Li Chaojing turned around and raised his hand to slap Li Qing, but Qu rushed forward to protect him without thinking.
"Master! Luo'er, Luo'er is just very sad. She didn't mean to say those words..."
Qu told herself that she didn't want Li Qingluo to be beaten to death.
After all, Luo'er is going to marry into the Qu family.
Li Chaojing threw his hands down angrily and glared at Li Qingluo: "You are truly lawless. Do you even have any respect for hierarchy?!"
"I am your biological father, yet you are so reckless and slanderous. If it weren't for your grandmother's serious illness, I would have beaten you to death, you disobedient daughter!"
Li Qingluo pulled Qu away.
She stared at Li Chaojing and said word by word: "If you have the guts, then come and hit me. Am I wrong to scold you?"
"Grandmother was poisoned in the General's Mansion and is now critically ill. Instead of investigating the truth and seeking to bring back the imperial physician from the palace to treat her, you let one of your lackeys decide Grandmother's life. How can I accept your will?!"
"With me, Li Qingluo, here today, you won't succeed!"
Mrs. Pei shed tears silently.
"Luo'er... Grandmother's love for you was not in vain..."
Li Chaojing was shocked when he heard that his mother could still speak.
He rushed forward again, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Mother!? Are you really still able to speak?"
Doctor Jiang hurriedly said, "Hurry! The old lady is having a last gasp!"
Li Chaojing quickly grasped Madam Pei's hands, his face filled with anxiety. "No! Mother, I'm Jing'er. Luo'er is right. I must go and get the imperial physician right away!"
"Mother, do you have anything to say first? Jing'er is listening."
Qu also stepped forward.
"Mother, you can tell me anything you want. Your daughter-in-law and the master will definitely obey your orders and take good care of Luo'er..."
Li Kechuan also moved forward: "Grandma, Chuan'er is right here..."
Madam Pei struggled to get up.
Li Chaojing quickly reached out to support her, and the sincerity in his eyes at this moment did not seem fake.
Old Madam Pei finally stood up halfway, raised her hand tremblingly, and used all her strength to slap Li Chaojing hard!
“Snap—”
There was a crisp sound, which could be heard outside the house.
Li Chaojing: "Mother, mother?"
Madam Pei: "Do you really want me to die so badly?!? After all, I carried you for ten months and gave birth to you. If it wasn't for saving your father, how could I have the heart to abandon you?!"
"You were completely led astray by a young woman all these years. This is the thing I regret most in my life!"
"You are heartless, ruthless, and unfeeling. You can't even show your sincerity to your own daughter and mother. I really wish I could have strangled you to death when I gave birth to you!!"
"What do you want to hear from me? What else do you want from me!?"
"Li Chaojing, get out of here!!"
Li Chaojing knelt on the ground: "My...mother..."
Complex emotions surged in his eyes, as if he had really been awakened a little by his mother's scolding.
But he has come this far, how can he turn back?
Just when Li Chaojing was about to push her harder, there was another burst of crying outside the house.
"Mother--!!"
"Grandma—woooooo…"
"Mother, your sons and daughters-in-law are here to see you off—"
Are the people from the second and third rooms here?! ?
How dare they all show up at this time! ?
It turned out that during the chaos just now, Li Qingluo asked Nanny Deng to act according to the situation. Nanny Deng saw that she could not stop Li Chaojing's family, so she simply went to push people from the second and third rooms over.
The people in the second and third rooms had already felt that the atmosphere was not right tonight.
Everyone was still waiting and watching, but then Nanny Deng shouted that the old lady was dying, so how could the people in the second and third rooms sit still?
Even Aunt Lou and Aunt Liu came running over and cried outside the house.
Li Chaojing's face turned dark on the spot.
"Don't let them in!"
Li Chaojing shouted softly, but the whole yard was filled with Mrs. Pei's people. How could they possibly listen to Li Chaojing?
Even though he is the head of the family.
But the maids are not considered to be from the general's mansion.
Li Qingluo shouted, "Let them all come in!"
"Father, you are grandmother's son, but aren't second and third uncles also sons? Bastards are still sons!"
"You want to hear what your grandmother has to say, but can't they listen to it?"
"Or is it that you, Father, have something on your mind and don't want them to come in?!"
Li Qingluo gave an order and the maids immediately released the person.
The already crowded room was instantly filled with darkness.
When Li Chaojing saw Jingci Hall and realized that she, a granddaughter, could make the decision, she instantly became furious. She stood up and glared at Li Qingluo, wishing she could go up and strangle her to unconsciousness!
Li Qingluo was not afraid of him, but took a step forward.
She stared at Li Chaojing, wondering if he dared to attack her again in front of her grandmother.
The situation was at a stalemate. Madam Pei turned around and spat out another mouthful of black blood.
"grandmother!"
When Li Qingluo saw this scene, he rushed forward with his heart pounding.
All the fierceness he had just pretended to be disappeared in an instant, and his face was filled with tears falling continuously.
"Old lady..."
Old Madam Pei knew that among the people in this room, apart from the old servants who had followed her for decades, only her granddaughter was sincere.
She pointed outside and yelled at all the other people with the surname Li, "Get out! Get out of here! I'd rather die than see you again!"
There are so many people in this room that even if Li Chaojing wanted that thing again, he couldn't ask in front of the people from the second and third rooms.
