Chapter 37: Confrontation

The atmosphere in Changxi Courtyard was tense and strict.

A little maid opened the curtain, and ran out with blood and tears on her forehead, and a few pieces of broken porcelain were placed on the tea tray in her hand.

I think the old lady was angry with her.

Everyone knew it.

Bao Lu smiled, opened the curtain, let go of the body and said, "Madam, please first." ā€

The ladies were a little dignified in their hearts, straightened their clothes, and slowly walked into the house.

Bao Lu called the maid again, helped Xie Fei to the side room to rest first, and followed the old doctor to inspect.

Xie Fei, Xie Zhen and Jin Yu, as well as Nan'er and a maid, all stood in front of the curtain and waited for the summons.

I heard a scolding from the house, followed by the sound of a tea cup breaking.

"Your good daughter!"

Xie Zhen's heart jumped, and she didn't care about anything else, so she hurriedly lifted the curtain and broke in.

Li even knelt in the middle of the room, with a few pieces of broken porcelain scattered in front of him. The other two ladies stood on one side.

Xie Zhen squinted her eyes slightly, and stepped forward to help her, "Mother! ā€

Li Shi shook his head, reached out and grabbed her wrist, "Zhen'er, kneel." ā€

Xie Zhen was stunned, "I'm not wrong, why do you kneel?" ā€

Li Shi Zhengse said: "Even if it's right, it's your grandmother in the hall, you should kneel." ā€

Xie Zhen frowned and knelt down as she said.

Old Madam Jin snorted coldly: "I am used to acting in front of me. Are you just teaching her to be filial in front of others and hurt others later? ā€

Xie Zhen frowned, and was about to refute, but heard Li Shi preemptively say: "Etiquette must be taught, reason must be clear, mother has not verified it clearly, how can I conclude that it is me Zhen'er who hurt people?" ā€

"Are you saying that I don't know what to do?" Old Madam Jin sneered: "A monkey who dares to yell at her grandmother, what else does she dare not do?" ā€

"Mother......" Li Shi wanted to say more, but Xie Zhen pulled off his shirt.

"Mother, I'll tell you." Xie Zhen said.

Li Shi frowned, but nodded in the end.

Xie Zhen knelt down a few steps and stepped forward.

Mrs. Jin let out a soft snort in her nose, wanting to see what she was going to do.

Xie Zhen raised her hands and drew a semicircle in the air, then folded her palms and slowly bowed down.

"What are you doing here? Ask me for mercy? Old Madam Jin snorted.

Xie Zhen slowly knelt up straight, shook her head and said, "No, I didn't do this, I don't beg for mercy." ā€

"Then what are you kneeling me for?" Old Madam Jin frowned and said strangely.

Xie Zhen said loudly: "This kneeling is because I was rude to my grandmother and rude to my elders that day, so I should kneel." ā€

Old Madam Jin snorted.

Xie Hao continued: "I have one more thing to ask. ā€

Mrs. Jin closed her eyes and ignored her, and she didn't say whether she would listen or not.

Seeing this, Mama Jin on the side hurriedly said, "Miss Six, please speak!" ā€

Xie Hao stared straight at Mrs. Jin, and said slowly: "I was wrong, I should kneel." What if the grandmother is wrong? ā€

Old Madam Jin opened her eyes abruptly and looked at her in disbelief, "What do you mean?" Do you mean that I am wrong, and I will kneel for you? ā€

"Zhen'er! Don't be presumptuous. Li Shi scolded lightly.

Xie Zhen shook her head slowly, "Zhen'er doesn't dare." ā€

Old Madam Jin laughed angrily, "Okay, well, I don't think you dare to do anything." Left and right that you did something wrong, and I'm still afraid that you can't do it? ā€

As she spoke, she called out in a loud voice, "Bao Lu, let them in." ā€

Bao Lu agreed loudly, and hurriedly opened the curtain to let Xie Fang, Jin Yu and Nan'er in.

Nan'er swayed all over her body, and she also heard Miss Fangliu's words, it was a big rebellion, a big rebellion! Although the old lady said that she would not punish Miss Six, it was difficult to guarantee that she would not be angry......

"Grandmother."

"Grandma."

Xie Fang and Jin Yu bowed.

"Hmm." Old Madam Jin bowed slightly, and said, "Now tell me what happened just now, 1510, and you are not allowed to hide it for anyone." ā€

For whom? It couldn't be more obvious who the old lady was referring to in what she said.

Jin Yu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I'll say it first, lest Sister Fang can't bear it and do something foolish." ā€

Old Madam Jin nodded approvingly.

Jin Yu said: "Today, I came with my aunt to visit my aunt and grandmother from home, and then Sister Fei took me to Xiaohaitang Mountain to play with Sister Fang, Sister Fang sent us two bead flowers respectively, and Sister Fei said that she wanted to go to Sister Zhen to play." Later, we went to find Sister Zhen, and went to the garden with Sister Zhen to play. Sister Infei was bored, so I mentioned yƬ to play a game, and asked them to hide their own first, I came to look for it, but I didn't expect ......"

When she said this, her tone was choked, and she blamed herself, "I didn't expect that something happened to Sister Fei." ā€

Her narration, although Sister Fei, Sister Fei, and Sister Zhen are endless, but they are still clear.

Old Madam Jin bowed her head and asked Xie Fang again, "What about you?" ā€

Xie Fang hung his head and said with a sad expression: "It's probably what Jin Yu said." ā€

"Probably?" Old Madam Jin sneered: "What do you mean? What she didn't say, you just added it, why did you say something that was probably so vague? Fei'er is your sister, you don't speak for your sister, you only cry, cover up the murderer, what kind of sister are you? ā€

What kind of sister are you? These words pierced Xie Fang's heart like a needle, and her face suddenly turned pale and her body staggered.

"Mother." Qin couldn't bear to say: "Fang'er is also anxious, I don't know what to say for a while, don't worry." ā€

Old Madam Jin snorted coldly.

Xie Fang burst into tears and sobbed: "Things are indeed what Jin Yu said, I have been with them all the time, and there is nothing to add." ā€

Since she cried, Mrs. Jin naturally wouldn't embarrass her anymore, so she turned her head and asked Nan'er, "What about you?" ā€

Nan'er knelt on the ground with a thud and cried: "The slave doesn't know either!" The slave did nothing. ā€

"Crying for what?" When she cried, Mrs. Jin naturally didn't care about her, and immediately shouted: "Do you think that it is reasonable to cry twice?" ā€

Nan'er immediately choked and cried. Xie Fang also raised her face in surprise, there were still two tear stains on her face, only she opened her mouth and didn't dare to cry again.

Old Madam Jin said again: "You just said that you are hiding each other? ā€

Several little girls nodded.

Mrs. Jin said, "In this case, where are you all hiding?" ā€

Xie Fang hurriedly said: "I hid with Nan'er. ā€

"That's not right!" Jin Yu subconsciously said: "I was the first to catch Nan'er, why didn't I see you?" ā€

The people in the room all looked at Xie Fang suspiciously, obviously to see how she was going to answer.

Xie Fang hurriedly said: "Really, I really hid with Nan'er, I don't believe you asked Nan'er." ā€

Nan'er nodded hurriedly and said: "The third miss was hiding with me, and then Miss Jin came to find me, and the third miss pushed me out, Miss Jin didn't know that there were two people hiding behind the tree, so after catching me, she didn't look behind the tree anymore, so she didn't find the third miss." ā€

"I see." Jin Yu nodded and said, "No wonder you suddenly jumped out at that time." ā€

Xie Fang breathed a sigh of relief.

Old Madam Jin looked at Xie Zhen, who was kneeling on the ground and was silent, and asked, "What about you?" Where are you hiding? ā€

Xie Zhen said: "In the rockery." ā€

"Rockery!" Jin Yu exclaimed.

Old Madam Jin said unhappily: "What are you yelling about?" ā€

Jin Yu hurriedly confessed and said, "Grandma is not strange, it's really because she said that she just hid in the rockery, and Sister Fei did something in the rockery!" ā€
