Chapter 23

Fangwei hurried forward, skillfully stroked the old lady's back twice, the old lady let out a long sigh of relief, as if all the energy and energy in her body had been taken away in an instant, her face was ashen and her limbs were ashen Fangwei helped her limply onto the bed and lay down.

Fangwei looked at the old lady on the bed who was as angry as gossamer, and sighed deeply.

"Girl, rest assured, the girl's wish is Fangwei's wish, and Fangwei will definitely fulfill the girl's wish. The Lin family will surely prosper."

The corners of the old lady's mouth raised slightly in a haze, she slowly closed her eyes, and after a while, she let out the sound of even breathing.

The next morning, when Xiaotao opened her eyes and found herself sleeping on Lin Qingyue's bed, she was startled. Seeing Lin Qingyue sleeping beside her, she breathed a sigh of relief and tiptoed out of the bed. Door.

Just as the door closed, Lin Qingyue, who was supposed to be sound asleep, suddenly opened her eyes and said to the air, "This girl is so cute and silly, she really thought she accidentally fell asleep in my room."

Xiao Linze swore that if he had eyes, he would roll his eyes at Lin Qingyue without hesitation at this very moment.

"Who would a normal person think that the master of his family would drug the maid because she didn't cover for him?"

Lin Qingyue gave two embarrassed 'hehe' and scratched her head in embarrassment.

"Don't say this kind of thing, it's weird, it makes people feel confused"

Xiao Linze: ...I want to be quiet.

Xiaotao came back after working for a while, and seeing Lin Qingyue woke up, she hurriedly prepared to help Lin Qingyue wash up.

Lin Qingyue didn't sleep for a few hours at night, she could fall asleep anytime and anywhere if she was sleepy, and she had to pretend in front of Xiaotao that she was full of sleep, and truly felt what it meant to be self-inflicted!

Lin Qingyue sat blankly in front of the mirror like a marionette and let Xiaotao play with her. Looking at her beautiful face in the mirror, Lin Qingyue started to paint her face again.

Obviously, after only a few smears, the color on the originally beautiful woman's face lost three points, and the facial features did not change much, but she lost a bit of beauty for no reason, and instantly dimmed a lot.

Xiao Tao tilted her head, looked at the face in the mirror that was only slightly better than ordinary people, and asked suspiciously: "Girl, Xiao Tao doesn't understand, you obviously have a good face, why do you want to cover it up?"

Lin Qingyue let out a long sigh, and patted Xiaotao's shoulder earnestly.

"You are still too young, I will tell you when you grow up."

Xiaotao was coaxed by Lin Qingyue's old-fashioned appearance, and nodded obediently.

When Lin Qingyue turned around and went to the inner room, Xiao Tao reacted belatedly, puffed her cheeks and complained: "The girl is teasing Xiao Tao again! Xiao Tao is obviously two years older than the girl, so the girl should be the younger one! "

Lin Qingyue snickered secretly, recently she liked teasing this silly girl Xiaotao more and more.

Every time she teased Xiao Tao and jumped her feet, Lin Qingyue felt very happy in her heart.

At first, Xiao Linze mocked Lin Qingyue's childishness openly and secretly, but later joined the ranks of bullying Xiaotao shamelessly, and he was the one who made many bad moves.

Lin Qingyue had had enough of laughing, and before Xiao Tao got angry, she stuffed a bag of things into Xiao Tao's arms.

The smile on her face disappeared in an instant, Lin Qingyue's eyes darkened, and she whispered, "Go to a pawnshop and sell these things for some money back, don't let others notice."

Xiaotao was startled slightly, and opened the package in her hand with her backhand. When she saw clearly what was wrapped inside, her face turned pale with shock.

"Girl! That's all you have, and there are a few things left by your wife as a dowry before she passed away. How can you pawn it!"

Lin Qingyue thought to herself that she had a good eye. She searched the room and found only a few things that caught her eye. She didn't expect that there was a relic of 'mother' in it.

The ancients valued filial piety very much. Selling the relics of the dead mother would be struck by lightning and scolded by thousands of people.

But if she said that she didn't recognize these things, Xiaotao would definitely be suspicious.

At the critical moment, Lin Qingyue had an idea, she looked very sad, covered her face with her sleeves, let out a long sigh, and sat down at the table dejectedly.

"Xiaotao, I'm afraid you don't know something. I accidentally fell off the horse and the whole family thought I was dead. The eldest lady has already spotted my marriage with Xue Ji. A few days ago, the two families have already started re-discussing the marriage. The jade marriage has passed, and the eldest lady once threatened me in case I hindered her plan, saying that if I did not agree to dissolve the engagement, she would send me directly to the palace. I did this just in case, if there was such a day, I If you have some silver on you, you will always have some power to fight."

When Lin Qingyue said this, she wanted to squeeze two tears out to meet the occasion, but her lacrimal glands were very weak, and she couldn't brew any tears after brewing for a long time.

Just when Lin Qingyue was hesitating whether to bite her teeth and pinch herself, Xiao Tao took the lead and burst into tears.

Lin Qingyue looked at Xiaotao, who was already in tears, with a look of astonishment, and couldn't hold back a 'puchi' laugh.She had forgotten that Xiaotao was a crying little girl, as long as she didn't yell to stop, there would be countless tears in her eyes for her to drive.While grinning and crying, Xiaotao stared angrily at Lin Qingyue with her misty eyes.

"Girl, you are laughing at me!"

Lin Qingyue took out a handkerchief from her cuff with a helpless expression, and gently wiped away all the tears on Xiao Tao's face.

"You cry so hard, if I don't know the reason, I almost mistakenly think that I bullied you."

Xiaotao was amused by Lin Qingyue's aggrieved appearance, she pursed her lips and laughed along with Lin Qingyue.

After laughing enough, Xiaotao wiped her face with her sleeve, took Lin Qingyue's hand solemnly and said: "If you want to collect some money to protect yourself, Xiaotao has some. Xiaotao has no father or mother, and there is only one girl in the world." Relatives, Xiaotao has saved the monthly money from the mansion over the years, and I originally thought to buy some better jewelry for the girl as a dowry when you get married, but now it will come in handy."

Lin Qingyue was stunned, and raised her eyes to look at Xiao Tao who was full of smiles.

"You gave me all the money, what do you do?"

Xiao Tao smiled indifferently, her crooked eyes were as bright and flawless as a crescent moon hanging upside down in the sky.

"Xiaotao signed a death contract. She will not be able to leave the Lin Mansion in this life. There is no place to spend money, and it is useless to keep it."

Lin Qingyue's heart was sore, she could feel that Xiao Tao was treating her well, but it was precisely because of this that Lin Qingyue could not harm her like this.

A slave who has signed a death contract like Xiao Tao is like a bird trapped in a cage, waiting for death from the moment it is locked in the cage.

What Xiaotao said is true, money is useless to her, but it is her only hope to break free from the shackles.

Now she has given her this hope without hesitation. People's hearts are full of flesh, so how can Lin Qingyue remain calm?
Xiao Linze felt the sorrow surging in Lin Qingyue's heart, and he sighed and said, "Isn't it just money? Are you masters and servants acting like parting from life and death?"

Lin Qingyue touched the moisture at the corners of her eyes, and said in her heart: "You are a cold-hearted system, you know nothing!" Xiao Linze was scolded this time, but he didn't blow up immediately, and said with a little joy in his tone: "Didn't you always ask for rewards before? Is money okay?"

Lin Qingyue was stunned for a moment, this was the first time she heard the word 'reward' from Xiao Linze's mouth.

In the past, every time Lin Qingyue asked, Xiao Linze would decisively say 'no'. This time, she suddenly took the initiative to mention it, and Lin Qingyue felt that it was a joke.
