Chapter 864: Chapter 864: Broad-minded
Situ Qinger’s face stiffened for a mont and she quickly explained: “Grandmother, it happened so suddenly, Qinger didn’t react in ti and accidentally pushed you down. After all, it’s all my elder sister’s fault; she’s in charge now but she didn’t manage the signboard properly, allowing it to fall from above.”
In the end, she even spoke coquettishly, “Grandmother, really, Qinger is not to bla, such a reaction is human instinct.”
“Human instinct?”
“Yes, when I’m scared, my feet just automatically run. Qinger can’t control it, grandmother, Qinger knows she was wrong, please don’t be mad at Qinger.” Situ Qinger pouted and acted spoiled.
In the past, this trick had worked very well with the Old Madam.
Unfortunately, she saw the Old Madam’s tolerance as too broad.
In fact, the Old Madam who had narrowly escaped death was not so generous.
“You… you still justify yourself? In a critical mont, you ran away and left your grandmother behind. This is the first ti Xuexue t her grandmother, yet she knew to run over to protect her. And you? You’re still looking for excuses.” At this mont, the Old Madam felt resentful towards Situ Qinger, but her feelings towards Xuexue had sowhat changed.
Indeed, during the last mont of crisis, Xuexue stepped forward, trying to block the signboard from hitting her, although, in the end, the signboard didn’t hit them.
But, from this incident, the Old Madam still knew right from wrong.
“Co, Xuexue, co over to your grandmother.” The Old Madam, who previously disdained Xuexue, had completely changed her attitude now.
Hearing this, Xuexue stepped forward: “Grandmother, this kind of thing happened on the first day you returned, Xuexue feels very guilty.”
Before the Old Madam could speak, Situ Qinger imdiately interjected angrily: “It’s clearly your fault, of course you should feel guilty.”
“Shut your mouth, this has nothing to do with you, go stand aside.” The Old Madam glared at Situ Qinger, then affectionately took Xuexue’s arm and said gently: “Co back to the room with grandmother.”
The shocked Situ Zhi also ca to his senses at this mont and hastened to toddle along beside them, coquettishly calling out: “Grandmother, how could you forget about Zhizhi?”
“Oh dear! Look, grandmother has gone senile, I even forgot our precious grandson, co here to grandmother.” Saying this, she took one in each hand and walked into the mansion with them.
Situ Qinger stayed in place, her face filled with rage, and kicked the signboard in front of her fiercely, venting: “This damned piece of wood, it couldn’t have fallen earlier or later, it had to fall right when grandmother entered the house, I think, it was arranged by that little cheap person.”
“Second Sister, we should talk about evidence in everything, without proof, yelling like this, we will eventually suffer a loss.” Situ Dieer analyzed calmly.
“I’m just so angry. You tell , we finally hoped for grandmother to return and take charge, yet that little cheap person got the upper hand first.”
“Not to worry, grandmother likes her now but who knows, she might dislike her tomorrow!”
Situ Qinger looked up at Dieer, her third sister who always kept a low profile and never competed like Situ Yu, and she really liked her: “Third Sister, what do you an by that? I don’t understand.”
“Don’t we still have Zhizhi? Grandmother has always liked him, as long as he often speaks ill of our eldest sister in front of grandmother, I guess, grandmother won’t like her for long.”
“Right, how could I forget about Zhizhi!” Situ Qinger suddenly realized.
Situ Zhi is the only male in the General’s Mansion, the Old Madam would dislike anyone but him.
“Good that you understand, Second Sister. It’s grandmother’s first day back at the mansion, we have to behave well.”
“Yes, let’s hurry up and go back, don’t let that little cheap person speak ill of us.”
The two sisters chatted as they walked into the General’s Mansion.
