Fractious Legitimate Daughter - C130
With a turn of his mind, two drops of tears appeared on Xie Wanqing’s face. He looked at the old lady with his teary eyes, although the old lady was not soft-hearted, but with her innocent little appearance, it was enough to make her hate Xie Yun even more.
“Today, I left school early and played outside, and unknowingly walked to the other side. Who knew that on the way, I met Xie Wanqing … Without another word, she slapped me across the face and said I was in her way. ”
Xie Yun finally regained his senses, and spoke those words in a rush, as if he had memorized them before. However, Xie Wanqing was even more certain now, not to mention the Concubine Fang, there must be Xie Wanyun involved in this.
However, he was even more resentful. Why did he slap him so hard at that time? Why did his mouth that was spouting nonsense even have flowers in it?
“That late Qing dare to ask, why is Xie Yun playing outside the Marquis Anyang’s Mansion Academy, and also by himself, could it be that some of the young masters are really interested?”
“I… Could it be that playing by myself is a hindrance to you and you want to humiliate me like this? ”
Xie Wanqing was meticulous enough to pick out the mistakes in the words that Xie Yun made out of the flowers.
“Grandmother, I heard that Xie Yun is studying in a private school outside. Even if he likes to play, he shouldn’t be coming here!” The old lady was smoking and nodded her head, what Xie Wanqing said was true.
“In addition, does Grandmother also think that those kinds of people would find fault and humiliate others?!” Seeing that the old lady had nodded, Xie Wanqing continued to speak.
“Xie Wanqing, don’t force yourself! You were the one who beat me up, are you telling me that you don’t want to admit it!?” Just as Xie Wanqing finished speaking, Xie Yun turned angry from embarrassment and laughed.
“Young Master Xie’s way of doing things is exactly the same as Aunt’s. I didn’t say that I wouldn’t admit it, so why is Young Master Xie so angry!”
This made it seem like Xie Wanqing was a man of principle, even the old lady snorted coldly as she squinted her eyes. This meant that she was looking down upon Xie Wanqing, as the big one talked about rules and regulations.
But today, Su Qing was left behind by mister for him to help, and came back a little late. Su Qing had already seen Xie Yun from afar, and was about to go around to look for, but Xie Yun stood straight in front of his, causing his to take action helplessly!
The old lady did not help Xie Wanqing, and did not help Xie Yun either. Xie Wanqing originally thought that she was being so ordinary these past few days, to the point where even the heart of a stone would have been affected, but from the looks of it, the old lady’s heart was even tougher than a stone.
It seemed that in the eyes of the madame, it was only a conflict between two concubines. The madame was troubled by her labour and her wisdom.
“It’s not like that, it’s obviously Xie Wanqing who is unreasonable. Esteemed wangfei, I am the only one who is in Xie Wanqing’s way, how can she say that?” As Xie Yun spoke, his face was actually covered with tears, causing Xie Wanqing to look down upon him even more.
This was a principle that even the small Xie Huaixing knew. This was the great hall of Marquis Anyang’s Mansion, could it be that he thought it was his home, that he could do whatever he liked with it?
“Xie Yun still hasn’t answered Zhiqing’s question. If he was just playing around, why would he walk over there and start crying right now?”
“Grandmother, Grandmother, Sister Wanqing doesn’t know how to do it, Sister Wanqing doesn’t know how to bully people!” That childish voice made Xie Wanqing jump in fright, but right after, she felt relieved. It was Xie Huaixing.
Turning his head back, he saw Xie Huaixing stumbling as he ran over. As he ran, he was anxiously trying to defend Xie Wanqing as her face flushed red.
As he grew older, the Madame Huang became even stricter on Xie Huaixing. It was difficult for him to even sneak out to see Xie Wanqing, but now that he had heard that he had met with misfortune, he had risked his life to sneak out.
Seeing that Xie Huaixing had grown a lot taller after a few days of not seeing him, it could be seen that even though he was bored into his room with books all day, he was still unable to relax.
“Huai, why did you come here? Slow down, be careful!” The tone of the old lady’s voice was so gentle, as though she was afraid of scaring Xie Huaixing, the kind of gentleness only towards a grandson.
“Grandmother!” Xie Huaixing ran over, and when he passed by Xie Yun’s side, he did not forget to turn his head and glare fiercely at Xie Yun.
“If you want to testify, the Sister Wanqing will not bully others!” Xie Huaixing’s tiny body immediately climbed onto the old lady’s leg, and stared at his.
Grandmother, Brother Huaixing’s childish words cannot be counted. Seeing that Grandmother is also tired, why don’t you leave this matter to her? Xie Wanyun said in embarrassment, she seemed to be truly worried about his sister, the others probably worried about his sister’s feelings.
However, only Xie Wanqing knew how dirty this place was. Let Xie Wanyun check if she had any innocence, it would be good if she wasn’t killed.
Xie Wanyun really knew how to judge the situation. Just now, the old lady had shown some signs of exhaustion, but to Xie Wanyun, wasn’t that an opportunity?
“Thank you elder sister for worrying about me, but today little sister has already said everything, since there is no proof, and both Su Qing and Xie Yun are insistent, I hope grandmother can adjudicate that Su Qing will not lie!” As Xie Wanqing said this, she heavily kowtowed, she absolutely could not allow herself to fall into Xie Wanyun’s hands.
Furthermore, compared to Xie Wanyun, the Old Granny would definitely prefer someone who is slightly more sensible, so Xie Wanqing would definitely be confident.
“What Xianqing said is reasonable, why would Xie Yun be near the academy, he doesn’t believe anyone if he says that it’s for fun, from now on, all of you better not take another step into the Marquis Anyang’s Mansion!” The madame said indifferently. The punishment was so severe that it couldn’t be any less severe.
According to Xie Wanyun’s thoughts, he would not be able to think of such a far-fetched excuse. Seems like the clumsy excuse was something that Xie Yun had thought of himself, with very little contact with the old lady, how could he know how clever the old lady was? Otherwise, she would not be so old to care about the matters of the mansion and suppress her daughter-in-law.
The tone of the voice was light, but when it came to Xie Yun and his family, it was like a strike to them. Originally, they did not want to go to their own academy to provoke such a commotion, but now, it caused them to lose face and their future career as an official in the Xie Clan.
Originally, it was just that Xie Yun was bullied by others, but today, the result was actually like this.
“Old madam, there might have been some misunderstanding just now, but no matter what, we are family. Why must we act so heartlessly like this? Who knows what other people will tell us?” The man who had been silent all this time finally opened his mouth.
Xie Wanqing looked at this person’s past life, of which she herself was not familiar with. Xie Wanqing had always loved to play, and did not know much about her family members in the first place.
“Hmph, a misunderstanding? Right now, you are going to wrongly accuse Wan Qing, if I, this old granny, do not punish you, then wouldn’t I have to let you climb onto the Marquis Anyang’s Mansion’s head! ”
Previously, he had heard that Xie Yun’s father had gotten help from the Marquis Anyang’s Mansion and became a small official in the imperial court. He had no power or influence, but he could protect the peace and prosperity of his family.
Xie Wanqing secretly looked at her, she seemed to be someone who understood things, and had not spoken at all. It could be seen that she must have been pressured by someone from her family.
It was only the madame who had decided to speak now that things had happened. There was no longer any reason for it to be overturned.
“Did you not hear what you said just now? Why are you still standing here!” As the old mistress spoke, she put down her snuff and took a sip of tea.
“Don’t go overboard. It’s clearly Xie Wanqing’s fault, why do you keep blaming me?” Xie Yun was a little hysterical.
That was exactly the case with this person. If Xie Wanqing kept quiet, wouldn’t that mean that the whole nest of snake rats would climb up onto Xie Wanqing’s head?
