Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country
Chapter 49: Feet Festering
Nanny Li bewitched Lin Yushu with words. Seeing that Lin Yushu stared at the ten taels of silver per month without moving her eyes, she felt relieved a little, thinking that she had not messed up this mission at least!
Lin Yushu held the monthly allowance in her hands, her hands shaking with excitement.
"Thank you, Grandmother, for me. I'll trouble you to decide my marriage!"
The corners of Nanny Li's mouth were cracked to her ears. She said that it was natural, but she cursed in her heart, "What a shameless stupid girl! After giving her ten taels of silver, she was eager to ask the old lady to find a husband for her. Bah, shameless!"
After seeing off Nanny Li, Lin Yushu looked at the ten taels of silver in her hand and felt even happier. It was like a pillow sent to her right away. She was just worrying that she didn't have enough money!
In her previous life, she only had five taels of silver, and in this life, the old lady obviously believed that she was a money-grubber and was ready to use money to seduce her to agree to that ridiculous marriage.
As for deciding her marriage, if I say it, I can reassure the old lady. If I don't say it... the old lady will definitely make a move in her marriage, there is no difference.
From that day on, Lin Yushu wore several pieces of pure gold jewelry every day when she wandered around the mansion. So, today she lost an earring, tomorrow she dropped a bracelet, and the day after tomorrow she lost a hairpin...
The "lost" jewelry was taken to a pawn shop outside by Cuizhu's second brother Zhuzi, who pawned the jewelry for money. Zhuzi was a procureur in the mansion, so it was very convenient for him to go out of the house to buy things for them.
And a few days later, when Lin Yushu paid her respects to the old lady, she would "accidentally" mention the lost jewelry and reveal a look of infinite heartache, and the old lady would then have someone send her more jewelry.
As a result, the four masters and servants in Bixiao Courtyard lived more and more comfortably.
As it was near the end of the year, the Lin residence was particularly lively in preparation for the New Year, but Fourth Miss Lin, who was usually noisy, was unexpectedly quiet.
Lin Yushu was eating chestnuts when Cuizhu lifted the cotton curtain and hurried in.
"Miss, something happened to the fourth lady!"
"What happened?"
Cuizhu drank a cup of hot tea, took a breath and continued, "I heard that the fourth young lady has not left her room in the past few days. This has never happened before. Out of curiosity, I made inquiries for a few days, and today I finally found out!"
"Stop keeping us in suspense and tell us now." Chuntao was impatient and couldn't help urging him.
Cuizhu smiled and blinked, "The fourth young lady's feet are rotten!"
"what?!"
Shi Lan and Chun Tao widened their eyes in surprise and looked at each other.
Cuizhu was very satisfied with the effect she created, but...why was the lady not surprised at all?
Lin Yushu's expression was indifferent, and she even gloated a little. "This is unfortunate. The end of the year is approaching, and it's the time for people to go out to the government offices. Lin Xuehui can't go..."
Lin Xuehui had just come of age and was going out for a visit during the New Year, a good opportunity for her to meet the young men from official families in the capital. Now she was really sick of it.
Lin Yushu smiled with satisfaction. It seemed that her newly modified bone-eroding powder was as effective as bone-eroding water, and it was even more secretive and vicious!
That day, he simply put some bone-eroding powder in his purse, and when Lin Xuehui stepped on the purse, the powder was released, causing her feet to fester. Lin Yushu was very satisfied with her poison skills.
In the east courtyard.
Blah blah blah...
Plates and dishes all fell to the ground, and the flying fragments cut the face of the frightened little maid who was kneeling on the ground.
"I don't want to take medicine! It's useless even if I take it. Get out! Get out!"
After watching the little maid hurriedly leave, the second lady walked in and sighed.
"Hey, Hui'er, how can you get better if you don't take medicine? Listen to your mother and take your medicine obediently!"
"It hurts, Mom, it hurts so much."
Lin Xuehui exposed her feet. Her originally white and tender feet were now festering and bloody, as if she had been skinned alive.
Upon closer inspection, the skinless feet were covered with needle-sized holes, and the deepest places even revealed the bones.
The smell of blood mixed with the stench of decay made the Second Madam unable to help but cover her mouth and nose. She pulled the quilt over and covered Lin Xuehui's feet again, comforting her perfunctorily: "It will be fine. The doctor said that the ulcer has stopped now and it will be healed in another month."
"One month? Then how can I go out with my mother?"
Lin Xuehui still remembered what the Second Madam had said not long ago, that she would take her out of the house more often before the New Year.
"How are you going to leave like this?"
The Second Madam suppressed her annoyance. Her little daughter had a bad temper and no brains, and was totally inferior to Lin Qingrou. Now it seemed that she was unlucky, otherwise how could she have such a strange disease!
"After the New Year, there will be plenty of opportunities to meet each other. You are still young, so there is no need to rush."
"Humph, I think you only want to impress your sister, I am just your foil!"
The Second Lady's secrets were exposed, and she raised her hand and slapped Lin Xuehui.
Lin Xuehui covered her face and looked at her mother in disbelief.
The second wife felt remorseful, and she comforted her hurriedly before leaving.
Lin Xuehui stared at the second wife's back, her eyes gradually turning cold.
Lin Yushu didn't care about the changes in the East Courtyard. She just wanted to avenge the laxative incident and get the people in the mansion to look away from her.
At the family dinner that night, Lin Yushu drank walnut yogurt while calmly observing everyone's gazes and expressions.
Lin Xuehui was young after all and couldn't keep her composure. Her eyes kept drifting towards Lin Yushu, with a look of anticipation and nervousness, as if "I was the one who poisoned her" was written all over her face.
Lin Yushu chewed the soft chestnuts and thought to herself that among the people in the East Courtyard, Lin Xuehui was reckless, impulsive and brainless, and was not favored by the Old Lady and the Second Lady. This was obviously the best target for her to attack.
Recalling her past life, in order to embarrass Lin Yushu, Lin Xuehui gave her medicine that caused a rash, causing Lin Yushu to have a horrible rash on her face.
As luck would have it, that day was the day that the Second Madam secretly arranged a date for Lin Yushu to meet. As a result, Lin Xuehui's move successfully ruined the ridiculous marriage and almost angered the Second Madam to death.
In this life, she will continue to use Lin Xuehui's knife. Since Lin Xuehui likes to use medicine so much, there is no reason for Lin Yushu, as a fellow practitioner, to stop her.

New Year came in a blink of an eye. Chuntao excitedly pulled Cuizhu and Shilan to cut window flowers and tidy up the yard. Over the past few months, Chuntao and her friends had realized that the servants in the yard were unreliable, so they simply tidied up the yard together.
Nanny Zhou and Fuling looked at the three maids with rosy faces from afar and felt extremely jealous. Everyone in the mansion knew that Lin Yushu was greedy, gluttonous and stupid, but she was very kind to the three maids around her and shared all the good things with them.
But Nanny Zhou and Fuling got nothing. They thought it was an easy job to keep an eye on the eldest lady for the old lady in Bixiao Courtyard. Not only would they get a generous reward from the old lady, but they could also fool that country bumpkin Lin Yushu. Wouldn't they be able to do whatever they want in Bixiao Courtyard!
As it turned out, their wishes were beautiful, but reality gave them a slap in the face.
Because they had not done their previous tasks well, the old lady no longer liked them, and Lin Yushu did not trust them either. She simply treated Nanny Zhou as a servant nanny and Fuling as a servant maid!
They had never been treated like this before, not to mention that for so long, they hadn't gotten even a penny from Lin Yushu!
Apart from barely having enough to eat, they are now completely useless, which is a huge shame!
"This New Year, we must cause some trouble in Bixiao Courtyard. If we don't take action, I'm afraid the old lady will abandon both of us!"
Nanny Zhou spoke to Fuling in a sinister tone, and the two of them immediately agreed and lowered their heads to discuss the matter quietly.
