Chapter 246 My little aunt, please stop crying
Xiaotao put down the hot water, placed the towel in place, turned around and was about to leave.
"Xiao Tao."
Lin Qingjun called out.
Xiao Tao stood there, but she did not look back. Instead, her posture became a little stiff.
Lin Qingjun shook her head. She walked forward, grabbed Xiaotao's shoulders, straightened them, lifted her drooping chin, made her face her, and looked at her clearly.
"Xiao Tao, are you angry?"
Xiao Tao's eyes froze for a moment, then she turned away in panic and said against her will, "Miss, I, oh no, I didn't."
Lin Qingjun laughed angrily and pointed at the basin of hot water sprinkled with flower petals. "Then tell me, what is that?"
Xiao Tao mumbled and refused to speak.
Lin Qingjun said, "We don't grow flowers in our Qijun Courtyard, and the flowers in the backyard and back garden are not as exquisite as these. Did you pick them in the back garden of the outer courtyard?"
She continued, "If I'm not mistaken, you picked that red rose. Don't deny it. Look at your arms. They're all scratched by the thorns."
Although roses are beautiful, their branches are full of prickly thorns.
Therefore, few people in the mansion liked the flower. Originally, the flower was to be removed by Qi, but the flower bloomed so beautifully that it looked like a sea of red from a distance, which added a lot of scenery to the garden. That’s why it has been preserved until now.
She pulled Xiaotao to the edge of the couch and forced her to sit there. She took out a bottle of ointment from the small cabinet and gently applied it on her arm.
Xiao Tao quickly withdrew her hand, "Miss, no, this is a gift from the prince. This medicine is very precious. I, your servant, can just apply the gold wound medicine myself later."
Lin Qingjun couldn't let her do that and held her hand tightly.
"Precious? Humph, no matter how precious it is, it's not as precious as my sister's arm."
"Xiao Tao, if you still have me in your heart, don't do such stupid things again in the future."
"Also, don't try to please me by imitating those idiotic people."
Her little Tao would never have thought of such an elegant thing as putting flower petals in hot water. She usually just boiled some hot water and told her to wash quickly, and then she would wash after she finished.
Her Qijun Courtyard was different from other courtyards. Hot water had to be used carefully. After all, Qijun Courtyard was very far from the well and it was not easy to get water.
But now, look at her, she actually sprinkled flower petals on it?
Lin Qingjun emphasized his tone, "Xiao Tao, I'm telling you, if you do this again next time, I will never talk to you again."
She does what she says.
Xiao Tao was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she blurted out, "No, Miss, you, don't ignore me, I was wrong, I was wrong, isn't that okay?"
Lin Qingjun snorted coldly, "You still know you're wrong? What's your fault? Is this your only mistake? Xiaotao, Xiaotao, you're really something. You even seriously call yourself a slave in front of me? You're stabbing me in the heart with a knife."
Xiao Tao's eyes were red. "No, miss, I didn't. I just, just..."
She didn't, she was just afraid that the lady would no longer want her.
The new sunset was very powerful. She flew away in a whoosh and disappeared. Moreover, she was very popular with the young lady. Whenever she talked with her, the young lady was always so happy. Moreover, the two of them seemed to be very compatible, as if they had grown up together, and she was like an outsider.
More importantly, whenever there was an important matter, the young lady would let Xiyang do it. In the past, she was the one who inquired about the lady and did the work in the front yard, and now, she let the newcomer do it.
The most important thing is.
"She's so smart. When she first came to the yard, you two knew what the other wanted to say without even saying it."
But what about her? She and the young lady have never been like this.
She was afraid that the young lady only wanted that setting sun and didn't want her anymore.
"I have been with the young lady and the aunt since I was a child. If you don't want me anymore, where should I go?"
She really couldn't imagine where she would live if she left them. She might as well die.
After saying that, Xiaotao started to cry out of fear.
From the first tear, the tears were like water from a valve that had been opened, and they could not be stopped.
Lin Qingjun was also panicked and hurriedly picked up a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
"Xiao Tao, don't cry."
"That's not what I meant. I didn't mean to scold you."
"I'm just angry. Angry about why you're so distant with me. Angry about why you're trying to please me. Is this necessary between us?"
"Okay, okay, my little aunt, please stop crying, okay? I was wrong. I shouldn't have been mean to my dear Xiao Tao. Isn't it enough for me to apologize?"
How could she have known that Xiao Tao would burst into tears all of a sudden? In all these years, she had never seen her cry so hard before. Wasn't it okay that she was wrong?
Lin Qingjun was in a panic, coaxing her and wiping her tears.
Seeing this, Xiao Tao burst out laughing, but there were two lines of tears on her eyes, which made her look very funny.
"...Miss, you are right. I was wrong. I just feel uneasy."
Lin Qingjun didn't dare to be mean to her anymore, so she coaxed her softly, "Yes, yes, you are worried, but Xiaotao, you must understand that no one can replace you in my heart."
"Originally, I wanted to talk to you alone tonight. I've noticed that you've been hesitant to speak these past few days, and you've been hiding behind others. But Xiaotao, she is her, and you are you. You, Xiaotao, are unique in this world, and the feelings between you and me cannot be taken away by anyone."
"My dear Xiaotao, have you forgotten how we got through these days?"
What was the state of Qijunyuan in the past? It was a place that even the maids who cleaned the place despised.
"We eat together, have hot water together, and sometimes, the three of us even sleep in the same bed."
Can this be compared to the setting sun?
"Also, Auntie treats you like her second daughter and I treat you like my sister. Why, just because a new one comes along, are you going to erase the relationship between us?"
Xiao Tao immediately shook her head, "No, miss, I, I really cherish it, I'm just afraid..."
"You don't have to be afraid. Just know that even if everyone in this world gathered around me and my aunt, you would still be the most unique one, because the three of us have already been a family."
After saying that, Lin Qingjun took out something that had been prepared long ago from the makeup box and spread it out in front of her.
"Look, what is this?"
Xiao Tao's pupils trembled.
"My indenture? This? Miss, Miss, you?"
Lin Qingjun laughed and said, "Yes, this is your indenture. Why do you think I let Xieyang go out today? Could it be that it was just to make the prince fall into the water?"
No, no, no, she had another purpose, which was to steal Xiaotao's indenture back while Qi and everyone else were gathered here.
"Tomorrow I'll have Xieyang take this to the government office and have a daughter's household registered for you."
