Chapter 17: Turning things around

"Fourth sister, why did you wronged me, how can you believe what this maid who stole my mother's jewelry said, who knows what she has in mind to provoke the relationship between me and my eldest sister. Sister, you are the most just, don't you believe Wanru? As he spoke, he looked at Li Wanqing with admiring eyes.

However, Li Wanqing was standing behind the eldest lady obediently at this time, staring at the innocent and pitiful big eyes, her voice was gentle and crisp, "Second sister, it's not that the eldest sister doesn't want to believe you, but now your maid has admitted that the eldest sister just wants to take Qiao'er back, and if the younger sister really likes Qiao'er, she can come to Furong Garden to find her sister." ”

Li Lin felt relieved to see that his eldest daughter was so polite and sensible, and that she could be so tolerant of her sister who had made a mistake, and at this time he had already reached a conclusion on this matter in his heart.

Just as he was about to ask Li Wanru to hand over Qiao'er, he heard the voice of a little maid behind Li Wanqing in the courtyard, "Miss, isn't Xi'er in the arms of the eldest young master?" ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at Li Haoping, the eldest young master of the Li Mansion, who was holding Qiao'er at the gate of Qingfeng Garden. And Mo Yu had quietly returned to Li Wanru before attracting everyone's attention. The eldest lady was startled when she saw Li Haoping's appearance, this old lady Li Haoping is usually ruthless, and he usually acts in the old lady's Yixin Garden, and rarely walks around in the courtyards, how could he come to Qingfeng Garden today, besides, didn't Qiao'er let them hide in Qingfeng Garden, how could they be in Li Haoping's arms? The eldest lady had a bad conjecture in her heart.

"Haoping to my father, my mother to say goodbye." The handsome-faced young man said that he had made a standard greeting, and his voice was clean and clear, like the spring water in the mountains.

Li Lin looked at his son in front of him, who was only six years old but already behaved well, and was very pleased, especially when his son caught the seal when he caught Zhou, which gave him a long face, and the Li Mansion was thin, in addition to this eldest son, there were only a few daughters, and he still valued this son very much.

"Haoping, why are you here, why are you still holding your eldest sister's Qiao'er?" The eldest lady's tone at this time was a little doting, of course, she wished that Li Haoping would die, but she didn't have the courage to do so in front of Li Lin.

Li Wanru was sure that in front of the eldest lady's somewhat doting tone just now, Li Haoping seemed to tremble, but he was by no means frightened, he should have been disgusted by the eldest lady's face and behind his back, and he couldn't help but smile when he thought of this. But Li Haoping's eyes inadvertently swept to her, and when Li Wanru was about to look up, the sight just now had disappeared.

"The big sister's cat didn't know when it came to the small garden in the Yixin Garden this afternoon to enjoy the shade, although the grandmother usually doesn't like these cats and dogs, but the maid and the mother-in-law knew that it was the big sister's cat and didn't go out, let it be there. But just now I learned that the eldest sister thought that Qiao'er had lost the trouble to the third aunt, so my grandmother asked me to come over with the cat and talk about it, so as not to make the eldest sister angry with the second sister. The clear children's voice clearly narrated what had happened, and it was rare that there was no fluctuation in the voice. But his eyes glanced at Li Wanru as if inadvertently, and then lowered his head again.

Originally, the eldest lady wanted to use this incident to beat the third aunt, so that Li Lin would be disappointed in Li Wanru. originally thought that this third aunt didn't have any backer, so it was best to take care of it. I didn't expect Li Haoping to have anything to do with this matter, and he also moved out of the old lady, which made her very annoyed, for this matter, she had already abolished Miao Yin, the chess piece planted in Qingfeng Yuan, if it didn't succeed this time, it wouldn't be so easy next time.

This Li Haoping is really the kind of slut, she felt aggrieved when she thought of the second lady, and there can only be one lady in this Li Mansion. Before he died, he fought against himself everywhere, and when he died, he left an eldest son to disgust himself.

But now it is obvious that the old lady also knows about it, and the most painful thing for this old immortal is Li Haoping, and he will definitely believe this kid's words. She is in a dilemma now, but this Li Haoping has not been to Qingfeng Yuan much often, and I don't see how much he usually pays attention to Li Wanru, is it really a coincidence that he came this time, or does he want to help Li Wanru, a cheap species. Although she thought about it so much in her heart, it was actually just a matter of a few seconds, and now the people in the courtyard, including Li Lin, were waiting for her to say something.

"Ah-it turned out that I went to Yixin Garden, these maids and women wanted to come and look for it in the big garden, and they didn't go to other yards to ask, it seems that this Miaoyin, the minion, didn't know what An De was thinking, and wanted to make a gap between the eldest lady and the second girl deliberately provoke. Our Li Mansion doesn't want such a minion, so we should put a board and sell it. After speaking, he turned around and looked at Li Lin with inquiring eyes, seeing that there was no way to succeed today, the eldest lady could only deal with Miao Yin ruthlessly, showing the fairness and strictness of the lady in charge. She couldn't lose Li Lin's trust because of this incident.

Sure enough, Li Lin was still very satisfied with the eldest lady's disposition, thinking that she could treat everyone equally, and leave the Li Mansion to her to take care of, which was still very relieved. He nodded to the eldest lady.

When Miao Yin heard the punishment for her, her body immediately softened, and she knew that the slaves and maids who were sold had no good end, either they were sold to the outside of the border, or they were sold to the kiln to do those lowly jobs. She knew that she was completely given up by the eldest lady, at this time she suddenly thought that only the third aunt and Li Wanru could intercede for her, thinking of this, she quickly and desperately kowtowed in the direction of Li Wanru and the third aunt, "Third aunt, second miss, the slave maid knows that she is wrong, the slave maid is blinded by lard, and beg the third aunt to intercede for the slave maid, and the slave maid is willing to make cattle and horses for you and the second lady." ”

Li Wanru looked at Miao Yin, who was in tears in front of her, but there was no trace of sympathy in her heart, just because she had touched her bottom line, and having hardships was not a reason for you to harm others unscrupulously. Since she has chosen to betray, she must be prepared to accept the consciousness of punishment, she will not be such an indiscriminate person at this moment, and let them betray themselves again and again with their so-called tolerance.

The third aunt also hated Miao Yin very much at this time, you must know that all her expectations and sustenance in this Li Mansion are the second lady Li Wanru, although she is soft-hearted, she will never leave a white-eyed wolf who may hurt her daughter at any time by her side, although she knows that Miao Yin is just a scapegoat pushed out by the eldest lady, but she also knows that what she has obtained now is the best result.

"Concubine Xie Old Lady is the master of the second miss." The third aunt's soft face was full of gratitude, and she never mentioned the words of intercession for Miaoyin.

Li Wanru couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, she knew that the third aunt was not a person who knew how to fight for herself, and she was very soft-hearted, but for her, she never took a step back. In the past few years, the third aunt has made her feel the feeling of having a mother, and it is this feeling of being protected, unconsciously, it has become the most important fetters in her life.
