"I'm cold... I'm really cold... Please, give me a quilt... Just one quilt..."
On a night brightly lit by snow, in the small shabby house next to the stable, Li Qingluo's face, whiter than snow, was revealed through the wide gap.
Her face was thin and sharp, shriveled and unrecognizable, with a faint light in her eyes. She looked pleadingly at the servants outside and stretched out her hand for help.
"Bah! What a lowly creature! Do you think you have the right to use a quilt to keep warm?"
The old servant raised his foot and kicked Li Qingluo's hand to the side, causing Li Qingluo to scream in pain.
The few people who came to watch the fun were amused by this scene and laughed out loud.
"Look at her now. Even she's the true blood of our General's Mansion. How can blood compare to sixteen years of true companionship and the deep, true love that comes from it?"
"Alas, it's such a pity for our eldest daughter... On the first day this bitch returned home, she actually... actually passed away after leaving behind a heartless letter."
"She chose to self-immolate. How terrified must she be to do such a cruel thing, harming herself and causing such great distress to the entire government."
When talking about the past, several servants burst into tears.
Perhaps he was getting angrier the more he thought about it, so an old servant picked up a stick beside him and reached into the small shabby house through the gap, wanting to teach Li Qingluo a lesson again.
Someone held her back and said, "After all, she is now the second daughter of the General's Mansion. Don't let her really kill her."
"Oh, just kill her, what else can you do? Do you think that the Madam, the Master, and the Young Master will have mercy on her now? She should have died long ago. On the day the Young Lady died, she should have been buried with her! Poor Young Lady..."
"Yes. Ever since the eldest daughter passed away, the mistress has been in a trance, and the master often sighs. The eldest son has become even more moody... Isn't all this caused by this incident involving the real and fake daughter?"
But in the end, the servant didn't poke the stick in randomly, but they threw the smelly horse manure in and hit Li Qingluo all over.
Then, everyone dispersed and left, completely ignoring Li Qingluo's original intention of going to great lengths to call people here.
And she originally just wanted a quilt to keep out the cold in the house...
The snow outside the house is still falling.
The horse's panting sound gradually quieted down.
Li Qingluo lay quietly on the cold wooden board, and could only pull out some straw with great effort and cover himself with it perfunctorily.
Two days ago, she was slapped to the ground by her own brother Li Kechuan just because she accidentally broke a teacup left by Li Qingzhu.
Then, under the pretext of wanting to teach her a lesson and make her remember it, he had her locked up in this stinking little hut next to the stable.
Last night, the first heavy snow of this cold winter came quietly.
She couldn't stand the cold anymore, so she wanted a quilt.
However, these servants also hated her because of Li Qingzhu, and used this as an excuse to humiliate her.
Li Qingluo felt that his life was nothing but a joke.
If she had known this would happen, she should not have returned to the Li family.
But obviously, she is the true blood of the Li family... Obviously, she is her parents' biological daughter and her brother's biological sister.
But in their hearts and eyes, there is only Li Qingzhu, their daughter and sister.
Sixteen years ago, the midwife who delivered the baby quietly exchanged her granddaughter's identity with her own, then took her back to the mountains and raised her like a pig or a dog until she was four or five years old.
From then on, Li Qingluo became a slave and servant. He didn't even have enough food to eat or sleep for a full night. He served their family day and night.
Until someone from the Li family suddenly came looking for him.
Her true identity was revealed, and she turned out to be a rich girl whose identity was switched!
Li Qingluo found a glimmer of joy in his confusion, and was taken back to Jinling City with full expectations.
Even the Li family did not pursue the midwife's family's original behavior, nor did they think deeply about it.
However, just as she saw her parents standing at the gate of the Li Mansion, before she even got close, she heard panicked shouts from inside the mansion: "Oh no! The eldest girl has set herself on fire! The eldest girl has set herself on fire!"
Li Qingzhu left behind a suicide letter, saying that because her identity had been revealed, she was deeply aware of her sins and that she owed too much to the true bloodline of the Li family. She should have made room and let everything return to its original state, but she couldn't bear to part with the deep affection of her parents and brother, fearing that they would no longer love her, so she would rather die at this moment...
Li Qingzhu committed suicide by burning herself to death, and dozens of houses in the Li Mansion were burned down.
Li Qingluo had just returned. She looked at the charred ruins and the corpse in a daze, not understanding why this happened.
Before she could react, Li Kechuan, blinded by anger, slapped her hard in the face, and Li Qingluo's mouth was instantly full of blood.
"It's all because of you! If you hadn't come back, Zhu'er wouldn't be so depressed and wouldn't have died! Why weren't you the one who died?!"
Although her parents pulled Li Kechuan away, the way they looked at her was filled with complexity, hesitation, and even unbearable pain.
Li Qingluo finally understood that they regretted it...
Do you regret finding her?
From that day on, Li Qingluo began to atone for Li Qingzhu's death.
Everyone blamed her for Li Qingzhu's death.
A'niang settled her in a very remote and cramped little house, which was very hot in the summer and very cold in the winter.
The servants in the mansion all looked down on her and secretly called her a jinx, a disaster, and a vicious woman.
