"Madame, Jingjing didn't do anything. Jingjing was wrongly accused. Jingjing never did anything against big sister." Nalan Jingjing continued to wail and complain, not forgetting to maintain her dignified appearance.

Nalan Youyou, who was sitting at the side, thought of her newborn baby and her heart went cold. Nalan Jingjing, you didn't do anything bad to me, because once you do that, I'll die for sure! I really don't know how I trusted you in my previous life. However, that is already the past. I can see through your beast like face now.

"Hmph, what Second Sister said is true. You've clearly been thinking about elder sister's position as a direct descendant for a long time. The way you looked at her just now was so resentful." Nalan Yanwan did not believe Nalan Jingjing's words at all. Her mouth opened and closed rapidly as a string of words poured out like a string of cannons.

After Nalan Yanwan had finished speaking, Nalan Youyou began to laugh. She had thought that Nalan Yanwan had some kind of new and explosive news. However, when she heard it now, she did not feel any new or exciting news at all. Nalan Youyou knew about these things ever since she was reborn. Not to mention trying to ascend the throne, even if he wanted her life, she wouldn't feel fresh about it.

Zhuang Huaijin and Nalan Jingjing heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. They thought that they had discovered the conspiracy, but now that they heard it, it turned out that it was just a conjecture.

"Nalan Yanwan, how can you accuse Second Sister so wrongly? Your relationship with big sister has always been good. Are you trying to sow discord?" Zhuang Huaijin's heart relaxed. Her face sank as she slammed the table and shouted.

How could Nalan Yanwan be willing to commit such a crime? She began to argue, "Second Wife, Second Sister is your biological daughter, so of course you have to help her. How is it like me? I am just a daughter of an aunt, so naturally, I don't have the right to talk. "

After Nalan Yanwan finished her sentence, a lady in a long plum dress was so frightened that she quickly kneeled down before the madame. "Madam, I was the one who failed to teach you. I asked Third Miss to speak her mind and ask for your punishment."

"Second Miss and Eldest Miss have always been on good terms. The two of them are inseparable. Third Miss's words now are a bit too much." Zhuang Huaijin didn't say anything. In the past, Nalan Youyou didn't know that Nalan Jingjing had such a vicious side to her and had always had a close relationship with her.

If Nalan Youyou had not been a reincarnated person, she would never have thought that Nalan Jingjing, who had followed him like a shadow since she was young, would be so vicious.

"Hmph, Aunt Zhang really can't teach me well!" "The old mistress' expression was unpleasant as she snorted coldly. Her attitude was not friendly at all." Third girl, you are Third Miss from my Nalan Mansion. Your every word, action, and action represents the image and reputation of my Nalan Mansion. "

At this point, the madame's expression turned serious again. Aunt Zhang shrank her head, not daring to make a sound. His body trembled like a sieve.

"Look at you right now, you should have the image of a woman all day long! Now they were actually here to sow discord. There really was no rule! I have to do it three hundred times. I can't leave the Pure Heart Pavilion unless I finish copying all the women. "

In short, Nalan Yanwan's result was doomed!

"Madame, what Yanwan said is right. This is all true, Madame." Nalan Yanwan didn't want to give up, so she threw herself in front of the madame and explained urgently.

"Nanny Gui, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and invite Third Miss away." Zhuang Huaijin did not want Nalan Yanwan to stay here any longer. She did not want Nalan Yanwan to continue spouting nonsense and tell them everything that she knew. When the time came, it would not end well.

Nalan Yanwan had no choice but to give in to Nanny Gui's power. After being invited back to her own room, she wouldn't need to come out unless she had copied it three hundred times.

"Humph!" The madame was quite infuriated by Nalan Yanwan, and Nalan Jingjing dared not speak out against her so as to avoid provoking her.

Nalan Youyou knew that now was the time for her to appear.

The corners of Nalan Youyou's mouth curled up into a slight smile as she said to her husband, "Grandma, Third Sister is young and impolite. Please don't be angry anymore." As she spoke, Nalan Youyou took off a dark green bracelet and respectfully presented it to the madame.

This bracelet was given to him by Nalan Peiyi on Nalan Youyou's birthday. The jade green was made from a piece of superior emerald material.

Looking at the green bracelet, the old mistress beamed like a flower.

This Nalan Youyou was very considerate. Only Nalan Youyou would think of such a good item.

Seeing that the madame's expression had improved, Nalan Youyou smiled sweetly as she squatted in front of the madame. "Grandmother, please don't get angry over these things. It wouldn't be worth it if your body was hurt by it." As she spoke, Nalan Youyou extended her hand to comfort the madame.

The more the madame looked at Nalan Youyou, the more she liked her and the more she liked her. Her old face was beaming like a flower.

"As expected of the big girl." The old mistress ignored Nalan Jingjing, who was still kneeling in front of her, and kept stroking Nalan Youyou's hair happily.

Nalan Jingjing knelt alone before him with her head lowered, resentful but she dared not raise it, afraid that her displeasure would be noticed by the madame.

"Grandmother, Second Sister has no intention either. Grandmother, please allow Second Sister to get up." Nalan Youyou looked at Nalan Jingjing kneeling beside her with a cold gaze. She felt an indescribable happiness in her heart.

Seeing that it was almost time, he started to plead on behalf of Nalan Jingjing.

"Mm. Second girl, then get up. Don't kneel." Only then did the Countess give Nalan Jingjing a glance. With a displeased expression, she said, "Second Girl, you're also my Nalan Mansion's daughter. Get out, don't embarrass your Nalan Mansion. Learn more about etiquette from your big sister."

"Yes."

Nalan Jingjing gritted her teeth as she tried her best to hold back the displeasure in her heart. She pulled out a cute look that made Nalan Youyou want to tear her hypocritical face apart.

Nalan Youyou had one of her hands hidden in her sleeve, tightly holding onto it. A bloody wound had been forcefully opened on her palm.

Nalan Jingjing didn't notice the hatred in Nalan Youyou's body. She obediently bowed down and sat down beside Zhuang Huaijin, suppressing the hatred in her heart as she sat quietly to the side.

Zhuang Huaijin had also noticed the displeasure in Nalan Jingjing's heart. She reached out her hand and patted the back of Nalan Jingjing's hand, reassuring her.

Seeing this, Nalan Youyou still knelt before the madame, raising her head and smiling sweetly. "Grandmother, I wonder if Grandmother has any instructions for us to come here?"

The old mistress looked at the well-behaved Nalan Youyou and smiled lovingly. "Today, I've called you all here for a few things."

"Please speak, madame." Nalan Youyou didn't say anything. She just squatted in front of the madame and looked at her with a smile. Zhuang Huaijin sat up straight and said to the old lady.

The old lady nodded, glanced around at the few people seated, and said slowly, "I've already been away from home for more than a month, and Huaijin has taken care of the matters within the Nalan Mansion. In a few days, the empress dowager's birthday will come. For this matter, my wife, please prepare some things for the old master. "

"Yes, my wife understands." Zhuang Huaijin stood up, saluted, and returned to her seat.

Seeing this, the madame spoke again, "Tomorrow, the old master will return."

"Old master is coming back?!" As soon as the madame finished speaking, all the people below her became excited. The old master had already left home for some time and they had not seen him for a long time. Now, the old master was finally coming back.

"Not bad, you'll be back tomorrow. Since the old master is out on a business trip and has stayed out all night, he definitely won't be able to eat well. Ling Yu, you handle this. "

"Yes."

Just as the old mistress finished speaking, a young woman in a long blue dress excitedly took a few steps forward and bowed. She had an excited smile on her face, as if this was an extraordinary honor.

Nalan Youyou glanced at the woman. This was the third concubine that her father had married. She was a direct descendant of a small family called Ling Yu.

But compared to Nalan Mansion, her family was still insufficient. Being able to enter Nalan Mansion and become a concubine was already a blessing she gained from her previous life.

However, after reaching Nalan Mansion, this Ling Yu had carried a child for three consecutive times and in the end, all of them fell.

In the past, Nalan Youyou didn't think too much about it. She just thought that it was fated that she shouldn't have children. But now that she thought about it, this probably had something to do with Zhuang Huaijin and Nalan Jingjing.

Nalan Youyou lowered her gaze and suppressed her emotions. She squatted down obediently beside an old mistress and tapped her leg softly.

"Yes, the reason I called you here today is because of this matter." "Also, during this period of time, prepare some new clothes for everyone in the estate. Even if we don't enter the palace for the empress dowager's birthday, we can't be careless."

"Yes." Zhuang Huaijin was a bit unhappy. Rather than preparing some gift for Nalan Peiyi, she was more inclined to prepare a banquet for Nalan Peiyi.

However, the madame had already spoken. She had no choice but to resign herself to her fate.

Zhuang Huaijin gritted her teeth in anger when she saw the provocative look in Ling Yu's eyes.

Nalan Youyou turned a blind eye and smiled at her husband. "Grandmother, when will father be back tomorrow?"

"About noon." The madame felt like she had drunk honey as she touched the smooth jadeite on her wrist. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it and the more she liked it. Her attitude towards Nalan Youyou was much better.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Nalan Youyou smiled sweetly and said, "Grandmother, your granddaughter wants to go out for a while and choose a great gift to welcome father with."

"It's rare for Youyou to be so filial, you can go now." Be careful along the way. Remember to bring a servant. " The madame did not stop him. She would never stop someone who was filial enough.
