After Mei Xiang dealt with the matter on the side of Begonia Garden, she hurried to Yulanzhai.

Old Madam Mu was talking to Mu Zongze about the celebration banquet with a solemn expression.

Mei Xiang hurried from outside the door, never expecting Mu Zongze to be there, but now she can't take too much care of it. She lost her voice and said, "Old lady, it's not good! ”

Old Madam Mu raised her head sideways and glanced at Mei Xiang who was sincerely frightened in front of her, and saw that Mei Xiang was soaked, and couldn't help but clench the Buddha beads in her hand.

Mu Zongze squinted his eyes and looked Mei Xiang up and down.

Old Madam Mu was still calm, although she was already in her sixtieth year, her eyes were bright, and she asked, "What's the matter?" How did you get this out? ”

Mei Xiang has been with her for more than 30 years, and such a reckless appearance is really rare. Old Madam Mu couldn't help but feel a little nervous, just hoping that nothing would happen.

Mei Xiang glanced at Mu Zongze, folded her hands on her chest, I don't know if it was because she was cold or scared, or both, her hands trembled so much that she couldn't even make a sound in her throat. After a long time, she said in a dumb voice: "Fifth Miss, Fifth Miss, she fell into the water." ”

"What did you say?" The Buddha beads were scattered all over the place, and Mrs. Mu's expression was overwhelming.

"It's all the slave's fault, the slave deserves to die......"

"Where are you now?" Mu Zongze interrupted her, with a gloomy look as if he was going to end her in the next moment, and his usual gentle appearance was completely gone.

When Mei Xiang said in a trembling voice that Mu Zhiling was already in Haitang Garden, Mu Zongze had already rushed out, and Old Madam Mu said coldly: "Go and change into clean clothes, and then bring Sister Shu to the inner hall for me." ”

After speaking, he followed Mu Zongze and left.

Mu Zongze almost rushed into the room, and when he saw that Mu Zhiling was fine, his face eased slightly, and he asked Xiao Yuning in a low voice, "What's the matter?" ”

Mu Zhiling said first: "Ling'er just wanted the second sister to like it, but the second sister pushed Ling'er into the lake. Tears accumulated in Mu Zhiling's eyes, and she said aggrievedly: "Why doesn't the second sister like Ling'er......?"

These words were heard by Mrs. Mu, who had just entered the door, and her brows were furrowed.

Seeing Mrs. Mu coming, Xiao Yuning got up with red and swollen eyes to salute, Mu Zhiling was about to get up, but Mrs. Mu shouted: "It's so good to lie down, your body is important." ”

Mu Zhiling looked at Mrs. Mu fixedly, and snorted lightly: "Grandmother......"

Old Madam Mu sighed lightly, "Sister Ling, don't say anything, get a good night's sleep." ”

She looked up at Xiao Yuning, her eyes were not as cold as before, with some guilt, and asked softly, "Have you called Imperial Doctor Zhang to come and see it?" ”

Xiao Yuning gritted her teeth, finally endured the anger in her heart, and said, "Back to my mother, just left, Sister Ling is fine." It's just that this kid suffered, he just got a wheal yesterday, and he fell into the water again today. ”

Xiao Yuning continued: "Mother, today's matter, forgive the child for his courage. Sister Shu somehow, she was so disgusted with Sister Ling, she was willing to force her to a dead end, and the child dared to ask to go back to her parents' house for a while. ”

Looking at Xiao Yuning's aggrieved appearance, Old Madam Mu's face stiffened, and she said unhappily: "What are you going back to your parents' house?" Could it be that our Mu family treats your mother and daughter badly, I will definitely find out about this matter, and I will not let your mother and son be wronged. ”

After finishing speaking, he made a face to Mu Zongze, Mu Zongze wiped away the gloom on his face, and held Xiao Yuning in his arms, but did not speak.

Old Madam Mu's face was a little unbearable, this time she was afraid that even the third child would be cold. But no matter what, she must not let Xiao Yuning's mother and daughter go back to their parents' house.

Xiao Yuning is the righteous daughter of Prince Xin, and her so-called maiden family is something that the Mu family can't mess with. Not to mention that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, just say that Prince Xin's love for Xiao Yuning and Mu Zhiling will definitely not let Sister Shu go lightly.

And Prince Xin is the emperor's own uncle, deeply respected by the emperor, if he has a dislike for the Mu family, I am afraid that the Mu family will be difficult in the future.

Old Madam Mu returned to Yulanzhai with a pale face, and Mu Zhishu had been kneeling in the inner hall for a long time. Old Madam Mu ordered someone to carry Old Man Mu out, gathered a large family, more than a dozen pairs of eyes, and looked at Mu Zhishu in unison.

After Xiao Yuning saw that Mu Zhiling's body was fine, she also rushed over.

The atmosphere was so dreary that no one dared to speak for a while.

After a long time, Old Madam Mu sharply questioned Mei Xiang, who was kneeling beside Mu Zhishu, and said, "Mei Xiang, you tell the truth one by one. ”

Mei Xiang explained what happened tremblingly, and then said: "Old lady, it's all to blame on the slave maid, if the slave maid can hurry up and follow closely behind the second lady, there will be no such thing." Please ask the old lady to punish the old slave, and the old slave is willing to be punished. ”

Mei Xiang watched Mu Zhishu grow up since she was a child, and her love for Mu Zhishu was overflowing, and now that something like this happened, she had to tell the truth, but she never wanted to see the second miss punished, and she just hoped that she would take all the blame.

Old Madam Mu asked Mu Zhishu in a deep voice, "Sister Shu, you pushed Sister Ling into the water?" ”

Tears were like beads that had fallen off, hazy Mu Zhishu's sight, and she swallowed: "Grandmother, my grandson doesn't know, it's just that the fifth sister is pulling her grandson, and the grandson just wants to push her hand away, and the grandson doesn't want to push the fifth sister into the water." ”

Such a pitiful appearance with tears in her eyes softened the heart of the fourth lady Jiang on the side, and Jiang bent down and said to Mrs. Mu: "Mother, Sister Shu is just careless, don't you think Sister Ling is fine?" There's no need to be upset about this. ”

Old Madam Mu suddenly shouted: "Accidental? Is this called carelessness in case of human death? ”

Jiang shrunk his neck, stepped back, glanced at Xiao Yuning quickly, and said no more.

Old Madam Mu raised her eyes to look at Xiao Yuning's red and swollen eyes, and when she saw Mu Zhishu kneeling on the ground, she was disappointed in her heart. If she talks about yesterday's events, she is reluctant to believe that Sister Shu did it, but today's facts are in front of her. Once can be considered innocent, it can be a coincidence, but what about twice?

And Mrs. Mu was very disgusted with this kind of family discord, so she said coldly: "Sister Shu'er acted recklessly, and did not treat her sister well, and acted perversely, today I will punish you to go to Jingguang Temple to cultivate your heart for half a year, and punish you for copying the female virtue and female precepts one hundred times." ”

When Mei Xiang heard this, she panicked and said loudly: "Don't the old lady!" The old slave is willing to be punished on behalf of the second lady. ”

A place like Jingguang Temple is deserted all year round, how can the second lady stand it when she goes to such a place?

Old Madam Mu slapped the table heavily, "You are indispensable, deduct Mei Xiang's money for a year, and go to Jingguang Temple with Sister Shu, Chunping, you go and prepare the horses, and let them set off immediately." ”

Chunping glanced at Mei Xiang, his eyes were a little complicated, but he saluted and left.

Seeing that Xiao Yuning didn't say anything, Mrs. Mu waved her hand to let everyone disperse, sat on the pear wood carved chair by herself, glanced at Old Man Mu who was staring at him but couldn't speak, and sighed.

Sister Shu'er's usual gentle appearance, why did she suddenly become like this, or did she mislook at her before?
