Chapter 52: I'm doing this for your own good
Da Tao is overjoyed.
She was not afraid of Liu Xing speaking, but she was afraid that she would not speak.
Didn't this mouth spare her? Thinking back to the bowl of safflower medicine, it was just like that. Afterwards, the master was furious and wanted to kill her to replace the aborted male fetus.
She had no choice but to ask her to speak a few good words for her in front of the master, saying that she wanted to drink the safflower medicine herself and she was just making this trip for her to help her avoid the disaster.
At the beginning, she was just showing weakness in front of her and looking pitiful. She really didn't expect that she would actually forgive her and the master didn't pursue the matter.
From that moment on, she knew that this woman's heart was very weak, so weak that she could get over it by just crying and begging.
It was like this last time, and it is like this this time as well.
Da Tao was overjoyed. If they really escaped this time, she would never give them a chance to survive next time.
Don't blame her for being cruel. In this world, you can't survive without being cruel. People with soft hearts like them, mother and daughter, will be bullied to death, won't they?
She turned around and smiled triumphantly at Lin Qingjun.
Look, so what if she stabbed her, so what if she wanted her dead, in the end, didn't she still easily dodge it?
"Da Tao, this time, did you intend to kill me, or did the Madam order you to do so?"
At this moment, Aunt Liu spoke.
What?
Da Tao was a little stunned, not understanding why she asked this. Besides, what difference did it make? Wouldn't the result be the same if she wanted to kill her or if the lady ordered her to kill her?
However, her eyes turned cunningly. Would she be spared if she said it was the lady's order?
Aunt Liu suddenly smiled and helped her up with both hands. Just like she did back then, she gently lifted up the strand of hair that had fallen on her forehead.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. You know I've always been soft-hearted towards you."
"Also, I've told you countless times not to style your hair like that. Dreadlocks are for prostitutes. Even though we're slaves, we're still women from respectable families. How could we behave like that?"
Da Tao frowned and looked unhappy.
"Liu Xing, I'm not young anymore. You don't need to care about me. Whether I wear my hair in a bun or not is my business."
She said nonchalantly, "Killing you was naturally my idea. Madam didn't say she wanted to kill you. She just told me to destroy your and Lin Qingjun's looks."
Yes, that’s what the lady said, but she felt that keeping her in the world would be a disaster after all, so instead of disfiguring her, it would be better to give them a quick death.
She was doing this for their own good. How would a woman with a disfigured face live in the future? It would be better to die quickly than to live in pain.
"Liu Xing, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you shouldn't have challenged Madam. I told you to kneel before Madam and serve her, but you refused. You insist on being the best?"
"Look at you, haven't you suffered enough?"
"You are the best embroiderer in this mansion. Everything you embroider comes alive. Just once the master praised it, the lady started thinking about you."
"If I hadn't been quick enough to break your hand, you would have been dead."
"Liu Xing, I saved your life. I'm your savior. You have to be grateful to me, okay?"
The more Da Tao spoke, the more excited and proud she became, and she even started to give her orders.
"Liu Xing, why are you still standing here like an idiot? I was hurt so badly by your daughter, shouldn't you seek justice for me?"
"I, I can't see clearly. I feel a little dizzy. Liu Xing, quickly, help me back to your room and call a doctor for me. Remember to use the best medicine for wound healing."
She hadn't lived enough, she didn't want to die yet, she held on to Liu Xing tightly.
But why was this bitch still standing there as if she hadn't heard anything? Was she stupid, or did she really want to see her die?
However, Da Tao did not notice that Aunt Liu's face had turned cold. When she said that it was her own idea to kill them, her originally friendly, gentle and kind eyes were gone, replaced by cold and ruthless.
When Lin Qingjun saw this, he also felt strange.
Auntie? She's changed.
Aunt Liu supported her and said to her, "Okay, okay, okay, Da Tao, you are indeed my good sister. I forgive you for breaking my hand and for losing my child, but I cannot forgive you for killing my daughter."
Aunt Liu smiled, but her smile was uglier than crying.
"Da Tao, I regard you as my sister. Ever since I came into the mansion, all I've thought about is that we sisters will depend on each other until we can scrape together enough money to redeem ourselves and get out."
"I was thinking, let's find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, build a thatched house, raise a few chickens and ducklings, and grow some vegetables. Not much, just enough for us to eat."
"It seems not bad for us to live our lives in peace and quiet."
However, something unexpected happened the day she was sent to the master's bed.
"Hehe, in your eyes, Auntie is a master, and it is the beginning of a good life, but in my eyes, Auntie's life is even lower than that of a slave."
I, a servant, may still be able to leave the house one day, but as for a concubine, once she becomes a concubine, she will be a concubine for life. Once she gives birth to a child, even the child will not be able to hold his head up.
She didn't want to be like that, but she thought that she had stolen her good thing. She would accept it all if she blamed her. She was fine with whatever she did, but she couldn't do anything to her good girl, not even touch a hair on her.
"Da Tao, don't meet me again in your next life. I don't want to meet you again either."
"Let's just leave it at that."
What?
Before Da Tao could react, her body suddenly stopped, her whole body stiffened, and her eyes looked a little incredible.
Bu.
Buzz.
Aunt Liu was still in the same posture, holding Da Tao's shoulder with one hand. She stood there without moving, and her expression did not change except for the change, but in a corner where no one could see.
She didn't know how many times she stabbed Da Tao. Every stab was fatal and pierced her heart. She didn't give her a chance to live.
He didn't stop until a pool of blood formed at her feet and Da Tao's body went limp.
"Aunt?"
Lin Qingjun was startled and immediately rushed forward. She wanted to get closer, but the sadness in her aunt made her stand three steps away. She gasped. She didn't expect that her aunt had such a side?
Aunt Liu's distant gaze finally focused. She looked at her daughter, who was prettier than her and half a head taller than her, and she smiled.
"My dear, are you scared? Don't be afraid, Auntie will protect you."
Lin Qingjun shook her head desperately. She looked at her aunt and shed tears of heartache. No, she was not afraid. She was just heartbroken and sad.
She rushed over and hugged her aunt's trembling body.
She must be scared too. This was her first time killing someone. She was such a soft-hearted person, someone who wouldn't even step on an ant to death, but now someone killed someone to protect her.
"Auntie, I'm not afraid."
She gently took the knife from her hand.
