The daughter of the first wife is a black lotus, reborn and remarried to kill

"me……"

What was going on? How did I end up in the same dilemma that my mother had been in?

The former is disrespectful to the mother, which is unfilial; the latter is disrespectful to the father, which is even more unfilial. Now I can't recognize either of them!

But she quickly reacted, pointing at Yu Luo and saying, "You must have teamed up with outsiders to frame me. The bracelet in your hand must be a bribe from my sister to let you frame me without any evidence!"

Yu Luo gave her a cold look and knelt down in front of Li Zhengkang and Li Qingqian, "Master, Third Miss, I did not frame Fourth Miss. I have witnesses."

"Bring it up."

"Yes."

Yu Luo hurried to the inner hall and came back with a little girl.

Li Shuyue was suddenly shocked. How could she have forgotten this person? Yesterday, she yelled at her for staying at Jinyuyuan without informing Li Qingqian.

The girl knelt down with Yu Luo and said loudly, "Master, yesterday the fourth young lady said angrily that she wanted to stay in the Jinyu Courtyard. I reminded her to tell the third young lady first. But the fourth young lady refused to give in. Not only did she hit me with a hairpin, she also said that she was staying in the Jinyu Courtyard. Did she need to tell the third young lady?"

Yu Luo also raised her head and said to Li Zhengkang with a stern face, "The Fourth Miss ordered me to stay outside the Jinyu Courtyard, and said that if I fainted, I should be woken up by pouring a bucket of cold water on me. Then the Fourth Miss walked into the yard, and it was this little girl beside me who came forward to ask about it. The Fourth Miss was so angry that she pulled out a hairpin and hit her. The wound on the child's face is the best physical evidence."

Li Zhengkang followed her words and looked at the little girl's scratched face. Although the bleeding had stopped, it had not yet formed a scab.

Li Qingqian took a look and said to Li Zhengkang, "Father, a few days ago, An Ning told her daughter to be careful not to get hurt these days. In winter, wounds don't scab easily. If they are exposed to the cold wind, it will hurt like a knife. This wound is on the face. Fourth sister is really cruel."

Seeing that Li Zhengkang was so angry that he couldn't speak, she wanted to add fuel to the fire, "I saw that Fourth Sister had ordered people to look for the bracelet for a long time, why haven't they found it yet? Why don't you describe the appearance of the bracelet you lost so that it will be easier for the servants to find it."

Li Shuyue lowered her head and blushed. The bracelet in Li Qingqian's hand was the one she was looking for. Now, if she wanted to get rid of the label of thief, she had to describe what the bracelet looked like.

But what should she say at that moment?

Li Zhengkang really admires this useless daughter. She can't beat A Qian every time, but she still insists on fighting others. She is so stupid.

"You stole my sister's property first, and then ignored my father's orders several times. Since you like to go to Jinyuyuan so much, I think there is no need to keep your Shuangyueju anymore."

Li Qingqian frowned slightly and said, "Father, this is not good, right? Shuangyueju was originally named after my sister."

"Then take down the plaque!" Li Zhengkang looked at Li Shuyue angrily, "Move all your stuff back to Jinyuyuan before dark. If you haven't moved it by dark, I'll smash it all!"

After saying that, he left in anger.

Li Qingqian glanced at the people kneeling on the ground and said, "Alright, everyone go about their business. Oh, by the way, Fourth Sister, the weather is very cold now, why not waive Yu Luo's punishment?"

Li Shuyue looked at her like a devil that had just crawled out of hell. She grabbed Yu Luo and threw her to Li Qingqian, "Then take her away quickly. Let her get as far away as possible. Don't let me see her again!"

A dog that betrays its master must never be kept around again.

Li Qingqian raised her eyebrows and said nothing, letting Yun Shang take her people away.

He followed Li Zhengkang with Yunyi.

She took the food box from Yun Yi, moved closer to Li Zhengkang, and said with a smile, "It's almost time for the morning court session. I'm sure Father must be a little hungry. How about using these snacks to fill his stomach first?"

Li Zhengkang stopped and opened the lunch box. Inside were some beautifully prepared snacks.

"Humph," he laughed, "First, you designed to get my stepmother out of the house, and then you led me to catch Shu Yue red-handed, and vacated Shuangyue Residence. After doing all this, you didn't forget to bring snacks to ease the father-daughter relationship between you and me. You really planned it perfectly. Ah Qian, I'm a little curious, what are you going to do next?"

Li Qingqian smiled as she closed the lunch box and stuffed it back into Yunyi's hands, her eyes filled with sarcasm, "Father, you must be joking. In today's world, men are always respected. As women, what else can we do except rely on men's majesty to show off?"

Li Zhengkang shook his head and denied her, "You are not sincere in what you said. It shows that you want to do more than just hide behind a man."

"Li Qingqian, your father wants you to stay smart. If one day you are no longer smart, you will be even more miserable than Li Shuyue inside," Li Zhengkang called her full name for the first time, pointing to the Jinyu Courtyard and said, "Of course, as you said, men are still respected in the world, so you can be smart, but don't be too smart."

Li Qingqian curled her lips and nodded, saying, "My daughter will follow my father's teachings."

Li Zhengkang went to court, and the smile on her face gradually faded.

"Let's go back to Jingyingju. Someone is waiting for us."

Yun Yi pointed to the food box in her hand with some embarrassment, "Miss, the master hasn't eaten yet."

"He wouldn't eat them anyway," Li Qingqian said as if nothing had happened, pulling his cloak closer to himself, "because these snacks are what I had left over from the past two days."

Yun Yi looked at the food box in her hand, her facial features almost twisted into a ball, "Huh?"

*

Quiet Shadow Residence.

Yunchang had already brought people to wait in the main hall.

An was sitting nearby. Seeing Li Qingqian coming back, she hurriedly bowed and took out the box containing the earrings from her sleeve pocket. "I'm here to return the things to the young lady."

Li Qingqian smiled, "Auntie can keep this thing for herself."

An Shi didn't take her politeness for granted, but placed the things on the table beside her with both hands, "I am not a fool, I can calculate the benefits clearly, and I am a long-term person. The young lady helped me to explain her grievances, so I will help you to deliver the pastries to Yu Luo; the young lady gave me the Ruyi lock, so I will wear these earrings to help you. I won't take more of the extra ones."

Li Qingqian smiled and nodded, "Do you want me to find someone to send Auntie off?"

An knew that she shouldn't stay here any longer, and bowed to Li Qingqian again: "It's daytime now, there's no need to see you off. Miss, go ahead and get busy."

After she left, Li Qingqian's mouth corners twitched down and he looked at Yu Luo.

There was a thin layer of sweat on Yu Luo's forehead, probably due to the pain caused by diarrhea.

"Miss," she pleaded in a trembling voice, "I have done as you ordered. Please give me the antidote."

I don’t know what kind of strong poison Miss Song gave her. She was fine last night, but this morning she suddenly started to have cramps in her abdomen.

To the extent that she didn't want to care about the life or death of the fourth lady and only wanted to save her own life, she came to the third lady to ask for the antidote early in the morning. The third lady asked her to put the blame of the mutton-fat jade bracelet on the fourth lady, and she readily agreed.

Yu Luo was beaten, scolded and forced to kneel by Li Shuyue. If An had not come to find her last night, and if she had been stubborn, she would have probably been turned against him long ago.

But just now, when she followed Yun Shang to Jingying Residence, she figured it out. The third lady had deliberately designed this. She had to take the initiative to seek peace with her and break her pride. Only in this way could she feel at ease to cooperate with her.

But the contractions kept coming, and she no longer cared about her pride or loyalty. She just wanted to stay alive.
