According to the practice of the Jiang family, dinner is served in the room of Jiang Hai, the head of the Jiang family.

In her previous life, Jiang Yingxue was most afraid of a family of three sitting together for dinner, but now, Jiang Yingxue only felt that even if she sat silently, she was happy, at least the two flesh-and-blood relatives in front of her were still alive and sound.

Just as Jiang Yingxue was pondering to herself, Xia Anran suddenly coughed softly, and the two people present looked up at her at the same time.

"Mother, but the food is not to your taste?" Jiang Yingxue asked suspiciously.

You must know that Xia Anran is a beautiful girl, walking, sitting and lying in a variety of manners, and when eating, she is even more strict with herself when eating, eating, sleeping, and silent, so she suddenly coughed lightly, which made the two people present quite concerned.

"Madam......" Jiang Hai just wanted to ask, but Xia Anran raised his hand holding the handkerchief and interrupted him.

"Master, I don't care what you do with the woman in the side courtyard, and I don't want to care. But Xue'er is my heart and liver that fell from my body, and I can't see her being wronged a little, I didn't want to pursue Xue'er's falling into the water today, but the concubine in the side courtyard who didn't know the height of the sky was still brazen to make trouble in my Xue'er's yard? I can't tolerate that. ”

Xia Anran's voice was very soft, but every word was loud, and she didn't look up at Jiang Hai from beginning to end when she spoke.

"What do you mean, ma'am? Yingyue, she is in trouble again? Jiang Hai, who was busy with official business all day, looked back and forth at the mother and daughter in front of him in confusion.

When Jiang Yingxue heard this, her eyes were slightly red and she looked at Xia Anran, and the lost mother's love made her heart feel soft and sour.

"I chose to tell you here because I want to save some face for each other, if you don't pursue that concubine this time, then don't blame me for holding up the master's shelf to teach her a lesson! That's all I say, sir, at your own discretion. ”

Xia Anran's words came to an end, and he used both grace and power, not only stating his position but also leaving a step for Jiang Hai.

After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and patted Jiang Yingxue lightly on the forehead, then got up and left the table.

"Yingxue, what the hell is going on?"

Jiang Hai looked at Jiang Yingxue a little helplessly, Aunt Rou's matter back then was a ghost for a while, and what he cared about most in his heart was Xia Anran, otherwise he wouldn't have insisted on having dinner together with her with a cold face for ten years.

"Since you asked, father, I also told the truth, when I was enjoying the flowers in the yard today, I was obviously standing at a certain distance from the water, but I was suddenly pushed behind me and fell into the lake, fortunately Liu Qingfeng rescued my daughter in time, otherwise I ......." Jiang Yingxue said while observing Jiang Hai's expression.

In her previous life, she was always unsure of what this father thought of her mother and Aunt Rou, and naturally she was not sure which one was more favored by Jiang Hai, whether she was or Jiang Yingyue.

"Pushed? This is supposed to be a fright after you fell into the water, right? Hearing this, Jiang Hai frowned, and looked at Jiang Yingxue quite embarrassed.

When Jiang Yingxue heard this, she smiled helplessly: "Since the father said so, it is because the daughter remembered it wrong." But when I woke up afterwards, Yingyue broke into my yard with someone, and scolded my life-saving benefactor Liu Qingfeng for almost doing it, but it was true. Originally, I didn't want to alarm my father for this little thing, after all, over the years, Yingyue has been so arrogant and domineering, and your father should have heard of it, right? ”

"This is something that the father has indeed heard of." Jiang Hai nodded.

"Father, Yingyue and I are both your daughters, you can't overstate your preference for anyone, it doesn't matter how much I have been wronged, but my mother is the main housewife you are marrying. Yingyue, a concubine, still dares to yell in my yard, can you imagine how my mother behaves in front of Aunt Rou? You know Yingyue's temperament, if she is allowed to be lawless like this again, what kind of trouble will really happen to the whole family? The daughter didn't dare to say more, but I just hope that your father will think twice. ”

Jiang Yingxue finished speaking softly, got up and blessed herself, and left the table after saluting.

After a while, Jiang Hai frowned.

He has always known Jiang Yingyue's domineering temperament, but he didn't want to meddle in the affairs of the back house, but now looking at Yingxue, who should have lived a comfortable and comfortable life as the eldest daughter, saying this to himself so tactfully and aggrievedly, Jiang Hai only felt ashamed of their mother and daughter, and ashamed of Jiang Yingxue.

Since then, he realized what a failed father he was, and just when Jiang Hai was about to ask someone to call Jiang Yingyue over for a good lesson, the little guy outside trotted in to spread the word.

"Master, the old lady has come over with the second lady." The little guy said.

"Please." Jiang Hai hurriedly stood up and walked to the outer room to greet him: "Mother, why did you come here suddenly?" ”

"I heard that your eldest lady is very powerful, today our Yue'er was just kind enough to visit her, but she was actually scolded by pointing her nose?"

Old Madam Jiang's pearwood cane slammed on the floor, and her silver hair was meticulously coiled in the back of her head as old-fashioned and serious as hers.

Jiang Yingyue flattened her mouth, supported Mrs. Jiang's hand and followed behind with a look of grievance, and raised her eyes to look at Jiang Hai with tears in her eyes.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, as soon as Jiang Hai saw her like this, she remembered Jiang Yingxue's appearance just now, which was obviously very aggrieved but still had to pretend to be strong, and the fire in her heart came up all of a sudden.

He pointed at Jiang Yingyue and roared, "Evil obstacles! Your father hasn't settled accounts with you yet, but you filed a lawsuit first? Get on my knees! ”

Jiang Yingyue was taken aback by him, and the whole person trembled and hid behind the old woman Jiang: "Grandma, save me, save me......"

"What do you do! That's how you teach your daughter as a father? Can you say such a thing casually? What a system! The old woman Jiang sat on the Taishi's chair, straightened her waist and stared at Jiang Hai.

"Mother, she doesn't know how to be respectful or inferior, the eldest sister is like a mother, she not only trespasses into the eldest sister's yard but also beats and scolds the guards! Penalties! Jiang Hai respectfully stood in front of Mrs. Jiang and said.

"It's just a guard, how else do you want to punish him? Isn't it possible for her to call the guard back? Old Madam Jiang said.

"Grandma, I didn't really hit him, I just scared him." Jiang Yingyue hurriedly explained.

"Shut up! You still want to quibble! Jiang Hai pointed at Jiang Yingyue angrily.

"Okay, such a small matter, you don't have to work so hard, just punish Yue'er to my room and think about it for two days!" It seems that Mrs. Jiang came here specifically for this matter, and asked Jiang Yingyue to think about it in her room, isn't it equivalent to no punishment?

"Mother's ......"

Jiang Hai originally wanted to say something, but he has always respected and filial piety to Mrs. Jiang, as long as it is not too much, he is mainly based on Mrs. Jiang's wishes.

So, in order not to make Mrs. Jiang unhappy, Jiang Hai could only nod helplessly and agree.
