Qin Yi could not stand his little daughter acting coquettishly.
Just when he was thinking about how to deal with this matter, he turned around and saw Qin Jiaoxi's horribly scarred face, and he suddenly felt unhappy.
This eldest daughter looks less and less like him as she grows older, and even her temperament is completely different.
Nowadays, only a pair of intact eyebrows and eyes are left on that face, which looks more and more unfamiliar.
"Jiaoxi, tell me the truth, did you intentionally take off Yue'er's colored hairpin?"
Mrs. Qin, who came in a hurry after hearing the news, happened to hear these words and saw the broken glass hairpin, and her face instantly darkened.
"Qin Jiaoxi, it's just that you don't want to give Yue'er the brocade that the Queen Mother gave you, but you actually bumped into her and broke the glazed hairpin that the Queen Mother gave her. What are you worried about?"
Seeing her mother come to support her, Qin Jiaoyue immediately wrinkled her face and said pitifully: "Mom, don't be angry, sister, she is just angry at Yue'er for getting the engagement that should belong to her..."
The old lady who witnessed Qin Jiaoyue changing her face and calling a deer a horse said: "???"
Grandma Li was also so angry that she couldn't help it.
"Madam, this is not what you heard. The second young lady made it clear before that the eldest lady did not touch the corner of her clothes when she fell into the water..."
Mrs. Qin interrupted her coldly: "Oh? Did Grandma Li see it with her own eyes?"
The old lady also said coldly: "So, Jiaoyue, can you admit that you were the one who knocked your sister into the water? Otherwise, how could Jiaoxi, who is the same height as you, knock off the glazed hairpin you inserted in your bun?"
Qin Jiaoyue immediately retorted: "No! Sister, she slipped and fell into the water by herself!"
Mrs. Qin suddenly turned her head to look at Qin Jiaoxi, and then realized that her whole body was wet and dripping with water.
"I think Jiao Xi is fine, isn't it? But Yue'er's glazed hairpin is broken. What should I do if the Queen is blamed?"
Qin Jiaoxi shuddered, feeling that her heart was colder than her body.
His head felt dizzy, but he managed to speak one word at a time: "So mother, my sister knocked my daughter into the lotus pond and ruined the clothes the Queen Mother gave me. What should I do if the Queen Mother blames me?"
Mrs. Qin said without thinking: "Yue'er just said that you obviously slipped and fell into the water!"
Qin Jiaoxi said in a hoarse voice: "Since I slipped and fell into the water, how could I knock off Yue'er's hairpin?"
Mrs. Qin roared angrily: "You evil girl, you did something wrong and you dare to argue with your mother like this, come on!"
"Drag the eldest lady back to the courtyard and continue to confine her. She is not allowed to attend the palace banquet in the future. Also, carry all the rewards from the Queen Mother in her courtyard to the main courtyard and put them into the palace!"
Axiu, who reached out to support Qin Jiaoxi, widened her eyes in disbelief after hearing this.
"Mrs. Qin, is this the way you conduct yourself in the Qin family? Just confuse right and wrong, and you even have to confiscate all the eldest lady's personal belongings?"
"Miss Axiu, as an outsider, it's inconvenient for you to interfere in my Qin Mansion's housework, right?"
Axiu was so angry that she stepped forward and picked up Qin Jiaoxi without saying a word: "I'm sorry, miss, it was Axiu who was wrong. You really shouldn't have returned to this place that doesn't belong to you!"
After saying that, he hugged her and turned around to walk outside.
Mrs. Qin was stunned for two seconds and roared angrily: "Stop, stop!"
This time, the old lady said nothing, leaning on her crutches and watching indifferently.
Mrs. Qin glared at Qin Yi: "Husband, why are you still standing there? Do you want to watch your daughter being deceived by others and then taken away?"
Qin Yi came to his senses: "Someone, stop them both!"
