and raised her head at this moment, looking at Xu Zhou expressionlessly.
When Xu Zhou saw her tear-stained face, his heart skipped a beat and he felt a bad premonition.
His brows were almost twisted into a knot. "Why are you crying?"
The maid stared at him intently, "Don't you already know?"
She knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Zhou. She felt as if she had drunk a bowlful of coptis root water. Otherwise, why would she feel such a bitter taste from the tip of her heart to her throat? "Master, my aunt has passed away. She has gone to the underworld to reunite with her family. Master, shouldn't you let her go and stop disturbing her soul?"
"As the saying goes, when a person dies, all debts are forgiven. Even if Auntie did something wrong, she was bled for a full 30 days. She's already dead. You should at least let her go!"
At first, they all thought that since Lu Qin had a face very similar to Shao Rong, she would definitely have a rare future in this backyard.
Lu Qin usually had a smile on her face for everyone, so when she was taken into the house and promoted to concubine, although the maids were envious, they were also happy for Lu Qin.
They always thought that Lu Qin would have a good life after following the young master Xu Zhou.
But these good days did not come.
Instead, misfortunes came one after another. First, he was inexplicably kidnapped by his crazy cousin.
Fortunately, everything is safe and sound.
But after he came back, the young master allowed his cousin's men to humiliate Lu Qin, cutting Lu Qin's flesh and bleeding every day.
Finally, Lu Qin couldn't bear it anymore and died.
The maidservant burst into tears.
"My aunt is already dead, what else do you want, Master?"
"Even if Auntie has done a million wrongs, shouldn't Master let her go now?"
"Could it be that the young master hates the aunt so much that he won't be satisfied until he destroys the aunt's body as well?!"
Xu Zhou was a little dazed.
He couldn't hear anything.
I only heard the maid's words.
Lu Qin is dead.
