After dressing as a villain's ex-wife, she went crazy for whitewashing

After meeting Xiao Yunheng, she counted the money and regretted endlessly: "It would be fine if I didn't let you go."

She thought that getting rid of Tao Jinshuang would be the smoothest thing, but she never expected that she would jump over the wall in a hurry and kidnap Mother Lu.

"It's okay, Tao Jinshuang still wants to leave safely with the money, your mother will be fine." Xiao Yunheng comforted her.

2000 taels of silver is not a small sum, and it was a lot spent in Dongping City, almost not enough.

But fortunately, Lu Xiyue will give Xiao Yunheng a lot of money every month, so it's just right to make it together.

Seeing that half an hour was approaching, Tao Jinshuang restrained Mother Lu, pulled out the belt and tied him to the pillar, then quickly went back to the room and took a belt to tie it on.

She wiped off the blood-stained pearl hairpin and put it on her head again, then took out a dagger from nowhere.

The candlelight was flickering, and the dagger glowed with bursts of cold light, but it couldn't resist the chilling heart.

"What are you looking at me like that for?" Tao Jinshuang's expression darkened, impatiently stared at by Lu's mother.

"If your parents know that you have become like this—"

"Don't mention my parents to me!"

The pretty girl thrust her knife into the table, her black pupils erupted with terrifying hostility, which distorted her face.

Mother Lu suddenly silenced.

Tao Jinshuang bent her lips, pulled out the dagger, and cast a sinister glance at Mother Lu: "If it wasn't for your family, why would we end up living in Beidi, and how could our parents die."

"However, your family has a prosperous life. My parents are hungry and cold. I help them work all day. I am fed up with this kind of life."

"I'm the daughter of the Tao family, a well-known talented woman in Beijing, and I don't do menial work for others."

Mother Lu heard her hoarse voice, which seemed to be insane, and inexplicably came up with an astonishing guess.

Perhaps, there was another story behind her sister's death.

"Are your parents you..."

Mother Lu hoped that she was just frightened and made random guesses.

Tao Jinshuang showed her a bright smile: "Auntie, you are quite smart."

Lu's mother blinked, and after a moment of stupefaction, her eyes turned red.

"You are crazy, they are your own parents, how dare you, how dare you!"

"Why don't I dare, they are sick, infected with wind and cold, and they will die soon, I am just helping them out."

Tao Jinshuang walked over with the dagger in hand, with madness at the end of her scarlet eyes: "They are lying on the bed alive and suffering, and I am suffering too. Auntie, what I said is not right."

Mother Lu didn't know how to refute her, but the only thing she was sure of was that Tao Jinshuang was crazy.

"I just used this dagger, and it pierced into their chests. Aunt, you don't know, they bleed a lot, and it stained the quilt red."

Thoughts flowed, as if returning to that day.

The sallow and thin woman couldn't see the appearance of a noble lady in the past, her face was cracked with cold, and the middle-aged man beside her couldn't see the appearance of a third-rank official in the past.

The two of them were both lying on the couch, and it was difficult to even move their fingers.

She went out to work day after day, and died in the snow several times for a few copper coins.

She sold all her jewelry, expensive clothes, and bought soup and medicine.

These were not enough at all, and the wind and cold between the two of them became heavier and heavier.

It was snowing heavily that day, and the dilapidated thatched cottage was crumbling by the wind. She went out to buy soup and medicine, and met two idle men, and was almost humiliated. Fortunately, the dagger hidden in her body played a role.

When she got home, she boiled the medicine, but saw the frostbite on her mother's arm.

When her hands were shaking, the dagger fell down, and there was blood of those two idle men on it. At that moment, an astonishing thought flashed in her mind, like wildfire in spring, which could no longer be suppressed.

Reason told her that absolutely cannot be the case.

Until my mother's hands trembled, she couldn't hold the soup bowl and sprinkled it on her body.

But in an instant, anger and hatred intertwined welled up in her heart, she didn't hesitate any more, picked up the dagger, and stabbed it down.

The sight of the girl caught in the memory was covered by a blinding red.

"Tao Jinshuang."

Lu Xiyue and Xiao Yunheng pushed the door open, and suddenly pulled her back from her thoughts.

"I brought the money, let my mother go." Lu Xiyue spread out the 2000 taels of silver notes.

Tao Jinshuang stretched out his hand, motioning for her to hand it over.

Just as Lu Xiyue was about to step forward, she took the bank note from her hand with her crossed hand.

"Husband and wife are deeply in love, but I don't want you to give it away." Tao Jinshuang lifted the dagger up, and the sharp blade brushed the wound on Mother Lu's neck, causing her to shudder from the pain.

Lu Xiyue had no choice but to take the banknote back and send it to Tao Jinshuang.

She roughly counted, and there were a total of 100 banknotes in denominations of [-] taels, which were exactly the same.

Tao Jinshuang untied Mother Lu's belt and held her all the way to the door, "Where's the carriage?"

"outside."

The dew was deeper, and mist had already risen in the air.

All the way to the door, Tao Jinshuang saw the carriage as expected, heaved a sigh of relief, put away the dagger, and pushed Mother Lu violently.

Supporting Mother Lu, looking up, Tao Jinshuang had already jumped into the carriage, the whip fell on the horse, and ran out quickly.

Mother Lu staggered, and despite being supported by her, her legs were weak and she fell to the ground.

"Mom, it's okay, it's already okay." Lu Xiyue patted her on the back to comfort her.

Mother Lu sobbed and raised her head, with tears of guilt on her face: "Yue'er, your aunt and uncle were killed by their own daughters."

"Mom, what did you say?" Lu Xiyue didn't understand.

"Just now, Tao Jinshuang told me that she killed your aunt and uncle with her own hands." Mother Lu covered her face and wept.

Under the hazy moonlight, Lu Xiyue gasped.

In the memory of the original owner, Tao Jinshuang's parents treated her very well, holding her like a jewel in the palm of their hand.

"Go ahead."

A reminder of youth concern.

The two helped Mother Lu into the house, and healed the wound on Mother Lu's neck.

Lu's mother was in a state of confusion and couldn't breathe under the weight of guilt.

"If it wasn't for the accident in our Duke's mansion, your aunt and the others wouldn't be implicated. In the final analysis, we were the ones who killed them."

Lu Xiyue didn't agree with her thoughts: "Mother, it's not our Duke's House that harmed people, but the people who framed our Duke's House."

No matter what the crime is, the people behind it are targeting far more than their Lu family. The Tao family and the Lu family are brothers-in-law, and leaving any party behind will cause endless troubles for them.

To cut the weeds is to get rid of the roots.

The ransacked Prince Ning's Mansion is the grass, while the Lu family and the Tao family are the roots.

At the same time, Tao Jinshuang held the 2000 taels of silver in his pocket, and did not dare to stop for a while while driving the carriage.

She looked at the gradually approaching intersection under the night, with great joy on her face.

However, an arrow rides on the dew, and precisely wipes into the horse's belly.

The painful horse lifted its front hooves and neighed, then fell down suddenly. Tao Jinshuang was unsteady, and fell along with the fallen carriage.

She saw a group of people approaching not far away.

Being crushed in the carport, she was in a daze when she heard the man's cold voice.

"Bring people back."
