That day, when Li Jiu was wandering around, she saw the person she liked lying on the ground covered in blood.
Li Jiu was a girl and was afraid of blood, dirt, and fatigue. However, when this happened to the person she liked, she did not mind at all.
Li Jiu quickly returned home and asked the old housekeeper and Xiao Cui to help bring the person to the mansion. Then, she asked a doctor to treat the person.
When the person was unconscious, whether it was cleaning, bandaging, or wiping the body, Li Jiu did not ask anyone else to help.
Just as Li Jiu was fantasizing about the first time the two met, she did not expect that the person would be blind when he woke up again.
Although Li Jiu was sad, she still suppressed her sadness and took care of the person with all her heart.
The two of them spent a month together like this. The person promised that if he recovered, he would marry Li Jiu.
Li Jiu did not expect that the person would take the initiative to say that he would marry her. She was instantly overjoyed and gave her jade pendant to the person as a token of love. The person also gave his jade pendant to Li Jiu.
The person's status was noble. The person who could hurt him was naturally not an ordinary person. Soon, the people who were chasing him found this place and killed all the people in the Li Mansion in the night.
Li Jiu almost used all her strength to send the person away.
Then, she ran away alone to distract the pursuers.
However, when Li Jiu came back from the brink of death, she found that the person's eyes had recovered and he had married another woman.
On the day of the marriage, Li Jiu saw that the woman was wearing the jade pendant that the person gave her. Li Jiu was unwilling, but before she could say anything, she was pulled down.
Li Jiu did not expect that she would sacrifice everything for this person in exchange for this result.
Even if the woman had the jade pendant that he gave her, how could he not know her voice after being together for so long?
The housekeeper and Xiao Cui had already lost their lives in this disaster. Now, Li Jiu was being hunted because of that person.
In despair, Li Jiu directly jumped into the lake.
However, what Li Jiu did not know was that the reason why the person married this woman was that the woman lied and said that if he married her, she would tell him Li Jiu's whereabouts.
It was a pity that Li Jiu did not manage to wait for that day to come. He drowned himself in the lake.
Jiujiu couldn't help but sigh as she watched the entire process.
She sighed for Li Jiu and also felt sorry for this man.
If this man had not agreed to the woman's request, or if he had persisted a little longer, and if Li Jiu had believed him a little longer, such a tragedy would not have happened to them.
Unfortunately, the thing that was lacking the most in time was ifs.
When Jiujiu opened her eyes, her eyelids were a little sore. She raised her hand and rubbed her eyelids. They were swollen like small walnuts. Jiujiu thought about it carefully. Now was the time when Li Jiu's parents passed away.
Li Jiu was young and had lost both of his parents. At the funeral, he cried until he fainted.
Jiujiu sat up from the bed, picked up the clothes that Xiao Cui had put aside, and put them on. As she put on her clothes, she thought about the future.
In fact, when Li Jiu saved that person, the Li family had already changed from a rich landlord to an ordinary person.
It was not that Li Jiu's family had less land, or that the housekeeper did not do his best. It was just that the servants deceived them. Li Jiu was young, and the housekeeper needed to take care of Li Jiu, so they did all kinds of deceptive things. It was common for them to be greedy for the rent and money of the shop. When Li Jiu was born, Li Jiu's life was not as good as that of the housekeeper who managed the shop.
However, the most important thing now was to finish the funeral of Li Jiu's parents. After that, they could take their time.
Because Li Jiu's parents died a horrible death, and it was summer now, they only stayed for three days before they were buried.
After Li Jiu's parents were buried, all the disloyal servants in the Li family cheered.
When Li Jiu's father was alive, he was very smart and capable. He did not make any mistakes at all. Although Li Jiu's mother was just a woman, she was also good at handling things in the mansion. In short, when the two of them were together, it was wishful thinking for the servants to take more things.
But now, it was different.
Now that Li Jiu's parents were dead, the only person who could talk was Jiujiu. How old was Jiujiu? It was not easy to fool him.
However, even if they were thinking about how to fool Jiujiu, they still pretended to be concerned. It was as if they cared a lot about Jiujiu.
Jiujiu's heart had long been impervious to fire and water. She could tell at a glance whether these people were sincere or hypocritical.
On the seventh day after Li Jiu's parents were buried, Jiujiu directly asked the old housekeeper to call all the shopkeepers over. He also asked them to bring the account books for this period of time.
It was true that he wanted to check the accounts, but in fact, he wanted to quickly find out who had the problem.
Very quickly, Jiujiu picked out all the problematic account books. The account books that Jiujiu picked out were not only problematic, but they were also a complete mess.
Looking at the account books in his hands, he was so angry that he wanted to laugh.
He really took her for a fool. The account books did not look like much on the surface, but in fact, they were like wood that had been gnawed by termites, leaving only dregs.
This group of people was hired by Li Jiu's parents to manage the shops. The moment Li Jiu's parents left, they immediately emptied the account books to fill their own pockets. They were simply shameless to the extreme.
Since they did not care about their own face, there was no problem for her to throw their face to the ground and stomp on it.
Since they did not want it, they could not blame her for not giving it to them.
Jiujiu's body was only that of a twelve-year-old, but with Jiujiu's soul filling in, his aura was much stronger than some people who had lived for more than half their lives.
Jiujiu's face was gloomy. Her delicate little eyebrows were tightly knitted, and her round cat eyes shot out a fierce cold light.
Jiujiu raised her hand and threw the account books with the most serious problem directly at the face of the manager who delivered the account books. She sneered and said, "Manager Li is really capable."
Being stared at by Jiujiu's eyes that were as sharp as a sword, Manager Li's forehead was instantly covered in a layer of cold sweat. He subconsciously felt that his actions had been discovered by Jiujiu.
But thinking about it, he had been a manager for more than ten years, and the problems in the account books had already been cleared. Jiujiu was just a little girl, how could she see anything? He was just scaring himself by thinking that way.
Thinking of this, Manager Li's originally somewhat panicked face immediately revealed an aggrieved expression. He looked at Jiujiu and said, "I don't know what I did to make Young Miss so furious. I'm really wronged ~"
