Chapter 49 Bloody
Lin Qingjun knew how vicious Lin Yingxue and Qi were.
But who would have thought that they were so cruel that they actually sent people to assassinate them?
Bu.
Lin Qingjun snatched the knife from her hand and stabbed her in the abdomen.
Hot blood flowed out from the knife wound and flowed onto her hand, warm.
The man looked at her in disbelief, the fear in his eyes not seeming fake. She couldn't understand why it was so? She had clearly arranged it, so why was she killed by her?
She looked up and saw that Lin Qingjun's eyes were cold and without a trace of warmth, and there was no surprise on her face, as if she had expected it.
But this was impossible. How could she have predicted what the lady was going to do? She had only received the order a few hours ago.
"W-why?"
She wasn't dead yet, so the knife wound was a serious one. She didn't understand where she had exposed her weakness.
Let's put it this way, she has been in the Lin Mansion for more than ten years and has done countless things for the lady, including secretly dealing with some disobedient servants. It can be said that she has never failed.
She also knew that this Concubine Liu would die sooner or later, and she had long been prepared to kill people. She had already replayed the plan in her mind many times. She would first put a muscle softener in their food, then sneak into the yard at night and blow incense through the window.
And then kill them. With the first two safeguards, is she still afraid that she can't kill anyone? Not to mention the concubine, even the other people in this mansion can't escape. They are like meat on the table. She can cut as many knives as she wants and stab wherever she wants.
But she never thought that she would capsize in the ditch and die at the hands of the person she had long expected.
Lin Qingjun snorted coldly, "Da Tao, I also want to ask you why you are doing this? Why do you do this?"
Lin Qingjun knew who the masked woman in front of him was without even looking.
It's funny to say that Da Tao was once a slave in Qijun Courtyard. Her aunt treated her like a sister. When Qi made things difficult for her and beat her to a pulp, it was her aunt who knelt in Jianjia Courtyard and begged the lady to save her.
If it weren't for her aunt, she would have died more than ten years earlier. How could she have the good life she has now?
But she didn't understand why she would turn around and kill her aunt when she was so kind to her? She didn't understand why a person's heart could become so terrible?
It would be fine if he didn't know how to repay the kindness, but instead he turned evil into evil?
She didn't understand, hadn't the world become like this anymore?
Da Tao covered the wound on her abdomen tightly. She smiled, and the blood in her mouth was revealed when she smiled.
The wound in her abdomen caused her blood to flow back up, making her already gloomy and terrifying expression even more terrifying.
Lin Qingjun saw that her face was filled with only horror and no regrets at all. Her heart sank again. If her aunt knew that the person she had saved was like this, she wondered if she would regret saving him.
Da Tao asked, "Why should I do this? Second Miss, do you want me to become like Xiao Tao, taking care of your shit and piss, and gathering information for you? And also to be implicated for no reason because of you?"
Lin Qingjun sneered, "Taking out shit and piss?"
She was a servant, wasn't it her duty to do these things for her master? Besides, when had she ever been asked to clean up her mistress's excrement and urine? Her mistress was born in poverty and had been a servant for over a decade, a lowly servant who poured nightshades. She knew the hardships of being a servant, and so, she tried not to bother others, doing all the rough work herself.
"Da Tao, don't you feel guilty when you say that? Not only did my aunt not ask you to do these things, but when you were injured, it was my aunt who stayed by your bedside and took care of you."
Lin Qingjun's heart became even colder.
Da Tao spitted, "Bah! Do I really need her to take care of me? If she hadn't displeased Madam, why would she take her anger out on me?"
"Liu Xing is pregnant. I thought she could go from being a concubine to a noble concubine, but who would have thought that she would actually dance in front of the lady?"
"Madam is not pregnant yet, but she has already had a concubine? How can this save Madam's dignity?"
"It's okay if she's stupid, but why did she have to implicate me?"
Da Tao's eyes became distant, and she remembered what happened back then. Oh no, it should be said that she had never forgotten what happened back then.
The whip fell on her body, cutting like a knife. She felt like she was about to die. She didn't want to be beaten again and didn't want to be reduced to this state.
So, she also figured it out.
"If I, Da Tao, don't want to be beaten to death, I have no choice but to stay by the Madam's side and work for her. Only then can I live a good life."
"Following a mere concubine, how can I ever make a name for myself?"
"The result is just as I expected. Ever since I started working for Madam, I've been eating meat, drinking wine, wearing silk, and even the hairpin I wear on my head is worth ten taels."
Da Tao looked at her coldly.
"Look at you. You're the second young lady of the mansion, yet you're wearing a silver hairpin? If I'm not mistaken, that bitch Liu Xing gave it to you at your coming-of-age ceremony, right?"
Liu Xing is her aunt.
Da Tao's sarcasm intensified. "Second Miss, you are obviously half a year older than the eldest, yet you want the eldest to be superior to you, to be the eldest sister, while you can only be second? Second Miss, don't you feel uncomfortable at all?"
"Also, they clearly knew your birthday and your coming-of-age ceremony, but they acted dumb as if they knew nothing."
"As a woman, and on such an important day, yet they treat you with such disdain. Second Miss, do you really not have any complaints in your heart?"
She doesn't believe it.
A girl's coming-of-age banquet is not just a birthday celebration; it is a way to tell people outside that their family has a daughter who has reached the age of marriage, and anyone interested can come and propose marriage.
How many women have arranged marriages and found good partners after their coming-of-age banquets? The master and his wife never mentioned such an important matter. They really didn't think their daughter existed.
The more Qijunyuan acted like this, the more she felt that it was right for her to leave. Otherwise, she would be like Xiaotao now, lowly enough to be bullied.
Whenever she saw Xiao Tao being targeted, having rotten vegetable leaves thrown at her, or even being denied hot water, she felt extremely happy and felt that her work at Qijunyuan was a stain on her life.
I have worked hard for my wife for the past ten years just to wash away this stain.
When Lin Qingjun heard this, he chuckled.
"A heartless person is always heartless. Da Tao, do you know why my mother danced in front of the lady?"
"That's for you."
As soon as the words fell, Da Tao looked up suddenly in disbelief.
"Oh, Second Miss, you're talking nonsense. Are you trying to make me regret what I've done over the past decade?"
Do you want her to regret leaving Qijunyuan?
She won't believe it.
However, when she saw the strong sarcasm on Lin Qingjun's face, she could no longer laugh.
