Qingmei smiled bitterly when she heard this: "You think too simplistically! Before my mother died, she asked me to live a good life and not think about revenge. She asked me to find my two younger sisters, and she also asked me to be the ancestor of the Han family. Zong vowed not to sacrifice herself to go head-to-head with Dog Officer, otherwise she would not be at peace down there."
Li Yuan was speechless, why was it different from the novel routine she read?
Logically speaking, shouldn't a normal person hate the dog official? Before she dies, she has to drag her children with her and ask them to take revenge, otherwise she won't die in peace or something like that?
Qingmei continued: "But how can I give in? That dog official made my family ruined and homeless. I know that I have to cling to powerful people, but I am just a refugee, and I have offended him again. The county magistrate can’t go anywhere, who dares to take me in?”
"Initially, in order to survive, I married the step-brother of a scholar whose wife died in childbirth while I was hiding. My man's hand was broken less than half a month after we got married, and he never had a chance to have an official career. Later, he found out that it was me and didn't make things difficult for me. He just let me go. At that time, I thought that scholars, who were expected to be admitted to the imperial examination and eventually become officials, could help me, but I never expected that it would be like that. result."
"Later, I was attracted by a big businessman from other places. I thought that although the status of a businessman is low, he has a lot of money and a wide network of contacts. As long as he leaves here, the chance of revenge will be greater in the future. But we haven't left Xinyang yet. At the border of the prefecture, the merchant's goods were seized by the government, saying that they were stolen from the Linfeng County Yamen. Now this needs to be verified before making a decision. "
"The big businessman did have a wide network of contacts. He quickly found out the information and told me that it was the prefect who was making things difficult for me. A businessman values profits. He could not offend the prefect of a prefecture just for me. He made me a man of practical work and a hero. Think about the root cause of my current situation, let me follow the lead, and then gave me some money and left in two days."
"After that, I think whether you are an official or doing business, there will always be people who can't deal with them. I don't know how Qian Lianghui got the prefect to help him. I only know that when I spend all my money, I will squander the merchants The money I left behind finally made its way into the then-prefect Tongzhi’s house. Before I could establish myself there, Tongzhi got into trouble and was demoted. I was lucky, no matter how much I was demoted, as long as I left Xinyang Mansion, I would be fine. There were not so many restrictions. But who knew that the mistress at that time scolded me for using my skin to seduce men, which led to the master being demoted. If I had not been a good citizen, I would have been sold. So before they left, they drove me and the child away. Out."
When Qingmei said this, her eyes were filled with despair and emptiness.
"It was the depth of winter at that time. After he was kicked out, my child caught cold and had a fever all the time. At that time, no medical center was willing to treat my child. I knew why, so I finally found a hospital nearby. I am an honest farmer, and I left all my valuable clothes and my only silver hairpin to them, asking them to help me raise my children. From now on, I will come here every other month and give them money."
"I wanted to take revenge, but I had no choice but to throw myself into the Blue and White Building. I even vaguely expected in my heart that the people who went to that kind of place would be all kinds of monsters, ghosts, and snakes, and they were designated to have better family connections and not fear of power. People. But I am still naive in the end. Even though I am beautiful, I have been married and given birth to children after all. They asked me to entertain guests that day, and the person I picked up was Qian Lianghui."
At this point, she reached up to cover her eyes, tears dripping down the seams of her hands.
Everyone present felt very sad to hear this, especially Ou Kui.
She was the one who saved Qingmei in the depth of winter. At that time, she was thinly dressed and in a miserable state, holding her dead child in her arms and fainting to the ground.
I thought I couldn't bear it anymore, so I thought of a way to escape.
Now that the scar has been revealed, Qingmei didn't only tell half the truth. After calming down for a while, she wiped away her tears and continued: "When Qian Lianghui saw me, he took the contract of sale I just signed and pinched it. He touched my chin and asked me if I dared to step on his face on the ground? He told me not to try to harm him, otherwise he would make me never recover. He also said that one of my two sisters was sent to the capital. From now on, he will never recognize me. The remaining one is in his hands. As long as I want to do anything, he will let her die immediately. "
"At that time, I wanted to eat his flesh alive, drink his blood, twitch his tendons, crush his bones and throw away his ashes. How could I want to be manipulated by him in this life? I also want to find out who else is left in addition to my sister in the capital. Which. Also, why did you disown me? So, I pretended to be coy and coaxed him with good words, saying that I was ignorant and didn’t know his good intentions. I promised not to run away again. Even if it wasn’t for myself, I had to do it for my son and so on. "
"Then I took off his clothes while he was in a happy mood. When he relaxed his guard, I pulled out the hairpin from his bun and pierced it into his abdomen. Just when I was about to pierce him for the second time, he unexpectedly died. I could still hide away and call out to someone. I knew I had missed the opportunity, so I could only pick up the deed of betrayal that fell on the ground and ran away before I could register it at the Yamen."
"It's just that before I left, I was worried about my child, so I secretly went to that house, thinking that I would just take one more look. But it turned out that I was wrong. Even though I gave valuable clothes and silver hairpins, I couldn't. The seemingly honest family didn't take my child seriously at all. When I went to see my child, it was a cold day and his whole body was so hot that he could no longer open his eyes..."
Ou Kui couldn't listen anymore, so he stood up and walked to her, held her head in his arms, and patted her back.
"Stop talking, let's not talk anymore!"
As she said that, she looked at Li Yuan: "When I saw Qingmei, she was lying on the road holding her dead child. I didn't know what happened to her. It was late winter and the girl next to me went down to check and said that there was another child. The tone. And because we were in the suburbs at the time and there was no one around, we could only bring her back to the house and help her bury her son, and she has stayed with me since then!"
After Qingmei said and cried what she had suppressed in her heart for many years, she felt much more relaxed.
She took a few deep breaths and looked at Li Yuan: "When I was hiding in Tibet, I learned how to beautify myself. Now with Caiwei's appearance, I think before you can't protect her and she hasn't completely grown up, Teach her how to cover herself naturally. In addition, I know you can't recognize me rashly just because you heard about me. As far as I'm concerned, no matter who you are, just by virtue of your relationship with Mingshan, They are all my juniors. Even though I am your aunt, I don’t want you to help me get revenge."
If the person in front of her is really her niece, it means that the so-called captured sister is actually gone.
And she was just completely kept in the dark.
