Chapter 31(1/2)

"Dad, you are here. Look, all the dirt on my body was caused by my eldest sister. Not only that, she also beat me and pushed me down the steps!"

Xi Chuyu, the evil one, complained first.

She deliberately limped up to Lord Shangshu and stretched out her crippled foot in front of Xi Qingyan.

"Dad, you see, my ankle was hit because my eldest sister fell and bumped it when she pushed me down the steps!"

"Master, you are finally back!"

When Mrs. Shangshu saw her husband reaching out to stop the servants who wanted to scold Xi Qingyan and Chuntao with a stick, she shouted in her heart that it was not good. She used to act like a little bird in front of her husband, but now, her husband saw her scolding her.

In the scene of making love, Mrs. Shangshu was worried that her husband would have strange thoughts about her, so she stepped forward and cried pitifully.

"Master, you have to make the decision for us two!"

"Today, our daughter just came back from the palace and was going to give her share of the reward to Qingyan, but Qingyan...she beat Chu Yu..."

"Master, look at our daughter's legs and her embarrassment. If the two sisters were just having a normal fight, I wouldn't come to Hanlianyuan to punish Qingyan, but this time Qingyan really did it.

It’s too much!”

"Chu Yu is her biological sister! If her sister really breaks her leg, she will become a cripple for the rest of her life!"

Mrs. Shangshu confuses right and wrong and directly portrays Xi Chuyu, who is looking for trouble, into a virtuous lady.

Xi Qingyan discovered that Mrs. Shangshu was the real master of telling lies.

"Madam, Xi Chuyu accidentally fell down from the four or five steps in front of my door. How come Madam said that I pushed her down?"

Xi Qingyan walked towards Madam Shangshu with a sneer, then deliberately leaned into Madam Shangshu's ear and spoke.

"If I really want to kill Xi Chuyu, I should push her down from the tall building. Only in that case can I ensure that Xi Chuyu really dies!"

"You...you...Xi Qingyan, you are so cruel!"

Mrs. Shangshu was directly frightened by Xi Qingyan's words, and she took several steps back.

She had thought that Xi Qingyan, who returned to Shangshu again, was different from before, but she did not expect that Xi Qingyan would now be so bold as to say these words in front of the master!

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Xi Chuyu didn't know what Xi Qingyan said. When she saw Mrs. Shangshu taking several steps back, because something had happened to her mother, she could only step forward to ask with concern.

But now her legs and feet are inconvenient, and every step she takes is in excruciating pain, and the maids who helped her just now are not around, so Xi Chuyu can only limp towards Madam Shangshu.

But he was limping and couldn't keep his balance, so if he wasn't careful, Xi Chuyu fell down.

Nowadays, there is not only mud but also rain on the grass in Hanlian Garden. Xi Chuyu, who was already in a mess, has completely become a "mud man".

Miss Xi Er made a fool of herself twice in one day in front of everyone, causing the servants of the Shangshu Mansion who were waiting on her side to laugh out loud.

"Why are you laughing! Is this young lady something you and others can laugh at?"

"Why are you just standing there? Help me up!"

Xi Chuyu became angry because of embarrassment. Master Xi, the minister on the side, frowned when he looked at Xi Chuyu who was covered in mud.

"Chu Yu, look at what you look like now? Whose daughter-in-law is as slovenly as you?"

"Why don't you hurry up and follow me back to your own yard!"

Lord Shangshu rarely accused Xi Qingyan indiscriminately, but instead accused Xi Chuyu. Everyone in the Shangshu Mansion was dumbfounded!

On weekdays, as long as the second Miss Xi cries and complains to Lord Shangshu, the eldest Miss Xi Qingyan will definitely be punished in the end.

But today, the second young lady cried and filed a lawsuit, but this trick no longer works!

"Dad, how can you say that to me? It's obvious that the person in the wrong is Xi Qingyan. You just don't punish her. You even reprimand your daughter!"

Xi Chuyu became increasingly dissatisfied with her father's practice of only scolding her.

"You also know that Xi Qingyan is your eldest sister! An eldest sister is like a mother. Although Qingyan has never educated you in normal times, it is time for her to educate you now!"

"Do you think your father is not clear about your domineering personality? Look at how much trouble you have caused during this time?"

"father!!"

Xi Chuyu felt that the sun must have risen from the west today. Otherwise, why would her father, who usually loved her, suddenly side with Xi Qingyan?

"What dad? I don't have an arrogant and domineering daughter like you. Listen to me. Take the second young lady back to her yard immediately. She is not allowed to go out for the next two days. If she disobeys me,

I broke her other leg!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Slave obeys!"

The sudden order from Master Xi Chu made everyone in the courtyard dumbfounded. However, when they came to their senses, they helped Xi Chuyu out of Hanheyuan in twos and threes.

Xi Chuyu was unwilling to leave just like that, but she saw the suggestive look in her mother's eyes, Mrs. Shangshu, so she had to swallow the bad breath reluctantly.

Chuntao looked at the second Miss Xi who was leaving and felt that the eldest daughter of her family was really amazing!

She originally thought that she would not be able to escape this punishment today, but she did not expect that the person who was criticized by the master in the end was the second young lady!

"Miss, will I feel sorry for you in the future? Are our good days coming?"

Chuntao walked to Xi Qingyan's side and asked Xi Qingyan in a low voice.

"You are overthinking, Chuntao, the good show is yet to come, just wait slowly, my father's belated fatherly love is conditional."

Xi Qingyan teased in a low voice.

In the past, Lord Shangshu Xi could ignore Xi Qingyan and allowed Madam Shangshu and her son to humiliate her for so many years. This fully shows that Lord Shangshu Xi never really cared about his eldest daughter Xi Qingyan.

There is a folk saying: If you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather.

And Mr. Xi is an out-and-out stepfather.

"Miss..."

When Chuntao heard what Xi Qingyan said, her face was filled with distress for a moment.

"Qingyan, your sister Chu Yu is not sensible, so don't be like her. You are the eldest lady of my Shangshu Mansion, so you should be more generous in your behavior."

After Master Xi dismissed his second daughter, he walked to Xi Qingyan.

"Father, why did you come to my yard today? If father only came because of the quarrel between Xi Chuyu and me, then you can leave with your wife now. My daughter is very tired now and wants to rest for a while.

I’m staying with my father.”

"..."

Master Xi was originally planning to speak out his concerned words before telling him the purpose of coming here today, but Xi Qingyan blocked all his next words when he opened his mouth.

For a moment, he felt a little dissatisfied with Xi Qingyan in front of him, and his brows wrinkled unconsciously.

"Qingyan, how can you talk to your father so unruly? Your father is the elder. Women obey their father at home and their husbands when they get married. Your cold attitude towards the master is really unfilial!"

"If my sister were still alive, she would definitely think that your daughter is unfilial!"

Mrs. Shangshu took advantage of every opportunity.

Today her daughter Xi Chuyu was wronged in this Hanlian Garden, so she would get it back from Xi Qingyan no matter what!

"If my mother is still alive, madam, do you think you are still qualified to point fingers at me here and confuse right and wrong?"

Xi Qingyan sneered and turned back.

"Xi Qingyan, what's your attitude? How can you talk to your elders like this?"

Lord Shangshu Xi originally wanted to feel unhappy, but when he heard Xi Qingyan's sarcastic remarks about remarrying his wife, he could no longer hold back the anger in his heart.

"Master, master, look, this is Xi Qingyan's true face!"

"She has become like this since she came back from home! I have always wanted to discipline her for my sister, but... But Qingyan always beats and scolds our mother and daughter!"

Seeing that her husband was supporting her, Mrs. Shangshu quickly cried and complained about her "grievance". She wished she could describe Xi Qingyan as a rude and uneducated country girl.

"Xi Qingyan, how did you become like this?"

Lord Shangshu was very angry for a moment when he saw his daughter being so helpless, while Xi Qingyan watched Madam Shangshu's performance with cold eyes.

"Dad, you hurriedly came to my courtyard right after court today, didn't you just want to scold me?"

When Xi Qingyan was about to get angry and take action, Xi Qingyan kindly reminded him.

"...!"

Lord Xi was just overwhelmed by anger, but when Xi Qingyan said this, he suddenly sobered up.

"Father...Father really has something to tell you. I won't pursue the mistakes you made today. We, father and daughter, will talk in the room!"

Master Xi's anger was completely extinguished in an instant, and Mrs. Shangshu beside him was stunned.

She dared to grit her teeth and bought a sky-high price pill today to save face for her daughter Xi Chuyu and the Shangshufu. Why is her husband still treating her so lukewarm?

Mrs. Shangshu noticed something was wrong here and followed her into Xi Qingyan's house.

"Just tell me if you have anything to do, father."

"Qingyan, can you... find the master of the Divine Doctor Valley?"

The words that Lord Shangshu had been holding back for a long time were finally able to be spoken to his face.
To be continued...
