Chapter 336: The Gentle-Looking Maid with a Serious Heart
If Liu Leqing wanted to help Qiu Rong find a good doctor, he could just spend a little more money to hire one.
But Liu Leqing didn't intend to do so.
Because in her opinion, Chunhua's request was nothing but taking advantage of the favor and making a fuss out of nothing.
I just kicked Qiu Rong that day, how could it be as serious as Chunhua said?
Originally, Liu Leqing felt somewhat unhappy when he saw Chu Yunzhi's care for Azhi in Yilan Courtyard.
Now Chunhua put on a pitiful look again, which made her feel even more disgusted.
In her eyes, Chunhua and Azhi were both bitches who tried to seduce Chu Yunzhi.
Seeing the impatience on Liu Leqing's face, Chunhua became more and more anxious. She couldn't help but crawl forward a few steps, raised her head and wanted to say something.
But before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Liu Leqing.
Liu Leqing picked up a teacup beside him and threw it at Chunhua, shouting, "Have I been too indulgent towards you? You are so lawless that you even dare to disobey my orders. Chunhua, get out of here right now!"
Chunhua widened her eyes in horror and tried to dodge, but it was too late. The teacup hit her head heavily with a crisp sound.
Chunhua covered his stinging forehead and took a deep breath, bright red blood dripping slowly through his fingers.
She didn't expect Liu Leqing to be so cruel that he would actually pick up the teacup and disfigure her face.
Liu Leqing stood up and walked towards the inner room, leaving Chunhua alone lying on the ground.
Thinking that Qiu Rong was still waiting for him in the alley outside the mansion, Chunhua endured the pain, got up and ran out.
Along the way she prayed that Qiu Rong was okay, but when she arrived at the alley it was too late. A shrill cry came from Qiu Rong's room.
Qiu Rong lying on the bed looked pale and lifeless.
Chunhua rushed in in panic and saw the little maid Fuer standing by the bed.
Fu'er was shocked when he turned around and saw Chunhua, whose head was covered in blood.
"Sister Chunhua, what's wrong with your head?"
Seeing Fu'er's worried look, Chunhua touched his forehead and shook his head, "I'm fine, how is Qiurong?"
"Sister Chunhua, you are finally back. Sister Qiurong was thinking about you before she left, but she didn't expect you to not come back yet."
Chunhua walked around Fuer and rushed to the bedside and held Qiurong's hand. Recalling every little detail of their past, Chunhua felt like her heart was torn apart at this moment.
In the eyes of others, the two look like sisters, but only Chunhua knows that Qiurong and she are already relatives.
She rubbed Qiu Rong's hands vigorously, hoping to retain the remaining warmth from Qiu Rong.
Fu'er knelt beside him and cried bitterly.
At this time, Chunhua asked softly, "Did Qiurong leave any words before she left?"
Fu Er said without hiding anything, "Sister Qiu Rong mentioned her box and asked Sister Chun Hua to take the key. All her things are Sister Chun Hua's dowry."
"Also let Sister Chunhua live well and find a good husband. Don't waste your life."
Qiu Rong had known Chunhua's little thoughts for a long time, and had reminded her many times not to have any unrealistic thoughts.
Liu Leqing looked generous on the surface and hung them with two carrots, but in fact he never thought of letting them climb up.
Chunhua didn't believe it and was equally unconvinced.
She believed that the maidservant beside Old Madam Chu could become a concubine's maid, and as Liu Leqing's dowry maid, she could also become Chu Yunzhi's bedmate.
Now, before Qiu Rong died, she was still telling her to find her ideal husband. At this moment, Chunhua instantly let it go.
I want to leave the Chu family, make Liu Leqing pay the price, and I want to live with Qiu Rong's share.
When Liu Leqing heard that Qiu Rong had passed away, there was disbelief on his face at first.
At the same time, she looked at Chunhua and asked hurriedly, "Qiu Rong died of illness? How is that possible? Why did she die of illness out of nowhere? Chunhua, did you make a mistake?"
"I just kicked her, how could she be so vulnerable? I clearly didn't use much force."
No force? The blood came out of the kick.
Chunhua suppressed the resentment in her heart and shed tears with grief on her face.
"Grandma, Qiu Rong is not lucky enough to serve you. Please give me two days. There is no one in Qiu Rong's family to take care of her affairs. I want to send Qiu Rong off."
Liu Leqing knocked over the incense burner beside him in a panic, and the maid in the room hurried forward to clean it up.
She knew that Qiu Rong's death was related to herself, and she looked at Chunhua with a guilty look.
If I hadn't kicked Qiu Rong back then, maybe she wouldn't have died.
Liu Leqing originally thought that Qiu Rong was not seriously injured, but he never expected that the kick would be so serious.
She came back to her senses, nodded towards Chunhua and said, "Go ahead. I'll give you three days and one hundred taels of silver to take care of Qiu Rong's affairs. You don't have to rush back to serve me."
The person is dead now, what’s the point of giving money?
If Qiu Rong had spent one hundred taels of silver to hire a good doctor, she might not have died.
But Chunhua only dared to say this in her heart and didn't dare to reveal it in front of Liu Leqing at all.
If she really said it, Liu Leqing would definitely take her life.
Chunhua lowered her head with resentment on her face, but spoke in a submissive tone.
"Thank you, Grandma. Qiu Rong and I will remember your kindness."
Watching Chunhua take the hundred taels of silver and leave, Liu Leqing sat by the window for a long time, unable to come back to his senses.
After all, Qiu Rong had been with her for so many years, and such a living person died, and was indirectly killed by her. How could Liu Leqing not be afraid?
At this time, the low voices of two maids were heard outside the house.
"Have you heard? Qiu Rong died of vomiting blood. The doctor said it was due to internal injuries. What a pity, she didn't make it."
"I heard that he vomited blood all over the bed. He must be dead. Do you think this incident has anything to do with the grandmother? Qiu Rong was kicked by the grandmother and lost her life. Do you think she will become a ghost?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? It's so scary. Even if Qiu Rong is going to become a ghost, we haven't offended her. We are not the ones who should be afraid."
A gust of cold wind blew into the room, making the windows creak.
Liu Leqing looked towards the window suddenly, covering his chest and gasping for air in fear.
It is a cloudy day today, but the sky at noon is particularly dark.
Liu Leqing trembled all over as if he had thought of something. That night, Liu Leqing had a high fever and talked in his sleep.
When Azhi heard that Liu Leqing was ill, he immediately suggested going with Chu Yunzhi to see Liu Leqing.
Qiu Rong’s death scared Liu Leqing. As the old saying goes, if you haven’t done anything wrong, you don’t have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door.
But Liu Leqing kicked Qiu Rong to death, and she was worried that Qiu Rong would take her life.
