Chapter 298 Auntie is also for you
Entering Qinghuiyuan almost exhausted all the courage Aunt Lin had in her life.
But if she doesn't go, Aunt Yao will not let the Sixth Miss go.
Aunt Lin couldn't help but think of Aunt Yao's cruel face, threatening her without any concealment: "Aunt Lin, I'm not afraid to tell you that I have noble people behind me to help me. The position of the mistress of the Lu family will be mine sooner or later. We are already people in the same boat. If you tell the truth, I will naturally ensure that you and your daughter will be rich and prosperous for the rest of your life. Otherwise, since I can plot against the young master, I can also make sure that Lu Qiao is killed without a burial place."
Aunt Yao regards the eldest young master as a thorn in her side. As long as she gets rid of him, the Lu family will only have Lu Xiao as their son. However, she does not even let Qiao Jingru go.
Aunt Lin was shocked by Aunt Yao's cruelty and felt afraid of her.
Yutian remained silent as he helped Aunt Lin into the house. His face was pale and his eyes were filled with anxiety and fear.
My aunt teamed up with Aunt Yao to plot against the eldest young lady. If this matter gets out of hand, will my aunt be able to escape with any good outcome?
When the time comes, won't Aunt Yao ask Aunt to take the blame?
Aunt Lin had thought about this, but if she didn't do it, she would not be able to protect the Sixth Miss.
If Aunt Yao was still the same Aunt Yao, Aunt Lin might not be afraid of her, but she had a noble person behind her. Didn't you see that her elder brother Yao Kun came to Beijing to be an official? The eldest young master was deceived by her and even his life was in danger. Aunt Lin really didn't dare to take risks with Lu Qiao.
I just hope that Aunt Yao can keep her promise and promise Sixth Miss a lifetime of wealth and prosperity.
Aunt Lin lay down on the couch and waved to Yutian: "Go away, I want to be alone."
"Yes." Yutian bowed and took his leave.
Aunt Lin clenched her fists, closed her eyes, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.
She knew in her heart that letting Qiao Jingru save Lu Chao would undoubtedly be like walking into a tiger's mouth...
Qiao Jingru finally managed to scrape together 100,000 taels, packed the things in a large box, and moved to the courtyard gate with Liangchen without disturbing others. Liangchen had already arranged a carriage there, and the servant driving the carriage was the one Qiao Jingru brought into the Lu family as a dowry, so she was more trustworthy.
The servant didn't ask any more questions and helped to load the things into the carriage. Qiao Jingru sent Liangchen back and told anyone who asked about it to say that she was out of the house on business.
Liangchen felt uneasy and insisted on going with Qiao Jingru.
Qiao Jingru refused.
Lu Qiao came to have lunch with Aunt Lin, but when she entered the Plum Courtyard, she found it was quiet.
When he entered the room, he saw Aunt Lin lying on the couch and called out, "Aunt."
Aunt Lin opened her eyes and smiled faintly: "Qiao'er is here, what's the matter?"
"I'm here to have lunch with Auntie. Are you feeling unwell? Why do you look so bad?" Lu Qiao sat next to Auntie Lin and asked with concern.
Aunt Lin looked at the sun outside the window and said, "It's already noon now. Aunt is fine."
Having said that, she sat up.
Lu Qiao looked at Aunt Lin's forehead covered with sweat and looked worried.
It's not the hottest time yet, and my aunt's room is not stuffy. How come I'm sweating so much just lying down?
"Aunt, let me call a doctor to take your pulse."
Aunt Lin looked at her daughter's worried face, reached out and touched her, full of love: "Aunt is not sick, don't worry."
She had done such a bad thing and felt extremely guilty. Not only could she not eat lunch, but even lying down felt as if all her strength had been drained away and she felt weak all over.
Lu Qiao frowned, obviously not believing that Aunt Lin was not sick.
"Auntie, how can your daughter not worry about you when you are like this?"
"It's nothing, really. I was just thinking about something, so..."
Lu Qiao poured her a glass of water and asked, "What is it that is worthy of your concern?"
Aunt Lin took a sip of water and looked at Lu Qiao hesitantly.
Although her daughter is young, she has had her own ideas since she was young. No matter what they do, they always discuss it with each other, and Aunt Lin is someone who is willing to listen to her daughter's opinions.
"Aunt, is there anything that we can't talk about between mother and daughter?"
Lu Qiao chuckled and joked.
The girl was wearing a pink plum blossom jacket and a flowing skirt with densely woven pomegranate flowers. Her tender little face was pretty and charming, her skin was as smooth and delicate as jade, with a lustrous luster, her nose was straight and her lips were rosy.
The Lu sisters all have beautiful looks. Even Lu Qiao, the most ordinary of them, is a great beauty when she goes out.
Aunt Lin held Lu Qiao's hand, thought for a moment, and told her about Lu Chao.
After she finished speaking, Lu Qiao stood up suddenly and looked at Aunt Lin in disbelief as if she had been struck by lightning.
"Auntie, are you crazy?"
Lu Qiao almost yelled, with a hint of fear in her voice.
Aunt Lin jumped up and covered her mouth: "Ancestor, keep your voice down."
Lu Qiao stared at Aunt Lin with wide eyes. There was shock, uneasiness, and a hint of anger in her dark eyes.
Aunt Lin felt uncomfortable when Lu Qiao saw her and looked away guiltily.
"Auntie...it's also for you. Auntie Yao is a lunatic, we can't afford to offend her."
"Since Auntie said she was crazy, why did you keep her company? Do we have a good life if we destroy our eldest brother and sister-in-law? Even if Father is disappointed with our eldest brother, can he let him die in vain? When the truth is revealed, will Yao come forward and confess that she was the one who did it?"
Lu Qiao almost shouted when she finished speaking.
She was jealous of Lu Xiang being loved by her grandmother and valued by her father. She always thought that it would be a great pleasure to see Lu Xiang fall from the clouds to the mud. Naturally, she didn't like her sister-in-law who had a close relationship with Lu Xiang.
But even so, Lu Qiao only dared to feel resentment in her heart and did not dare to really plot against anyone.
What's more, the eldest brother has never been bad to her.
Aunt Lin's face turned pale and blue due to Lu Qiao's yelling. She was not a vicious person to begin with, and now she was extremely panic-stricken.
"What if I don't listen to Aunt Yao? She won't let you go. Instead of letting her deal with you, you might as well deal with someone else." Aunt Lin's body swayed slightly, her eyes turned black, and she almost couldn't stand.
Lu Qiao bit her lip tightly. After listening to Aunt Lin's words, she couldn't blame her own mother.
My aunt's selfishness is only for herself.
But Lu Qiao could not accept helping Yao to plot against her elder brother and sister-in-law.
She stomped her feet, turned around and ran away angrily.
Aunt Lin wanted to call her, but after thinking about it, she let her do it. Qiao'er is young, so it is inevitable that she cannot accept it for a while, but it will be fine once she figures it out.
Lu Qiao came out of the Plum Courtyard with a grim look on her face. Seeing this, her maid Qiuying hurriedly chased after her.
"Sixth Miss, what's wrong?" Qiuying asked with concern.
Lu Qiao bit her lip and remained silent, her whole body emitting an irritable aura. She walked around the garden aimlessly, her mind as confused as if it had been swept by a strong wind.
Auntie is afraid of Auntie Yao's methods, but doesn't she want to think about the outcome after the incident?
My grandmother and father will never forgive my aunt.
