Chapter 268: The Second Miss Became My Knife Without Knowing It
Chunmei said she was a nice person.
It was said that she was kind to her slaves and never scolded them. She even helped some of them who had harmed her before.
Just like the old servant whose face was burnt by the fire, she was the one who once provided leftovers to Qijunyuan.
Her face was disfigured, and according to the lady's wishes, she was absolutely not allowed to stay in the mansion. Even if she was just a fireman, someone who didn't serve closely and would not affect the reputation of the Lin family, she would not keep her.
The lady would only blame the servant for being careless and not being able to light a fire properly, and would just throw him out for not doing his job well.
Everyone knew that if this old slave was thrown out, he would die.
It was she who helped the old slave. Although the old slave left in the end, her action did move many slaves.
The servants with bright minds would know that in the entire Lin Mansion, she was the only good person and the one who could help them.
So in the end, their hearts were actually with her.
Lin Qingjun curled her lips and smiled. So, this is what Ji Chenchuan meant? She understood.
She waved the round fan in her hand again, and her smile deepened.
"Little Miss, how about we just take her in?"
Xiao Tao Xia Yang couldn't bear it and spoke.
When Chunmei heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. Now even Xiaotao and the others were begging for mercy, and the Second Young Lady was so kind that she would repay those she had hurt with kindness. What's more, she had not done anything to let her down, so she should be kept, right?
Chunmei's eyes were full of hope.
Xiaotao and Xieyang also thought so. After all, their young lady was really a kind person.
Lin Qingjun spoke under everyone's expectant gaze.
"No, I, Qijunyuan, will never want her no matter what. Not only her, but also the other servants in the Lin Mansion. I won't want them either. Even if she dies in front of me, I won't even look at her."
When Xiaotao and the others heard this, they gasped, including Chunmei.
Such heartless and vicious words actually came out of Chunmei, the person she calls a good person?
Lin Qingjun sneered, "Why, Chunmei, are you surprised? Do you think that if you say these touching words, I will relent and accept you? No, no, no, you are wrong. I have never thought of taking you and Dai Qiao in, not only because you are from Lin Yingxue's side, but also because of what you did to my Qijunyuan."
Chunmei was extremely confused. "Second Miss, what do you mean?"
What's the meaning?
Her sneer deepened.
"Chunmei, have you forgotten what you have done?"
"It's okay, I'll help you recall."
"Seven years ago, before you became Lin Yingxue's slave, did you steal a slave's monthly salary? To avoid being discovered, you put the blame on Xiao Tao?"
What?
This time, not only Chunmei was stunned, but Xiaotao was also stunned.
Xiaotao suddenly jumped up and slapped Chunmei in the face without any hesitation.
Pop.
"So it was you? You hurt me? You bitch, why did you hurt me like that? Do you know that the monthly salary I saved for three years was the money I wanted to send to my distant uncle. He needed the money for medical treatment. I was just about to take the money out. It's you, you hurt me, you killed my distant uncle, I, I will beat you to death."
Xiaotao punched and kicked Chunmei madly.
Chunmei was already injured, so how could she defeat the crazy Xiaotao? And just when she was about to fight back, the setting sun hit her chest again.
He vomited blood with a "wow".
Xieyang's eyes were cold. How could she have treated Xiaotao like this?
Chunmei said, "It's just a little over ten taels of silver. You, are you really going to punish me like that? I, I didn't want to do that either. Who made me lose to Dai Qiao at that time? If I don't take out some silver to buy some expensive things, I, I will die too."
"Besides, you also said that he is your distant uncle and not your blood relative, why do you care about them?"
Xiaotao's eyes were bloodshot.
"Are distant relatives not relatives in your eyes? Yes, he is a distant relative, but he gave me a steamed bun when I was little. How can I not repay this kindness?"
"My poor uncle still couldn't get the silver... Chunmei, you really deserve to die."
Fortunately, she was soft-hearted just now. She was really blind. She said before that the young lady was heartless, but now it seems that the truly heartless person is Chunmei, right?
Lin Qingjun said coldly, "So, Chunmei, you should know now why I don't want you anymore, right?"
"You're a thief, you're someone who puts the blame on others, you're someone who doesn't even care about the lives of your own family. Tell me, Miss, why should I keep you here?"
"Most importantly, even now, you still don't repent?"
Why would she stay with such a person?
Lin Qingjun waved his hand and said, "Xieyang, throw her back. Throw her back to where she came from."
When Chunmei heard this, her face turned even paler and she crawled over in a panic, ignoring the pain in her chest.
"No, Second Miss, please don't. I know I was wrong. Isn't that enough? Please, Second Miss, please don't throw me back. I will die. The eldest lady will definitely not forgive me."
There was some sincerity in her tears this time.
but.
What does this have to do with her?
How could she let go of someone who had plotted against Xiaotao?
Lin Qingjun shifted his gaze and stopped looking at her.
Chunmei collapsed all over, her face showing despair.
Xiyang picked up the man and left without saying a word.
Xiao Tao was in a low mood. She never expected that something that happened many years ago would come up here again. She never expected that the perpetrator had no intention of repenting. It was a pity that her uncle still could not be saved.
Lin Qingjun took out a purse and handed it to her.
"Miss?"
Lin Qingjun said, "Take it. Don't blame yourself. I blame myself too. If I had been as powerful as I am now, I wouldn't have let you suffer like this. Although this silver is not much, I think your cousins will still need it."
Xiao Tao's tears fell again, "Thank you, Miss."
She was not pretentious and accepted all of it. The farmers were very poor.
Not long after, news came that Chunmei had been beaten to death with sticks.
Lin Yingxue has never been a kind person. If Chunmei had obediently done chores like sweeping and cleaning after coming out of Xueyuan, perhaps she could have saved her life. But she was so restless that she actually came to her to be her personal servant?
Humph, then she is seeking death.
Lin Yingxue would never let go of any servant who turned to Qijunyuan for complaint.
Dai Qiao looked at Chunmei's body in the yard. The sisterly love she had before was completely gone. There was only coldness, sarcasm, and pride in her eyes.
"Chunmei, don't blame me for being cruel. You can only blame yourself for being stupid."
"That's right. After we parted yesterday, I secretly told the Second Miss about how you stole Xiaotao's money."
"Although Xiaotao is a slave, the Second Miss treats her very well. I believe the Second Miss will definitely avenge Xiaotao."
"As expected, you were rejected by the Second Miss."
"We clearly agreed that I would take care of the interior affairs and you would take care of the exterior affairs. If you hadn't taken my place as the interior affairs chief, why would I have been in charge of the exterior affairs all these years?"
"To put it nicely, I'm the main person in charge. To put it bluntly, I'm just an errand boy, looked down upon and bullied."
"Also, that second young lady is also stupid. She made my knife and didn't even realize it?"
