Chapter 2620 - 104: Learning She Was Adopted
"You ungrateful thing, because of you, this bastard, father got so angry that he’s ill, and you still have the nerve to eat here? Let me ask you, has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"
Li Luru was baffled by her scolding. Father fell ill, how come she didn’t know? Why hadn’t anyone told her?
"What kind of thing are you?" Xiaohong pointed at her, "Who gave you the guts to scold our lady?"
"Slap..." Li Mengru had long wanted to teach this brazen maid a lesson. No matter what, she’s the master, yet she was insulted by a maid.
"You!"
Xiaohong was all talk; when it came to hitting someone, she hesitated.
Seeing this, Li Luru swiftly slapped Li Mengru back.
"You bastard, how dare you hit me?"
Earlier, she hadn’t paid attention to the word "bastard," but now that she did, Li Luru wouldn’t let it slide.
"Slap..."
"You are the bastard!" Xiaohong shouted on her behalf, "You little wretch, what right do you have to insult our lady?"
Li Mengru was trembling with anger. Look, this was her status in the mansion, even a maid could mock her for being a concubine’s child.
"What right?" Li Mengru pointed at Li Luru, "Just because she’s not father’s biological daughter, just because she’s merely a wild child adopted by the madam from elsewhere. How can a little bastard occupy the identity of the Li family’s legitimate daughter, why?"
"You’re talking nonsense!"
"You dog slave, what do you know?" Li Mengru laughed hysterically, "Ha, don’t be skeptical. I personally heard this from the madam’s courtyard, heard her chatting with Nanny Yang. That’s why father got sick from anger."
"Lady did give birth to a girl back then, but she died right after birth, and only then were you adopted. Every year on May 8th, madam goes to Quanya County town, I guess she’s going to pay respects to that dead child."
Li Luru was already dumbfounded by her message.
How did she become a wild child?
How could it be?
But it seems this is the only explanation for why mother has always been cold to her during a certain period every year. And thinking back, that time seemed to be around May.
There’s no denying, at this moment, she believed Li Mengru’s words, considering the severity of the matter, Li Mengru wouldn’t dare to shout it out otherwise.
"Shut up!" Third Young Master Li arrived, "Knowing you are restless, you made father sick and now you still want to trouble little sister? Mother said, little sister is her biological child, why are you still spouting nonsense here? Getting it wrong and spreading rumors around."
"Third brother..."
"Don’t call me third brother," Third Young Master Li said to her coldly, "Mother only gave birth to three children."
"Little sister, don’t listen to her nonsense," Third Young Master Li comforted her, "Mother said, you are her biological child."
Having heard Li Mengru’s words first, Li Luru now harbors a certain skepticism towards his words, but clearly, no one will tell her the truth.
Thinking about Li Shan’s illness, she gestured with her hands.
"Are you asking about father’s illness?"
Li Luru nodded.
"Come on, let’s go take a look together." Third Young Master Li glared at Li Mengru, "It’s her spouting nonsense in front of father that made him so angry he fell. The doctor has prescribed medicine, but father fell and hurt his head. He can’t move now, he can only lie in bed, and his speech isn’t very clear."
Li Luru widened her eyes, how did the fall become this serious?
